A Pardon with an Addition.

AMONG the officers of the brilliant court
of the grand Monarch of France, Louis
XIV, was the Marquis Hugh de Verni-
court. This Marquis was of an ancient
family, very wealthy, and had proved
himself q brave and efficient Captain on
more than one hard fought field. In his
sober moments, though inclined to be
naughty and Overlooking, he could yet be
. gentleman; but when the fumes of the
wine cup had seized his brain, which was
far too often the case, he was turbulent
and quarrelsome, and his duels were nu-
merous, 80 that in time it came, to pass
that his companions feared and dreaded
him. Feeling secure in his lordly es-
tates, his high nobility exempting him
from certain penalties which might have
rested upon one Of lower degree, he pur-
sued his reckless and incbriate course for
time uuchecked. $50
At length, IN . hostile encounter. the
Marquis slew gentleman Of the Royal
Guard, whose friends made much COM
plant. De Vernicourt appeared before
the King, and pleaded in extenuation
that he was much heated ct the time. and
begged the royal pardon. The pardon
was granted, with the addition of So
we're reprimand, and caution for the flu.

ture. But the caution availed little.
Before long afterward The Troublesome
Marquis Quarreled with gentleman of the
Cardinals household. the result of which
was another fatal sword thrust.
Once more the nObleman was summoned
before the King, and his old excuse was
offered, and again he implorcd the royal
pardon.
Hugh de Vernicourt," said Louis,
thou art pardoned." = s Ma
The Marquis would have expressed his
thanks. but the King stopped him.
f" Hold, Sir Hugh. We wish not for
thy thanks; for know that thou art not the
only one to whom we have extended our
royal pardon. We have caused pardon
to be prepared in blank, and have placed
it in the hands of our trusty Minister
of Police. 1t is for the man who shall
kill thee!"
The caution proved sufficient to the end
desired.

and her daughter would be sure to return
at the close Of the summer. They saw this
plain enough now. I:
The march of improvement, in the
meantime, was mot stayed; the public To-
borers cleared the house of its valuables,
which were turned over to the public re-
cefver, and then commenced to tear down
the old stone mansion.
This was the work of not one, but many
days.
Gradually the structure, stone by stone,
floor by floor, disappeared, and was carted
from the spot.
The authorities had half forgotten the
crime which had SO long ago been COM
mitted within those walls, when one day,
as the workm en- came upon the f0unda-
ton walls, the proper officer was hastily
summoned to the epot. Another revela-
ton was in store for him.
Another skeleton was found!
It lay among the foundation stones, and
was that of a man, still clasping box in
his feshlcss arms, as though even in
death and the grave he would retain his
i'll. gottensbooty. The truth was plain at
a glance. This was all that remained of
the long ago robber and murderer!
1t will be remembered that we spoke of
false wall which had been erected to
screen the rear part of the old house; it
was between this and the main building
that the robbers skeleton was found. In
making his escape from the scene Of the
robbery and murder, by that lofty back
window. he had fallen between these walls
into living grave!
The box his skeleton arms still en-
braced contained rich jewclry, diamonds
and gold, to possess which he had MUIR
dered the three innocent occupants of the
stone house in the Pois de Boulogne; but
providential justice had been melted out
to him in the very hour of his awful
nmes!-Lieut. Murray, in american Cul-
