The Scoundrels had no doubt discnvorcd my csonpe, and were about t0 wreak their ven- geance upon the unfortunate creature in 1 their .power. The trot of the horse which l had heard was, simultaneously with the breaking out of those wild screams, increased to a rapid gallop. “ Hallo !“ exclaimed the horseman as he came swiftly up. “ Do you know where these screams come from I" It was the horse patrol who thus prmv'identially came up. 1 briefly stated that the life of a woman was at- the mercy of two escaped con- victs. “Then, for God‘s sake, jump 11 ) heâ€" hind me 1" exclaimed the patrol. “ lVe’ll be there in a couple of minutes." I did so ; the horse a powerful animal, and not alto- gether unused to carry double» started off, as if it comprehended the necessity for in-‘ creased speed, and in a very short space of time we were at the door of the house from which I had so lately escaped. Marie l)u- quesne, with her body half out of the winâ€" dow, was still wildly screaming as we rushed into the room below. There was nobody there, and we swiftly ascended the stairs, at the top of which we couldhear Levasseur and Dubarle thundering at the door, which they had unexpectedly found fastened, and hurlâ€" ‘ing a storm of impreeations at the woman within, the noise of which enabled us to ap‘ proach them pretty nearly before being dis< covered. Martin saw us first, and his sudden exclamation alarmed the others. Dubarle and Martin made a desperate rush to pass us, by which I was momentarily thrown on one side against the wall, and very fortunately, as a bullet levelled at me from a )istol Lew assellr held in his hand would pro ably have finished me. Martin escaped, which I was not Very sorry for; but the patrol pinned ,lhlbarle safely, and l gripped Levasseur with a strength and ferocity against which he was as utterly powerless as an infant. Our vic- tory was complete ; and two hours afterward the recaptured convicts were safely lodged in a station house. J calmed Mmlznn lhiquesne to he as gently nndeceivod the next morning with respect to her child ; but the. reaction and disappoint- ment proved too much for her wavering in- tellect. She relapsed into positive insanity, and “as plaeeJ in Bedlam, where she re- mained two years. At the end of that time she was pronounced convalescent. A suffi- cient sun: of money was raisedhy myself and others, not only to send her to Paris, but to enable her to set up 11:: :i milliner in :1 small but reapectuhle way. As: lately as last May when I saw her there she was in healthlmth of mind and body, and doing comfortably. With the concurrence ufthe pnliccuuther- itics very little “as said publicly about my entrapment. it might, perhaps, have ex- cited a monmnania among liberated convicts colored and exaggerated as every incident would have heen for the amusement of the public â€"to attempt similar exploits. l was also anxious to conceal the )0in l had on- cnnntcreil from my wife ; Huh it was not till I hml left the police force that she was told of it.

There is one town in England which, riot. withstanding thth the epithet “royal” is commonly applied to it, is always attractive to the, cultivated American. The sternest republican of us all cannot restrain a feelinrr of pride and exultation when that magnifi- cent mansion 7 he finest ever built by man for nmnmcalled \Vindsor Castle, first strikes upon his gaze. It has a majesty of its own quite independent of kingship, though it has been always the habitation of kings. lts towers and terraces are not trodden liyprivil- cged feet onlv, but the whole nation take their pride and pleasure in it ; a nation that was once our own, and whose annals, so for at least as that glorious structure is conâ€" nected with them, are our annals. A cathev dral has been defined by a great poet as “ a petrified religion ;" and so may this fair dwelling-house, “ so royal, rich, and wide," containing the liahitations of so many degrees of men, and associath with events such as every generation of English-speaking races will read of with interest to the end of time, he considered “ petrified history." The standard of England that floats to-dny from its highest tower, proclaiming that the Queen is now in residence, has floated over scores of kings and queens in that same place: those mighty ramparts, used now only "for pleasure and for state." were thrown up near a thousand years ago for a defense by the first \Villiam, who “loved the tall door as though he was their father," and whose favorite huntingseat was at Windsor, in the centre of the same fair forth that sur. rounds it now. Not» even \Villinm the (‘onâ€" queror was, however, the first monarch who had his dwelling here, though he first fortified the place. lts original founder is lost in the mists of time. llr.
