Tub friends of ihc' Restoration were beginning to recover from the alarm of the hundred days, .niid a numerous so ciety, composed of discontented Impe rialists was assembled at the Hotel of the Due dell . The conversation turned on the eclipsed glories of the Tuilleries, and the difficulty of effecting a junction between the old and new no bility. On a sudden the folding doors were thrown open, and an attendant, in a loud voice, announced a messen ger from the King. At these words every one arose, for they considered that a message brought by an officer of the household must bean advance to ward reconciliation. The gentleman approached the master of the house, and bowing, placed a billet sealed with the royal arms', in Ins band. The Duke brojvc the seal, and read, thp contents to his gVics'ts." ' There were hut two lines : "The King will receive the Due do 11- to-morrow after mass. Signed Louis XVIII." After the departure of the messenger, various conjectures were formed re specting this first overture from the rourt, and it was late before tho party generated, having first agreed to meet on the following evening, to learn the result of the important interview.

Arrivcu m uiu leries, this favorite minister of the hm ncror. who was accustomed to the horn age of an obsequious crowd, had now to elbow his way as he best might, in order to arrive at the door of the sane turn sanctorum. He was announced, and the Kina waved his hand to Messrs, Ulacas, Lachatrc.and Ambrogcax.who retired smiling. The door closed after them, and the greaJ, subject of the em pire found hirnsell tete-a-tete with the King of r ranee. - He seated. M. le Due. Sire, it is my duty to stand in your Majesty's presence ! Sit down, I tell you, for I have much tn sav. and the Duke obrved with an SUNBUmY Absolute acquiescence in the declaim of the Hy JIasscr & I.licly. expression of respect, and placed him self in an attitude to listen with attention to the monarch. You were a long time Minister of Police to Bonaparte, M. le Due t Sire, his Majesty, the Emperor, hon ored me by naming me of his coun cil i Far be it from me to blame j our de votion ; I honor faithful servants. But France has recovered her legitimate prince, and you are now my subject, Due dc U , in that character, I ask of you a piece of service, which is to me of some importance. Will your Majesty put my zeal to the proof T 1 he question I am about to ask of you, must be answered with sincerity. The Duke bowed. It is the misfortune of princes to he surrounded by traitors; not only in prosperity, but in adversity. I am in doubt on a point which you alone can relieve, and again I appeal to your sin cerity. I shall obey your Majesty ! Well, then, it is my pleasure that you do not quit my presence until you have told me the name of the wretch who betrayed his unfortunate master at llariwell, and corresponded with vou! I did not expect this question, mutter ed the ex minister of Police, turning pale. Sir, I wait your answer ! I am profoundly grieved that I can not obey your majesty in this particular honor condemns me to be silent. Darkness brings counsel, Due de II therefore, I will give you till to morrow, when I hope, for'your interest as well s mine, that you will be more conformable ! The Duke, on regaining his hotel, shut himself in his cabinet, and refused to see any of the numerous visitors, whom curiosity had brought to his door. The following day, he again present ed himself before the King. Well, M. induced a resolve to oblige me. I have spent the niglit, Sire, in re gretting that your Majesty had not tried my devotion by requiring a possi bility. Then you persist in your refusal ? Irrevocably, Sire. Perhaps we may have the means of rendering you more accommodating. Do you know this writing ? continued the monarch, taking from his bureau a packet of letters. That writing is mine ! And this ? It is also mine ; vour Majesty greatly surprizes me f hxaminc those papers, Monsieur, it you please; you will find that I have in my hand Hie whole ol your correspond ence with your agent at llartwell. Vou perceive that I am very near the truth ; but 1 would have it Irom your lips, m v a - x .l so M. lo Uuc, i asK aain tne mans name ? Will your majesty be pleased to pity mv embarrassment. Instead of convicting and punishing one unworthy person, would you rather that my suspicions should attach to all the companions of my exile. The Duke lamented the awkward situation, ho was placed in. lo relieve your scruples, shall 1 tell you tho amount of the sums which you transmitted to your emissary was it not 4.:8- 000 francs ( Good heaven ! exclaimed the Duke, who can have informed your Majes Have I been rightly informed ? 1 cannot deny the exactitude of the statement ! And yet you hesitate ? Will your Majesty permit me to retire T Not vet. M. lc Due ; presently. I see that to triumph over unconquerable obstinacy, 1 must resort to other means: And tho monarch wrote the following question, and then placed it before the Duke : " The King of Franco desires tho Due de II to divulge the name of the traitor who sold his secrets at Hart- well." Tho character ol the writing caused the Duke to tremble, and return tho paper to Louis,',vho immediately added these words : "If the Due do II resists the orders of his King, he will, perhaps, yield to the entreaties of his bcit Iriend the Due de Blacas t" Gracious powers ! cried the ex-minis' tcr, his eyes fixed on the paper, I am AND SHAMOKIN JOURNAL; maj vi y, the vital principle of Republics, from winch Sunbury, Northumberland Co. confounded that name of Blacas my correspondence in your hands, Sire; that writing is similar ; my ideas are wholly contused ; I know not And you would have the solution of the enigma from me. I will be more communicative than you, M. le Due Know then that the spy of Bonaparte, your correspondent at llartwell, was no other than Louis XVIII, King of France and Navarre. Necessity taught me to disguise my writing. The sums of money received from you were dis tributed in relieving the distresses of my poor emigrants, who were suffering from privations of all kinds; and thus vou contributed 'to a good work un knowingly. The secret was confided to only one friend, my faithful Blacas; and you evinced want of tact when you selected him, Monsieur lc Due.

He was executed in tho Jail Yard, a few min utes before three o'clock, P. M. Al though the execution could not be fully witnessed, by those curious to sec its no velty, and the unparallclled enormity of the crime which caused it, it attracted a very large crowd, which swarmed around the jail, until the wretched be ing atoned for the blood of his kindred with his own.

Down lo the hour of his execution. nay t the very moment the drop fell, he stubbornly persisted in asserting his innocence. All hopes of his making iny acknowledgment was entirely removed by his sullen and dogged conduct. He was taken upon the scaf fold ; every thing was adjusted ; the moment arrived ; the drop fell ! and not a word confessed. But the rope broke, and iHstead of hanging, very much to his -own astonishment, we suppose, he tound hansel! upon the ground under the gallows! He thought he was "clear;" but the illusion was present with him but a moment. He was im mediately taken upon the gallows again and every thing made, ready ; the drop about to fa'II ! when lie begged for time "to talk a, little," and proceeded to make a lull ami detailed conieisiou ot his crimes to the clergymen present, Mr. Brown and Peebles, who reduced it to writing in his own words, as he made it, and who will cause it to be published for the benefit of his wife and children. His confession, it is said, casts yet deeper and darker shades of cruelty over the bloody affair ! He had scarcely concluded his con fession, when the la it minute that the execution could bo delayed, arrived, and he w as again swung off and paid his life a forfeiture for his crimes !
