A Strange Refuge.

n Orange nCl uSCE
After the Revocation of the Edict of
Nantes OF the year 1855, the Huguenots
being required to renounce the Protest
ant religion or to run the risk of passing
the rest of their lives as galley-slaves,
began to escape from France to other
less intolerable lands. Among the many
hgitives were the young daughters of
one Monsieur Raboteau. They, indeed,
had not been threatened with the gal
Ieys, but they equally objected to the
choice offered to them-either of instant
ly accepting for their husbands two Ro-
man Catholic gentlemen selected for
them by the State, or of retiring into a
convent. In their perplexity they ap-
piled to an uncle, who had long before
settled as a W1ne-merchant in Dublin,
carrying on brisk trade with the French
wine-growers, and now and then sailing
in his own ship to Rochelle, where, in
happier times, he had cultivated the &C
quaintance of his French relatives.
With the best will to assist his nieces,
Mr.. John Charles Raboteau had much
difficulty in so doing, owing to the efforts
of the Government to prevent the emmi-
grafton of the unfortunate Huguenots.
1t was possible to procure horses for
the young ladies, on which they were
conveyed by night to a house in
Rochelle, where lodgings had been al
read y secured for them, but how to get
them secretly conveyed from that house
to the workmanship tossing outside the
town was the difficulty.
1t was solved, however, at length.
Mr.. RabOteau was in the habit of carry
ing with him to Ireland some large
casks of French apples, as a part of his
cargo, and in two of these casks his
Young nieces were conveyed on board in
the terrible winter following the Revoca-
ton, Despite anxietieS and terrors, the
girls reached Dublin in safety, finally
settling and marrying there, and their
descendants still live to tell the tale

to putting sewer down the former

It was thought, at one time, that IL
