geeret Fessares,

In 1850, when Monsieur de Lonvois was
Frsnch Minister Of War, he summoned
bstors him one day. q gentleman named
sChamiIly, and gave him the following m
Estructions:

De Chamilly obeyed. He reached Basic,
and on the day and at-the hour appointed
stationed himself, pen in hand, on Inc
bridge. Presently q market carr aEiss %
| by: 3 then an old woman with basket OF
fruit passes; anon, alittle urchin trundies
his hoop by; next an old gentleman IN
blue top coat joys past on his gray mare;
Three o'clock chimes from the cathedral
tower. Just at the last stroke, 9 tai man,
in yellow waistcoat and brooches, saunterS
nm. goes to the middle of the bridge,
lounges over, and looks at the water; then
| he takes a step back, and strikes three &c
hearty blows on the footway with his stan.
Down goes every detail in De Chamilly's
book. At last the hour of release sounds,
and he Jumps into his carriage. Shortly
before midnight, after two days OF cease,
Hess travelling, De Chamilly presented
himself before the Minister, feeling rather
ashamed at having such trifes TO record
Monsieur de Louyois took the portfolio
with eagerness, and glanced over the notes
AS bis eye caught the mention OF the vel,
How breeched man, q CLEAN of JOY flashed
across his countenance. he rushed to the
king. reused him from sleep, spoke IN
private with him for few moments, and
then four couriers, who he'd been held IN
readiness since S on the preceding evening,
were dispatched with haste. Eight days
after. the town Of Strasburg was entirely
surrounded by French troops and sum- l
moned to surrender. It capitulated and
threw open its gates on the 3oth OF Sep.
TENDER, 1851. Evidently the three strokes
of the stick given by the fellow in yellow
costume at an appointed hour were the
signal of the success of an intrigue. con;
certed between Monsieur de Louvois and
the magistrate of Strasburg; and then
the man who executed this mission was 81
ignorant of the motive as was Monsieur &c
Chamilly of the motive Of his.
Now, this is specimen Of the safest o.
all secret communications, but it can only
be resorted to on certain rare OCCASIONS

A Story FROM PARIs.-A Paris letter
tells the following story of a Twelve-Night
Fete in that city:
A wealthy family in the aristocratlc
boulevard Malesherbes We're amusing
themselves in seeking the kings portion,
|. or the ring, in the festival cake, when laay
of the company says to the hostess: II
wish INV portion to be given the poorest
little bow we can find in the street" Inc
servant was dispatched on this freezing
night, and not far from the house ne tound
a ragged urchin, trembling with colo ana
hunger. he brought him up. and ordered
him into the gay saloon, where tnou-
sand lights glittered, and a sparkling
fire gladdened the eyes of the poor lit
tie fellow. Dumbfounded and surprised,
he drew the portion which the benevo-
lent lady had promised, and, as luck
would have it, the little fellow found the
string" fbeans they use in Paris Unsteady,
and of course he was king" They 81
shouted out that, being a king, he mus
choose queen. He was asked so to do,
and, looking round the company, he choosed
the very lady who had proposed to cede
her portion of the cake. He was asked
why he chose her. He said !" l don't
know she looks the most like mother /"
i"Mother whose mother 2" "My mother /!
L never knew her, but was stolen away
from her, and here isher portrait :" With
this he drew from out his ragged coat
likeness which proved to be that OF the
very lady herself, who, in Italy, had her
children stolen from her; and now he
turns up poor, little ragged Savoyard,
dragging along miserable existence in
Paris, while the mother, by an intuition,
perhaps, felt that in the air near to where
she was, was one so dear to her.
