YICTOR HUGO . THE COKTICT . It-sra * ateautifbl mDrnin | r in Angnst . . My trial lad been prolonged for three days : for three days my name and my crime tad every morning gathered a clond of spectators , vrho thronged on the benches of the Hall of Audience like crovs roond a dead body ; for tnrre days had all their phantas magoria of Jnd ge * , " Witnesses , CoHnseUprs , passed and repassed before me ; no * grotesque , now sanfmnary , always gloomy and fatal . Uneasiness and terror had keptme awake on the two first nights : on the third I had slept , overcome by weariness and * xhanstion ; at midnight J had left the Jury in deliberation , I was led back to fhe straw of my dungeon * here 1 sank immediately into a profound sltSn . i
aeep oi oblivion . These were the first honri of repose which viated me Jor many days . ^ J was still in the midst of this deep deep Vben iLeycametoawakeme . The heavy step of the ironshod turnkey , tke jarring © finskeys , and theboaree turning ofjociirnrere not now sufficient to break my rest ; he placed his rude hand noon my ann , and his rode Toice mng in my ear ; arise prisoner ; ' I ; openedmy eyes and sat -nprigtt with , a feeling of ^ rror Jtjst , then , throngi the l % hand serrow window of my wH , 1 saw on the ceDIng of a neighbouring gallery—the only portion of Heaven which It was permitted me to behold—the yellow reflection , in wMcb . eyesaccnstomedto the gloom of a prison can recognize the sun . I love the sun . *** " " . F "
•* TIsfine weather , " said I to tbe turnkey . He stood a moment without speaking , as if uncertain whether my observation was worth a reply ; tben with an effort , he basbly muttered , " very Mely . " *«* ™>™? wable ; my thoughts yet half in deep , my bps fixed m a smile , and my eyes turned to the toft , goliai reverberation which rested on the « fl-? " Tj » morning is beantifay' I continued : ** jes , - said the man , " they wait &r yon . " * These word s Kke the thread -which breaks the flight ol an insect , threw me violently back into r eality . I suddenly saw , as in a flash of lightaW , the sombrelian of the Assizes , Thejudgesranged mthe form of a horse-shoe , their blood-like garinenr * , the three rows of witnesses with their stupid feces , the two gens d ' armes beside me at the bar and the black robes rustling , and the heads of the crowd
swarming away in the back ground , and , fixed onmv own , the eyes of twelve men who were ¦ waking while I slept , Irose , my teeth chattered , my hands shook , and couid scarcely find my clothes , myfeetwe ^ e nerveless . At the nret step I took , I tottered like an overloaded porter ; however , I followed my conductor , the two gens d ' annes awaited me at the threshold of my cell . They put on my handcuffs agam ; m these were little springs which they careftlly adjnsted- 1 bore all passively—it was the fixnsg of one machine on another . ^ We crossed an interior court—the pure air of the morning revived me ; I looked up , the sky was blue , the warm Tays of the sun , broken by the chimnies , Mlm large aagle «; of light-on tfcesnbmit of the Tngh walLs of the prison . It was indeed a beautiful
monnug . We ascended a-spiral staircase ; we passed a gallery , then another , and then a third . * A low door was opened ; a warm atmosphere mingled with murmurs met mem the face . It was the breath of the crowd m the hall oftheasiize . I entered . Oa my appearance there was a rumour of arms andmces rthe seats were displaced rudely , the l ^^ a ^ kedin the pressure , * adaii I talked ttaOTghthelong halL between two masses of the people hned with soldiers , I felt myself the centre to Trtnch was attached the cord that put inmotion all those laces bent forward , and gaping around me . At this moment I perceived that my fetters wereeone : b
« J do : not recollect when onr here they had been removed . ¦ - - » . There was a aeep silence ; 3 this in my place . When the tumult in the trowd had 3 ubaded the tmnult in my ider * subsided also . I felt clearly , * hat I comprehended but confusedly till then , that the decisive moment was come , and that I had arrived to receive my sentence . - - Let who will « tplain the reason , this idea brought ao terror with it . The windows ¦ were opln , and the ar and the murmurs of the city flowed freely in : the haQ was fall of Egfct , here and there on 1 he floor , Die tobies , ami angles offee-.-wali . The jndses at end

A revolution had been effected within me . Till the sentence I felt breathing , palpitating , living in the atmosphere of other men ; and I thought I could perceive a wall which separated us . Nothing seemed to wear the same aspect as before . These large luminous windows , their glorious sun , their pure sky , their pretty flower—all grew pale and white ; the colour of a coffin .
The men , the women , tbechildren who surrounded my passage , seemed to move like phantoms . At the fooVof the stair , a dark , dirty barred carriage awaited to receive me .

Kobxe Example of the Earl of Arun-DEI —Henry the First of England assigned his crown to his daughter 11 atilda and her ififaut son Henry . But Stephen , a nephew of the King , obtained the prize . During his reign Matilda attempted to acquire what she deemed her right This occasioned a long and distressing civil yar . Sbe was unsuccessful ; but her son Henry afterwards revived the contest . " Near "Wal'ingford , Stephen and Henry were preparing for battle , and the kingdom was again threatened with all the horrors of a civil war , when the prudent counsels of the Earl of
Arundel averted the impending storm . He represented to the King the miseries to which the kingdom mast again be exposed by the contest . He insisted that it would be more suitable to the character of Christians to try to accommodate mattere by treaty , than to revive the misfortDnes of their bleeding country , by renewing the war ; and , in fine , that it was inconsistent with reason that a whole nafion should suffer the greatest calamities on account of a dispute between two princes , whose aim was to gratify their own ambition rather than to procure the happiness of the people . Bigland ' s History of England . —Bigland says , thtse "
arguments ought to be transmitted to posterity in letters ot gold . " They produced the intended effect . A trace was agreed oh , and a treaty of peace ensued . Stephen was to hold the crown during his life , aad Henry was to be his successor . Thus by this timely remonstrance of one considerate man , England was saved from dire calamities ! —[ It is-likely-that "b y skilful negociation the civil war in Spain might be terminated , and at Tar less expense than it would cost to continue the ruinous contest for six months . ] Moralities cf the Drama . —Perhaps some of the finest moral . precepts in the language may be feund in the drama The following select sentences
are given as an ^ illustration cf this ; and as a proof that the dramatic form is the best adapred lor moral poetry : —Sorrow , in any shape , should meet with pitj-j but when it supplicates in a female form , we dry its tears , nor wait to a » k what caused them . — T ) ie Free Knights . I detest a pauper so abominably that I never see one without endeavouring to prevent his being one ; and did others ftel the same sort of hate , who knows but in time the wretches might be exterminated ?—Town and Country . — Those who feel the spirit of gratitude in receiving a kindnes ? , only want the opportunity to display "" the
generosity in bestowing one . —Ditto . — Courage in the breast , is , like the cash in the pocket ^ only placed there for the benefit of the unfortunate who may want it . —Ditto . —The man who once descends to be a villain is generally at heart a coward . — Man and Wi fe . —I know but one excuse a person can have for giving nothing , and that is , having nothing to give . — West Indian . —There is not , in the whole creation , so savage an animal as a human being without pity . — D . tto . —Fine men make fine speeches ; a nattering beggar only shows his mind is mean as his condition . —Natural Son . —When a
woman forgets what sbe owes herself , a lover should set little -value upon any thing she gives him . — School for Fathers . —A disregard of the world is the first step towards deserving its reproaches . — Ditto . —Every one has good sense enough to see other people ' faults ; and good nature enough to overlook hiv own . —Ditto . - Fireside Comfort . —An Englishman enjoys the highest degree of pleasure when he sits , with his family , round the fire , and * eTen if he should not speak a word , it affords him entertainment enough to see the fire . A fireside is to him the bean ideal of pleasure ; when he pronounces that word , he immediatel y
thinks of his family , and the train of ideas put him in a good humonr . Even the coldest Englishman will become cheerful and confiding at the fireside ; pride will give way te a well-founded self-respect heightened by hospitality ; unfeigned kindness is shown to every one who is received into the circle Tonnd the fire , instead of the reserve which custom and fashion prescribe in social intercourse . In short , English humonr , wit aBd sense , are seen in their proper h " gbt by the blaze of thfr coal fire , and one may taie it for granted that strangers who have travelled in England , and have afterwards reviled the nation , never had an opportunity of sitting roni a fire with an English family . —Anon .
The Civil Laws of England . —The laws of England have been the subject of eulogy to many sagacious and learned men . I have read them repeatedly , and pondered them attentively . I find them often dilatory , often uncertain , often contradictory ^ ofien creel , often rninous . "Whenever they find a man down , they keep him so ; and the more pertinaciously the ^ more ' earnestly he appeals to them . Like tilers , in mending one hole , they always make
another . There is no country is which they move with such Telocity , where life is at stake , or , where property is to be defended , so slowly . Can it be wondered thatj upoa a bench , under . so rotten an effigy of justice , sat a Saggs , a Jeffries , a Finch , and a Page ! Law has become in England not only the most expensive , but the most rapacious and dishonest of trades . —Landor ' s Imaginary Conversations .
After one of Mr . Owen ' s lectures in Edinburgh a gentleman of considerable talent , and well educated , rose to call in question some of his statements , aud ne thought be had discovered a very w « ak point . He said to Mr . Owen , you have said that human beings , may be trained to believe anything , however absurd arid contradictory . I have , said Mr , Owen . Welfj ' -Aeh , said the gentleman , I appeal to you and this assembly , whether it would be possible to train an individual to believe that two and two makefive ?
Mr . Dwen said , / ' without going to remote countries tq : show , the absurdities and contradictions which maokiod haTe been trained to believe , I refer you to this generation and to this country , where not merely one , but a large number of human beings are trained' to believej ahd do believe , th ^ t one mates £ hree , -and three make one . " The answer was viewed by ther-gentienian as most triumphant , he sat dow ^ t and said not another word . The assemo ^ . ga . ^ e . saxdis&ket rounds of applause . .

A Prudential Consideration . —I have the pleasure of the personal acquaintance of a very distinguished officer , whose lady , haying died in one of our colonies , and expressed a wish to be buried in England , was accordingly deposited in a cask of rum , for the purpose of transport home , but who remained in the cellar of the said distinguished officer even after his" second marriage , the detention being occasioned by his expectation that the duty on the spirit imported into England into which the dear departed was preserved would , in a few years , be either lowered or taken off altogether ; strange as this may seem , it is true . —The Gurney Papers .
Curious Anomaly . —If the physician sees you eat any thing that is not good for your body , he cr ies , It is poison ; if the divine sees you do any thing that is hurtful to your soul , to keep you from it he cries , You are damned I To preach tong , loud , and damnation is the way to be cried up . We love a man that damns us , and we run after him again to save us . If a man have a sore leg , and he should go to an honest , judicious surgeon , and he should only bid him keep it warm and bid
him anoint it with such an oil ( an oil well known ) that would do the cure , he would noU much regard him , because he . inows the medicine beforehand is an ordinary mediciae .- But if he should go to a surgeon that should tell him , " Your leg will gangrene within three days , and it must be cut off arid you will die unless you do , something that I could tell ; " what listening there would be to this man ? " Oh , for the Lord ' s sake , tell me what this is ; I I will give you anything for your pains . "— Sclden's
