At ? o'clock one fine autumnal morning, Seymour and I stood on the deck of a Lon? don steamer, which was casing, and stop Sing, and turning astern, and going on, in er endeavors to lay herself alongside the quay of a foreign town, without smashing any of the smaller vessels which were in her way." "Upon my word, this is delightful," said my friend. "The voyage has been a plea? sure trap instead of a bore. I have had a good night's rest, and feel as fresh as a lark, instead of being jaded, and anxious to get to bed, as usual, on arriving at the end of a long journey. And then one always gets a disappointing impression of a town by riding into it from a station, which is always in the worst quarter; whereas, look there! Why, it's more liko a scene in a theatre than anything in real lifo. I de? clare I will never go abroad by short sea passage and rail again if I eau help it." Seymour is a "swell." He goes to his hair-dressers several times a week, sends back coats and trousers which do not ex? actly fit him, habitually wears gloves, lins a valet (and pronounces tho /,) drives a emull phaeton, drawn by two steppers, who uro apparently always endeavoring to striko their own noses with thor foro legs; and altogether it is surprising that ho cares to be seen with so humble an individual as myself; surprisiug, that is, to certain of my acquaintances, not to ?mo, for I know tho man's real character, and that ho considers a large income as a piuco of good fortune, but no absolute proof of merit in tho pos? sessor. Still, I was rather astonished when he proposed to accompany me in my holiday trip. "A golden pitcher like you would smash my clay sides in a week, if we sailed togo ther," I demurred. "Not a bit, my dear fellow," said he; "I want to do it cheaply. How much money are yon going to take? Well, I will put ex aotly the same sum in my pocket, und when we are drained, we will come homo. Will that do?" It would do exactly; that is just my iden of comfortable traveling. But I suspected that, with my friend's tastes and habits, om funds would last but a very short timo. "For instance," said I, "I always travel by boat from London bridge, and so gol out and homo again for less than a single fare by any other route." Ho acquiesced joyfully, and on our ar? rival, expressed himself as above. Certainly tho voyage had been very pros? perous, the weather fine and warm, the sen as smooth as glass, the passengers few and rather amusing. And the old town looked, as he said, charming; quito a fairy city-ali cathedral, palace and grand squaro, witboul back-slums, dirt, vice or crime; fit to bc photographed as a model for sea-porl towns, pur luggage was examined, landed pnt on a truck and wheeled off to the hotel fixed upon, we following on foot at our lei sure. "Let UB turn into tho Place, and have i nearer look at the cathedral," proposed Seymour. "Every scrap of tracery look! as sharp and clear, in this early morning air, as if it were under a microscope. Hal? loa! what's that?" "That" was a hum and a tramping, dis tant at first, then londer and nearer. Whoi we entered the Place, we found groups scat te red about; fresh comers were perpetually arriving from all the large open space, ant presently the head of the large crowd whose march we had heard in tho distance debouched upon the scene. In the centre of the square n scaffold hai been erected, around which all these peopl were gathering. Seymour, a good Germai scholar, made inquiries. A mau, supposci to be an Englishman, had committed a hoi rible murder, attended by circumstances c revolting treachery and ingratitude, and hi head was to be cut off in half an hour a forth est. Now, I certaiuly should not have gon out of my way to see such a sight; bu being there, a sort of fascination bound m to the spot. As for Seymour, he was gla of the opportunity of seeing any of th foreign customs; and since ho Lad serve in the cavalry during a bloody Indian ona paign, it was beyond the powe** of a head; man to spoil his breakfast, even if the fe low bungled. Some of these languid, fin gentlemen you meet in Pall Mall, and thin effeminate, have seen, and done, and sn fered things which could not be read b many of their critic? without a shudder. There were immense numbers of peopl present, but no crowd, in the English sent of the word; for the open space was vet extensive, and the stage on which the tn gedy was to be performed visiblo from evei l'fcart of it", so tfrefe was no reason" why the spectators should jain themselves together; add aa they w?r? free froin that propensity to puah to the front which animates all ranks and both sexes of the British, there waa plenty of elbow-room, and a sensitive lady might even have fain tod, wi thou t being trodden to death in consequence. "Yon will have an opportunity to see with what force the blood is always pump? ing through our arteries," said Seymour. "Barbarous? not a bit. Far more humane than hanging, I take it. Curious, though, that they have never introduced the guillo? tine in this country; perhaps because it is French." "I see no block." "They do not use one. The culprit sits in that ohair, and the executioner snicks bis head off with his sword ns you would a thistle with your cane. But hero they come." It was with a sickening feeling that I watched the executioner, the priest and the murderer step on to the scaffold. Tho last was a middle-aged man, of light, ngile form and delicate features, reliovod by black hair and moustache. He was in his shirt, which was open at the neck and turned back, and his arms wero bound. To the hardihood which supports many n miscreant in his last hour, and enables him to "die game," bc could lay no claim, for his face was blanched with terror, he trembled in every limb, and was ovidently nearly fainting. The mental agony of the poor wretcl added so much to tho terror of tho scene, that I could bear it no longer, and I wa: turning to go, when an exclamation fron my companion stopped me. Seymour wai habitually so quiet, indifferent, and almos sleepy in his tone, that anything like ener getio speech from his month was perfectly startling. I had known him from a boy and never remembered his being excitc< before. I bud seen him resisting the over charge of an abusivo cabman in thc mids of a Derby row, and in many other situa Hons calculated to stir tho temper and se tho tongue wagging freely, but his voie bad never beeu raised or hurried. "My good mau," he drawled, ou thi Derby occasion, "if you do not get onto my way, and keep quiet, I must hit you;' and presently he did so, effectually, bu quito coolly. So that I had como to look upon him as well-dressed rod Iudiau or dandy stoic, am half doubted at the moment whether tb cry of surprise could possibly have com out of bis mouth. Ono glance at his fae assured me of that, however; he was lonnin forward aud gazing at tho scaffold wit parted lips aud straining eyes. "Lend me your glass," be cried; and af tc looking through the binocular a minute "Yes, it is tho mau himself; no doubt abou that. But there is ouo thing I want t make out, aud c.iu't. Here; your eyes ar better than mine; take the glass and exr mino his face; it is turned this way nov Well, do you seo uuy mark upon it?" "No. Yes, I do; thero is a broad scar o bis cheek." "Which cheek?" cried Seymour, graspin my arm so hard that he hurt me. "Tho left," I replied. "Then, by Heavens, I have guesse right!" exclaimed Seymour, drawiuga lon breath. At another time, curiosity would ha> dictated a question, but at that moment tl: headsman began to blind tho eyes of h victim, and by a strange revulsion of fee iug, I could not now help watching him. Tho business was neatly done; ono sweo of tho largo sword, and the plotting brai was separated from the bad, cruel heart; tl life-stream spurted up in ono thick jot I tho height of several feet, and all was ove We walked to the hotel, which was cloi by; and after a bath and chango, I four that the scouo I had witnessed had mai less impression upon me than I anticipate When tho meal was over, and wo we lolling in chairs in the plensant court yan I remarked on tho singularity of Seymoui landing on that particular morning in tin to assist at tho decapitation of au old a quaiutance. "Yes," ho replied, in his ordinary toi now, "most extraordinary thing that ev occurred ; the beggar had a try at my li once, and I gave him that scar. I was ce tain it could not be a ghost, because, there were ghosts, I don't believe they c; fire pistols." "Was it in India?" "No; in Yorkshire, or Lancashire; I' not certain which. But I see, you want t whole story, so you shall have it, only doi talk about it." "One August, somo years ago, when was in the cavalry, I got two months' lea of absence, and thought I should like sot shooting. Not knowing any one in Sc< land to sponge upon at that moment, looked over the advertisements in Bell, ai pitched upon one inserted by a Mr. Bantye who intimated that he was ready to provi board, lodging and grouse-shooting for certain sum-rather a high one-but I w flush of money at the time, and did r mind that-on one of Ibo Yorkshire moo: "I wrote, agreeing to bis terms, on t solo condition that the gamo proved to as plentiful as he represented; and receiv directions how to find Deadmoor Tower return of post.

TUE Commissioner of Agriculture, in his report for tho year 18G?, H pe ak a as folio wa: "There can l>o no doubt cf tho general adulte? ration of all malt liquors. In England and other countries, where heavy penalties are imposed, and an increasing vigilance practiced to detect and punish such frauds, by a syetcm of inspection of all malt liquors manufactured before exposed to salo, tho practice is very common. How much moro in this country, where there aro no laws on thc subject, and no officer to carefully analyze tho products of thc browory? Some years ago, Pro? fessor Mapee, of Now York, analyzed thc beer from a dozen different breweries, and all were found adulterated with noxious substances. It is Baid that tho salo of drugs to brewers, is a profit? able part of tho trade. This is perfectly infamous. Cocculns indiens, (fish-berry, ) mix v?mica, (dog button, from which strychnine is obtained, : are sonic of the delectable substances found in beer! These ?re potent poisons, and the brewer found using them ?should bo drowned at once in one of his own vats. Tho British Parliament passed a law to prevent this nefarious business. Tho fol? lowing ia nu extract: 'No druggist, vendor of or dealer in drugSj or chemist, or any other person, shall cell or deliver to any licensed brewer, dealer in or retailer of beer, knowing them to be such, or shall sell or deliver to any person on account of, orin trust for, any such brewer, dealer, or re? tailer, any liquor called by tho name of or sold for coloring,"from whatever "material tim same may be made; or any material i>r preparation other than unground brown malt, for tim darkening tho color of worts or boer, or any molasse, vitriol, I honey, quassia, coconuts indiens, grains of para? dise, Guinea pepper, or opium, or any extract or preparation of molasses, or any article or prepa? ration to ho used in worts or beer for or as a sub ! stitnte for malt or hops; and if any druggist shall i oll'end in any of theso particulars, such prepara? tion. Ac, shall be forfeited, and may bo seized by j any officer of excise, and the person so offending shall forfeit flee hundred pound*? "Under this law, very many druggists and brew? ers wero brought to grief, lind yet tho practico continues. Unless the American public aro ready to admit tho immaculate purity and innocence of American brewers, they must" bo content, while drinking their beer, to cherish the belief that they aro at tho same time guzzling some narcotic poi? son or damaging medicino. In view of the unpre? cedented growth of tho barley crop; of the great increase of tho number of maltsters and brewers; of the vast unknown quantities of beer that are drunk in every city and almost every town on the continent; it is tho dictato of sound wisdom, that tho attention of legislators should bo called to thc subject of tho adulteration of our malt liquors, and severo penalties should be inflicted as a pre? ventive."

Its uniform character and power to euro the vari? ous affections of tho lungs and throat, havo made it known as a rcliablo protector against them. While adapted to milder forms of diseaso ami to young children, it ia at tho same timo the most effectual remedy that can be given for incipient consumption, and tho dangerous affections of the throat and lungs. As a provision against sudden attacks of CROUP, it should be kopt on hand in every family; and, indeed, as all are sometimes subject to colds and congha,all should be provided witn this ?ntidoto for them. Although eottlod CONSUMPTION is thought incurable, still great numbers of cases where the disease seemed settled havo been completely cured, and tho patient restored to sound health by tho CHERRY PECTORAL. So complete is ita mastery over tho disorders of tho lungs and throat, that the most obstinate of thom yield to it. When nothing elso could roach them, under tho CHERRY PECTORAL they subside and disappear. SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS find great protection from it. ASTHMA is always rclievod and ofton wholly cured by it. BRONCHITIS i H generally curad by taking tho CHERRY PECTORAL in small and frequent dosos. So generally aro its virtues known that wo need not publish tho certificates of them hero, or do moro than assure the public that its qualities are fully maintained.
