FILIAL AFFECTION OF THE MOORS.--
A Portuguese surgeon was accosted one day by a young
Moor from the country, who, addressing him by the usual
appellation of foreign doctors in that place, requested bits
to give him some drogues to kill his father, and, as an in-
ducement, promised to pay him well. The surgeon was
a little surprised at first, as might be expected, and was
unable to answer immediately; but quickly recovering
himself, (for he knew the habits of the people well,) he
replied with sang froid equal to the Moor's, " Then you
don't live comfortably with your father, I suppose ?"._a
" Oh, nothing can be better," returned the Moor ; " he
has made much money, has married me well, and endowed
me with all his possessions; but he cannot work any
longer, he is so old, and he seems unwilling to die." The
,loctor, of course, appreciated the amiable philosophy of
the Moor's reasoning, and promised to give him what he
desired. He accordingly prepared a cordial potion, more
calculated to restore energy to the old man, than to take
it away. The Moor paid him we I and departed. About
eight days after he carne again, to say that his father was
out dead. " Not dead !" exclaimed the apothecary, in
well-feigned surprise, "he will die." He composed ac-
cordingly another draught, for which he received an
equal remuneration, and assured the Moor that it would
not tail in its effects. In fifteen days, however, the Moor
came again, complaining that his father thrived better
than ever. " Don't be discouraged," said the doctor,
who doubtless found these periodical visits by no means
unprofitable, " give him another potion, and I will exert
all my skill in its preparation." The Moor took it, but
returned no more. One day the surgeon met his young
uquaintance in the street, end inquired the success of the
remedy. "It was of no avail," he replied mournfully ;
"my father is in excellent health. God has preserved
hint from all our efforts ; there is no doubt that he is a
Marabout"—(a Saint).—Monthly Magazine.
IRELAND.—The summers in Ireland are the
most temperate in Europe—the winters the mildest--
cattle can remain unhoused from January to December—
yet there are more famines in it than in Siberia. The
people, naturally hardy, easily subsisted, and singularly
vigorous, laborious, and intelligent, when we consider their
opportunities, are yet one-eighth of them paupers, and
almost all restless, insubordinate, and embittered against
the laws and present system of Government. 'roe face of
Ireland is singularly picturesque, yet eminently adapted
for all purposes of commerce and communication; by its
genet al level no point ofl and is two thousand feet above
the plain, and no land in Europe abounds so much in
chains of lakes, in rivers flowing in different directions,
and in a perpetual supply of water. Ireland might be
made a country of water-communication through its whole
length and breadth ; yet it has but two canals of any
consequence, and these, too, in embarrassed circum-
stances. Ireland has more harbours for ships of the
largest size than the whole of Europe, the single western
coast containing for two hundred miles but a aucceseion
of the most magnificent ports. It is the nearest coast to
the western world—the course is direct from thence to
Portugal and Spain, to the Mediterranean, to the whole
navigation of the immense regions south of the Straits of
Gibraltar. The coast of Ireland is the first made by every
sail from India, Africa, and America. It has been ascer-
tained, that before a vessel from the port of London gets
out of soundings, a vessel from the west of Ireland can
reach America. Ireland seems, by its position, by its
western harbours, and by the facility of communication
over every part of its surface, to have been actually in-
tended as the /peat centre of intercourse between the old
world and the new. It is large, containing 32,301
square miles ; of all this space, the indenting by harbours,
arms of the sea, and river.,' mouths, are so reetneroue,
that there is not an acre above fifty miles from the sea.—
