ANECDOTES OF UDE.
. Twioe az much.

Ude was, we are Informed, originally intend.
ed for the church. His destiny was strangely
altered An able, who was his instructor IN
his early years, bee anne an object o. popular
hatred, which as usual, extended itself 10 all
connected with him. Passing along the street,
Ude was recognised, pursued by a hos, OF as
sailanrs, and took refuge in a bakers shop -
Tir man, touched with compassion, concs aled
him in cold oven, and assured the pursuers
that he had escaped from the back. Ude re-
manned for safety with the baker, was INITIATED
in the system OF his craft, and transferred 10 q
SON in law, cook, ia the Rue ST. Auioine.-
Hence he was removed to the royal kitchen,
and became chief cook to Louis Sixteenth.

were not more alike than Ude and certain
NJ PeriHeur, hanger-on about court, IN the
DAYS IF Louis Srizeme, when Ude was Cuisi-
nier Royal. PeriAeur, who had produced a
heavy book OF poems, which no body would
read, was aceos,ed by man Of Equality as Udc,
who had Just published his Cook. 'Ah, we'll !!
YOU are a clever f-llow; have read your book. >
Indeed! and pray Monsieur-''Oh excellent!

Ude is said 20 have had sad work when in
Paris, BY the insertion in pate Of an article al
least as strange. Ude had fallen III lowe
fraiI,y incident to gods and eooks-and matters
were nearly brough, to matrimony Precious
however, to his taking ,hls last measure, Ude
prudently made = calculation he is al excel

Madame's expenditure a, so man. Loa's. Now
i, was customary with NJ. Ude to convey his
billet. in the envelope of pasty- work; and
having made up his mind ID commit marriage,
he wrote TO his intended, with an offer OF his
hand and heart and this note was intended 10
be shrouded in Pate d .9mande; unfortunately,
in the confusion Of love and cookery, the esti-
mate Of house keeping was sen, ips'ead Of the
proposal The mex, day NJ Ude was apprised
OF his mistake by the receipt Of an episle from

which she held NJ. Ude; but that as-Louis
