There was a day when Talleyrand

French devolution. Pursued hy the
bloodhounds of tho reign of terror,

Ho was to bo a botrgarand a wanderer

bread by his daily labor.
"Is there an American slaying at

his arms folded and his head bowed
on his breast. From a window direct

his lorehead. Jlis eves looked from
beneath tho downcast brows, and gazed
upon Talleyrand's face with a peculiar
searching expression. Jlis fuco was a
striking outline; tho mouth nnd chin
indicative of an iron will. Jlis form
was vigorous even with tho snows of
fifty years, was clad in dark but dis
tinguished costume.
'lallcyrand advanced stated that
ho was a fugitive and under tho
impression that the gentleman beforo
him was an American, solicited Ins
kind feelings nnd olliccs.
Ho poured out upon him his history
in eloquent f rench and broken lvnglish.

a look that liillcj-rand never forgot,
he retreated towards tho door of tho

Ho spoko as he rctrcntod backward ;
his voice was full of nvaninir :
"I am tho only man born in the
New World who can raiso his hand to
God and say, 'I have not a friend
not one in nil America.' "
Talleyrand never forgot the over
whelming sadness of the look which
accompanied theso few words.
"Who are you 7 ho cried, ns the
strango man retreated towards tho
next room "what is your name V
