a Partisan Tragedy.

A crime OF that sort winch Edgar Poe knew
50 well how TO weave into Q tale of thrilling
horror was committed q few nights age on the
banks of the Seine, opposite the Quai Voltaire.
The Independence Beige relates that patrolman
Oh duty At this point deserted a man on his
knees apparently excavating a hole OF the foot
of a neighbOring wall. He accosted him At the
moment when he had apparently COMPLETED his
task and demanded his business there. The
man turned deadly pale, stsmmered out some
unintelligible words and suddenly rushed of.
The policeman, presently joined by q comrade
whom he met, started in pursuit, succeeded
in grasping the fugitive, and led him back
TO the SPOT where he had been at work.
The man evinced the most terrible agitation,
and all the more so when the guardians
OF the night" having scooped away the
mould with their sabres, brought TO light the
bleeding head OF q new born child Having
wrapped II in a handkerchief they started Tor
TIE police Office, but on the way thither their
prisoner escaped and managed to throw himself
into the Seine. Unable to swim they halloed TO
some bcatmen, who presently brought the mans
body to land, but life was quite extinct. There
was absolutely nothing on the corpse to lead to
Identification. The whole scene, the moonlit
river, the LOrTid discovery, the men digging
with their sabTes whilst the ag0niZed culpn
stood by, the flight, the recovery OF the corpse
is worthy OF a place amongst HawthOrne's
"Studies Tor Stories" or in the records of De
Quincey's famous society.
