ThE CABMAN'S STORY.
ST. 41ILKLISDIR. PUMAS.
(Continsied.)
Itt,hallan - hour I was ready to start again. With
what ttiatited politeness he lowered the steps fur mc!
1 rein :low plate beside him, and after IS prelimina•
rz.bicrtrllitid terew motions of the upper ballot my
boilY,',,t-feantr thyself again in that species of easy
dttidr;irltrch'had once already so disposed me to con-
I'sisid to him—my eyes half closed—
rualtiOltendy.'
Collgisti seized at once my communicative mo
ment. He asked trick!):
'M. - Charles Nodier-=isn't he a gentleman that
makes heels?'
.fte - is:' how the deuce Jid you know that!'
'Nei' read a. romance of his; it was when! was with
Monsledr gtigtights' (and a sigh escaped him;) 'there
was is' girl, and her sweetheart was guillotined.'
Tlcerese Aubert, you mean.'
'That's "the ' book, Monsieu'r.------All! if I knew
him— i that RI. . Nodier—l could tell him something to
write a win:mice about!'
"Ahl'
'You may well any it. Monsieur! If I could use
a pen as well as I can a whip, I would not tell it to
stray onp.alse,—l would writ , about it myself.'
‘trell,:then, tell it to me,' I said.
Wreaked at me with a knowing wink, as he ris.
•O 4 pm! thet's•satother thing!'
'Why?'
'You den% make books,—do you?'
':y n; but I make plays, and perhaps your story May
be tif no use to me fur a drama.'
He Imkked at me again, and asked:
• Perliapa . you are the gentleman that composed Its
densi Pi/roots?"
'No, my friend, I am not.'
'Or. L'Auberge des Adi els!'
'Nur that, either.'
'Fur, whereabouts, then, do ycu make your plays?'
he inquired.
'ust now I make none, unless fur the Tlcdlrc
Francais and thethieon.'
His lips moved and he made a fare whichsave me
clearly to understand that I bad fallen c.insiderahly
in his estimation. Then he reflected for en instant,
and as if he had made on his mind, he said:
w en t once with Monsieur Eugene to the
Frimeais; 16.1 w Tali= play was the like
ness of the Emperor complete,—a fine piece all through,
—then in a little thing tifierwards there was a rogue
ins vatet i s chess, making mnuths!—Well, /dike
C A4berge des Adreis better.'
To this there was no repiviog. Besides, I was al
ready over head and ears in {notary discussions at the
time.
'You make tragedlea, perhaps?' he inquired a ith
side glance,
friend.—l do nor.'
'Thou, what do you inakt-r
'Dramas.'
you are in the romantic line—are you? The
other day I drove an academician to the academy who
flied Off you romance-people nicely. Ile makes ult..
liedips - It'imself,—he spoke off fur me a piece of his
last one. Ido not know his name,—lie was a dry
old chap with the cross of the Legion and a red nose.
You must know him.'
[.nodded—yes, and asked:
ABM your story? '
'Ah! Monsieur. 'tis n melancholy - thing, you see;
there's a man come, to his death in it.'
The tone-of' profound ten pion in which he spoke
theme words increased my curiosity, I urgued him to
Fo on.
'Go on,'—'tis easy enough to say it; btu if I should
fall a-crying 1 could not go on-.---.'
It was now my turn to look at hint.
- 'You see,' ho continued,—'l have not berm a cab•
man always, as you can tell by my livery,' (and he
showed na.., with much self c3tnolacence. the remains
of red facings yet left upon his dress ) ''Tie ten years
since I went into service with Monsieur Eugene. You
didn't know him, perhaps?'
'Eugene who?'
'Ah, d—n! Eugene who' —, i never heard biro
ensiled by any other name; I never saw his fathet nor
his mother. He was a tall young man like you Mon•
eienr, and about your age. How old are you?
'T wen ty-st ve n.
- •thset'so,—he was not so dark-complexioned quite;
*ad then your hair is as curly as a negro's, and his
was es straight as could be. In two words he was a
nicayoung fellow, only that he was us melancholy ns
col An. Ho had ten thousand livrea a year; though
that dia not seem to do him notch good, he always
seemed so sad. I welt into service with him,—very
well. One word came out of his mouth just like
iseether: and always so quiet. It was 'Cantillon, my
Itatt'- I Cantillon, pot the horse to the calm-Mite—
"Catttjllon, if Monsieur Aft-ed de Liner should call,
Any iam not in.' You must know be did'nt like this
510 Linar,—the fact is, he was a rake,--and such a
.take! 'His rooms were in the saute hotel as ours; and
so he was always on top of us.—too much of a good
thing. that.
.The very day I got my order, he came
tome Monsieur Eugene: 'not Mr said I; when pop! my
waster gives a cough; the other hears it and turns on
Ids heel, with—'your master is a puppy.' I. kept
that to myself, and made as though he had'nt said a
- Sarn.d. ,
'Talking of that, Monsieur, what number Rue de
'Bondy, is it?'
• 'No. 6.1.'
`lt Li . , eh?—here we are!'
Taylor was not. at home; and I merely went in and
clewtortt.
'Well, go on.'
'Oh!—my story --- but first, Monsieur, where do
drive to next?'
'Roe &int Lezare, No. 58.'
Mh!—Mademoiselle Mar's,—she is a famous ae
• surest-still.—Well, as I was saying, we went the same
..asesseiegso a soiree in the Rue di lit Pais; I was at my
bone's tail, and the word was, 'go along!' On the
• stroke of twelve, my master came away. He was in
a iisivage humor, for he and Monsieur Alfred had met,
seedbed hind some words toeether. He said, as he got
into the cab to go hoire,.The coxcomb! I must chastise
„„bi en ,A- forgot to tell you, my master was a good
sham but with the sword—oh!--Saint George could not
stand before him. As we came to the bridge—where
the statutes are, you know, though there were none
there then—we met a woman, sobbing so that we
ber above all the noise of the cab. 'Stop!' cried
my master; stop I did. While you could turn your
head, be was out in the street.
'lt Was so dark you could hardly see your hand.—
The 'Wittman was ahead, my master behind. All at
once she atops in the mithlle of the bridge, gets up on
the parapet, and then—splash. Before you could
count two,—jump! goes my master, head first, over af
terler. You see hecould swim like a fish.
'Then,' said 1 to myself, •if I stay here in the cab it
went do much good; and if I jump in there will only
be two to pull out instead of one.' 1 said to my horse
—that fellow there, only he had four years less over
his head then, and two pecks of oats more in his belly
--Maid I, 'Coco, don't stir!' You would have thought
be understood me: he stood like a statue. Very good.
'ln one jump, I am to the river -side. There was a
tittle boat there. I leaped in; it was fast by a rope.—
..I poll and pull. I search for my knife—l bad forgot-
Alen it. All.this time my master was diving like a wild.
,Jock. I give a desperate jerk, and—crack!— t h e
rope breaks,. A little more and I should have fallen
in heekworils into the river; but by good luck, found
myself instead, en the flat of my back- in the boar.—
„Ewa bp myself, 'No time now to wont the stars,' and

overboard. I pulled away with the other, but only
spun round and round like a teetottrm. Then said .1
to myself ' 'Tis no use, I may as well sit still!
'I will never forget that moment, Monsieur, while I
live. It was horrible. It seemed as though the riv
er ran ink; it was so black; unless when now and then
a little wave' rose and broke in foam. Then in the
middle of the stream I saw the girl's white dress for
an instant. or else my master's head as he came up to
draw breath. Then again—and that time only—both
rose at once; and I could hear Monsieur Eugene cry
out for, oy as he caught sight of her. In two strokes
Ee was at the spot where he had seen her dress floating
the moment before. Directly, I could see nothing of
him but his legs stook outabove the water, —then he
disappeared entirely--I was floating down with the
current, not ton steps from thorn, griping my one oar
in my hands as though I could wring it into splinters,
and crying 'God of Heaven! that I don't know how to
swim!'
The neat moment he roso again. This time Ito
had hold of the Oil by her long hair. She was sense
less; and my master was net much better. I could
hear his breath come and go hard, and ha had just e
nough strength left to keep her on the top of the wat
er; for palace she could not move hand of foot, and
was heavy as a stone. Monsieur Eugene turned his
head to see the bank nearest him, and he saw me,
'Cantillon!' cried he, 'this way!' I was on the boat's
edge, stretching out the oar to him, but—cutse it!—
it was not long enough by more than three feet. This
way, Cantillon!' again he shouted. My heart sank
within rue. 'Cantillon!' he showed, and a wave went
over his head. Here I was, month open arid rn) eyes
fastened on the spin; at last ho reappeared and oh!
what a load was nil' my breast! I still kept amour out
to him; be drifted a hair's breadth nearer; 'courage,
dear master, courage!' cried Ito him. Ho was not
able to answer me. 'Let, her go,' I shooted, and save
yourself?' No, no!"—he cried —l—; and his mouth
filled with writer. Alt! Monsieur. there was not a hair
on my head but what was wringing wet. I was still
leaning out of the bout reaching the our. Everything
was whirling round me. The hi idge—the Hotel di.
Gerdes—OW Tuileries—everything—we nt round and
round; but I had eves only IT shut fiend which by lit
tle and little ens sinking before me, fur those eyes just
under the water, still looking at me, and seeming to
grow larger and larger, as I gazed; then I could see
nothing but his hair; then the hair di-appeared like the
rest; and only one arm was above the water, with the
fingers clutching at anothiter. I made one last effirt
—[ stretched out the oar,—new then!—He got hold
of it—all:—
Cantillen wiped his forehead; it wa• henry with
large sweat-drops. I breathed agiiin, and he contin
ued:
'They say well that a drowning man will grasp a
red hot bar of iron; my master griped the oar so that
ho left the marks of his nails on it. I rested the oar
on the bout's side and bore down my end; that raised
the other end, and Mon-ieur Eugene came to the top
of the water. I trembled so that I was afraid every
moment I should let go tho d—d stick. Here I lay
—upon it with my head close to the edge of the little
craft ; drawing tEc oar to me -I steadied it :with my
whole weight. My master's head was thrown back
as if he were in a faint ; I kept drawing in the stick,
and bringing him nearer and nearer. At last I stretch
ed out my arm and got hold of nil wrist ;—it was a
sure case then !—I held him like a vice. Eight days
afterwards, his arms were covered with black and blue
marks.
'lle bad never let go his hold of the gill; I dragged
him into the boat, end her with him, and there they
lay in the bottom, both of them,—one about as dead
as the other. I called to my master,—not a word!-
1 tried to beat the palms of his hand., but they were
clenched as tight ea if he were cracking nuts in them.
I could helve bit-my tongue off for vexation. I took
my oar again and tried to pull ashore. Even with
two I am nut a very great oarsman; with ono I hod
no chance. It was the same old story. I pulled one
way,—the boat went the other,—the current all the
while taking us down. When I saw it was carrying
us off to Havre surely,—said I to myself, "not this
road, any how,—let's call fur help"—and I fell to
shouting like ten men.
'The chaps in the botit for picking up drowned
people and hrineing them to, heard me. They had
their craft afloat like lightning,—in two pulls they
were alonpide and had us in tow. Five minutes
after, my master and the young girl were as snug as
packed herring-V.
