The Freneh Conspiracy.

/ rom the London Tmcs, Ags. II.
But of all the feeble conspiracies that we
have heard OF. this last French one was the
ieeb!est. Here are men corresponding with
each other by the post in terms which no
policeman in France could misunderstood. -
One letter speaks OF the tou,Yea. who is 10
go to his destined place and urges speed
upon the agent employed. a letter il an.
swer says" Dur uraIid rs 40 bcite,. lie
comes here at long intervals, but think it
will he difficult to cure him in this way. -
But while they are corresponding about the
( exccutioner who is TO he sent somewhere.
and "our invalid" who is to be cured
while this assassin slang is passing through
the public post Office, the agents dawdle
about their task in such way that we see
worry clearly at last that they never even in
tended To execute ii. Two byayoes, Bart
olotti and Grill, are hired in this country
and sent to Paris they receive $40 in anti
cipation of the service they are TO perform.
Ga arriving in Paris they pat themselves
into communication with third person, and
u resident of Parls--Tibaidi, whoscloIgings
are the headquarters Of the conspiracy and
ntain lis magazine.
These two brayOcs. with their $40 each,
bunge about Paris enjoying themselves, and
apparently making no attempt whatever t.
execute their task Excuses are sert 10 the
employers for BOT doing anything. The "in.
valii only comes at intervals and his
cure is very di.iicuIt. The employers
have IN urge their agents on. and 70 express
their strong suspicion that they ARE attend
ing to their own pleasure instead 81 to their

about too much, and Is "A little too much
in love. The employer cndoayors n his
letter 10 lnstil little seriousness into him.
" hen one is concerned in interests o: this
sort. everything else shcid be forgotten.
TIA; it is difficult to inspire two braves
who have fi0 10 spend over their own
amusemcnts in Paris with dsin,eres,cd
i!cas o. duty. They are not conscientious
enough to commit murder. and show n de.
