THE SOLDIER'S SON-IN-LAW. A young: Englishman, from gaming, love affairs, and other such gold scattering eniov ments, had so nearly i reached the dregs of his great-grandfatherVhereditary portion,that he could calculate the departing hour of his last guinea. As one evening he was return ing home from one of those haunts of diss! pation which he habitually frequented, feeble in body as in mind, and for the first time in life, casting a firm look upon the ruins of his . . i ii j.ii is. i . fortune, he could not well determine whether he should end his troubles by drawing a trig ger, or by throwing himself into the Thames. While he was thus wavering between fire and water, the very profound idea occurred to him not to lay- violent hands on himself. but to alio w himself to be conducted out of the labyrintlTof poverty by the fair hand of -i.i.i J -rr.. some wealthy bride, f With this consoling I 1 t . 1 . . A A 1 .1 I 1 t ' thought he went to bed, and already in noc turnal visions the rapid racers flew, the fair girls frisked around him, both of which, he was happy in thinking he might maintain in future upon the dowry of his wife. - On the following - morning he. reflected anew upon his plan, and found it unexceo tionable m every point excepting the very circumstance of not knowing where he was to find the rich heiress he wanted. In Lon don, where all the World regarded him as a spendthrift, it was hot i once to be thought of he saw that for the future he must throw his nets out elsewhere.; x After much cogitation and searching be at last hit upon an old rich Uolonel,uving upon his own estate, about twenty miles from the capital, who fortunately had no acquaintance in London, and was the father of an onlv daughter. Into the house of this gentleman, by means of a friend, to whom lie promised half the booty, he got himself introduced and receiv ed. I he daughter of the Col. was an awk ward country rgTrl, with round chubby cheeks like Ruben's cherubims, jand looked particu- larlyodd in the hand-medown attire of her sainted mother, which did not at all fit her, and was of course hot; of the most fashion able cut. Her mind. too. was as attractive as her attire ;l she r could only talk of hens and geese; and if any other topic came above board, her conversation was named to a yes,' or, a ' no, no;' all beyond this seemed to ner siniu. This wooden ptfppet was indeed a mighty contrast to the sprightly, ' gay, and lively nymphs with whom the young Biiton had, tmtil this period, been toying; but he care fully confined to the solitude of his own bosom the disagreeable feeling of this heaven and earth distant difference. His flattering tongue called me girl s stillness celestial innocence ; aad her swollen cheeks, he likened to the beauty of the full-blown damask rose. The end of the s'ong was, he turned to the father, and sued warmly Cor his daughter s hand. - l he Uolonei in his sixty years career through the world, had collected this much knowledge of .mankind, that however sly the young man had masked himself, he could. nevertheless, discover ' the fortune hunter peeping through the disguise. At first,- there fore, he thought of peremptorily refusing him permission to woo his daughter ; but, on the other hand, he thought, 4 the youth is fash lonable, and perhaps I may he doing him in justice : he, as yet, betrays no anxiety about theportion, and why should the girl, who is marriageable, remain longer at home? His request shall be, grarUed but his apparent disinterestedness shall stand a decisive trial!' The suitor was then informed that the . father had no objection to the match, provi ded his daughter would give her consent ; and si e, poor thing, replied, as in duty bound ' My father s will is mine.' Indeed could any thing else be expected ? 4 In the course of a few weeks the marriage ceremony was performed at the country house of the Colonel, and he instantly made his eon in law acquainted with his wife's portion, amounting to thirty thousand dollars. The dissembler acted asj if he wished to know nothing of the matter, and solemnly avowed that he had not as yet thoughton such things but had regarded only the noble qualities of his charming wife, whose? pure self was dearer to him than all the treasures of the world. ' - ' ' Upon this they sat down to dinner and the father in law urged and begged that they would make as much! haste as possible, as it was his intention that the young married people should set off that very afternoon for London, and 1 that he should acccompany them. j- i ;;;.::::.!,.,:. . . The son in law was confounded, and be gan to make some excuses about travelling on the first day of their happiness ; but the - 8oldier m a into . not tli at tVi vrA fntf1 as- soldier maintained that these were futile, as uring him that he had particular reasons for proceeding forthwith to the capital, and; that his matrimonial joys would be as well reali zed n liondon as in the country. What was to be done ? "Why, the journey was imme diately undertaken. The old man secured in a small casket,before the eyes of the bride groom, the portion of the bride, partly in gold and partly in bank notes, took it under nis arm, and placed himself by the side, of the young people in the carriage. i ne road raa through a forest, and scarce ly had they fairly entered it when two horse men darted out from trie brushwood, with masks upon their faces, and stopped the car nage, une ol the persons watched the pos till ion with a presented pistol, while the other approaching the coach window said. We are adventurers, and iequest you to give up instantly the portion of the bride !" I he colonel and his son in law swore and ranted but the robber coolly insisted upon his demand; After some parleying, however, the horseman bent towards the young man, and whispered in his ear That you may see that we are reasonable men. we leave you the choice of two things give us either the bride or her portion : for certain reasons it is quite immaterial to us, and moreover, no one shall ever know your decision.' Ihe bridegroom did not think long about the matter, for he whispered. Take the bride ?' Brother,' cried the robber to his companion. In the twinkling of an eye the soldier sei zed his gentle son in law by the neck, shook him violently, and exclaimed with a thun dering voice Ha ! villain ! so my conjec ture was not unfounded, that you cared not for my daughter, but merely for her fortune ! Heaven be praised that my child and my mo ney are not yet irrecoverably in your clutches'. Know, then, knave ! thelman who married yu was no clergyman,he was a brother-sol (.IB Ifl til- .!--- ---...

Since, then, you have laid' open yeur whole vileness, we shall have no, more connection. I shall return home with my daughter and m , my money, and you may go to London or to the devil, if you like. with these words he transplanted the as tonished bridegroom with a kick from the carriage to the road, and ordered the postil lion to turn about. The outlaw trudged back to London, and had, while upon the road, the fairest and best opportunity of determining whether he should now use a pistol, or throw himself into the river. THRILLING STORY A FIFTH AT WHIST. We had been playing all the evening at whist. Our stake had been gold mohur and points, and twenty on the rubber. Maxey, who is always luck)', had won five consecu tive bumpers, which lent a self satisfied smile to his countenance, and made us, ihe losers, look any thin? but Dleased. when he suddenly changed countenance, and hesitated t0 piay : this the more surprised us, since he wad one who seldom pondered, being so per fectly master of the game, that he deemed long consideration superfluous. Play away, Maxey; what are you about! impatiently demanded Churchill, one of the most impetuous. youths that ever wore the uniform of the body guard. Hush ! responded Maxey, in a tone which thrilled through us, and at the same time turning deadly pale. ' Are you unwell ? said another, about to start up, for he believed our mend had sud denlv been taken ill. For the love of peace, sit quiet !' rejoin ed the other, in a tone denoting extreme fear or pain, and he laid down his cards. If you Value my life, move not- What can he mean I has he taken leave of his senses V demanded Churchill appeal ing tomyself. Don't start ! don't move, l tell you !' fn sort of whisper I never can forget, uttered Maxey. If you make any sudden motion, I am a dead man ! We exchanged looks. He continued Remain quiet, and all may yet be well. have a Cobra Capella round my leg!1 Our first impulse was to draw back our chairs but an appealing look from tne vic tim induced us to remain, although we were aware, that should the reptile transfer but one fold, and attach himself to any other of the party, that individual roight already be counted as a dead man, so fatal is the bite of that dreaded monster. Poor Maxey was dressed as many old re sidents still dress in India namely, in bree ches and silk stockings ; he therefore the more plainly felt every movement of the snake. His countenance assumed a livid hue ; the words seemed to leave his mouth without that feature altering its position, so ....... w - riffid was his look so fearful was he lea the slightest muscular movement should alarm the serpent, and hasten his fatal bite. We were in agony little less than his own during the scene. He is coiling round !' murmured Maxey 4 I feel him cold- cold to my limb : and now he tightens ! for the love of heaven ball for some milk ! I dare not speak loud : let it be placed on the ground near me : let some be spilt on the i floof. Churchill carefully gave the order, and a servant carefully stipt out of the room. Don t stir : worthcot, you moved your head. Bv everything sacred, I coniure you not to do so again! It cannot be long ere my fate is decided. I have a wife and two children in Europe ; tell them that I died blessing them that ifi'y last prayers were for them i the snake is winding itself round my calf ;l leave them all I possess I can al most fancy I feel his breath; Great Heaven to die in such a manner - The milk was brought, and put down : a few drops were sprinkled on the floor, and the affrighted servant drew back. ,v Again Maxey spoke : N ro 1 it has no effect ! on the con trary he has clasped himself the tighter he has uncurled his upper fold ! I dare not look down, for I am sure he is about to draw back and give the bite of death more fatal preci sion? Again he pauses. I die firhf ; but this is past endurance ah ! no he has undone another fold, and loosens himself. Can he be going to some one else? We involuntarily started. For the gracious love of Heaven, stir not ! I am a dead man ; but bear with me. He still lossens ; he is about to dart! Move not, but beware ! Churchill, he falls off that way. Oh ' this agony is too hard to bear ! Another pressure, and I am dead. No ! he relaxes !' At that moment poor Maxey ventured to look down ; the snake had unwound himself ; the coil had fallen, and the reptile was making for the milk. I am saved ! saved !' and Maxey boun ded from his chair, and fell senseless into the arms of one of his servants. In another instant, need it be added, we were all dis persed : the snake was killed, and our poor friend carried more dead than alive to his room. That scene I can never forget : it dwells on memory still strengthened by the fate of poor Maxey, who from that hour pined in hopeless imbecility, and sunk into an early grave. Hours in Hindostan. A humorous author compares love to the small pox. The longer it is in making its appearanee, the more violent is the dis order. A quaint writer most quaintly saith, that soldiers die wholesale by the musket, and retail by nature. A coquette has been compared to those light wines, which every one tastes, but none buys. He was a Norman, who remarked, that going to law, was the art of cutting one's throat with a pen. Rabelais tells us of a story of one Philpot lacut, who, being brisk and hale, fell dead as he was pavincr an old debt : which per haps causes many, says he, not to pay theirs ! .!

Nothing is necessary to be said of the character of these Springs. 1 I hey are regarded as being inferior to none in the Southern country, and hundreds of invalids can attest their healing properties.
