Recent Adventures OF a Young American at Paris.
From French journal we translate the fol-
lowing, which may serve rs n lesson and a warm
ing to inexperienced travellers
"Edward L., a young American, early placed
in possession Of handsome fortune, had repaired
to London with the intention of making short tar
r. in that city and then visiting the Exhibition mt
Paris. lie took passage on board the packet boat
I n France, and made acquaintance of two Young
Frcnchmen, elegantly blessed AMI of distinguish
ed manners, who offered him cigars and promised
to introduce him into the best society of the French
elpital. 3" t
On arriving at Paris, they took him to one of
their friends, who rs they said, was rich gentle
man of Rio Janero. After taking some refresh
inents, they went out to visit some of the monu-
ments and curiOsties, but found all these places
closed. Expressing their regret at this disap-
pointment, the companions of the young Ameri-
Can invited him to take some ice cream in cafe
and then proposed game Of cards to pass off the
time.
The pretended Brazilian declared on his part,
that he should only play six gold or bank bills

stripped. lie then noticed that his companions
exchanged signs, and his partner on dealing took
pinch of snuff and placed upon the table his
| gold snuff box, smooth mirror, and which re-

Greeks, he managed to repress his Indignation,
and fegning to he carried away by the game, de
clared that although he had lost 10000 frances,
he would willingly go after fresh sum. On
leaving he repaired to the police department, and
made statement Of his case.
The magistrate at once took measures to arrest
the chevaers of industry; but having probably
scented something, they had left the coffee room.
Their description was, however, Immediately given
