This was the liberality of one Republican King—we see what is the superior goodness of another.

A French Gentleman who lately returned from England, and dressed in the English style. was tra velling to Paris ; at the inn he supped at nn the road, having called for a bottle of wine, and asked what was to pay for it, was told five francs, upon which he remarked, that he had travelled that road often and used the same inn, but never was charged more than thirty sous before for the same sort of wine. The discovery was then made that the Gentleman was a Frenchman; the woman who kept the Inn begged his pardon, and assured bins she had taken him for an Englishman. This hint may put our countrymen upon their guard as to the impositions practised on them in France. A few evenings since a young woman named Anne Finley, who had come by the coach from Buckland, in Dorsetshire, on her way to the service of a fami ly in town, was met by a fellow in Knightsbridge, where the coach had stopped a short time, when he accosted her, and enquired if she was not the person I who was 06 her way to her new place? she replied in the affirmative, and he having examined the card affixed to her trunk, said it was all right, end as he was or dered to meet her he wished to take her the nearest way. He then proposed carrying her trunk, cud led her through. the Green Park into St. James's, over the Pagoda Bridge, and into Westminster,; where, after taking a timber of turns, he gtopOsi at a house nest a gateway. Here he desired her $o re. main, white he went in the back way and deposited the trunk, when he would afterwards let her in by the front door. The credulous girl waited nearly half an hour, and no door being opened, nor her pretended new fellow.servatit appearing, she at 1 length knocked at the door, and state) the circum stance, but discovered too late that she bad been grossly imposed upon. The gateway through which the marauder passed having led to ano , lier street, he naturally esceped. The situation of the poor girl, an utter stranger, may easily be conceived, deprived 'as she was by this nefarious act of he► little all. In her trunk were contained soma 'Bank-notes and silver, a pair of ear-rings, a brooch, and some fa. mily trinkets, and various articles of wearing ap parel.
