ANECDOTE OF LOVE.

1t is not long since the following
extraordinary adventure is said to have
taken place in one Of the districts Of
Hungary =
A number Of workmen being en-
gagged in opening communication
between two mines, discovered the
body ola miner, apparently about 20
years of age, whose position showed
that he had fallen victim to one of
those accidents of frequent occur
renee in these subterraneouS excava'
tions.
The men remarked; that the body
seemed to have lost nothing Of its flcx-
ibilty and suppleness; and the state
of perfect preservation likewise, in
which it was found, attributed, by SCI
entic men, to the effect of the vitri-
oic water in the mine.
On being exposed to the air, the
body became stiff; but the features
and expression Of the face were not
changed. Still it could not be recog-
nized, although there was confused
recollection in the neighborhood res
pecting the time when the accident
occurred, reported through the village
to have been above half a century ago.
No farther inquiries, however, were
made, and they quietly proceeded to
inter the corpse according to the US
ual forms, when all at once there ap-
peared an old woman, fastening as
fast as her crutches would carry her
towards the spot. On hearing the cir
cumstancc, she had Quilted her bed,
where she had been confined during
many years, and insisted upon seeing
the features Of the deceased. Spite
of the wrinkles and fixed expression OF
her countcnancc, il betrayed uncom-
mon agitation and anxiety, mingled
with a singular air of satisfaction ;
which had in it something almost su-
pcrnatural and inspired.
She approached, and fixed her eyes
upon the features of the corpse, threw
aside the long hair that concealed part
of her forehead, then bursting into
tears and piercing cries, she exclaim.
ed, that she had found the body other
lover, to whom she was on the eve ol
being united sixty years before, when
he SO suddenly disappeared. When
her tears had ceased to flow, she re-

AFFECTING INCIDENT.

In the West Indies, tho children Of
slaves by Europeans, although approach
ing near to the color Of the fathers, are
still slaves, and so on for several gener.
atoms. Mark the consequence that
sometime result from this law =" AT the
hour Of sale Marley entered the vendue

Iy directed towards three genteel, we'll

caste denominated Mustees, thoir moth.

turned thanks to heaven for having
permitted her to behold once again
the object Of her first attachment, ad-
ding" Now, indeed, | shall die con-
tent"
The violence of her feelings was
more than her feeble frame could sup
port. The peasants wished TO carry
her home; but her mind seemed to
have broken the last links that bound
it to earth, and she was laid in the
same grave with him, from whom she
had been so long and strangely sepa-
rated.

II is O disadvantage, oven to those
women who keep the bes: company, that
il is unhappily almost established into a
system by the other sex, to postpone
every thing like instructive discourse till
the ladies' are Withdrawn; their retreat
serving as kind Of signal for the exer-
else Of intellect. And in the few cases
in which it happens that any important
discussion takes place in their presence,
they are for the most part considered as
having little interest in serious subjects.
Strong truths, whenever such happen to
be addressed to them, are either diluted
with hattery, or kept back in part, or
soitened to their taste; or if the ladies'
express wish for information on any
point, they are put offwith compliment
instead of reason; and are considered
as beings who are not expected to see
and to judge Of things as they really
exist.

reached her mothers arms, evinced the
pleasure of tho child; but when, in art
less accents, she Iisped tho name most
dear, the name Of mother, thrilling trans
port seized the parents heart; her eyes
beumed with augmented tenderness and
pressing the infant to her bosom, she inn
printed on her laughing cheek "long
sweet kiss" and with delight "irom its
mouth seemed honey to sip"
1t was the sight of Caroline engaged
in this delightful occupation, that drew
from the lips Of her husband the excla-
nation, "Her little world of happiness
is there" And who that ever Witnessed
a fond mother caressing her child, did
not acknowledge that it was sight
beautiful to behold. Innocence in infan-
cy always captivates. The little Mary
grow in strength and height, rejoicing in
the pleasures daily afforded and thought
less Of the coming morrow: but soon she
was TO leave these simple pleasures.
Human nature is liable to ills, and the
child sickened. Her fine blue eyes,
those tender orbs, lost their brightness,
and paleness ovorspreud tho check
whereon once bloomed tho roseat hue Of
health. The imploring look which the
child cast upon its mother-the out
stretched arms that begged for relief
the grOan, the convulsive sob, filled her
with unuttorable grief. The deepest So
licitude; the noiseless step. the wiling
ness and wish to suffer instead of the
infant; the tear that stood trembling in
her eye, as she leaned in speechless
silent agony over her child; the prayer
softly breathed to heaven, those tokens
Of sincere grief, showed how the moth
er's heart was riven. Her exertions to
save the little sufferer, though arduous,
and long, were unavailing.-Death had
marked her for his own.-The child had
struggled with pain during the night,
and as the first streak Of light appeared
in the east, she was departing. The sun
was rising and his beams shone upon the
room in which Caroline sat with the infant
pillowed on her lap--a ray OF light fell
upon the countenance ofthe dying Mary.
She gently smiled, as if to reward her
mother for all her watchfulness, her
care, her love; and her eyes were clos
ed forever. The small rosebud ofbeau-
ty was transplanted to more congenial
climate, where it might bloom to eternal
freshness, and impart sweet fragrance to
the celestial plains. The now bereaved
mother-shall attempt to describe her
feelings? Oh! no, her grief is too sacred

HINTS ON CONVERSATION.

Ii is our wish to sec the conversation
Of we'll bred women rescued from vapld
common place, from uninteresting tattle,
from trite and hackneyed communica-
tions, from frivolous earnestness, from
false sensibility, from warm interest
about things of no moment, and an in
difference to topics the most important;
from a cold vanity, from the overflowings
Of an engaging flattery, and from all the
Fictitious manners of artificial inter-
course. We DO wish TO see tho time
passed in polished and intelligent socie-
ty, considered among the beneficial as
well as the pleasant portions Of our ex-
istence, and not consi gned over, as it
toe frequently is, to premcditated trilng,
or systematic unproftableness. Let us
not, however, be misunderstood; it is not
meant to prescribe that women should
affect to talk on lofty subjects, SO much
as to suggest that they should not bring
good sense, simplicity, and precision,
into those common subjects, of which,
after all, both the business and CONVEX
sation of mankind is in agreat measure
| Iiuuc up.
1t is too well known how much the
dread of imputed podantry keeps Oft any
thing that verges towards learned, and
the terror Of imputed enthusiasm slaves
off any thing that approaches to serious
conversation, so that the two topics
ahch peculiarly distinguish US, es ra-
tional and immortal beings, are by gen
eral consent in good degree banished
from the society OF rational and I'M
mortal creatures. But wo might almost
as consistently give up the comforts ol
fire because few persons have been
burnt, and the benefit of water because
some others have been drowned, as re-
lnquish the enjoyment Of intellectual
and the blessings of religious inter course
because the learned world has sometimes
been infested with pedants, and tho re-
ligious world with fanatics.
Ladies commonly bring into good
company minds already too much relax.
ed by petty pursuits, rather than over
strained by intense applications; the it,
tlencss of the employmcnts in which they
are usually engaged, doesnot so exhaust
their spirits az to make them stand IL
need Of that relaxation from company
) which severe application or overwhelm
ing business makes requisite for stu.
dious or public mon. The due consid
Grafton Of this circumstance might serve
to bring the sexes more nearly on love
in society, and each might meet the
other half way; for that degree of lively
and easy conversation, which is a ne
cessary refreshmsnt to tho learned ant
the busy, would not decrease in pleas
antness by being made OF so rational ,
cast as would yot somewhat raise tht
minds Of women, who commonly seel
society asa scene ofploasure, as a refuge
from intense thought or exhaustinl

have already fulfilled tho highest duties

affairs were found in 50 embarrassed

quence was, these girls were brought to
the hammer 10 pay their fathers debts,
being held to be part Of his moveable
property. No otferers appeared, how
ever, and though they wero sevekal diff
fcrent times advertised, and exposed to
public auction, they would not sell.
Their gentee manners, liberal educa-
tion, and pleasing appearance would
have entitled them to comfortable mar
riages in Britain und it was the very
same reasons that prevented any one in
Jamaica from making purchase of

have cried shame, had they been put
to any laborious or even servile employ
ment, considering the very special situa-
ton in which they had been brought ua,

expected one in which they now stood.
