A UEIMAPcK AliLE VISIT TO AN AS TROLOtJ Eli. I'llOM II A I'll A WORK ON iHAGU. I( was late one dteaty evening in the; i of our Lord 1828, when a devotee In the science of Judicial and llonny An.l.i, who had cdilained .-..ine releh'ily auiong On y;rcnt and wealthy in London, had n.-wL trimined his lamp, and scaled liiui-clt i.) pm sue the invest iatioii of n pmlileiii in ii r-t uoiiiy which pioetited some cm ions pheno mena, lie hud not long lieen m-cupii-d a we have u entioned, wlieu a lii'ioiis lii.giue of the door-bell, nceompanic'd by a l-og no.! hasty knocking, muiounced the unival .t a visitor, who was appatently tmt li:tlo ojited with the virtue of palience. Widuuil dein ing to auail the unnouiiceuicinl of his n.Kiit and business, Ihe inlimh-i enUued the study of (he man of se ienct', with an air of nii chaleneo and sell-iissuiance that lu-sjx.ko him one who felt himself at home in any t!-ini ii. he choose lo honor with his pic-eiue. J'he slrangei seemed a man sfimi-wh.il a.i vanced iu veais: fur. desoile a soil ot lon i .1 ' ' i elastic spi ing in his uaik. and an iH-imiul hilarity and spi ighlliness ol manner, it was evident lhat youth had for many a season left his l-iotsleps, and given place I stiffening and corroding tine. SOU iheie was much ol gince and dignity iu all his motions notwith standing ihe air of iiffeclaliou which evei accompanies. the attempt to appear more vigo rous and youthful than we liuly ate. lie enleted the nppailuient, and look, nl inosl without bidding, a sea! beside the table. The Astrdlooer, accu-lotiied to die eeeeiibi cities of rank ami genius, pietended not in notice the. poculiai ities exhiiiiied by his visit or, but pursued his le.utied calculation to the entiie solution ol his problem. 'J'he slranger, who had sat cpiii tlv and grimlv by until the lask was finished, con trolling his impatience with an c tf .it th.it was perceptible, now addiessed his host in a tone of mild and gentlemanly c ouitesy, and re quested the fa vol of his attention to a ques tion in tegaid to his futuie destiny. " I was born," he began, " in the nieii.lian of this met-opolis; but the exact time (that i to sav, the very hour and intiitite) oi my eu teiiui: this woild I know tint with ulll -ieul precision to establish the data you probably require lo east, what I be lieve you call, my ualivilij.

"That i- indeed the name,' leUirmd the strange', " and asan adept iu that science I ciavefiom you some gliriipses of my destiny." 'Yourwi-h shall be complied w ilh," an swered the Astrologer. "The stats are kind nud benifjcent to menials who tojose thei' trni iii such insii net ions as thev oiofic-r, and much of good might be attained and mote ol evil be avoided if thi-ir sins and portents were but mote leganied."' "To some extent, oiy opinion coincides with youisv' iepli-d the stianget, then taking up a book from off the table he began to peruse it w ith ihe appeal a nee great interest, as i unwilling by fuilher conversation to delay the exec ution of the woik in hand.

Upon the cover ol ii small memorandum book, enclos ing a gratuity, which he lell upon tho f-tutif table, was Mampod ihe imperial crown of ibit.iiu, and beneath was tho cypher of the king.
