Men do not instinctively delight ia the tni-ery of their fellow creatures; and a ii?poiiiieii to favor him was manifested bv tf;oe who wtrt compelled to become r.veri.vtn txecutioners. The prince h not expressly required the extremity of torture, an ! his eyes weie therefore suffered t remain undistuibed, but I he wuai i . titjes of milk and honey had feetM , .'ci, Hnd before a day had passed, tiie m iraii of wasps and ans by which hs ws surrounded gave bim a ti:--dlui frreusie vf what be was yet to suitVr.

To Everington each of thee three d ;ys seemed an age, and the nights appeared if they would never end.

Il was on the night of the third day, be lay wishing for death, and in a Hate of half delirium, that he was rows e.l by a oft sweet voice, which whisper ed in his ear "CveringloD."

With lips parched by thirl, he could with difficulty articulate, but the listened and heard his taint accents employed in expressions of gratitude and thanks I shall die, my dear Coralinn, I must

For a moment she hesitated whether it was beat to di.cover herself, orav: but when she heard her name! pronounced in a low deep voice, she hes itand no longer, and was almost over whelmed with joy when she found the ltraner was the faithful Han.ors. 'Oh. for the sake of every thing sa cred, save him Oh, save him." said ehe. ns she took the band of the servant. "If in the power of mun to save him, lie shall be saved." replied llamors, "my bumes, this night, was to ascertain wbtlher be wa- living; lor much 1 fear ed tha my dear master was no more. Lut tell me my impress, are yu free to filUw him? Ate you not bound to the tvrant " "No," replied Coralinn, "nor shall I ever b'- my purpo-e is tixec! while Everinston live. I live when be dies, I Will live no longer.1' Can you be at this place, at this hour tomorrow night r ' inquired ILiuiors "Alas, I cannot tell,"' replied Coialinn "my liberty is Jit lhe control of a ty ra my life is mv own. As a mark of special favor, Mirra. has yielJed to my
request, to defer my ccompetled onion with him, until the infidel, as he terms
my Everington, shall cease to live; and then, he has sworn bj Edits, that even the command of the Prophet shall not induce him Jo forego it." 'Allah giant that he maybe thwarted in his intentions," said Hamois: "but time wears away and I must be gone. I will only speak one word with my mas. ter, and then for the mountain be here to-morrow night, and you shall be eavtd." So saying, Clamors softly returned to the spot where Everington lay, spoke to with him a moment, and then disappear ed in the gluom that overhung river and plain. No sooner was he away than Coralinn took her stand beside the sufferer. "O my Coralinn, there i still hope! bless Allah with me, my dear girl, for that faithful fellow; O, that the eternity nf to-morrow was passed, and I could a gain be free!"' said Evering'on. "Will yon have some food," said Coralinn; "you will need strength to live and meet the events of to mortow." "Yes, for now I wish to live," was the answer. Coralinn then gave him some nourishing provisions with which she had previouly provided hersell, begged him to have patience to hope for a happy result promised, if possible, to be there and fly with him; and then, tendeily kissing him. bade him faiewcll. .Luriu the interview, the sentinel who..e duty it j as to prevent intercourse wih the pi is oner, through the night, was soundly sleeping m the high bank of the uver beneath a thick cluster of flowering ac cacias, and remained entiiely ignorant of what had taken place. After the tecapture of the fugitives iu the mountains, Coralinn, on her letum to Schiras was delivered over to the custody of an old woman, who had oidtis not to truct her out of sight, and was as su red that she should ansAer for her charge with her life. For several day she could learn nothing from E erugi.u; and the prince, who daily saw uei, tefused to communicate any information, as to what was his late, lurther than trial he had met with a merited punish men , but was stdl ..live. When, however, be had been publicly sentenced, Coiahun, ae we have already seen, ieumed the re suit, atid took her resolution To succeed, however, it was ntcessa ry to appear submissive, as she w ell knew that to lefuse. the hand ot tne priuce, would only excite hun to the u?e ot force, to compel a compliance with his wishes. She thereloie begged that the ceremony might be delayed utnil Everington was no more; resolved at the moment she was assureil of bis death, she would lo.low him; and the priuce granted her re UM m h m. every exmanaged to have her drink what she wished f it. it had the efiect desned, and by the time the iuhabitanis ot the palace had tunk to rest, the old woman was beyond being distuibed. With a titinblmg hand, Coralinn then took from the pocket of the old woman, a key which unlocked a pnvaie tior from the gardens, by which she cuid leave the & unacquainted as sh was, with the Dientl0nt(J.

That day the prince, as usual, spent most of the time in the company of the fair Circassian, aud strove, by eveiy means, to dissipate the repugnance she i evidently felt towards him. -A length the conversation reverted to Lvei itigton. My messenger tells me, said the prince, that the infidel, whom Allah ab h..rs, cannot live through another day. I should be sorry that his snffenngs were to be so short, were it not tor the conditions suspended on his death. ' Sony," lepeated Coialinn, "sorry thai an innoceut man, has, hy death, been mercifully relieved from a living death. Is this the boasted clemeucy ot prince Abbas Mirza?" "Speak not to me of mercy," said the prince; "when a man, one too, who hates all good musculmen, has basely attempted, to rob roe of a flower which is Io be the light of my harem. Theie can be no mercy for him, but when you bav fulfilled vour promises, and 00 his death have become mine, perhaps 1 may for give his memory; aod I can almost for give him now, when I remember that it was the love, of Coralinn that drove hint on to ruin
"Claim not my promises," said Ora linn hastily, ''they were never yours." ''No matter by what name or by what means you become mine," replied the prince; "remember if he dies to day, you are mine to morrow." So saying.
he caught the lovely girl in his arms jand kssing her, retired, repeating as he left her, the woids -'to morrow, to mor row ! ' The lingering moments of the day at last were passed, and the dull shadows eresing come over the plain of Schiras; and though to Coralinn the minutes that in'ervened between the inter iewj and the haur that was to decide their fate, could not have appeared as long as they did to the loimented Everington; yet to her the suspense seemed an age To him, however, bright hope had returned, and that kept him from sinking under his accumulated misery. As evening came on, the bowl of wine, drugd deeper than before, was prod od; and while the beautiful and anxious Coralinn assumed a cheerfuloess she did not feel, a hilarity intended to deceive, she was pleaded to rind its contents rapidly disappearing before the unsuspecting and delightful attendant. Beloie the hour lixed upon arrived, the old woman was as still as death, and with an agitated hnd. and palpitating heart, by the means he had before used, i he maiden agam found herself beyond the walls of tiie city, ar.d near the spot where her presence vs so anxiously ex peeled and looked lor by Everington. but the guard had been changed, and a isentiuel more watchful had beenappointled to toe tati.iu, and to avoid discovery, Coraliuu thid herself in the clust&nng tiees, to winch sue had retired the night before, and Mom whence she could have an opportunity jf obi-ei ving all that passed.

As the direction -lnd discussion of measures of national and sUis policy are the business othe daily press, the full application ol Addison's remark is ntcessarily neglected and the consequence is, that vice, shielded by wealth and worldly influence, are abroad among th' people, not only unsuspected, Out courted and requited, and that a publication is necessary which will not only de ed, but exhibit tli"sc wolve9 111 sheep's I i u:. i. i i.-l. j;iiiiin u pumic -irn a uiariw uy wmi.ii t.ht is w ill I wurned fiom their intent,aud a set vice be rendered to s cie.ty In eflectipg this object, we shall pursue a yet untrodden path, one, where the necessary thorn shall be mingled (not concealed) with contrastin-r flowers.
