THE CONTENTED MAN. •BY WASHINGTON IBVINO. > In the garden of tho Tuillorios, there is a sun ny corner under the wall of u terraco which fronts the south. Along tho Wall is a raitgo of benches commanding u view of the walks and avenues of tho garden.. This genial nook is a place of great resort in the latter part of au tumn, and in fine days in winter, as it seems'to retain tho flavor of departed summer. On a calm, bright morning it is quiro «hVo with nursery-maids, and their playful little charges. Hither also rosort a number of anciont ladies and gentlemen, who, with laudable thrift in small pleasures and small cxpcaccs, for which tho French aro to be noted, come hero to en joy sunshine and save fire-wood. Hpro may often bo seen some cavalier of tho old school, when the sunbeams have warmed his blood in to something like a glow, fluttering about like a frost-bitten moth, thawed before the fire, putting forth a leeblo show of gallantry among the antiquated dames, and now and then' eye ing the buxom nursery-maids with what might almost be mistaken for an air of libertinism. Among the habitual frequenters of this place, I have often remarked an old gentleman, whoso dress was dueldodly antwovofutional.— Ho wore tho three cornered cocked hat of the ancien regime; his hair. \vas frizzled-over each car into aiies do pigeon, a style strongly savor ing of Bourbwvsnt; and a .queue stuck out be hind, ihe loyalty of which was not to bo dis puted. His dtess, though ancient, had an air of decayed gentility; and I observed that ho took his siiufl’ out of an elegant though old fashioned gold box. He appeared to bo tho most popular, man on the walk. ■ lie had a compliment lor every old lady, to kissed every child, arid he * 1 patted every little dog on tho head; for children and little dogs aro very im portant members of society in France. I must observe, however, that he seldom kissed a child, without, at tli6. samo time, pinching the nursery-maid's cheek. A Frenchman of tho old school never forgets his devoirs to the sex. I had taken a liking to - this old gentleman.--— There was an habitual expression of benevo lence in his face, which I have vojy frbijueuily remarked in the rcliques of ihe politer days, of Franco. The,constant interchange of those thousand little -courtesies which imperceptibly sweeten life, have a happy effect upon the fea tures, and spread a mellow ctoning charm o- ver tho wrinkles of old ago., Wiiorp there, is a favorable predisposition, ono soon forms a kind of tacit intimacy by often meeting on the same walks. Once or twice I accommodated . him with a bench, after which wc touched hats on passing each other; at length wo got so far as to take a pinch of snuff together out of her box, which is equivalent to eating salt together iu tho East: from -h;tt time ottr a tquaintincc was established. I now became his frequent com panion in his mprning promenades, end deriv ed much amusement from ins good lmmore:! remarks on men- and manners. One morning as wo were strolling through an alley of. the Tuilleries, with tbpiautumnal breeze whirling the yellow leaves nbout-otig path, my compan ion fell into a peculiarly communicntivo vein and gave me several particulars of his history. IIo had once been wealthy, and possessed of a fine estate in the country, mid a noble hotel in Paris; but the Revolution, which cfl'octod so many disastrous changes, stripped him of every thing. IIo was secretly denounced by his own steward, during it sanguinary period of the Re volution, and a number oi\ho bloodhounds of tho Convention were sent to arrest him. He reccived.private intelligence of their approach ip timo to elfoct his escape. He landed in Eng land without money, or friends; but considered himself singularly.fortunate in having his head on his shoulders; several of his neighbors having been gullotincd us a punishment for being rich. When ho readied London, he haJ but a Louis in his pocket, aud no prospect of getting ano ther. Ho ate a solitary dinner on beef-steak, and was tlmost poisoned by port wine, which train its color, lie hud mistaken for claret. The dingy look of tho chop-house, and of tho little mahogany-cplored box in which ho a o his dinner, contrasted sadly with the gay saloons of Paris. Every thing looked gloomy and disheartening. Poverty stared him in the lace; he turned over the few shillings lie had of change; nor did ho know what was to bricome of him; and—wont to the theatre! Ho took liis seat in tho. pit, listened attentively to a trage dy of which he did riot understand a word, and which seemed made up of .fighting and stub bing, aud scene-shifting; and began to feel his spirit sinking within him, when, casting his eyes into ihe orchestra, wiiat was his surprise to recognise an'old friend.and neighbor in the very uct of extorting music from a huge violinccllo. • As soon as tho evening perform- auco was over, lie tapped his friend oil the shoulder; .they kissed each other on each check, and the musietitn; took hint homo and shared his lodgings with h:m. Ho had lca'rited music us an accomplishment: by his friend’s advice ho turned U» it us a mean of support. IIo pro cured a victim, offered himself for. tho orches tra, was received;-, and again considered : him self ono of the most fortuoato men upon earth. Horo,therefore lie liv-. d for m my .v irs during tho nscen.'.iiticy of tho terrible NapolcOn. IIo fuaitil sever..1 emigrants living like liimsclt by the exercise of thesr t dent*. They associated toretlior, talked of Franco aud old time, aud endeavored to keep up a soniblance ot 1 atiyi- ;;n l,fc in ib'- centre of London. They dined ar a miserable cheap l- rendi restaurateur's in t| K! neighborhood of Leicoster-squaro, where they were served with a caricature of.Frpnch cookery. Volume 1 A*o. 13. They took their promenade in St. Juntos’ Park, and endeavdred to fancy it tho Tuille- ncs;; in short, thqy mado shift to accommo date themselves to every thing but an English Sunday. Indeod tho old gemleman^jecnlci to have nothing to say against theiEsgMi Whom ho affirmed to bo brave gens; and ht» mingled so much among them, that at the end of twenty years lie could speak their language almost well enough to be uiiderstood. The downfall of Napoleon was another epoch in his life. Ho had considered himself a fortu- nate man to make his escape pennyicss out of France, and lie considered himself fortunato to be about to return pennvless into it. It is. true that lie found his Parisian hotel had pass ed through several hands during tho vicissi tudes of the times, so as to bo beyond tho roach of recovery, .t„„ i m t.^ beon no- ticed benignantly by government, and had a pension of several hundred francs, upon which, with careful management, he lived independ ently, and, as far as I could judge, happily As his once splendid hotel was now occupied us a hotel garni, lie hired a small chamber in the attic; it was but, as ho said, changing his bed-room up two pair of stairs—ho was still in liis orim house. His l oom was decorated witli pictures of several beauties of former times, with whom lie professed to have been on favor- ablo terms: among them wa$ a favorite opera- dancer, who had been the'admiration of Paris at tlio breaking out of the Revolution. Sho hud been tho protdgeo of my friend, and one of tho few of his-youthfui tavorites who had survived tho iapio of time and its various vicis situdes. They now had renewed thoir acquaintance, and sho now and then visited him; but tliw beautiful Psyche, onco tho fashion of the day, and tho idol of tho parterre, was now a shriv elled, littlo old woman’, warped in the back and with a booked nose. The old gentleman wus a devout attendant upon, tho levees—ho was most zealous iu his loyalty,-and could not spoak of tho royal family without it burst of ontbusi- asm: for ho still felt towards them as his com panions in exile. As to his poverty, ho mado light of itj and uidoed had a good humored way of consoling himself for every cross and priva tion, If he had lost his chateau in tho coun try, ha h3d half a dozen royal palaces, as it were at his command. Ho had Versailles and St. Cloud for Jiis country resorts, and tho sha dy alleys of tho Tuilleries arid Luxembourg, for his town recreation. Thus all his prome nades and relaxations tvero magnificont, yet cost nothing. When I walk through those fiao gardens, said lie, fliavo only tp fancy myself tho owner of thorn, and they arc mine. All those guy crywds aro my visitors, and I defy the grand seigBor.himself to display a greater variety of beauty. Nuy, what is bettor, I havo not tho trouble of entertaining them. My os- tato is a parfect Sans Souci, where every ono does as lie pleases and no'one troubles tho owner. • All Paris is my theatre, and presents mo with a continual spectacle. T have n table spread for mo in every street, and thousands of waiters ready to fly at my bidding.* When my servants haye waitod uponmo I pay them, dis charge tliem atidjtlicfo’ji an end;,I have no fears of their wronging or pilfering, me when my back'is turned. Upon the whole, said the old gentleman, with a srailo of infinite good lirnnor, wh’eu I tliin!; upon tho'varidus risks I have run and the manner in which I havo es- caped, when I rccolii'ct all tliat Iltavo suffered, and consider ail that I arpresent enjoy, I can not but look upon myself as a mart of singular good fortune. Such was the brief history of tins practical phihtsophor; and it is .a picture of many a Frenchman ruinod'by tho Ro volu tion. The French appear to havo a greater facility than most mon,in accommodating them selves to the reverses of life, and of . extracting honey out of the bitter things of this world.—- Tho first shock af calamity is apt to overwhelm them; but when iris once past, their natural buoyancy of feeling soon brings them again to' the surface. This rauy be called tho result of levity of jcharacier, but it unswers the end of reconciling us to misfortune, and if it bo no: true philosophy, it is something almost as effi cacious. Ever sinco I have heard tho story, of my littlo Frenchman, I have treasured it up in my heart; and I thank my stars I have at length found what I h id long considorcdas not to bo found on earth—a contented man, Cultivation sf Tea m Spain. (Extracted from a French Journal.) Tho cultivation of tea, confined to China for many centuries, begins to spread into other parts of the earth It was introduced into Brazil, twenty years ago, by a colony of Chi nese established, in that country. As it will flourish in almost any part of South America and in tho southern statos of the United Stutos, it will soon become an important article of cultivation and commcrco in America und in oilier quarters of tho world. The society of Friends, of tho. country of tho kingdom ot V a- loncia, in Spain, Ins offered "a premium ol MOO reals to any one that will raise a crop of 20 pounds of tea, rolled and soparatod, aud hav ing the sumo qualities and fliVour ns that im ported from China. It is likely that the tea- phi nt would succeed perfectly in some parts of the south of Franco. .»•'*„••• ' Gen.
