our attention to the Monastery. 'lhere

Ily secluded tor all reasonable purposes,

the top oi tlie rising ground which it
I covi rs, is the temuie seiuiilarv, winch is
connected with tbe -Nunnery, and forms
tbe most interesting feature of the institu

Having very shrewdly provided our

lister Agnes leading the way, and twis

it in the \ait o! years, bringing
up the re,it. I ivo slorii s are occupied
is tin sleeping apartments. 'i he beds
are arrafiged ,t long halls—with thin
wh.ie curtains round them all. The air
oi comfort, neatness, aitd propriety is m
descrihahhi. As to cleanliness, I never
sin it it . such perfection, as -s maintain
ed ail over the convent. r i liese dormito
ries, in particiil tr, strm k me as purity
self. The beds were in all-approvitble
mder and wliittencss. I liked the outside
o; all I saw—and this same unaccounta
ble spirit of investigation which I always
five in these things, i was curious to see
whether the interior corresponded. It
was therefore the most natural thing in
the world just to turn down the pillow ol
one oi tin si- iittle nests. The prim cap
and night-dress laid so quietly. *nd pretti
ly* there, that I was convinced ail wa*
right and fine enough iorthe most tastid
ious. Indeed it was enough to make one
grow sleepy to see the .“means and appli
ances” of slumber so capitally arranged.
Our gentle sister now led s into a sep
arate building, called the Odeon, appro
priated to instruction in Music, and to
lectures on natural science. I understood
that one of the priests excelled as a lectu
rer. Be that as it may, he has all the ,ul-
sol a superior apparatus. ! nev
er saw, at any our colleges or univcrsi
tfi'S,a more canuplet* or beautiful one. It
is kept hi most admirable order, and does
honor to the establishment. A splendid
piano occupies a portion of tins tine and
airy room, and a number ol paintings

very mi|Hising, and well executed. It

'Fhis concluded our perambulations in

in short 1 wanted to see tbe Convent. 1
was already carried back to the days of
Henry Btit, before bis fit of destruction
came on—w hen these places Into, in my
imagination, so much sweit mystery
and now I wanted to ke» p up tiie delu
sion. Msler Agues refit red us to the
4!onasiery, and so we gently took our
l ave. 4Ve then entered the first iui -
tioned postern door, and rung tin a man.
Mie came to a little ajH-rture, reqeesteo

material. In a moment .» pomon was
sL'p|ieil aside, and the holy Bister ap
peared —and in answer to our enquiries,
said that we had corneas far as we could.
!So all tve had to do was to look through
iltt grate, see tiie quiet pale prisoners w ho
vvu't speaking with us—vXchange a tew
woids o; worldly greeting, luur tin slide

Tins was a poser to luy poor fancy;—so,

Island jurors become for suliening down
murder to niansiuuiditer, that they had
neqijiied Mum vvirur the reputation ol
the juries of a yertuin county in Ireland.
“Where are you going?” said an irish
man to a culprit on his way to the gai
Tows. “Only going to be hanged!”
Well, ami what lor?” was the* ques

It is, however, an honorable trait
in the character of Hhode island juries,
that they are thus tender o! human life.
