But ne tion can jMiaiUrl m m been the curse of ther truth or fic- ani)css the act of the hero whose achievements are related below We copy frond the New York Post of the 22.1 inst : A wealthy gernlenia i, whom we shall call Mr. A had a young and lovely daughter, an only child, just turned six teen, upon whom his tbudest hopes and warmesl affections wee centered, as the companion and solace! of his widowed lifo. Circumstances Heuttirini? his fre- qu;nt absence from the city, he had per mitted his daughter tojjpass her weekly vacations froru school jwhh friends here, -whom we shall call Jlr. and Mrs. B., who resided op-towr in one of our fashionable neighborhoods. The young lady became acquainted accidentally, with a young man, whom we shall call M. C, Who also resided in this city. ... I The beauty and fascination of Miss A. captivated him, aujd Mr. O. became a frequuent visitor at he house where she passed her vacations so frequent hat Mr. B. fell it his duty to apprise Mr. A.of the circumiftances, lest any resjjousibility of the coy frequences might rest upon him or hisfaknlly, ' " Mr. A. immediately j hastened ta the city, aud seeking an ttfterview wkh the young man, forbade ajjiy 'further atten tions to hix daughter, fvhich, after some hesiration, Mr. C. protnised to observe upon the receipt of orie thousand dol lars. The sum was promptly paid him. and for a few weeks the matter was ap parently disposed of. ed at the house of he all appearances, had Miss A. remain friends, and, lo jforeotteu Mr. C- as well as the little episode which had occurred in her youthful history. Judge ot the surprise of her friends on her in forming them, one fine morning, that she had been martiedj three days pre viously, and that Mr. C. vas hr hus fca nil ! . . f : i . . -t. The ceremony had len perforriieii at the residence of a fashionable rlnrgyr man, and she had returned directly to the. house of her lriepls, nw having in"e seen her husbaAd. Mr. A, who was absent at the South, was ittimedi iitely telegraphed to rfepair to this -ity, and his .anguish ou being informed of what hail occurred may be imagined , An interview wtththe young -tiian satisfied him that it was useless to ap peal to his heart or his bead, and he, therefore, -ppafed tO;this pocket, de tnandiwg how much money would iu- duce him to sien a release ot his mar tial I rights and relinquish for ever al claims to the voune ladv. The hus band was disinclined 10 name a sum, and very coolly asked the agonized father how much it would be worth to him to have his daughter back again. Pnn r thousand dollars," exclaimed Mr.lA- ' I wiil cheerfully give you which, with one thousand already paid. makes five thousand dollars, to which you are welcome, if you will now re store me mv child n The husband as. sented. The three drove at once to a lawyer's office, where it tyas found that it would reauire some hours jo prepare the-pa pers, and it was agreed hat the three should meet at f oetocK me next morning, at the safv, office,. to .-lign the documents, the moneymcan while, be ing paid to Mr. C, and his word ot tion or given to execute the release. At nine o clock the next , morning, Mr. C. drove to the door fif Mr. in- auired for Mr A. and demanded his wife ! She. hearing ot his being there entered the room : and in the face of the violated agreement, the payment of the heavy forfeit, the agony ot her des olate father, and the warning of her friends, went away with her husband. THE WAY OF THE WORLD. We are indebted to the Home Jour nal for the following free translation of a suggestive passage from " JLes Fem- mes,n a recently published work of Al phonse Karr. It contains a world of wisdom, if the reader's philosophy can but find it out : " I called the other day upon a prct ty woman, whom I found in a stale ot melancholy. ' 1 tcl quite sad,' she saia; I had been reading some fairy tales yesterday, and I dreamt, all last night, of those delightful eodmothers who overwhelm you with precious gilts such as Prince Lutin's cap of roses, which made him invisible Prino Loulotrs rmg, which made him so charming that no woman could resist him : and 1 a- woke quite discouraged lo find myself ionce more fallen into the prose of actu al hie" 1 see, was my reply, you have not your eyes 'sufficiently about you. The prodigies you speak of are constantly heing reproduced in our own time. You have only to tell the people whicorne lo see you ihat you are niece, 'cousin-, or ' god-daughter to a man in high office, and yon will soou see how much beauty and wit the discovery will add to the slock of those gifts you al ready possess ; you vcill see how much admiration and flattery will be lavished upon you.. sAud, like the girls in the fairy tales, you will have no occasion to be really the god-daughter ; to say that you are, will be sufficient. 1 know a man who is a brute and a clown by birth and education clumsily made, and as great a fool as it is possible to be. Well, when this lei low puts on his fin ger a certain ring, decorated with a large pcnhle, of the species they call Jiamond, he becomes witty, well-bred, handsome, and an amusing companion ; at least people regard him as such Whenever I wish to make myself invisible, I have a certain old hat, rusty and napless, which I put on as Prun e Latin jKit on his cap of roses. To this 1 add a cer tain seedy paletot. ' Lo! and behold! I become immediately invisible. Not a being in the town sees, recognizes or sjieaks to me,' A PLAIN FUN EK AL OF A WEALTHT MAN The funentl of Roswell L. Colt, Esq , a on in-law of the late Robert Oliver, of Bal timore, took place al Patterson, N. J., bis place of residence, on the 25th November, and is said to have been unusually impos ing from its simplicity and solemnity. Tbe Newark Advertiser says: He had directed by an endorsement on xhe outside of bis will in his own bund writing that bis funeral should take place early in the morning, and in the plainest manner. It took place at half-past 8 o' clock in the morning, and without any in vitations, except to the immediate relatives. Nothing was known except the time u would take place. He further directed that nothing should be said by way of eu. ogy of his character or history, but sira ply advice girea as coming from him to ail present to secure an interest in Jesus, the Saviour of the world, aad to prepare for tbe solemn event of death and a - future state. This was referred to by Rev. Mr Hornblower, and an exhortation made of the most eloquent and affecting character. After this a prayer was mail, and the bene diction pronounced. The attendance was very large ; the number at the bouse, on the grounds, and in wailing to see the pro cession at the entrance of the place, tnny be fairly estimated at 2,000 persons. His body was placed in a hearse drawn by hia own horses and drive by his own coach man There were eih carriers, who w-re dressed in bUrk, but no pall-bearers; nor was there nv other v-hicle present but the h-trse Tti lonsr. jodenm proc-s-eioii moving unostentatiously ntonr in the tilli,ss 'd the morning, wthuot a wor' Kpoken up.! -free from the clatter ff-ih hordes hoos,'nr th roll ufcnrriHire. gv in lmpre in Uie scene tbni wi4 b remember-.

The name Pti-iUrat has been so frexuently mentioned recently in conec lion with possible events in Naples that a hri f gl.ince at the history of his fam ily will he found highly interesting. It is alleged in some quarters that the Muratists const ituti a considerable parly in the Neajolitan dominions; while in others the existence of any such party is unreservedly denied. It is also al teged that Louis Napoleon clandestine ly lavors the pretensions of his cousin uuf whatever may be the value ot al the statements put forth iu the, public journals, we have not yet learned that the Prince who is surrounded by . some distinguished enemies of the Bourbons of Naples, is truly indifferent to, the pro gress of events in ,the Italian peninsula, although his claims totrrecroAi of the Two Sicilies are certainly anything but legitimate. The life of his father, Joachim Murat of Naples, is one of the most extraordi nary in modern limes, presenting a sue cession of those signal vicissitudes which occur only to the experience of few men, conspiciously illustrating the. danger which ever attends unscrupulous ambi tion, as well as the instability of the grandeur and greatness which some times invest the path of the successful adventurer. The son of a publican of La Batiside, Joachim Murat in early life assisted his father's business, which he was destined to follow, having evinced no desire for intellectual study, or for mechanical pursuits. As he grew ol der, he became so careless as to be ut terly incapable of attending to the busi ness, or even of grooming his father's horses. His dissipations did great in jury to the establishment, and ultimate ly he parted with his father. A roving disposition impelled him di rectly towards Fans, where he earued a livelihood tor some time as a valet du place, and as a waiter to a rest aura teur. The employment was irksome to one with a passion for romantic ad venture; and, entering the army, he commenced a career in which he tiltt mately won a crown and the fame of being one of the greatest cavalry, gene rals who ever lived. JJis fortunes were intimately associated with those of Na? poleorffrom the opening of the campaign in Italy in 179G, until the battle of Leip- sic, while thn relationship was materia.! ly strengthened by a marriage with the sister of the Emterior. In command of the cava ry he pet formed bold and glo rious lea Is at Marengo; in pursuit of the Austriaiis from Ulin: at Austerhtz. Jena. Eyiatiand Fiiedlaud. He accompanied Napoleon in the disastrous expedition to Moscow, conducting the retreat from duiorgoui. Joachim, like his master, did not enjoy li-iigiheneii tenure ot sovereign au- thoiity. He was proclaimed King of the Two Sicilies in 1808. on Napoleon tiaiisierring" nis orotner Joseph to Mad t id. Joachim was not endowed with many noble qualities, but by great display and apparent frankness of man tiers, he for some time enjoyed the good feeling of the people. He, however. subsequently betrayed the weakness of his character: while the fortunes ol Napoleon were on the wane, Joachim, looking to the safety of his throne, vol unteered to join the alliance against him; negotiations were opened with Austria and Lngiand, and conducted with treachery on all sides; and it is needless to say ihat they did not result the advantage of the wavering mon arch. The news of Waterloo reduced him to temporary despair; but, in an en I moment, he resolved upon one more attempt to recover his kingdom. The fate ot the ill-starred expedition from Corsica is memorable. A gale of wind scattered the vessels, containing only two hundred men, and Murat found himself at rizzo with only thirty followers. He was captured, and shot on fhe 13th of October, 1815, exclaim ing to his executioners, as he threw away the white handkerchief offered to bandage his eyes: "Avoid the face aim at the heart." ICE.
