WOMAN'S DEVOTEDNESS. A True Tale of Napoleon's Time. The Emperor Napoleon had on one occasion af ter an audience with the foreign ministers, remained ; motors* with Josephine in the deep recess of a window that overlooked, the gardens of Pountairt blean. They were interrupted by the entrarice one of his officers, the Chevalier De litervble, who bowing said— Sir, a young lady from Lyons has been wait kg hours for an opportimity to see you." Why was she not admitted ere this!" asked Na poleon hastil. " Tour ma jesty forgot that the Austrian Arirbas sacks bas just departed." Ah ! I had forgotten ! A young woman ! What is her business with rue r " Some petition, I believe, sir," answered De Mervffie_ Well, well, show her into our presence now," said the Emperor, looking .at Josephine with a' smile. The officer retired and soon re-appeared in the. mrrodor, with a lady leaning upon his arm, Whose:, face, as moth as could be seen, was very beautiful! She bled as she approached the door.; " • e," whispered her guide, and pres-i, Ong tier band, " take courage, but answer promptly;;l whatever question the Emperor Firopotes He de4 tests limitation" Then ushering her into The spa l d Coos department, he bowed and retired. • , The trembling girl, seeing Napoleon, 01 woouti her fondest hopes depended, forgot herself, and-her. timidity, she t ho ught only of another. Throwing: herself at the feet of Napoleon, she exclaimed in voice choked with emotion, " Mercy ! Sire, I sue fori enemy and pardon." She could articulate no more:; Josephine stepped from her partial concealment;;' and approaching the group, contributed , more by ber sweet and symping words of encourage:: mart to restore the courage of the young petitioam that even the Emperor by the graciousness of :his manners as he bade her arise. " Your petitiori,! Mademoiselle," said he. illenrierta. Armond (for that was her name) look ing imploringly at the Emperor, exclairhed, " Sire !

A little below 'the stature of .Loris, the cap added to - her height ; while its long black plumes sweeping over her face, effectually concealed it from view. She knew that she was to be led to the fatal ground at the morrow's dawn. The bullet which would have struck Louis to the earth, would pierce her heart, but she shrunk tit back.

Morning. downed. The sound of footsteps aroused Henrietta.. She started up, grasping the band of hair, she awaited the summons. The door opened and two soldiers entered. Repeating the name of Louis Delamarre, they silently led her forth to die. The large court yard, even at this early hour t was filled with soldiers—the comrades of Lcmis--as a&vembled to wits the punishment of desertion. Henrietta milmlytook her place onthe spot assigned to her, het faze bent toward the ground. No one suspected she was other than Louis Delarnarre, the deserter. But he was yet in a distafit part of the guard house, happily ignorant of the devotedn es s of her he loved so well. The soldiers whose bul lets were intended to pierce the heart of Louis, had taken their proper Jistances, and only waited the word of command from the Emperor, who was stationed at a window commanding a view of the whole scene. " Oh 1" cried Josephine, who stood by him, but concealed by the window drapery from the view of those below. "Oh ! Sire, I can endure it no longer, it seems too much like dreadful reality. See the devoted girl! No shrinking back. She seems calmly awaiting the fatal moment." "Stop." cried the Emperor from the window. " Louis -Delan:iarreis pardoned ! I revoke his sen tence." A loud burst of applause from the lips of the. soldiers followed this announcement No one of them but loved and r e spected their comrade. The next moment, ere they could press around to con gratulate thd. supposed Louis, De Mery ii had ea gerly drawn the bewildered Henrietta through the crowd. back to . the door of the cell from which she had emeiged but a few moments before. " Resume your dress again, Mademoiselle," he hurriedly whispered. " Lose no time. The Em peror wishes to see you. I will return soon.". Henrietta was like one in a dream; but a gleam of delicious hope thrilled -her soul ; she felt the dawninga of happiness break upon her heart Soon again resuming her pretty rustic habiliments, De Meridlle reappeared, and once again' she trod the gallery leading to the audience room of the Empe ror.

LUCK IS EVERY THING. By JOSEPH R. CHANDLER. The .course of true love, it is said, did never yet run smooth ; and those who have had experience on that turnpike of theaffections, or rather railroad, as it is soon run over, bear testimony to the jolts, "running off," and washings up alive, of all which the poets speak. We have no great, taste, in this time of politics and perplexities, to dabble in " fan cy stocks," and risk our reputation for gravity ; yet the illustration-of an aphorism of admitted truth, may be considered seasonable, and the moral de duced from the , illustration may compensate some for the, trouble of reading. it. In the year 1814—we remember the thee - well, because a part of the incidents of the story were connected with a great event, an event not likely to be forgotten—well, in the year 1814 a young man, who to a visionary , mind, and a consequent want of employment, added - a most desperate af fection form young lady, quite too good for him, if business pursuits were alone considered, but just his match, if confiding affection, purity of mind, and , innocence of purpose, are the reward' of large en dowments, strict integrity, and . desire fur honest, competence, without the means of obtaining it. There was no more pleasing young man in the thriving village than Henry 'Bradford ' and every body agreed with his ,neightiors, that he was the most agreeable person and the beid educated aboUt. But he didoot Study law, he despised medicine and did not tak to the church ; he had frequently thought of "Meicluindixe," but that required a cap ital, which he could-not raise, and so he did not-go ahead though he was forever on the brink of- simile wonderful success, which he certainly would have secured, if he had only entered upon the ehter prise. Mary Carver evident'' loved Henry Bradford ; for „knowing that, excep t i n g his handsome trots; pleasing manners and good character , he ha noth ing to offer, she would not have been deaf the offers of so many young men, whose character and position rendered them desirable to the hinny.— wu.e offers were repeated so often, and hints so strong were given to Mr. and Mrs. Carver' that it was deemed proper after a serious deliberation in cabinet council, to - admonish their daughter that Henry was in no business, and was not likely to be in a way to maintain a family. Mrs_ Carver opened _the. _ dinlornacx Atith. the daughter, and, alter two orthree conierenms, rec treated under the laugh of Mary, who dechmxl that sheclid not doubt that Henry would one day be rich enough to take care of bidh, for be hell a dream that he should be. Mrs. Carver had no disposition to laugh in such a serious , mission , anddesire to be angry with her daughter. . Mary, however, knew that when her father came to negotiate, she would have to use othererguments than laughter, and therefore she admonished Heir ry of the approaching storm. Henry thought of it two or three days, an unusual time for him to de vote to any thing like his personal aifaits. At length the family was honored l a formal , offer from a clergyman in a neigh town. He 1 _rind su4s-d an offer was not to be alightecl_-...4.-..nerke.- ed. Old Mr. Carver took the subject ton heart, and Mrs. Carver gave 'her sheer muslin a double clear starching upon the very idea of her becoming moth er-in-law'to a minister. Mary pondered these things in her heart. She saw the improbability of Henry's ever attaining a situation that would Warrant mat rimony,. She was listening to her mott i e s r's account of his want of application to business, apparent disregard of attwning.competence, and of his utter lack of what is called common sense ; and the old ladv concluded her homily with a remark, that she believed Henry Bradford' would think more of a dream of wealth twice repeated, thant of the best prospects that ever presented for business prefer ment. “ Mother," said Mary, " Henry is not alool." "No," said Mrs. Carver, hesitatinglY, " be is not a fool, certainly." " Why, then, do you talk so of him 1". asked Mary " But he is coming now," continued the girL " Speak to hire, plainly, my child," Mid hirs.Car ver. Mary made no answer, for she was a little mor tified at the ludicrous turn which her Mother had given to Henry's rather dreamy proposition, though she had never heard him build any aistles in the air out of any such materials. Henry came with his usual pleasant humor, and sat down by Mary, and, after a few words, he per ceived that something was wrong.- ! - " Mary," said he, " have you been reading the Sorrows of Wordier r "No, Henry. but I have been listening to moth er's sorrows—her 'lamentations over 'yea. She says-" • Never mind what she says, Mary, as perceive it is not very good ; just listen to- what- 'I have to tell" " Well, what is it, Henry t I hope it it good." "Excellent, capital; it will be delightffil." " Do, then, tell me what it is." - " Why,-fast Sunday night I dreamed that--" " Dreamed .'" exclainied Mary, with a niost dolo rous sigh. 1 - " Aye, dreamed." Well, go on." " I dreamed that I had drawn ten diamond dol lars in the Plymouth Beach Lottery." " Wellorhat then r Why, I dreamed the same on Monday \ night, and on Tuesday night, and the number was 6, 4.3, Q. Well, I sent right to Boston on Wednesday, s and purcluised the ticket, and here it is : Yon \ keep it, Mary, and when I go up to Boston for the prize, you shall go with me. 1 Poor Mary smiled mournfully and reproimhitig,ly.

Day after day did Henry watch at the Post Of e, to read the first re of the drawing; but clay after day parsed wi t the desired - inforraa ., Com - At length one of the young men was heard t o remark, that Henry Bradford had shot out of the Post Office, as if,he had received some special inc telligence. , '‘ll " Mary." said Henry.
