assisted by, a cup_ of strong Mocha,
turning over in

Sack thought, and gmoked and amok
'edi till he Was half asleep, without:com
ing to any. conclusion; -the idea had
taken him strangely; he, however de
termiiied, as indeed he had fifty times
before determined,,to seize the first op
portunity which might present itself of
placing himself in the way of grappling
with some imminent danger. - •We shall
in less than ten minutes see that the
wished frit. opportunity -presented it
self, and in a rather curious manner.
The long vacation arrived ; that time
so wished for, so looked forward to by
all the legal-profession; that time dur
ing which, &c. .
Jack, like many other denizelrof
the Temple, packed op his traps, eent
his clerk, for a cab, stuck a card out
side his door, with the inscription
" Return before the 20th of October,"
" shipped himself all aboard of a ship,"
then of a diligence, and in a due course
"'o s lime found himself.in Paris. One
halrilay: was sufficient to enable him to
:find a OW suite Sr room os, Rue_do Hel
der, BouNtalien ;`and now behold
Jack, fully latitiehed in all the gaiety,
not to say dissipaticmoof the metropolis
of the French.. Jack s e, have before
said, -- was a very good .shOt...,with the.
~pistol, yet he had never been gtkilty of
'that height of folly, a duel ; and hiked
he had often - been heard to say, tha
lie never would. - lie, however, fre
quented many of the - pistol galleries
which abounded in Paris, and amongst
others, he had honored with his pres
ence the lir2aupistold of Mr. Lepage,
where, of course, he very soon became
-known as ~,C e Monsieur anglois, qua
- tire aussi bien qtenn Francais."
One day Jack, on going to the gal
lery of M.. Lepage with, one of his
friends, found it occupied by a young
man well known as one of the best
shots in Paris ; and Most assuredly he •
was a good' shot. • He performed all
the feats whiebsrailition'assigns to the
~Chevalier St. George ; he each, time,
hit the bull's. eye of the -target at the
-usual distance, snuffed a candle with
thaball, split a bullet against the edge
of a knife, and drove la nail! into the
waßby 'striking die fiead .exaCtly in
the centre with.biaball ; and, in,sport,
by a thousand feats of this - nature prov
-ed himself worthy of the name era
first-rate shot; - His amour piopire was'
'reified by the presence of Jack, whom'
the attendant, in , presenting .1 im with
the pistol, bad 'quietly said w s altiaiost
as:good shot as himself; buti at each
'-shot, instead of receiting @En -Jack
the tribute-of praisewhich he deserved,
he, heard . Jack ;in reply. to. the exclaini
tions of isfenieltment 'whteh Ooceeded
from all iti the gallery, say, " •Iti doubt,
. that is a very good shot; but-the result
would-be. very different Pie a . notion,
if he bad • a live 'than for his butt.-"
This,incessant. calling in, queiation 6C
,his pewits as a duellist,— tor Jack had,
repeated his iabseivatiott several" times,'
at first -astonished 'the ," tireur!' .andi
ended by 'annoying' hint ; and, at: len etti
tuning round to Jack, - and,i looking.--at
' him with an 'air half jesting 'end half

little."

proved wrong. The seconds spent a
quarter of an hour, in the-attempt to e -
feet a reconciliation, but in vain. They
then wished to place theantagonists at
