MY ADVENTURES IN SMITHBURG.
BY I 1 N fIRADSIIAwE
• Make you a pair before Saturday night, sir,"
said the shoomaket.
•-• "Can't wait," said 1 ;
the next train."
"Oh ! well, now I think," he replied, " here
is.. an uncommon nice pair that may he'll fit.
They was made for a gentleman that didn't take
'em ; too small across here, you see. Try 'em
on, Sir? Ali ! yes so, so, exactly. Why, they
fit like—like they'd been made for you!"
The did fit tolerably well, so I bought them.
In rive minutes more I was seated aboard the
cars in Chatham street, and in half an hour, more
was steaming and rattling away out of the city,
to ward my destination. • I was going on a collect
ing expedition to that secluded little "rural
paradise," Smithburg, which, as you aware, is
situated about a hundred miles back of the City
Hall, and is about the same number of years be
hind the metropolis in the " modern improve
ments." tine of t•li- Bmitlthurgers was in 'debt
to my employers, (tits groat house of tyred &
Company, of whom you have doubtl heard,
Pearl street, just Fulton.) The aforesaid
Smithburger was rumero.l to be on the eve of
"iu , p , taling." heroe my hurried journey. Bo it
r membered that those events occurred two years
tg ,, , at which era debts were still collectable.
" The shades of night wore falling fast " when
the train deposited my carpet bag and myself at
the Smithburg station. I was soon ensconced
in the tavern—an ambitious wooden structure,
very garishly white, and very lavish of piazza
without, which qualities were counterbalanced
by its being very dirty and very cramped for
room within.
When I went over, in the evening, to the store
of my delinquent debtor, I did not find him;
and very brief conversation with the peopAe
whcrn 1 did find, served to inform me that I had
com e ,u s fruitleEs errand. He had, not only
cuepended, but had decamped oat of Smithburg
into parts unknown. He was a dead loss so far
•te Naryred and Company were concerned. All
that could be done with him, was to put, him
tlWil on the debit side of the profit and loss ac
count. There was nothing for it but to go back.
And when does the next train go clown ?"
;t,tiuired 1 of mine host at the "Hotel."
"No train down till 11:5r , - M.," was the
curt response.
Jost my luQk. No money, no assets, no eol
lootiGn, and u.uv., no train I should have ,to
y t',.urftoo hnizer in this dismal country
71 , Pirpd and-very ill-humored, after nod
?.zig a n twin. t..vi-r the ,nn?,, !miler I had read the
d.L.y b, fare in town, I to( k my candle, Nnd took
my eit otl to hod.
It here near midnight, when I was
- , t , hhtnly imm,ed up by a thundering exploAon.
" BANu!"
Itowildered and sleepy, I .Rat up in bed, trying
make rut whether Ntryred and Company
Lad " burst," and were unable to pay ten cents
the dollar; or whether I was aboard a
steamer which had "collapsed a flue,"
~.ud was about to be scalded with hot steam; or
whether
" BANG !" suddenly went a second explosion,
;tad I made out to comprehend that something
was being fired otf under." window.
Jorepieg, ui ! , I rushed to the sash, and peered
out. SRN cncurrh therewee' crowd of men

charge.
it must be rlection 'lay in Smithburg, thought
1, sad they are rrjoicitig ovrr the result Con
f uad the suocce,ful candidate, whoever he is,
making such an infernal racket!
Just then, ono of the youngsters, looking up,
naught sight of me, stand'.lic in my shirt at the
tv , odotv. lie hurried'y L:pok.a to the others, And
then one shouted—
"Buys, let's giv(
And they did.
"Hoo-on-ratv!"
"Soo-no-no-raw!"
"Hon no-00-ra-a-a-w!"
I shraLk back, and crept shivering into bed
just as gun number four went off, amid another
set of cheers. One and thirty times did that ire
Eom.ll piece go off; I devoutly praying each time
ftat it might burst, and so stop. Then there
vv:;re more cheers. Then there was a bon-fire.
hlaziug up so suddenly into the window that I
thought the house had caught fire. Then there
Ati • Hail Columbia" and "Yankee Doodle,.!,'
o n a cracked"fithile and a wheezy olarionet. At
last the Babel quieted down, and I, wondering
considerably what it was all about, fell asleep.
But if I was mystified about the doings of tbe
night, I was considerably more puzzled, by the
doings of the morning. My host metme with
a most profound bow, and was deferentially so- -
licitous about my health. The bar-keeper bow
reventially when I passed him. The bar
r.,ern idlers all respectfully rose to their feet,
( taring hard meanwhile,) as I walked through.
The chareber-tnaid dropped as many •as fifty
courtesies, one after another, when I happened
to meet her in the hall, and so overwhelming
coed was every body, that I half imagined I had
st. , pped out of free and easy America into courte
ous Franco,.
Ou looking around I perceived the house itself
ruarveeunly' changed, :over night. The
scrubbing-brush must have ,'over
1 usy since day-
I,ght fur the floors were freshly scoured, and the
win , lows glistened with polish, while the furni
ture was " set r ,und " in the primmest kind of
01d.,r. The 1 indlidy, although the slatternly
liJur of eight o'clock In the morning, was array
ed in majestic black silk, and her cap, with its
multitudicus cherry-color td ribbons, was mirac
ulous to behold. Miue host evidently had on
Sunday black suit, and had thrust himself
into a clean shirt, starched to an extent that
kept him perpendicular as a grenadier.
It must he, thought I, that this is country
tkir day ; or perhaps they are going to have a
wadding in the house.
IBy the way what was the firing for last
night ?" I inquired. •
Oh ! a mere six 'founder Sir ! but the best
we hlve in Smithburg. The boys thought they
must have it out id honor of your arrivtil "
In honor of my arrival! " ejaculated, I,
taken all bick.
" Yes, your Excellency. But breakfast is rea
dy. Will your Excellency walk in ?"
My arrival I my Excellency ! I was so astound
ed at the sudden distinction with rviaiell I found
myself invested, that I- could onie mechanically
Walk in, and seat myself at the breakfast table.
Certainly the " hotel" had lint forth its most
strenuous efforts to get up that breakfast. There
were boiled chickens and chickens fricasseed;
there wee to huge turkey; there was a roast sir-
Ilein of beef ; there 'was a cold leg of mutton,
4 , 01 a hot leg of veal ; there were ham and eggs,
and It ern without the eggs, and eggs without the
Ipita, pork and berme,; beefsteak; cutlets and
qhops; oahbages, beets, caullflovrers, tomatoes,
dud other vegatables, /ibitala ; sausages; horn
-119 ; oysters and clams; salmon and shad;
Buckwheat-cakes,-biscuit, and johnny-cake; pick
les to an extent ; pies e cake, and sweetmeats,
end whatever else it ever entered the head of a
Country housewife to put on a breakfast table,
and a great deal that never. was thought of be
fore, for any, such perpose. And my solitary
chair was the only one set for this repast! It was
appalling. •
Far aiteadants, I had the landlord and the,
landlady, the young lady " help," magnificent
in ribbons and jewelry, and the bar keeper in a
blue coat and braes . buttons, ,and au enormous
dieralay of wristband, They, all four bustled
about, running over eaah'other in their eager
ness to serve me, while, ttio host, rubbing
_his
hawk and emiling apologetically, remarked:
"Sorry - we have nothing better to give you
Sir;-'but your corning 80 privately, last, night,
took us rather by surprise. Hope you'll be able
to make a breakfaet, Sir."
I ate breakfase in amaze, cogitating whether
these extraordinary attentions could be the resat -
of the wide-spread fame of the house of Naryred
and Company, or whether I had really acheived
a dietinguished reputation without being aware
of it: At any rate, the breakfast vras substantial
aed uo illusion., I inwardly resolved I would
always i,atronize this tavern, wremever I came to

NUMBER 104.
Louis ilirapoleOu and rd.' :lonian.
Louis Napoleon having in November, 1851,
determined on his coup
,tr etcy, took, of course,
every possible measure and precaution that It,
might succeed. The day fixed fur it was the an- ,
niversary of the greatest battle of modern times,
Austerlitz, that
. fight which .beyond all others
proved Napoleon- the Great to be the firstwarrior
that has appeared since Gtestir'at least. In fur
therance of his projects the Boblevarde of Parih
were about three. o'clock in the afternoon of the
Ist of Deco tuber, (18510 suddenly enlivened by
the appearance of a' crowd of lancers, proceed
ing in couples obviously independent of 'each
other, audit seemed going in different directions.
The bustle they ocoassioned etruck all observers !
They evidently carried iespatches, and (Meer two
ofthetn, uncertain oldie rqute they should follow',"
enquired their way. hlnch "surmise aud specula
tion on the object of the proceeding took place,
The public, always wise, settled the matter to
their own satisfaction at least. Devitick, the
gnu-maker and the Government candidate in an
election for the city, of Paris which , took, place
that day, "Devinck," said the gobemouche Paris
ians, "has just been elected, and it is to announce
this victory of a partisan of the Government,'
that these expresses aro soot to all parts of the
Department. Finally the lancers disappeared.
Each of them, it was afterwards ascertained,
proceeded with orders to Vincennes, and to all
the forts detaches, and other military poets, with
new and impressive orders and instructions.
The day had been fine. The night set in simi
larly. The President - of the Republic, (Louis,
Napoleon,) "received," (was "at home,") and'
towards ten o'clo'ck the salons of the Elysee
were' thronged with the celebrities of the day—
ministers,
statesman, ambassadors, legislators.
generals, judges, lawyers, Sze., &c. At the head
of the last mentioned clues, M. Dupla, the first
Advocate in France, would have figured, but
that he had been elected President of the Na
tional Assembly. lie was therefore the most
distinguished of all congregated in the Elysee,
by his talents and his 'position,- and was cor
respondingly toadied by the wily President of th e
Republic, towards whom poor Dnpia was posi
tively supercilious!
Eleven o'clock came. " Bon soir, mon Prince,"
stod Dupin to the President of the Republic with
nonchalance—" monsieur le President,"
returned L )uis Napoleon (according to him the
title of which Dupin was—and justly proud)—
" math J'ai quelgur chose a volts dire. 'Jevons
prie—d'attendex un moment." ("But . I—beg
your pardon—l have something to say to you, ,
and beg you to wait one moment.':)
Dupin could not refuse compliance, but [wink'
csced in the Prince's desire with a sufficiently bail -
grace. Having waited twenty minutes, he ap
proached 'the Prince, who that night, appeared
more amiable than ever he had appeared before,.
and (which was quite new to hilt) id 'high
-spirits. " Prince " Dupin began—" Mon ami—
remain a moment longer, I have something in
teresting for your -private ear," (and he spoke
truly.) Dupin hit his lips, and, with much,
hauteur drew batik. Twenty minutes more
elapsed, the eyes_ of Louis Napoleori• and De
Monty (who was ono of the very few tin the
secret) fixed upon him ince:is:may, both ready
to split their sides at the contortions
. of the law
yer. It was now three quarters post eleven
o'clock, and Dupin, almost furious with impati
ence, the. salon having become almost empty,
again advanced towards Louis Napoleon with, an
air and gesture of determination, which the
latter saw clearly could not be pa'rried, and flew •
to meet him, and anticipate the burst of impa
tience which Dupin was about to indulge In.
M. Dupin," ho said, now gravely, "you.will
presently ace that it was to make no trifling corn
t Lion that I have taken the liberty to detain
•
dependence of the great salon. Having entered,
he closed the door carefully, at which proceeding
Morny, who remained in the salon, was ob- :
,ierved to be almost unable to suppress a laugh.
"M. Dupin," said the Prince, addressing his
guest, " favor we with your opinion on this point,"
Mad he commenced a voluble rhapsody, stopping
at 'every sentence to ask, "Do - ye see?" "Is
that net important?" and a hundred other inter
rogaterie.s. •
The bewildered, and now irritated Dupin found
at length an opportunity to say
" But, Prince, I do not understand a word you
are saying; is it a mystification ?"
"On, M. Dupin ! Do you think me capable of
trifling with you?"
"I oan't says •You intrigue me r do not see
what you are driving at. I beg pardon"—fore the
Prince looked serious.
•
"I moan that Ido not comprehend you. I
must, and, excuse me; I will retire. Illy family
expect me."
The clock struck twelve, and Louis Napoleon
:laid to him with his natural quiet impressiveness
and gravity
" M. Dupin you el top here to-night."
Me!" roared the Pruid,knt of the Assem-
" Yes A chamber is prepared for you." - -
" Prince ! Are you mad ?"
" No. You mu : st pass the night hero."
" Mo ?" exclaimed . Dupirt--this time a little
al trtued by the placid resolved deportment of the:
Prince, " Me. My family--"
"Are aware that for certain reasons of State,
you will pass the night here ? Maclaine Dupin
knew that at elevOn o'clock, and has retired to
"Then,, Prince, I am a prisoner!"
" Pray do note dl it so. You are only yield - -
ng little point to the Chief of the State."
" But I am President of the National Assem
bly. I will not be thus treated. I deinancl.to
be allowed to depart, and to-morrow 1 will state
to the Assembly the treatment experienced by
its President at your hands," and he raised his
yoke.
" Do to-morrow all that may Boon meet to ythi.
At present—and until then, you remain here.
Remonstrances 13 utterly useless. You must
stay, and you must—it pains leis to be so pe
empt.ory—you 'must suLmit,' and in silence: I
make at thiS instant my coup d'etat, at the idea
of which you and your friends have indulged in
so much mirth."
Dupin started : looked aghast, and exclaimed,
I protest ?" •
" Light M. Dupin to his chamber," said Louis
Napoleon, throwing open the, door of the now
vacant salon, and addressing an attendent. Then
wishing his compelled guest " good-night," he
threw a cloak over his shoulder and left the.
Elysee, to meet Conrobert, and see that all his
friends were at their respective posts.
' .M. Dupin was allowed to return home a day
or two afterwards, but remained for nearly eix
Stears in a high state of indignation and disaffec
tion ; and until the other day when the Emperor
named him the successor of M. Ahbatncoi, as
President of the Court of Cassation, the supreme
legal appointment in France. Dupin accepted
it, and abandoned•the Orleans family.
