Persons who reflect only on the deeds
of horror, y ith the recollection of which
the name Of the guilioline must ever be
associated, may be apt to regard as mon
ster the man who invented it. 1t is a
curious fact, however, that it was the de-
i Ivice of one of the most gentle and humane
,Iof men; and that its introduction was
solely prompted by desire Of diminish
Sing the severity of capital punishment. NJ
! IGuillotin, whose name was transferred tn
,Ihis invention, was physician at Paris
! and being appointed a member of the
National Assembly, attracted attention
: chiefly by great nildness of disposition.
r On the lst of December, 1889, he made a
= speech on the penal code, remarkable for
its philanthroI.ic views; and concluded by
e a proposal for substituting as less cruel
e than the halter, the machine which has Civ
e en- 10 his name an odious immortality. No
we had been assured, deplored more
bitterly than NJ. Guillotin. the fatal use
which was speedily made of his invention
lille is described by those who were bes
acquainted with him, as being clever
, nlacid, reserved man, of unblemished in
tegrity. When he perceived the course
which the revolution was taken, he with
, drew from all share in its direction. to tn
y practice of his profession, in which he be
~ came distinguished as much by his huma
r. nifty as his skill.

Women less courtpd than formerly.-A
few centuries ago women were scarcely
accessible, but shut up in houses and cas-
tiles, living retired from the hustle Of the
world. When they deigned to show
themselves. they were approached as di-
wines. A transient view of them often set
the heart on fire; and their smiles confer
red happiness, and raised an enthusiastic
irdour, of which at this period we can
hardly form an idea. BY degrees as man-
ners became more free, and the sexes mixed
together with less ceremony, women brgan

value as thev became objects of great Ia.
miliarity. Nor was this peculiar to the
times we are delineating; the same effect
aas and always will happen from the same
cause.
let the female sex therefore, learn theil
instructng lesson from it, that half the es
lteem and veneration we show them is ow
ling to their modesty and reserve, and tha
a contrary conduct may make the most en-
