choice ofevils, he wisely preferred leaving his
wife for a time. to the risk of losing his money
for ever. Tlte lady, asI have said. attracted
the Mussulmau’s attention. Being soittewliat
of a coqueite, the itovclty of ti Tttrkisli adorer

himself. Never hearing the least hint at her

stance in the case of M r. F , the present pro-
prietor of one of the most extensive estates in the
ctitttity of Middlescx. He had been for soirie
years a member of the Stock Excliange, when
on becoming unfortunate, he had to sttlfcrthe
indignity of having his naitie chalked on the
black board; art indignity to which poverty
more freqtieiitly than disltoitorable conduct is
subject. The loss of a handsome forturte, cotip-
letl with the treatment he had received front the
cotitiitittee, worked ltis feelings tip to such astute
of frenzy, thatchancing to pass Londoti bridge a
few days after the battle of VVaterloo, he, in des-
pair, threw the last shilling lic hztd in the world
over the bridge into the water.
That iitotnettt, but for the crowds of persons
who were passing and repassitig, he would ltave
thrown hiinselfover the parapet of the bridge,
and ettdcd his woes by endii.-g his existence.
From that instant he did form the puipose of
commitiiiig suicide ; and he began to tnove
slowly toward home with that view. Before he
had reached the other end of the bridge, he was
met by a Frencltman with whom he had been on
terms of great intimacy. He would have passed

The anncxad eloquent extract is taken frotii
the address of the Education Convention of
New Jersey. It iswltcit such a truly xtinori-_
can spirit is infused in the efforts of the ll‘lt.'ll(lS
of generttl ctlucatioii, that we may hope for the
bosi fruits of their labors. Bishop Doarie is
the author of the address, and we believe of
sentiments so worthy of a suit of this laitd of
frerdotii.
“ We utterly reptitliata, as unworthy, not of
frcetiicti only, but; of men, the narrow notion,
that there is to be an cdttczttioii for the poor, as
such. Has God provitlctl fortzhe poor at coarser

(il1i““, frztgrtttice, melody and beauty of luxttt-iaiit

the mind, that God has staniped the imprint of
a baser birtli,so that the poortitaii’s child knows,
w.t:h an inborn cei-taiiity, that his lot; is to crawl,
not climb? It is not so. God has not done it.
