THE SHADOW OP A HAND.
It is a question that has often been tie
baled whether man or woman possesses
most moral courage. I shall not pretend
to enter into discussion of the matter here,
hut simply relate an incident that came to
my knowledge some years since, proving,
1 think, incontestibly, that some of the
; fairer portion of creation are endowed in
an eminent degree with this virtue.
In the autumn of 1840 circumstances
called me to Dieppe. To tell the truth, I
was by no means sorry to visit this fash
ionable watering place. The change is a
! very agreeable one after a long sojourn in
Paris. It was late in the evening of the
1 Ith of August that 1 arrived at the end
! of my journey, and prodeeded at once to
: the Hotel des Bains, (which, by the by,
I can recommend to those readers who
may happen to visit Dieppe,) and after a
light supper, retired to rest.
1 have alwajN been an early riser. It
makes no difference what lime I go to
bed at night, 1 am sure to get up early in
the morning. I suppose this is habit,
i mre than anything else. However that
may be the morning after my arrival I was
:up by cockcrow, i looked at my watch
! and found it wanted a few minutes to four,
i I determined I would go and explore the
! town.
W hen 1 arrived iu the st.eet 1 was very
much surprised to find it lull of people.-
I 1 gave the inhabitants of Dieppe credit for
j being very industrious, beating their Paris
; ian brethren to nothing in the exercise of
the virtue of early rising, and expected to
discover upon inquiry a practical illustra
. lion of the truth of the adage, by finding
! the citizens of that pretty but rather slow
j town noted for their health, renowned for
1 their wealth, and courted for their wisdom.
I
I was disturbed from tiiese reflections
by observing that the people were all go
! ing in one direction, and they hurried for
j ward as it stimulated by some extraordi
' nary curiosity. I addressed inquiries to
! some of them, but they were too breath
less and in too great a hurrv to make any
reply to me. All they Hid was to point
before them and nod their heads.
N ot being able to obtain any satisfaction
| from them I determined to follow their
| footsteps, as 1 was convinced there must
be something to he seen.
We advanced at a very quick pace down
, a handsome street, which I afterwards
learned was the chief street iu the town,
called the Grande Rue; the crowd all the
time getting denser, so as to render it more
difficult to proceed. We might have gone
i a mile perhaps, when the street suddenly
opened into a large square; this square
| was densely packed with a great mob.—
: '1 'he most distracted noise and confusion
prevailed, but 1 saw something there, rais
ed on a platform at the further end of the
{ square, that engaged my whole attention,
and made my blood feel as if it were turn
ed inlo ice.
It was a guillotine?
Yes, there was tiie hideous frame work
painted black, that I had seen once before
at the Place du Prone in Paris. At the
. moment J turned my eyes on this instru
ment of death, a man was engaged oiling
the groaves, and to enable him to do it more
conveniently the knife was lowered half
j way down between the two posts, and the
t morning sun made the blade glitter, ren
j dei'.'ng it easily to be distinguished by the
i whole mjltU'tde.
j Although i had .''ecn an execution, and
i was well aware of the painful effect it had
j upon my mind for rnPnths Afterwards,
morbid curiosity impelled n:e to rc.'nain
and see the conclusion of the tragedy- I
had not to wait long, a neighboring be!!
began to toll and a cart made its appear
ance hearing the criminal. He appeared
to take matters very easy, and when I first
saw him he was conversing gaily with the
two gendarmes who accompanied liiin.—
He was smoking a cigar, and glanced
around at the multitude with the most per
fect nonchalance. The populace when
they saw him raised a yell of execration;
; a palpable sneeV was the only reply he
| deigned to make.
He ascended the steps leading to the
j scaffold with an easv gait, and turning
; sharply around to the mob, stood for a
minute or two with his arms folded, and
foot advanced as if defying them. He
THURSDAY, MARCH 19, 1857.
glanced at tliem a look of unutterable scorn
and muttered between his teeth the word
"Canaille."
It was during this minute or two that I
had time to make a note of his appearance,
lie appeared to be about thirty-live years
of age. lie was tall and powerfully built,
but his features were the very epitome of
villainy. His eyes were dark and large, '
surmounted by bushy eyebrows. He
wore a long moustache which extended i
beyond his cheeks. Every bad passion j
seemed to be expressed in his face, in fact
his countenance might be called perfectly j
devilish. An involuntary shudder ran
through me as 1 gazed upon it.
He resigned himself into the hands of
the executioner, and in a few minutes all
was over. When the time came lor the
knife to descend, 1 had not the courage to
look, hut turned my head away, and it
was only by a shout of the mob that 1
knew the tragedy was finished.
1 enquired of a spectator near me, the
name of the criminal and the crime for
which he had suffered.
The man stared at me with astonishment
saying—
' Why, it's Jacques Reynauld!'
The name struck me as being somewhat
familiar, and 1 endeavored to remember
where 1 had heard it before. 1 suddenly
recollected the Paris newspapers some
months back bad been filled with the his
tory of several awful murders committed
iu Dieppe, and this man's name was in
some way connected with them, but in
w hat manner 1 could not learn. But my
curiosity was now thoroughly excited, and
I immediately made the most minute en
quiries into the matter, and before I left
Dieppe had learned the following partieu
l trs:
In the Rue des Armes, about four months
previous to the time I write, lived a wor
thy haberdasher of the name of Maurice.
His family consisted of himself, his wife,
one child, and a servant girl. They were
quiet, respectable people and very much
respected by ail their neighbors.
M. Maurice did a good business and
frequently bad a considerable sum of mon
ey in his house. He had an extraordinary
run of custom on Saturday, and when the
labors of the day were over he felt very
much fatigued. He shut up his shop and
proceeded to a small room, where his wife
and servant were laying ihe cloth for sup
per.
'My dear,' said his wife, as soon as he
entered the room, 'i should very much
like some oysters for supper to night.'
'1 am afraid it is too late,' replied the
husband, looking at his watch. 'lt is a
quarter past eleven.'
'Oh no, Justine says there is a shop
open round the corner.'
•If that be the case let Justine get some
at once, lor I am as hungry as a hunter.
Thereupon Justine put on her bonnet
and shawl, and went for the oysters; leav
ing the door ajar, that she might not dis
turb her master or mistress when she re
turned.
Now it so happened that the place where
she expected to be able to obtain the oys
ters was closed; but not wishing to disap
point her employers, she determined she
would go and seek them elsewhere. In
pursuance of this object, she entered
Grand Rue, hut had to walk a considera
j ble distance before she could obtain what
she sought. She hurried home again, and
noticed when she arrived at the door ol
j her master's house that the chimes of a
neighboring church struck a quarter to
twelve .Site had, therefore, been absent
just half an hour.
She was surprised to find the door shut,
hut supposing that the wind had blown it
to, she raised the latch. The door was
fastened on the inside. She thought this
rather stra. n " e but then again she reflected
that it was ufJubtless only a necessary
precaution on thepa.Hof her master. She
rung the bell, and was very much con
cerned when, after waiting a few minutes
no reply was made. *They Jiive gtA'ie to
bed,' she said to herself, and felt rather
angry with them for having locked her out.
She now became alarmed, and rung long
and violently—no answer! Her fears were
thoroughly aroused, and she related the
circumstance to some persons passing along
the street. The presence of two or three
gendarmes was soon procured, and they
proceeded at once to break open the door.
The passage into which the door open
etl was perfectly dark; but one of the gen
darmes stumbled over something, and put
ting out his hand to save nimself, it came
. °
hi contact with something wet on the I
ground. A light was immediately obtain
ed, anil a horrible sight presented itself.
Laying across the passage was the dead '
body ol Monsieur Maurice, with his throat !
cut from ear to ear. The floor was swim- j
niing iu blood. In the little room was the
dead body of his wife, presenting the same
ghastly wound. Even the little child in
the cradle had not escaped, for the merci
less assassin had taken its life by the same
horiible means. The house was ransack- '<
ed from top to bottom, and everything of \
value stolen.
I shall not attempt to depict the horror
of the persons who witnessed this shock- !
ing sight; it can be more easily imagined
than described, and to tell the truth I don't j
like dealing in the horrible; it is pandering j
to a morbid taste, and if I have Iransgres- .
sed my usual mode of narration in this
sketch, my only excuse is— it is true.
The most strenuous efforts were made
to detect the murderer, but without any
success. All that could be learned was
that a man had been seen to look intently
in the shop windows about the time M.
Maurice was counting out his day's re
ceipts. The whole town of Dieppe was
horrified, and when night came many a ,
heart trembled. After a few days the :
feeling ol fear began to decrease, when
they were again awakened in a tenfold
mannpr by another shocking murder.
About ten days after the catastrophe iu i
the Rue des Armes, some belated pedestri
ans were making the best of their way
home about two o'clock in the morning.
They were walking very rapidly down the'
Rue Grenard, when they were astounded
by seeing a man on the roof of a house,
with nothing on but his shirt, crying out
with all his strength, 4 murder! murder!
murder!' He held A young child in his
j arms.
They immediately called to him, but all
they could gather from hint wis that mur
der was being committed in the house.—
They directly made fur the door and found
it fastened on the inside. They burst the
door open with a few vigorous kicks and
penetrated inlo the house. They rushed
up stairs and on the first lauding they
I I'uulid the body of a man with his throat
cut. He was dead. They entered a bed
i room—hanging half out of lied was the
body of a woman, mutilated in the same
1 horrible manner, and stone dead. But
they had not yet discovered all the horrore
;in that house of blood. In the kitchen
| was discovered the inanimate corpse of
| the servant girl who had been killed by
1 the same means. The assassin was evi
dently the same that had committed the
murder in the Rue des Armes. The
wounds inflicted were exactly of the same
! character and it was evident the same in
strument had been used.
The young man who was seen on the
roof of the house was called Pierre Du
| lon ; he deposed before the procurer du
! Roi, the next inorninv, as follows:
4 My name is Pierre Dillon; I am twen
ty years of age, and a watch maker by
I trade. For the last two years I have been
j living as assistant with the late Monsieur
' Monton. He resided in Rue Grenard.—
; His family consisted of himself, wife, child
and servant girl- On the night of the 21st
April, 1846, we all of us retired tombed
i early. 1 was accustomed to sleep in one
;of the attics. In the room next to mine
; the servant girl and child slept. About
half past oae o'clock in the morning 1
awoke. I felt very thirsty and rose to get
some water —my pitcher was empty. I
went down stairs to fill it. I had nearly
reaciied the first landing when I saw a
! man stealthily ascending the stairs. lam
a very nervous man. and the recent mur
der had preyed very much on my inind,
and I had been living in continual dread
ever since. The sight of tiiis mail com
pletely paralyzed me, and I stood looking,
not able to move hand or foot, lie had
i nearly reached master's door, when M.
MoTdon opened the door and came out on
the landing. The assassin immediately
rushed upon him, and putting his hand
over my master's mouth prevented him
I from calling out. I noticed only one thing,
that the murderer had only three fingers
on his left hand. I could see no more,
but ran up stairs again, and hurried into
the servant's room; the child was lying on
tlie bed asleep, but the servant girl was not S
in the room. I took up the child in my j
arms and got out on the roof. This is all I
I know about the matter.'
The excitement in Dieppe was now
raisetl to the highest pilch. No trace of!
the assassin could he discovered. It was
evident that these murders were the work j
of one man, and that he must have been >
concealed in the houses before they were j
closed lor the night. Government offered
a large reward for the discovery of the !
murderer, and the vigilance of the police j
was thoroughly aroused.
There lived on the outskirts of Dieppe ;
a widow lady by the name of Beautnau
rise. She had no family, but with one I
servant girl lived in a very retired manner,
i'lie cottage in which she resided was sit
uated about half a mile frqin the city—a j
little off from the public road.
Madame Beaumaurice had been the wife
of an old officer of the Guards. She was
an extraordinary woman in every particu
lar, hut especially so in respect to a cer
tain coolness of character she possessed in
the midst of danger, which, together with
a large amount of moral courage made her
a very notable person. The recent mur
ders had perhaps made less impression on !
her mind than upon any one else in Dieppe i
—although it was naturally supposed the
retired situation iu which she lived would
cause her to he more fearful.
About ten o'clock on the night of lite
30th of April, just ten days after the mur
ders in the Rue Grenard, Madame Beau
maurice went up ty her bed-room. She
was suffering from a nervous headache.— ,
Bhe fell very sleepv and seated herself in i
* i
a large arm chair previous to undressing j
herself. The lamp was placed on a chest
of drawers behind her. Opposite to her
was a toilet table, with a cloth on it reach
ing to the floor. She had already com
menced taking off her clothes, when hap
pening to look around her, she saw some
thing that for a moment chilled Iter blood.
It was the shadow ola man's hand on the
floor. Ihe hand had onlv three lingers ! j
Sbe divined the truth in a moment—the i
assassin was there in her house-—under I
the toilet table. She made not the least !
; motion or sign, but reflected two or three
minutes as to the best course to he pursued.
.She decided what to do, and advancing to
the door, called her servant maid,
i 'Oh, Mary !'she exclaimed, when the
• girl entered the room, 'Do you know |
where Afopsieur Bernard lives?'
' \ es, Madaine.'
' I have to pay 5,000 francs away very 1
early in the morning. The fact slipped
my memory until just now. You will
have to run to his house and get the money
for me.'
4 Very well, Madame.'
'1 will write you a note which you will
deliver to liirn, and he will give you bank
, bills to the amount.'
' My dear Monsieur Bernard—
The assassin of the ilue des Armes and the
Rue Grenard is now in my house. Come im
mediately with some gendarmes, and take him
before he escapes. HELEN BEAUMAURICE.'
•\nd without entering into any explana
; tion with her servant, she dispatched her
!on the errand. She then quietly reseated
herself and waited.
Yes, she sat in the room, with that man
under the table, for a whole hour. She
sat there, calm, cool and collected. She
saw the shadow of the hand shift about
several limes, but the murderer did not at
! tempt to escape from his place of conceal
ment.
In due time the gendarmes arrived and
Jacques Reynauld was arrested—not how
! ever without a violent struegle.
1 need scarcely add that the most con
-1 vincing proof as to his guilt was found,
; and in due time he was guillotined as I
have shown in the former part of litis
sketch.
Aew Mode of Naturalization. —A wo
man from Australia, while testifying in a
naturalization case in one of the Califor
nia courts, was asked if she herself was
a citizen, to which she replied, pointing to

jS'HH MSW TARIFF.
A Washington correspondent of the Xew
'Sork I imes has furnished a running abstract
of the new tariff liill just passed by Con
gress. It is the result of a compromise of
conflicting views on the subject, and passed
by a vote of 35 to 8 in the Senate, and 124 to
71 in the House of Representatives. It goes
into full effect on the Ist July next, and the
new rates of duties to apply to all goods im
ported, -but warehoused, in the meantime. a
though the same had been imported after the
30th June. The immediate practical results
aside from the main purpose to reduce the
present redundant customs revenue about
$14,000,000 per annum on the current scale
oi importations, will be to throw a large por
tion ot the highly dutiable goods now on the
way from foreign States into publie store, to
await the operation of the new bill, and to
postpone a considerable share of the usual
importations ordered for May and June until
alter the Ist July. The importations will no
doubt be heavy for several winters, and the
very serious apprehension is that the reduc
tion in some of the schedules of the act of
184G may, while curtailing'the revenue, afford
undue encouragement to an excessive scale of
importation. The general arrangement of
the modification of the schedules is thus:
