A Terrible Romance.

In the year l766, a young girl of very
progressing appearance, from one oil the
interior provinces OF France, was place at
Paris in the service of a man depraved by
all the vices of that corrupt metropolis
Smtten with her charms he attempted her
ruin, but was unsuccessful. lncensed at
his defeat, he determined on revenge, and,
in furtherence OF his design, secretly placed
articles in her trunk belonging to him, and
marked with his name. He then denounced
her to magistrate, who caused her TO be
arrested, and the missing articles being
found in her possession, she was brought to
trial. In her defence she could only assert
her ignorance of the manner in which the
property came into her trunk, and protested
her innocence. She was found guilty, and
sentence of death was pronounced upon her.
The hangman's Office was inefiiciently per-
formed it being the first attempt OF the ex-
edutioper's son. The body was delivered
into he hands of surgeon, by whom il
had been purchased. He Immediately con-
veyed it home, and was proceeding to dss@ct
it, when he perceived a slight warmth about
the heart. By the prompt use of proper
ton. In tie meantime he had sent for a
trustworthy priest,and when the unfortunate
girl opened he eyes she supposed herself in
another world, and addressing the priest
(who man of marked and majestic coun-
tenance) exclaimed -" Eternal Father, you
know my innocence; have pity on me !"
In her simplicity believing that she beheld
her Maker, she continued to sue for mercy,
and il was some time before she realized she
was in the land of the living. Tile surgeon
and priest being fully convinced OF her in
nocence, she retired to village far distant
from the scene of her unjust punishment.
Tie community subsequently, became ac-
quainted with her story, and the author of
her misery became an object of reproach
and contempt, though it does not appear
that any attempt was made TO bring him to
Justice.

The Ups and Downs Of this Life.

About five years ago, among the fashion
able boarders at one of our prominent ho-
| tells in this city. were two fascinating and
well dressed ladies' and their husbands, who
mingled in the good society of that day, APP
parcntly the happiest and the most attract
i've in the circle in which they moved. The
| husbands Of both bting in the common par
| lance of the times, clever, whole-soulpd gen
| temen, always 7" hail fellow well met " with
everybody, and occupying prominent posi-
| tions, their society was courted in their cir
| Gle of friends and associates. Every Law
ishing expenditure was indulged in TO graft
fy the wishes of the ladies' in extravagant
dressing and entertaining their friends in
the rounds Of fashionable dissipation. Life
moved along seemingly all sunshine. and TO
the less favored, not cloud could be seen
to mar the pleasure Of their gay and happy
enjoyment. A few short years passed, and
one of the enchanting and once happy
wives, in her grlish days the pride of a
doing father and mother, resident of n
Southern city, educated In all the accom-
plishments Of one of the first Fem,le Sem
inaries, after dragging out a miserable sick
ness and disease, The result of former inn
prudence and dissipation, became the in
mate Of the County Poor House, wherr
death terminated her career. Her husband.
an actor of considerable reputation through
out the country, who years before, sepa-
rated from her, last season In bar-room
alteration in New Orleans was shot dead.
The husband of the other lady, few years
ago was detected in forgery or swindlina
op ion, for which he is now serving out
term of years in the Auburn Prison.
And now comes the last actor in this do
mestic drama. A few days ago in passing
through the Work House on a tour Of in
spection, among the inmates Of that instiiu-
| tion, our attention was called to one who
bore the appear ance Of having seen better
days, and on inquiring, we found il was the
unfortunate wife of the imprisoned conf
dence operator, and the last of the once IA
vored and attractive quartetie. Revellers
/ in wtath and luxury. she left her happy
home and parents in Philadelphia, to follow
the fortunes of one she had sworn TO love
homer and obey. She who once shone so
conspicuously at concerts, balls, and amid
the festive scenes, and by her accomplish
ments, beauty and all that goes TO make up
/ bewiiching woman, sunk so low seemed
almost impossible Step by step she had
fallen in her career Of dissipation and vice,
until from the former envable position she
occupied in the gay world Of fashionable
life, through the inAience of the intoxicat-
| ing cup, she had become 1.-The associate OF
the vulgar and abandoned characters such
as ill our prisons. Her hralth being so bad,
through the humanity CT ihase who exc.
