w hen he arrived at the frontier, he
made himself known to the agents who
eame to inspect his carriage, and re!a-
led to their chief officer what occur ed.
He recommended the most active vigi-
lance along the line and promised re-
ward Of Fifty louis to whoever would
seize the jewels Not a custom house
officer closed his eyes for three nights.
In the meantime, the Count reached
Paris. He was set down at his hotel.
embraced hi. wife and children and went
10 his own apartment to disembarrass
himself of his travelling costume. On
entering his apartment, the FIRST thing
that caught his eye was new and ele-
giant box on the mantel- piece. He ex-
amined it and read the following words
engraved Oh silver escutcheon Of the lid +;
Monsieur lc Count de ST. Cricq, direc-
teur- general des douaaes. On opening
it, he found the jewels he had pur-
chased in Geneva.
Beaut.e had bribed one Of The servants
of The inn, who. in helping the Count's
people 10 arrange their masters luggage,
contriyed to slip in the precious box.
The Counts valet de chamhre at Paris,
ad,niring its elegance and observing the
particular inscription on it, fastened to
place j. on the mantel piece, where j.
was found as rela.e,A The director
general of the customs was thus uncon
sciously the prime smugg'er of the king
dom!
Several other articles, sach as table
linen, earthen-ware etc, are regularly
smugged into France, and delivered in
Paris for the aforesaid commission of
FIVE per cent; all of which facts plainly
prove the utility ana efficiency of that
triple line Of custom house officers whom
we pay to guard our frontier.
Although Geneva has given birth to
men distinguish d in the arts and scien-
ces. commerce and manufactures are the
sole occupation Of .he inhabitants. Very
few of them are familiar with modern
li,erature and the chief clerk in bank
ing house here would consider himself
much humiliated if his importance were
placed on par with that of Lamartine
or Victor Hugo, whose names, probably,
have never reached his ears. The only
literature they appreciate is that Of the
Gymnase.
The drawing-room society at Geneva,
is that of our haussee DAntin in little;
with this exception, tha. no'wiihstaad-
ing the acquired fortune, the primitive
economy IS plainly discernible Every

merely tree planted by M. Arouet de
Voltaire himself, and every visitor was
expected to carry away piece of it.
Three months before, this wonderful tree
was nearly killed, and still seemed droo-
ping. A sacrilegous robber had got into
the park at night and carried off three
or four feet square of the holy bark.
"Some enthusiast of the Henriade
must have committed the outrage" said
! to the concierge.
"No, sir" he replied; "I believe it
YVES only speculator, who had received
an order from some foreigner"
When we left the garden, our guide
took US TO his own house, to show Us
Vollair's cane, which he had piously
preserved ever since the great mans
death. He determined long discourse
on this cane by offering it to Us far
louis, the hardness Of the times forcing
him to part with the precious relic. re-
piled that he asked too much for it, as |
knew a subscriber to the Toquet edi-
ton Of his masters works to whom he
had, eight years ago, sold similar one
for twenty francs.
We took our coach again, and started
for Coppet, where we were set down at
the chateau Of Madame de S.ael.
Here was no loquacious guide, nor
chapel dedicated to God, nor tree with
the bark scraped off; bat fine park,
free for admission to the whole village,
and . poor woman, who shed genuine
tears while speaking Other mistress and
showing us the rooms she once Inhabited,
bu. where nothing now remains Of her,
We asked to see her writing table, which
mus. yet be. stained with the ink from
her pen, and The bed still warm with
her last sigh; but nothing Of this sort
had been held sacred by her family. Her
bed chamber had been converted into
drawing and IFS furniture scattered
| know not where. Perhaps, in all the
chateau, there was not copy Of Del
phine.
We asked permission to visit the fami-
.R sepulchre; bat a tes.amen:ary dispo-
s,sion of Nj. de Neck1r, has shut it from
the curiosity of visitors.
We had left Ferney with rnir.h enough
70 las. for a week: we departed irom
Coppet in a rnu h mere serious mood.
Our coach took us to the quay just III
time for the steamer, by which we were
10 so to lausanne.

Al the close Of a tranquil day, in the
autumn of ls--, asccnded the gentle
eminence which overlooks the town of
W, situated in one cf the most de-
tigh!ful regions Of Pennsylvania. | had
ccepted an invitation from my travel
ing companion, an artist ito accompany
him On pleasant tour, in search Of
health, which a residence in the city du
ring the intense heat of summer, had
title impaired. My flicnd gazcd with

heir irregular undulations, as they lay
reposing in the mellow light which az
tends the gorgeous setting of an autumn
sun. srgr i
The little village beneath our feet was
surprisingly reai and beautiful. Pretty
white buildings with pleasant enclosures,
were scattered along the bread street, and
here and there mansion, indicating By
its outward resemblance of village spien-

pants. We a:ightea at the village inn,

Alexander by Quintus Curtius, found
among the luggage of the Duke of Bur-
gundy after the battle of Grandson; and
the accounts of the household of Philip
the Handsome, written on tablets ofwax.

vinists, who diedin l64s, Kenig- Feden !;
he was inferred here with his wife, the
daughter of Sully.
And, finally, the house of Jean JAG
ques-Rousseau, which is designated in
a street Of the same name, by slab of
marble bearing this inscription:
lei EST NE J. J. Rousseau LA 29JUIN,
l7l2.
After making the tour OF the city, we
ordered caleche and drove to Ferney,
where we arrived in two hours.
The first thing that attracts notice be-
fore entering the chateau, is little
chapel; its inscription is chef-d douyre,
and yet it is composed of but three Latin
words:
DEo ERExIr VolrAlRE.
The object Of the inscription is to prove
to the world-which has been very un-
easy about the controversy between the
creature and the Creator-that Voltaire
and his Maker are at length reconciled.
The world cannot but receive this news
with satisfaction; Although il viii always
suspect vol,aire Of having made the frs.
advances.
We crossed the garden, ascended a
few steps, and found ourselves in the
anti chamber, where the pilgrims who
come to worship the god Of irrehgion
collect their ideas before they enter the
sanctuary. The concierge inforEs them
so!emniy tina. nothing has been changed
and that they are about to see the apart
ment of "a. de Voltaire just as he left 1t.
The aplomb Of this man, who las
charge ef showing the place 20 strangers,
is wonderful to observe. lie entered
the service Of the great man when a
child, so that he possesses fund of an
ecdo,es about his master, which perfectly
enrap:ures his listeners. When we
reached the beds chamber, family par
ty was grouped around him, who in
haled every word that fell from hislips !;
and whose admiration for the philoso-
pher expanded even to the man who
had BACKED his shoes and powdered his
wig. Every time the speaker pronoun-
ced, with an infection of voice peculiar
10 himself, the sacramental words Nj.
Arouet de Vo'.aire, he lifted his hand 10
his hat, ana the discreet dcyo,ees around
him, who probably wou!dnot have dcne
as much before the cross, scrupu!ously
initiated his reverential ges.urts.
Ten minu u,es, alter this, it was our turn
TO be edited: the others had paid their
fee and departed, and the cicerone be-
onged EXCESSIVELY to ourselves. He
promenaded us through rather pretty
garden, whence the philosopher had
charming prospect; showed rs the CO.
yer4d wax where he composed his fine
tragedy of Ireue; and leaving us mo-
rnent, he cut from a tree small piece
OF bark, which be presented to me. 4
put it to my nose and tongue, thinking
there must be something remarkable in
its smell or taste; but nctso. !. was
