CHAPTER XIV.

After returning her thanks to the Captain of
the Indian Qneen, Cecilia started out into the
city to find some cheap place to live in. The
little child dressed in odd fitting clothes, with
the great shawl wrapped around her, and her
bundle of clothes under her arm or on her
shoulder, attracted much attention as she
trudged along the streets, looking curiously
around ut everything that was new or inter
estipg to her. Many people stopped to look back
and wonder who the strange young creature
was, and, once twice, some kind hearted
person, thinking that she probably belonged
to some emigrant train, and had lost her way,
spoke to her, inquiring where she was going.
Once q round faced, good natured looking gen
tleman, took the cigar from his mouth as he
was passing, and, smiling pleasantly, was
about to say something to her, when another
gentleman came mp, and greeting him with
friendly warmth, began with ",Pon my soul,
Dick, Pm glad to see you back! When did you
get home How have you been 7" and the two
passed on, chatting pleasantly together. At
last she found herself on Charities street, then
the street for dry goods, millinery and fancy
articles. A few steps from Canal street she
stopped to admire tie goods displayed in the
window of large dry goods store, and was
wishing that she had plenty of money, to buy
some of the silks and other pretty articles,
when she observed lady coming down the
store towards her. She was tall and queen
like in figure and carriage, her luxuriant hair,
richly black and fine, was combed in bandeaux,
her features were beautiful and regular, her
eyes were black, full and sparkling, and her
face, q little pale, bore an expression OF digni-
ty and refnemen, that commanded respect
and admiration from all beholders. The clerk,
who had politely followed her to TIE door,
bowed as abe passed out and said
GOOD evening, Mrs. Macourty."
Cecilia thought that she had never before
seen, a lady so beautiful, and the pleased ex-
preston of the child's face must have been
noticed by the lady, for she stopped moment
to look at the strange figure, and then went
over to where the girl was standing. They
stood there silent for some minutes, when MIRA
Hacourty asked her if she thought of making
purchase.
"1 wish had the money" Cecilia replied
to buy that green silk, it's so pretty"
" Yes it is" said Mrs. insecurity, looking at
the queer costume aud large bundle of the
child's ;"where are you goingp
don't know, ma'am.n
where do you live p
don't live any where, now" replied Ce
celia, looking mp into the sweet face that bent
over her, just come here from New York.

The following very readable sketch of
this recent leader of the Paris Red Re-
publicans we take from late number of
the London Standard:
A man, vigorous of form and that which
form contains, who has the faculty of i'm
pressing himself on Others and making
them his instruments. Above the middle
height, strongly built, though somewhat
rounded and stopped, with an upper face
that is admirable from its high, broad fore.
head, piercing eyes. and spirited nostrils /;
but an upper that is utterlysbad, al ugly
mouth, with lips that curl out ward under u
shoe brush, short moustache of iron erey
like dogs, aud n chin and lower jaw that
would not look out of place in the likeness
of ticket of-leave man who has received
penal servitude as the reward for his good
qualities as garrotter. Such was the man
who entered latest into the Brasserie Rho
name before quilted it, and who is the
last and central figure in this sketch. "WhO
is he 7" asked my Irish acquaintance. U
fear that my Irish friend left his country
because of some little difference with the
constituted authorities on the question of
how Ireland could best be governed but
they were Wings and he was young, and
that will repair itself) "He," answered
my Hibernian, sis Cluseret." And
who, pray, is Ciuseret 2" asked again.
All, see you have not read the London
papers lately. Scotiand-yard knows Gu
seret, and l know him. He owes me one
hundred francs" 1 was not surprised at
the latter admission; these reds are quite
capable of borrowing q five pound note
from the first conner, and quite capable of
forgetting to repay it. But was anxious
to ascertain what Scotland-yard had to do
with Cuseret. This, simply" said my
informant: che was the commander in :
chief designate of the insurrection in Ire
land which never came of. He escaped ar
rest because he had the prudence never to
trust his four bones on Irish coil, nOt-like
unhappy FariOla, who was caught and sen,
b prison, and let out like q vagrant to en-
joy liberty ia bare feet on the snow covered
streets of Dublin" was interested by the
information the Irishman gave me of tbiG
man, and pressed him for more. These, al
far as can recOllect, were his words after
"Cluseret is of Spanish family, settled in

la 1861 he was appointed colonel on Nc.
Clellan's staff. During the course of tho
campaign Of the following year, he rose to

after McClellan's removal, he quarreled
with the War Office because it would not
| adopt plan which he held to be the only
feasible one for subjugating the South.
After this he was engaged, have heard,
bnt he never spoke of the matter himself,
on the military committee of Juarists, in
New York, and in writing for some Franco
American papers. In January, 1866, he
came over to Europe, commissioned by the
State Government of New York, TO- EXAM
world, and report on them for the benefits
of the American system. At any rate, he
visited several English arsenels and camps,
| among others WO0lwich and Adershot in
pursuance Of his mission I do not know
whether he ever cent the report but he
did not leave for America until compelled
to do SO in 1870 by the Imperial Govern
ment, which found an excuse for his expul-
sion in the fact that he had served in. n
foreign army while French subject. He
is very fluent speaker and writer-writes
French with great deal of elegance when
he likes to take trouble, which is very sell
dom. He generally composes as fast as he
can put pen to paper, and that is fast
enough, considering that he scarcely puts
down more letters of word than serve to
make it recognizable by persons accustomed
to his penmanship. HE is very clear
thinkers, of course, q free one-but be-
lieves in the immortality of the soul. He
has q fearfully violent temper. This be-
trayed itself very early in his career. when
yet a cOItegien he stabbed man who in
terfered with one of his love affairs, and
had to be on his keeping until it was found
out that the wound he had given was not
fatal"
This, then, was the man Pat had dele
gated to direct the instruction against the
British Crown-the blind attempt TO beat
down the rock of Gibraltar with bare fists.
Poor Pat, pity him, for there are noble
and endearing points in his character.
Clauseret was the last Communist saw.

dangerous one he, for noticed that the
man drank but beer or claret, never touched

FuneraI of MIR. Jnmes H. Cowan.

Athalf-past two o clock, Yesterday afternoon,
the tolling of the bell at the Second Presbyte-
rian Church announced that the last sad and
solemn rites were to be paid to one who had
often worshipped within its walls, and soon the
sacred building was filled with the stricken rel
alive; and friends of the deceased to pay The
final tribute to the mortal remains of him who
had gone in the evening of life from their midst.
Theremains were enclosed in a silver mounted
casket on which were laid wreath and cross OF
flowers and evergreens, and were taken from
the house and borne into tbelchurch and placed
in front of the pulpit, the following gentlemen
acting as pall-bearers
F. Il. McClung, D. A. Deaderick, J. G. Lut-
trell, Sr., s. 7. Atkin, Henry .Ault, G. M.
White Hu. L. McClung, r. N. McEwen, W.

burn and G. nj. Hazen.
The services were conducted by Rev. n.
Bachman, assisted by Rev. j. Howard Smith
and Rev. j. l., Lloyd. ~.st--s.-.-e
As the corpse was being brought into the
church, the requiem, Rest, spirit, rest was
played, and as its mournful cadence fell upon
the ear, the thought of the eminent fitness of the
selection presented itself to the minds of many.
Who so far as earthly knowledge or bellefavall,
were satisfied that the spirit of the deceased was
at rest.
The hymn commencing
Father, whate er of earthly bliss"
Was then sung, after which prayer was offered,
followed by the hymn,
How blest the righteous when he die"
The funeral discourse of Mr.. Bachman was
earnest, impressive and feelingy delivered.
The text used on this occasion was = Let me die
the death of the righteous and let my last end be
like his" The beauty of the text was most
graphically shown by illustrative scenes from
the death bed of Bunyan, Doddridge and others
of eminent piety and brief allusiOns to the last
illness of the deceased as showing his implicit
reliance in the Savior was made by the speaker.
He alluded ,to Mr.. Cowan's long connection
with the church and Sabbath school, where his
worth was best known. outside Of his own home
circle OF the former he had been one of the
pillars, and of the latter an answering advo-
cate and friend. -.f
at the conclusion of the funeral address
prayer was again offered, when the pail bearers
bore the body from the church, followed by the
family of the deceased, when the remains were
placed in the hearse and conveyed to Grey
Cemetery for interment, followed by q large
procession of kindred and friends who paid the
last rites to him they had loved and respected
while living. On arriving at the cemetery, the
beautiful hymn,
There is rest for the weary"
Was sung, and as the words of the hymn
I'm the Christians home in glory,
There remains land of rest,
My Savior has gone before me
To fulfill my SOULS request"
Died away on the air the scene was most solemn
and impressive. Prayer was then offered by
Rev. Messrs. Bachman and Smith, when the
body was lowered into the grave to remain un-
til the morning of the resurrection, when the
earth and sea shall give up their dead.

upon our oaths, are compelled to say, from the
testimony which we have taken, and from our
knowledge of the different parts of the country,
that the allegations contained in the proclama-

falsehood, communicated to him by persons
equally regardless of good order and the peace
of society,""

pressing influence on business and industrial
pursuits generally, and presume suoh will be the
case throughout the entire section of the State
embraced in the proclamation of the President.
Crops remain in the field unharvested, and on
account of the general feeling of insecurity,
business is nearly at stand still, while a large
number of persons have left the county rather
than incur the unpleasant and uncertain con-
sequences of arrest. The future of our section
is now more gloomy than it has ever been at
