This was all the explanation that she vouched. :She required, in turn, to be mode acquainted with rh e name of l,er companion, after giving her own. In a few minutes the captain began toleel somewhat More at his ease—in fact; ho began rather to like his position. lle had 'never sat so near to a pretty woman in his life; and he beizan to ask himself nliether, the proximity was stir pleasant for a few moments, a constant oompanionsliip_might-not-prov-e-as-agreeable, When her attention was engaged upon her po ny, he had an opportunity to study her fea tures.

The following account -is by 'Cie Rey. Mr Lacroix, an 'excellent missionary in-Caloutta: "Bees are •very numerous in' India—but they are not kept there. as they ; aro here, in hives: ftir they store up their honey in hollow trees in the foreids-and'jungles. But although it is difficult to enter these wooded pi:wetl— and those - who do so are in great fianker - from serpents and savage beasts, there are many pooimen who get their Hying by gathbring and selling the wild honey. Now, a few months before Mr. Lacroix wrote his letter, four of these riven, mutt' boy eleven.. years - old, went: 1 from one of the stations of the• London Ms sionarySociety, for this purpose. They got 1 into a boat, and rowed into an inlet of the rit- or, where the banks on each side were grown - ail - over with - high - trees and thick - 'sbrubs,- 1 which forms a part of what is called in India,', a jungle, When they came to therplace where ' they iniended .to land, the men fumped on shore, and left the boy totake care-of the boat, while they were gone ' after the honey. AS ' the tido was running then out the creek, in a little vvhile the - 'boat was left .. dry upon a bank-of. deep mud.- -The-situ-was Itot.and- the. place Was very siient, the boy sat quietly in, the boat, looking ablott him, and-wishing that the men would Come back ; when, lo! all . at. once, the pool-little fellow stared, and stared and' aborted as he saw a very lamp tiger stan ding on the hank just above the \byqt, Ilol.ing right down upon him wills his gnat L ,, rini; .eyes! You m )ay fancy how he 41 as "he be - old the savage beaSt fix. his - here? 'look 'upon him, and then crouch and ci.4l along tho ground, preparing to spring and-make him his prey. - ~ " The boy was very much frightened, no you may suppose, but ho had his wits about Lim; and therefore, Ivithout losing a moment, he crept under thg deck of the boat—for feral . tely - tite - b - mtlitqa dr , ilk. But no sooner had he entered his hiding place, then down came the tiger at one, great leap; and, such was the force with which he sprang, that one of hislegs.went.right through_the-deck,-and got jammed in between the planks, just over the pines where the boy lay. , - ' ... " Without-loss of time, and with wonderful presence of mind, iho little follow snatched hold of a rope which was lying near hint, and twisting it quickly 'wound the tiger's leg, he tied it firm, and held it fast. Not understan ding this>treatinent, and not having been train ed, like a dog, to give his paw to boy .er'inan, the ferocious creature grohned and tugged, - - and 'tried in every way to gethis - lcg . ont - ; but the boy knew well that the only chance of sa ving his own life was to keep .the rope firm, and therefore he held it es ho could. After twisting and turning, and pulling for a long time, without getting away from the boy, the tiger was quite cowed end. laid himself ',down on the•deck. New you may suppose y how the poor boy must have felt, as lie 'peeped up thro" the broken deck, and saw the red eyes and the' groat jaws of this fierce monster. . . . . "tut at last, the honey-gatherers having finished' their' work in the jungle, made their rlppearance upon the bank. Seeing •the tiger lying upon the deck of their heat, they at once concluded-that-he had-killedzind_gobbled_up, the boy, and that he was now getting a quiet nap after his dinner. They therefore raised a great shout, which so frightened the beast, that ho made one more desperate Aug; nnd as the boy this 'fling was" not quite so watchful es he had been before, the tiger jerked d eut his leg from the whole and leaped 'clean off the boat.- Fortunately, ho jumped right into the deep mud ; and as he was-lieundering _about -rind trying to get out of it, the four men rushed down upon YAM, and with .great sticks which they happened to have In their )iands, they labored inlay with all their might at his head, till they prat stunned and then killed him.

A. stranger of greatilistinction, and rho had. i 'played no inconsiderable part in the political drama of the day, has lately returned to 'earls, , where some years since he dwelt for a long time.. On his first visit to the capital, young and already famous, he married,into the aria tOcracy of the Faubourg St. Germain. The return of this personage has efeitcd the curi osity of the Parisian world, justified, it would seem, by former eccen tricities,and bin strange ness of character which may be traced in the anecdote new going the rounds of the talk mongers. The individual in question was net born and educated in the class in which he now finds himself placed by the right of per sonal merit. Instead of being - tempered by early education, his disposition, naturally vio lent, unrestrained and uncultivated, was ren dered almost ungovernable by the habits of a life mient amid camps. 'His- fortune, too, like his greatness, came to him lute; and it has been frequently remarked that those who ob tain riches by their own efforts, and in middle life, possess a lively, and powerful attachment for tho wealth which long privation and labo rious conquests have taught them immoderate ly to value. ' , At the time of this illustrious stranger's en trance into the world of Paris, .those shrewd observers, the envious and jealous of others prosperity,..remarked that his shining qualities wire darkened by two very great faults—ava ricennd brutality. The litter of these faults was a OW feature in his married life, and was the cause of poignant suffering to, a wife well born, brought up in the most polished society, I surrounded by- affectionate relatives, and ac customed-to all the refinements of aristocratic geod-breeding. It was not long before sho . fas made to feel thre L change; for the charac ter of her husband began to display itself in the' early days of her married life, and a shade of bitter to mingle with the sweetness of the honeymoon. Thislas sad, arid all the prom ised happhiesilndedEliwni. The union whiali I had commenced under the most favourable au spices, saw its clihrms destroyed by stormy ' half hours which became more and more fre quota.. It required all the rare virtue of the yodng wife not 'to succumb to the trials which humiliation, terror, injury and grief compelled- her lo undergo. .. One dry, after 'a scene. Of cohjefgliriiereffed . which had ogcurrßd_in the presence of many witnesses, the irastible husband entered , his own apartment, whither be was followed by an old ancl-triedfriend, who, by his devotion and uprightness, had earned the n right to speak plainly, a right he did not hesitate to exercise. Without , lieeding the still uniuppreased - raga, ho very freely copmented on .E.ie conduct sf his friend; Bo little becoming in a gentleman.— The culprit liatened 'with a gloomy' air, and when the lecture was terminated, said--; 'Your reproof is just; I deserve it; mid I reproach myself more bitterly than you have done; bitt what would yotiliave ? it is strong er than I am—it is out of my power to control it; I give way_ to.in assion,_l.l into a ra:e and forget myself. When it is over, lam a: Awned, despairing.; and yet all tits does not prevent me from recommei r atfa somotimes, even tlie very nest day. It is fatal.' • - .Yes, very - I have need of a good lesson, and will teach it to myself.' -And the culprit .for some minutes etrodo through the apartment with rapid steps and lowering brow, keeping silen - co, and twisting in his lingers a cigarette. The expression of his features, and the contraction of his fore head, betrayed the painful thoughts and sttrmy conflict which were going on within; then, his resolution taken, he opened a drawer hnd took from it a bank-hill for one thousand francs.— Ms friend looked on with astonishment, una ble to imagine what he was about to do. Ile rolled tip the bill; put it in the toper, and, lighted his cigar ,bithe flame of the precious paper. The friend, stupefied at tills strange action,:strange in a. man with whose excessive parsimony he was so well acquainted, 'rushed towards him. gLenvo me!' said the miser, with n ehokin EEO .But you aro mad.' • , No; I know what I am doing—l am pun ishing myself.; When the bill was notbiag but a small heap of,l4aok tallies, our horo-- - zand - ho - may - bo-oall , od ono after this action—added, hi a firm and 0 solemn voice— • '1 swear, on my honour, that each timo I I give Way to any brutality towards my wife, I ,will punish myself in the most sensitive part —my love of money.' This oath .was religiously kePt.

A young lady who lives in the Rue do Breda, Paris, lately sent for a physician. She was very ill, and needed immediate advice—but the medical gentleman, though ho had his time On hia hands, , (hoeing killed off hie last patient a day" r two before,) was obliged for appear ance sake, to be tardy.in his visit. The fe ver, meantime, had gained ground, and, when the doctor was announced, the patient was in deed very ill. fle entered—found a moptlore- ly cheek burning with a bedtic flush, well chis elled lips drying with foyer, and the head, to which these belonged, pillowed on taco and arched over with curtains of satin. Ills heart was touched with remorse for his delay, and in a fit of contrition ho resolved to give her as little medicine as possible. Of course she was well in a few days, and the Doctor , called to pay his last visit and receive the fee 7 -due to Nature and his abstaininge. The lady received him In her . houdifir, and, advancing to meet him with the greatest cor diality, she said You have saved my lifej, „ For your trouble--kiss me on the-forehead!' Ho needed the fee in another coinage, but his gallantry was proMpt. He retired with his pay in his Merhory, consoling himself with the thought that ho had at least deserved hon ors from the Courtof Cupid. Not long after, a young gentleman, of gen teel address, called upon the Doctor. 'Sir,' said he, you. attended Madame in the Rue de Breda.. I call to pay your And to express, for.her, the for your care and skill.' ssiying, ho made a graceful bow, and depoli(ied One hundreddol lairs upon tho mant4l-piece: • Decidedly thought the Doctor, virtue is not merelylts own rei4tra. It pays besides. - The next morning, another gentleman-call ed: a bald. gentleman, with the moss' of the Legion of Honour in his button-hole, and ex pressing himself exceedingly grateful for the erre the Dectorhad taken of tho lady in the Itue de Breda, hantleU him fifteen geld liiedes for his fee,- and courteouslyretired. On the point of informing this gentleman that ho had been already paid, the Doctor had checked himself,'rememhering how possible it was that it might be indiscreet to enlightenthe bald man that the young man felt also respon sible for the lady's debts. - Two days after, an Englishman Called on the Doctor, and, expressing his gratitude for the cure of the lady in Breda street, handed fifteen guineas to the supposed unpaid, and bowed himself put. : This becomes embarrassing I the Doctor said to himself, and, moreover, it grows less and less discreet, apparently, to proclaim . to the last comer the payments - of his predecessor I must go and exphiin to the lady. 'Madam!' be said, as he'was shown into tho pretty. boudoir once more, ' a physician should - be as secret as.a father confessor; therefore I have Allowed myself to be astonished by two of your friends, witiout reply. Of course I seek not to know why more then ono of your -admirers-has-called-ort-tho-suraoL.errand4—but_ here are two superfluous payments, vhich, to say the least, belong more to yan , t,i).un to mc.' The lady looked, embarrassed, though evi dently not displeased to know that her-telling of the story of paying the Doctor with a kiss, had appealed, with equal force, to the gener osity and jtistiee of her threeallnairers covering her self-possession, however, she in sisted on the Doctor's retaining all the money that had been paid him.
