MAD ANNETTE.
3fost persons have paused for an hour or
two on the road between Paris and London
to lounge round the quaint old sea-port town
of Dieppe. We, at least, did give so much
time to the port as was nevessary to note
these its peculiarities before wending our on
ward. way to awl- wit did -even- more
than this. Securing the guidance of a gray
haired hanger-on of the church, see immnted
up many foot-scooped steps, and through an
atmosphere containing as much dust as
oxygen to the topmost platform of the roof.
The view was worth the trouble. Right be
low the tower market men and' women, in
their blue and red elt,thes, WONc herr: l 'ing
hither and thither over the place, and filling
the clear fresh morning air with their chaff
ering cries. From a thicket of black masts
and cordage r. se the eliiiinwys of the packet
that had carried us over the kindly 4en
which sea spread blue arid placid till it was
lost in the curve of the earth. The tall
cones of the castle seemed to belong to an
other age, and made me think for a moment.
whether I wore the colors of the Bearnais or
of )layenne—no light matter when to wear
the wrong ones was death. But the cicerone
recalled me from the past by calling atten
tion to a pick-and-span new house, in aquar
ter where bright red walls and green shutters
were more frequent than the older yellow
plaster, and exclaiming, with civic exulta-
Lion, "See there the house of the Prefect I"
" And look there, Martin," cried one of
my companions, "down there between the
trees in that sort of close. There's that
crazy woman who was at the porch when we
came in."
" Ah I it is mad Annette that you regard
down there, monsieur. Yes, she is truly
droll ; but it is sail, it is very sad that, if
monsieur knew the history."
" A story I By all means ; out with it, old
Cockywas
0 Comment, monsieur ?"
"Jack, don't be absurd. If you would
have the obligingness to recount the story it
would give us much pleasure to hear."
" But below, monsieur means to say, with
out doubt."
But wo all agreed that we were very well
off where we were. The sun was not too
hot : we were out of the immediate influence
of the smells : each had a preparation of to- ,
bacco to consume. Sd, one sitting on the top
step of the stairs, another on a perilous piece
of balustrade, and a third on the ancient lead,
our guide began his story of the mad woman.
I can not pretend to repeat it with half the
vividness of the original narrator. It must
lose much in translation ; more from want of
accent and gesticulation. The old man was
really no mean " contour."
As we had seen, the poor mad woman was
not at all dangerous; she never did any
harm. There was no reason at all why she
should not bo allowed the liberty she had.
She had a friend—the husband, indeed,
ofhor sister—who was verygood to her, and
gave her a home and food, and elothing.:,And
mangy were ready to help her, for they anew
her sad story. Buthow did "she become mad ?
Yes, that is the important part of - the tale:
Twenty years ago she wile not mad at all :
she was • the prettiest, merriest, brightest
girl in all Dieppe. And as old Poehon, her
. failier, was One of tilt most nourishing fish
irmen in_ Jill the Quartier' do 'Pellet, it was
hardly necessary to, say , that Annette and
her sister Marie were very popular with all
the lads, , awl were much envied by all these
damsels whose eyes were less, bright ; whosp"
skin was less clear, and whose ear-rings Were
less massive. Ainrio was soon .disposed of to
the worthy Pierre, who had a,.sholi, ,the
town, and.whe was still the gejierous main
it iner ot.his afflicted sister. Bat Annette,
initial to the confusion of all' the sturdy
Dieppois, no fnyor to any one of
them: lot that, she was. inclined
,to

r'
am sorry to say, was an Englishman. This
Carroterre was huge of body and strong g
limb ; and on the occasion of the periodical
visits of the brig in which,_ ho served tb
Dieppe, made great havoc among the hearts
of the fisherwomen. At last he paid peculi
ar and special attentions to Annette Pochon,
and met with nothing like a rebuff. The
old guide could well remember how he had
seen the pair strolling on the bench—he big
and burly, with light-brown hair knotted on
his round head in thick close-cropped curls,
and brown shiny skin, towering above the
smaller race of Frenchmen she, with little
trim figure, fresh and clean in blue woolen
skirt and starched cap, with great black
eyes that were always meeting the gray
ones of the perfidious Briton and never said
anything but I trust you." He also re
membered how once, when Carter's ship was
expected in the port, Annette would watch
on the quay for hours ; and how, when the
good brig was really within a few yards of
land, and but for some almost miraculous
mishap would in n few moments be safely
moored in still water, she ran to her home,
and hid herself in the inner room in maiden
bashfulness. And now Carter was mate of the
brig, and gave his word that when he should
next come to Deippe he must return with
Annetto as his with to his own land, and
that she should bo taken to see his mother
and his home, as well as the wonders of
London, and that then the locality of their
future abode. might be.. decided .upon. In
three weeks he might be expected in Dieppe
again.
Old Pochon affirmed, quite confidently,
" That is a man in whom we may put our
trust : that face can not be the face of a liar.
Ile says, "Annette, do you love me with all
your heart ?" She says, " Robert, what
shall Ido to prove my love." " When I
come to fetch you, shall you be very happy,
and shall you be ready to come to me direct
ly ?" " When you come to fetch me, when
ever it may be, I will spring forward to meet
you, and no one shall ever make me distrust
you.,,
If her own father had confidence, what
availed the fears of the neighbors ? The old
guide had never liked that Carreterre, bid
what was he hut a grumbler ! Things must
take their course without interference. And,
in truth, nobody had any thing very valid to
urge against the match.
It is not difficult to imagine the excited
eagerness with which Annette looked, for
ward to the expiration of the allotted pekiod.
Never was there a more joyous bride. No
letters passed between the parties; indeed it
was improbable that either of them could
write. At the end of the third week the
collier by which Carter was to have traveled
as a passenger appeared in the port, but no
Carter was on board : nor had the collier's
skipper lied any dealings with any man an
sworing-to the -faithless mate's description.
After the first shock, Annette refused to al
low that she was in the least de 4 ;reedoubtful.
Of course he would come ; of course some
unfurseen hindrance had kept him from
cianing as he had proposed. Her friends
were nut sanguine, but she would permit no
questioning. A week went by : Annette
began to look a little sad. Another week :
blue lines ruse round her dark eye's. A third :
and Annette moved and spoke and looked
in such a miserable, apathetic, lack-lustre
way that all her friends grew seriously
frightened for her health. t•l'he would stay
up and down the beach and the port for
hours and hours together, always declaring
Unit she was looking for her Robert—always
quip sure that he would come—only let
them give him time ; she trusted him.
So two months went by. And though,
indeed, on the one subject of her faithless
lover's return she was then already crazed,
no one regarded her state as being worse
than one of fresh and unhealed grief—n state
remediable by lapse of time and new associa
tions. " Poor girl!" said the neighbors ;
and Annette received their pity Very kindly
and very impossibly, only saying. I know
he will come to fetch me ; and when I see
him I shall go to Mai." And of course
Curter never came: be was never seen
or heard of at Dieppe again. And now more
than four months had gone by. Annette's
wanderings became longer and more dreamy.
Nothing done by her father or her friends
availed to break her sorrowful stupor. Back
ward and forward on the shore of the much
sounding sea she walked, waiting for the
vainly-expected summons of her lover.
Up to this time she could not be said to be
mad : she was only very sorrowful and very
fond of solitude But now came the re
workable part of the story.
" Messieurs probably know the environs
of Dieppe ?" said the narrator.
:risTever in the lace till last night."
" Ah, trt. 'But you can imagine to
yourselves t appearance of the coast which
lam about to describe. Along to the west,
down there, the bench is sliCWing shingle
and slit) y masses of chalk under the cliffs.
At low-tide long tracks of rock are discov
ered stretching out to sea, divided in all di
rections by wide, ragged fissures. Very
green and very slippery are those tracks of
rock. One day I had occasion to go a little
journey in that direction, and, as the tide
would serve, I determined to go along the
beach. It was a bleak day -in December ;
the sky was very black, and I had to walk
steadily and briskly to keeß ) out the cold.
What did I see as I turned rotted one of the
headlands of the cliff? What but Annette

sielf. She will be • terribly frozen. She
Will be terribly frozen. She should be kept
at home: she should not be allowed to go
ont. I must speak to old Pochon. Now I
will mount the edge of-the cliff, and seelf
she is still on the shore. It was just about
here that she was,when t paSsed below two
hours ago. .1 turned quickly from the road,
messieurs, and in-a. moment I was on the
brink, with the great shelving chalk cliff at
my feet. The tido had now quite gone down,
and the surf seemed a long way from me.
Green rocks, and sand, and pools stretched
away for many, many yards. Was Annette
there? Yes, sitting on a white fragment of
clitl below me. So 'stood watching the fair.
prospect and the sea stretching out as we see ,
it now; then it Was dark and troubled, and
white waves broke on the furthest ledges of
rock. As I gazo down at Annette, sudden
ly she rises : she springs forward with aloud
cry of delight, runs rapidly across the high
est bank of shingle and sand, and waits an
instant where the rocks begin. What does
she -see? My thoughts j ump directly to the ob
ject of her desire. is there any sign of the
coming husband? Is there' a craft in sight
that the girl recognizes? Nothing. Two
or three fishing-boats close in shore—boats
that I know well—no boats that have come
from England. Nobody on the shore, and
nothing at sea. If Annette sees anything it
is in imagination. eyes are fixed on her.
She advances, swiftly making her way to--
ward a tall rock on her right hand. She is
agile and sure-footed. She stops over the
chasms between the rocks. She stands poised
for a moment on a weedy ledge; she is half
hidden in a pool. She has fallen. No; she
is rushing on again. She has reached the
tall rock. With hands and knees she clamb
ers to the summit, throws her arms wide
open, gives a loud, shriek, and clasps—noth
ing—nothing but air. She starts again—
starts off to the left, messieurs, looking no
bigger than the men and women you see in
the place down below. I see her, and now
up, now down ; sometimes splashing the
water from some rock basin—taking long
steps from rock to rock ; sometimes falling;
on again in a moment. Soon she stands
still again, once more opens her arms, gives
another 'loud cry of disappointment, and
harries off, this time time direct to the sea.
Should I have tried to get down ? By the
cliff before me, impossible with life. 1 stood
looking—l could not take my eyes off. Be
fore Annette now a ridge of rock rises out of
the shore, with an almost straight course
along the top, so that were the last rock
meets the advancing tide there is a fall of
some height. She runs—runs—runs ; she is
close to the sea ; she will stop ? No ! She
falls: I see her no more. She wilt be hurt
by the fall. The tide will mount, and she
can not move: she will bovdrowned I
`• Before I had thought half this, messieurs,
I was far on my way to the nearest path that I
knew from the cliff to the shore. I ran
as fast as Annette. In five minutes I was
down and on the rock whence the poor girl
had fallen. Ah ! it was sad to see. Annette
was lying in the moist sand, quite still,
a, one who is dead, the height of a man be
low me. And her long black hair was all
matted round her beautiful face ; and one of
her little brown feet a shell had made a cruel
cut, front which the red blood trickled out.
into the sand ; and twin's or thrice the harsh
waves had crawled over her, she was all wet
and cold. Air, messieurs, it was sad, sad,
sad ! What 'could I do ? Was she drowned '1
Ldo not know. I lifted her up.; I carried
her in my arms, prow child I about a half a
mile to a cottage in the hollow were the cliff
sinks down. I tried to run ; i ndeed I made the
best haste I could, messieurs. - Might not her
life depend upon my speed ? Under the re
medies known to the good women of the
house the patient gradually recovered.
Warmth and life came back together. Then
I was very thankful, for I yearned over that
poor motherless, miserable child. She came
to herself: but no, I can not say that—she
has never since come to herself. But she
lived, and she began to mutter in a low,
Plaintive voice, " Yes, my well-loved, I see
thee. Thou art come now to fetch me, and
I go to thee without a moment's delay. Stay
fer me, my darling I I am close to thee.
What ! thou art farther off? Only wait
and I will reach thee. Thou beckonest ;
am coming—l am coming." So she wanton,
messieurs : and never since has she said any
thing else.
" I wont back to Dieppe ; I informed the
old Po'chon. For weeks Annette lay in a
fever at 01 , 1 mother Callot's ;- for weeks rav
ing (always on the same subject,) for weeks
more too weak to walk. Since that day she
has boon quite silly. She never scorns to
know any one, or to care for anything, ex
cep once. Yes, once sho did seem to have
some feeling-of real things : that was when
her dead baby was taken away from her.
Then she wept for a little time, messieurs."
And two big round tears rolled down the
old man's wrinkled cheeks as ho spoke.
" What a threnody 1" cried Jack ; though
I don't believe he had upderstood half of
it.
And you never heard 'any more of the
man Carter ?"
" Never have I seen him since, Sir. Re
was not likely to come to Dieppe. If Ido
see'hirn, I will—but what am I, Sky., The
good God will punish him. And perhaps
Annette may yet be healed."
Annette was at the porch again.
Looking out on the merry world with
a mechanical, Meaningless-smile, she was
seated on a. rude stool under the shadow of
tho churchwall.' The old guide touched her
band and , said„” Good-day, Annette!" No

Joe. wines the Actor.
The noted be. Haines died in 1701. He
was a strang'e,Compeurid of opposition. A
buffoon, swindler, scholar, linguist, mounte
bank, fortune-teller, A. M. of Trinity Col
lege, Cambridge, and a comic actor of great
humor, 'with ,an irresistible pushing face
tiousness, which introduced him not only to
the acquaintance, but the familiarity of per
sons of the lirat; rank. He contrived to get„
himself employed on the staff of two dis
tinguished statesmen, Sir Joseph Willamsen
and the Duke of Buckingham, but his con
stitutional impudence and laxity of speech
marred his - pFonrotion in diplomacy. Ho
passed himselt off in France for a count, and
became a general favorite in society for a
time, from his fluency in the language and
incomparabledaneing. Through life he was
up and down a pauper or a spendthrift, roll
ing in ephemeral wealth or without a penny
in his pocket. His great forte seems to have
been in speaking prologues and epilogues,
particularly Wes° written by himself. But
he was ever a licentious dog, loose in morals
and without riligion. Once ho played off a
practical joke t6n a parson, by pretending to
appoint him chaplain to the players, which
led to some unseemly equivoques. The par
son happened to have a son, a member of the
thrasonical family, a talking bully, and, of
course, a coward ; but he avowed publicly to
avenge the trick put upon his father. Ac
cordingly, he watched Joe from rehearsal
one day, and swaggering up, desired lihn to
draw. Joe demanded to know why, and
they adjourned to a tavern that he might be
told. Joe, receiving the information, con
sented at once, but said, "I mu a religious
man, and must have five minutes to say my
prayers." He then retired to the next room,
and in a loudlone, distinctly heard by his
challenger, expressed his repentance for
killing seventeen persons in duels, and con
cluded by asking forgiveness for being
obliged to t - 14 this unhappy gentleman to
the Rat. The other, looking on his fee-sim
ple of life as not worth a moment's purchase,
ran down stairs, and left Joe to pay the
reckoning. Quinn told Garrick the follow
ing story of him : In James the Second's
time, when Rornanism was a sure road to
preferment, he, amongst others of higher
rank and more weight, professed himself a
convert, and gave out that the Virgin had
appeared to Min. Lord Sunderland sent for
Heins, and questioned him as to the truth of
his conversion, awl whether he had really
seen the Virgin. "Yes, my Lord; I assure
you it is a fact." flow was it, pray?"—
"Why, as I lay in bed the Virgin appeared
to me, and said,' Arise Joe." "You lie, you
rogue," exclaimed the Earl; '`if it had re
ally been the Vir in hecielf, she would have
said Joseph ,if it had only been out of respest
to her husband." Haines, upon his re-ad
mission to the theatre, after his return from
the Church of Rome, acted "Bayes," and
spoke his recantation prologue in a white
sheet, with a burning taper in his hand.
The prologue is printed in Tons Brown's
works. Among Toni BroWn's "Letters
from the Dead to the Living" are three long
ones upon Joe Haines to his friends at Wells'
coffee house in Covent Garden, but they con
tain little or no theatrical information, and
aro duller than might have been expeeted.—
Joe Haines was buried in that favorite the
atrical necropolis, the church-yard of St.
Paul's Covent Garden, but we never heard
that any of his aristocratic friends erected a
monument to his memory.
Habits
Habit iq the effect of custom ; the power
of doing anything' acquired by the frequent
repetition oethe same action. Habits are
generally formed in childhood and youth,
and may be either good or bad.
When I see children unmannerly and
rude, I am quite sure that they will lack
manners when they become older. Their
bad habits will not leave them when they
become men and women. -"0 the dreadful
power of habit !" exclaimed a professing
Christian, bursting into tears, and confessing
his sin. In . an unguarded 'moment he had
uttered an oath. "I began to swear when a
child," he continued, "and I kept on swear
ing until the grace of God arrested me ; and
now, even now, this wicked habit steals upon
me when lam not thinking." Sweareri in
Childhood and youth—and I am sorry to say
there are many—make the violent svireareis
in manhood.'

'PATIENCE: • " • '• •
• There was never more need of patienep
tharr•nOw. The ..AMerican people.are psg
ik i ihrough. a ;fearful atrial of stifferw
ihg and blood. It.ia by. no mean easy' to'
wait, doing meanwhile the Calm routine 41 4 ty
of citizen life. .Yet that duty is all impor
tent, And has its place in •the grand stun of
patriotiC duty just now. The, struggle that
is before us is a t,Ctriblepe. We do wrong
to yield to the assurances 4 enthusiastic men
that we are just at the end.' There is not
enough reason to believe that we aro so near
the end. It is a great mistake to teach that
patriotism requires men to receive and be
lieve all the good news, and reject and dis
believe all the bad news. It is infinitely bet
ter to fear bad results and hear good news,
than to .- expect 'good results and hear bad
news. We should always be taught toguard
against the worst contingency. It is safer.to
hesitate before receiving as true either very
good or very. bad news. During the past
two weeks they have been wisest and the
most true patriots who have waited in pro
found-anxiety, neither unduly depressed nor
elated, weighing carefully the intelligence
as it came, andsifting the small amount of
truth out of the large amount of words and
falsehood which have come to us.
We have made no attempts to analyze the
news, for such attempts were vain, and there
was danger of misleading our readers, who
are accustomed to place a great deal of con
fidence in such deductions as we may think
it safe to make. We counsel now the ut
most calmness and patience. The overland
route to Richmond is onb of immense diffi
culty, one which we have been assured, on
high military authorty, would always be
found hazardous and costly. Ger eral Grant„
! doubtless, counted the cost before he under
took it, and has already intimated his deter
initiation to adhere to the line, if it takes all
summer. Certainly the people may take
example from the patient tenacity of pur
pose thus indicated. We may have imme
diate results from a renewal of the battles, or
We may have no results for some time to
come. \Ve may hear of the most brilliant
success, or we inay'hear of reverses. Let no
man be ashamed to reserve his judgment in
these times, whatever be the complexion of
the news, and let all possess their souls in
patience. We have raised a grand army ;
we have an Administration that has evinced
great anxiety in the selection of Generals to
suit their views of the necessity of the occa
sion ; our soldiers have already fought heroi
cally, arid, in the battles to come, no one
doubts they will fight as the Army of the
Potomac lies al ways fought. Patience, then,
till we have the end of this present waiting.

Fort Hamiltonat i l ork was the thea

eckiiki:ort the

The gun was, first loaded with the regular
charge of powder—one hundred pouids—a
blank cartridge, and fired amid the'applause.
of the spectators: The report was not loud
er than that of a ten-pounder Parrott loaded
with solid shot, nor was it near so shrill.
Probably it did not create AO great a concus
sion of the 'atmosphere and could not be
heard so far. On examining the monster to
see the effect, it was noticed that it had only
deigned to roll itself back disdainfully aboUt
two feet. The air was sulphurous for. A con
siderable distance around It.
This time the "big_ fellow," Wft3 loaded
with fifty pounds of powder and a solid shot
weighing one thousand and eighty pounds.
The shot was driven six hundred or eight
hundred yards, when it dropped in the bay,
ricochetted two or three times, knocking up
flashes of spray as large as ship in full sail
and twice as high, and finally disappeared
in the water. On examining the gun after
this discharge it was found to have moved
on its carriage just enough to show that it
knew how to work and Work easy.
=I
The final trial yesterday was by far the
most interesting and important of all that
preceded it. Great impatience for the result
was manifested by the spectators. A heavy
concussion of the .ground as well as the
atmosphere was now looked for, and there
was just enough of anxiety for the safety of
the giant, who was now become a pet among
those who were not familiar w:th its pow
ors as,to lend the additional charm of excite
ment to the interests hitherto felt The gun'
had now in a full charge of ono hundred
pounds of powder and a I,UBU pound ball.
At length it was loaded, and it was an
nounced that the fuse was about to he fired.
Every one rushed out of the way, and many
took shelter behind the redoubts of the fort.
The fuse hissed and flamed, but while all
waited breathlessly for the flash it only turn
ed out to bo a flush in the pun." The fuse
failed. An officer then went up, who must
have had great confidence in the gun, and
snapped the cap and off went the big gun.
The report was very little louder than the
one which immediately preceded it. There
was no perceptible concussion of the ground,
and indeed very little of anything to lead
you to think that the greatest gun known to
exist had then been fired. The shot whirled
through the air from the angle of twenty
five degrees at which the gun was elevated,
and after describing a beautiful arc, which
was visible to the naked eye, dropped into
the water about four miles off. The noise
made by the collision of the ball and the air
the flight of the former was like the wail of
a giant. It was something like the peculiar
noise made by a hurricane passing through
a ship's rigging. It was the scream of the
eagle. The volumn of spray thrown up by
the ball after its contact with the water was
so great that we could not see whether it
ricochetted or not, though many said it did.
On examining the effect on the gun it was
discovered that this time the giant was foam
ing a little at the mouth, the smoke of the
burnt poWder still oozing from the muzzle.
lle had consented to roll himself back five
feet, but in other respects was just us before,
The gun was now tested. The range is to
be tested some future day ; but at the pro
per elevation, and with one hundred and
twenty-five pounds of powder, it is expect
ed to be between five and six miles.
This world is to you a strange inn, and
ye are like a traveler who has a bundle upon
his back, and a staff in his hand, and his
foot upon the door threshold. Go foritard
in the strength of your Lord, with your face
toward him who longeth mere for a sight of
you than ye can do for him. If ye knew
the welcome that waiteth ye when yo come
home ye would hasten your pace; for ye
shall see your Lord put up his own holy
hiind to your face, and wipe all tears from
your eyes, and I trow that then ye shall
have some joy of heart. -
