The Paris correspondent Of the Philade1phia

1T appears that, for length OF time, q veilod
lady OF most elegant appearance has been seen
almost nightly to visit house situated in the
Champs Elysees her entire bearing indicated
caution, and even the most curious we're unable
to catch d glimpse Of her face or discover aught
respecting her. CRrioaity had reached tie
highest point, when, q few nights ago, hand
some, weu-drossed man, Of distinguished ap-
pearance, descended from q carriage, and sta
toned himself in an angle Of wall adjacent to
the house, and there, sheltered from view, si-
lently watched for the coming Of come one, who
proved in the end to be the lady in question,
But few minutes had elapsed when the illne-
trious fair one msde her appearance cautiously
entered the house. and shut the door quickly.
The husband, Tor such he WAS, rushed forward
and Tainly pounded and rang for adn1ittance,
but all Was IS quiet and as unresponsiye as the
grave, AZ length, growing impatent ne drew
q revolver and fred, at which q window. in the
lower story Vas opened, and two lackeys sprane
ont, pinloned his arms, and then beat him most
numerically and placed him in his carriage.
which, by his direction, conveyed him to bis
home. The deceived husband is no other than
the Count de Rieutain. and tho lover the Mar
quis de Courveau- The following day 8 chal-
lenge waa sent by the Count. The affair, how
ever, cu1minated in the flight Of the guilty pair.
Could you but see the young and beautifuI
Countess, you would 1onder at such climax.
But a very tew weeks ago she Was the raigniug

From the London I1nes.
The following anecdote OF the late distin-
guished tragedian las not hitherto been pub
fished: "At the time the atrocities Of Burke and
Hare had excited tho most intense horror
through tho width snd length Of the land, it may
be remembered the guilt Of Burke could only be
proved BY admitting Hare as evidence for the
Crown. After the execution Of Burke, Hare Was
liberated, and rumor stated that he had gone,
or WAS going, to his friends in Ireland. Just
at that time Nr. Macready had completed q
successful engagement at Glasgow, and en-
barked in the steamer for Belfast to delight
the inhabitants Of that wealthy city with q
DISPLAY Of his tragic powers. The passage
was, unfortunately. delayed by storm Of
the most violent nature, the wind blowing
hurricane and the dense darkness being
only broken by vivid flashes OF lightning. The
vessel was well nigh unmanageab1e, and all the
passengers had gone below for safety, Bsye one,
who, wrapped closely in u cloak, with 1olernn
footsteps pscel the deck, and ever and anon
muttered some incohcrent words to the warning
elements The attention and astonishment Of
the crew were excited, and at length, it WIS sug-
gestad that the mufled figure, whose proceed
ings we're so remarkable, was the escaped
murderer Hare, and that the fearful storm they
encountered was the Divine vengeance pursuing
the guilty wretch. Actuated By this feeling, they
determined to cast the wretched Jonas from the
vessel, and approached him tumnltuous1y for the
purpose, when the officers OF the watch came to
the rescue. Tho wrath OF the eailors however,
was not appeased till Mr. Macready told them
who he was, and displayed his theatrical dresses
as 8 proof OF his identity.

lin. science, invention, agriculture, the education
Of his nephews, and the love Of his daughters. a
life so exceptionally blamelcss did not give fair
scope to talent; since falsehood, to have its

Of d grain Of truth. Still, tho Champaign Liar
