GAMBLING AT PARIS.

—-- - .
PARIS, Dw. 8.
It has been our painful duty on various occasions to
transmit to you an account of the wetsl effects produc,ed
by gambling,' and we have to • add another tale of vice
to the dreadful listr It bears some similarity to achy-
cuoistance which took place here about fifteen months
ago. Mr. —, an English country Gentleman, be-
longing
to a very respectable and highly connected fa- '
aiily,-married, about six years since, a young lady, pos-
sessed of considerable personal attractions, and a for ttiiiii
of 30.0001. it was what is generally termed a love-m*lOV
the Gentleman not having 501. per annum. The money
hid been bequeathed to the lady by a distant relation,
and it was settled by the will that, in the event of hey
marriage, she should not become mistress of her for-
tune until five years after the eelebration•of .the tit'.
tials; that period now arrived, and the husband and
wife, who had been living in retirement, proceeded
to London, to enjoy the pleasures of the metro- .
polio. Their income of 1,2001. a year eas not
found sufficient to keep pace with their exposer',
and their family now consisted of foist childnns;
they came to the resolution of spending a few years
on the continent,—and Nice bad been fixed upon
as their residence; the mild and delightful climate of
Piedmont, it was thought, would benefit the declining
health of the Lady. They set out on their journey, and
art ived a few week's ago' in Paris, where they purposed
remaining only a short time. , The husband had assn.
vet), little of the gaieties of a town life, but he bed not
been many days here before he became intoxicated with
the pleasures and dissipations of Parisian society.--
He received a great number of foreigners at his holt*, .
and many English, of suspicions character, were,
his daily companions. It may be necessary here to
state, that previous to his leaving England, he bad been •
injudiciously advised by some over-officious friends to
sell out the whole of his property invested in the Eaglidi
funds, and transfer it to thaFrencla,which would produce
5 instead of 4 per cent. The money was transmitted to a
banker's in Paris, butthe order to purchase was deferred,
the parties anticipating that the funds would decline
in value. Day after day the banker suggested the
propriety of investing the money, but the infatuated
husband continued to procrastinate, till at length, on re-
ceiving rather a sharp- remonstrance from the worthy
banker, who felt much interest towards a family that'
had been strongly recommended to him, the imprudent
and unfortunate man, in the irritation of the moment,
withdrew every shilling from the banker, and placed
the- money in another firm. - Had not this circum-
stance occurred, it • is- probable that Mr. would
have been saved from ruin, as the banker we allude
to would, bad he perceived that the principal was
being squandered away, have informed the lady or her
friends of the facts but the other mercliant, to wheat the
money wait- cunfi-ded:,- knowing nothing of the partied,
