MADAME DE VARTELLE. In tte middle of the eighteenth cen- j tnry few magistrates wero moro justly i respected by the Parisians than M. dc M-, conseille)' au parlement. Ho was ; a man o? somo sixty-five years of ago, I hale and hearty, a thorough gentleman, and a clear-headed, incorruptible judge. Io those days a Parisian mansion was as capacious ns a modern hotel, with dukes for directors. Thus M. de M.'s mansion accommodated tho whole of his family; or, rather, it was a human warren. Three married sons, and a bishop, the eldest of bis offspring, three married daughters, a sister, the widow of a President a Mor? tier, and a brother, retired irom military ! service with tho rank of lieutenant-colo? nel; and the Cross of St. Louis, lived to? gether in apparent harmony, a united, happy family. Tho eldest and youngest of his married sons bad each a boy, tho second only girls; his daughters wero moro prolific than their brothers. Each of these family sections had their sepa? rate apartments, but every Suudoy, and on certain holidays and family festivals, j they all met at the old gentleman's table, who, it should be stated, bad been for i many years a widower. One morning, while M. de M. was eu- i gaged in making himself master of a case, : the voluminous documents relating to j which were lying before him, his eye sud denly alighted upon a sealed letter, that I he had no) until that timo noticed. Breaking open the seal, he read tho fol? lowing lines : "Tremble, wretch! Thou has ruined me in gaining over thy colleagues to thy views. From this moment I declare war against thee to the death. Thou and thine shall perish one after the other, for my deadly hatred will not be satisfied with tby destruction alono. I shall not sign my name. Seek it among thy nu? merous victims; it will be difficult for thee to select it." Strong in his own consciousness of rectitude, M. do M. threw the letter aside with contempt, though he did not fail to inquire of his servants how it came there. No one had seen, no one had known any? thing about it. This was the only point that caused him uneasiness, for it im? plied the presence of a traitor boueatb his roof, and yet the whole of his house? hold had been born and brod in his own or his father's service. However, the I affair would soon have passed from bis ! memory bad not a circumstaco occurred to give weight to tho threats of bia anony? mous correspondent. One of the assistants in the kitchen, I feeling somewhat hungry, took a .small j basinful of soup from the huge saucepan ; in which tho bouilli was simmering for j the family dinner. Hardly bad be swal- j lowed half-a-dozen .spoonfuls, when be j was seized with sharp, violent pains in | the lower part of his stomach, attended with excessivo vomiting. Vigorous rem? edies wero promptly applied, and by de? grees the poor fellow was restored to health. The master of tho house now called all his peoplo together, and warned them ! that there was an unscrupulous enemy I among them, who bad vowed the de-1 struction of himself and his family. He I reminded thom of the pleasaut relations that had always existed between them,! and implored them, for their own sakes, i not to listen to tho voice of tho tempter, who would assuredly conduct to the gal? lows. Moved by his dignified and fa? therly address, his servants foll on their knees, and with tears and sobs protested their innocence and fidelity, and vowed vengeauce against tho ungrateful mon? itor who should seek to injure tho best of masters. For all that, tho second son, M. do Niore, his wife, and two of their chil? dren, expired in groat agony within the week, after a fow hours of intense suffer? ing. It was a hot, close evening, in the middle of summer, and all four bad drunk copiously from a carafe of eau de groseille. The unfortunate lady was ex? pecting her confinement, and, before she closed her eyes in eternal sleep, gavo birth to a malo child. Madamo de Vartelle, tho wife of the youngest son, took her littlo nephew into her arms. and promised the dying mother she would bring him up as her own boy. Ho was then consigned to the wife of a tenant, who happened to be in the house, and who, by good fortune, was nursing a babe some weeks old. This woman was next day sent back to ber farm, with her little treasure, to keep him, nt least, out of harm's way. A week later, M. de Yartelle, hearing a man in the street below crying ripe figs, opened tho window, and calling to the itinerant fruiterer, purchased a basket of them. To savo trouble, he hoisted up the fruit with a piece of string, and then carried it oft', ns a present, to his father, whom he kuew to bo partial to figs. Tho old gentleman, however, chanced to be particularly engaged, and M. do Vartello accordingly returned to his own apartment. Setting down the figs on a side-table, he thought no more about them; but an hour or so after? wards, being tempted by their freshness and luscious color, ho devoured some half-a-dozen. Almost immediately ho was seized with burning pains, accompa? nied by intenso dryness in tho throat, and much vomiting. Oue of the servants hurried off in search of a doctor, and another went to summou his wife from church, where she was at? tending vespers. M. do Vartcllelingered till tho following morning, when death put an end to his sufferings. On exami? nation, it was discovored that very finely-powdered arsenic had been intro? duced beneath the skin of the figs. Horror and consternation now fell upon all. The old man was nearly heart? broken. Two of his suiis-iu-iaw de? clared their intention of traveling about for a time, and went with their wives and children out of tho doomed house. Madame do Yartelle, however, vowed she would never leave the father of her lost husband, tho grandfather of her children. Her devoteduess gave courage also to Madame d'Orgerel, sister to the magistrate, who was previously on the point of taking her departure, and the eldest sou, tho bishop, who had been engaged with tho affairs of his diocese while these terrible events wore passing, now hastened up to Paris to comfort and consol? his venerable parent. Ile pro? posed to stay a month, but on the twenty-third day exhibited ?onie feverish symptoms, to dispel whio': ho asked Iiis aunt and sister-in-law to make him a particular kind of tisane. His request was instantly complied with, and, on his complaining that it was not sweet enough, some powdered sugar was brought to him. The beverage being at lust to his taste, he drank of it freely, and towards the evening was seized with convulsions, which terminated fatally. The patient had time, however, to make a will, bequeathing bis entire property to the orphan child of his ileca.setl brother, and, failing him, to Madame de Yartelle's eldest boy. All Paris was now in alana. The po? lice were completely at fault, and wore indignantly ridiculed b}- the panic stricken public. The bereaved liaient was fast sinking into tho grave. Sitting ono morning in his library, brooding over his irreparable losses, he was sur? prised by ono of the servants hurriedly entering tho room, and throwing himself on his knees at his Teet. It was the con? fidential valet of the second son, whose babe was a nurse in the country. "Kind master," said he, clasping his hands, "listen to me patiently. Do not think me mad, I entreat you. I must tell you all, and then you may do what you please with me. Two nights before M. de Yartelle's death, I felt some one shnking me. I started up in alarm, and beheld the form of my dear master, M. do Niore, pale and sorrowful. He bade me fear nothing, but see to tho safety of his child. 'Tell my father," he said, 'to send him far away, and let no one but yourself know where he is, otherwise he will perish as surely as my poor brother De Yartelle.' With these words, he vanished from my sight, or rather, I swooned away, and lay in a state of un? consciousness until long after sun-rise. But when my senses returned, I fancied it might bo only a dream, and I feared to mention it to you, sir, lest you should be angry and dismiss mc from your ser? vice. Two dajs afterwards, M. do Yar? telle died. I was torn with remorse, but still shrank from speaking to you. Well, sir, last Tuesday, at nightfall, I was sit tiug by tho fire, thinking of my dear master, and of all that has lately hap? pened, when I felt ns if some one rubbed against me, at tho same time that a chil? ly, fetid air made me shiver-with affright more tbau with cold. A voice, once well known and dear to us all, whispered iu my ear: 'Saint Jean, thou didst not lovo me, then?' 'Oh! yes, master,' I answered, 'dearly, and so I still do. 'How is it, then,' tho voice de? manded, 'that thou refuses! to give mo the consolation of seeing my boy, poor George, rescued from certain dent h ? Yes, he will die as certainly as my unfor? tunate brother, tho bishop. My dear brother, thou to must perish!' 1 heard no more, but on Thursday the bishop died. Since then, I have known no peace. I cannot eat, I cannot sleep, I dread again to behold that melancholy phantom. Oh! sir, do not treat these words as au idle dream. Save your grand-sou! For his father's sake, savo the innocent child!'' Of Saiut Jean's earnestness, lhere could bo no doubt. M. do M. heard him to tho end, without interruption, aud was moved by tho man's affectionate zeal in bohalf of his dead master's child. Ho praised his fidelity, therefore, and bade him bo of good cheer. Ho would think over what ho had said, and decido in n day or two what course to take. In the meanwhile, he desired Saint Jonu to keop bis own counsel, and avoid hinting to any one what he believed ho had seen and heard. Though quito convinced of his sorvant's sincerity, tho old mngistrato had too much sense to placo any faith in the reality of his vision, which he natu? rally attributed to a mind disordered by fear and sorrow.
