BARTHOLOMEW MAO 'IIACRE. • The memorable morning of 4he 24th of August, 1572, had dawned upon' Paris, when . a maid-servant, who had just returned from the city, rushed into the bedroom. of her mis tress—the youthful widow of a brave soldier; . , and in accents of terror made known to her that a general massacre, of the Huguenots had commenced. The ladyhastily arose, exclaim ing, "The will of God be done; Ict es look to Him for preteetiop . ;"'' and having partially dressed, she stepped hurriedly to tile !window. The street was a troubled sCene,fOr the who e population was in commotiOn; and many com panies of soldiers were there, and I all had white crosses in their hats.; "1 Will send to my mother to learn what .fs going forward," said she; and aceorditiglyiti messeag.er was ' despatched ter this purpo*. The bishop of Senlis, who was. the lady's bode, directed her to remove her valuables, atld prt‘tnised to send some one to protect her; ibut its the mean while ho was infinmed thitt his lirrither, M.

"A glorious festival this, M. de Percure," said a lord of the court, as be went by with a band of infuriated follbwers; "how is it that you are not helping toiceltbra" te it?" "Such, zealous Catholicsas yourself my lord, render my feeble service untieeessarv." But M. de Percure was suspected; and his house was'or ! dered to be searched.

"Mercy !Tor the love of God, mercy l"t shrieked a tender maiden from an adjoining street; and mingled With this piercing cryl arose the confused vciices of men, women,' and children, and the brutal shootings of their] murderers.

"Come, m am, give up your cursed notions, and go to Mass with..i out any more ado," said the blackstnith.—F., "But I cannot—l darei not."

' . 1 From this phice of- concealment she pro- 1 cured a passage in a 'boat that was going tot .Sens. In it she had as fellow-passengers two I `monks, a priest, two merchants, and their 1 wives. At Tournelles -their,: passports were , `demanded, and she -had none,. "She is •at .litignetiot, and must- be drowned !" "Conte i tout of the boat?"—were the . sounds which greeted her ears. . "Take Me 'to the house Hf M. de Voysenori-Lbe will answer for, me," !tsbe replied ; . and accordingly two . soldiers `were despatched with h;er to ,the house of the, • :person she, had nametl.4 :Fortunately,.they re- ; mained below whilst she Wentup stairs.

"I assure vdui" said be to the soldiers, " that I have oilin 'seen this lady - at the house of Madame tyEprunes, a goOd Catholic." "That may be, Monsieur, but it the lady herself, : and not Madame d'Eprunes, that we are in quiring-4ont. A . respeetable woman:who was 1 passing, earning what -was going for Ward, inquired JWhat they wished to do with'the lady. "By Hea,en!" they replied, "this is a.Hugue; pot, and Imust be 'drowned; for' we see how' '. terrified ate is:" " You know me," quickly ansWer4the female; "I am no Huguenot; - ',1.-•-g - '''o ever day.to mass; i but I am so flight- erred, till fin. these eight days past I have i '.been in a fever."

They took her. rack to the boat, observing, "Had you been 3, man, you would not have escaped so easily." At the tithe of this arrest:the lodging whiCh she had quitted: was ransacked, so that - her escape writ most providentially timed. lii hen they arrii:ed at their place of sleeping, the • monks aiyl. the merchant's chuckled aver the massacr4 of the Protestants. "What - a happy ' i riddance!" observed one of the monks; "the ' j heretic Huguenots haveireceited their death , blow at last." "Yes," replieslne of the mer chants.; i?`we shall have but little trouble from ' them forl, the future, I hope." !"Hope!- there can be . no doubt that the cursed heresy will be I exterminated," said the - monk. I"By St. Denis, • thii lady's voicestnackSllike that of a Hogue hot," observed another.: : - On quitting the river, She lodged in disguise I in a country virage, where she narrowlyeseap- ; ed the soldiers, who hunted their victims like! blbodhounds. She .then went to ;the estate °flier grandmother, and from thence to the house of her eldest brother, who had consent ed to go to mass.. His conscience, however, was Milt ease,and'hia sister's arrival increased I his anxiety; she resolved, however, to: relieve I him of her presence as soonas possible. Scantily: provided with moneyand clothing, she proceed'. cd to Sedan, which she reached on th first of; N6vember.. Here, at last; she found numer— ous friends, who received her with kindness, and supplied her with every comfort. The substance of this -narrative is strictly true; some of the conversations , are taken; from the account of the lady herself, while others are the subject of that account, merely put into the form of a dialogue. The heroine t of the story was Madame de Fonqueres, who subsequently -became the wife of Philip de I Mornay. lord of Plessis Manly, a distinguished I Hnguenot, who himself' happily escaped to Eiigland on this oceasion. He was a states man, an author, and a soldier, and he took a prominent -part in the Council chamber and the camp of Henry IV of France. In 1605, •he proposed the formation of a. general synod of all the reformed churches ofEuropi, ing beer' employed in a similar union in 1583. An embasay was sent to James I to gain his adherence to this project; but .the mitchina tions of:the Jesuits prejudiced him against it. Let its learn from the record of this lady's sufferinks, to be gratefel that we are not un der the iron grasp of papal despotism,'and to I detest the spirit of persecution. In our favored land, the sword and the faggot cannot be em• ployed, but the tongue and the pen are still often made use of to injure those who dare to serve GO according to the dictates. of their own conscience. May we never be numbered amongst those who act. thus, for all such are eisentiapy. persecidors. ' .• THE WIFE. Last Mrinter, s in that dreary time when so many Working.men's homes were cheerless, and the depressing sight met us pa often, of strong-handed men, willing to work, sitting idle by their fire-sides, I used to visit one pi tiable woman. She was young and an Amer , ican, with a husband who looked even younger than herself. They had a-bare upper room in a tenement house,. he with a spruce coat, nice shirt, sat on the floor by the fire smoking a pipe, while she - seived for his bread. lie haul looked for work till he was tired and dis heartened. • At length, he went up into the ebuntry for employment and_obtained it; she' fell aid is his absence, and I found bee !link on the floor , with little coveting, and walbinfl to eat few ItAiseif and bee Awkeluldren, this time, her husband sent her flowage, and wrote not a Word to her: 'Yet it 11F6S. berth rut, most "pedestal thin! to-see 10 ' 01 0' 44 d love for lutCforroOtent • lie troilk -; _r~:: rte', :; ~> 4fift ia .%lew fork.

The child was the daughter of brighter days, but as-she and her husband grew poorer; t40.., , z0u1d . .. net take care of -her. An; older girl near her 7:11•:,,! ticed her away to the dance-houSes, and sume• times she even I stole from her mother to get money to go there. She was glad when. she heard- of her ,6eing taken up, and now - she • would be happylf we would take the wi ole . charge of her, and find a home for her. , "To think of my child coming on the street at last!" she *said, with an agony of tears. In the feeling of the moment, she related • to me her history—a life once happy and su r • rounded with pleasant circumstances, bat must plunging down from misery to misery. _ The keen pain of • it all—more than grace, or penury about her or the ilhfate her children—was 0,1 neglect and ilhtrenl. meat. -The last Summer, she told• tne frankl‘, he had come home one night, and in his into • ication, had threittened to kill her with a knit'e.
