An acquaintance of Lord Bacon, who went to hang himself—only part ially—lost his foot ing, and was cut down at the last extremity, having nearly paid for his curiosity with his life. He declared that he felt no pain, and his only sensation was the Are below his eyes, which changed first to black and then blue. These colors are even a source of pleasure. A Cap tain Montagnac, who -was hanged in France during the religious war, and rescudd from the gibbet at the intercession of Viscount Turenne complained that, having lost all pain in an in stant, he had been taken from a light of which the charm defied all description. Another criminal, who escaped by the breaking of the cord, said, after a second of surffering, a fire appeard, across it the most beautiful avenue of trees. Henry IV of France sent his physician to question him, and when mention was made of a pardon the man answered coldly, that it was not wot th the asking. The uniformity of the descriptions render it useless to multiply instances. They till pages in every book of medical jurisprudence. All agree that the un easiness is quite momentary; that a pleasurable feeling immediately succeeds; that colors of var rious hues start up before the sight; and these having been gazed on for a trival space, the rest is oblivion. The mind, averted from the reality of the situation, is engaged in scenes the most remote from that which fills the eye of the spectator—the viie rabble, the hideous gallows, the struggling form that swings in the wind. —London Review. A Frenchman in Canada thus advertises his better half, who had left his lied and board: ‘Xotess—My wife—that’s Catrine—she left my house—shunt ax me—any man trus him on my name that is loss for you.

Mr. Morrow—Dear Sir : * * * * In regard to Mr Niles, 1 can say, I have been more or less acquainted with hit •: for some 12 years. 1 have known hi mas a scholar and a teacher, and consider him an honest and reliable man. He is active and energetic, often so far as to go beyond his strength He is frank and open-hearted, and possesses an extremely hopeful disposition. He sets his standard high, and in justice I must say, he strives nobly to come up to it. As yon would infer from tlie above, lie is a hard workiti” man in School—his whole soul is in his work. He has a happy faculty for ‘caking up and securing the attention of his Pupils, r never knew an instance of a scholar who was not devotedly attached id him, and no one who knows him will question his success a* a teacher. I think he would be a popular man in any community where an honest disposition to do the best one can, would be appreciated. * * * * Yours with much respect, Nov. 19, 1656—30—5 - 8 G SMITH.
