MISCELLANY.

THE TWO SIOTIIEitS. TRANSLATED FROM THE FRtXTH. Saumer is a most delightful phec, with its little red and white houses, seated at the fool of a flower dressed hill, and divided by the Loire, which -runs sportively through it, like, a h!ue Scarf on the neck of a heautiftil girl. But, alis, this new 1'dcn, like all other cities, has its sad attendants on civiliz i,tion a prison and a sub perfect, a litferary society, and a lunatic hospital yes, a hospital of lunatics! Ascend the Loire by the left hank, and when you have arrived at the outskirts of the city, clamber by a sleep path you will soon arrive at the top of a pebbly hill, in the flanks of which are small cabins, furnished with great bars of wood. It is there, while you are occupied with admiring with all the poweis of your soul, the beautiful country which stretches from Tour to Angers, the green and fertile fields, the rapid and majestic current which crosses and bathes the brilliant landscape, suddenly the cries of rage, and the laughter of stolidity will burst forth beyond you, and call you to contemplate the spectacle which you have come to seek. Then you will renounce with pain, the happiness of contemplation; but you will renounce it, because it cannot be enjoyed beside such an accumulation of misery. Look at the young man who is walking almost naked the young man whose limbs are blackened with exposure to the sun, and whose feel are torn with rough pebbles in his pathway. He had taken holy orders he was surprised by love he went crazy now he is stripped of his orders and of his love poor victim. As I was walking one day in the midst of all this wreck of humanity, behind me was walking a young lady, accompanied by her husband, leading by the hand a pretty girl, their child. She came, without doubt, like myself, to seek for strong and new emotions. We became strangely jaded with the tiring excitement of a city. I arrived at the same moment with this lady, opposite a girl who had been led out of her cell into the court, and was fastened to the wall by an iron chain. Her large blue eye had so much sweetness, her pale face so many charms, and her long auburn hair fell with so much grace over her naked shoulders, that I looked at her with inexpressible pain. She appeared to have been weeping bitterly how heavy, then, appeared that horrible iron chain which abraded her white, delicate skin! I asked the lay sister who acted as guide to me, what had befallen this girl, that she was treated so rigorously 1 She answered me, lowering her eyes and blushing, "it is Mary, a poor girl from the city, who has loved too deeply. The liend who tempted had abandoned her and after two years, the child of her shame died. This last loss deprived her of reason she was brought to this institution, and in consequence of sudden demngemer.t, she is chained." i he good sister bowed, as if ashamed of referring to such a subject. 1 stood lost in reflection upon the mu tation of human afluirs, as ! gazed at the unfortunate being before me; nnen suddenly I saw her spring the whole length of her chain, seize the little child which the young lady held in her hand, press it closely to her breast, and rush back with the swiftness of an arjow to her stone bench. The mother screamed frantically, and sprung toward the miseiable lunatic, who drove her back with shocking brutality. "It is my babe," cried Mary "it is che indeed God has restored her to me oh, how good is God" and she. leaped up with joy, and covered the child with kisses. The father attempted to seize his child by force, but the lay f'i6tcr prevented him and besought him to let Mary have her own way. "It is not your daughter,"' sud she kindly to Mary ; "she docs not resemble you in the least." "Not my daughter? good heavens, look, look, sister Martha look at her mouth, her eyes it is the very likeness of her lather. She has come down from Heaven. How pretty how very pretty she is; my dear, sweet daughter" and she pressed her to her bosom, and rocked it like a nurse, to still its cries. It was, however, heart rending to see the poor mother, who watched with anxiety every movement of the lunatic, and wept or smiled as Mary advanced toward or retired horn Sister Martha. "Lend your daughter to mc a moment, Mary, that 1 may sc her," said the good sister. "Lend her to you! O no, indeed the first time the priests told me also, that I thould lend her for a little while to God, who dobired iuch angels, and she was gone six month?. I will not lend her again no, no, 1 would rather kill her

and keep her body" and she held up the child as if she would dash its head against the wall. The mother, pale and inanimate, fell helpless upon her knees, and with bitter sobs supplicated the lunatic to give her back her child, and not to da it harm. Mary gave no heed to her; she was holding the infant with her eyes bent intently upon its features. The father, half distracted had gone to seek the director of the institution. It would have been ditlieult then, to say which was the really crazy one the mother, who lay trembling in my arms, and calling aloud for her child, or Mary, who with wild brighter was presenting to the child her shrivelled breasts. I was resolved not to employ foce, but to allow Mary to retire to her cell, and when she was asleep to take away the child. Oiicc in her cell, Mary laid her child at the fool of her bed, pressed down the mattress, disposed the clothes into the form of a cradle while the real mother, with her face pressed against the gratings of the cell, watched in the tw ilight of the place, with haggard and streaming eyes, every motion of the. lunatic. Mary carefully disposed the child in its new made bed, hushed it, and sung little nursery songs, with a wild fitful voice, and then fell asleep beside the infant. The nurse immediately entered the cell on tiptoe, snatched tip the child, and restored it to its mother's arms, who screamed with joy, and fled away with her precious burthen. The cry of the mother awakened Mary she felt beside her in vain for the child she run to the grating, and shook it with a powerful arm she aaw.the child borne from her, she uttered a wild, discordant cry, and fell her whole length upon the floor she. iras dead tw ice was too much.

Till: STORMV DAY. The moral conveyed in the follow ing w hich we copy from 'Peter Parley's Al mauac for old and young,' must prove beneficial to a certain class of persons. If any such should peruse it, we trust that the practical and cutting reproof of the anxious wile, will have the desired effect. Boston Paper. 'It was a drizzling half snowv day: just such a day as puts nervous people in a lad humor with themselves and every body else. Job Dodge sat brooding over the fire, immediately after breakfast. His wife addressed him as follows: 'Mr. Dodge, can't you mend the (rout door latch to-day?' 'No,' was the answer. 'Well, can't you mend the handle of (he water pail?' 'No.' 'Well can't you fix the handle on the mop?' No.' 'Well, cant you put up some pins for the clothes in our chamber?' 'No 'Well, can't you fix the north window so that the wind and snow won't drive in?' 'No, no, no!' answered the hus band sharply. He then took his hat and was on the point of leaving hi house, when his wife knowing that he was going to the tavern, where he would meet some of his vet day com panions, a-ked turn kindly to stop a mo ment. She got her bonnet and cloak and said to her husband, 'You are go ing to the tavern; with your leave will go with yon.' The husband st.ir ted. 'Yes,' added the wife, 'I may a well go as yon; if you go and waste the day and hpple at the tavern, why shal I not do the same?' Job felt the re proof he shut the. door, hung up hi hat, got the hammer and nails, did al his win; requested, and sat down by thr fire at night, a better and a happiei man. MAX AM) WIl-'K. In general, let a woman make a man' home agreeable to him, and he wil in lime, prefer it to all other place There arc exceptions to this as well as to other rules, but the instances arc not numerous. The great error which women fall into, is, that they suppose the lover and husband to be the same iudvidunl, which is a palpable mistake The husband may love as well us the lover, bul his person will bear a differ ent character. It is the want of tin knowledge which mikes married la dies troublesome to their husbands from a supposition that they are neglec led, if a man U out of their sight for an hour or two; they are astonishe now lie can be capable of takinir anv pleasure when absent from them; and attribute the want of thatassid uous at tention w hich preceded their man iaee to disguise or cold indifference; when in truth it is nothing more than the na tural consequence of possessing what w e wmi ardor aspired to attain. While we are in pursuit of any ihing, the mina is in a continued stale ol agita lion, which gives activity to all the senses; but when once we arrive at flic goal we are not less happy perhaps but more calm, and consequently less rapturous in our expiessious. It is in

this state of tender tranquility, if I

may be allowed the phrase, that a man egins to survey the partner of his rtunes through the optics of reason unobstructed by the vapors of passion; and it is at this period that a woman hould endeavor by the strictest atten tion to every word and action, to fix on her husband's mind a thorough con fidence in her virtue, an approbation of her conduct, and a reflected eseem for her character in general. These sentiments will naturally proluce friendship, which, built on so no lo a basis, can never fail to be lasting is long as the merit which gave it birth. 'TIIKV SAY.t "They say" tells that which is not true at least which is not true at least three miarters of the lime. lie is a tout the worst authority you can proluce to support the credibility of your statement.

If each farmer, hav ing a knowledge of an approved rem edy for anv disease, would become as extensive as the Register is circula ted nor would I consider it too heavy a tax upon Us columns. These truths being impressed upon my mind, 1 am disposed to follow the humble manner of some of your correspondents, and give a receipt I have always found sin gularly elhcacious for colic in horses. I he causes of this disease are nu merous bad food, hard rides, consli paled bowels, sudden transitions from heat to cold, and the reverse, bots, and even customary food, when the system is previously weakened by fatigue and over action. To cure the disease produced from any ot the foregoing causes, I generally mminisicr an ounce ot laudanum in a hllle water, which has invariably sue coeoeu Willi mc hut candor compel me 10 rtcKiiowieuge my veterinary prac . . i i i . net; is noi extensive; but 1 have used the above receipt successfully, after i .... i i .. inv. iMuuccmai uuminisiraiiou of a variety of other remedies, which entitles it to a further trial.

But restore this altered circulation and derange ment, and ease follows; a healthy and naiural condition ol the system imme uialely supervenes. Now no remedy promises so far to fulfil these healthy indications as laudanum. It is a pow erful anti-irritant, and diffusive slim ulant, as well as spasmodic. The irritation being relieved by any rem euy, ihc spasm relaxes, and a cure fo lows as surely as light drives away uaikness. JNo danger need be appre bended from its early administration but if fever and inflamalion were to ex ist, it would certainly be forbidden This condition of the system requires bleeding, purging and clystering; and frequently a use of cold water on the surlacc.
