The jury retired and after an absence

The tGOldslnith's Apprentice.

Rascally Cardinal thought Julian,
may thank him for all this mischief: but
for him Master Roullard would have not
lost his temper. should still be his fore
man, and perhaps one day might become
husband of my JEANNE.
This consideration seemed to add to his
hatred ior the Prime Minister. Mechan-
ichanicaIly he undid a parcel, and began
10 turn over the pamphlets it contained.
They consisted Of memorandums relative
to the affairs of Spain, pasquinades against
Mcsdames Mazarin's nieces, and lastly,
a satrical biography of the Cardinal.
Julian read over this letter with careless
indifferen ence but suddenly started with
an exclamation of surprise. He had Just
resd the following paragraph;
Previously to taking orders, The Car
dinal had served in the army; he COM
manded a regiment in 1925, and the gen.
erals of the Pope, Cont and Bagesi, gave
him mission to the Marquis of Cauvres.
His Eminence followed him to GrenobIe,
where he spent two months under rhe
name Of Captain Juliano"
The young artisan read and re-read
this passage with tremor Of delgh,
scarcely to be expressed. The names,
dates, and places, left no room for doubt
The captain mentioned in the pamph.
let must, Of necessity, be tie individual
who sto,d sponsor for him at his bap
tsm. Julian was no less person thar
the godson of his Eminence!
He jumped up in ectasy, tossing
hat in The air, loudly shouting, ' The
Cardinal is my godfather
Casting all his papers TO the wind, save
that which furnished him with this
valuable intelligence. he set off at rur
towards Maitre Roulard's, to acquain
him and his niece with this unexpected
discovery; but suddenly he recoilectet
himself. The goldsmith might not choose
to listen to him, or might refuse to believe
him, and turn him out of doors a secont
time. Besides, the first business was tC
establish his right; and then, once unde
the protection of his godfather, he though
himself pretty sure of the goodwill o
Maitre Roullard, who seldom refused hi
friendship 10 the rch aud powerful.
So he changed oissmin and after hov
ing run to the ittle garret he occupied
near The Paiais dc Justice, for his bapt,s
NAL Ger tifcate, he proceeded full speet
to the 6 ardinM's palace.
On reaching his destination, he aske,
for 'countrymen of his, named Pierr
ChottaFt, who occupied the important POS
of head scullion in the Cardinals kitchen
Difference in political opinion had kep
these two werthies apart for some years
and Chottart ssarcely recognised his ol,
schoofellow.
However, after an excha nge of civil
ties, he asked Julian what good wind ha.
blown him there to which he answered h,
had come to speak to the Cardinal.
The scullion naturally thought the poo
fellows brain was turned but withou
vouchsafng an explanation, Julian persis
leu that he must see his Eminence at al
risks. -
ana SO You supposed you had onl,
70 sehd your name up, old boy!' askel
Chctiart ironically.

1t has been said of the late celebrated
Ro,hschld that, though no man was less
lavish of his money, no one was more
ready to detect love Of it in Others.
1t was one day. while at city fast, a

thought venlson very good; but that he
loved mutton better. "Ah, ha knowsh

THE VILLAGE.


oi, a pleasant spot is our village jme,
By the side Of yon peaceful stream,
Where the walers glide o'er the pebbles
white,
Like thoughts througha peaceful dream
Where the winds sweep by, with silvery
sigh,
Ger rich unfOlded flowers,
And the wild bird singeih its sweetest song,
In our beautiful forest bowers.
That stand all mantled in glorious green,
Round this village home of ours.
The mountain darkens the rivers breast,
With its shining robes OF green,
And far, far down in the water depth,
lis shadoS is dimIy seen;
Withihe cedar srreaiing ,tsboughs sfar,
AID the willow dropping low,
Just lightly tOuching he sparkling waves,
As onward they softly go,
Half mirthfuIly chained the ripples bright.
hs tHtJ toss thtuf W duo ho.
And a quiet spot is our village home,
When the tolls of day are done,
And the wearied ones frcm wOr return
To their heath stones, ono by one;
Norevel shout on the air is heard,
From tavern close and dm,s
No sound is heard on the Silly night,
Save the villagers evening hymn;
The wine cup stands on the shelf untouched
And dry is the goblets brm.
No marble ma, sion rear ed On high,
In this village home of ours,
But humble, lowly cots have We,
Encircl d dwiIh vIres and howers;
The indows are manled Nth roses bright,
And the jasmine p re aud fair,
Which the maidens gather at eventide,
To wreaths II their BRAIDED hair.
There are lveiier homes on his sar h,
K ow,
There are Otter co.'s than oars,
There are Ich,r seen S, there are softer
winds;
There are brighter sH ee er foW ers !;
But al,ho' ,hei IN nsions may richer be,
Tho their iniow- in gra dcur CLEAN,
Tnough lie sceues around Lucm BE- big htel
far,
Than the poets or painters dream.
No place to our osom AN be so dear,
As our home by the willowy stream.

HoTrENToT WivEs.-The Hotlentot
females are at once the LATEST and most
i'll used of woman. The priest, when he
maries them, blesses them saying: "May
you live happy, and year-a-year bear a
son, who may live to be good hunter and
a warrior It is needless to say that this
%ish is not always gratfed. So long as
her husband exists, the Hottentot woman
is the slave and drudge of the hut, and on
her devolves the task of providing for
the sustenance of the family, while the
husband eats, drinks, smokes and sleeps.
When the Hottentot wive becomes wild
ow, she must continue SO for life. unless
she chooses to purchase a husband at a.
price, which. according, to our notions
is something more than the, delights OF o
wife in Hotten'ot mairlmOny would war
rant. The II t'eniot son, on coming of
age, is presented with a~cu6gel, with
which he is commanded to beat his mot-
er; and this request is very duiifully com.
piled with by the son, in order to test
his strength and ability, =" just as some
youths are prone to evince their manhood
by smoking cigars and swearing profane.
ly.' 1t is strange that the mother, tho
often fai ing under the cruel beatings of
her son whom she has nursed at her bos-
ON, does not reproach him; but she ad-
mires the manliness and dexterity in pro
portion to the chas,isement.

The lot of 10000 lbs. of rice mentioned
in our paper few days ago, as having
been purchased by Chinaman, is por-
ton of her cargo. Our Chinese mrr-
chants are noted for their shrrwdneSs and
business tact, and it is hardly to be sup
posed that they would enter into snch
venture without good grounds for doing
so, and at least a reasonable prospect Of
success. Indeed the amount of business
done by these people is immense, and .ew
of our citizens, not directly interested or
engaged in commercial pursuits are at all
aware Of the extent and value OF their
business transactions. The bond books
in the Custom House contain annIstak-
able evidence of their wealth. many OF
them have large lots Of goods in bond,
and do a regular importing business.
