In tgo coach-otlice . at Ceraay et.. two young
men who had just taken their places t for Kapser
berg. They were of the same age-feach about
four-and-twenty; but there were rentaikable differ
ences in their physiognomy and general appearance..
The shortet of the two was dark, pale, Wad quick in
his movements, and of an impatient vivitcity of man•
net which betrayed, at a first glance, ibis southern
origin. His companion, on the contrOry, tall, fair
and ruddy,' was a perfect type of that nixed
hlsi
tian race, in Which French expantivenSas is happily
blended with German good humor. OP the ground
at their feet were two small portmaiteatti,. upon
which cards of adlrese were fastened' !with sealing
wax. Oa one of these card. was ineciribed
Hanar Foarin. Mahellle . 4;
and at its four eorneri a seal bad impressed upon
the wax the motto "Mon Droit."
On the other card was written: 1
'askant Mu uutx, St rasbert ;
and the motto of the scat was i "Caritad.";
The office keeper had entered their homes in his
book, and added the word; uwith the two portman
teaus," when Henry demanded that ih6e should be
weighed. They would be weighed at Kaysererg,
the office keeper replied. The young; man. said it
would be iaconveoieut to be delayed by that forint
ity at the moment of their arrival. hisses hil right,
he maintained, to hare them weighed It once. The
office-keeper, thus bari s presee,l, grew obstinate in
his turn. In rain did Joseph interfere, and remind
Henry that they had bast , time to dine Wore de
parture. In virtue of his motto, ,the . Marseilles.
never gave way when he thought he was right; and
he always thought that. At last the office-keeper,
weary of the dispute, beat a retreat, and escaped in•
to his dwelling-house. Henry would hare continu
ed the discussion with the porter, bat fortunately
he spoke nothing bat German' So be was lath to
• accompany his friend to the inn, venting upon
by the way, the superabundance of his ill humor.
"By heavens!" he exclaimed, as . soon as 'they
wire in tha street, "you would make-a saint guitar.
Wbut! you would not back . me against that oiisti

"that it was rather he who was in want of a tick

arguments as if your fortune or your honor bad been

"When the right is not worth defending."
"Ah, how like your interrupted Henry, warmly;
"you are always ready to yield; one mast be walking
over your body before you think of defending your
self. Instead of considering the world a battle-&ld,
you take it to be a drawing-room, for the inter
change of,courtesies."

" Full !" cried Healey; "bits I paid you my fare!"
"I will return it-to you, sir," replied the clerk.
"Not at all," answered the pun mom "Hav

"I •ma w2t to the skin," replied Fortin, who could
hardly speak.
The fat man shook himself in Isis huge wrapper,
as if enj tying the warmth and dryness it secured
him.
a It is very bad fur the health to i ket wet," said he
philosoph7cally. '4 Another time I advi9e r tots
bring a cloak .ike mine ; it is very warm and not
dear."
Having given this sensible adirice, he withdrew
his comfortable ccirntenance within his snug gar
ment, and relapeed'iiito a luxurious dose.
It was long after rAghtfall whin the diligence ar
rived at Keyierburg. llalf dead with cold. Fortin
scrambled down from the roof and sought refuge in
the kitchen, where a large Ore blazed. On entering,
he found a group Of travelers already assembled'
round the cheerful hearth, and amongst them, to his
surprise, were his cousin and the traveler whom he
had deprived of his place. The cabriolet had taken
them by a cross•road, which -was a short cut, and
they had been an hour at the inn.
On remarking his cousin's deplorable plight, Hui
:en at once gave up his chair to him ; as for the
traveler whom Fortin had dispoasessed at Cernay,
ho could not restrain a hearty laugh. •
"Upon my livid," he cried, "I Inuit thank this
gentleman for having drivei me from the imperial
of the dilligence ; for. had he not dose an, I should
now be wet and half frozen as he its insteadef being
warm and comfortable as I am."
Fortin's position was altogether too bad to admit
of a retort ; he set down before the fire, and tried to
warm himself.
As soon as he was ',little revived, he asked fur
a room and a bed; but the Keyscrberg fair was only
just over ; and the inn was full of persons who wore
to leave next morning. • Joseph and his companioe.
although they bad arrived before the diliigence, had
found but one small bed vacant, which the turner
had generously given up to the latter. However,
after much inquiry and investigation, it came oat
that tlire was another b.'d disengaged ; but this
stood in a room with four others, to:copied by frau
pedlars, who refused to admit a stranger into
apaitment.
"Did they engage tliti room for thenteei

Misa Charlotte and her niece Louisa were prepar
ine the lea table before a crackling fire of fircoqes.
When's guide spoke a few words in a low voice to
the'two ladies, who received the young man with I
courteous kindness. They made him sit down at
table, and L•osisa filled the cups. As to Miss Cha

her journey; awed in her arm chair, she fancied

Ros Man related what had just occurred at the inn.

" t is impossible to hove' a better heart or more

point of oiling op to his motto: To every one his

"Whereas your wilco is Charity," rej lined the'
old lady with a smile. "Oh: I overheard all that

"A will !" repeated Miss Charlotte, in a tone of
surprise. •
"The will of our uncle. Doctor tiarver."
The two ladies end Mr. Rosman looked at each
other.
0 A11! you are the doctor's relativesr said Mr.
Rosmass i gazing at the yciung man with a certain
degree of inierest. "Chance could hardly have di
rected you better, , sir; for I was his oldest and most
intimate friend." l
This sort of mutual recognition led ,to the con
versation about the deceased doitor. hlulzen had
never seen bim, but be felt for him that sort of res
pectful regard _ which instinct establishes between
members of the same family. Me-talked a I wng time
of the doctor: listened with great interest to details
of his life and of his last moments; and at last after
one of those intimate conversations in. which, heart
and mind throw of disguise, and display themselves
as they really are, he retired to bed, delightel with
Iris hosts, who, on their part were equally pleased
with him.
Tired with his journey, it IVI4 late when he awoke
next morning. He hastened to dress himself, in
'order to seek his cousin, whom he was to accompa
ny to the notary with whom the wilt was deposited.
But, on going down into the breakfast room he found
the notary there, with Mr. Rosman and with Fortin,
fur whom - a messenger had been sent. Miss Char ;
tette and Louisa soon appeared. When all wtqr
sembled, Mr. Rosman turned to the young
said, with a smile:

"Sin " accident has brought together all the par

as well as at the uotares office." ,
Fortis made a sign of 'miens. Every y sat
down, and the notary was about to brea he seal of
the will Urhen he checked himself.
"This will," said he, "is of old ate, and, during

This unexpected proposal was folinwed by aping!
of some moment's duration-. ?Julien was the first
to break silence. -
"As far as I am concerned," said be, modestly,
"having no particular claim upon the good wilt of
the deceased, I cannot consider that I make a sacri

and I am quite willing to consent to it."
"For my part," said Miss Charlotte, "I make no
objections whatever?"
"In the name of tny ward," said Mr. Rosman, "I
give my consent."
“Theo," said the notary, turning to Henry, “tbere
is only this gentleman."
