He added, that the lady was handsome, accom

some further information would also be gleaned,
as theiruiter obsecurity went somewhat beyond the
Bonnevilles' expectations. Le Blanc seemed long
about the inquiry ; but his letter came al last. It
stated that he bad seen.lhe lady, and could pledge
his honor that she had a fine face, a good figure,
and theairs of a duchess--Weighty wordSfrom such
a connoisseur ; that her name was Catherine de
Chatelaine ; and she had no friends except the old
advocate and his wife, with whom she had lived
for almost two years, paying a large board, which
greatly 'assisted them, as, though highly respectable
and well connected, they had been rediwed almost
to poverty among the thousands who suffered by
-the failure of the Mississippi scheme. Their name
was !Irowasel, and their relationship to mademois•

to be beyonfi tractitg ; while all that he or his

had jam received a massage from Me. doge,*.com-
asanding his immediate attendance no business of
the highest importance, and was already on his way
to Venice.- Armand knew not what to think, but
be could not help keeping a more tigilant eye than
ever on tam sisur•ia•law. Heir coadoct was a mad-
el 01 divitisd property. She had been resented
at court with great whit, and was nber an acknowl
-edged belle in the gay circles .of Paris and yer-
wily; but the lady had no intimates and never
,encouraged admiration. She had acqinred con
siderable influence over her husband; but it was
founded on defensnca, and not love. , Eagan, was
pro u d el her beauty, end of the splendid style in
which her fortune enabled her to live. It was na
tural he eboubl give his friends frequent opportuni•
ties of seeing all these, and his house was one of
the gayest in Paris. In its good company, deep
play, and brilliant evening, the myriterioas appefr
awes of his first day almost faded from Armand's
recolleation. Though less familiar than *lte could
nave wished, Midame de Bonneville and he con
need on' the best terms. An affectionate corres
pondenee was kept op between him and his uncle
but Lespeigne declined, coder one prsteft al an
other, all invitations to renew his visit, and careful
ly avoided asking Armand to Venice. That was
no good sign for the legacy ; and Armand was be
ginning to wonder Übe cbuld not find-an heiress to
marry under favor of his brother's stars, when the
first ball of the carnival tithe was given by the ec
centric counters, Madame Penthievre. Her house
stood in a street which had. been considered Web-
irmable about the period of the Fronde, and was
close upon the Faubourg St. Antoine. •
The known rank and wealth , of the counters
atoned for the arejquated situation of her hotel It
eras her boast, that the best society in Paris had as
sernblvd there for 150 years, and her carnival ball
was always reckoned the grandtvent of the season.
alf Paris was invited, and among •
,the rest the

a slight though sudden indisposition made her re
solve on remaining at home, much to the d: )
sap
ppintmenl of Eugene, who had largely anticipated
the general enthusiasm hitt wile's appearance must
have called fo?th in the ball room ; and only at
the &tit's . earnest request would he consent to ac
company Armani, and express her regrets to Mid.
'ame Penthievre.
The ball was brilliant, but Eugene missed the
prestige of his lady's presence, which had now be
come in a inanneltindispensable ; and by way of
consolation, rather? to the card tables, in the furth

say, discreet tan. He would inks him into conk
dunce ; and trace out the affair without hitorniing
his brother, as it might anger family peace, and
give rive 10 scenes which the well-bred bachelor
(maid - not relish. •
At their late breakfast, Madame appeared as usu
al in an elegant morning dress, declaring herself
quite recovered, and ail solicitude for intelligence
of the ball. Armand gave her a full account, sup
pressing only his own walk through the
, faubouig,
and no hint or glance betray aid their nantual con-
cealment. Arm-and made the porter a present that

Potting, that some of the lowest and strangest
looking creatures cast looks of recognition on Mad
ame de Bonneville as eye passed m the splendor
of plumes and diamonds. Wald rumors concern•
ing the cemetry of the innocents too, were, grow
ing more rile among the populace. Lights had
been perceived in a deserted house of the fanborg,
and figures, believed to be not of this world, Aetna
coming frorn its gate.
Armand had been doing his devoirs oo the last
night of the carnival at a masquerade, in which his
sister•in-law created quite a sensation by her su
perb acting in three different characters ; and going
out next noon oit a pertained visit to the dowager,
he perceived that something extraordivary had dis
composed Jaques. Mindful of hie plan . , Armand
paused, and hoped his wife was well I Thank
Monseigneur, she was. And himself Jaques hes
itated ; he was quite *ell, but there was a trouble
in his mind. Would Monseignetir speak with him
a moment.
Armand wonted. Jaques led the way tohis own
dormitory close by the gate, and having carefully
closed the door, Bahl : " Mousei.;nure, my wife
and l have kept the hotel de Bonneville these thir
ty years ; thank God fur the good fortune that bas
come into it ! but we can't keep silence on a mat
ter which concerns the family. You know, we
had but one daughter we called her Marie for the
Virgin; and tnay be the Ftrgin took her out ot this

Oe 141 Maria there too; sad to comfort our poor
hearts, made a vow that we would go together ev
ery night in the carnival week to pray an hour at
oar child's grave ; we didn't mind the stories that
are going about the place--neitter my wile nor I
was afraid when Marie,was there: ,Don't laugh at
me, Monseigneur, tor, God knows, 4 speak the I

This revelation put the last Anti edge on Arm
and's cutiosty ; besides, when 4 aervints began to
observe, it was time to take actae measures. The
old Porter could depend on ; and by talking with
him on the subject, Armand learned - a fact regard:
inithe great old house which, if he_ever heard
before, escaped his memory—namely, that a small
staircase, hidden by the drapery of madame's
chamber, led to an oratory or'privater chapel long
disused, and looking out on a narrow, crooked lane
front which, by bye streets and alleys, -one might
reachthe Marais. This accounted for madame's
secret egrets ; what business had she in the
