Mr. -BLEArrrr said that this measure was, in the opinion
of the country, pressed in such an aristocratic and despotic
manner, that he' should move the chairman do report pro-
gress and ask leave-4 sit again.
After some short discussion, in the course of which Lord
J. RUSSELL and MrrPROTHEROE opposed the motion of
Mr. Blewitt, the committee divided, and the adjournment
was negatived by a majority of 328 to 51.
A warm discussion on the question of adjournment again
ensued, in the course of which Mr. F. M PLULE announced
his intention to vote again in the minority for the adjourn-
ment, determinedly for the purpose of delay, because the
people of Scotland had had no time to have any knowledge
Of the bill, which knowledge he was resolved to procure for
them if he could.

Clare from Galway, and near its extremity, on a river, lies
the village of Scarriff. The Galway shore is here strewed
with numerous islets, amongst which the largest is Holy
Island,—formerly resorted to by devotees, and celebrated for
its ancient round tower. The eastern arm (if it may be so

called) terminates in a creek or indenture, (near whieli is the
town of Nenagh,) and is known as Youghail (or Loughall)

Bay, in Tipperary, from between the niouth of which and
Hare Island, close to Parrowhill Point on the Galway side,
the lough extends, of increased width, in a north-eastward,
but somewhat irregular, direction, with strongly indented and
comprising all that is beautiful in lake

as regards the navigation of so tine a sheet of water.
Near the mouth of Youghall Bay, on its south-west side,
we passed Garra Kennedy—a stately castellated ruin amongst
trees, where there is a station for the steamers. Eastward
of it, op the north side of the bay, is another fine ruin, called,
I believe, Castle Canby. A little further on, on the same
side of the lough, at the head of Dromineer Bay, stands
Dromineer Castle, another large pile peering over gigantic
woods. Opposite to this bay are the Quoirgies—a cluster of
small islands; and on the Galway shore is Cow Island, (at
which a landing place is contemplated by the Shannon com-
missioners) with several villas near it on the main.
The channel is, in some parts, marked out by beacons of
loose stone, rising above the surface in conical piles. About
this period of our voyage we passed a beautiful little inn and
outbuildings, on the Galway side, built in the Elizabethan
Gothic style, with embattled blocking. This, together with
a pier close to it, enclosing a basin for boats, is one of the
steam-boat stations. It was recently erected, we learn, by
C. W. Williams, Esq., and is called Williams' Town. The
entrance, with a pointed arch, has a neat Striking appearance.

R'wLAND'S MACASSAR OIL is universally acknow-
ledged as well deserving the station it now holds of the
highest public distinction. It prevents Hair. from falling off
ill or turning grey to the latest period of life ; acmes grey hair
to its original colour; frees it from squ . and renders it
beautifully soft, curly, and glossy. In di sing Hair, it keeps
it firm in the curl, uninjured by daiip weather, crowded
rooms, the dance, or in the exercise of riding. To Children,
it is invaluable, as it lays a foundation for a beautiful head
of hair.

Within the last few years a little stall, mounted on broad
wheels, has disappeared from Pont Neuf. It stood on the
footpath, nearly facing the Rue Dauphine. The stall was
surmounted by a vane painted white, shaped like an ori•
flamme. Upon one side might be read, "To the tomb of

on the other, the paint,

with the following loser

Writer

The stall was a sort of hut, rudely constructed of irregular
planks, covered with pieces of sail-cloth. A low door opened
towards the Seine, to insure greater secrecy to persons who
frequented the place, and to permit those who entered to
avoid the observation of the curious. As for the furniture

of the interior, it was c
elbow-chair, a stra

seat, and a table of black wood. On

Towards the close of the winter of 1808, a young man
whose countenance indicated anything but intellectuality
entered the stall of Master Rigois the Writer, and placed
upon the little black table a four-sous piece. The sight of
the money somewhat softened the usually sullen look of the
owner of the hut, who sat at his desk waiting for his cus-
tomers.

CHAPTER H.-THE FATE OF THE LETTER.

RifolC quickly hurried away with the letter, and delivered
it at the office of the minister of police. He then returned
to his wife Agatha, whom he had left in charge of his shop,
on a ground floor in the Rue Montmartre. Agatha was a
short, plump, little woman, with cheeks and brow of fair red
and white—her eyes sparkling and animated. She stood at
the threshold, and greeted her husband with a loving kiss.

" Well?"
" Well ; my letter is delivered. Heaven grant that the
minister may read it, and give us a favourable reply

" Oh, that be surely will. You know he can refuse no-
thing to Pere Lombois. What a lucky thing it was of you
to think of your godfather ! for during the six months that
we have been married, we have hardly earned enough to pay
our rent."

" That is true, good wife. It is fortunate we were able to
let the little room above our shop."
" Yes, indeed," said Madame Rifole, "and to a lodger so
amiable and gentle, and who gives so little trouble, and goes
out so soon in the morning, that you have not yet seen him ;
to say nothing of reckoning that he pays 20 francs a month
for his room." _ _ .

" Ah ! if Monseigneur the Due d'Otranto will but give
me his custom," sighed Rifole, " you shall not bereduced
to do the work of a servant. Dressed like an empress, you'
shall not quit your counter, and you shall have servants in
plenty to wait.upon you." _ _

The rest of the afternoon and the next day seemed long
enough to the tailor. Every time that the hoof of a horse
was heard in the street, he ran to the threshold, expecting to
see a courier arrive from the minister of police. Alas ! night
came on without any one bringing the answer of the Duc
d'Otranto. The morrow proved equally replete with dis-
appointment, and fifteen days also passed away. Jacques
Rifole, in a state of deep discouragement, saw his most pro-
mising chances of fortune vanishing ; he therefore sat him-
self down seriously to think that ha had better return to
Tours than stop to be ruined outright in Paris. Neverthe-
less his pride revolted at the idea of meeting with his old
friends and acquaintances, labouring under the shame of
being unsuccessful, and all his hopes wrecked, though so
loudly indulged in at his departure.
Nevertheless, poverty was approaching him quickly ; he
therefore resolved to fly. Heartsick, he declared to his little
wife that he would give up his shop, and bid Paris adieu.

•
•
On the morrow, as Rifohi was making arrangements to
give up his little dwelling to its owner, a mounted dragoon
rode up full trot, and stopped at his door, handing to the
poor astonished, half-stupitied tailor one of those great let-
ters in those gigantic envelopes which are used only for mi-
nisterial despatches.
