"The wolves cry for blood French blood. Is it your wish to die together? Pardi! if it be between you two, am I to have no choice which one I deliver?

"Pardi! do you suppose I was going to leave you all alone like that, now?" replied Rosalie. "Light a candle, so I may see you," said Jeanne.
However, that's not the worst news; pardi, I wish it was! but I've been used like nobody,-for Monsieur Du Bois has had the baseness to go back to France without me." In conclusion, she assures me, as you prognosticated she would, that I shall be sole heiress of all she is worth, when Lady Orville.

Danton! have you nothing to say to this strange lady?" said Madame Grambeau, addressing her bird by name; "you must not neglect my friends, Danton Pardi!" "Bird of freedom, moulting moulting!" was the whimsical rejoinder. "Jackson! give us your paw, Old Hick Hick Hickory!"
