FATAL EFFECTS OF HAVING A GENTLEMAN
PATIENT.—.The unhappy Sceur Therese was convicted of
having staid away under false pretences, and moreover con-
fessed that she had so far forgotten her profession as to allow
her patient to address her in the language of a lover. Her
punishment was dreadful. She was taken back to the con-
vent and deprived of food for several days. Then, after being
severely scourged with rods, her nun's habit was stripped off
her, and with nothing but a sheet to protect her from the in-
clemency of the weather, she was turned out of the convent
at midnight, and left in the street. Poor Therese was never
heard of more. It is thought that the disgrace of her expul-
sion, added to all that she had suffered, so affected her mind,
that she either died of the consequences or put an end to her-
self.--A Summer in Germany.
