However, a lonely old man like myself ean ,pardon many things inonewho seems to take pleasure in his society; though it sometimes does seem suspicious, that he should invariably drop in, as ,I am taking my meals. I am rather inclined to think that he has no bet ter opinion of me than the rest of his neigh bors; and being dissolute fellow himself, has set me down for one of •the same kid ney. - In making his visits,. he always pauses at the , door of the room, and throwingAis head "op one side, with one eye•partly dos ' ed . , seems ,engaged in calculating my height' 'in feet and inches, after.. which he stalks solemnly across the room, and seats 'WWI - directly in-front of me, waiting to be noticed: • ; . , - The other a 4 equaintance of whom I spoke .is a bright faced little boy, about ten years of age, whoillrapite of the terrors of the dwelling, breaknin upon my sOlitude; and during the short ; time that he remains here, the whole 'place assumes an• air of 'cheer-. fulness.
