-• • Mme. Becamier's life was made of so
• any incidents that to_behrief in nue. -
4 ng a report of it is to ,be superfieial,
but still we venture the' attempt. ;At,
thenge of fifteen she marries M. Been- -
Mier, a. wealthy ,banker, aged 411. The
relation between them was a.strange
one, to say the least. It was character-'
ized by mutual kindnese and 'respect,
by parental - fondness - on - his! part, 'by
filial regard on herV so much ,so that
the theory hio• been maintained that
they were father .and' child=---a-Aheory
• which the memoirs'- abundantly refute.

her apositionat cop t, and because she,

ther excuse for his so doing is , that her,

the government.' Owing to Mme. Re
camieris -unpopularity- with Napoleon,
the government refuses to assist her bus-
band in his business straits, and cense-,
quently his fortune Suffers wreck. - The
change of circumstances following upon
this is. very nobly borne. During her
'banishment she :visits Rome, and there
'Canova makes a bust of her without her
knowledge a proceeding which she does
snot like. - Returning • to Paris at the
Restoration, she becomes acquainted
with the Duke of Wellington,,who
writes notes to her in miserable French,
and thinking to please her', says Of-Na

In the sick room of Mine. do 4tael she
makes
,: the acquaintance 'of Chateau
inland, an acquaintance - which finally
ripens into an intimacy that causes her
more joy and more unhappiness than
any other. For thirty years she is de
voted to hia happines. His correspon
'deuce with her is unstinted in amount
and affords an excellent opportunisy for
studying the inner life of this selfish,
irritable, exacting man of most undoubtl
ed genius. A second reverse of fortune
happening in 1819, Mme. Beearnier
leaves her husband and retires to the
Appaye-auk-Bois, and there, with brief
exceptions, spends the remainder of
H
her life. ere she gathers about her

The clergyman . who had excloosivo

wuz present, and he offered prayer. He
prayed fervently that the Lordwood
forgive the people of the North for the
wrong they lied done our sainted head,
that lie wood forgiv, of possible, the late I I
head uv the Federal government who
had opposed him and the glorious coz,
and of Divine mercy could stretch so
far that he wood forgive the Colonel uv

down the Saint who wuz L now ,in our

aboozed him• wiiu -iS - Ifoni- with ills and
partiklerly Morris GreeleY, who he this

blessins uv Heven might restArst up
on the city uv .Richmond, then upon
the balance uv Virginy, and_ afterward
ppon the rest uv the Southern States,
and he wound up with a fervent appeal
that the Ethitopians, wick coodent
Change their skins; might. see the error

After this the President received his

I sin not permitted to give mare uv.

oblige to appear Upolf the witness stand
in Court. • Here its a picture drawn,by

tc 1 . 11, (if t ill` pleasure of being.a witness,
e says : 1;
You are called to the stand and place
your hand upon a copy df the, Script
ures in sheepskin blinding, with across
on one side and none on the' other, to
acconfiuodate either variety of the Chris-.
tian faith. You are then arraigned be-'
fore two legal gentlemen, one-of whom
smiles at you blandly beyauss . you are
on IrMside,the other eyeing . you sav
agelyL4for the, opposite reason. The
gentleman who smiles proceedatdpurap
you of all you know, and having
squeezed all he wants out of iyouddeeen
tly hands you oveil to. the !other," who
proceeds to show you are entirely mis
taken in your stippositions, :that you
bare never seen anything you have
sworn to; that you never saw the de
fendant in your life; in short, that you
have committed direct perjury. He
wants to know if you have ever been in
State prison, and takes your denial with
the air of a man who thinks you ought
to have been there. Asks you all the
questions overagain in different ways,
and tells you with an awe inspiring
severity, to be careful 'what' you say.
-Ho - wants to know if he Understood you
to say so and so, and IWi its to know
whether you meant something else:
Havilig bullied and sear - son of your
wits, and convieted you' iii the eyes of
the jitry of prevarication, be lets you
go: By and by everybody yOu ,have
fallen out with is put on the stand, to
swear that you are the biggest scoundrel
they ever knew, and not to be believed
under oath. Then the opposing coun
sel) in summing up, paint§ your maid
photograph' to the jury, as a character
tit to be handed' down to time as the
type of infamy ; as a man who had
conspired against innocente and virtue,
and stood
_convicted on the attempt.
The Judge, in his charge, tells the jury
it they believe your testimony, &c.,

that there is even a judicial
doubt of' your veracity, and you go
home to your wife and family, neigh
