■
~ Tiia'owney of tho,watch was easily found, at
thC Vrhlch he constantly fro
cpierited. 1 Tire watch was seen, examined,
Closely cujtnparedw.lth the.Cardlnal’n, and pur
chased.' It was duly engraved, duly sent home,
duly paid for, and as duly placed in Tohbisi’s
pocket, ready for the trick of tricks which was
to close his 'Night at tho Vatican.
Pope ,Pics VII. w*s an enlightened man,
turpod a denf ear to. all hints that Toimixi’s
wonderihl effects were produced by sorcery.
He "occupied a lavgo arm-chair on a daos,
place# on tho. foreground. Near him were
placed the Cardinals, and behind them were
the different' prelates and dignitaries of the -
Church. As far as that Bight’s foata went,
the Pope sat simply like a wondering layman,
astonished at the skill of tho conjurer. The
evening passed off agreeably, for Tobsixi
never performed better, and ha nevor bad a
more wonder-3tricken audience.
“ Then,” (as Tonnm himself told the story,)
«to end It and by way of bouquet, I went on
to tho famous trick which I had contrived for
the occasion. Here, however, 1 had to en
counter many difficulties. The greatest of
these, without question, was to lufo the Cardi
nal do to give mo his watch, and that
without directly asking for it. To gain my
point, I had recourse to stratagem. On my ask
ing for a watch, many had been handed to me
—but I-had given them back, on the pretext,
more or less true, that, offering as they did no
peculiarity In shape; it would be difficult after- .
wards to identify the one chosen by mo. < If,
Messieurs, any oho among you,’ said I, ‘ has
,a rather large watch (the Cardinal’s had pre
cisely, this peculiarity,) and would entrust it
to me, I should accept it-willingly as tho one
fittest,for our experiment.’ ”
Tho Cardinal piqued himself on the size of
his watch, liaving-an idea that the works acted
more freely in a large case. Ho hesitated to
lend it to Toanrai, but did so, at tho special .
requost. of tho Pope, adding many cautions to
hnndio it with the utmost care. Tobbihi ex
amined and admired the watch, and asked
numerous questions about it, ■by way of
bouimeni —a word used by conjurers to denote
the preliminary talk which is to pass tho time
and put an audience oil' Us guard, by preoc
cupying its attention: Tobbini praised-the
Cardinal’s watch up to tho skies, expatiating
on its numerous good qualities. “ Soo!” said
lie, “ a first proof of them.” And with this
he lifted up the watch os high as his. face, and
lot it fall on the parquet. There was a cry of
fright on every sido. The Cardinal, pale and
trembling, got up. “ Sir!” said he, with 111-
rcstpjlncd anger, “ what you have done is an
extremely bod joke!” Tourini assured him
that this was only done to prove the perfection
of the watch, which would come hack to him
uninjured by the trials to which it would bo
subjected.
Tho beautiful Breguct, which tho Cardinal
believed to he unique, was destined for severer
ill usage- Tonnixi, not content with dashing
it down, stamped upon tho case, crushed it
into a shapeless mass of wheels, springs, and
broken hands. This he handed around, that
all might, ho suro it was tho Cardinal watch
of watches. AH this time, tho Cardinal’s
rago was at lever-heat. He had no small
cause for anger. His watch, about the iden.
tity of which tlicro could be no doubt, for ho
recognised his arms engravod insido tho case,
was utterly ruined, and, almost in tears, he
declared that it. had been unique, and never
could bo replaced.
Toßßist’s.nexi movo was to get tlio watch
tlio real Simon Pure, for it was his own
which was destroyed—into tho Pope’s pocket.
As long ns his Holiness remained seated, this
could not ho dono. An expedient had to be
found for gotting him out of his chair. ”Ton
niNi was so lucky us to find ono. Ho asked
for a brass pestle ■ and mortar, and ono was
brought up from tho kitchen, where it was an
implement of tlio emsinier. Placing it upon the
table, he cast into it the wrecks of tlio famous
Breguct, and began to pound them violently
with tho enormous pestlo. A slight detona
tion was suddenly heard, and a reddish flame
arose from the bottom of tho vessel, which
gave the scono the appearance of real magic.
Tonnisi, still pounding in tho mortar, with
great fury, leant ovov it, and protending to
look In, made exclamations of wonder to him
self at tho surprising tilings he pretended
there to see. Tlio spectators, consisting of
Cardinals and their attendants, were dying to j
know what he was Wondering at, but, out of
respect to tho Pope, no one ventured to rise.
At last, exolted by curiosity, the Pope ap
proached the table, followed by some others
of the audience. Tokulni was still pounding
away, and still oxclaiming. “ I do not know to
what X am to attribute tlio bewilderment I
foe),” Bald.hie Holiness, “ but really I cannot
see any thing!” either could that arch-in)-
i r iyvv
pqstor, ToEnim. Ho, however, was too'prn
dent to own: it,' and. begged'the Pope to
come round the table, next to Mmsolf—its the
boat point for seeing. ' This wasdone, And tho

[Correßpcndenoe of The Press.]
. Montreal,.Augn3t23,lBs9.
The religious bouses here, or rather such of them
as are open, aro always visited by strangers. ,1 be
lieve there are eight nunneries in And around this
city. I visited tho Blsok Nunnery, and tho Gray
Nunnery. At the Black Nunnery (called such from
the dress worn) I saw tho nuns discharging the du
ties of their qffioes of love to the sick, to tho infirm
and to the aged. At twelve o’olook M-> nil the
tourists in tbs city generally are to be foami m tho
principal chapel attached to the Gray Nunnery.
At that honr the stms enter the chapel in prooos-.
sion, They kneel in ,the body.of the obttroh r re
citing In coucert the office appropriate to the hour.
After remaining /ome time in silent meditation,
they arise and. retire. With strangers watching
them they appeared to he ehtiroly unconscious of
the fact, for not an eye, even for an instant, was
turned on the spectators.. After the nuns leave
tho ehapol, tbo r strangers generally pass through
the .establishment. Wo saw little sewing
whilo engaged in!] childish prattle. We saw boys
from two years up to twelve playing balL— some
playing with kites—and oil as happy as larks.; In
anothor room .we saw agod women sleeping in their'
choirs; others knitting, othors, carding wool. In
yet another room, old men engaged in suitable call
ings—some loitering about the-doors, and others,
entirely helpless, seated in chairs, which
were wheeled from place to place at tiio wish of the
patient.' During our visit we saw those in the latt
atogo of oxiatence, many of them very young, lying
In beds with ministorlng angels by their sides, con
soling them in tbeir alHiotions, and cheering them
on their ’-journey to Heaven. The rooms for.the
aged and the bed-ridden are so constructed that by
opening folding-doors*.; the chapel is exposed to
view, and they can thus i hear Mass.and Vespers
every day of ithelr lives; a consolation tq them of
the highest importance.' When any ono of the pa
tients dies, the body is decently and honorably in-'
terred, and it is beyond the risk of surgical vio
lence. The order, tho cleanliness, the‘quietude,
the pnre atmosphere, the comfort of the patients 1 *
the happy faces of tlio Sisters and the Nuns, all
tend to make the member of tho Catholic church
feel justly proud of these institutions, and tho Pro
testant gentleman willingly expresses his admira
tion. There are no alms houses in Canada. Tho
poor, the old, and all who need help, are taken
oaroof—not as if they were a harden, but as if they
were a blessing which Heaven had vouchsafed.
Each religious denomination takes care of its own.
Tho schools, seminaries, and 'colleges'in Canada
rank very high. In institutions in this city, chil
dren receive a first-rate education without, any
charge whatever. If thoir parents can afford it
they pay a dollar per month; An Irish conohman
who drove me around Mount Royal, told mo his
daughter, seven years of ago, can road and write
both English and French.
I have visited Methodist, Episcopal, Presbyte
rian, Unitarian and Catholic churches, and strange
as it may appear, they are all superior to those at
homo in architectural beauty and interior arrange
ments. Tho pews aro all largo and commodious,
each having a ledge on which to lean while kneel
ing, hooks for hats, shelves for books, umbrellas,
parasols, Ac. By-the-by, thqMothodist, tho Pres
byterian, tho'Baptlst, and I believe, all tho Protes
tant clergy here, woar. during Divine service, the
black robes worn alono by the Episcopal olorgy at
homo. Sinee'l have been in Canada I have seen
in villages, churches that would be an ornament to
any metropolis. St. Mary’s ChurCh, In a village
on the road around Mount Royal, is beautiful, and
once seen will never bo forgotten.
No Philadelphian should leave this city without
looking nt tho Court House.- It is an honor to Mon
treal. It is built of stone, and ocoupies about tho
same spacoasours. Itmuchrescmblostlio enstviow
of the Capitol at Washington. You approach the
entr&noo by ft lofty flight of stops, and ascend : td'
tho second story by splendid stair-cases; The
office of the clork of ono of the courts is largerthan
all of our law offices put together.' Everything is
systematized. Original papers aro hbro filed in
stead of copies, and are deposited in fire-proofs.
Tho papers belonging to each suit are enclosed in
leothor wrappers, and buckled. All papers aro
ufidor tho charge of an officer specially deputed for
tho parposo, and tho most rigid caro is taken of
them.'* The ‘court rooms aro fitted up with the
greatest taste. The Criminal Court has a coll im
mediately underneath tho dock, and when a oase
is called tho defendant is brought up from the cell.
The Law Library is decorated with paintings and
statuary, and looks like an immense drawing-room.
Suitable' apartments ore provided for the judges,
the juries, witnesses and lawyers. Justice is here
treated as a power In tho State. At home, judging
from the apartments we have provided for judges, ,
juries and witnesses, she is despised. -
The Victoria Bridge will, ia-tho course of two or
throe months, bo completed. It Is two mlleß long,
and when finished, will have cost seven millionj of
