ei | r |,i c f who fell in the war of La Ven-

de Genii?, she has put together her re-
membrances of that war, and of her ,
own personal sulTerings. 1 he resigna
tion and piety which this extraordinary
woman displayed in her misfortunes are,
pet haps, beyond all precedent.
1 Ol the many afflicting situations in
which Madame de Bonchamps was plac
ed, perhaps that described in the sub-
'oined extract is the most striking :
“ As I wn« in great want of sleep, I
threw myself dressed, upon the bed,

to close try eyes. My daughter sufler-

on my knees, and she could turn about,
which she never did without rubbing my
diseased knee ; in these moments she
always gave me extreme pain ; but I
sustained from complaint.
I spent, indeed, a horrible night ; and
my inquietude, as well as my bodily suf

repose. My daughter slept a little j but

A NOBLE ACTION.
When Mr. Macready was performing
at the Birmingham Theatre, he had an
opportunity of displaying his courage
and humanity, worthy of being recorded
to his honor : lie had left the house after
the tragedy of Hamlet, iu which he had
delineated with his accustomed ability
the romantic and philosophic Prince,
and was proceeding on foot to his lodg
ings in fie suburbs, when he approached
a small cottage in flames, surrounded by
a concourse of people, as usual, eager
toluol on and loth to asai.-t. The flames
believe the admitted opinion is, that lie
was under the influence of spirits. Be
this as it may, he first made an attempt
ill the house to “hoot himself with a pis
tol, which, having been loaded for some
time, mi>sed fire, and which hu poor
old mother, who was lying very ill, pre
vailed on him to give up to her. By the
united entreaties of his mother, wile,
and sisters, (the latter ol whom had
been called there by the illness of their
parents,) he seemed for a few minutes
to be somewhat tranqiiilized , but soon
after, seizing his rifle, he rushed out ol
doors, sweating he would kill himself
He was followed about fifty yards from
the door by hts wife and sister?, (th

parts. 1 had only time to save myself
with mv two children and the girl who
followed ns, in order to reach the village
of St. Hurbelon. The distance between
that village and Ancenis is hardly four
leagues; but although we set off at 6
o'clock in the evening, we only reach
ed St. llerbelon at six in the morning,
ll is true we were on foot, and that I
carried Hermenee on my back ; anti my
servant carried my daughter. We often
in the Blues at a distance,and then we
were obliged to go back : 1 am convinc
ed that in this flight we walked six nr
seven leagues. Having reached St.
llerbelon, after having been exposed to
a thousand dangers, we. were hospitably
received at a farm ; that very day a
burning fever obliged us all three to be
pul to bed. My daughter and myself
found our bodies covered with pustules,
it was the small-pox The -ytnplom?
were very mild in m\ little girl and tny-
gell, but with Hermenee the eruption
was imperfect, and in that moment he
gave the most heart rending anxiety.
“ We were nut yet recovered from
this frightful malady, when some neigh
bors came to tell the farmer with whom
we lodged that if he bad Ve.ndeans con
cealed with him he ought to send them
away without delay, to avoid the destruc
tion of his house by a detachment ot
Blues who were approaching. The far
mer led us, in this extremity, to a barn,
open to every blast, and there laid us
under the straw. We remained there
all night. An excessive cold, joined to
all that Herminee had suffered at the
passage of the Loire, completely threw
hack the eruption, the small-pox, amt
the next dav this dear child expired in
my bosom. I know not what would
have become of me in thi“ horrible situ
ation without religion, which is all suffi
cicrjt and nil supporting. I saw this be
loved child in Heaven, and I only wept
tor uivselt. I wrapped him ill a large
white handkerchief, and I held him dead
iu my arms for forty-eight hours, un
willing to part with the body tiil 1 could
deposit it in consecrated ground. At
Lnigth ! found the means of having him
secretly buried in the Church-yard ol
ai. Herbelon. This cruel event having
led to the discovery that we were shel
tered in this barn, wn were obliged t>>
leave it, A good man ot the village,
earned Drounceu, came to take us away,
and he. conducted us (my daughter amt
nivself) to the house of one < t Ins rela- j
tions at llardoulliere, about halt a league
from St. llerbelon. We vvere. yet co
vered with small-pox. I agreed to part
from my faithful servant ; but 1 had the
consolation of thinking, that, being no
i ngei with us, she had ceased to incur
i,nt individual danger.
“The Republicans having come from
Nantes to make a search about our new
refuge, we were compelled, without tie-
lay, to leave the house ; anti were plac
ed iu the hollow of a tree, about twelve
feet high. We climbed to this hiding-
place by means of a ladder, and we re

A cause, remarkable for its romantic
details, came on a short time since be
fore the sixth Correctional Chamber.—
The Sieur Azzolari de Bergamo, aged
23 had, in 1821, been obliged, in con
sequence of the political commotions
which then agitated Piedmont, to leave
Turin, where he studied medicine.—
On taking refuge in France, he fixed his
residence at Paris, where he lodged in
Ihe house of a locksmith, who had a
young and handsome daughter. Azzola
ri abused the advantages which his situa
tion afforded him, anil the young woman
became the victim of his seductive arts.
The father having discovered the in
trigue, reproached the Piedmontese for j
his conduct, and a quarrel ensued, in the
