If any one desires to know ex actly what quantity of sleep his own. constif tution requires, he may very easily make the experiment which I made about 60 years a go.

"Gentlemen!' at length he said, in a tone and with an air at once so mild and courteous, nky, so polished, as fairly to give the lie, as it were, tb his gigantic and threat ening figure:. Gentlemeni I have heard witii great regret that some member of this club has been so indiscreet as to calumniate the characterof MaryvNeil, which, from the part I have taken, i feel identified with my own: if any present hath done so, I doubt not he; will now havt- the candour and cour age to avow it. IVho avpws it?' The dog looked up at him again; 'he returned the glance, but contented himself fortihe pre sent, with patting; the animal's head and was silent: so were we. The extreme surprise indeed with which our party was seized, bordering almost on consternation, rendered alj consultation as to a reply out of ;he question and never did I see the old axionAhai '"what is every bo dy's business is nobody's business,' more thoroughly exemplified. A few of the com pany whispered each to his neighbour, and I perceived one or two steal a fruit knife un der the table cloth, in case of extremities; but no one made any reply. We were eigh teen in number; and as neither would or could answer for the others, it would re quire eighteen replies to satisfy the giant's single query; and I fancy some of us could not have replied to his satisfaction, and stuck to the truth into the bargain: r "He repeated his demand (elevating his tone each time) thrice: Does any gentle man avow it?" A faint buzz now circulated round the room, but-there was no answer whatsoever.. Communication was cut off, and there was a dead silence; at length our visiter said, with a loud voice, that he must suppose if any gentleman! had made any ob servations or assertions against Mary Neill's character, he would have the courage and spirit to avowjt: therefore, continued he I shall take4t for granted that my infor mation was erroneous;-and in thatj point of view, I regret having 00177 yoursociety.U And without another word, he bowed three times very low and retired backwards to wards the door, (his dog: also backing. out with equal politeness) where, with a! salute doubly ceremonious, Mr. Rowan ended this extraordinary interview.5 On the first of his departing bows, by a simultaneous im -pulses we all rose arid returned hs salute, almost touching the table with our noses, but still in profound silence, which bowing on both sides,- was repeated, as I have said, rill he was fairly put of the room.
