confused, and not knowing exactly what to re-
ply, he endeavored to divert the attack by smp-
ly looking under the table, and ingenious'y
calling .spuss! puss!''
sWhat does he mean" inquired the Blue
Knight, looking bluer.
"He smells a rat, to be sure," whispered the
acute Grummel.
When they retired, Grummel addressed his
master in these words:
81 can tell which way the wind blows, your
Worship, as well as weather-cock. It's my
mind the Baron wishes to deprive US OF the
Lady Elvina.''
"Us?" repeated Sir Wilhelm.
| '.To be sure, when she's your vile VIII sne

I'm resolved on the match, for thereby you'll
get better half, and1 better quarters Two
things no less agreeable than essential to our
happiness
"Why, the whole garrison are in favor OF
1.-The alliance; therefore, pop the question

"What ,hen!''
Why, then, filially kick him out! and take
possession of the castle we have fairly won by
force of arms
"You forget he is Elvina's SIRE"
sWill not get a more agreeable sigher---ln
the shape of lover! But, 10! here comes the
comedy dame hcrself-l'll vanish"
And the sagacious Squire walked of, lcav-
ing the lovers 10 their own sweetdiscourse.
Although the Blue Knight and Elvina were
elegantly slenderin their personal proportions,
, the Baron declared in abruptan vulgar phrase
that 'they We're too thick.n a.

DANCING.

Not single text in the Old or New Iesta-
mont prohibits, or even indicates disapproba-
ton of dancing---af amusement which in all
AGES and countries, has been, and still is, so
UNIVERSAL that il might be deemed natural
propensity. Certain it is that dancing has
been encouraged by many wise and pious dl-
vines as the most unexceptionable relaxation
for youth. The bali room keeps numbers Of
young men from the gambling tables, and from
convivial excuses, and brings both sexes to-
gether under circumstances the most favorable
to decorum. Two remarkable instances Of
dancing being encouraged by divines shall be
adduced; and it cannot be doubted that the
names of DR.. Edward Young, the amiable po-
ct of Night Thoughts, and of Felelon, the
writer Of 'reemachus, who promoted or sane
toned dancing, will suffice TO justify our
opinion that no precept of Christianity for
bids an exercise, in itself salutary, and,
under proper regulations, strictly consistent
with purity of morals, and dignity Of mind
and manners. If any text Of Scriptures i'm
piled disapprobation Of dancing, the learned,
talented and pious divines we have cited,
could not fail to discern the interdict; and all
their writings and conduct afford ample test-
mony that they would not disobey. 1t is
well kaown fact that DR.. Edward Young by
his influential exertions, established dan
cling assemblies at Welwyn; and when
methodistical lady expostulated with MN a.
ganst the undue license, he replled-'-'My dear
madam, | know not of any law oil God or man
against dancing; and Eknow that it is an i'm
portant of my duty, as clergyman, 70 make
evident to young people that the religious cnaT-
acter is not only the best and the wisest, but
likewise permits Of every harmless enjoyment
to e Archbishop Of Cam
bray his own remarkably sacss.s ~ ae.eag
M fi epd i'% said ae % would be onsss%
lily for gray headed ecelesiastic to dance; but
leet US not suppose we shall render our people
more fit ror worldly duties, nor for the joys Of
Heaven, by depriving them Of harmless
solace to their cares. Let US earnestly incul-
cate the doctrines and precepts Of Christianity,
but let us beware Of making region the in
strument of gloomy fanaticism, in imposing
restraints not expressly commanded by the d.
vine author and fnisher Of our faith. This
would not be Christian but Pharasical.'

NO. 49,

young gentleman, who was derirous of enter
ing into the holy bonds of matrimony, and had
turned his attention to the gded beauties of the
day, selected at length for particular addresses,
beautiful young lady, rising seventeen, rich as
well i'll the matter OF lucfe, as in personal accom-
plshnenis. We are informed by the Recorder,
that he felt the charms Of his fair one stealing
his senses in witching spell upon his faculties
But he wanted TO make assurance toubly sure, and
to leave no loop wherein to hang doubt, touch-
ing the worldly possessions of his beloved. Fames
it is true had spoken her wealthy, but Fame had .
cruel fashion of exagsera,ion in these matters
In word, if the truth mast be told our lover was
nut madly in love, but he was able to preserve
some method init. And before the glorious pas
sion had reached its crisis, he had the singular
prudence to examine the records-an to obtain
al, exact knowledge Of the wealth Of his chaImer.
How happy was he 10 find that her estate was
clear, and for once even more valuable than rumor
had proclaimed it.
Flying then, on the wings Of love, to the dwell
ing of his fair one, in good phrase he declared
his affection for her, made tender OF his heart and
hand, and besonght her TO smile upon his passion
and make him happy. But the sAattering tale Of
hope was not to be realized. The star Of our
lovers fortune, had, alas not yet cast its silver
bove the horizon! BY some means it happened
that the young lady had been apprized Of the exc
tent of her lovers curiosity, and in the midss Of
his descants upon flames and darts, and Cupid
she very composedly drew fom hel reticule small
piece of money, and approaching him, made this
reply: "Although lmay not profit by yous fnvora-
BILE sediments towards me, still cannot think of
your being loser on my account As you have
been at the expense of SEARCH must insist on
being allowed 10 replace the amount SO expanded"
So saying, she put an eight penny piece i'll her To-
ver's hand, and he--went his way.
