"Though I am as sure as you are of the doctor, or of M. Tripeaud, under present circumstances, we must not touch on the question of acting which will be sure to frighten them at first until after our interview with your niece. It will be easy, notwithstanding her cleverness, to find out her armor's defect.

"I have no doubt, aunt, of the bosom friendship of M. d'Aigrigny for our family: I have still less of the profound and disinterested devotion of M. Tripeaud; M. Baleinier is one of my old friends; still, before accepting these gentlemen as spectators, or, if you will, as confidants of our interview, I wish to know what we are going to talk of before them."

An old grudge long existing between them and a rival manufacturer's Baron Tripeaud laborers, fanned the flames.

"You hear, gentlemen?" said D'Aigrigny to the doctor and Tripeaud, with an affectation of profound stupor. "It surpasses all one could imagine!" exclaimed the baron. "Alas!" observed the doctor, benignantly, "the impulse is generous in itself but the mad little head crops out?" "Excellent!" said the princes.

"A man concealed in her bedroom!" cried the Marquis d'Aigrigny, raising his head with apparent indignation, which only covered a cruel joy. "A man! in the bedroom of Mademoiselle!" added Baron Tripeaud. "I hope this also was inserted in the report." "Yes, yes, baron," said the princess with a triumphant air. "But this man," said the doctor, in a hypocritical tone, "must have been a robber?

I am certain that this young girl may become a dangerous enemy for us," said the marquis, with a voice painfully broken into short monosyllables. "And, therefore, it is necessary that she may be rendered incapable of exciting further fear," responded Madame de Saint-Dizier, fixedly regarding the marquis. "Have you seen Dr. Baleinier, and the sub-guardian, M. Tripeaud?" asked he.

'That is not my business, answered M. Tripeaud; and, addressing his clerk, he added: 'Pay what is due for the week, and let him cut his stick. Father Arsene did cut his stick; that evening, he and his old wife suffocated themselves with charcoal.

Baleinier to see him at present." "Show this person in first," said the princess; "next when I ring the bell, you will beg Dr. Baleinier to walk this way: and, if Baron Tripeaud should call, you will bring him here also. After that, I am at home to no one, except Mdlle. Adrienne." The servant went out.

"Madame, you forget yourself!" cried the princess, becoming pale with rage. "Madame, I do not forget I remember, like other people; that is all. I had no relation of whom I could ask an asylum. I wished to live alone. I wished to enjoy my revenues because I chose rather to spend them myself, than to see them wasted by M. Tripeaud."

On the strength of his well-filled safe, mounted on his right of the candidate, Baron Tripeaud insults the poverty and political disfranchisement of the officer, who, after forty years of wars and hard service, is just able to live on a scanty pension Of the magistrate, who has consumed his strength in the discharge of stern and sad duties, and who is not better remunerated in his litter days Of the learned man who has made his country illustrious by useful labors; or the professor who has initiated entire generations in the various branches of human knowledge Of the modest and virtuous country curate, the pure representative of the gospel, in its charitable, fraternal, and democratic tendencies, etc.
