True gentlemen are to be found in every grade ofso

his homsly dress and his ob6n honest countenance, is
oNener found to he possessed ofthe real attributes ofa
gentleman, than the enervuted man-millluer, who is
much more careful his gloves than of his honor;
whose shirt bosom must be as pure as virgins fame;
and Who, if one curl of his glossy wool displaced
would be thrown Immediately into strong convulsions
The blood which flows in rich and generous stream

of God as the life current which eddfes round the
princely fountain ofthe highest of Engiands noble

THETWO STUDENTS:

M. Aphonse, a medical Q, udent Of more re~
fined tastes aud pursuits than most yonng men
Of his class have the reputation of possessing,
met in one Of his rambes with one of The pret-
uest, fairy-kc little creatures imaginable.
The fairy was, however, in spite Of her beauty,
Deing Of earth, and was clad 10 the mundane
costume el an embroideress, BY ysome strange
accident the two young persons Immediately
experienced mutual sentiment of tenderness

THE BROKEN LEG,
A ATEMP5RASog TALE.

Bernard appeared at oil times, and every
where before midday, prudent and amiabe
man; but after dinner, and in the evening he
waH not always precisely so. In fact, no vas
q true son Of The ancient Germans, so ofen
reprOached for love Of drinking, and know
NO greater enjoyment than tina. of giving, a.
midst convivial friends, The inspiring songs,
"EnjO) the charm of lfe,"-."Wilh laurel
crown the flowing bowl" and Of emptyiug
out flask Of coed old Hook, as an accom-
panimenL Had he been satisfied with ona
flask, nobody would have had right to cay
na"ght against him, especially as h's income
permitted il; bu, one flask was sure 10 call for
another, even TO a sixth or seventh.
The mother, sisters; and brothers, with
whom he resided, had the modification Of see
ing him return homo six evenings in the week,
perfectly intoxicated. Their most urgent re-
nonstrAnces were fruitlesr, and they began to
think his drunkenness was incuruble. Laura,
his sweet heart thought go too; for, after in
Vulnerable quarrels, breach was al length
made between the lovers, who, indeed, were
almost as much as betrothed.
Hitherto he had, from respect to Laura,
maintained at least the outward appearance OF
good munners; but nov he became shame
less and notorious drunkard. Almost every
night, he either had a scuffle with watchmsn,
or slept Oft his lntoxicatou in round house.
His health & fortune began 10 melt away. In
rhorthe wss upon tho brink Of ruin.
Two Of his friends, who although they Of
ten drank with him, always kept themselves
within the bounds Of moderation, were much
la. a ~ tn roolS Sirh
the drinker, by method not the most COM
mon in The world. With this view, they one
evening accompanied Bernard 10 public
wine' cellar, and appeared in particularly high
spirits. Old Hook was called for and they
encouraged him TO quaf as much Of it as he
liked, and that was no small dose. He drunk
himself into the clouds. About midnight the
two friends Began TO yawn, shut their eyes,
and seemed to fall asleep. Bernard was de-
lighted, for he could now drink another flask
without being reproved by them. Before,
however, he had finished it, intoxication
reached its highest pitch, and he a, length
fell, deprived of reason, into a sound and
death-ke sleep.
His friends instantly started up from their
pretended slumber, shook and logged him, and
10 their great joy, found that he exhibited no
symptoms of wskefulnessr By sign which
was previously agreed upon, they now called
in a surgeon, who was waiting in an adjon-
ing apartment. He Immediately entered, bring.
ing with him spliuts and other implements for
broken leg, and soon lacedup the right leg

fusion. We had scarcely fallen asleep, when
attempting 10 go down stairs, you fell, broke
your leg and tainted. We awakened, raised
you up, and caused you 10 be Idresscd. la
Heavens name, stir not for your life!-We
have ordered litter, and it will be here imme-
d:ately to carry you home"
Bernard was delrious; his fancy magnifed
the pressure of the splInts 10 The pain of a
real broken limb and, never once imagining
that he was deceived, he permitted himself 10
be borne home lamenting
There, his family received him, as was cons
certed, with.tears and wailings For four weeks
he continued to be visited by the surgeon, who
kept his leg squeezed into case, so that he
could not move himself, and did not doubt the
reality Of the alleged accident. So long an
Imprisonment was intolaFable;--ha cursed
wine as the cause Of his mls(ortunes, end
made solemn vow never 10 get drunk in fu>
ture.
At the expiration Of a month; the surgeon
informed him the cure waas completed. He
went as if upon eggs, 10 save his broken leg,
and his first walk was 10 the house of his
sweetheart, whom he ahxiously entreated 10
forget the past, and once more reinState him
in her affections. She promised both, on con-
ditlOn Of temperate years. probation He
kept it manfully, and then became the husband
OF his Laura, and continued, during the rest
of his life an orderly respectable man, who
never at any one time, drank more than he
could carry.
AGer several years, Bernard, for the first
time, dsicOVe. ed the rick that had beon played
upon him. he thanked his Friends heartily for
it, and began onco mole TO tlead firmly on hs
right leg. the slrainng OF which he had al
ways until lhon most carefully avoided.
