COMpLIMENTING.

A fashionable female at Paris having
heard that Nicole, the celebrated mathe-
maiiciap, was much cherished in III
circles Of science, and anxious to te
thought the paironess of merit, sent him
such an invitation TO one of her parties,
that he could not refuse it. The ap-
sfracted geometrician, who had never be-
fore been present at an assembly of tho
kind, received the cIviiiies Of his fair
hostess with all the awkwardness and
confusion Of a man unacquainicd with the
irivOiities Of fashionable life. After
passing a very uncomfortable evening,
in answering the observations Of those
who addressed him, he prepared to take
leave. Wishing TO be very complimentary
he declared to the lady Of the house the
grateful sense he entertained ofthe high
honour she had conferred on him by
her generous invitation, polite regard,
and extraordinary civility. At length he
reached the climax Of his compliments,
by assuring her "ihat her lovely lille eyes
had made an impression which could
never be erased from his breast" Nicole
then retired, quite satisfied at The manner
IN Which he had acquitted himself but
a friend who accompanied him home,
whispered in his car as they were passing
to the staircase, that he had paid the lady
a very i'll compliment, by telling her that
her eyes wero little, for that little eyes
were universally understood by the whole
sexto be great defect. Nicole, morti-
fled to excess at the mistake he had thus
unconsciously made. and resolving TO
apologize to the lady whom he conceived
he must have offended, returned abrupt
ly to the company, and entreated her
with great humility to pardon the error
into which his confusion had betrayed
him, of imputing any thing like hnleness
to so high so elegant, so distinguished
character and concluded by saying,
Madam, | never beheld such fine large
eyes, such fine large lips, such fine large
hands,or so fine and large person alto
gethcr, in the whole course Of my life."

Continual prosperity hardcns the heart,
as continual sunshine does the earth but
when the one is softened by the tears OF
sorrow, and the other by genial showers,
they yield those fruits which the ncces-
sites ofman require Goodness is twice
blessed, in what it gives md what It re-
ceives. The peace or comfort we impart
to others is restored to our own bosoms,
by the satisfaction Of an approving con-
science, as the vapours which ascend
through the day, fall back at night re-
ircshing dcws upon the earth.

which engaged to land her at Hydra, in
return for the quantity Of jewels and gold
she had been able to reserve. She
reached the island in safety, where che
had now remained for nearly two years,
but, finding or fancying her various ben
efactors TO be weary Of their charge
che was now going to seek, even in the
land of her enemies, a relative who had
been living at Smyrna, but whom she
knew not if she should still find surviv-
ing or fallen by the sabre Of their COM
mon enemy.
Her tale was told with calm CON-
posure of oft-repeated and long con'om-
plated grief; she SIZED no tear in its re-
la,ion she scarcely heaved n sigh over
her sorrows; she seemed, young rs she
was, to have already made her alliance
with misery. She had now, she said,
but one hope left, and if that shouIa fail,
she had only death to look 10.
