Dr. Edward L— ——y who spent some years in Paris, during tbe reign of Loois Pbillippe, acquiring greater proficiency in the art of sur geryymafwith at least ono'etrange,' Carious, and :excitingsdventure, which we no* record in Lis ,o*n Janguage; , I am naturally as fond of adventure in real ity (s a '3 the doctor,)'as mW persons are of redding about l it; and this admission, I trust, will be sufficient explanation of wbyl became connected with the mysterious affair !am about to relate-. One evening, while returning late from a convivial party to my lodgings, where I had drank a good many healths in a good deal of verf good wine, as I was" sauntering my way along one of the numerously named quays of tbe Seine, not ‘ far from the Hotel Dieu—tbe oldest hospital in Paris, and,by the by, one of the best in the world—humming over a tune, and, by the way of variety, thinking over some of the stories I had'heard of persons being as sassinated in this vicinity and thrown into tbe river which I could see'rolling below me, a woman, cloaked and hooded, brushed past me at a quick pace. As ,1 had not heard her till I saw her, and believing myself alone in that locality, I felt my blood quicken with a slight start, and I began to mutter as I searched for a knife; tbe only weapon I carried.; “If.-you was only a-man now, my fine lady, instead of a woman, as you are—God bless the se! collectively—l—” Here I stopped, because she did, wheeling round, facing nie, and looking as if she were taking my dimensions. ‘‘Five feet, nine and a half in boots,” said I, the wine making me rather saucy; “weight, one hundred.and fifty-five, dinner included; age, say twenty-five, more or lees, generally more and mighty good-looking for a man of my site.” , Here I put my hack against a convenient post and began to whistle—the woman all the time eyeing ms: closely. Then she came to ward me, and said in a low. sweet-voice—at least I thought so then : “Will monsieur pardon me ?” “Of course I will, mademoiselle, since you don’t owe me anything, and are not likely to*" said I, thinking myself uncommonly civil, which Was all owing to the very good wine I bad drank, “Is monsieur a doctor ?” “I have that honor, mademoiselle.” “A surgeon, monsieur?” “Not quite equal to Monsieur Blandin, bqt still a surgeon, at your service, mademoiselle.^. ‘‘Monsieur is an Englishman ?” she said, perceiving by my accent that I was a foreigner. “I am,’' returned I, elevating my head with an air of pride. “The Englishmen nre bravo.” “Some of them, mademoiselle.” “And they are also gallant.” “They possibly have the fault, if fault it is, especially when a pretty woman is in the ease.” Here my fair unknown, aa if without think ing, so clever was tbe art, pushed back her hood and. showed me, by tbe dim light ota neighboring lamp, one of the sweetest, pretti est, .most bewitching faces I had ever seen. “Monsieur is a doctor, a surgeon, an Eng lishman, and a brave aaa gallant gentleman ; therefore monsieur will come with me and save a sufferer’s life by his great skill.” “Of course I will, said I. steadying myself by the poet, for the wine’had somehow been increasing its power ever since Reaving my friends. “Of course I will, mademoiselle—only too happy to serve such a beautiful creature— 'pen the henor of a Frenchified English gen tlemen chirurgeon I Pray lead the way mad emoiselle," “Will monsieur be so kind as to take my arm ?” Monsieur was so kind—monsieur would have done almost anything had he been asked just then. Twsnfj paces or so brought us to the stops of one of tbe ports leading down to tbe Seine. My fair unknown decended, and so did I, without asking wherefore. If she had jumped info the water just then, probably I might have jumped in after her. She didn’t, though, and that probably accounts for my not being a dead doctor to-day. Well, as she and I reached tbe stair, a boat rowed by, two men shot up to us, and before I exactly comprehended what was doing, or bow it was done, I fmind myself seated on one of tbfi thwarts, rapidly going somewhere, still rowed by tbe two men. “Whew 1” thought I, “here is an adventure, whether I will or no. Dr. L—, you gouty wine-bibber, you have probably made an ass of yourself, and are now going to have your throat out for the little money you are sup-' posed to. have,, but yon haven’t got it about your person. Well, Dr. L , it’s too, late to whine.or repine now, and so not a word.” And not a word did J say, rather liking than otherwise,’ all except the hiurderingpart, which I hoped migbt-bes’there fancy'of my own, so really fondwaa Inf adventure. - W e .were not many minuteson (ha river, and doping that time jva shot, e|ongpast houses, under bridges, andatnong the. river craft with great swiftness,' but not a word' was spoken. Saddenly we ran into ft low, dark arch; and soon after oameto a stop in gbmh place,where, sof*r at sseing-Mias copcernedrloouldn’t have told myself Jrom abarrel of jnk <: monsieur ,ledoctor, depends ’ifpod JTS”'siifl‘a low/ stern*wbftjftr id . iftlain 'dii mb- ara post,’?, said I, :/t taiire so, if anything. If yqtr bear m« apeak before yon are ready; blow, my-brains out4-that is, what few are left.” j ' ii. i. : '‘Silence 1 You are a- brave jinan, and will’ hot be harmed, Ibut will be wellijpaid for yoar trouble." 1 I 1 ‘‘Thank you, all right; and being all right, as Davy Crockett need to express it, go ahead,” This was hot isiH the talk of wine. I was getting sobered down pretty fast, and almost wished myself safe ip bed in my lodgings, but thought It. best to darry oat my previous sang froid. , - j ‘‘A capitaieorgeon. so far as coolness is con cerned,” I beard Whispered from one to the other. ' ,j •"Come, follow te-Uead, and remember!” said'that stern whisper again, iipd at that mo ment a strong hand took bold of mine.,, r arose, stepped from the ,boat to some stairs,' went up’the steps and through a long narrow 1 passage, all the time in a darkneip that might have been cut with a knife, so to speak, and in silence, that Death himself might base been satisfied with. i •At last'we entered an underground place, that seemed to be a large crypt, as I hastily surveyed by the light of a flambeau that a masked figure held in its hand, ■[■ The other masked figures, all in black gowns, Or dominoes, were standing beside them, and a glance at ,my guide showed'him habited and niksked in the same manner. The girl was not present. Monsieur le chirurgien,” said aloud voice, “ swear by your honor as a gentleman, you will never revpal aught of this night’s adven ture—of what you (have seen or shall see—of what you have heard or shall hc^r —of what you know or shall know.” '• I swear never to make the slightest revela tion while I remain in France,” I replied. “ Enough, Secret assassination will be the penalty if you break your oatb. Now follow me.” 'I up stairs, twq or three and elegantly'; furnished Irncr of which was a bed, a young mao, with face as l groaning at every breath. Js companions turned down iwed me a leg bompleteiy ipe, evidently by pistol or I was conducted Sights, into a small apartment, un one ci and on tbe !bed was white as a sheet, ant One of myroysterioi the coverlet, and shd shattered at the kn musltet ball “Well, monsieur?” said an anxious voice “ There is no help for it, the leg roust come off,” I replied, by this time completely so bered. ’ ' “ Monsieur will it.oflf?” “.I have not my surgical implements with mei” j “ Here are all monsieur can need.” Without another word I took off my coat, rolled up my sleeves,[and went to work, the masks assisting me. The poor sufferer fainted under the painful operation. When all was finished, one of the men,said to me in a low, anxious tone; 1 “ Will he survive ?” I “ With careful attention and nursing, I think he will.” , “ Thanks. ' Monsieur le docteur will write down all necessary instruction.” Pen, ink, and paper being furnished me, this I proceeded to do. When all this was comple ted, a heavy parse was placed in my hand, and tbe mask said: I “Monsieur le docteur will not forget his oath r “ Not likely toj with assassination in prospective,”' said 1. ' , “Enough. Come.” ' I followed my conductor down into the crypt again, and then, in total darkness, was led through a succession of Jong narrow passages, alternating with stairs, the same as before, but ■not ending, where I began—for a door was at last thrown open* and I suddenly found myself in a dark, narrow street. I beard a slight click behind me, and on looking around was greatly aurpritled to find myself alone, standing beside a church, and only a blank wall where I expected to jfnd a door at least. The stones -were all alike, !as far as 1 could see, and noth ing to indicatejan opening of any kind. And yet I had either come through that wallj or else I was dreaming. Was I dreaming ? ; I was not sure, thougjh tbe purse that had beec( placed in my hand felt very heavy indeed. “ Well,” thought I, ‘j this will do for one night, at- any. fate ; and now, like the Dutch burgomaster in the play, I’ll go home and think.” ! I was some distance from the Seine j but I soon found the river, and in less than half an hoar after my lodgings also, which I reached just as the day was breaking. I went to bed, and went to sleep, and slept till noon, and (hen gotjup and counted my money—fifty napoleons, io good, hard, heavy, yellow .gold. ~ “ Well,” said I, “ if my last night’s adven ture was a dream, I onlyj hope and pray' I may keep on dreaming so every night.” | But what was all this i|iystery ? What could it mean ? Pshaw I why trouble my brain about it, since probably I should never know ? On taking my breakfat—or dinner if you ohooae—at the Cafe de Tortoni, I looked over the columns of iLe Moniteur and Unicersel, and soon found myself deeply interested in the de tails of the astounding assassination of Mad ame —, —, a well known favorite of the king of the French. Her apartments bad been entered ; by a band of masked assassins, and the lady stabbed in her bed; Her dying screams had brought assistance, bat not sufficient to secure the ruffians, all of whom had escaped, though one of them had been abot, bpt was carried off by bis. companions. One hundred thousand francs.reward had been offered for the appre hension and conviction of the ruffians, or any of thorn. | ' ' ' ; " ohi 'elf, “ ib !’'‘,sai(J something!'''

Thsy had letters from some of. the most 'proipinagt men of Huntsville, to'the Secretary of War, at Richmond, asking him to give them a pass.—- They came on to Richmond, some six hundred and odd mile?, had an interview with the Sec retary, presenting their letters, and urging him to permit them tp go through.thp lines. * They frankly told him they , were . Northern-ladies, that all their friends resided at the. North, their hearts and their sympathies Tjere, allwith the North, but that while .they had remained in the South, they had dealt honorably, and conducted themselves prudently, giving,, to no one offence, and never intruding on* anyone their own opinions; and for the proof of.this they referred to the letters they brought" from Southern gentlemen well known to the Secreta ry. After spending some two* or three days of earnest entreaty, and endeavor to obtain'd pas?, they were, politely and coldly told that they could not go on—-“ Ladies, we regret that itja so ; but the public safety requires that we per mit no such persons as you appear to.' be,. |o pass North with intelligence. You had better retorn back, and await the development of'fii. tare events.” This final, answer was to Mary almost death. She had beeh sick'; she had buried her husband in New York, and now she had . with her the remains of her only child, trying to reach with, it her home, where she might haveits grave near her. When the final answer was ‘given her she nearly fainted. It was not.so with Martha. Till then she had possessed less for titude and oonsage than Mary, Now, the whole current of her feelings was changed to intense indignation add hate, and she felt that she could endure anything, and go through any hardships for her sister. The next morning, with their melancholy freight, they started on their return South) ana «= far a« Tilmxa-y, WashingtoniCo.unts. say about three hundred miles from Itichmond— the location of Emory and Henry College— r and took up their residence,in a family with whom Mary "was well acquainted, and with whom she had before visited. There she burled her little Annie in the family burying ground of , and where she will rest till she can be brought North. ' They immediately wrote to their (Heads in Huntsville, to ascertain .the practicability of going up through Southern Tennessee toKash ville, and were told in answer that the w|iole route, either by Murfreesboro or Columbia,Vas ■ so' infested by guerrillas, that it would be ex tremely dangerous, and that they had'better re main where they were, and “wait on Provi dence for a chance to go home.” To—; ani bis family, the girls owe a deep debt of grati tude for their kindness and attention. With them they remained about six weeks, when, seeing in the Southern papers anaecountof the operations in the Shenandoah Valley, and hear ing it said that the Yankee vandals would prob ably take Stanton, they immediately started North again, going up the Rail Road to Lynch burg, thence to Charlottesville, and then by the Central Virginia to Stanton. When they got there they found that they could get nearer our lines, so after a few days, they went down the valley turnpike, as far as Mount Sidneyj.whiph is ten miles from where the battle of* Cross Keys was fought. Hhere they were stopped, and, takjijg board in the family of a widow la dy, they resigned themselves to their fate, of fering up prayers for the speedy capture of Mount Sydney, including themselves, by the “vandal Yankees.” Here they remained some three months, Waiting in vain for the advance of the Union army, and trying to invent soma plan to escape through the lines. They waited personally pn “Stonewall” Jackson, pud etu treated him; to grant them permission to go through, but he absolutely refused. They nlj so went themselves,'with others, to the bead! quarters of Gen. Ed. Johnson, told him their situation, anil begged of him a pass through tßplines. He told them he regretted very muc-H that he had no power to comply with their wishes, for he had received orders to let no per sons of Union proclivities pass North. They then told him that, live or die, they should go through, even if they.'had to go at the sacrifice of their baggage, and at the risk of fighting' their way, and being shot down in the attempt, Gen. Johnson told them- he appreciated feelings, admired their courage, and hoped they might succeed, bat that he had nd power to grant them a pass. , , . ■ At the time of the battle of Cross Keys, and Port Republic, the; were within bearing, and had for a time no doubt that the Federal ariqy would succeed in capturing the whole of “Stone-. wall’’ Jackson’s artby,. and, had the army ,of Shields, on the east side of the Shenandoah, onlyhurnt the bridge at Port Republic, tha rebel army of the valley would have been an nihilated. You cannot .well imagine how, dial spuhdent they must felt'when Banks re-t - treated down' the'river from Harrisonburg, and how eUiod they were, when they' learned flint Fremont and others had got Jackson into the ' trap, near Port Republic, from which -they, thought it impossible for him. to escape, arid how they lost all hope; when they learned.that oiiV army, by a most senseless blunder* had permitted- their wily foe; to escape.
