"Go, my dear Antoinotto," tho king had said to his queen, in his pleasant way, and with his good-natured smile 'go to Poris, in order to preparo a pleasnro for my good people. Show them our children, and receive from them thoir thanks for tho happinees which you havo given to mo and to them. "I will not go with you, for I wish that you should bo tho solo re cipient of tho enthusiasm of tho peoplo and thoir joyful acclamations. I will not share vour triumph, but I shall oxporionco it in doublo mcasuro if you enjoy it alone. Go, therefore, my bo loved Antoinotto, and rojoico in this happy hour." Mario Antoinette did go, and she did rejoice in tho happiness of tho hour. Whilo riding through Paris, hundreds rocognized her, hundreds hailed hor with loud acclamations. Au sho left tho cathedral of Notro Damo, in order to ascend into tho carriage again with her children and thoir gov erness, ono would bo tempted to think that tho wholo square in front of tho church had been changed into a dark, tumultuous sea, which dashed its rag ing black waves into all tho streets de bouching on tho square, and was fill ing all Paris with its roar, its swell, its thundor roll. Yes, all Paris was there, in order to look upon ulario Antoinot to, who, nt this hour, was not tho Queon, but tho fair woman; tho happy mother who, with tho pride of tho mother of tho Gracchi, desired no other protection and no other compan ionship than that of her two sons; who, her hand resting upon tho shoulder of hor daughter, needed no other maid of honor to appear beforo tho peoplo in tlo splendor and all the dignity of tlio queen of Franco nnd tho truo moiuer, Yes, all Paris was thpi'O in order AX.BA.:iSrS, VT., I to greet the qiteon, U10 woinon, nnil I tlio mother, nml out of thoiiBitnth ud- ! . on thousamls of throitts Micro noumled ' ! ti it 11 1 r till fin 1; tiw, ...i.f... 1 t ...,t m,, a. iii toinotto I Long livo tho fair mother i and tho fair children of Franco 1" !

Sho rose from her seat, and with a gosturo ot ' inimitable grace took tho youngest son iroui tho arms of the nurse, nnd lifted 1 him high in tho air, in order to display i this last token of her happiness and hor motherly pride to tho Parisians, who had not yet seen tho child.

Tho eyes of tho Parisians drank in this spectacle with perfect rapture, and their shouting arose everv moment like a burbt of fanaticism. "How boiutiful sho is 1" resounded overywhero from tho mass.

"They havo cortainly killed tho Swiss guards who nru kcoping tho door; they will now pour into tho palace. O, God ! what will become of Vuricourt? I must know what is going on."
