'Jean left the room dn tiptop, , and with the nt.
most caution; then, descending :thwatairs, feigned
to leave for dinner. No sooner sooner was he clear
of the house, thin he made for the Prefecture of
police, and, entering the hotel, asked to see the
lieutenant. The servant, replied that , he could not
be seen. It was tone o'clock, and- the fashionahle
Paris diinier hour of that day—now six hours later.
Not a iralrit dared distort:l'M. de 'telltale from his
meal ; but Jean insisted, stormed; implored ; and
at rest, as they seized hint by the shoulders to
pitch him out, cried—
"Do not . diive me out. I must see Monsieur
tie Bellisle ; .the king's life is In danger !" •
It was on the eve of St. Louis, 1753, and this
king - was Louis XV. - The servants hesitated, hiok
ed at one another, and an agent of police struck by
the man's tone, bade them pans&
" Go, repeat his words to Moneienr•l6 Lieuten

nunciations from persona aiming at exciting anen
t* and gaining money. 41 But let me hear the
details." :
Jean related all that the reader knowS, and ad. I
did that the attempt on the king's )ife was to be
made that evening at the reception on the occa
sion of the eve of the ; fete of St. Len's, when it was
usral to present the monarch - with; bouquets of
floVere. Onit 'of thitie was to contain.a goiine
aubde, that the king, on smelling.it, would tall as
if struck With apoplexy. Bellisle looked at Jean.
His mein was agitated ; he was profoundly-moved.
Ate handsome and honest features were excited as
if by deep indignation ; the pallor of horror was on
his countenance. But the prefect of police, remem,
bering the•pretended revelations of La "'rude and
