"While it is read or recited to crowds i'fl-ageik listeners in the Arabic coffee'houses tif Asia and Africa, it is just as eagerly pcrsued on lhe. banks of the Tngus, the Tiber, the ?Suinc, the Thames, the Hudson, the Mississippi, and the (Jango*. Besides the. millions of' Moslems whom this book styles the true believers., t lie still more numerous millions of Christians, though (heir .religion and themselves are contemned in it, read and-enjoy it, lot tlicy can nowhere (ind its equal in the splendor of its incident?, ami the expression of fervent and intensely natural' desires. This unique eharac teij, alro, as has well been said, obvia tes otic objection to placing romances in ithe hands <>f the.young. While the youth pro (its by the amount of world ly wisdom displayed by the onsnarcrs and those w ho foil them, he can never feel a disappointment that the real world should be so different; for where everything is so unlike the world around him, he?feels when he treads upon thi.s enchanted threshold that he is entering the realms of pure, imagin ation. While rther< arc.children on tho earth "to love, so long will the ''Arabian Nights" be loved; and we all1 owe this pleasure to one who was himself a piior French boy. Antoiue Galland was born of.poor parents, at Kol loin Pi6ardyj in 104(5. Ho lost his father while an infant, ami was placed in the college of Noyon at tho age of thirteen. His jnothor \vno_ loo poor to keep him' there. He was accordingly put to a trade. He loft iL in disgust and went to Paris. U bile at follige lie had gained some know ledge of Latin, Greek and Hebrew. At Paris ho was befiiembd by Du ric-.-is, and placed under .M. I'd it pud, doctor of tho Sorbonne,with whom he : tiuliid oriental languages, lie was named to accompany M. Nointcl (<? Constantinople, where be learned modern Greek. lie went thence to the. Ho'v !.and. Ii] 1(37(5, he returned to Paris with a collection of medal.- which proved so interesting and valuable that I.o was sent to get more. In l('?7'.> he was employed in I lie KnSt in collecting manuscripts for the celebrated Colbert; and at this -lime he must have obtained his copy of the "Arabian Nights," of which lie trans'atcu and published a large parL, thus winning for bimse ft lie gratitude oV .innumerable generation of the youvg. But if we seek to discover the auth or ol the original Arabic work, we shall ftsi? 1 it impossible.. Even the period; and the place in which was written can only be inferml from internal evidence. '1 he earliest known date conucclc I with it is contained in the marginal note to (ho copy of the .Arabic manuscript which M. Gallahd brought with him from Syria. Thi? note was written as it appears, by AVababa, a Syrian Christian of Tri poli, in Syria, and prays lor l>>ng life for the owners (at first it was erron eously translated author) of the manu script. This date is 1584. The i iol'owing, hcAutifuT language from one of Theodore Parker's prayers lingers in the mind like strains of sweetest music, echoing from the courts of Heaven: "We thank Theo fp*t ih'.SC nowly born into the world, bringing Ihn fragrance ol Heaven in l be infant's breath; and if we dare not thank Jhco when our dear ones arc .born' out of this world and are clothed with jmniortuMlyi \c we ahank Thee that the eye of our faith c.nn follow 'hem still to that laud \fihcrc nil tears are wiped from every eye, and the. q|ijy ! .change; is fj;pm; glo y to glory." ? <m ? ? ?? ?-? - Mr. String of (ialvcston, finds him self all tied up on the matrimonial question, having married no less than Vdnr wives.

In the course of tinio thoywore engaged tuba married. ?Tic doctor wos a strong and decided 'resbytcrjaii, and hia Jady love as strong and decided a Baptist. They were silting together, one evening, talking* over their approaching nup tials, wheudho doctor remarked :.. "I aril thinking of two. events which I shall numbcr u:.io|ig the happiest of nij life." "Aud what may they be, doctor ?" asked tho jady. ? . ., ; "One is the hour when I shall call you my wife for the first time." "And the other, if yon please?

"Every child of rt'iinc shall be sprinkled." ? .... "They sliall be, eh?"' , "Yes, my love." ? Well, sir, I can tell you, ihcn,lhat your babies won't be my babies.' So, good night, sir." The lady left the room and the doctor left the house.' The sequel to this true story was that the doctor never married, and the la.lv is an old maid.
