Rev. Father Antonio de Fedella, passed along two by two, chanting the naiserere Slowly the procession wound round the rue St. Louis, and then proceeding in a long, unbroken line, entered the ceme tery where the coffin was deposited in the splendid marble vault Of the Pascal family, when the priests slowly chanted the "requiescdt.ia Qace," and the circled crowd recovering their heads, left the re. mains of Adele Pascal, the young, the beautiful, in their last resting-place.
 Born of wealthy parents, their cher ished idol, at the same time the darling and pride of her only brother, gratified in the indulgence of every wish, and perfected in every accomplishment, Adele Pascal shone the acknowledged belle of every social circle. One of those enthu- siastic beings who could never be satis fled with divided affection, sensitive and retiring in her nature, yet withal gay and spurtiye as child, ito see her was to love her"
 Such was Adele Pascal st the time her parents received letter from her broth CT Charles, then in New Haven, begging permission to invite his friend, Henry Selborne, to accompany him on his re- turn to Louisiana The permission Was willingly granted, and soon the two young men arrived at Sycamore Grove, a beautiful Summer residence of the Pas cal family on the banks of the Mississippi.

 In general Selborne's attentions to
 Adele were marked with frankness that would have prevented any less sus- ceplble than herself from thinking that
 he loved her, but she, poor girl ] thus
