A late Parisian newspaper tells the storv of a wealth v Englishman, who tf , i may constantly be Been at the grand . oner a and tho Italian ntiera. and who enjoys a reat reputation, not only as being a' connoisseur of rjiusic, but rnther, as txmig a great amatuer of painting. llor the latter reputation was acquired you will presently see. lie was, he is, one of those .Uedonin Englishmen, who live alternately in all the European capitals, except when they are on an occasional jaunt to Egypt, or to uhina, or to India, pr to the Holy Land. He never traveled nlone; his wife was with him, his bona ,fiU wife, for notwithstanding his errant life, (so apt to weaken one s morals) he had all tho English respect for the box, and a true Englishman's lJve for his wife. 8he was a beautiful woman, ono of thoso " keepsake " beautie, that, onco aeeh, make a man dream forever. Her social success was very great in all the cities they Tisited. In Rome, after some years' marriage, they becaino acquainted with a Ger man artist, of a good deal of reputa tion, who, to his art, joined the learn ing of a UencdictiiK), and knew the city of Rome as well ns Winckleman or Visconti. The German volunteered to be their cicerone in the Eternal City; they gladly accepted his offer. Many 'were the hours they passed Avitlt hint in tho museum of tho capital, in the Vatican, in St.' Peter's, and in tho delightful excursions they made in the environs of Rome. The artist became in love with tho English lady ; 6ha reciprocated his affection. Tho hus band was a long whilo in seeing the slain upon his honor; severul years had passed away beforo he perceived it, for ho M as very much pleased with the artist, and they had long been on tho most intimnto footing. Although btuiig to the quick by such base faith lessness nnd such gross violation of tho laws of hospitality and friendship, he said nothing; ho disliked tcrnet; he was,' nevertheless, determined uiion a complete revengo, and he appealed to cooler refle'ctious to furnish forth a suitable punishment. The passions aro had counsellors. lie left Italy and retired with his wii'e to England, saying nothing but an revoir to tho artist. When he reached England, he told his wife of the pain ful discovery he had made, and he gave her back into her father's hands. He then returned to tho continent alone, und visited Russia, Germany and Franco, where he purchased a great many paintings ; he then went to Italy, meanwhile continuing to pur chaso paintings, and at lasttwo years had now passed away since their last meeting ho called upon the German painter, who still lived in Rome, and demanded fatisfaction from him. His challenge was accepted, and the Eng lishman, according to the European custom --much better than ours being the odended party, selected the weap ons. Ho choae pistols. During the past two years he hud practiced daily lor eoveral hours, and his known address with the pistol had become an unerring certainty of shot. Ho sent tho shot wherever he wished it to go. Tho parties went on the ground - they were placed at thirty paces apart, mid with tho privilege of advancing ten stops Lcforo firing. Tho signal was then given. Ono I Two! Three! lure! Tho word fire was scarcely out of the second's month, when the Eng lishman fired without moving; his antagonist's pistol fell from his hand, and was discharged by the fall, the ball burying itself in tho ground. The Englishman's bnU had shattered the nrtist's hand, and amputation was necessary! his career of artist wai ended nnd forever. : ' A few days after tho amputation the Englishman called on hitn, and without. noticing the angry reception ho met, said to the suffering artist: " If you think my vengeunco is sat isfied with your shattered, hand und tho wreck of your uitist's career, you strangely underrate tho agony of a deceived, dishonored husband. Though I condemned you to a life of vain re- grefi. to a never ending series of im ,J ul potent silis, to it total oblivion bv all i amateurs uiul Jiistoriuns of art'! "Oh, no, sir," intenttjitcd the artist, his faeo beamius with a ray of hope, "the last 3'ou cannot da. My Madonna at St. Petersburg; my Luther, atlJer lin, my Flight into Egypt, at Paris; my" Tho Englishman interrupted him in turn " Spare me," snid he, " tho names of your work, but look over this cat alogue, and M-o if I have tho exact list of them all." u Yes, they nro all thoro even tho painting 1 li.iis.hed tha day before tho duel." So I was iiersnaded. All tho paintings on this catalogue ate my property; oeing my property, a uo with them what I pleaso; I please to burn I hem, aye, to burn every ono of them, that your nanio shall bo clTaced from tho glorious roll of artists. In two hours from this time, your toils, your conceptions, your skill will bo completely ethteed frorVi this world as tho line, which tho urchin traces up in tho sand are effaced by tho rising tide; iiro is us dostructire as water." In vairt tho poor artist begged for mercy; the wronged husband was in sensible to his supplications; and in two hours the servant brought to the artist's room a largo earthen vessel commonly used to contain' oil, filled with ashes it was all that reutninod of his pnintingav.
