JONA. A. HUDSON. March 3. tfso A M W OT PLEASURE Lord Chesterfield, a man of fortune, having in his power the means of every unhallowed gratification, and whose life was worn out in tire grossest sinful indulgence in the close of life made the following confessions, without any good hope of a Letter life : “ l have run the silly rounds of business and of pleasure, and I have doue with them all. I have enjoyed all the pleasures of the world and consequently, know their futility and do not regret their loss. I appraise them at their real value, which is truly very low ; tvliert&s those who have not experienced, always over-rate them. They only see their gay out side, and are dazzled with their glare. But l have been behind the scene. I have seen all the coarse pullies and dirty ropes, which exhibit and move the gaudy machine. I have seen and smelt the tallow candles which illu minate the whole decoration to the astonishment and admiration of an ignorant multitude. When I reflect back upon what I have seen, what I have heard, and w hat 1 have done, I can hardly pursuade myself, that all that frivolous hurry, and hustle, and pleasure of the world had any reality; butl look upon all that is past as one of those romantic dreams which opium commonly occasions ; and I do by no means desire to repeat the nauseous Hose for the sake of the fugitive dream. .Shall I tell you that I bear this melan choly situation with that meritorious constancy and resignation which mos’ people boast ol ? No, for 1 really cannot help it. 1 bear it—because I must bear it, whether I will or po und think of nothing but killing time, now he is become mine enemy. It is iny resolution to sleep in the carriage the remainder of the journey.’* An irresistible Appeal.— An Irish footman, having carried a basketof game from his master to a friend, waited a considerable time for tfie customary fee, but finding no pres ent appear, scratched his head, and said ; “ Sir, if my roaster should say, 4 Paddy, what did the gentle man give you what would your honour have me to tell him r’ 4.
