I.UWKBT CITY CIRCULATION.
TTKST'AY MORNING IHw. n, IBM
The Bhiiv'.k or Siohs.—Let us take,
tor example, that pathetic swindle, the
Bridge of Sighs. There are few, I fancy
who Hill hear it mentioned without as
sociating its mystery and secrecy with
the taciturn justice ot the Three, or some
other machinery af the Sereoest Repub
lic's policy. Whei| l entered it the fjrat
time I was at the pains to call about me
the sad company of those who had passed
its corridors from imprisonment to death
—and, I doubt not, many excellent tour
ists bars done the same. I was some
what ashamed to learu afterward that I
had, on this occasion, beeu in very low
society, and that the melancholy com
pany which I then conjured op was com
posed entirely of honest rogues who
might, indeed, have given as graceful
and ingenious excuses tor being there as
the galley slaves rescued by Don Qaix.
ote—who might even Itave been very
picturesque—but who were not at all
the material with which a well-regulated
imagination would deal. The Bridge of
Sighs was not built till the end of the
sixteenth century, and no romantic epi.
sode of political imprisonment and pun
ishment (except that of Antonio Fos
carini) occurs in Venetian history later
thau that period. But tbe Bridge ot
Sighs could hove nowise a savour of
sentiment from any such episode, being,
as it was, merely a means of Communi
cation between the criminal courts sitting
in the Ducal Palace, and the Criminal
Prison across the little canal. House
breakers, cutpurse knaves, and murder,
ers do not commonly impart a poetic in
terest to places which have known them ;
and yet these are the only sort of suffer
ers on whose Bridge of Sighs the whole
sentimental world has looked with path
etic sensation ever since Byron drew at
tention to it. The name of the bridge
was given by the people from that opn
letice of compassion which enables the
Italians to pity even rascality in difficult
ties.— Venetian Life, by Wm. D.
Ho we Us.
Procrastination.—A lady who
found it difficult to awake as early as
she wished in the morning, purchased
an alarm watch. These watches are so
contrived as to strike with a very loud
whirring noise, at any hour the owner
pleases to set them. The lady placed
her watch at the head of the bed, aud
found herself effectually roused by the
long, rattling sound. She immediately
obeyed the summons, and felt better all
day for her earlvrising. This continued
for several weeks. The alarm watch
faithfully performed its office, and was
distinctly heard, so long as it was obeyed'
But, after a time, the lady grew tired of
early rising; and, when she was waken,
ed by the noisy monitor, she merely
turned herself and slept again. In a
few days the watch ceased to rouse her
from slumber. It spoke just as loudly
as ever, but she did not hear it, because
she had acquired the habit of disobeying
it. Finding that she might just as well
be without au alarm watch she formed
tie wise resolution, that if she ever
heard the sound again, she would jump
up instantly, aud that she never more
would allow herself to disobey the friend
ly warning. Just so it is with conscience.
Il we obey its dictates, even to the most
trifling particulars, we always hear its
voice, clear and strong, but, if we allow
ourselves to do what we have some fears
may not be quite right, we shall grow
more and more sleepy, until the voice of
conscience has no longer any power to
awaken us.
A Touching Incident.—At a second
class hotel in Frankfort, Ky., a few days
since, a little girl entered the bar room,
and in a pitiful tone told the barkeeper
that her mother sent her there to get
eight cents.
“ Eight cents!” said the bar keeper.
“ Yes sir.” } ' ,t
“ What does your mother want of
eight cents? I don't owe her any
thing.” , *,
“ Well,” said the child, “ father spends
all his money here for rum, and we have
no bread to-day. Mother wants to buy
a loaf of bread.”
A loafer suggested to the barkeeper
to kick her out.
“ No,” said the bar keeper. I’ll give
her mother the money, and if her father
come back here again, I’ll kick him
out.”
Humanity owes that bar keeper a
vote of thanks.
Life.—What is it?.For durability it
is like the morning cloud, the withering
rose, the unsubstantial shadow. It is
like the grass "which to day is, and to
morrow is cast into the oven.” How
frail and uncertain is human life.l Its
feeble light is quenched at all seasons
and all hours of the day. But frail and
fleeting as it is, its results no mortal
can estimate. It is the forming period
of the soul’s existence. We are here
being educated for eternity, forming
characters which will be as imperisha
ble as the throne of God itself.
Reform.—He who reforms himself
Has done more towards reforming the
public than a crowd of noisy, impotent
patriots.
—Business neglected 'is business
lost.
