Talk with Smith about luck, and he will say to you:
" It's all nonsense. Bad luck is simply a man with his
hands in his breeches pockets, and • pipe in his mouth,
looking on to see how it will come out. Good luck is
man of pluck to meet difficulties, his sleeves rolled up,
and working to make it come out right. He rarely fails.
At least I never did." Smith is right. Attend to your
business, and you will have good luck.
WOMEN, HORSES, AND TRE2B.—England produces
three objects which are met with everywhere, but
which, in this island, are remarkable for their marvellous
beauty: the women, the trees, and ths horses. More-
over, every place which raises • race of horses worthy of
admiration is also peopled by pretty women. What is
the cause of the coincidence it is not easy to say; but
this strange correlation is not the less real. Georgia
rears the best horses in the Bast. La Carmargue, in the
neighbourhood of Arles, famous for its lovely girls,
preserves the blood of the Moorish ooursere in a state of
nature; the Andalusian maid attains her perfection of
form by the side of the symmetrical steeds of the Penin-
sula; at Mecklenburg you behold the purest blood of
Germany ; and, when • phalanx of Amason/ gallop along
the avenues of the London parks, the dazzled eye can-
not fix itself with indifference either on the ecuyere, or
the animal on which she is mounted. Let a young girl
draw up her horse beneath a lofty tree, and you will

ourred in the dining.room of the house while Burr lay
helpless, which may as well be related here. A gentle-
man called to engage board, found suitable rooms, and
said he would call in the afternoon to Ray whether he
would take them. He came to dinner. Addresehig
himself in an embarrassed, hesitating manner to the
landlady, he said he had just heard of • circumstance
which would deprive him of the pleasure he had anti-
cipated in residing under her roof. He understood
that Aaron Burr was • boarder in the house and he
really could not live in the same house with a man of
that character. The blood of all the Montroses was up in
11 moment. She rose from her chair, and said, with
flashing eye, and subdued intensity of tone : "You
have been misinformed, Sir. Col. Burr is not • boarder
in this house. He is my guest, Sir, my honoured guest!
Before any boarder in this house is served, Col. Burr is
served." Then, turning to a servant who was waiting
at the table, she said, in the manner of Napoleon order-
ing a column to attack: "Patrick, take away that
person's plate, and pen the door." Patrick obeyed,
and the' person " retired without venturing any fur-
ther observations. This brave lady could not, of course,
escape sharing, to some extent, the odium that sur-
rounded the name of the man whose last days her wit
and kindness cheered. "What do you think I've heard
this morning, Colonel 2" Said he to him on one occa-
sion. "They say I'm your daughter." "Well," said
he, "We don't care for that, do we 1" " Not a bit!"
was her reply. "But they say something else, Colo-
nel," she continued ; "they say I was your mistress."
" Do they, said he, "I don't think we care much for
that either, do we ? " "They must say what they
choose," she replied, the gallant soldier's daughter!
"But," said he, taking her hand in both his, and lifting
it to his lips, hie hand shaking with paralysis, " tell
you something they might say that would be true ! Le'
them say this of you: 'She gave the old man • home
when nobaly else would!"' He uttered these words
with an emphasis so tender and penetrating, that too
of his relatives who were present, one a member of the
bar, and the other a Judge, could not refrain from
tears.
