piece of an old newspaper in which my shot had bcen wrapped for wadding hut stopped a moment to examine what was on it as is my custom anfl found the fallowing imitation of one of my favorite writers it i i one of those traits of life tfiat may find a better ap plication than in confining the powder in a fowling piece : lt may tend to restrain that restless infernal spirit of detraction which rankles and testers tn tlie breasts of some lhe corporal truly remarks that no discretion can guard against it no character however fair — it may be blanched by the severest trials — but may be stai ncil by the vile and polluted tongue of s!_mdei 1 have known even the sanctity of the felnale character inva tied — would vou believe it ? even by luir otrn see ! a hl'ohtsllan traits of life ■ % were it the law said my uncle tohy that every slanderer should lose his tongue we should soon become a dunil people 1 hope you don't think wc should ull fm feit our talking mem ber observed my iiunt prudy hy no means re v plied my uncle but lhc fear nf losing it would restrain us from talking and so then you think retorted my nuiit that a body can speak nothing but slander ? my uncle nodded assent three fouiths of thc daily chit chat of the whole village is slander d — me if it isn't vociferated the corporal there are people continued the corpo ral vv'.'u can't even breathe without slandering a neighbour you judge too severely replied my aunt prudy — very few are slandered who do not deserve it that may hc retorted the corporal but i have heard very slight things said oi you thc face of my aunt kindled with anger sic ! she exclaimed me ! slight things said of mc ? they say answered the corporal gravely uml drawings his words to keep her in suspense — that lhat you arc no better than you should be fury flashed from thc eyes of my aunt who are the wretches ? i hope they slander no one who docs not deserve it said the corporal jecringly as he left thc room the feelings of my hunt may well be conceived she was sensibly injur ed true she had her foibles she was peevish and fretful kut she was rigidly moral and vir tuous lhe purest ice was not more chaste the pope himself could not boast more piety conscious ofthe correctness of her conduct she was wounded at the remark of the corporal why should her neighbors slander her ? she could not conjecture let my aunt be consoled she falls under the common lot of human na ture a person who cim live in this world with out suffering slander nm.-i l.e too stupid or in significant to claim attention thc corporal told me the oilier day hi it he could compare slander to notbintttttt pultun's torpedoes itis ofthe moiit destructive nature — and yet acts so secretly and undcrhandedly that its object is ta ken unawares unci blown into atoms in an iil smik it gropes in the dark and works by un discovered springs — still its composition is so hellish and powerful thut no strength no dis cretion can guard against its effects it is most gratified when its exploits bear upon great ob jects the corporal would have proceeded but the simile was too palpable to require further illustration you kg yoiuck u'atrhes jewelri and
