SUPERSTITIOUS CREDULITY.
A FACT.
A widow lately at Paria, aged about 63,
who lodged in a two pair ctf stairs fl*or, id
the Rue da la Fcrroniers, with only a iiMiid>
servant, was accuatomed to speo(tl*«nl
hours every day before the altsV d^^ted
to 8t. Paul, in a neighouring eSuTCh—
bono villians, observing her extreme bi»»
otrj, resolved as she was known to be rich,
to share her wealth. One of them accor*
dingly twjk the opportunity to conceal him
self behind the carved work of the altar,
and, when no person but the old lady was
there, in the dusk of the evening he coa-
trived to throw a letter just before her.
She took it up, and not perceiving any oae
near, suppos^ it. came by a miracle. la
thi.s she was the more confirmed when she
saw it signed Paul the Apostle, expressing
the satisfaction be receiv^ by her prayers
addressed to him, when so many newly
canonizod saints engrossed the devotion of
the world, and robbi^ ths primitive saints
of the wonted adoration: and to show hUi
regard for the devotee, he promised to coma
from Heaven, with the angel Gabriel, anil
sup with her at eight in the evening. It
seems scarcely credible that any one could
bo deceived by so gross a fraud; yet to
what length of cr^ulity will not super*
stition carry a weak mind! Ths infatuat*
ed lady believed the whole ; and rose from
bar kuees in transport, to prepare an enter*
tainment for her heavenly guests.
The supper being bespoke and the side*
board set out to the best advantage, she
thought that her own plate, worth about
/400, did not make so elegant an appear
ance as might be wished, and therefore sent
to her brother, a Counsellor, in the Parlia*
ment of Paris, to borrow all his plate. The
maid, however, was charged not todiscloso
the occasion, but only to say that she had
company to supper, and would be obliged
to him if he would lend his plate for tnat
evening. The Counsellor surprised at th«
application, well knowing hts sister's frugal
life, began to suspect that she was enamour*
ed of s»jme fnrlune hunter, who might mar
ry her, and thus deprive his family of what
he expected at his sister’s death. He there
for© positively refused to send the plate,
unless the maid would tell him what guesta
were expected. The girl, alarmed for her

lady had no thoughts of a husband, bot St.
Paul having sent her a letter from heaven,
promising that he and the angel Gabriel
would sup with her, she wanted to make
the entertainment as elegant as possible.
The Counsellor immediately suspected
that some villians had imposed on her; and
sending the maid with the plate, proceeded
directly lo the commissary of that quarter.
—On the magistrate’s going with him to a
house adjoioing, they saw just betbre eight
o’clock, a tall man dressed in long vest
ments with a white beard, and a youn^
man in white with large wings at his shoul
ders, alight from a hackney coach, and go
up to his sister’s apartments.
The commissiary immediately ordered
twelve of the policc guards to post them
selves on the stairs, while he knocked at
the d»>or and desired admittance. The la
dy replied that she had company and could
not speak to any one. But the commissary
. ., answered that he must come in, for that ho
3n, always in a hurry, yet I St. Peter, and had come te ask St.
opportunities of bettering | h„^ ,hey catiHr
out of heaven w ithout his knowledge. The
“divine” visitors were astonished at this,
not expecting any more saints to join them;
but the lady overjoyed at having so great
an apostle w ith her, ran eargerly to the
door, when the commissary, her brother,
and the police guards rushed in, presented
their muskets, seized her guests, and con
ducted tliein to prison.
On searching the criminals, two cords,
a mzor,and a pistol, were found in St. Paul's
pocket, and that a gag in that of the ongel
tJabriel. Three davs after the trial camo
on; when they pleaded in their defence,
that one was a soldier in the French ininnt-
! ry, and the other n barber’s apprentice—
that they had no other design than to pro-
cure a good supper at the widow’s expense
that it being carnival time, they had bor-
rowed these dresses, and the soldier having
pickrd up the cords, put them into his pock
et that the razor was that with which ho
had constantly shaved himself—that tho
pistol was to defend them fro.n any insult.?,
to which their strange habits might expos#
them in going home—and that ths appren
tice, w hose master wx.s tooth drawer, mere-
ly had the gag, which they sometimes use
in their business. These excuses, frivolous
as they were, proved of some avail; and as
they had manifested no evil design by aa
overt act, they were both acquitted.
But the ceunsellor who foreww what
might happen through the defect o( evidence,
had prepared another stroke for them. No
sooner, thor^forp, were tht*y discharpca
from the civil power, than the apporitor ot
the archbishop of Paris immediately seized
them and coiiTeyed them to the ecclesias
tical prison. In three days more they were
tried and convictcd of a most .«caii.lalous
profanation by assuming to theiiis* lves the
uatncs, charactcrs, and appearaoccs ol a
