There was little reason to doui til the evil tales I heard of Courtra, for before heaven he was Just a ma lost in the sea ot worldly disBipatio and drifted on to the rocks of ruin nn Biagrace. "I need not dwell on these partici lars, Gillicuddy, but may simply sa to round out my story that, from or llsgraeeful thing to nnother, ni young gentleman found himself a rosed of a. felony in Ills eSofts to el jut Ills high living, and when the oil x>rs of Justice were asking for hii tie took leg ball and left the counti without shaking hands with them.

It was a year after tbAt whe his rumor was verified, for there cam lad among us fresh from Amerlc rho had been among these same fu iiinters, and lie told a drcndfol tale c ndinn massacre and that with hi wn eyes he had soon Courtray she lown In the wilderness at the hand f savages and seen liiin lying dea mong a score of others. .Aye, Gill uddy. and, more than that, this sam ravcler brought back the papers o lourtray, which he had taken from hi ockct when Ue lay dead.

"As for the young wife, 1 neve card tell of her after, and she niigli s well have been dead and burlct or oblivion swallowed her, and sh ever on mo out of It. "It was no wonder, ftllHeuddy, thn got a start of surprise when I sat iefore ifie my friend Lazarus, and ould /ichree believe my eyes who suw a man dead for ntno years jus nek to his earthly provender with a ppetite that seemed to be keen fror long fast.

' "Tbe first words, (>illicuddy, tin 'itlzen IMcot, or Conrtrny, said to pi vere in explanation of his resurret ion from tlie dead, so to speak. I teems that, while lie had been folic ?y the savages in North America an eft for dead, his scalp had been lei o hi in, fortunately enough, by tl: glinted heathens, who had not tl irac t<* take a lock of Ids hair for r rieinbrance In tne hurry of busbies .'oniing to ids senses, such as the rere, tie found that, strangely enoug its portemonni\le. containing a flask ? ivhisky and all of his private paper ind been taken from 1dm. He sorel nisseu the flask, being nearly dea' lint managed by great effort to cra\ )ut of immediate danger without 1 re 'icttjiib tno root or ms companions, a id Bcorc of theui, lying butchered, ig "The next morning nfter the ambush >t It was his good fortune to fall in with y, a party of English trappers, and by n them he wo* picked up and cared for. ,ii hpitlff r?!l ri'ln/1 1* ilimn tvlfl* mnnlt *11 f id Acuity farther toward tlio west to the headwaters or' tributaries of'the MIsij. slsslppi, and from there, after some y weeks, was floated down tho river on *6 a flat boat to the gulf of Mexico. iy "The pupers like to prove bis identlc ty and left with tho spirit flask were to i the same that had bean picked up and ft. brought to France, and indeed he who oj had brought them told but the truth y when he swore to seeing the owner of them lying dead beside them, for it J,was he who found Courtrny and hnd hastily gatliered up what he thought ll n dead man would hnTe no use for. i* "But I need not make a long story of I* this, Gllllcuddy, so I will just say that my gentleman wandered about the n face of the earth, mainly in and about c the Spanish main, being a negro trader ft at one time In the West India plant ar tlons at Jamaica and at another time a speculator at Guiana. Indeed, Gilli8 cuddy, I haw small doubt that piracy d was one of his trades as well, for he 8 jwas none too good to refuse service in (1 any mission the devil might proffer. It ,was little he cared whetiter his family c In Franco thought him <le#ul or not, and f in truth it was not till he got back to 8 France after a ten years* absence that he heard of his own death ami funeral. b "tie naa oome back to l'"ranee about i; tlie time that the French gentry were c getting over the frontier, and he found ' but a cold hearth and small prospect of f ever seeing fortune smile In that qunrd ter again. He was now a gentleman at n a disadvantage, as I may say, and not c like to think ill of a friend who might come forward with a wuinll loan, r "You see, Gillicunldy, my gentleman it could get no prollt among the arlstoc' racy, for 'deed there was Jlttlo of that e breed left In France, and his pocket was far too shallow to keep up ?npt pearancea, so he was Jnst in love with v the common people itiul lived among 1 them as Citizen Plcot# after the new n style, denouncing the king and the_ 't nobles and clavering about 'liberty,' n 'equality' and 'fraterm'ty' as if he n were Marat himself or flint prince of mountebanks, Philippe d'Orlenns. So b here he was born again to a new life among the canaille, with the old life a of high station lecft behind with all its e debts unpaid, and. I must confess, GUI' llcuddy, that I was myself much in *> the same fashion at the time, for It had n become in Paria an unwholesome tiring l* to be counted one of the quality, and r Indeed if it had not been for the political obligation of tlie times anil a low ebb of my own financial streams I would hardly have been dining myself lt in the Rue St. Honore that day. 8 "After I had heard the long story lie 8 had to tell of his ad ventures and we had emptied sovcral bottles of cheap n Wine I asked him u question which had it i .. ueeu ia my uuiui more 111:111 once mat ** night.
