their authors The ing anecdote in tlie life of remarkable man we can vouch for as entirely authentic It communicated to us by a gentleman in whose veracity we can place implicit confidence He was himself acquainted with the individual who figures as a char in the story Many years ago when Louis Napoleon TTM a mere lodger in St Jarnes street don be was invited as a guest to the mansion of the late Sir John rard a few miles from this own During that time he joined in all the sports and pleasures common to country gentlemen in which the late Sir John was On one occasion he joined the Cheshire hunt and being an excellent rider he is said to have appeared to great in the field But pleasure wearies Tike labor and ere the day's sport had closed the distinguished horseman WHA found lagging far behind tha hounds by I Squire go wrapped up was he in deep meditation that he did not the Squire approach until their horses were abreast when they cordially each other Your taid the

speech as ha ishly exclaimed Ah ah this is the ad- vantage the followers of your religion bor under Your state hereafter is as a mystery to you as our earthly ex- istence is to us poor devils The Prince good naturedly joined in the self but soon relapsed into his melancholy mood The Squire was loo ed in the matter to let it drop He said I should ba afraid to think then that the future disquiets you It is even so good sir though to a vulgar mind it would teem wt brilliant as could be was the re ply of the Prince What is that your highness asked the Squire now nil tion Reining in his horse and looking into the Squire's open English countenance the Prince replied with much emphasis Nothing less sir than the im- purple of Franco Squire's first impulse Lo laugh but there was something so indescribable about strange man at his side that he felt mysterious influence creep over him for some timo his tongue refused ils lie however ventured once more to address the Prince but in a more de- manner than he had been lo use So great a station as the one you mention your Highness would compensate most men far nil iho ills that flesh is hoar replied Prince with warmth majority
