MISCELLANEOUS.
SY Know Et.o-BY E. w. DEWERs.


At seventeen years of age I was
more of a man than l ever have
been since. I wore long-tailed coat
and boots, Ito which an appurtenance
of spurs was generally added)
moustache was quite visible on my
upper lip, and consciousness OF ripe
maturity never left my mind. l was
studying for the legal profession, but
at the time of which / write, was
spending my summer vacation at my
fathers house in the country.
Though so manly, (almost soldier
like, as I fancied,) in my appearance,
my inner was by no means as stern as
my outer man. I loved my mother
with childish tenderness, and sooner
than pain her pious heart. L unmur-
muringly accompanied her every
Sunday to the village church to listen
to long sermons of which | could not
hear a word, for the tremulous accents
of the very aged minister who con-
Quoted the services, were so faint as to
be inaudible where we sat. Though
melted by love and duty to subject
myself to this weekly penance, (wcll
deserved by my weekly sins) my con-
science yet did not prevent me from
willing eway the time by such amuse-
ments as lay at hand--namely, that OF
observation and speculation on the
countenances of my neighbors, an
occupation of which [ was fond.
The physiognomy which interested
me more than all others was that of q
young girl who sat not far from us,
and who was accompanied by an aged
lady, probably her grandmother--the
object of her ever watchful care. This
girls face, from first ehciting my care
less admiration, gradually absorbed
my whole attention. 1t was very
beautiful, but apart from that it pos
sessed the greatest possible interest
for me. Never had I seen a counte-
nance which denoted so much sensi-
bility :. each motion of her mind was
plainly written upon it, by its quick
delicate changes; nothing was wanted
but the key of a corresponding degree
of sonsibiIity in the beholder' to read
her tender, innocent soul, like an open
book.
For hours I gazed, and speculated on
that fair young face-I thought how
sad would be the lot of so sensitive a
being, should fate unite her to one who
would not know how to read Alright
what was so delicately written, to whom
the varying expression of that sweet
countenance would be but a blank-who
should be able to see in it only the
ooarser part-beauty of feature. There
was no end to the many reveries into
which those bushes led me.
Sometimes, by chance, the fair object
of my busy fancies would catch my
eye, or without looking at me, seem
! instinotively to know or feel that

was quite ready to contribute to her
amusement. l devoted myself to her
the whole evening, and felt the sweetest
pain | ever experienced when L saw, by
Grace's dear, changing, sensitive face,
that she was deeply panied and wound
ed.
When this foolery had been carried
to its height, perceived Grace sud-
denly rise and step through the open
window out on the piazza. In few
minutes followed her; she had retired
to little distance from the window,
and stood with her head learning against
the railing notwithstanding softly
behind her, l passed my arms around
her and whispered.
'Ah, dearest Grace-do not deny it
You love me-"
There was little pause-then
laughing, yet still half crying, Grace
turned aside her head. and said-Alas
II KNOW IT.''

Extraordinary Discovery Of an -An-
Gent Printing Press IN India.--When
Warren Hastings was Governor Gen
eral of India, he observed that in the
district of Benares, little below the
surface of the earth, is to be found a
Stratum of kind of fibrous woody
substance, of various thickness in
horizontal layer.
Maj. Roebuck, informed of this,
went out to spot where al excavation
had been made, displaying this singu-
lar phenomenon. In digging some
what deeper, for the purpose of further
research, they laid open vault, which,
on examination, proved to be Of some
size, and to their infinite astonishment
they found kind of printing press,
set up in the vault, and on it moveable
types, placed as if ready for printing.
Every inquiry was set on foot to as
certain the probable period at which
such an instrument could have been
placed there, for it was evidently not
Of modern origin, and from all the Ma
ior could collect, it appeared probable
that the place had remained in the state
in which it was found for nt least one
thousand English Paper.

my eyes.
One Sunday, happened, in coming
out of church, to be close to my lovely
eighbor-immediate behind her
her hand actually touched her uncon-
scious garments I felt an irresistible
desire to force her in some way to
notice me-to speakto her-to occasion
one of those charming blushes-any-
thing-I knew not what. In short, like
an impertinent coxcomb as [ was, l
stopped forward, and with an insutfe-
rabls insolence, which ] blush now to
remember, [ whispered in her ear,
You are very pretty

when she calmly replied,

I was absolutely startled. [ had

time to turn the matter in my mind, for,
in few days I returned to college,. L
can truly say it was the one problena,
which throughout the term, gave me
most trouble to solve and cost me most
thought.
Another year elapsed ere 1 returned
home, and again sat in the little village
church. My personal appearance was
meanwhile somewhat altered. | still
wore my moustache, it is true, but my
coat-tails were not, or did not seem,
quite SO long, and [ had left off my
spurs.
My mother and I were early seated
in our pew, and L impatiently waited
the arrival Of my lovely enigma. |
tried to prepare myself for bitter disap-
pointment. L have been thinking and
dreaming about an IDEAL I said to
myself doubtless when the young
lady herself appears, all my fine imag
inings will vanish-there can be no
doubt my fancy has been playing
tricks with me, investing a mere coun-
try maiden with transcendant grace6
and charms.' While thus reasoning
with myself, the young lady appeared,
leading her old relative with tender
care.
Worshipping an 'ideal,' indeed my
most charming remembrance did not
begin to do justice to the beautiful
reality. A soul full of tenderness and
sensibility seemed to have found a
fitting home in a person of perfect
grace and lovelincss.
She blushed, when, looking around,
she chanced to see me, and again the
play Of expression on her features,
which had so Interested me formerly,
charmed me.
The more l studied her face, the
more l seemed to see into the pure
depths of her soul. Icould have staked
my life on her noble purity of thought
and deed.
As we returned home, / described
nay fair neighbor and asked my mother
who she was.
Her name my mother said, is
Grace Denny; and she is the lovelicst,
the most superior young woman | have
ever in my whole life met with. it is
too soon to think Of such things yet, ;
she continued smiling, but some years
hence it would make me happy to see
my dear son married to just such a
woman
Not quite so fast, mother said !
laughing a good deal to hide little
boyish embarrassment, which l was
most anxious to conceal.
| found that Grace had become a
constant visitor at my mothers, and
did not fail to improve the opportunity
of becoming better acquainted with
her.
She was indeed gifted creature,
