of encouragement and admiration. How could
she fail to be the dupe of such language, conceal'
ing though it did such dark and fatal projects?
Struck with the Jesuit's rare intelligence, feel
ing her curiosity greatly excited by some myster
ious words that he had purposely uttered, hardly
explaining to herself the strange influence which
this pernicious counsellor already exercised over
her, and animated by respectful compassion for
a man of his age and talents placed in so precar
ious a position, Adrienne said to him, with all
her natural cordiality. "A man of your merit
and character, 6ir, ought not to be at the mercy
of the caprice of circumstances. Some of your
words have opened a new horizon before me; I
feel that, on many points, your counsels may be
of the greatest use to me. Moreover, in coming
to fetch me from this house, and in devoting
yourself to the service of other persona of my
family, you have shown me marks of interest
which I cannot forget without ingratitude. You
have lost a humble but secure situation. Permit
me-
" Not a word more, my dear young lady," said
Rodin, interrupting Mdlle. de Cardoville, with an
air of chagrin. " 1 feel for you the deepest sym
pathy; I am honored by having ideas in common
with you; I believe firmly that-some day you
will have to ask advice of the poor old philoso
pher; and, precisely because of all . that, I must
and ought to maintain towards you the most
complete independence."
" But, sir, it i8 I that would be the obliged
party, if you deigned to accept what I offer."
"Oh, my dear young lady," said Rodin, with a
smile; " I know that your generosity would al
ways know how to make gratitude light and easy;
but, once more, I cannot accept anything from
you. One day, perhaps, you will know why"
"One day?"
" It is impossible for me to tell you more. And
then, supposing I were under an obligation to
you, how could I tell you all that was good acd
beatiful in your actions? Hereafter, if you are
somewhat indebted to me for my advice, so much
the better; I shall be the more ready to blame you
if I find anything to blame."
"In this way, sir, you would forbid me to be
grateful to you.
"No, no," said Rodin, with apparent emotion.
"Oh, believe me! there will come a solemn mo
ment, in which you may repay all, in a manner
worthy of yourself and me."
This conversation was here interrupted by the
nurse, who said to Adrienne as she entered:
"Madame, there is a little humpbacked workwo
man down stairs, who wishes to speak to you.
As, according to the doctor's new orders, you are
to do as you like, I have come to ask, if I am to
bring hei op to you. She is so badly dressed,
that 1 did not venture."
" Bring her up, by all means," siid Adrienne,
hastily, for she had recognized Mother Bunch by
the nurse's description. " Bring her up directly."
"The doctor has also left word, that his carriage
is to be at your orders, madame; are the horses
to be put to? "
"Yes, in a quarter of an hour," answered Adri
enne to the nurse, who went out; then, addressing
Rodin, she continued: " I do not think the mag
istrate can now be long, before he returns with
Marshal Simon's daughters."
" I think not, my dear young lady; but who is
this deformed workwoman?" asked Rodin, with
an air of indifference.
" The adopted sister of a gallant fellow, who
risked all in endeavoring to rescue me from
this house. And, sir," said Adrienne, with emo
tion, " this young workwoman is a rare and ex
cellent creature. Never was a nobler mind, a
more generous heart, concealed beneath an ex
terior less ;"
But reflecting, that Rodin seemed to unite in
his own person the same moral and physical con
trasts as the sewing-girl, Adrienne stopped 6hort,
and then added, with inimitable grace, as she
looked at the Jesuit, who was somewhat aston
ished at the sudden pause: "No; this noble girl
is not the only person who proves how loftiness
of soul, and superiority of mind, can make us
indifferent to the vain advantages which belong
only to the accidents of birth or fortune." At
the moment of Adrienne speaking these last
words, Mother Bunch entered the room.

HIS WORST BLOW YET FOR ROME!

"Rev. Mother Rose.
A Bishop and
Two Priests."

MY II. W. HOWMAN.
Papal pills are sugar ccaKd.
Credulity is the basis of Rome's re
ligion. Get a papUt to thinking and the
priest will curse you.
The priest's blindest eye is on the
side where the most money comes
from.
A Bible Is the most hurtful book a
papist can read if we Judge from
Rome's past acts.
No man can walk with civilization
and stay In the woods of papal super
stition. Rome wears a religious cloak, yet
has a cold heart .
A confessional box Is the tomb 01
self-respect.
Wearing a cross does not cure cross
ness. Hatred is nursed by papal prejudice.
The brighter history shines the dark
er Rome'e record.
It is hard to convince a papist who
lets the priest do his thinking.
To know that popery la a curse
makes a man want to rid the earth ot
It. i
Keeping knowledge in the hands ot
the priest starves the minda of the
people.
You can never tell what a papist will
do out ot a church by his looks ot de
votion within.
Rome haa trouble with the man who
does hia own thinking.
Popery throws the most mud at the
whitest garmenta.
The priest does an evil day'a work
when he gets a child to go to the paro
chial school.
Every dollar In Rome's possession
is stamped with fraud.
No man's Influence Is so small but
what he could make It tell against
Rome.
When Rome gives money ene always
puts a chain of power on it
Truth is always ready to go to war;
error will run at the first opportunity.
Every fact la an antidote for some
foolish fancy.
Fighting truth Is an old trick ot
popery; and it has become an adept
at it
When a man sees the truth he be
holds the deformities of error.
