W Vp ? ?ie present ti^o, . conversation' ol .my fellow-travelers had consisted of nothing more inte? resting to a stranger, than the -pros-: poets of the harvest and the vintage, I half dozed in the corner of the car? riage, quietly enjoying my cigar. ^Ahf, Monsieur," exclaimed our. new voyageur, "what a splendid cigar* that is yon4 ?r? smoklngl ? knew it to be a Havana, by the aroma, the moment I entered the carriage. Yon cannot got such a thing in France at rainy price, unless you import them yourself, and then yon must Sst a special order to do solrom tho o ver nmonfc. Nevertheless, fine os yours undoubtedly oro, I think mine aro equally good," said he, handing me nt the same tune his cigar-;:aso to help myself. - 4 > This led to a most animated con? versation; and ii I was struck by tho distingue appearance of the stranger at first, half an hour's conversation showed mo that he was a man of rare ability. Like myself, ho Was also a great traveler; had been all over . Europe .and a great port I of Asia and Northern Africa; spoke several of tho languages of Europe with grout fluency, as well as a little Russian and Turkish; and, while comparing notes, I found he waa as well acquainted with the mann ors and customs of the various countries he had visited os . myself-a very un? usual thing in Frenchmen, who have nothing of the passion of the Eng? lish for traveling, and rarely speak any foreign language sufficiently woll? te make themselves understood. During the wholo night we amused , ourselves with d?tails of our adven? tures, and anecdotes. of the strange characters we had met with during our travels; took refreshments toge? ther at different buffets along the line; treated each other in the some friendly, confiding manner as if we had known eaoh other for years. Nothing occurred to interrupt oar harmony until t arrived at Marseilles, where, having secured a place in the. steamer bound for Algiers, we sat down ' to a comfortable breakfast at our hotel. I had, however, scarcely taken the first mouth-ful, when the ; waiter entered, telling me there was a , gentleman waiting to see me in the ad - joining room. A glanoe was suffi-' \ cient to tell me that the person who had sent for me was an agent of the Pope. "Monsieur est Anglais?" said ho, : rather abruptly. "Oui, Monsieur." "I thought so. Yon have come direct from Paris, and yon are on your way to Algiers; yon took somo refreshments at Lyons, and drank a bottle of old Ch amber lin with your compagnon de voyage of the railway carriage." "Most accurately described," I re'-, plied. "Did you ever meet with the gen? tleman before?" "Never," "Of oourso, then, yon know nothing of his history or antecedents?" "Absolutely nothing." "No-, doubt you find him a very pleasant companion?" "I never, met with one more agree? able and gentlemanly." "So much the worse for those ho selects as hie victims. Just look and ?ee'if you have'lost anything?" "No; here is my money all right in my pocket-book, and there are my despatches in the breast-pocket of my coat." "Marvellous, most marvellous!" ' cried my interrogator. "You will no doubt bo astounded when I tell you that yon have made the acquaintance of one of tho most accomplished chevalier d' industrie at this mo? ment in all Europe, who, notwith? standing his disreputable calling, is a nobleman, and is related to somo ol' the first families in France. We have nothing against him at pre? sent; for the very best reason, that he has only just completed his term of ?mpr?50nfi?nWt&j uu?. uo is suou a wonderful actor, and his disguises aro so numerous, and so true to nature, that even the argus-eyes of tho most vigilant agent da police is deceived. Indeed, it was only by the slightest cl nineo I recognized him, aud then I owe it entirely to that strong bottle of Burguudy ho helped you drink at Lyons; but so it is, and has ever boen, in nine oases out of ten, the cleverest men in crime that I have Lad to do with, lose their wits when they have taken a glass too much." On saying this, he turn? ed on his heel,and most unceremoni? ously quitted tho room. I was be? wildered. I know not what to think.

"Monsieur, hare you., seen any? thing in. my conduct darin g out short acquaintance to warrant such a sap? position?" be ; answered, drawing himself up with' all, that indignation of manner and bearing that might be oipeoted from a. gentleman who folt himself injured by an unjust suspi? cion. fJ i <>. T$ftft1 ft "Nothiugl" I. exclaimed; "on the contrary,.in all my travels J never met with a companion I liked so much, noone that was moro amusing; and all I regret is, that I did not kick the fellow down stairs," "Don't bo so banty, Monsieur. Appearances are. all in my favor; but, alas! every word the i agent told you is too trae. I am a; sorry dog, for, having lost all that I had, and after? wards what my friends and relations could, spore, I have been compelled for tho last four or five years to live by my wita. Still, during all. that time, I never forgot that I waa a gen? tleman.

Above all, you charmed me with your conversation and ad? ventures: you made me happy. I was again a gentleman? and you treated me as one. It recalled to my remembrance the brighter period of my life-the time when I was free from crime-the spoiled child of a doting mother, who denied her dar Ung nothing that wealth could pur? chase. And more, Monsieur, having told you something of my sad, event? ful life, I am sure you will grant one favor: please retire into the adjoin? ing room for just five minutes, while I pack up the few things I have, and be oft" On my return, instead of my tra? veling companion, I found a commis wionare from the Messagerie Imperiale Steam Packet .office, who had been sent for my lnggage, and to say that, owing to a telegraphic message just received from Paris, the steamer would sail in less than a quarter of an hour. Having no time to lose, I harried on board, and when in the act of placing a piece of money in the hand of my conductor, a pecu? liar look and a deep-drawn sigh, told me at a glance whom I had before me; but so completely transformed in appearance as to deny the possi? bility of recognition. I had merely a moment to say, "Go on the stage; that is your true vocation. Do not forget this; there is my card; write and let me know if I can be of any service to you." On ail my travels, in my intercourse with my fellow-oreatures, whether civilized or semi-barbarian, I never met with one, however vicious, who bad not something good in his nature, if you happen to Btrike the right chord. Tho high-born, titled roue, who up to this time had been celebrated only for crime, all at once vanished from the world, as if ho never had been. In short, ho adopted the counsel I had given him, chauged his name, o nd is now ono of the most popular actors of the day, as much respected for his virtues as lie is admired for his talents by every man of his acenaintpne?
