An Anecdote of the Paris Police
Previously to the year 1789,but at what
precise date I cannot say, the eity of Paris
possessed'as guardian Of its safety. and
chief minister of police, a wan of rate
talent and integrity. At • the same peri•
ud, the parish of St GeritiaiX, in the guar
ter of the Rue St. Antoine. had fur its
cure a kind, venerable old man, whose
life was *rain dome gird to both the
soul and bodies of his fellow creatures,
and whose; holy cninsititency and dignified
courage caused hint to beloved :by the
good and respected by even the most
mmudoued characters. One cold, dark
winter's night the bell at the old oure's
door was rung loudly, and he. although
in bed; immediately 'tiro° and opened the
dour, anticipating a suanuotis to some
sick ordyinp, bed.
A persoiraL•e, richly dressed, with his
remoras partly concealed by a large false
beard, stood outside. Addre,sing the
cure in a.courreous and-graceful manner,
he apologized for his unreasonable visit,'
which, as he said, the high reputation of
monsieur had ioduCed him to wake.
"A great and terrible, but' necessary
!and inevitable deed," he continued. "is to
he done. Time presses ; a soul about to
pass into eternity ithplores.your ministry.
If you come you must allow your eyes to
be bandaged, ask no questions and con
sent to act simply as spiritual consoler of
a dying woman.' If you refuse in aceoin:
puny use, no other priest can be admitted,
nod her spirit must pass alone . ",
After a indolent of secret prayef, the
cure answered, "I will go with yi.m.".
without asking any further explanation,
he allowed his eyes ibe'bindaged, and
leaned on the arm of his suspicious visitor.
They both l got into a coach, whose win
dows wereiiintuediately covered, by wood
en shutters, and then they drove oifrap.

Outing this time not . a single word had
been exchanged between theAravelers,
and ere they got out the stranger assured
himself that the bandage over his cum

• The minister .of religion invoked the
sublime promises of the gospel to soothe
her troubled sett!, and be succeeded.—
Her countenance, after a time, became
composed, she clas ied her bands in, fer
irent.pra)er, and then extended them to
ward her consoler. . -
As she did so, this cure perceived that
the'sleeve of her rote was stained with
blood' ,• . ' , -i t . , i
"My child," said he with a trembling
voice, "what is this ?"
"Father, at is a vin which they have
already opened, a the bandage, no
doubt was carelessly put on."

lii
- kerchief in it, then replaced the bandage,
concealed the stained handkerchief with
in fits vest, and whispered— .
' , Farewell, any dau jitter; take courage,
and have conthituce an God."
The half hour had expired, and , the
step of his terrible conductor was heard
approaching.
"I am ready." said the cure, and hay
in,g, allowed his eyes to be covered; he
took the arm of the Duke de —, and
lett the awful room, praying meanwhile
with secret fervor.
&rrived at the foot of the staircase, the
old man suoceedeti without his guide's
knowledge. iu slightly displacing the
thick bandage so as to adant a partial ray
of lamplight. Finding himself in ; the
carriage gateway, he manag ed to stumble ,
and fall, with both hands forward toward
a dark corner. The duke hastened to
raise him, both resumed their places in
the carriage, and after repassing threugh
the same tortuous route, the cure was set
down in safety at his own dour.
Withott one moment . ' delay, he called
his servant.
"Pierre," he said, "arm yourself with
a stick, and give we your support; I
must instantly go to the minister of po
lice."
Soon . afterward the. official, gate lwas
opened to admit the well known venera-ble pastor. •

minister, "a terrible deed will speedily

That same morning, at eight o'clock,
the minister of police entered the mire's,

"My friend," 'Said he, "I confess my
inferiority, you are able to instruct me in
expedients.'
"Saved !" cried the old man, bursting
into tears.
"Saved," said the minister, "and res

Within, the next twenty-four hours, by
an express under from the King, the Duke

of the kingdons.
The young, woman received all the care
which her preCarious state required ; and

Message from the Gateman
'F/XECIITIVE CIIAMBER,
Esithisucho, Feb. 12, 1863.
-To the Senate and Raise of Repreeentatioee of the
Uommonweedth of 4ennsitvania:
GENTLEMEN desire I to call your
attention to a subject of moment. When
the present infamous and God-condemned
rebellion broke out; Congress was not in
session, and the occurrence of 'such a
state of things nut having been seen in
former times, no adequate legislation had
been had to meet it. At the same time
—the life of the - country being at stake
—it appeared necessary that some means
should be taken to control the small band
of traitors in the loyal States, so as to
prevent them from, machinations which
might be iajurious:if not fatal, to thq na--
tional cause. Under these eircumatances,
the General Governmqnt resorted to the
system of military* arrests of daneerons
persons, and haviog.thus commenced act
ing under it, have continued (at long in
tervals in this State) to pursue it., The
Government of the United States acts di
rectly on individuals, and the State Exe
cutive has no authority or means to in
terfere with arrests of citizens of the Unit
ed States, Wade under the authority of
that Government. E very citizen of Penn
sylvania -is also h citizen of the United
States, and owes allegiance to them, as
well as (subject to the provisions of the
Constitution of ths United States) he
owes to Pennsylvania. , if be be unlaw
fully deprived of his liberty his only re
dress is to be : had, at the hands of the ju
diciary,. In such times as the present, it
is more than ever necessary to preserve
regularity in official action. Great efforts
have been, and are, perhaps, still being
made, by persona blinded orrill . disposed,
to throw us into a state of revolution;
that is to say, to create anerohy and con
fusion, and ultimately to bring about the
destruction of life and property among
na. Any irregular, much more illegal,
interference by your executive, with mat
ters which, by the Constitution, are not
entrusted to his cognizance, and especial
ify any such interference with the action
of the executive of the-United States or
with the functions of the judiciary, would
be, in the existing, crisis, emphatically.
dangerous, it would have a direct revoln
tionary tendency—in . tact, it would be to
commence a revolution. The courts, of
justice are open, and, no doubt, all perk
sooal wrong can be properly ;redressed in
due course of law,(
I do not know how many arrests of the
kind heretofore referred to have been
made in PennsylVania, as I have at no
time been privy to the making of them,
but 1 believe they have beenlfew. I was
under the impression that there would be
nu necessity for more of them, otherwise
I might have referred, to them in my an
nual message; but recent events have
shown that this impression was erroneous,
I deem it my duty.nuw to invite your at- I
Mention to the subject. '
/ The contest in ,which we are engaged
is one for the preservation of 'our own lib
erty and welfare. 'The traitora of the
South bate the great body of our people,
who are loyal, and hate and r bitterly de
:spice the few who are ready for subwis
skin. Unless the rebellion be effectually
suppressed, we most lose our pride of,
country, the larger pOrtion of our terri
tory, and the elements not only -of great
ness but of prosperity, and even of secu
rity- to,life, liberty 'art' property.• Not
withstanding all 'this, it is, I 'fear, an un
doubted truth that u few wretches among
Ili, false to our free and loyal traditions,
false to the' memory of their fathers, and
to the rights of their children; false to the
country which has given thr birth and,
protected them, on ly stopping, short of
the technical ;offence of treason, in the
very ruadnems of mischief are actively
plotting to betray us, to poison and mis
lead the minds of our people by treacher
ous misrepreaentations, and to so aid and
comfort the rebels that our 'fate may be
cither to abandon the free-North and be
come hangers on of , a Government found
ed in treachery, frond, 'and insane ambi
tion, or, at best, to
. distrolvtithe Union
under which we have prospered, and ,te
break this great and glorious country in-,
to fraements,_which will bo cursed by per
petual discords at hotue, and by the con
tempt and ill•usaee of foreign tuitions,
from which we shall e be too weak to vin
dicate ourselves. '
That sush offences should be'Attly pun
ished no good citizen can doubt; and that
proper legislation by Congress fa required
fur that purpose, can , be as little doubted.
Whether such legislation should include
a suspension of the writ of habeas corpus
in any and what parts of the country, is
a question which belongs, exclusively to
the legislative authorities of the United
States,' Who, under the. Constitution, bare
the right to determine it. • The great
.writ ought not to he iuspendsd,unleSs.to
the wisdom of Congress. the prosent.ne
cessity shall appear. ,to. be urgent! ,
• •
Therefere, I recommend the passage of
e' joint' cesoltition, , earnestly l'equesting
that Congress shall forthwith pass laws
defining and punishing offences of te;
cliilas above referred to ) and providing for
thio faiiind speedy trial by an impartial
ju'y, of ;persons charged with such offen-
Ce 4 in the loyal and s undisturbed States,
so
_pat the guilty may justly suffer and
this innocent be relieved.
