Professor Bochn, of known respect.
ability in Gicsen and Marburg, where
he regularly read public lectures on
mathematics, q man Of integrity, re-
liy!ous sentiments. friend Of truth,
and anything else but an essayist-
used frequently to relate the follow
ing:
Being one afternoon in pleasant
society, where he was smoking his
pirc and taking his tea, without re-
iicct'ng upon any particular subject
he all at once felt an impulse in his
mind to go home. Now, as lie had
nothing to do at home, bis mathcmat-
ical reason told him he ought not to
50 home, but remain with the compa-
ny. But the inward monitor became
stronger and more urgent, so that at
length every mathematical demon
stiatlon gave way, and he followed
lis inward impulse. On entering his
room, and looking about him, he could
discover nothing particular; but he
felt q new excitement within him,
which told him the bed III which he
slept must be removed from its place.
and transported into another corner.
Here likewise reason began again to
operate, and presented to him that
the bed had always stood there, be-
sides which it was the fittcst place for
it, and the other was most unfit: bu,
all this availed nothing, the monitor
gave hnn no rest; he was obliged to
call the servant, who moved the bed
to tho desired place. Upon this his
mind was tranquiIized, he returned to
the company he had left, and felt no.
thing more Of the impulse. lie stayed
to supper with the company, wen,
home about ten o'clock, tl!cn laid
himself i'll his bed, and went to sleep
very quietly. Al midnight he was
awaked by dreadful cracking and
noise. lie arose from his bed, and
then saw that a heavy beam, with
great part Of the ceiling, had fallen
exactly upon the place where his bed
had previously Stood. Bochn now
gave thanks 20 the mcrcitul Father
OF men for having gracious!y cause!
sach warning to he given iini.

CHAPTER ~.

"Did you notice that very pretty girl in
church yesterday with Ellen Ashley" asked
Julia Clifton Of her friend, Miss Alicia Wal
,ep. This was a few days after the arrival
Gertrude Fay in Rossyille.
"lndeed, | scarcely looked that way" an.
swered Miss Walters, with toss Of her head
Remember, II you please, do no, claim
Acquaintance with these Ashleys, aud conse-
qucntly it is Of very little importance to mo
whom they have as guests. 'Bnd' Of a feafh-
r,'-you know the rest" with which very
elegan, quotation Miss Alicia concluded her
speech.
q" ! mus, say think your prejudice against
the Ashleys is very ungenerous and uniriend-
ly," said Miss Clifton.
Prejudice, Julia" answered Miss Wal
ters; IL am very far from harbourinc preju-
dice against any one. A for this family,
whom you seem to have taken under your eS-
pecial favor and patronage, acting as their
champion upon all occasions, ! neither know
or care anything about them. They may bo
amazingly cleycr;-l dare say they are, -
quite on par with the Smiths aud Whites;
but tha, you or ! should visit them-yOu,
the daughter Of Judge Clifton, and ], tho On-
ly child Of the richest man in the county, and
my uncle in COngress-is perfectly absurd
ridiculous"
