It is still preserved at Mount Vernon, and can be seen in the large hall secured in a glass case. It is a black, rude, huge cross-handled key, and looks as if it might have been forged by the Cyclo.s. 'The Bastile was for ages the State prison of France, in which all the prisoners be longing to nobility and higher orders were confiried. The king himself or his ministers could by meanm of 'let tera du catchet,' vize any person on any pretext, and keep him in its dun geons without trial or inquiry for years. Somo unfortunatt individuals were so confiued for nearly half a century. When once this horrible key turned upon them, they were lost alike to their friends and to the vorld. Many of the noblest spil its in France have here breathed their last in dark unhealthy cells without accusation or crime. The history of the world can hardly furnish a parallel to the cruel ty and oppression enacted within the walls of the Bastile. When the ven geance of the people laid it low in 1789, many old grey-hcaded prison ers were set free who had been so long itmnured that they regretted the restoration of their liberty.
