But their eyes joks were replete with nature's own loquence. he meantime Mr. Auvrey made hii ance, and stretching forth his arms to the young man, exclaimed. Ah ! Ah ou are at last !

You wronw me. I did love youi I have loved y6.u ; I do love you. and I will love you with all the fervor of a woman's love, but for God's sake tell me what is the matter ? interrupted Lucilia astonished and affected to tears by this im passioned effusion of his wounded, distracted ! Oh! Lucilia pardon me, if, from the pres ent excited statc.of my feeliuo-s, I have of fended youbut Sure your hand is plighted to another ! Great Ood ! And are thus my presenti ments realized ! What do you mean Lucilia? Yes, continued the young girl,! methinks I heard this marriage spoken of. but! I consid ered it only talk. So far was I from think ing my father would ever consent to dispose of my hand without first consulting me. Then you, know my rival. j I have seen him once or twice' only, at Bourdeaux, when he was introduced to us by a friend. i I j His name ? Emilius Leblay. His profession T ; A physician. His residence ? Here in town 1 , ! ( Ah ! nowj I understand the object of your father's voyage; but be assured taiciiia, this marriage will never take place. . Oh ! My Qoc ! what are you going to do? : ' . ' ' ' 1 Ie no: afraid ; my resolve is fixed. ayi ng this, he rushed out ; but once in the street he stopped, for, in trjth. he did not know what to do. However, his excite ment having gradually subsided he was able to view his position under all its aspects ; it was by no I means a very enviable one. jln vaia did he incline his head in pon'dering thought; in yajn did he appeal to his imagi nation and invoke his genius; he 'did not know how to get rid of his rival. There was but one way, and this was to kill him ; but in France an enemy has always the right of sejf defence; however in the absence of a more convenient and suitable mode, he was obliged to adopt the only one' left. He there fore immediately proceeded to the residence of Mr. Leblay. Mr. Emilius Leblay was a tal spare, dry locking young man ; but it was very easy to seeby a certain expression diffused through his countenance, that his emaciated appear ance was not the result of either intellectual or physical labor. He studied medicine, like many others, merely to gratify the wishes of his parents.; At the time Victor entered, the young doctor, enveloped in a Iqose gown, ef feminately4stretched upon a sofa.was inhaling with apparent delight the odor of a steaming pipe, which together with the spiral coils of a part of its long stem wasrestirig on the mantle piece.j Sir, said Victor, abruptly opening the dis cussion ; the business tnat brings 'me here be ing of a very serious nature, I shall take the liberty of dispensing with preliminaries. Vou are going, I understand, to marry Miss Auvray ? I Yes sir. II And when will that marriage take place ? At this bold and rather impertinent ques tion the doctor was silent a rcoment,jkvhile he fixed on his interrogator a very searching look; but immediately repelling the first idea he answered : , Sir, this marriage will probably take place next week. ' i No sir, thfc marriage will never be: At these words Emilius hastily! j throwing the pipe aside, and screwing himself up to his fdll height, asked what is thatiyou said sir? ' I shy, answered Victor, looking determin edly, that I also have pretentions to Miss Au- vray's hand, and will never suffer another to obtain it. ' " i It's a1 duel you have come to propose ? Sir, one of us must die. The doctor then having set down, resumed, indeed sir, I shquld be justified in relusing you; circumstances being unequal, having more to lose than vou: but, nevertheless. I accept your dhadlenge.- "VVhen shall we meet ? I , An hour hence. ' Where ? - r In Vincenne wqod. And what kind of weapons 1 i Any kjnd you please, but I think! the pia- tol preferable The pistol be it so. As to the seconds, resumed Victor, you will oblige me by lending me one of yours, as I am not acquainted with anyone here whom I would ask. The 'doctor, without appear, ing the least affected, takes up his pipe and having bowed -by way of assent, began to smoke. ' Mr. de Corvelles merely said good bye. and went out. Oniis way home he perceived he had ac ted foolishly; tho' he should attain-the hap piness of killing his rival, Mr. Auvray doubtless would never consent to give his daughter to Ji bully j but his honor beurtj now involved he could not decline; Victor therefore hurried on to prepare for the ap proaching combat. 9 Julien, my pistols, demanded Mr. de Cor velles of his servant, as be entered' nis dwef line. Julien started out and returned imme diately with a magnificent box. which he placed on a table. At the sight of hi3 arms, Victor's counte nance brightened up, arid looked unspeakably proud ; there is thus a number of persons who though they lack t'ne necessaries and comforts of life, are still always abundantly supplied with'the! means of their own destruc tion. T.he young man took the pistols, one by one, and carefully examined them. This ex amination in the meantime, suggested very gloomy thoughts to Victor's mind, poon his agitation became so violent that he was obli ged to raise the window to expose his burning temples to the cooling and refreshing influ ences of the exterior air. At that moment the door opened, and Mr. Benn apf eared on the threshold! ' JUNIUS. To be Continued. ARRIVAL OF THE STEAMER CANADA. SEVEN DATS LATER FROM EUROPE. . Halifax, March 30. The steamer Canada arrived here at 7 o'clock this morning, bringing Liverpool dates of the 20th instant, G3 passengers.,and $15, 000' in specie. Stie bailed for Boston at nine o'clock this morning. , The Cambria arrived at Liverpool at noon on the 16tli,' arid the Baltic at A. M. on the 19th. having encounterd heavy easterly gales. ENGLAND. Nothing of special interest transpired in England. In Parliament, oh the 15th inst.. Lord Derby intimated that he slieuld leave the question of free trade to be settled at the polls. He implored their Lordships to modi fy the present system, declaring his determi nation to perform hjs own duty unflinchingly. .Mr. D'lsraeli denounced the determination of the governnfent to prosecute its measures, namely the disfranchisement of St. Albans, the Chancery Reform -and the Militia bill. Lord Darby promised to appoint a com mittee of investigation .on the doings of the Education Board,1 with a view of mitigating the opposition of the cjergy. 1 ' Mr. Napier, the new Attorney General of Ireland, moved for a committee to inquire into the Ribbon system. On Friday night. Lord Derby, in the House of Lords,, and De Israeli, in the House of Commons, announced the' inten tion of the Ministry to dissolve Parliament as soon as the miitia bill and other necessa ry measures had passed. The Protectionists and Free Traders w?e? consequently active ly preparing for the new campaign. , . Owing to the adroit management of the Parliamentary Committee of the Catholic Defence Association, it was anticipated that three-fifths of the Irish counties, ;a: the ap proaching elections would be controlled by the priests. FRANCE. France, as usuil, is reported all quiet, and less excited than heretofore. ' ' M. Carnot,' the opposition candidate in the fourth conscription of Paris, has been elected. The President has issued a decree author izing the Minister of Finance to effect a connexion of the five per cents into new rents of 4 per dEnts. ' The weekly returns of the Bank of France have been discontinued. The government has placed on the retired list a large number of officers, of various ranks. The Bishop of Orleans has declined to ac cept a seat in the Supreme Council of Pub lic Instruction. ''- Napoleon's civil list amounts to 800,000 frcs. independent of expense of maintaiii' ing the royal establishment.- SPAIN. The Spanish government fs about to rein force the garrisons of Cuba and Porto Rico with 4,000 additional troops. Gen. Curedo, the 'new Governor of Cuba, was to sail from Cadiz on the 20th inst. The causes of Coacha's dismissal have not been made public. Lord Derby's accession to the English Premiership has given great satisfaction. AUSTRIA. The Austrian government has resolved to abstain from reprisals, on English travellers which had been previously threatened. INDIA AND CAINA. The overland India mails have arrived. The Persians had invaded Herat, and were likely to prove successful. The war continues to progress with great activity in the South of China. Seventeen American whalers were in the hatbo of Hong Kong The fishing season had been very unprofitable. The Chinese emigration to California is rapidly increasing. Large numbers are shirting to settle in that country. J Sydney advices had been received to De cember lSih. Provisions were very dear but not scarce. The place was nearly deserted by the men, who had all gone to the gold diggings. - ' A MANNERLY YOUTH. Last week the Swampscot Dorcas Sew inir Society, held their annual meeting, and omotion, it was voted. iT.hat our pajsonj wait on Tony Jones' and see if nothing canT be done to correct the manners of young To ny.' : . -.!',-' The next day the parson called on Tony, sr., und informed hint respecting the object df his visit. Tony Irstehed patiently while the parson rehearsed the object of .his visit, to which . Tony replied : ' 'Parson. Pd let Tony'ga to meetin' every Sunday, if I only know'd you's going to to preach; but. parson, there ain't a boy in the city of Swampscot that's got more man ners than ray boy Tony, and I can convince you of that in just a minit. You see Tony out there skinning them niffers?' The parson nodded assent. .;f Now you see, I II call him,' and raising his 'voice to the highest pitch, he shouted, 'Tony.' The response was as quick, and equally loud, . 'Sir.' ; : Do you hear that parson?' said the grat ified father. Don't you call that manners?' 'That is all very well,' replied the parson, 'as far as it goes.' 'What do yon mean by 'as far as it goes.' That boy, sir, always speaks respectfully to me when I call him.' . And raising his voice, he again called, 'Tony.' 'Sir.5 Was responded, in a tone equally loud and prompt. 1 Again the old man called, 'Tony.' ' ' ! The boy dropt a half-dreseed fish, and sha king his' fist at his sire, yelled out, 'You miserable, black, old drunken snob, Til come there in just two minutes and maul you like blazes !' The parson was astounded. The old man was disconcerted for the moment but instantr ly recovering himself he tapped the parson on the shoulder, saying 'You see. parson, my boy has got good gnt as , well as "rnantiers. That chap will make an ofhament to your society one o'theee days.' TOQ TRUE TO BE GOOD. A gentleman called some time ago to consult a phj'sician of our city with regard to a rheu matism, which caused him much pain. The doctor immediate sat down and wrote him a prescription; as the patient was going away the doctor called back 'By-lhe-way sir. should my prescription happen to afford you any relief, please let me know, as I am myself suffering from an affection similar to yours and for. the last twentv years have tried in vain n cure it.' A perriwig maker,to the town of Lewes. had a sign painted in front of his shop, represent ing the rebellious son of David hangiyg in the oak, by the hair of the head, with this whimsical couplet below "Oh I Absalom ! unhappy sprig ! Thou shoaldst have worn a perriwig." ARISTOCRACY OF APPETITE. We never' had an idea until recently of an arristocracy of appetite. We overheard in the market the following brief dialogue between an old lady and a little girl, while they were standing in front of a vegetable stand : : ' - ' Grandmother," said the little gi.il, ':buy some of these cucumbers." ; 'No, my child," replied the lady, "Why not?" asked the little girl. 'Because I should hate'to be seen curry ing them home, when everybody knows they are only a cent a piece ?" Said a patient to his physician, about five years ago, aft ur reading over the prescription of a distinguished friend of temperance, whom Wlness had obliged hini to consult: "Doctor, do;you think that a little spirits now and then would hurt ntfe very much ?" ""Why, no, sir,.'.' answered the doctor, de liberately. "It!o"not know thai a little now and then would hurt you very much ; but sir, if you don't take any, it won't hurt you at all."
