some OF the sights Of the city, and
D'Orley was sometimes at her side, but
he had accepted Government appoint
ment and was generally occupied during
the day with his duties. This was not
displeasing TO Rodney Yates, who had
learned to despise D'Orley most thor
oughly.
It was aboat the 9th of July that
Mr.. Talbot received hurt from falling
down tho stairway OF a hotel. Had It
not been for this mishap, he would have
taken his daughter to some of the
neighboring retreats about Paris. AS
it was, he was compelled to remain.
D'Orley made his appearance the
very day Mr.. Talbot received his IN
Jury, and very inopportunely offered
himself to Kate, and was promptly re-
iected.
The willy Frenchman being pursuad-
ed that the cause Of the King was
going to fail, wished to provide for the
future, and saw no better way of doing
SO than masrTing Miss Talbot.
D'Orley had no sooner left Kate's
presence than ssle saw General Marmont,
who commanded Paris, riding 1T full
speed along the street, attended by q
| few dragoUHs, while crowds of angry
men and noisy women followed him
with resenffui eyes. Directly after
| ward Yates came In and said they were
erecting barbados ut the Rue st. Hon
ore, and shots had already been fired.
Mr.. Talbot insisted on being wheeled
near the window, that he might witness
the tumnlt. He had badly sprained
ankle, but he thought little of the pain
when such exciting scenes were passing
| under ms view.
s'There goes the tri-cooler on the
Hotel de VILE" shouted Yates; and
sure enough, there it was flying defiant
ly in the breeze. Kate was nervous
with excitement. Crowds of citizens
! laughing, shouting and singing the
Marseillaise, were constantly passing
the street. D'Orley was in the Garden
of the Tulleries, to fight for the King,
or his bread ant soup, which was the
same thing.
The following day the Faubourg Of
st. Antoine poured forth it's hordes, and
the bloody work commenced which
ended in the King fleeing to England.
Monsieur D'OTley followed the royal
train.
Six months later and Mr.. Talbot, Kate
and Yates, having satisfied their curios-
ity by visiting the usual resorts on the
continent, came to London to embark
for home. Rodney Yates was now ex-
tremely happy, having been accepted
by Miss Talbot, tha marriage to take
place soon after their arrival in the
United States
They were one day riding in Hyde
Park, when Kate pulled him quickly
by the sleeve and desired him to look
another Why. There was poor D'Orley
peddling some French pamphlets, and
looking very seedy and distressed.
Unfortunate man." sighed Kate;
sfwhat car We dc for him?"
"Send ham some money, suppose, !"
replied Tases. .s' He will find that
more acceptable than any boon you can
bestow, excsps it be yeur hand and
fortune" and he laughed
"For shame," said Miss Talbot;
have you ne pity"
"Iu show yea," replied Yates, and
he stopped the carnage, telling Kate he
would soon joia her. Hurrying back
he found D'Oraey, who received him
with q ahxug of the shoulders
"' tbs only the turn Of fortune,'" ex-
claimed Yates, as he attempted to en-
courage the poor fellow. Here, take
this, it may tighten your load of care, :"
and slipped roll OF bills in his hand.
D'Orley received the gift with pro-
fDund SENSE r4 prafit17da and a holt
dozen srimacas, and they saw him no
more. Nsst year later Ma. Talbot re-
ceived letter from the polite royalist,
stating Hiatt he was once. more in be-
loved Paris, ana under the new Kings
patronage, and would be happy to well
come his friends should they ever again
visit PARIS,
Rodney and Kate wezs- married, and
too comfortably settled to think of
crossing the ocean, again.. and never had
the pleasure of meeting Mons. D'Orley
reinstassaa In all his glory.
