We noticed a few days since a shocking instance of murder, followed by suicide, which took place at Montmorency, near Pads. Le Vodeur, of the 20th instant, contains a very extraordinary document con nected with this case, in the shape of a communica tion from Stephane D., the suicide himself, dated on the morning of the catastrophe, and purporting to be an exact account of his thoughts and feelings during the last three days of his life. The length of the article precludes our giving entire this melan choly record of the effects of a morbid sensibility upon two young person;, who hare fallen victims to a romantic temperament and over-heated imagina tion ; but we extract the most remarkable passagee. The letter, which was received by the Editor about noon on the 29th of April, accompanied ,Aith a re• quest fur its immediate insertion, runs thus : " And I, too, am determined on writing a work, the title of which, at least, shall possess a claim to originality—" The Three Last Days of a Suicide.'— It needs no preface, and will be very brief, as I have actually no more than three days to write it in, part of which must be employed in those occupations which I shall have to engage in up to the last mo ment. Nor will it be devoid of interest, as lam my self at once its author and hero. Since yesterday, Thursday, the 23d of Aril, I have decided on :1 dying, and Monday next, the 27th, is the day on which I have fixed for putting my design in execu tion. It is far from my wish to inflict on my readers the ennui which is the bane of my own existence.— My heart has been incessantly the prey of this rul ture, which, inseparable from its victim, has accom panied nie from.the arms clone female to those of I another. But let me, not anticipate— " I married Mademoiselle P—, after a court ship of eight months; she was well adapted to make me happy, had not the romance of my diposition rendered happiness of impossible attainment. - He then goes on to describe the commencement of his acquaintance with Laura, to whom he was introduced by his friend D'Am ; the latter was attached to her, and requested him to keep an eye over the object of his affections during his absence. Then we lave the old story of Werther over again: and even his account of his first interview with Laura, together with his description of her person, bear so strong a resemblance to those of Goethe, that it is impossible not to discover that he had be gun to identify himself with that author's hero. He falls violently in love—a correspondence ensues, in the course of which he ascertains that his passion is returned : his friend discovers his perfidy—re proaches him with it, and represents to Laura, who has already yielded to his rival's desires, the confu sion which their liaison will excite in an innocent family. The. same reflection has by this time oc curred to Stephane himself, and as he professes still to feel a great regard for his wife, he is shocked at the pain her knowledge of it will inflict upon her. Then it is that the idea of suicide appears first to have occurred to his mind, and be hints it to Laura in some verses ; a conversation follows on the subject, in which the matter is at first treated lightly, when, on the 21st of April, he receives from her the following letter " I look forward to the future with alarm : if you really love me, you will not hesitate; I hold life in detestation, and see in it nothing but a continuation of torment ; to live without you is impossible, I should be for ever the prey of inquietude. Be it so, then, I must die ; I feel a secret pleasure in the thought. What have Ito regret ? My relations ? They will prefer the intelligence of my death to that of my dishonour. If you have any thing to regret in the world remain in it. I shall complain no more; and I have courage sufficient to quit a life which is become insupportable. I have reflected long and deeply : I can have no enjoyment without you, every thing is opposed to my happiness. I wish to die. Reply to me on this subject. " Your friend, LAURA." His reply was a brief one— " You know my determination, it is to follow you in all things—it is unchangeable." He then declares his intention of committing to writing an account of the remainder of his time on earth, and commences by a description of his own person, as contained in a passport granted him when at the age of twenty, about a year since ; the por trait which he draws is, as in the case of his mis- .ress, not without personal advantages, and he then goes on. " Thursday, April 23. " At six this morning I was in la rue d'llanover, she did not keep me waiting. Iler appearance was us if sleep had been a stranger to her, her air was nevertheless cheerful. Oa her arrival I was care lessly smoking a cigar, but removed it immediately, the smell of a pipe is unpleasant to a female. ' Have you any news for me Yes, I shall die on Mon day." And without me ?" I shall not have that grief to suffer.' You will die happy ?" Yes, on Monlay: Every thing around me from that mo ment appeared idle in my sight, and I gazed with pity on the people whom I saw running about occu pied with their various concerns." 0 0 0 0 , , The conversation continues. " ' You quit life, then,' again I asked, ' without regret ?' ' Yes." And without fear ?" I do.' Of hell ?" I believe not in it—after death the soul becomes resolved into nothing; what think you of a future state?' My friend, I hope to return upon earth.' I comprehend ; you believe in the metempsychosis: Not exactly so; the doctrine of metempsychosis supposes the soul of man to enter into the body of an inferior animal —my belief is, that it will animate another human flame. I consider this world as a theatre in which the same performers are constantly re-appearing on the stage in various characters, having only changed their dresses behind the scenes.' " o• 0 0 n Let us change the subject; how shall we die ?' ' I will shoot you first, then turn against myself the weapon that has destroyed you!" And if you should miss me ?" Fear not that; my hand will be steady estough: At least, do not point your pistol at my head; it would disfigure me.' Ah, coquette to the last ! no, I will level it at your heart.' . . . "A nursery maid passed with an infant in her arms. Ah !' cried Laura, with a deep sigh, what need of all this cure ? when that infant is grown up perhaps she will become a suicide like us ! unhappy parents, you know not what trouble you are heaping up for yourselves !" Farewell !—On Monday !' She disappeared, and I was in a desart. 9 9 0 0 • " I applied to my task and wrote for four hours; my wife entered. Pauline,' said I, lam going to take a journey on Mondayr How. • For one day only, and to a good purpose : I shall obtain a situation.' Of value ?" Six thousand francs, at least." Impossible ! you would look more cheer ful were it so." It is true." Oh, how happy it will make our relations ; how happy it will make ourselves; ah ! had our dear little Stephune lived !' I felt as if she had plunged a dagger in my bosom . - 0 if 0 0 0 n " After dinner I fell asleep. You have awakened me from a singular dream,' said I to Pauline. I thought you were a widow, and about to be married again. wished to prepare her for the event." He then goes to the theatre, and afterwards to a friend, whose assistance he requests in making his will, on the plea that he is about to be engaged in a duel—then recommences writing, and describes the sensations which he experienced, at hearing his un conscious wife laugh heattily 'at the comedy which they had just left, and the humour of which had only served to confirm his own perceptions. He receives a second letter from Laura. " Stephane—all is decided; I ant more resolved than ever. I have entered upon a career too painful for me not to seek to quit it. The more I consider, the more plainly I-see this is the only way left us; otherwise I must renounce you. You know this to be impossible : my determination then is immove able. I have but one regret : I wept yesterday much on thinking upon my father; but to-dai 1-11 , rd firm and resigned. Adieu, my friend! At nale on Monday—Think of me! ~,- LAU~'~~. To this he replied:— " Laura, you wept ! Have you not over - -- -rdeli dt Tour courage ? To-morrow you will see . 3 1) „"" t4 'father—distrust your own heart ! My ar rangenle - 0 are made—my weapons prepared! think that rof have only to choose between dying by the hand your lover or your assassin." na Ito then goes to purchase a pair of pistols, the thoughts of his aunt and some other relat"), cross his mind, without, however, effecting 16 change in his purpose. They will prefer, h e to hear of his death, rather than of his disgrac e. ., At six he again goes to th.! theatre, and descrn himself as entering into the spirit of the scene, ,, conversing cheerfully with a friend on the Obi. of the piece, after it is over. At six the folloolt morning he rises, takes leave of his wife, and It out on his pretended journey. His last dated " Monttnoreney, April 29th," where he t„. pears to have been staying two days with his 113 , • tress : " It is four o'clock ; two weddings are being L e. lebrated in the rooms immediately beneath that which we have not quitted since Monday eve tlin c We hear the sounds of their music and of t"hilb mirth, sounds which will be so soon mingled st, the report of the weapons of death.

But then , aunt Pauline! Paul—Paul—Pauline !—Adietl7 adieu !" the Thus concludes this extraordinary epistle; b e d Editor states that a courier was instantly dielot c :l%. to Montmorency, in the faint hope of prev entinir double crime. On his arrival no noise had been heard in the chamber, nor was it known they were still in it, or whether they bad walk:: out. On knocking no answer was returned, ante difficulty was found in opening the door, from t'l, circumstance of the bed having been drawn,aer7d it on the inside; but when an entrance Was effel e a dreadful scene presented itself.

C • afP" The hand of the wretched young man appear e i wards to have become unsteady; his yvounu bef e lower down in the body, and he appeared e°, f el e, died in great agony, from the contortions of t o , tures. The pistols were lying on the tt e as ed whetbeei stained with blood; near them was a note acw,,," t oe to the inn-keeper, apologizing for making his "" bey the scene of their destruction, and stating that too had gone out with the view of accomplishing t purpose in the neighbouring wood, but tha t the co was so severe Stephane had feared lest its bee render his hand unsteady ; the note ended by nig queathing the shawl of Laura to one of the chaeo, ber-maids. The report of the pistols had nge drowned in the noise of the music, nor had anY any notion of the precise moment when the e s ' trophe took place. LAW INTELLIGENCE. ARCHES COURT, MAT 29.
