Julius, who from a window had per-
ceived his father attentively listening
to what was going forward, immedi-
ately joined him, and was highly amus-
ed at the specimen he heard of his pu-
pil's talents for poetry, and eagerly
inquired of his sather, if he did not
think it very pretty ?
"1 think it very gratifying," said Mr.
Godfrey, " and seldom felt a sensation
of pleasure more delightful, than I ex-
perienced in hearing him repeat it; for

ble man, looking at his son with an eye

he was treated, he might have behaved
disferently to little Peter ; for I am sure
he does not think he hurts him, or he
would not use him so unkindly ; and his
papa is never angry with him for it. " '

Mr. Godfrey was prevented from
continuing the subject, by the entrance
of the very boy of whom they had just
been speaking, who after shaking Julius
cordially by the hand, said, *<< So I see
your papa has bought little Mungo for
you ; he looks rather . disferent to what
he did the morning he solicited our cha-
rity/' ,

. *< Is he full of friths" said Charles,
" or? are you forced to flog him into
fun ? I long to have some sport with
him; for Peter's been so ill since we
have been gone, that he has never once
played harlequin ; and now my sather's '
going to fend him to the hospital, for
he will not be any longer plagued with
him ; he goes moping about the house
likex a hen turkey in a snowy day. " ''. . >
Though this conversation was spoken
in a half whisper, Mr. Godfrey had'
been so attentive to it, that he retained
the greatest part, and turning to Charles,
he said, " I am extremely sorry, young
gentleman, to hear you mention the
illness of a fellow-creature, with so little
sympathy, and such unfeeling indif-
ference.

This world, my dear Charles, is a
scene of changes and vicissitudes; the
morning fun is suddenly overshadowed
by clouds of darkness, and these clouds as
rapidly illumined by a cheerful sky. If,
therefore, your heart is so completely
adamantine, that you cannot feel from

Julius ! " he exclaimed; " and yet there
was a great deal os truth in what he said
about me and Peter ; for, to be sure, if he
ever had a sather and mother as fond of
him, as my parents are of me, he must
be very unhappy now he has no one to

Julius repeated to his friend all the

such pains to inculcate ; and after en-
treating him to consider negroes as fel.

saithful Yanko from the ground, and
thanking him for his attachment, he
desired him to explain the cause of his

immediately sent for the officers of jus-

the abandoned men had any idea of
their being suspected ; and sinding they
had only to rely upon their master's cle-
mency, they made a full confession of
their intended crimes, and earnestly be-
sought that compassion they so ill de-
