Inquisition prison, at Lisbon.

The -moment he awoke he again began to re-
volve the ideas which were ‘uppermost in his
mind,_ when one thought occurred to him’, which
exhibited the possibility of gaining access to the
-mansiorf of the Inquisition without giving any
rise. to suspicion.» He instantly rose, rneditated
the'par't-which he" was to play, and composed his
tlress; his'figure,;his méin‘, so a_s best to suit‘ the
character he assumed. At length, when he
-thought himself sufliiciently prepared todeceive
all observation b_v an apparent simplicity, and to-
answer every objection that mightbe made to
his declarations, he sallied forth and irepniretl to
the holy o-ilice. It wasabout, t_en__ o’c_lock in‘=the
morning. He begged to speak to the grand In-
’quisitor. The guards and attendants’ treated
him with rudeness. ‘His eminence is asleep.’
‘ _I .will wait then.’ ‘ So you may‘ wait!- On

deed, perhaps you belong to some master 15 5 Yes,
to Don Estevan.’ In a moment the crew was
changed ; they took him for an informer. ‘ En-
ter, my good friend, his eminence shall be’ appri-

rotary the right reverend father Juan Mariti, of j

the .most illustrious order of Ste Dominic, to

him through a number. of nrzrgnificent apart-
ments, and brought him at length to tl'Ya*.'gof the
secretary, who was carelessly reclin‘ed'- .u'pon a

If Zamora hadpdared to give way to the feel—
ings of his soul, to what transports’ would henot
have yielded: but he ‘was obliged to confine them

3“ tl1ifl3'S{to apprise the Consul of his ‘success.
But for the ‘first days they might watch‘ his steps,
the powerful protection of :Father Juan Maria
had excited jealousy amongithe domestics of - the
house. It was necessary that he should deprive

-them of even the slightest pretext to -injure him.

He accordingly employed the first month in con-‘
cilliating the goodwill of every body around him.
He studied assiduously the catechism of Father
Juan‘, he anticipated his desires, be guessed at his
mi-efilioflsg and’ gratified even hissmallest wish-
es. VVhen presented by him to the grand In-
quisitor, he had been equally successful in re-
commending himself to that prelate ;withoutbe-

plug elated by this favour, antl witliout even boas.-'
_tir.g‘ of his credit among his inferiors, he-used_l_1is_j

utmost-iexertion -to -please them; he assisted
their labours, executed‘ their commissions, drank
with them, concealed or excused their errors, so
that in a short timehe became the object of uni-V
versal alfection "in the holy office. I - " . ~

-It was zabove-all,"to the alcaide and the guards
of the prisoners that he studied to recommend
himself.‘ 'l.'he"alcai(_le had “a, mistress of whom
he was jealous, and Zamora, by executing his
business "lg the house, enabled him to be absent
more frequently: The guards ‘were fatigued
with their duty, Zamora ‘watched for them, and
passed whole nights in their place. , He enter-

tained them with accounts of his travels and of

hisconntry, and sometimes a few bottles of wine
promoted..the hiliarity of the‘ evening. Stillall
this was very far from the object on which his
hcartwas set. Already, thanks to the‘ confidence
which he enjoyed, and to his reason, "he had got
access to the dungeons of more than fifty pris-
oners, but‘ without entering the only one which
he wished to behold.- How was h‘e to discover

— it ? Of .whom should he inquire ? The most in-

different. question mightoccasion his destruction.
However, ‘he went to visit his friend the consul,
who, delig‘ht'e’d at his success, supported his cour-
age, but was unable. to give‘ him anyhint of what

he wished to know. The fatigu'rn.g restraint of
~the part which he was -thus obliged to play for
for more than four months, and his cncreasingv
anxiety,;.unde_rmiued both his health and spirits,‘

and l_ie'would have probably sunkjbeneatli the

-.weight of his aliliction, hadnot Heaven come to

V his rel-iel’. _ V V. . _ \

A fourth, though snug and comfortable at home,

broad. He has heard of the goodly lands which
yield astonishing abundance, and almost without
labour. He ' sells all he possesseth, and on he
goes at random. He arrives ; when, lo ! he finds,
even there, a full measure of the thorns and this-
ties of the curse,’ and peradventure, finds himself
cheated at last out of his all. ‘ A

Insober truth, there is in our nature such a
restlessness of disposition, that we commonly
make toourselves the full half of the ills we suf-
fer. There is a something more, which we are
ever in search of, and never, get at; and, in this
blind and restless chase, we poison the cup by our
endeavours to sweeten it.

Of all the morbid habits, that of being dissatis-
fied with even the comfortable condition of life
which Providence has placed us _in, is one of the
most unfortunate. With persons of this cast, it
makes no difference though their success in life
be never so great ; the same sickliness of heart
cleaves to them as a garment, even after their for-
tunes have never. so much exceeded their_expect-
ations. . ’ '

One of this sort, was the Prince Potemkin of
Russia. From a low family, he had beeniraised
to the greatest wealth. and.the highest dignities.
And his biographer, who was a familiar acquaint-
ance of that prince, observes of him as here fol-
lows :—-‘ He is melancholy in the midst of pleas-
ures ; unhappy from the excessof good fortune ;

"satiatcd with every thing.’

‘The great art, is the part of living; and the
chief science, is the science of ‘being happy.’——
‘When I sayjza/zlzy, I mean not uualloyed, or [zer-
jbct happiness, which can never be enjoyed here ;
but only such a measure ofit as our Maker hath
put in our-power. And in order to enjoy a-nd se-
cure that measure of happiness, the short rules
following are worth remembrance. I

Liveconstantly in the unshaken belief _ of the
overruling Providence of the infinitely wise and
good, as Almighty Being, and prize his favor a-
hove all things-.

Be it rather your ambition to acquit yourself
well in your proper station, than to rise above it.

Despise not small gains, nor risk what you pos-
sess upon the uncertain chance _of suddenly in-
creasing it. ' , _ - _

and most probably you will find therein asmuch
comfort as is fitting for a frail and probationary
being, who is only joumeying through It toward ‘

“ I will arise, and go to my Fat/zer.-". ’

. In this parable; our divine Master “ spake as
never man spake.” VVhere is there aconscien-'
tious son who has_long been separated from akind
father, and who has often rneditate(l,"dut‘ing a
painful absense, on his own former remissness in
filial affection and obedience, ' and who has ‘been
brought to a true sense of tliiiigs by_tl1e5pr'essui-e‘
of varied affliction ; whose heart will not feel the
tumultuous fervency which impelled the excla-
mationof the repentant prodigal--“ I -will arise,
amigo to ‘my father ?” ;j

Such ason, if on the eve of return, will be led
to see new beauties in this divine allegory, to ex-'

tend hisreflections to‘ its spiritual instructions,

and to embrace with a warmer heart that heaven-
ly -Friend and "Brother who delivered these-in-'

Althoughsome have gone far greater lengths
in iniquity than others, all‘ of’ us have counted

have renounced his authority, and "with t-he pora.
tion. of good things which his bountyshowers
“ on the just and on‘ the unjust,” have wandered
far from him into the regions of sin, and have hi-
red ourselves to the great “ enemy of righteous-
ness.” We have submitted in heart" at least, to
the most degrading avocation, far more loath-
some to the sight" of our holy Father, than was-

-the feeding of “‘ unclean” swine in the viewcf

the cercmonious Israelites. . Thus we have be-
come poor indeed in spiritual treasures ; and are
in a perishing condition,‘ far from rigliteotfsness;
VVe are left to‘g‘o on, that at the grand court of
Heaven our mouths may be stopped‘ ;‘ or that in“
view of our wrctchedness we ‘may feel our ina-
bility to regain our squandered estate, and see
theinevitable (loath that awaits us ‘in our present’
career, and mayat length subdue the pride of our
hearts, and become animated with deep repent-
ance and ardent love ; and desiringbut alowly

“ I will a1rise amigo to my Fatima” ,

Nor will the kind Parent of the universe dis-
own the returning prodigal. In the fullness of
his love and mercy he" will haste to mcet him,
and acknowledge him a son. He will take off his
defiled garments of sin, and clothe him in the
robe of the Redeemer’s, i‘igy,,yotisness. .1-Every
grace that can ornament thesoul shall be bestow-
ed npon him. The world, like the elder brother,
