a traveller's tale.
The diligence Irom Paris to Chalons stopped
one evening just after dark, some* miles beyond
the little town of Rouvray,*to set down an Eng-
lish lady and her child at a lonely-poadside aub
urge. Mrs. SIár.tinspected to find a carriage.
to take her to' the Chateau de Senart. a
distance of sótne leagues, whither she was re-
l>airing on a visit but was Wd that it. had not yet
arrived. The landlady, a tai!, coarse-lookirtg
woman, who showed her into the vast hall, that
served átóhice as a sitting room and kitchen,'ob-
served that theToads were so muddy at nigh^
there was . little chance ef her friend arriving
before morning. " You- had better, therefore,''
she said, " make up your mind to sleep here.—
We have a good rootd to offer v<>u ; and yóu wrll
also be much more comfortable between a
pair of clean sheets* than knocking about in our
rough Gountry, especially as your dear child ap
pears sickly/'
3$rs. Martin, though much tatigued by her
iyrhesitated. A good pj^hu rest was éer-
a tempting prospect; but she felt so eoir
fideiit that her friends would not neglect her,
f ' at after a moujent she replied, Mterrk vm
rr Jame, I will sit up fi>r an hour or so—it is tioi
late, and the carriage, «aay come, afosr all. If
it should nut, f «hail be glad of yonr room -
which yo.i may prepare ior me at any rate.'"
The hostess, who seined anxiotiFs that her
gnest sh.mfd not rem tin in the great mm, sug-
gested that- a fire might be ma le above ; but
^Vtrs. M. found herself sf comfortable -where she
was—a pile <>f faggots was blazing on the vast
that she declined at first to move. fl;r
d «.rjfjtSr; vaJ>o^ft five years of age, soon went to
sleep in her lap ; and she found that whilst her
ears were anxiously waiting for the roll of car-
riage wheels, her eyes occasionally closed, and
slumber began to make its ihsiltiuus approach-
t?s.
In or W to prevent herself irorn giving way.
she endeavored to direct tier attention to the ob-
jects arou:td her. The apartment was rast, and
lighted more by the glare of the fire than by the
dirty candle stuck into a filthy tin candlestick,
that stood on one of the long tables. Two or
tiiree huge beams stretched across half way up
th*3 walls, leaving a space filled with flitting sha
doWs above. Front these depended a rusty gun

couking utensils, «fee., There were very few
signs that the house was much visited, tho&gh a
pile of empty wine bottles lay in one corner.—
The landlady sat at tume distance from the fire-
place with her two sons, who laid their heads
together and talked in whispers. '
Mrs. Martin began to tefel uneasy. Tho idea
entered her mind that she had fallen into a re-
sort of .Epftbei* ; and the words " (Tsi eZ/e." (it
is*she,)wntch was all she heard of the whisper-
ed conversation contributed to*alann her. The
dour leading into the road was left ajar; and
for a moment she. felt an inclination to start up
and escape, on foot. But she was far fmm any
other habitation and if the pedple of the ft#u
«e&iljt entertained any evii designs, her attempt
woold only precipitate the catastrophe. So shi
resolved < u patience, but listened attentively for
the approach of her friends. All she heard,
was the whistling of the wind, and the dashing
of the rain, which hád begun to fall just atte
her arrival.

The hostess, in a surly, sleepy tone, told her
eldest son to serve the gvntleman ; and then, ad-
dressing Mrs. Martin, said :
"You see yourlriends will not c¿ me, and you
are keeping us up to no purpose. You had bet-«

Avhich elicited a kind of shrug of contempt.
The red-haired man finished off his buttle of
wine, and then said :
" Show me a room, good woman—I shaij
sleej> here to-night."
Mrs. Martin thought that as he pronounced
these words he casta protecting glance lowaids
t,er ; aud she felt less repugnance a' the idea of
passing the night in that hóuse. When, there-
fore, the red-haired man. ai\£ -i polite bow, went
up stairs, she said, that as , ^ trie.nds had not
arrived, they might as well snow her to a bed-
r"y,a* , ,
" Í thought it would come to .hat at last," said
the landlady. " Pierre, take the lady's trunk up
stairs."
in a lew minutes, Mrs. Mai' i-. found herself
aione in a spacious room, with a large fire bur-
ning on the hearth: Her first care after putting
the child to bed, was to examine the dimr. it
closed only by a latch. There was no bolt in-
side. She looked round lor something to barí i
cade it with, and perceived a heavy chest oi
drawers. Fear gave strength. She halt lifted,
hatl pushed it against the door. Not content
with this, (the seized a table, to increase the
I strength of her defence. Tne leg was broken,
[ and when she touched it, it fell with a crash to
tkil floor. A Ung echo went sounding through
of
tag of the vvi.td over the roui, and the pattering'
of rain against tne window, panes. As he^ex-
citement ditninishtKl, the fatigue—which hact
been forgotten—began to make itself felt, and
-he resolved to undress and go to bed.
Her heart leap id into'her throat. For a mo-
ment she seemed perfectly paralysed. She had
undressed and put out the candle, when she ac
cidently dropped her watch. Stopping to pick
it up, her eyes involuntarily glanced towards the
hud. A great mass of red hair, a hand and a
gleaming knife, were revealed by the light of
the lire. Aiter the first moment of terrible a
iarm, Iiér presence of mind ceturned. She felt
that she had berselfcut off all r.eans of escape
by the door, and was left entirely to her own
resources. Without uttering a cry, but tremb-
ling in every limb, the poo|; woman got into the
bed by the side of tier child. Anidea—a plan—
had suggested itself. It had flashed through l^er
brain like lightning. It was the only chance left.
Her bed was so disposed that the robber could
only get beneath it by a narrow aperture at the
head wjthout making a noise; and it. was proba-
ble that he would choose, Irom prudence, this
means of exit. There was no curtains in the
so Mrs., Martin, whh terrible decision and
noiseless energy, made a tunning knot in her
silk scarf, and held it poised over the aperture by
which her enemy was to make his appearance.
She had,resolved to strange 4i i m in de felfee of
her mvn life and that of her chi d.
The position was an aw.ul one; and probably,
had she b en able to direct her attention to the
surrounding circumstances, she might have given
way to her fears: and endeavored to raise the
nouse by screams i he i >e on the hearth—•un-
attended to had fallen abroad, and now gave only
a dull, sulien light, with an occasional bright
gleatn. Every object in the vast apartment
showed with a restless motion. Now and then
a mouse auvancd stealthily along the floor, but,
startled by some movement udder the bed, -vent
scouring back in terror to its hole. The, child
breatned steadily in-its unconscious repose; the
mother endeavored also to imitate slumber, but
the man under the bed, uueasy in his position,
couid not av.dd occasionally making a slight noise
Mrs. Martin was occupied only with two ideas
First she reflected on the extraordinary delusion
by which she had been led to see enemies in the
people of the house and a friend in the red hair-
ed ma ; aud secondly, it struck her that, as he
could tear no resistence from a woman, he might
push aside the chairs that were in the way, re-
gardless of the noise, and thus avoid the snare
mat was laid lor kim. Once eveu she thought
that, whilst her attention was strongly directed to
one spot, he had made his exit, and was leaning
over her; but she was deceived by a flickering
chadow on the opposite wall. In reality there
vwus no danger that he would compromise the
success oí his sanguinary enterprise; the shrieks
of a victim,put on its guard,might alarm the room.
Have y.m ever stood h ur alter hour with your

—the tire had nearly burnt out. Her dizzy eyes
could scaiceiy see the floor, as she bent with
fearfoi attention over the head of the bed—the
terrible nouse hanging, like the sword of Dam

thought, "if he delay his appearance until the

Kossuth.
Whatever n\ay be thought of Koss&fh and
his doctrines, he utterly repudiates intertenlion;
he has been charged with propagating this doc-
trine by the press almost universally, but denies
,t in round terms.
The extracts which'we give below, while
they set forth his sentiments on thlá pfliftt, are
distinguished for their ingenuity and eloquence.

independence, freedom, and prosperity.
The following argunient is both forcible and
ingenuous:
II the European nations succeed, then they
must remember that in tile struggle for indepen

succeeded to establish your independence ; still
you have abandoned Europe in that hour of its
struggle tor those principles upon which your
own future rests—they will, remember tbat you
have not even thrust the weight of a protest into
the. scale, where the laws of nations were weigh-
ed, and Europe will isolate itself from you in the
days of its happiness because you have isolated
yourself from Europe in the days of its adversi-
ties. Whereas, on the contrary, if we in our
struggle, succumb by want of your operative
sympathy, then you will beconio entangled in
difficulties, but by no m'eans will be able to avert
a war.
The despots victorious over Europe will be

TOM MOORE.
A singly paragraph published in our foreign
news on Sunday lias, no doubt, stirred up the
deepfoundrof feeling in the hearts ef many of
our readers. Tom Moore is dead! His soul
has forsaken its earth.y tenement, and'fled to
those celestial regions whi< h are the poet's des-
tined home. . Hi harp is broken; and its strings
forever hushed. With him the last link is sev-
ered that remained to connect the present-time

worth, Coleridge and Southey. We believe
that Rogers and Leigh Hunt still live, but they
have never fi led eo large a space in the public
eye, oi claimed so'great a share of the literary
history of the age. The death of Moore has
broken the chain, and the task of recounting the
events of his long career must dfevolve on one of
his successors of a later generation.
Moore was born in Doublin on the 28th of
May, 1780, and w«s consequently seyenty-two
years of age at tha time" of his death. His lité,
rary career commenced with the beginning of
this century with the publication of a translation
of the Odes of Anacreon. These were succeed-
ed by a series of poems written under the.;
of Liliie, wnich, uijfwúlisiandirij
suhtte'iicentiousiiess that pervades them, have
etajned a certain popularity by the "mellifluous-
ss of their versification, and their undouoted
poetic merit. In 1806, he visited America, and
on his return published a volume which is not
more favorable to us than thot-e ot' otfeer English
tourists. In his poetry, too, hoi made Us the tar*
get for his keen shalts of wit, though his works
abound with allusions which prove that his so-
journ in this Country was not destitute ot agree-
abie episodes. Out ot his work on America a
difficulty arose with Mr. Jeffery, of the Edin
butgh Re* few, which nearly resulted in a duel,
aud afterwards he chaile: ged Lord Byron on ac-
count ot some remarks of the latter in his'Eng-
lish Bards aiid ¡Scotch Reviewers.' Their re-
conciliation aud subsequent friendship aré mas-
ters within the knowledge of all.
We cannot ol course do more in this brief
article tuan barfely enumerate the works which
have flowed from Moore's prolific pen. Fróm
1811 to 1818 he pi oduced the "Blue Stocking,"
iutj#rcepted Letters, or tlie-Twopenoy Post Bág,'
The Fudge Family i.n Paris, his weil known and
charming series of sacred Songs, duets and trios,
the music to which was composed and selected
by himseif and Sir John Stevenson, and lastly
Lnjla Kookh. Had he nevjer written anything
