'Precisely so. 'She must have no small amount of impudence to present herself here before a respectable fam ily.' •The more so, as Sister Egerie, of noble birth, had never forgiven her that mesalliance.' Anne moved at this time across•the room in which the family of the deceased were assembled. She was pale, her fine eyes. were filled with tears, and her face was furrowed by care with precocious wrinkles: 'What do you come here: for?' said, with great haughtiness, Madame do Villeboys, the lady who, a moment, before, had been interrogating the lit tle man who inherited with her. . . 'Madam,' the poor lady with humility, '.f. do not come hero to claim a part of what does not belong to me; I come solely to see M. Dubois, my poor mister's solicitor, to inquiro. if she spoke of me in her lVt hours,' . 'What! do you think people busy themselves about you ?' arrogantly observed Madame do Vii leboys, 'the dfsieraVr; of a great house—you who wedded a man of nothing-1a 'soldier' of -Dona.. parts's.' 'Madame, my busham4 although a child of the people, was a brave soldier, snit, what'isliater, au honest ulna,' observed Anne. At this 'Moment a venerable parsonage, the no tary Dubois, made his appearance. , • 'Cease,' he said, 'to reproach Anne with a union which her sister has forgiven-her. "Ann 4 loved a generous; brave, and good - man, who bad no other crime to reproach himself with than his pov erty and the obscurity of his name; Neverthe. , less, had he lived, if his family had known him as I knew him, I, his old friend, Annie would be at this time happy and respected.' 'nut why is this woman here ?' 'llamas° it is her place to be here,' said the no tary, gravely; `.l myself requested her to attend here. M. Dubois thim proceeded to open the will 'I, being of sound mind and heart, ifgeire de Damen iug, retired as a boarder in the Convent of the &stag of thoSxered Heart of Jesus,,dietate the following wishes as the expression of my for mal desire and principal dense of my testament, 'After my decease there willbelbund two hun dred thousand francs in money at my tv,ta ry's, besides jewelry, clothes and furniture, as also a chateau worth two hundred thousand 'ln the convent where I have been residing there will only be found my book "Ileums de la Vierge," which remains as it was when I took it with me at the time of the emigration.

'The third lot, my book, "Hooves de laVieize." have pardoned my sister Anne the grief which she has caused to us, and I would have comforted her in her sorrows if I had known sooner of her return to France.

ORIGIN OF THE ODD FEL- Many persons who are under the impression that the society of Odd-Pellows is an organize, tint of modern titries will be somewhat surprised to learn that its origin dates as far back as the time of Nero, and was established• by thi, Roman soldiers in the year 5 . r . ) , . At that time they were Celled Oiiiiene;" the iiresent name being given theni by Titus atesar, twenty four years af terwards, and they wore so called from the singu lar character of their meetings, and from their knowing each other by night or fin's by means of mystical signs and latigtia6, it the same time he presented them with a dispensation, engraved on a plate of gold, bearing different eniblenis of mortality. In the fifth century the Order was wtablished in the Spanish dominions, and in Portugal in the Sixth century. It did not reach krance and Englund until the eleventh century. It was then established in the latter country by John De Neville, who, assisted by five knights from Frans(); formed a lirtind Lodge in London. This ancient friarnity ha:s now its lodges in every quarter of the globe, and by its usefulness and benevolent character, commands the respect and coiiiitenance of all who are' acquainted with its nature and purposes. tift• Airell.-bi4d 4 iodan -iti polit4; , eviir*here;ana kfriFir'l43ii4oii doh.• - • - LOWS SAM ST A:CKPOLE'S ADVEN- TURE.
