Only three .short weeks niro whs one of the gayest student* of medicio and surgery in the United States. To-da ?well, let ino not anticipate. Two yen id have elapsed since [ was sen from Mobile by my fathor, to study modi cine at the North. I listened to-my tirs ooui ? of loetures in Philadelphia, and thcr uiado t he acquaintance qf Professor who is, probably, the host demonstrator i physiology that ever taught the young ido how to shoot, allophatieally, on this side < the Atlantic. I was fortunate enough i become a particular favorite of his, and \vi introduced by him, with nn especial f'.ou ish, to one of the cleverest surgeons in? think?tho world, 11 is namo is , will call him the Professor, however, il is one of those individuals for whom you : once conceive u great dislike, .or it wood fd partiality, and it was the latter, I, : the lirst time wo met, felt for him. He was n strange being; at least li eee.ne 1 so to me upon our first meeting, an forever afterwards. Oftentimes he dran deeply, and, while under tho influence i drink, he would let fall curious hints eoi corning "blighted hopes," the rascality < kindred, and "the folly of supposing an affection sprang from the ties of eonsanguii Uy." Un one ot those communicative 01 casions, ho tohl mc a heart-rending histoi of family experiences. I gathered, li picoe-meal, from his conversations, the fat that ono of his own blood hail treated most heartlessly, and mm, by Iran of tl\<> ^.'^scst'ciiaraotor, from his nativ place to this country, penniless and frieut less. I ought to say, m piianint, that his drinl ing bouts were conducted strictly upon tli gentlemanly plan, and were seldom or noi or made known to the public, or even totli m inority ot tno.se who ranked among li immediate friends; ami furthermore, should remark that he i.s well advanced i years, although uo doubt you know that a ready.

For this frr.re he felt the intense? afteetion. To him lie confided a history t his hopes; to him lie looked, more than t his infirm father, for advice; to him h communicated a narrative of hia love, an of his successful wooing. The maiden c his ehoico was beneath him in wealth an xtation; but his brother approved of thii * hoice, and he was content, ft is nccess: ry to my object, in penning this narrativ ??1? >l.?l iU? -1.1..- I.
