WM. J. FRANCIS, Proprietor. C. O t(.. - -- S. - - - - 2 = --- - -- - e o UMTERVIL ES. O MA 7, 851 Prison Anecdote. In tho year 1834, a widow of good rottune (whom we 'shall call Mrs. Newton) resided with her daughter in ono of the suburbs nearest to the Metropolis. They lived in fashion .4abe style, and kept an ample estab lishment of servants. A very pretty young girl, nineteen years of age resided in this family in the capacity of laidy's maid. She was toleraly educated, spoke wit, grammatical correctness, and was distinguished by a remarkably gentle and fascinating address. At the time Miss Newton was en. gaged to be married to one Captain Jennings, It. N.; and Miss Newton ,(as many young ladies iii the like circumstances have dune before,) employed her leisure in embroidering cambric, making it up into handker. chiefs, and sending them and other .little presents of that description, to Captain Jennings. Unhappily, but %veey naturally, she mado Charlotte Mortleck, her maid, the bearer of these commuimnicatiot.s. The captain occupied lodgings suited to a gentle. men of station, and thither Charlotte -Mortlock frequently repaired at the bidding of her young mistress', and generally waited (as lovers are gen erally impatient) to take back the captain's answers. A strange sort of regard, or at tachment (it is confidently believed to have been guiltless) sprung up be tween the captain and the mail; and 4, captain, who would seem to have Qeserved Miss Newton's confidence -as littlo as her maid did, rave as presents to Charlotte, some of the em broidered oflerings of Miss Newton. It happened that a sudden ap. pointment to the command of a ship s.ar .took C aptain. Jennings oj tiahs-AtlanrLe voyage, l1e had not been very long gone, when the following discovery threw the family of the Newtons into a state of intense agitationl. -g Ts .i ..io imssing article ,Mk.v~temi of her win. MNen be Netowtkm herself to that young woman's room, nd, quito ni. suspiciously, opened a trunk which whs left unlocked. 'lhere she found, to her horror, a number of the hand kerchiefs she had embroidered for her. lover. Tho possibility of the real truth never flashed teross her inind; the dishonesty of Charlotte seemed to be the on1ly solution of the incident. "Doubtless,' she reason ed, "the parcels had beei opened on their way to Captain Jcnnings, and their contents stolen.' On the return of Charlotte Mort look, she charged with the robbery. What availed the assertion that she had received the handkerchiefs from the captain himself? It was no defence, and certainly was not cal. culated to soften the anger of her naistress. A policeman was sum moned, the unhappy girl was chiarged with felony, underwent examination, was committedl for trial, and, des titute of witnesses, or of any piro'mle defence, was ul timnately corn vcted. Thme judge (now deceased) who tried the case, was unspam ingly denounced by many philainthrophic ladies, for the admiration lie hadit expressed for the weeping girl, arid especially for his announcement to the jury, in as sing senten~e of one year's imjpris onmenat with hard labor, '-that lie would not transport her, since the country could niot atlford to lose sneh beauty.' It wa 4s doubtless, not a very judicial remark; but an in nocent girl was, at all events, saved "from a sentence that might have killed her. Consigned to the County House of' Correction, Char lotte Mortlock ob served the best possiblo conduct was mrodest, humblle, submiissive, and industrious-and sooni gainedl thme good-will of all her supiervisors. To the Governor she always asserted her innocence, and toldl, with great simu plicity, the tale of her fatal piossession of these dangerous gifts. She had been in prison a few months, when the Governor received a visit, from a cer-taini old Bar-onet, who with ill-disguisedi reluctnme. and in the blunt phraseology which was peculiar to him, proeeed~ to say', that "a girl nmed Charlotto Mort look had quite bowitched his filiend Captain Jennings, who was beyond the Atlantic; and that a letter hie prodluced woul i shuo wv the sin "ula r frame of miwrl ini whieb -inm nl'ieh thme Assuredly, the letter teemed with expressions of anguish, remorse, and horror, at the suffering and apparent ruin of a "dear innocent girl,' the victim of L'is senseless and heartless imprudence. However, the Baronet seemICel to be anything but touched by his friend's rhap-sodies. le talked much of "human nature,' and .'f the "weakness of a man when a pretty girl was in the case:" but in order to satisfy his friend's nind, asked to see her, that he might write sonic account of her appearance and condi:ion. Accordingly, he did see her in the Governor's presence. After a few inalppropriate questions, he cut the interview short and went away, manifestly disposed to account his gallat friend a fool for his excitenent. The incidenit was not lost upon the Governor, Iho listeneil with iiereased faith to the poor girl's protestations. Inl a few nionths more lie reecived a strongrer confirination of them. A pparently unsatisfied with the Bar o(net's set vices, Captain Jenniigs wrote to another friend of his, a pmblic functionary, formerly a Capjtain in tle renowned Light Division; and that officer jjlaced in the GoicverIIC.r's hand a letter from the Cosain, exqpressing unhouiled grief at the dreadful late of an innocent %oung woman;-'Ile could not rest nlight or day; she hatunted his imagination, and vet he was distant and p'owerless to serve her. Ilis second messenger was touched with pity, and consulted the Governor as to the proper course to l ursue. Ilowever, under the tni happy circunstances of the case, Captain Jennigs being so far away, no folcrual docum lent being at hand, and the period of tl, "-"r ;irl's re. lease being then aln.- ~ ece, it step.

She, coise quently, quitted her sad abode in a coidition suitable for active exertion.

The Englishnan sips his coffee, enjovs sugar in his tea, and spices in his lastry, wondering why stich things are not cheaper; atid picturing Indi an planters as princes, inl white calico and straw hats, having little else to do than to smoke bookabs, drink brand.y-pawny and pocket their gains. A trip to soie of the coffee, sugar, or cinnamon estates in Ceylon, would at once dispel the imaginary picture; none of the articles we have inetion ed grow indiigenois and without trou ble. as a visit to the Kaderani Ciina mon1 Gardens would show. Before, however, we start for them, it ay be as well to mention that the aromatic spice called cinnamon, is the inner bark of the lawrus Cinnamon, a beautifil tree, attainiing.r the size, and something the appearance of a Moderately large pear-tree. To pro dIUCe fine bark-such as is required for purposeS of commerce-the tree must he felled, and the root forced to grow inl shoots, straight and smooth. These being cut wvhen eighteen months or two years old, a fresh sup ply of young sticks rapidly appear after the first rains. A cinnamon plantation, therefore, is in reality a gardei, anid not a forest. The Engish Government possess five cinnamon plantations in Ceylon, contanl i the aggregate about twelve thousand acres. These have nea rlv all been sold to private indi viduals, some of whom allow their es tates to be very much n-glected; oth ers kcep them in a statc orhiih culti a n.

The whole of the Ceylon coast is low andl sand, and generally favor iable' for the growth of. cininmon, which floutrishes in a hot and damp atiosphL'ere, such as is there found. To get to Negomnbo, the most pleas anit al least fatiguing mode is by a native covered canoe, along the old Iutchi canal, a small river ilhich the Ditei deepened, so as to adllit of loadled Ioats piassing at all times.
