ten, however, in the charm ol her natural
ness, her grace, her loving, winning man
ner ; and she soon endeared herself to
Ashley as a playmate, and to Mrs. Couite
naye as a pruttgee.
Her mother had written to her brother;
but she was herself rapidly decliniii. Her
only hope now, as she told Mrs. t'ouite
naye, was to see her brother, and to con
sign to his fostering rare her child. Three

where she was ttfatfil bi a plaything both

not to oi ve up to such sorrow, she would
endeavor to obey him would dash oil" the

play for linn some of Iht wildest and mer
riest piece. I low (jrati ful, too, was ihe

little service of love he could render her ;
urianoiii'T her bouquets, her j'trdinhrc,
which no one could do so well, or to tast
ily, as the lillle French pirl. ' Everyday
would she, in InT grateful love, seek some
delightful surprises to one or the other ol
the objects ol her devotion. The old pro
verb, 'dove begets love,"' held oood ill Ibis
case; (or tin; tendi icst nli'ection for this
fiirTiejiifi- linle creature sprang up in the
hearts i f her two protectors.
.Mrs. ("out li ra ve had already r.ltetided

into an excellent school, when InT uncle

but a sufficiency, upon which, wilh econo

Tyrants and slaves nre twin-born foes;

lo bale. Out of a population of 160.000, thn

yond the 5,000 priests and official persons
connected w ith it. Of this no well informed
resident, I believe, on'ertai'ns a doubt. Sd
that when I lief hour of vengeance comes, a
terrible retribution may be looked for.
Wiih nil its vigilance the police cannot
wholly rppiess or fores'all the wrath of the
people, and as '.assinalion, or secret attempts
at personal revenge, are of almost nijihtly
occurrence. One man is sometimes unfortu
nately mistaken in lhe dark for another, and
several snd wounds have thus been inflicted
upon innocent persons. Society is thus daily
becoming more ami more demoralized.
There is no hope but through a total change
in the character nnd conduct of the Govern
