BT GEOEGS PARKINSON. It was manya long year ago, and tho scene of my story is the office of one of tho most respectable notaries in Paris, Monsieur Dubois, a man of the old sohool, universally respected for his good sonso, probity and benevolence.. There were present (beside the notary' himself) a lady of middle age, richly dressed; she could never have been handsome, but per? haps had her countenance been less proud and disdainful, she would not have appeared as she did-positively ugly; ah insignificant-looking little man; and a woman, very shabbily dressed, who sat at some distanoe from the others, holding the band of a beautiful little boy. "Her death Was rather sudden," said Mad. Moran ville, the richly-clad lady, to the little man in black. "Yes," replied he, coolly; "but, no doubt, she was well prepared." "Have you any idea of the contents of the will?" "Not the slightest; but we shall soon know. Dubois will open it directly." "Pray, who is that shabby-looking woman? What business can she havo here?" "Oh, don't yon know her? It is the run-away.niece, Marie, who made such a disgraceful match some years ago, with a lieutenant in the army a man of low birth." "I wonder she has the assurance to come into our presence." "So do I; the more so, because our deceased relative, good, pious womaa as she was, must have looked, upon her disobedience and ingratitude with horror." At that moment, Marie approached the speakers; she was yet scarcely in middle age, but sorrow had been be? forehand with time in robbing her cheek of its bloom, and her eyes of their lustre. "Pray, what brings you here?" said Madame Moranville, haughtily. "Madame," replied the poor widow, "I am not come to interfere with your rights; I know I have deserved nothing from my aunt but her par? don, and that I hope to hear she has left me." "What!" cried Madame Moran? ville, "pardon to you, the disgrace of your family, who fled from tho pro? tection of your aunt-the best of aunts-with a low fellow." "Madame, I acknowledge my fault; I have been ungrateful and disobe? dient-I know it; but my sufferings have been so great, that I hope Hea? ven has pardoned me, for I have looked upon the loss of my husband, and the poverty and sorrow attend? ant upon it, as a punishment from above." "And you deserved-" "Oeaae these reproaches, madame," said the.notary, in astern tone; "your cousin's fault is not so very grievous as to call for them." "But why should she insult us with her presence?" "She has a right to be here," re Slied the notary. "She comes at my esire." He then proceeded toread the will, in which, after the usual preamble, the deceased divided her property into three parts. The first was com? posed of a sum of ?8,000 in the hands of the notary; the sooond of a fur? nished country seat of the samo value, and some family jewels; the third of an illustrated prayer-book. The will then proceeded as follows: "I desire that my property may be divided into three lots: the first to -be ?8,000; tho second, the ohateau, furniture and jewels; tho third, my prayer-book, whioh is still in the same state as when I took it with me in the emigration io the Reign of Terror. I pardon t$y niece, Marie, for the sorrow she has caused me; and, as a proof of my sincerity, I mention her in my will. My be? loved cousin, Madame Moranville, will have the first ohoioe; my bro? ther-in-law, Monsieur D'Arleraont, the second, and Marie the last." "Ab, my sister-in-law was a sensi? ble woman," cried Monsieur D'Arle mont. "Yee," said Madame Moranville, tittering; "she has givon a proof of it; Marie will only have ilia prayer? book." S \\->M :t.M.,,." The notary, who seemed scarcely ' able tb contain his indignation, inter? rupted the totterer. "What lot do you choose, madame?" said he. "The ?8,000." , "You aro determined on that?" : "Most undoubtedly. " ''Madam o Moran ville, you are rioh, and your cou pin is very-very pporj .cannot you leave this lot. and take tho prayer-book, that this this-" he seemed for a moment at a . loss for an expression--"this strange Will has put in the balance with the other lota?" "A^'y?u joking, Monsieur JLIu bois?" Cried Madame M?ranville; "or don't you see that my honored cou? sin has made hes will in the express intention that the prayer-box should fall to Marie, who was to have tho last choice?" "And what do you conclude from that?" "I conclude that she desired her niece should understand that prayer and repentance were the only succors She ought to expeot iu this life. Ah, she was a saint, that dear woman." "Saint, quotha!" cried the notaiy, indignantly; "may Heaven defend mo from such a saint! An unforgiving, unnatural woman I I am wrong; I do her injustice. Her intention, I am eure, was to give you and Monsieur D'Arlemont an opportunity of doing a good, a noble action, by dividing the property equally with her poor niece." "Monsieur D'Arlemont will do as he pleases; T repeat, that my choice is mnrW" "Andsoi8 mine,"said D'Arlemont; "I shall take the chateau and all it contains." "Pause one moment, Monsieur D'Arlemont," cried tho notary. "Even if it was tho intention of tho deceased to punish her niece, ought you, a millionaire, to take ad? vantage of her unchristian conduot, to leave ono of your own family languishing in poverty? Will you not at least give up a part of your lot, even a small part, to this poor widow?" "Many thanks for your kind ad? vice, my dear Dubois, "said Arlemont, sneeringly; "the chateau is close to one of my estates, and will suit me admirably-particularly aa it is fur? nished. As for the family jewels, it is impossible for mo to think of part? ing with them." "In that case," said the notary, addressing Marie, "I can only give you, my poor Madame Le Fevre, the prayer-book." Sho took the book, and pressing it to her hps, held it to her son, who cried out with childish delight at thc sight of its richly-gilt cover, "Oh, mamma, let mo have it." "Yes, my boy, you shall have it; it w?l bo tho only legacy I can leave you. But never-never wUl I part with it. I thank Heaven she has pardoned mo! She has said it, and 1 know that she was truth itself." The notary turned away his head. "Don't go, Madame Le Fevre, "said he, "I must speak to you by-and-by.'1 "At that moment, the boy, in playing with the book, unclasped it, and cried ont, "Oh, mamma, look al the pretty pictures! But why are they all covered with this nice thirj paper?" "It is to keep them from being soiled." "But why put six papers to every picture?" His mother looked-she uttered c S'ercing cry, and feU, fainting, inte e arms of Monsieur Dubois, whe said to those present, "Let hei alone, it is nothing, she will not dit this time. Give me thutbook, child you may do mischief to it." The two rioh legatees went away, commenting not very charitably or Murie's swoon, and the evident inte rest tho notary took in her. About a month afterwards they mel Madame Le Fevre and her son, bott well-dressed, riding in a pretty car riage, with two horses. This unes pected sight led them to make in quiry after her, and they found thai she had purchased a handsome house, and was living in a quiet bot vorj good style. Thunder-struck at thii intelligence, they went together tc question the notary. They fount him at his desk. "Do we iaterrupt you?" said th( lady. "I am not particularly busy; onb making out an account of bank stool I have just bought for Madame Lt Fevre." "And for Heaven's sake, when does it come from?" "Why, don't you know?" "No; how should I?" ..Did you not seo what was in tht book when she fainted?" "No." "Well, then, I must teU you, tba the prayer-book containou oixty en cravings, and that each was covorec by six bank notes of fifty pouudi eaohl" "Good heavens 1" cried the gentle man. "Obi if I had but known!" said th? lady. "You had each a ehoioe," said th< notary; "and I tried all I could U provail upon von both tn take th prayer-book, but in vain." "But who could expect to And a fortune in a prayer-book?" "It ia easily explained; ito owner had Buffered great distress in tho emigration in England; she always lived in fear Of being obliged to fly a second time, and as her prayer-book was the only thing she hod not been robbed of in her first flight, she con? cealed the handsome fortune of ?18,0?? in it, to prevent herself being a second time reduced to poverty." The legatees slunk away in silent rage. The good notary chuckled and rubbed his hands. 4'She.was a saint," cried ho. "Ahl ?rou neither of you will say that now, hough yon might say it with truth, j Heaven rest her soul! I shall honor her memory to my dying day." DEMOCRATIC NOMI?ATTONS.

In demanding these measures and rc forms, we arraign tho radical party for it disregard of right, and the unparalleled oppression and tyranny which have mark eil ita career. After tho most solemn ant unanimous pledge of both Bouses of Con greas to prosecute tho war exclusively fo tho maintenance of tho Government am tho preservation of tho Union, under th Constitution, it has repeatedly violatei that most sacred pledge, under whicl alono was rallied that noblo volnntoe army, which carried our flag to victory. Instead of restoring the Union, it nae so far as ia in its power, dissolved it, an subjected ten States, in times of profonni peaco, to military despotism and nogr supremacy. lt bas nullified thcro tho right of trie by jury; it baa abolished tho habeas coi ?>us, that most sacred writ of liberty; i ?aa overthrown the freedom of Bpccch an tho press; it bas substituted arbitrar seizures and arrests, and military trial and Beeret star-chamber inquisitions fe tho conatitutional tribunals; it has dian garded, in timo of peace, tho right of th people to ho freo from searches and sei; uren; it has entored the post and telegrap offices, and even tho privato rooms of n dividual:), and seized their privato papoi and lettors, without any 8peciflc charge ( notico of affidavit, as required by tho o ganio law; it has converted tho America capitol into a bast ile; it baa established system of spies and official espionage I which no constitutional monarchy of El ropo would now dare to resort; it has ab lished tho right of appeal on importai constitutional questions to tho Bupren judicial tribunals, and threatens to cu tail or destroy its original jnrisdictio: which in irrevocably vested by tho Const tution, while tho learned Chiot Juatii has been subjected to tho moBt atrocioi calumnios, meroly becauso ho would n prostitute his high office to the support tho false and partizan charges prefcrn against tho President. Its corruption ai extravagance havo exceeded anytbii known in history, and by ita frauds ai monopolies it has nearly doubled the hu den of tho debt created by tho war.
