The author of" Recollections of the Pcninsu- .. gives, In the Winter's Wreath, an account fofln diirllist u-lin had killed his antagonist. We arc not without a hope, that this affecting narrative may, perchance meet the eye of more than one of the rising generation, to whom r those false and pernicious notions of personal I dignity are familiar, which too often lead to the calamitous results that ari here depicted. Of all "the delusions to which the silly pride 'l and real, weakness of mankind has given rise, there is hone so utterly indefensible as this of murdering each other, by way oi wiping away what is called a stain upon our honor. hat Ftain, we may well ask, pan tarnish that honor more indelibly than the blood of a fellow crea ture? Who deserves to be shunned by socie ty, tr tfe exiled from. its ranks, to be driven in to the solitude of his own despair, more than the man who, for some imintcntionaro hence twic momentary burst of passion, takes away the life which the Deity has given to one o l)is children? But. let us hear the remorse o the murderer from his own confession: we know not whether the story be drawn from fan rv : or founded on fart : nnr is it ofanv ronse quence one way or the other, inasmuch as the ; . , moral is true m all its part.s.fand the example impressive. The adversaries arc said to have been friends of their earliest youth, and to have entered;. 'the army together, Upon some occa sion, the spirits of one of them were particularly exuberant, and, in a playful moo,d, he tipped off hi friend's cap in the presence of his fellow officers; an act which was .unexpectedly repaid by a blow that knocked him down. The con fc.qucn.rcs arc related in these' Words., i y.l was instantly picked up by a tall, vulgar young man, who had 'lately joined the regiment by exchange, in conseque nce, of some affair of honor, in which he had bcn engaged with his : captain, and who was arcadyfagent of mischief. This business,' said he, 'can onlyJrcusxiUled in pnc wav, and the sooner the better. ' Sil cart my eyes1; around to look for Ilijl. lie had caught up his cap was walking away bare-hefa'cd, and two brother ensigns were fol lowing him, one of w hom I knew had a pair of duelling pistols. A little fellow, who had only joined a few days, and was not more than fifteen, nijd "to whom we had both been kind, came to inc. O Vernon, said he, run after him ; make all, up; it was all foolishness : why, it was only play till he got vcxcd,;and that was ytour fault. I am sure he is sorry. Let us all agree to say iinthing about it at mess, and to keep itfrom the Colonel." ' ; . ' "Such was the thought of the artless boy. Ob, that he had had man's wisdom ! I mean not that of -such men as were with us then; for lny tall friend told him to hold his nonsense, ' and remember that officers were not school boys. To think that, of the seven persons present, there was hut one pear.emakccr, and he a child! Had he but gone to the Colonel or any of the senior officers, there would not have been wautingsome worth and wisdom to stand between the jboys and their calamity. As it ;was, we were both in the hands of wicked and unreasonable men, bjth the dull and passive slaves of a cruel custom. "My tall friend wentfhomc with mc to my ibarrack room, and wrbtc a challenge, which I copied, scarce knowing what I did. He car ried it himself, and was long away. How jhusy wicrc my thoughts during that'interval ! He will make an apology methought: he Will j!do any thing rather than meet me. 1 1 never snw such a fellow, said the Wretch who had volunteered lo be my second. 4 Knock a man clown, and then oiler him an apology! Why, iyou would both be turned but of the service, he for offering, and you lbr-acccpting it. 'I would give my lite,' I replied, 4 to avoid this meeting if it Were possible.' 'Well,' said mv second, it is not possible; however, it. is a pleasant and safe duel for you ; after receiving your shot, he II of course fire in the air and make his apology.; but go the ground he must ; and you need not be uneasy, perhaps you may miss him?' , ' Perhaps I might miss him,' said I ; 'Whv I would not-fire at 'him nor hurt a hair of his head far the universe.' 'As to that,' re plied my mentor, aim at him you must; you are the challenger. Yoti must not call out a .man and make a fool of him, and a mockery of a duel, and exnect a couple of gentlemen to stantl looking on as seconds at: such a piece ;f i chicken hearted child'?; play. No, no, that H jvill ixevcr do; I feel for you my dear fellow, - yr honor is at stake.

I 4Iy brain was weaned with its working T j awaked at four o'clock and got a light, wWhcd I I and dressed myself. My servant, whom ! ij roused, stared at me and asked if I was unwell L I said 'a little so.' 'Might he fetch the doctor f then?' 'JN'0 - " The only .comfort I could find or make was r ; in the resolution to fire wide of the mark ; the the- only prayer mjf heart could breathe, was trio 'fervent wish thai I could inanage it well. 'All's well that ends well,' said I to myself. We shall be friends again at breakfast as if nothing had happened. Arthur loves me and I him better than all others. " It waated some minutes to five when my odious seconcl arrived, with his pistols wrapped in a silk handkerchief. We exchanged but very few words; but, as we walked to the ground, he said unfeelingly, 'This will not be a pistol for two coffee for one kind of a duel but a very-harmless one, I will answer tor it my younker, so you need not look so pale. My very blood ran chill as he spoke, and I felt terrified : : " Every crime Has, in the moment of perpetration, Its own avenging angel, dark, miegivings, An ominom sinking at tne inmost neart." "We proceeded in silence to the sands. It was a dull misty morning. Hill and his second were already there. Hill's second joined mine, and they conferred a little together. I hoped that the duel.might yet be averted, I longed o run over to Hill where he was walking up and down about thirty yards from me, and to press him to mv heart. The delay arose from Hill s second not chusing that the meeting should actually take place till a surgeon was in readiness to give any succor that might be nee ded. The ground was measured, but they did not suffer us to take post till they saw the as sistant surgeon about half a mile off, walking t ' mi towards us. Mv second had so contrived mat ters, tTat this amiable doctor should know noth ing of the duel until the parties were going forth; and, even then, had not informed him who were the principals. , "As I found myself opposite to the youth whom I best loved, with a pistol in my hand, my eyes swam, and I felt sick and giddy. All the presence of rnjnd I had was intent upon making sure to miss him. I heard the words, ready, present.' I raised my pistol, with a careful slowness, and (according to the rules, when I got the aim I designed) I fired. In that moment guilt, remorse, and despair fell, as it were upon me, and they have dwelt with me ever since : for twenty long years they have held me, in their cruel hands. My hope shud dered as I pulled the fatal trigger. I dared not follow the shot with my eyes, but I beared the fall, and I fainted upon the earth. When I recovered my senses, I was laid by the side of Arthur Hill upon the sand, and he was looking at me kinder and sadder than I ever saw any body upon earth look, and, in a few minutes with a heavy sirh, he died. Poor Arthur! I killed him, and I have never been quite well since not to say quite right. That hymn you heard me speak was found in Arthur s desk, copied out in his own hand, and his friends sent it to mc, two years ago to comfort me, and it docs for the time ; but I am vcri" miserable ! good sir, very. From the Jurcnille Souvenir. Spunlc and Peril. There is a story, and which I hclieve is fact, of two boys going to a jackdaw's nest from a hole tinder the belfry window in the tower of All Saints' Church, Derby. As it was imjiossible to reach it stan ding within the building, and equally impossible in ocponrl lr flint Vin! rrVi fnirn vx-iflimif flrT rn solved to put a plank through the window; and while the heavier boy secured its balance by sitting on the end within, the lighter boy was to fix himself on the opposite end, and from that perilous situation to reach the object of their desire. So far the scheme answered. The little fellow took the nest, and, hnding in it five nil i-i a 4-u . fledfred vonnn- birds, announced the news to - J . .-r,. , v j i then I'll have three.' Nay,' exclaimed the other indignantly, I run all the danger, and I'll have three.' 'You shall not,' still maintained the boy in the inside ;' you shall not. Prom ise mc three, or I'll drop you!' 'Drop me, if yon please, replied the little hero; 'but I'll promise you no more man two ; upon which his companion slipped off the plank. Up tilted the end, and down went the boy, upwards of a hundred feet to the ground. The Httle fellow, at the moment of his fall, was holding his prize by their legs, three in one hand, and t wo in the other; and they, finding themselves descending fluttered out their pinions instinctively. The bov, tod, had on a carter's frock, secured round the neck, which, filling with air from beneath, buoyed ,him up like a balloon, and he descend ed smoothly to the ground; when, looking up, he exclaimed to his companion, ' Now you shall have none!' and ran away, sound . in every limb, to the astonishment of the inhabitants, who, with inconceivable horror, had witnessed his descent. Propensity of Germans to travel. In Ger- many all classes travel, from the sovereiarn prince down to the poorest mechanic. This locomotive existence narrows in a wonderful degree, the circle'of national prejudice. . For enlightened and impartial opinions on the man ners and superstitions of foreign countries, commend me to the German. The approach of the curzeit as they emphatically style the bathing season produces much the same ef fect as the 12th of August with us ; every body flocks to the country. At this period, all thatis distinguished for rank and fashion in the land, may be found assembled at some of their nu merous watering-places; when the traveller, at a glance, may contemplate all the lights and shadows of the German lif,. d,n ; prince and his;Morganic consort; the forei rn fimmsicr, ana mc native statesman tlr r ferences and protocols ; the .rich Jew banker, rom Frankfort orLeipzic; crowds of foreigners from every climate ; hosts of counts and barons soldiers and students, merchants and mechanics black-legs and dames de mnne virtujx en gaged in some beautiful romantic sport, ardent in the pursuit of health or its antihesisdissi pation. ; The class of artists, who form the base of this Corinthian pillar, outnumber the votaries of pleasure, in the same ratio as the camp-followers of an Indian army exceed the comba tants.

Prodigious Memory of Nanolean. His as tonish lnsf memorv made him msutpr nf all a -J v. things, not only in their ensemble, but also in their most minute details. The consequence of this was, that his conversation was extreme ly perplexing for men who were not perfectly acquainted with the subjects they were to de monstrate. It was his constant application to an ftorts ot attairs, and his excellent method ol classing them in his mind, that enabled him to carry his success so far. It has frequently hap pened to me to be less sure than he was of the distance of places, and of a number of particu lars, in my department, which he knew well enough to correct. M. de Talleyrand told me that, as he was travelling one day with him from Boulogne to Paris, a short time after the ar my had left the course of the banks of the Rhine, the Emperor met a detachment of soldiers go ing to join their corps, which they did not know where to find. Having inquired the number of their regiment, he immediately calculated the day of their departure, and the road they hadtaken, and said to them your battalion is at such a place. The army was, at that time, two hundred thousand men strong. The admi rable order in which he arranged his ideas, and his 'prodigious memory, made him as much bcldved by the soldiers as respected by the of ficers of the army. Every one knew that he never forgot the name of a brave man, and that it was always sufficient to recall to his mem ory some brave action to insure its recompense ; and whenever he promised any thing, he al ways kept his word. Memoirs of Lavallettc. Honour. An outrageous, ungoverned inso lence and revenge frequently passes by the name of sense of honor. Honor is indeed a noble thing ; and therefore, the word which sig nifies it must be very plausible. But, as a rich and glistering garment may be cast over a rot ten fashionably diseased body, so an illustri ous, commending word maybe put upon a vile and ugly thing, lor words are but the garment, the loose garments of things ; and so may easily be put off and on, according to the humour of him who bestows them. But the body chan ges not. though the garments do. What is hon- er but the height, and flower and top of moral ii, anu uie uiinosi reiinement oi conversa tion ? But then, every ruffian and drunken sot is not a competent judge of it ; nor must every one who can scoff at a black coat or a clergy man, or com behind a man and run him' through, and be pardoned for it, have presently a claim to that thing called honor ; which is as much the natural result, as it is the legal re ward of virtue. irtue and ,honor are such indispensable companions, that the 'heathens would admit no man into the temple of honor who did not pass to it through the the temple of virtue. It is, indeed the only stated, allowed way ; it is the high road to honor, and no man i cver robs or murders upon that road. South There is a curious quarto volume, by the traveller Buckhardt, consisting of Arabic Prov erbs, which he gathered at Cairo, and transla ted and explained. They have entertained us, v. r w i , r tne modem Lvptians. AVc select a lew of I . - j tnem as specimens " If God purposes the detraction of an ant, he 'allows wings to grow upon her;" which means that the sudden elevation of persons to stations above their means or capacities, may often cause their ruin. "The capiain of the ship loves thee, wipe thy hand on thesail." He who is favored by government, or the people, may do any thing with impunity. " Like the idiots, tic a turban of straw .round thy head, but do not forget thy engagements." Play the fool as much as thou wilt, but observe thy promises and contracts. ' The wise with a wink, the fool with a kick" (arc taught to understand.) "Throw him into the river, and he will rise with a fish ih his mouth." Said of a lucky or highly fortunate person. "The tongue of the wise is in his heart The heart of the fool is in his mouth." "The dream of the cat i? all about the rnice." "Strike the innocent, that the guilty may con fess." A pretty judicial maxim. It is related that in an intricate law case, the Kadhy caused a person avowedly innocent to be bastinadoed. When the poor man complained, the Kadhy declared that he beat him merely with the hope that the real culprit might be induced to Confess out of compassion. "Scarcer than the nose of the lion." Said of a rare thing, because it is difficult to take a lion by the nose. "A mouth that prays, a hand that kills." Hypocrites. "They said to the mouse, 'take these two pounds of sugar and carry this letter to the cat;' ' the fee is good enough (she replied) but the business is tiresome." "If a blow were to fall from heaven, it would not light on any thing but his neck," said of the unfortunate. "If I should find my friend in the wrong, I reproach him secretly ; but in presence of com pany, I praise him." "People resemble still more the times in which they live, than they resemble their fathers." The general state of society, its no tions and manners, have more influence upon man than education, or the example set by his parents. Too true.
