superior even to his own. La Porte was
released from the Bastile the King sent
for his wife, and became rcconcied to her
after years Of estrangcmcnt and scpara-
ton. Within twelve months she b2rc
him a son, who was afterwards Louis XIV,
the proudest monarch France has ever
seen. On the death of Louis Nlll, La
Porte was rewarded for his fidelity by be-
ing appointed gentleman of the bcdcham-
Der to the young king, whom he used to
regard as the child Of his obstinate reti-
ccncc.
What fearful picture does the above
narrative present Of the corrupt state of
society in Faancc two hundred years
ago. All the obligations Of morality
and religion are unhestatiugly ignored
and cast aside; deceit, dclusion, falsehood
are the weapons Of either party; and the
contest on which depend the life and the
honor of a gentleman and queen, is won
at last by persistant mcndacity against
courtly cruelty and hatred, aud sasplcions
for which, ba!llol as they were, there
were yet ample grounds. Yet such must
ever be the poisoned atmosphere Of courts
where the pure principles of Christianity
are no adopted and acted upon.

this work, as well as that at Key West,

of advising the removal Of troops to
Fort Taylor, and also to have guns sent

Tho Dry Tortugas.
Is DsToS, Aug. -.

To the Editor Of tie Boston JonrH4l:
In your issue of Tuesday evening, no.
ticc a short article relating to TortagaS,
As the statements therein made are er-
roncous, | would like to say word IN
the way of correction.
The Tortugas Keys or Islands form the
extreme westernmost portions OF the
Florida reefs the largest portion Of the
reef is under water. Certain parts Of
the reefs have been elevated by the action
Of the winds and waves, 50 as to become
dry, and now many OF them present a
respectable appearance as islands covered
with tropical vegetation. The cocoa
palm and mangrove, both clothed with
herichcst foliage, thrive remarkably well.
These islands are sometimes called Dry
Tortugas.
Garden Key, so called, was select
ed some thirteen years since as the
best point for a government naval depot
1t is an island of about thirteen acres.
Fort Jefferson completely covers it.
When completed the work will mount 500
guns. Within, what with tropical flow
erinc trees and shrubs, the cottages and
work shops, and the fine large brick block
for officers quarters, the place has quite
a cheerful aud village like appearance

A Modest Claim.

"All We ask is to be let ono."-JEfF DAVIS,
A trifling boon for traitor hosts
To claim at loyal hands
A meek demand, mid Southern boasts,
10 come with grace from rebel hands.
" Let us alouct" was Arnold cry,
When foilcd IN treason's lighter decd;
q" Let me IN peace to England fly.
Without coercion in my speed"
"Lct us alone - was echoed wide
In Shay's rebellion, and in times
OF whlskcy riots, that dehed
The arm of law TO reach their crimes.
"Let us alone - was Burr's demand,
In dark conspiracy of yore;
"Why interfere for foreign land,
And guard SO strict an alien shore:
Let us alone ;" was kidd's own prayer,
When coasting wide with iratc crew,
And dealing death-u slight affair
To every prize that came i'll view.
"Let us alone why art thou come
Us to torment before the time :"
The evil sprits-clsewhe dumb
Could ask OF Christ, despite their crime
- let us alonc!" was sounded far
Through Heavens vast conclavc, i'll alarm
by rebel angels when at war
Against the power of Gud's right arm.
"Let us alone I" the South unw claim
When every Hap of Freedoms flag.
PORTS TO that deed 4" without a name -
That dared IN dust our banner drag.
- let US alone" No! NEyrR NO.
While treason stalks o'er Ian 1 and sea,
And arms proclaim ctel fee
