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. Ile went to :11-exivo, this John—and ho went to AWAIIIII/I—std he went to rhina--and he died somewhere in Per , in-- and one day, when we went down to dilllll . l' at !tenting's I NVIIIII.I find 111111 in the dining roomy, already tainted Os if lie had been violating do allowance on the table cloth], and another day I would hear of hint being among scarlet pat rot , ' in the tropics; bat, I never Itoew ! 1 011, en In' ever dime ati3thing wrong, or whether he hail ever done an)thing right, lit It by 111 , went tibotil Ow world, or how.
