A curious swindling case has just
come before the coricctional police ,
bays a I'aris dispntcli to the London
L'olograph. A young woman named
Marie fiigot , wh6 appeared in court
vearing a vehotiniiutlo richly trimmed
vithfur , was churgdd with obtaining
H.OOO francs , besides board and lodging ,
rom a Paris hotel keeper bj' false iiro-
eiifaes. About a year ago Marie Higot
sent to the hotel and engaged rooms
or heraolf aiidhurmobtintimato friend ,
vhotn bho said vvuft M. lln ui-iun , bona-
or of Nice. The hotel being situated
n a part of Paris not much frequented
> y persons of distinction , the proprietor
vas delighted at the pi expect of having
i senator to stop with him , Marie
Jlgot was supplied with the best of
everything. She is baid to ha\o been
'made as happy as a rat in
a Dutch ohecso. " Tlio hotel keeper was
one of the most credulous of men ; lie
ulvanced Marie money whenever bho
asked for it , always believing that the
enator would make the account right
vhon ho came. But months wont by
ind still M. Ho-terian did not appear.
I'lio hotel keeper had , however , the
attraction of believing that ho was in
ogular correspondence with him. The
otters being always given to Marie to

irnftily worded so us to buoy up her
iupo'u hopes and allay any suspicion ho
night have. Although those letters
were posted 111 Paris the abbonco of the
Nice poslmatk was not observed. The
tiadesinan ono daj received a ptioto-
graph which ho supposed to bo M.

the painter Gorvex. At length it was
