gla ed their eyehalls and gnashed their teeth about

AN ESp TO KnsIsG.--A short while since the at

young lady whose neck was dislocated In conse-
quence of the ilLadsised resistance which she of.
fered to the aicabie salute OF an anirer more ar
dent that discrest. Our last exchanges from Esi-
rope now match this tale with another of an iT-
quest held at Leeds on the body of a young man OF
81 who fell down stairs and killed himself IN the
course of an attempt to snatch kiss from the un-
willing lips ofa girl of fifteen. Some OF our cotem-
poraries deduced trom the hrst OF these occur
rencss the Wholesome moral that young ladies
should never oppose the advances OF their admirers
Iu common fairness we are nov bound 90 infer
from the second accident that no man shouid ever
