Anecdote Of Fox.

Club life in London tells the following
story:
Amidst the widest excesses Of youth,
even while the perpetual victim Of his
passion for play, Fox eagerly cultivated
at intervals his taste for letters, especi-
ally the Greek and Roman historians
and poets; and he found resources in
their works under the most severe de-
pressions, occasione1 by i'll success at
the gaming table One morning after
Fox had passed the whole night in com
pany with Topham Beauclerc at faro,
the two friends were about to separate
Fox had lost throughout the night, and
was in frame of mind approaching
desperation. Beauclerc's anxiety for
the consequences which might ensue, led
him to be early at Fox's lodgings and
on arriving, he inquired, not without APP
prehension, whether he had risen. The
servant replied that Mr.. Fox was in the
drawing room, when Beauclerc walked
up stairs, and cautiously opened the
door, expecting to behold frantic game
ster stretched on the floor, bewailing his
losses, or plunged in moody despair !;
Uut ut Was dhlOnloucu W huu Hiih Itdu-
ing a Greek Herodotus
what would you have me to do =?
said Fox; Il have lost my last shilling.
Upon other occasions, after stalking
and losing all that he could raise at faro
instead Of exclaiming against fortune, or
manifesting the agitation natural under
such circumstances, he would lay his
head on the table, and retain his place,
but exhausted by mental and bodily ia
tigue almost Immediately fell into pro-
found sleep One night, at Brookes +,
Fox made some remark on government
powder, in allusion to something that had
happened. Adams considered it re-
lection, and sent Fox challenge. Fox
went out, and took his station, giving a
fall front. Fitzgerald said, "You must
stand sideways" "Why, | am as thick
one way as the other" Fire" was
given. Adams fred, Fox did not, and
when they said he must, he said, "Tll be
id if do | had no quarrel. They
then advanced to shake hands. Fox
said, Adams, you'd have killed me if it
had not been for government powder"

which warns and cheers, and brings a
sense of grateful repose. This is some
times seen in mature life, after the fame
Of passion has expired.
And there is the eye of the youthful
lover it is more bewitching and passion
ate. In that strange magnetic ball is an
electric power that thrills the tender
cords of human hearts What wondrous
power of attraction and repulsion is
lodged within the fringed curtain Of a
maiden eye How many hearts has it
inspired with love and joy--ho many
crushed with grief and pain?
How terrible the possibilities of the
human eye for veal or woe.
