 Our readers are again furnished with some of the engaging and instructive sketches from the Diary of a London Physician. That which toi- lows, although several of it's exhibitions are of the revoltine character which is inseparabie from the dellneatlons Of crime, is extremely at- fectlng, and we believe of useful tendency. It's moral is not limited to the vices which caused the miserable end of it's subject; and he must be already lnscnsible to the calls of virtue who needs to be reminded of the comprehcnsveness of its warnings.

 "A groom, in plain livery, left card at my house one afternoon during my absence. on which was the name, thlr. Gloucester. No-. Regent Street.; and in pencil, the words-Will thank Dr. - to call this evening" As my textbook was lying on the table at the time, looked in 1t, for mere casual curiosity, to see whether the name Gloucester appeared there but it did not. l conclude, therefore, that my new patient must be recent conner. About o'clock that evening, drove to Regent Street, sentln my card, and was presently ushered by the man-seryantinto spacious apartment, some what showily furnished. The mild retiring sun light of q July evening was difused over the room; and ample crimson window curtains, hall drawn, mtigated the glare of the gided picture frames which hung in great numbers round the walls.

As for his demean- or also, there was a constrained and over-anx- sous display of polteness-an assumption oi fashionable ease and indifference, that sate ill on him, like a courtdress fastened on a vulgar fellow. He spoke with would-he jaunty, free and-easy, srnallswagger sort of air, and chang ed at times the tones ots his voice to an offensive cringing softness. which. dare say, he took te De monstrously insinuating. All these little cir cumstances put together prepossessed me with a sudden feeling of dislike to the man.
