"Jaqugs Bouhommjt," pari, corrr>pou-
dent, relates the following auyodotc, which
he locates in tha, city:
\ young man OF huc family, though inn
poNcr>hcd by the revolution, a>pjyyd to a
post under government to occupy which it
was necessary to furnish Il certain sum to
deposit aS security. Our hero could not OH
tam the requisite amount ,rom his friends.
and, at last, hit upon an eNpcuont to put
an end to the difficulty. He caused an ad-
ycrtlacmcnt to appear in one OF the Journals
OF Paris, as follows:
~ young man, occupying am honorable
position, WISHES to marry a lady we'll brought
up, and possessed Of two hundred and dlly
tyuuas."
Two hundred and City frames are but
AiJy collars, and as there are many women
in the world who would be glad to purchase
a Young, handsome, and houorably conncc-
ted husband, ON such moderate terms, il wa,
quite natural that the ADVERTISER in the
course Of three days during which the notice
appeared in r"bAc, should have received
many letters and al alpNIa,,ons.
Ihe young man addressed note to each
of the applicants, appointing a place and
hour Naca lie would moyl tAcm altogether;
aud politely inviting all % come anG look at

and il is said the company numbered tive
hundred women.

organized the moctr~, and made u speech
in which he thanked th.s, ladies' for tho
honor phcy proposed cou.cwiug uon him.
