smoking was an ornament Of literature, a

built his castles in those warmer clouds,
and DIR. Aldrich his quadrongles. In

Smoking, of any sort, makes too sudden an
appeal to the connexion between their sem
stlve nerves and the stomach; produces
what the doctors call predigestop, and is
rebuked with punishment of the weaker
part, to wit, the brain. Bacon's might !
have been such in his old age, after all the |
service it had seen; but | wonder, on that
account, that he resorted to the jolly and
fox-hunting succedaneum Of beer. A |
walk would have been better. "Aiter STU

the blood gradually to motion, arrested as
1t has been with many thoughts, and con-
fused when they let it go. Now pipe is
a more gradual restorative than draught. |

and no thinking, so it is u preparer for |

Parting Mterpieic ipiM Emmett.

The evening before his death, while the
workmen were busy with the scaffold, a
Young lady was ushered into his dungeon.
Il was the girl whom he 30 fondly loved,
and who had now come TO bid him her g.
ternal farewell. He was leaning, in a
melancholy mood, against the window
frame of his PRISON, and the heavy clank-
ing of his irons, smote dsmally on her
heart. The interview was bitterly affect
ing, and melted even the callous soul of
the tailor. As for Emmett himself, he wept
and spoke little; but as he pressed his be-
loved in silence to his bosom, his counte-
nance betrayed his emotions. In low
volce half choked by anguish, he besought
her not to forget him: he reminded her OF
their former happiness, of the long-past
days Of their childhood, and concluded by
requesting her sometimes to visit the
scenes where their infancy was spent, and
though the world might repeat his name
with scorn, to cling to his memory with al
feciion. At this very instant, the even
ing bell pealed from the neighbourlng
church Emmett started at the sound
and as he felt that this was the last time
he should ever hear its dismal echoes, he
folded his beloved still closer to his heart,
and bent over her sinking form with eyes
streaming with affection. The turnkey
entered at the moment; ashamed OF his
weakness, he dashed the rising drop from
his eve, and frown again lowered on his
countenance. The man meanwhile ap-
proached, to tear the lady from his en-
braces. Overpowered by feelings, he
could make no resistance; but, as he
goomily released her from his hold, gave
her little miniature Of himself, and with
this parting token Of attachment, imprint
cd Ihe last kisses Of dying mar upon her
lips. On gaining the door, she turned
round. as if to gaze once more on the OBJ
jcct of her widowed love. He caught her
eye as she retired, 1t was but for mo-
mont; the dungeon door swung back upon
its hinges, and as it closed after her, in
formed him too surely, that they had met
for the last time on earth.
