M tai - giltrt alt. From nu Englif SMUGGLED RELATIONS. When I was a child„ I remember to have had my cars boxed for informing a lady•visi tor who made a morning call at our house, that a certain ornamental object on the table which was covered with marblo, 'wasn't mar ble.' 'Years of reflection upon this injury have fully oath-fled me that the honest object in question never imposed upon any body; further, that my honored patents, though both of, sanguine ti 7 mparament, never can have conce'ved it possible that It might, could, should, would, or did, impose upon anybody. Yet I have no doubt that 1 had my ears box- cd for violating a tacit compliet in the family and among the family visitors, to blind the stubborn fact of the marbled paper, and agree upon a fictiotif real nurblC Long utter // this, when my cars had been past boxing for a quarter of a century, I knew a man With it cork leg. That ho had a cm k leg—or, at all evenn;, that he was at 1111111CIISe pains to take about with him a leg which was not his own leg, or a real lcg—was so plain and obvious a circumstance, that the wheit universe might have made affidavit of it. Stilt it was always understood that his cork leg was to he regaided as a leg of flesh and blood , and even that the very sulject of colt in the abstract was to be avoided in the wearer's society. !awe hnd my share of going nbout the teotld; uherever I have been, 1 hate found the marbled purer and the co di kg. I hate found them in ninny forms, but, of all the Protean shapes, nt once the commonest and and strangest has been—Smluggled llcln t ions. I was on intimate terms for many, many years with my late lamented friend, Cogs font, of the great Greek house of Cogsferd Brothers end Cogsford. I was his executor. 1 l a b e eo he hail no secrets from me but one—his:poth er. That the agreeable old lady who kept his house for him was his mother, must be his mother, could not possibly be anybody but his mothe; was evident : not to me alone but to everybody who kaew him. She was not a refugee, she was not proscribed, she was nut hiding, there was no price put upon her venerable head ; she was invariably liked and and respected as it good humored. sensil , !e, cheerful old soul. Then why did Cogsford smuggle his another all the days of his life! 1 Lave, pot the slightest idea why. I cannot so much as say whether she had ever e6n tracted a second marriage, and her name was really Mrs. Bean : or whether that name was bestowed upoefier as part of the smuggling transaction. I only know that there she used to sit at one end of the tat le, the living im age in a cap of Cogsford at the other end, au 1 that Cogsford knew that I knew who she was, Yet, if I had been a custom house officer at Folkestun, anti Mr•s. Lean a I'renr•h dock that Cogsford was furtively briugitig from Paris in a hat-box, he could not have made her the subject of a more determined nod d o . liberate pretense. It was prolonged for years upon years, It survived the good old lady herself. Ono day I received an agitated note font Cogsford, entreating me to go to him innuediately 1 went, and found him weep iug, and in the greatest affliction. 'My dear friend,' said he, pressing my band, have lost Mrs. Bean. She is no more.' 1 ivent to the funeral with him. Ile was in the deepest grief. lle spoke of Mrs. Bean on the way hack as the lest of women. But even then he never hinted that Mrs. Bean was his ,mother; and the first and last acknowledg ment of the fact that I over had from him was in his last will, wherein he entreated 'his said dear friend and executor' to observe tlfat he requested to be buried beside his mother•-:-whom he tildn't even name, he was so perfectly confident that I had detected Mrs. Bean. I was once acquainted with another man who smuggled a brother. This contraband relative made mysterious appearances and disappearances, and knew strange things.-- He was.called John—simply John. I, have got into a a habit of believing that he must have been under a penalty to forfeit some weekly allowance if he ever claimed a sur name. Ile came to light in this way ;4 wan ted some inforMation respecting the remotest .of the Himalaya range of motuktains, and I applied to my friend Beating (a member of the Geographical Society, and learned on such point's) to advise me. After some considera tion, Beating said, in a half reluctant and constrained way, very unlike his usual frank manner,. that he 'thought he know a man,' 'who could tell 4me, of his own experience, what I - wanted to learn. An appointment was made for a c main evening at Beating's house. .1 arrive, it f st, and had not observed for more than five minutes that Beating WAS under a curious cloud, when hiti servant an nounced—in a hushed, and I may say unearth ly matmer--qdr. John.' A rather stiff and telabby person appeared, who called Beating by no name whatever (a singularity that I always observed whenever I saw them togeth er afterwards), and whose manner was curi ously divided betwqn familiarity and distance I found this man to have been over the Indies, and to possess an extraordinary fund of traveller's experience. It came from ttint drily at first, but he warmed, and it flowed freely until he happened to meet 13enting's eye. Then he subsided again, and (it op poured to me), felt himself, for some un• known reason, in danger of loosing that week ly allowance.: This happened a dozen tithes in a couple of hours, and not the least sari ous part of the matter was, that Denting him• self was always as much disconcerted as other man. It (lid not occur to me that night, that this was Benting's brother, fur I had known hint very well for years, and had always understood hint to have none. Neither can 1 now recall, nor, if I could, would It matter, by what degrees an 1 stages I arrived at the knowledge. However this may ho I knew it. But we always preserved the ile• that that I could have no suspicion that there was any sort of allini.ty between theta.

I was her godfather, you remember. Darling, fair•haired Emmy! Precious, blue-eyed child!' Tom burst into tears, and we both understoed that leceforth the fiction was etsablished between us that I had been quite familiar with Emmy by repu tation, through a series of years, Occasionally, smuggled relations are dis• covered by accident: just as those tubs may be, to which.' have referred.

Ono summer afternoon, my other half, walking in our immediate neighborhood, hap pened to perceive M,rs.

Eagerly pursu ing this discovery, she, that very afternoon tracked down an ancient gentleman in ono of the Commissioner's hats. Noxt day she came upon the trail of four stony mai ) duns, decora ted with artificial flowers out of the Commis sinner's epergne; and thus we dug up the Commissioner's frillier and mother and four sisters, who had been for Rome years secreted in lodgings round the corner and never enter ed the Commissioner's house save in the dawn of morning and sliudes of evening Prom that time forth, whenever my SWOIIIIOIII outdo a call ut the Commissioner's sh'e always listen• ell on the doorstep for any slight preliminary scuffling in the hull, and, hearing it, was de lighted to Etimorh,.The fluidly are here, and they :Ire hiding thew!' ~..

Newton Blowing Soap Bubbles. When Sir Isaac Newton changed his resi dence, and went to live at Leicester Place, his next door neighbor was a widow lady, who was much puzzled by the little she had ob served of the habits of the philosopher. One of the Fellows of the Royal Society of London called upon her one day, when, among other domestic news, she mentioned that some ono had come to reside in the adjoining house who she felt certain was a poor, crazy gentleman, 'because,' she continued, 'ho diverts himself in the oddest ways imaginable. Every morn ing when the sun shines so brightly that we aro obliged to draw the window-blinds, he takes his seat in front of a tub of soapsuds, and occupies himself for hours blowing soap bubbles through a common clay pipe, and in tently watches them. floating about till they burst. lie is doubtless now at his favorite amusement, she added; 'do come and look at him.' The gentleman smiled, and then went up stairs, when, after looking through the window late the adjoining Yard, he turned round and said, 'My dear madam, the per Son whom you suppose to be a poor lunatic is no other than the great Sir Isaac, Newton, studying the re fraction of light upcn the surface of a common soap bubble.' This anecdote serves as an excellent moral not to ridicule what we do not understand, but gently and industriously to gather wisdom from every circumstance around us. gEr.

MEDICAL ITEMS. The beneficial. effects of camphor as nn antidote to strychnine, is illustrated in a case reported by Dr. Tewkesbury, of Portland, Ale. It appears that a boy wits seized with convul sions, and it was ascertained that he had just eaten a biscuit picked up at the door of an enting house, that was in - fide for the - purpose of killing rats, and contained about one anti a half grains of strychnine. The bay's spasms were so severe that immediate death was in evitable, though all the usual remedies were resorted to. Camphor could not be introduced into the stomach on accountof the continued lock jaw. Accordingly, strung injections of eamphor were used, and the body immersed In a lolt camphor bath, and in a few hours the boy was comparatively well.

Mr. Richmond has presented a memoir to the Society of Medicine at Lyons, with the title, 'Fresh Living Blood as-'h Remedy-and Aliment.' He proposes to administer fresh and living blood in a large class of cases, and particularly where there is great exhaustion, privation of sleep, fatigue, grief or excess, where vegetable and mineral tonics have proved inellicient. He argues in favor of this plan from the fact that milk drawn directly from the mother by the infant is more whole some than when standing settle time out of its natural reservoir; from the fact that the BMWS, often reeommended, are better digested raw, end the same is often the case with oysters.-- .11esten Pont. -.
