8 A Larky Mistake. Among the steerage passengers who drifted over to New York from Havre, a little while ago, wa a young French girl named Louise Dumont Ilor destination was Newark, Delaware, where she had a distant female relative living, in indigent circumstances, and, aa she believed, the only surviving kin she had in the world. By some mistake, owing to her inability to understand tlio English language, she took a train on the Delaware, Lackawana and Western Railroad, and got oir at New ark, N. J. When she was informed of her error, she bought a ticket to return again to New York on the next train, but on account of a very remarkable occurrence she was induced to change her mind. As the girl sat in the depot, downcast in spirits, alone in a strange land and al most penniless, visions of her home in "La Belle Fiance" crossed her mind. She thought of her mother who had recently died, of her only brother who full with his father as they fought side by side at the terrible battle of Saarbruck, and as she mused upon her past joys and present lone liness, she unconsciously toyed with a large golden locket that was suspended by a strong silver chain from her neck, while tears trickled down hor cheeks. She was a brunette of the loveliest type, and her jet black, wavy hair was arranged with such exquisite taste that it made the broad, high forehead, expressive brown eyes, and grace ful, full throat appear to the best ad vantage. While Louise was abstractedly playing with ber locket, there came into the depot a tall and handsome gentleman, about sixty years of age. lie had something of a mill tary bearing, and his couutcnancn indicat ed intelligence and refinement. The girl's appearance immediately attracted his at tention, and as he, too, was waiting for a train, be occupied the time in watching her. As he walked leisurely to and fro iu the ladies' room, he came near to where the oh-1 was ait.tinfr iiist. on bIia nrtmin1 tl,a o r. j " -- locket and revealed a well-known face, that was the exact counterpart of a picture that he had at homo in his library. It repre sented the Empress Josephine the deceased wife of Napoleon Bonaparte. The gentle man immediately asked the girl, in good French, where she obtained the picture. She replied, with much simplicity : " My mother gave it to me." Requesting the favor of examining the locket, he took it in hand, and, with the greatest astonishment, read the following inscription : "Josephine, to Hortcuse De Miratel, 1812." "My mother was a Miratel," said be, scanning the beautiful French girl's fea tures closely, "and," be added, as a light seemed to flash iu upon bis confused ideas, " she was a sister to llortense De Miratel, who, for some act of faithfulness to the unhappy Josephine, received this locket and portrait as a reward. My good girl, who aro you, anyhow?" The child then related her story how her father and brother had been killed in battle, and that her mother had receutly died ; that she had committed her to the care of the only relative that she believed to be living, at Newark, Delaware. ' The gentleman then being satisfied that the girl was his own niece, disclosed bis own name, Victor Provost. He had escap ed fioin prison when a young man, having been incarcerated by tho Bourbons about the time of the sojourn of Louis Napoleon In America. He fled to this country aud settled at Wllkesbarre, Pa., where he now lives in affluence, being interested in large coal and iron tracts in that locality. It is hardly necessary to state that the niece needed but little pcrsuasiou to accompany ber uncle borne. 1 he romance of her story is in creased by the fact that Mr. Provost has a son, who is a very promising young man, and that he immediately became fascinated with his newly-found cousiu. The old gentleman is iu testacy at the turn things have taken, and has resolved that his son shall marry the girl. Of course young Provost has accepted this proposition with much joy, and orders for a magnificent bridal trousseau are now being tilled by various parties in New York, for the for tunate girl who, but little more than a week ago, was a penniless steerage passen ger in an emigrant ship. C2T" A cable dispatch from Loudon, con taining advices from India on the subject of the famiue there represents the condi tion of the people at very gloomy. In fif teen districts recognized by the Governor General, in addition to Provincial Terri tories, twenty-six million people are afflict ed either by actual famiue or the distress, log scarcity of food, and twelve other districts, containing fourteen million peo ple, are threatened. The latter places are almost roadless and without water. The scarcity of food is spreading to remote re gions removed from railroads and difficult to reach. The famine extends over a very large portion of the country aud the people are in fearful state. The H orse Disease In Oregon. 8an Francisco, February 24.
