'"" " 0""S extraorainary the rea- :der - He Sayshe was bom With a StronS , so"rcl of cpthusiarn, and I was ardently devoted from his ear- liest youth, to sacred books, so that I ai one urne ne seriously entertained the thoughts of entering into holy orders. But an unexpected occur- i cnuc uissipaiea mis intention, ihel reading of the Bible had nearly I intiuc mm a rnest, and the music I of a French regiment, which was marching under his window, made him a soldier. He entered the French army, and, having distin guished himself, he was made an officer. It was in this aualitv that he found himself under the nrderJ of General Pino, and not. as Ire as- sures us, in quality of a courier which has been so wickedly affirm td. He explains, afterwards, how it happened that he was mistaken for a courier. -j " While he was in the serTice, an apparently insignificant occurrence took place, which powerfully influ-l cutcu uis iuiure aestiny. tie was I 1 -w present at a marriage, which was spendidly celebrated at the house of the Countess C- , whose daugh ter was about to be married. A renowned gipsy fortune-teller was called in to calculate the young la-J dy's nativity. A mysterious grot to, similar to that of the Sybil of the Eneid, was prepared for the pur pose. This contrivance, joined to the reputation of the Sybil, inflam ed the imagination of Bergami, and the. fortune-teller found him disnks. ed to listen to her with the most en- tire confidence, when she came to announce to him that he would humble himself to be exalted, and that a great Princess, to ..whom he would render great services, would one daymake his fortune.Stfuqk with this oracle, Bergami, to begin to humble himself, quilted the service, and secluded himself in a cottage, which certainly was not in the way to meet the Princess announced to him by the gipsy prophetess. The idea probably soon occurred to him, for hf left his cot to repair to Turin. He 1 ' 1 learned that a Princess of! Napoleon's family had just arrived there, and he. was anxious to know whether it was she who was to change his fate. On passing in front of the theatre, he. saw a great crowd assembled. The Princess had gone in. He entered, palpi tating with fear and hope ; but the countenance of the Princess pro duced no effect upon him, and he produced still less upon the Prin cess, who did not appear to have perceived him. Hence he conclu ded that this was not the recontre that destiny had in store for him, and he quitted Turin. It was some time afterwards that heheard speak of the Princess. of Wales, of whose virtues and benevolence all the world boasted. A voice within whisper ed that it must be she whom the or- aclc had announced to mm, ana ne ieit an irresisiiuic ucam, wj cmti into her service. Unfortunately the household of the Princess was com plete, and she only wanted a courier. Bergami hesitated to oflfer himself in this capacity; bur, recollecting the words of the fortune teller Thou wilt humble thyself to be ex alted he thought that the mo ment to humble himself was come, and the hand which but lately had wielded the sword, no longer hesi tated to handle the post-whip. ' Bergami, thus disguiseclas a courier to serve a Princess some what resembled the henM of a ro- mance. In a short time nothing wa3 wanting to render the fidelity of BARON BERGAMI. the portrait complete, for he had the happiness twice to save the life ot" the Pnncess on the route to XVaples. His modesty does not allow him to enter into any deuU of his duplicate 5, sp Vonly of , the B"fcc ox me rnncess. ahivcu raS of the bed-chamber, who app ars to Ih ,Mrtn him rk!!1Ejuj him into a tete-a-tete ; but Bercrami t: : " IT ... "T:;. .u" was firm, and withdrew from this trial like a chaste Joseph. The en raged lady sought revenge ; and having heard of the costume which the Princess intended to wear at a masked ball, she put on the same siou,-. passiug ucisii -tu, ii her august mistress, she was but too successful in her contrivance. wohuw Bergami developer the commence- lucul' Vl jctiuuc, auu mc ousir cions which hovered over, ' him. His sister, and his daughter Victo rine, soon partook of the Princess's kindness, and followed her in her travels, in which Bertram! gives a succinct itinerary. He explains, ,but without details, the various circunw stances adduced by the jwitnesses for the prosecution on the Queen's trial. He also mentions some par ticulars, such - as the attachment which little Victorine conceived for an ass (which was purchased for her to travel in the desart) to such a decree; that she would not be sep- arated from it. and the animal wasj in consequence, embarked, and it af terwards followed to the court of the --f Princess. We learn that! the Prin- ..S':n cess and Bergami, each adorded (se 1 coffaient) their heads with the halves " " of a mellon, 'as a .resource against the piercing sun-beams, and that the cook, who neglected this precau tion, became an ideot. On that very Bergami weariedat finding the? dinner was not forthcoming, went to hasten it, and found the cook dancing on the sand, making a turns lIie OI n".P"t ana exclaiming that r,ws one, ot.t?le f01?14 of Rlch ,-aru vtrur uc jiuu . ! j " Bergami speaks of the Queen'a trial with very laudable circumspec tion. He shows himself penetra ted with a gratitude towards her, which appears very natural Ho thinks that what he has said will suffice to excite the curiosity ot the public, and the sale jot his 4 Me moire' will probably prove to him that he is not mistaken " u He announces that! he waits tho issue of the trial of tfe Queen to speak more openly, and name the personages whom he qtily indicates. We may, therefore, lo ifc for a sec ond part, which will not be less cu rious than the first. We entreat him, however, to remember, in this second part, that he owes his celeb rity only to the part which he plays in a too famous trial ; that the public are much more interested in what ever relates to that trial: than in what merely relates to himself personal- f i " j ; .- ij " t. ly ; ana tnat consequent , ne ougnt to speak of himself only so far as what he may have to say is con nected with that great affair which makes him an important person- age."
