Charles Theodor: D'Estainville found hint- sell, at twenly-o of the Leizenibo coin of the/ real ~ subaltern in a T walkinz in the gardens rg without the smallest in his pocket. He was a giment of hussars, had ti r served in the las - years of Napoleon, am' hadJeceived two light wounds, two ernes. es, and was in a fair way to become field marshal, when Charles X. was sent into exile, and two thirds of his regiment Was put upon half pey. Charleit was among the two-thirds; die world was before bilm, and with twenty Napoleons, a handsoihe figure, and a hundred talents, he came, , as i every Frenchina - does, on the first oppor tunity to Paris. Paris is ontotiously the centre of the word, the paradise of women' and wits, the region of enchantment, and the spot .where every pleasure is to be had at the lowest price. Still, even in Paris, men cannot live; upon air, And Charles found-his twenty 'Napoleons rapidly dimin ishing. Of course, it is to be presumed ', that he was net without expedients; what Prenchmah ever 'was? And Charles, brill: liant, youtig, andi buoyant, tried every ex- 1 pedient natural to a man of genius. His first was ,fo ascertain the tenderness! of' heart and *eight' of purse that was to ,be 1 Bound anumg the heiresses. Among his 1 own countrywomen, he - found the tender. ness of heart in great abundance, but the weight of purse remarkably light--smiles ' never fed' any Man, and sighs were his 1 aversion. He next tried the English htiir- 1 eases; but the day for captures there was past; the' ladies might be tender,' and the name of Chevalier, Marquis or Conht, was irreiiiiititile by the daughters of Ir4th Earls or Londoe traders; but the Irish ladies having nothing but their blood, were I determined to sell it dear, and. insistedion eblid settleinents!in Franca for imaginary.) estates nt home; and the fair datighteni ofl 'trade were so watched by hideous sins and herculean brothers, that the game was not worth the candle. Rouge et air was next tried. 1 Fortune smiled for qne night on her *mot votary, and frowned for two; the Napoleons went down faster a . faster, until at length the last portrai tof the grand konutie was the solitary tenant of the purse of Charles Theodore D'Estain. wile. It iias this discovery that bad OM I hini to meditate in the gardens of the Isix embourg, a pleasint place for the last walk of despairing foyers,, and the detstiaolife, where helad hi 4 choice of walking a hUn- i dred yards to ttie right, and blowing out his brains undisturbed of man, or a him. , dred yards to t'e left, and plunging into the Seine, actor ing tolhe native style, pi the midst of the tional admiration. ! - : in But while he 'aa pondering no -the al. ternatiie, bight fell, the wind' whistld keenly, the bell g for the closing of t he garden, &DO-Chides. was , forced to leatre the 'place l of hiiii philosophy: In gob*, through the st is he passed by three successive ,heat , s,irith each a pang, *d' jiayei fgli 'the 41 amity of, an empty purr los:pungen t ly as t that moment:T. •He Ow approach the Seine: ‘ That Muddiest bf 'fivers rooked mire muddy than ever, itbd "Charlisiliht'unk - tom a plunge which would so effectually disfigure him. He again felt • 1 hie fait Napoleon; end in the heroism of his recollections was putting, the portrait 1 'of - his great' leader to his lips, when the ,sudden opening of a cafe ' , dolor, the bound orthe scraping of fiddles, and the hum of voices within, told him 'he; might make better use of both himselrand his coin than to bury-either in the Seine, at least for that night. A Frenchman has always two reasons for every thing; a strong one and a weak. He generally gives Way first to the weak one, on the rational ground that the strong one will make way for itself. One of hie reasons for determining to live for at least the next half hour was, that he owed a Week's rent to his landlady, which he was bound in honor to d:scharge; and the other was, that he was desperately, in. love with one of the prettiest girls in Lyons, an exquisite blonde, who had given him all her heart, but having not a sou to give along with it, had pledged herself to wait till Monsieur Charles should be a colonel. It was plain that neither of those purposes could be accomplished if he was to make hie bed that night in the bottom of the Seine. He therefore postponed the per"- formanre until at least he should bleak the matter to the, fair Euphrasia, in a billet worthy of a Frenchman in despair. Ordering coffee, pen, ink, and paper, he sat down to write. To give him a clearer view of the subject, the smart garcon of the cafe lighted a small lamp in the rather dark box into which he had throWn him self and his sorrows. Ile 'began; dashed 1 /ea few sentences of supreme tenderness, and then paused, as is usual even with the most enamoured, for a fresh flaw of ideas.. The lamp bad thrown its radianeeSon a showy parer, and the mirror bad returi- ed the radiance on Charles. His oye caught sight of himself at full length in the mil: or. Few. men, Frenchmen not ex cluded, think themselves altogether-desti tute of personal charms; and Charles was really a handsome figure, such as might 'its possessor, particularly when it was his last look. But why should• it, be his last look, wtui t_4,thought that glanced into his mind? Mahan this classic bead, jetty moustachwe e exquisite imperial, and air chevalrie go for nothing? Are the hearts of the women turned to stone?' 'Are there not hundreds of maids, wives, and widows, that every week marry 'movers compared to this brilliant physiognomy; and am I good fur nothing but to be picked up by a fishing net, laid , out in the Morgue, and paragraphed to to-morrow's Moniteur?— Something must be tried."\ But that something has formed the dif ficulty of heroes and geniuses since the he , ginning of the world. While he paused, he was struck with the voice of a Jew Rabbi, who had marched from the further end of the cafe, offering tbd tickets of a lottery, in which the prizes Were bon-bons. The sound caught his ears, and the idea flashed into 'his head like lightning. " A lottery, why, every thing is done by lone re-7-the world's a lottery. Fortune is a lottery--commissions in the hussars are a lottery—the throne is a lottery, in which Louis Philippe has only drawn the first prize. Marriage is a lotterys—why, then, should not husbands be a lottery? Why should I drOwn myself, when I could be drawn for by half the females of Fran'te, make some rimy woman : the happiest of this happy, and make myself rich into the bargain?"" He threw aside his paper, called the Jew into the 'box, fotind by a few leading questions, that he was a Jew who knew the world—a quick, sagacii}us, sharpwitted rogue—discussed the project of the live lottery with' him, and, before be left the box, had converted his lase letter into a charming address to all the charming wo men of France to purchase tickets in a lottery, of which the capiitil.prize was to be the most captivating of mankind. The Jew was delighted with the projech exhibited all the eagerness of his tribe in vote speculation, and promised for a pet centage, to dispose of all the shares at the synagogue in a week. TO make the mat.- ter more enure, be iust4ed on Charles receiving fifty Napoleons cm the spot, arid fibisbiug the night by supliitig with him ;if his own apartments. The Napoleons were accepted, and so was . the invitation. The Jew packed up his boa-bona, called a ca briolet; the pair got into., it, and were whirled to the Fauxbourg Bt. Antoine. A whole labyrinth of streets, narrow as sew. era, and shirk as- pitch, lied them to the Jew's 'domicile. A passage like* the_ en. trance to a jail there led-them into a room which had a very 'striking resemblance to a dungeon; and Charles begiiii to think that he had trusted the Jew too far—but what could he he robbed of? Rtill he might be sold to the surgeons. The idea was not the most agreeable; and he least a glance upon the Jews motions,rwith la full .resolve if he saw anz treaChery,,ta fly on itimand strangle him on the" !Pet: But his was unnecessary; the: Jew simply touched a' belt, the door °petted, amli to his *stem- ImalOund -himetil(frt,a Amite of mum fornished.
