About sixty years ago I was in Paris ! for the first time in my life. Bonaparte . btill lingered at St. Helena ; and the adventurers, good, bad and indifferent in j c0 character, who had served in his armies, vr, "* * ? i * i 11 1 f 1L- J $ DRU not yet lost an nope OI me return | g0 of their idol, and consequently had not j yet thought it worth while to settle down . , into thorough peace and quietness. Young Paul Ferrand, whom I fre- j quently met at the cafe, and who had j, 1 served as a captain at Waterloo, was !, sure that the Little Corporal would oome ! back ag-.iin soon. "You have not yet beaten him," he would tell me laughing. j -p ' You sent him to Elba, but he returned; j T1 you have Bent him to St. Helena, and he ! ? will return again. We shall see." > Ferrand was an exceedingly nice fel- I low ; and although he professed to cher- ! ~ ish an unquenchable hatred for England and everything English, he had, by some means or other, become attached to Alice m( llae, a young English lady of my ac- 8U1 qnaintouce, apd who_ had been living with her mother since* the conclusion of ., peace at Paris, not far from the abode of p' the ex-captain. And he was always very friendly with me too. He would, it is 80 true, abuse my countrymen most unmer- . cifuUy ; but he was always particularly m frood-natured, and whenever he found mt liimself saying a little too much he 801 would arrest himself and apologize so heartily that I never could be aDgry with kil him. I was alone in the French capital, ^ ! and had few friends there except Mrs. | ml Kae, her daughter Alice, and Paul ; and ev< it happened that I passed a good deal h* of my time in the society of the three, ha1 The mother, a woman still in the prime . of life, and the widow of a king's mes- j *n senger, was a connection ox mine dv : tuj marriage, and that fact gave me a good j excuse for offering my services as escort j "e whenever she and her pretty daughter J thought fit to go to the theatre or the vrL opera. At such times Paul always had Pe seat in the stalls; and between the acts he would come up to my box, to the delight of Alice, who was in love with j? liim, and to the no small satisfaction of be Mrs. Rae, who herself had quite a maternal affection for the young Frenchman, and did not in the least discourage P" his attentions to her daughter. If there ^ were no formal engagement between the two, it was at least perfectly understood ro< by all parties that as soon as Paul should i h? get an appointment, for which at the j time he was a candidate, he was to marry ! hii Alice ; and I, though only a few years J j her senior, was to give her away. ! th< One night the opera house was crowd- foi oil more than usual. A great singer was So to appear, and a new work bv a re- Pa uowned composer was to be performed, em ] Jut Paul Ferrand, sitting in the stalls, su; fceemed scarcely to listen to the music or nij to notice the 'acting; and much more esl often were his eyes turned in the direc- aw 1 ir>n of my box than in that of the stage, foi Alice and liar mother were with me, and dans the ourtain fell at tie conclusion of rei the first act Paul came up to us. He sp: was in high spirits, for he had heard mt that the minister had decided to give him in the -coveted post, and he expected to on hear in a few days that his appointment wa had been sierned by the kincr. We oon- sh] Kratu1 ated him, and as he left us to return p<* lo his seat I whispered to him : "You'll we be a happy man in a month or two th< now, Paul." He smiled and shut the ] ?ioor. for We watched him as he threaded Mb ^v way to his place. It was in the centre ^ <>i the second row from the orchestra, pj? and he had left his opera-glassee on the j0( obair in order to preserve his right to it; ^ but during his absence a tall, military- p0l looking man had appropriated it, and Lad coolly put the glasses on one side. I ^ Paul appioached the stranger with the < utmost politeness, and, I suppose, for naturally I could not hear, requested ^ hiua to move. The interloper did not deign to answer, but sneeringly looked up at Ferrand, as though to ask him < what he meant by his intrusion. Paul qu pointed to the opera-glasses, but the ? stranger neither replied nor moved, but j ^ continued to appear as though he did j ?j not hear. I saw that matters were as- | me suming a dangerons complexion, for in r the new-comer I recognized Victor ( aroquiere, an ex-Bonapartist officer iike Pan;, a notorious bully, and one of J?8 the most celebrated duellists in France. But what could I do ? *1 could only sit , still, much agAinst my will, and witness %ar the inevitable consequences. I thought Alice would faint when Laroqtuere ?in the calmest way rose before the crowded | P? assemblage and struck Pawl in the face i ^ with his glove ; but she recovered her- I self, and like a statue watched her lover Aja pick up his opera-glasses, bow ^o his in- Pai suiter, and, without a word, leave the building. There were some exclama- . tions from the audienoe ; but the duel- J7 list again rose, and with a theatrical air . gazed round, mockingly imitating Paul's parting bow, and resumed his seat. This was too much for poor Alice. She could Sf" not remain any longer; she must go home ; and so, with some difficulty, I ?P* got her and her mother in my carriage, told the coachman to drive them home, ^Te and myself walked quickly to Paul'slodgings. He had arrived before me, and was al- ^ ready writing when I entered his room. ^e, " Of course," he said, as tfe saw' me, and 0f came to\vurds me with both hands out- 0V) .stretched, "you, my dear friend, will ] assist me. It is impossible to do amyihing but fight. Even Alice could not fro make me alter my conviction upon that np Doinl, the insult was so public." " Suppose yon leave the country," I tui suggested. he "Then 1 should have to give up the M< appointment, iiud Alice, too. No, my an dear fellow, I am a Frenchman, and I us must fight. If he shoots me, it cannot frc he helped; if I shoot him, I shall have Ct .11 i. a. jj i t> : _ t stiot too greatest, Bwuuufa m .raxib. j. mi beg you to call npon Laroquiere to- nr ::ight. I have already discovered his ad- pa itress. Here it is." pi, " But must you really fight ? It is wl suicide to fight with a professional duel- yo ist." .... . of "Ah," he said, shaking his head, "I dr am afraid it is suicide; but I must fight! so please don't try and persuade me that m< I need not. And I will fight, too, as tir -oon as possible. You can arrange du everything for to-morrow morning. J ho must have the matter over. In a day or pa two I might be a coward." wl By his looks he implored me to go to Hi Laroquiere, and, constituted as French ab f .ociety was at that time, I had no other ex course open to me, than to do as he to wished. gn " If Monsieur oomes from M. Paul to Ferrand," said a man-servant when I da i inquired whether I could see his master, fo' " M. Laroquiere has sent to say that he wi has not yet left the opera. He has, hoW- ne ever, sent this penciled note, which I am ho to give to the gentleman who oomes from pa 3L Ferrand." di< I tore open the missive. It contained 11 ro cards, one bearing the name of the v ieli8t, and the second that of M. Fer- n ind Delaraie, Rue Vivienne 18. Cer- f< inly it was an off-hand way of aclainting me with tho name and where- a >outs of Laroquiere's second, but as 1 b ished to pick no quarrel, I walked on the Rue Yivienne, and in a few min- a es was ushered into the presence of ti . Delaraie himself. This worthy was v young man, aged about three-and- j s 'enty, and d*essed in tue very extreme : p fashion. His ruffles were immacu- 1< te, and most symmetrically arranged ; f< s face handkerchief was 6teeped iu o sences; his gloves, which lay on tho s ble?for he had only just returned, at t iroquiere's request, from the opera? a jre small and delicate; his tiugers were J o vered w-ith valuable rings, and the t] inch of gold seals depending from his > p b was unusually heavy and brilliant. | a e did not strike me as appearing par- I o ;ularly warlike; but, nevertheless, after o rmally saluting me, he at once touched a >on the object of my visit, and before ti bad been ten minutes in his company t< id arranged to meet Ferrand and my- I If at a certain spot, dear to duelists of a e time, ana to bring Laroquiere with o m. fi "I don't think we shall need a sur- & on," he said to me quite affably at xting ; "but if you please you can " ing one. In his last affair my princi- ^ ,1 shot his man through the temples, ; 0 d he died immediately. I sincerely P ipe, Monsieur, that your friend is as } sver." " Confound the fellow," I said to my- ^ [f as I left the hous3 and sought the ^ 3idenceof my own medical man. "I . i ia n/\4- cnrtV* o ^ x uixuiu fsvrvrx x avj UVV UUUU U J V summate murderer as Laroqniere." After seeing the surgeon, to -whom I ieflv explained matters, I called upon rs. iRae. She was doing her best to tnfort her daughter, who was in the eatest possible distress. "Are they ing to fight ?" she asked me. y "My dear Alice," I said, " they are. I n ve done my best to dissuade Paul, j :t he says, and I am obliged to agree, ^ at he must fight. Let us hope for the ^ st. He has a sure eye and a steady a) nd, and he has right on his side. The t ler man is a sooundrel. And you b ist remember that poor Paul is not an lglishman. If I were he, I would not g;ht; but as it is, the matter cannot be n: erlooked, and indeed everything is ar- ]j aged." tl " You are to be with him ?" said Mrs. ^ ke, looking as white as a sheet. c< " Yes ; they are to meet to-morrow w )rning, and by breakfast time Alice's ^ spense will be over. She must bear tr I. " You must pie vent the duel," sobbed h 3 half heart-broken girl. "Cannot d, ,ul let the insult pass ? But no, it was public." "You can only hope," I Baid. "I 11 see you in the morning; but now I ist go back to him and see that he gets _ ne sleep." ^ " Tell him," cried Alice, " that if he is tc led I shall die. Come here directly <j is over. Come even if he falls; you J ist tell me about it. I must hear |8( erything." She buried her face in he- ai uds; and I, escaping from the unr 0 ppy girl, hurried to Paul. e He was still writing, and his hair was c] disorder, and his face mle when h? med towards me. " I am no coward," (] said, "but I am saying good-bye to f( r, for I shall die to-morrow.li " My dear fellow," I exclaimed, " you & 11 shoot Laroquiere, and be married i K xt month. You mu6t finish your writ- 0 I at once and go to bed. I will sleep 8( re to-night, for I must see that you tl rn out in time to-morrow morning ; so C( as quick as possible." t( Be wrote for another half hour, ad- ft essed the document to Alice Rae, C( iced a lopk of his hair within it, and ^ ?r sealing it up gave it to me. C( " Give that to her," he said, " if La- a juiere kills me outright?and I know will. If it were not for Alice I de- ct xe that I should be quite glad to meet 0 ru Now for bed." aj He undressed, whilst I lay down on n s sofa in the next room and lit a cigar, ti I oould not afford to sleep myself, ec on all was quiet, and I stole in to see n: ,ul, lying as quiet as a child, with a c< die on his face. Probably, nay, as- ti redly, I passed a more uncomfortable ! w ;ht than he did. Only with the great- I a ; possible difficulty could I keep ai ake, and the hours seemed to linger h ever. At last, however, dayb'ght ai wned, and I called Fearand.-who awoke c< ireahed and in comparatively good tc irit8. After a hurried breakfast we p iffled ourselves up, and sallied forth a< the cold iLorning air. Scarcely any 0( e was abroad, except a few Bleepy h tchmen, who seemed to make very hi rewed guesses at the object of our ex- cc iition ; and through the silent streets oi i went for a mile or so, until we reached R 3 meeting-place. a] Laroquiere and Delarie were there'be- ae e us, and my friend, the surgeon, ar- ct od immrvlmfplv affi^rrvnrr)o in Viio cor. n( ge, which waited near at hand. The P itola were produced and loaded. La- tt juiere chose ^n?, and I gave the other Paul; and then the two men took up sitions at a distance of twenty paces m each other, and waited for Delaraie ^ give the signal to fire. j " Stay !" cried the bully, as his second pped back; "let the young hound y. ten to this. I am not trifling with n ; I shall shoot him only where he ^ shes, for I am generous, parbleu I" "If I do not kill you," said Paul f> ietly, "I prefer to die." , "Then I shoot him through the ^ art," coolly observed Laroquiere. S It will te&?h others not to challenge ?> ID ta rhere was something to me unspeaka- ^ r horrible in the way in which these p t words were pronounced, I shud- }1( red, and looked at Paul. He smiled g me, and at the same instant Delarie B[ re the signal. 81 rhere was but one report for Fer- a, id's pistol flashed in the pan. The or fellow turned round towards me w th fixed eye and pale face, and with 0j i name of Alice on his lips fell dead. ^ roquiere turned on his heel and de- ]j( rted auicklv. in comnanv with De aie, while I aided the Burgeon in his a] ef examination of Paul's body. Sure- e, enough, the bullet had passed 0j ough his heart. He must have died ^ tantapeously for he did not move er he fell, and the last smile which he sc i looked at me was still upon his face. n, was a melancholy business in every re- w jet. I had to break the sad news to jjce and her mother, and the two ladies M re so terribly overcome that I feared jj > shock would have some permanent ^ set upon their health. For my part ras obliged to hurry to England as >n as possible; and Laroquiere, I ^ surd, also got away, and ramained out p] France until the affair liad blown w sr. /( [ kept up a correspondence with Mrs. e, and was glad after a time to hear >m her that Alice, though still terribly , set, had learned to look with a certain lount of philosophy upon her misfor- w ae, and had to some extent recovered Y,1 r usual health, if not her usual spirits. ~ santime I settled down in London, I5 d unable to forget my Parisian habits, |10 ually (1ined at one of the then much- j squented taverns in Fleet street.

He had a shot-gun loaded with buckshot, and as the monster neared him he attempted to shoot, but in his hurry and excitement had only halfcocked the weepon. Finding, as he t supposed, that his gun was useless, he began running around a clump of busb, with the grizzly at his heels.
