 The most terrible part of such 2 mau,s character is that he places et,cb faith upon the corolIaries he drew from his false premises, that he does nol hesitate 10 give wing to the base sus- picions of his mind, and frequently is the means of bringing about a disaster which never would have happened but for him.
 Many happy 6resite has beenrcn- dered desclale-many a prosperous young man brought 10 ru;n-maHy a virtuous and amiable girl has been driv- en 10 despair by the liendisb inueados of the Suspicious Nlon.
