There ia Cel. n., and I must meet him, or cross ovor the street, which by tho by, lean do, with a very good grace, as there is a table on the opposite walk, covered with fine flower pots; arranged Tor sale. Really, that's too bad! He is crossing too, and I must meet him after a!!! I began to hope that 1 without the should reach noma this imrning, honor of another dun ' Good morning, Mr. Hall, how are von!' Quito well myself", Colonel, but but my child is rather ill, so you will please excuse uie, as I must be in haste. With ail my heart; Mr. Hall; but when you have a little leisure, we will look over our accounts, as I have a large sum of money to make out within ft wprV an.l .I..I1 t V, r k j me necessity or caning m my Hues.

IW, there ia not, in the whole English .anguage, another combination of words which can fill my mind with such strange gloom and terror, as that same 'money to make out!' enouid a hold assassin enter my chamber at mian.gnt, prebent a Uazger to my bosom, and bid me fight for my life, it would not horrify ma hnlf ma immh 1 1 .. . r -- ----- - . uc cmrilllCB oi a kind friend, whom I owed and could not pay, if i gueeseu ne uaa -money to make out. Were i in a trail vessel, in the midst of a furious tempest, ana should I hear tbe Captain say, after a long and desperate struggle of effort, that all was over, and we were sinking into the dark bosom of the deep, it would not unnerve me half ao much as that dreadful 'money to make out.' Nor if I hung on the tal!et Bpire of St. Peter's Church at Rom and aaw the whole vast building a mass of red flame be neath me, methinks I should not feel one half ma strange uneasiness that maddens my brain when I am told, with a peculiar nod, there is .iiw.icy winueoui. ies, and what would be possible, still worse, were I lastene I to the fa tal table of the tuquisition, watching the slow . ueueuuingswmgiug unite, as it came nearer nearer nearer, until it whizzed my very hair.

Rl.o clr ed him to buy. He thought he could nut afford t but the fruit looked delicious. He fumbled his pockets, and finally succeeded in brimrin ""lu,')lll' iniswou.u purchase enough .. uuc uesterii ana, any way, it was onlv tmv cents, ifhewasin debt; and, certainly, such a trifle could not affect him; so he gave the woman the only piece of coin he possesred. and directed her where to leave the fruit. He had walked on but a few roda, when a ragged, halfstarved looking little negro boy stepped into mepam De-ore him and very impatinently said his mother wanted the money he oweJ htr fur washing. Very well, my little man,' said Mr. Hall who wig sometimes rathercomplimentary, when unexpectedly dunned: 'but I hive no change to day, though I shall have some this week.' Mother said she must have It now, persevered the boy, in a louder tone of voice. It is wu.j u.ijrceius, sir; sue lias some money to mane out to pay her rent, and if it ain't paid by to.night, we shall be kicked into tbe street ia the morning. Money to make out again!' groaned Mr Hall, with strides which left the line blackey far in the rear, and soon brought him to the marble etepsofhis dwelling 'Who could have be lieved that even tbe months of the very netrro boys in the street, would open to pour upon'me those words of shame and madness!' He entered a large and handsome back par, lor, threw himself upon a sofa, and covering hie face with his handkerchief, he charged the maid to admit no person to that room, and to answer all inqiries after himself with a 'not at home.' We do not kno exactly what passed in his mind during the hour which he remained in that position.- for he gave no other signs of life than a wild whisper of the word 'debt,' followed by a convulsive shiver, when the deor-bell was once beard to ring; but we will take his own text, and thus innocently fill up his painful blank of time by imagining what tbe sermon might have been; and if our words are not preesely the same as those by which he expressed his feelings in his own mind, still we doubt not but there may be aety striking similarity between the ideas.
