A LOVERS TEST.
How to Get Married-A Paris
o-Is ian Novelette,,


One fine morning in autumn,
Llnval was taking a walk in
the Tulleries at Paris, and
found an open billet contain,
ing the following lines: eff the
person who finds this paper is
disposed to do a benevolent
action, he is requested to in
quire at No. 346 Rue Santiago,
for Eugenie de Mirande. Such
as may not be inclined to
assist an unfortunate mother
are entreated, at least, not TO
hinder others, and to throw the
billet again where they found
it."
Linval, the best dancer in
PARIS, was just humming a new
tune; he picked up the paper,
and after reading il, whiSked
it up into the air with his cane
and pursued his walk. The
next person who noticed it was
an elderly man, simply dressed,
who was hurrying to a public
office in which he had a place,
because he was already late.
He contrived, nevertheless, to
spare so much time as was
necessary to read the billet;
which, however, Struggling up
his shoulders and raising his
eyes to heaven, as much as TO
say, "That is no concern of
mine," he carefully replaced it
in its former situation. lie

eral one of those moderate
people who are satisfied if they
can clear three thousand livres
a day; who elated by their
wealth, give themselves airs OF
much consequence, and OF
whom La Bruyere says, they
"hem loud and spit far" AT
first he kicked the billet along
with his foot, but his curiosity
being excited, he took il up'
threw his eyes over it with a
scornful smile, and amused
himself in tearing it in pieces,
at the same time muttering,
San impudent imposture."
The next molnlng a similar
billet lay on the same spot
The first person who read it,
took down the address in his
pocket-book and replaced the
paper. Next came a young
couple who had not long been
married, and picked up the bill
let. Julia, who expected in
about three months to become,
for the first time, a mother,
said to her husband, "Let us
go, my DEAR what we can offer
is little, to be sure; but in
many cases a little may save
the unfortunate from despair
come, let us CO." They accord
ingly went. After they had
found the specified number in
the Rue Santiago, they learned
that the house was inhabited
by an old physician, who had
retired from practice and was
thought to be rich, and had
only one daughter, ,distin-
guished for understanding and
talents. They ascended a
handsome staircase and were
ushered into an apartment on
the first floor, which was fur
nished, not magnifcently, but
with great taste. They in
