THE MAGNIFICENT.
In tho ancient Soman city of BatL,
aboat the end of the last century,
while it etill retained much of the
fashion and celebrity it had reached in
the days of Bean Nash, the frequenters
of the Pumprooms and Balls
were d^vided'into two rival factions,
and lonfr and^fierce were their*' atrnr

of two rival doctors, who divided between

to a coronet, it was his only1 f&ibie;
and as that was a part of his professional
manner, it was pardonable and
not unpopular
The reign of this JEIscuJapian potentate
was at last rudely disturbed by
the arrival of a pretender to the
Throne. Where Dr. Lenoir came,

of immense frame, over six feet in

and a good-tempered, sanguine -complexion.
He bad commenced bis Bath
career by becoming the -tenant of a
large house on the outskirts of the
town, which rumor said was used as a
lunatic asylum. But he made bis appearance
in the Pump-room and the
evening recreations, and, as he prov? d

Such were the rivals, for whom
the card-tables of Batli waged
war.
Tbe rivals themselves wore sworn

kind-hearted deference that the other
was,entirely disarmed. But a, kind
of-ondefinod pomp followed* bis;-footsteps.
j. In.the Pump-room and at tfce
balls ho had a chosen placWjWbtf# no
one ever usurped; ana by
the Came of "Doctor Magniflcos,"
which, wotr*cted by the unlearned
into TA* AfugnijLcentr was his ordinary
title. .
Dr. .Lenoir Bad been about; three

flirtation of pociety:, ,uot of the

other than his profession.
The only instanee in which lie ever
*n&inlii*un his anpcrb demeanor, was
wikem in company with Mrs. DeGrey,
an exceedingly beautiful and attractive
woman, who, with her husband
and two young children, had lived for
more than a year at Bath. Dr.
Lenoir .plainly admired .her much. . .

or a thought of evil; ready in" repartee,
sparkling in small talk, but with
an ever open heart and hand for real
sorrow, she was the joy of all who
knew her; and very Iwxiestly distresed
were the Pump-room gossips when
they heard that Airs. DeGrey was seriou8lyjll._
_ . u .
CoJ. JDeGrej affected .Lenoir's society
mn-cih; for his jxusrers of conversation
were remarkable, and they ltad
many tastes. in common. Btfc whco
his wife was taken ill, he Bcntrfbr Dr
Heathcote, to the amusement of the
Bath 6candal-mo?gers, who set it
down to a slight infusion of jealousyNow
and then, as Lenoir stood lean,
tog JiJto a Hercules against his accustomed
pillar, some wag, who thought
himself privileged, launched a shaft at
him with this barb to it: but Lenoir,
without the slightest discomposure or
even alluding to the gibe, shot back
some sarcastic rwnark-on bis assailant,
wfaieh maclo him tingle to the
tips of his fiogom Jiut he inquired
with real solicitude of .Dr. ficathcbte
as to his patient's health.
"To tell you the truth, my dear fellow,"
paid .Heathcote one day, '
wish they would call,, you in. 0i
course you know I cannot ask for a
consultation with a junior; but I wisfc
they would pay me off, and take you.

we oiake up our pills dfFerently.
If you make an cxcose to let me attend
for a day or two, I will toll you,
to tfce beat ol my judgment, what I
think of the ease." '
So Dr. Heath cote made his excuse,
and Dr. Lenoir was called. ' And the
Pump-^oom scandal-mongers talked
more than ever.

Dr. Lprnoir nrn<wyJod- The Colonel
received him at the door, and shook
hira warmly by the baftd. \
' My poor wife is very ill, I fear, and
lam sure you will do your best to
bring Her through."
Lenoir answered this appeal by a
grunt, and walked straight ioto the
dining-room, and looked out at the
window. . - ;
/ "I-suppose Dr. Heathcote has told
you the ?ymptom8?that she never
can take her food ?"
. "He has told me nothing. If he
had, I should not have believed him.
I don't want to know anything about
symptoms. Can I 8e6/her?"
"Certainly. She is rather better today,
and very anxious to Bee you.
You will find her io the drawingroom.*"

Lenoir went up Mai re and entered
the drawing rooia, . the Colonel siini
ply announcing him, and then leaving
the room. i. '

ravages which a month bad made

more disagreeably than usual.
' You are not to be bo cross, Dr. Lenoir;

One evening, as the Colonel and ho
were sitting at their wine after dinner,
the former said. "When do you

This world has ever been "a
dark place/' ai-d rffever more so '
than now. But if God graciously 1
gives us "light in the darkness,"
shall we close.oureyes to it? This ]
iijg'bt ia the "sure word of prnpfa- 1
eev/' to which we are exhorted "to 1
take heed." It is strange that 1
I there should be. amotiff Christians. '
so little attention paid to the study 1
of prophecy, considering how Jfcrge j
a portion of God's word treats of 1
the subject. ' 1
This neglect is by some thought ^
a mark of humility, and thereverse 3
an indication of great conceit. But 1
the humility that is manifested bv
a marked disobedience to Christ's 1
express command, is a very doubt- 1
(of huinilitv. When our Saviour 4
#ud, "Seach the Scriptures," surely 1
tie did not except any part of their 1
preeious testimony.
"Some ?ay, "We cannot ?anderthese
things." If we hum bie
ourselves before God, under a
sense of our ignorance, and pray 1
for hie .teaching, our prayer will 1
be answered, and we shall find by ]
sweet experience that ou that sub- '
ject, as well as on every other, *
"none teaeheth like God/' * Others ?
say; "What advantage is to be i
gained by this study?-' The Bible <
says, "Whatsover things were *
written aforetime, were written for ?
our learning; "All scripture is <
profitable;" "Add to your faith t
virtue, and to. virtue hxowleiige;" <
and the Saviour said, when uttering ?
prophecies, which all know are I
only partially fulfilled, "Behold,.! *
have foretold you all things; take 1
yelieed." z
The chief objects of prophecy are i
?the restoration ot the Jews, the J
glorification of the church, the ap- 1
pearing of the Lord Jesus and hia c
glorious reign, the destruction of c
his enemies, aud the renovation of 1

liot bet contemplated without both e
pleasure and profit. If our -daily T
prayer is, "Thy kingdom come," a
why not strive to understand what fl
the Bible teaches concerning that *
kingdom? But as in the (Lay
our Saviour's first coming, so itw f
now in the day of his second com- i
ing?there are but few "looking a
for redemption." Why is this. I
when we are so expressly tgld that ?
"the time is at hand 2" A special s
blessing is promised to those who c
study tne book of Revelation?be- 6
cause there all prophecy culminates; 1
so that to understand the word9 of
this prophecy is to understand alL s
And that it is intended that God's I
people should kuow the things t
which uiuet shortly come to pass, *
iB evident; for these things were I
shown to John that he might show *
them to us.. Shall it be in vain ? . 1
" "The times of restitution of all t
things, which God hath spoken by ;

since the world began," are doubt- *
less tlie "tilings" that are shown in t
& symbolic (vision to John; thus 1

Summer Drinks.
Id tl?e Galaxy Nebular we find the
following advice at iosummer drinks:
The return of the warm season naturally
brings to mind various preparations
for hot" "Weather. One of
these our codntrymen at?d countrywomen
havo always jBtrangely neglected?the
preparation of cooling
non-vivacioos beverages. While in
'mixed drinks," containing some form,

of t&e world, oar temperance tipplers
show a strange poverty of the invenUod.
Tbe only habitual sherbet is
lemonade, tbo least delicate of theip
all, and moreever, containing an acid
which disagrees with many' persons.
Orangeade, so much soperror to it, is
rarely seen; raspberry and strawberry
sherbets never. The difficulty
of obtaining these fruits, except during
& very short season,' may have
something to do with the want ; but
then there is orgeat, the most cooling
and healthy of summer drinks; who
drinks orgeat? in bow maqy American
totf ns can you get it ? Simpler
than all is aim sucre. We laugh, at
the French for drihking' eau rifere,

it is redeemed from that quality by
the judicious insertion of fire or six.
