But there was an obscurity vesting about.this young Arthur Benson, which the merchant had not b -en able to futln.in. In the midst of those reflections, to prove the truth cf the old adage, the young man w a.s announced as desirous of a few minutes' conversation ; cnniplet.-ly taking Mr. Ashley by sur- prise, who wass-iwirtain of the object of sj unusual a visit. - CTMJL morning, Dr. Beusoii; you are an vm •sp.'-U-J visitor, although I confess Alial I hud just been thinking about you.\ \ May I claim n. few minutes of your leisure '\ \ Certainly.\ \ I oball nut trespass long upon your amc.\ \ Siifvposc, sir,\ said Mr. Ashley, \ that wo dispi nso with the ;prefa.-e and come at once to the point.\ \ Then, sir, since y- n bid me speak uut I will do so, and Lrkflv.

Days of study and nights of intense toil passed in his medi- cal rc-earches all devoted to this one sub- ject. Mr* Ashley one day revived a letter from an old friend of hi- who was a n em- inent merchant in anotlivr city. This friend, an old ba.'!i\lor '•;. -tin -by, inform- ed him that he was ahtmt lo retire from business, and be-i-'i;lit- bi< assistance in with the strong minded woman, awaitinj the return of -the daughter,, then making a morning call at the Ashley's, who of late seldom appeared abroad. \Oh mamma, such news'\ exclaimed Emma, ruddcnly bursting into the room, looking flushed and heated. 11 Nothing serious, my dear, I hopo 1' said the m >tli >r'.

After some diffi- culty w 1th his mick, whu was his adopted father, he renounced his friends and came here under an assumed mn.ie.

GIUVK OONSOLATIOS.—rA passenger ou board a ship bound for California, who had been sea-sick all tlu wiy out to the Hue, one day went to the doctor iu a sad, supplicating tone, and accosted him with— \ Doctor, can you toll me what I shall be good for wheti I get to San Francisco, if I keep on this way 1\ \ Tell you, to be sure I can.
