WINDOWS IN AISN'S BREASTS. t. Emroe,—The idea. though not new, of the e.t ohm little window in front 111 the human was lately started iu one of.our public journals.

It wauas i/i il/WS : I thought I had become prime 'Moister of a ge at and powerful nation. I gave a paled entertainment. The } arty was nututfOlig, and et cry one lumen, had, without •ing it, the little window above mentioned in front of his breast. I first observed two learned men, who were, to all appearance, on tray good .terms with each other, for they were inseparable during the whole etesting. One was on the eve of publishiete a new work. 4 cottipluureated him on .his production and ) sad to speak tatuural iy of it to the Xing. At iliat moment obsert et] a gently I,welling of his heart. The thing was perfectly natural, and it was wily what I expected ; but was not a little astonished to obseite a knot of contracting etuoiiuu to the heart of the usher. fits breathing was suspended, and .1 may almost say he appeared to be siiBed .by the success of bis friend. . . . Near *trlllood a matt on whom,' had nonferred the : greatest w bligations, who hoped that I would rends., hum still further acis of service, and who was cominuatly talking to nie of his gratitude. Now gratitude is the memory of the heart, and like the mental memory, may be expected to Jesse mime traces un the organ which 11 Affects. .So at least philosophers explain she natter. — Though far fruits suspecting the scot ttttt ents °fin) , friend, ,1 was pleased,witli this opportunity pf ascertaining that toy obligations had UllWCifilly.olt4Clll. .1 looked at his heart; bLt what wa4 my astonishment to find it was.iniotith as polished mirble•—My favours had not made the slightest lust sitssi 00 it. _ . A gentleman entered with ilia wife; their hearts were perfectly ,tranquil. A young officer appeared.—The heart dl one of the couple became agitated. It was nut the husband's. _ . . At this moment a foreign Ambassador was announced. r.acellenr! thrasight 1, 1 shall now have the key to all the Cabinets plEurope. But how was I disappointed 1 It was the most impenetrable heart that call be imagined .—an absolute labyrinth. I beheld nothing but folds above folds—a mass of intrignea and subterfuges. 1 turned, and perceived another heart, which 1 hoped 1 shadd be able to .comprehend .with less difficulty. It was light . and slippery, and continually in motion. 1 V.al curious to know whether it had ever received a wound ; it had received a thousand—but they were all so slight that scarcely a scar was visible. They appeared merely like the pricks of a pin. —Several gay *eittlemen however flattered themselves that they had riveted this heart, but they were deceived: ,Cupid was out of humour with it, and resolved to be revenged. .One of his arrows yet remained untried.--,lt wits a golden one, and golden arrows seldom miss their aim. The heart of the fait lady was pierced through and through. 1 u otte ‘ corpercif the drawing room sat a philosopher, who Wlls far from being displeased at the notice he Attracted. Philanthrophy (formerly we should have callettit humanity) was his whim. He thought of no shing bot charitable institutions, Lancasterian schools, and soup establishments fur the poor. A good action im which he did not participate gave him . pain. :1 looked through the little eihow: his heart was distended to the utmost, but like is a balloon, it was filled only with air. . . . . I detest hypocrites in morality, and coxcombs in vir tue ; but cold and insensible hearts please use as little. I had now one °film latter class before me. It was as ,stnooth and as hard as stone; and had never been mo sed by any generous sentiment. It was not the heart of a Jew of the Hebrew race (for they are no worse than other people, and do not deserve the insults that are directed against them.) but of a Christian Jew, a mo ne-lender, and 'contractor. jt may :naturally be supposed, that in so brilliant a party, some distinguished literary characters were pre sent, There was one author, with whose sentimental verses the company were delighted. lie was ap elegiac pet.. I promised myself much gratification in observ. mg of what elements his impassional, delicate, and tender heart, was composed. But I could discover malting remarkable. Indeed it cost me souse trouble to "end out whether ar not he really had a heart. I mood to another, who was not a writes of poetry, but who took upon himself to judge of the production of otherr He was a philologist and critic by profesi-ion. I observed on his heart only a few livid spots, like those which are produced by envy, add some drops of gall were emitted on every motion of the organ. ilut though -I was unfortunate enough to meat with so many Wrack hearts, it must be acknowledged that there were among the company some of a very opposite stop. One person in particular deeply excited my interest, and whose heart I was for some tone afraid to look at, lest it should not prose at amiable as I wished. She was a young lady, about 5-7 years of age, beautiful as an ato;el. and astuodest as she was beautiful. She had not yet utteted a word. what was my joy and astonish. th.z.nt Her liemt was the purest and most candid of any ouy present. It.scarcely appeared to throb yet it was evident, that when the young lady openediser mouth, it would fly to her lips. I watched the motion of her e ye, awl they at length met mine. I was young, for we SIM 4.1-kva)4 in our dreams. She blushed, and at that sgotnent an arrow, darting froml know out w bence, struck her heart. and intlicul,a deep wound. It was the tiro she ever received. Tile blood which flowed from it was like that,ofthe Goddess woutided by Diomede.

EAST INDlES.—Extract of a letter from au °th er e in the Camp IMO Organ (within 14 links), dated Marc]:, 1819: — Alter the close of the last camgaign we were kept out so long that we had no time or materials to cover our selves in, and consequently were exposed to the incle mency of ati.untisually severe and long continued .rainy season . ; our tents were scarcely dry fur three successive months. By the • the rains had ceased, in the beginning of November, 1818, as soon as the roads became passable we were again oat the move, and have since changed gtomid three diflerent times, in a south west direction. On the 26th of last month (April) we received milers by the same post, that our force was eventually to be cantoned where we then were, and the next day we were ordered to march to the Southward, near to Oriaein : this was a business of ten marches, by order of Sir J. Malcolm, who has left I ndore with forces belonging to that place, and crossed the Nerbuil , shah, to attack a . strong fort in the l)eckan, sailed Asset. Ghur, belongingto the Scindiah, in wbich, it is said, the Ex-Rajah of Nagpore is secreted, who lately made his escape from Colonel Adam's force, under convoy of the notedPindaree ChieftainCitetoo; the latter of whom, and his son, have since been taken. Our destination, therefore, is to be out until the fall of Asser Ghur ; or incase of emergency, perhaps to assist in the under taking." According to advices from Spain, received on Sa turday, the fever in Cadiz has so far disappeared, that it is considered no Ipnger formidable ; and the 15th.of the present month had been named as the day for the performance of Te Deum, and general thanksgiving for the deliverance of the city frnm,this signal calamit). The letters are dated the sth inst. the number of sick is given at 1,200, and the .deaths at 38, 40, and 31, for the 3 days preceeding. Seville is said to lie entirely free from the fever.
