Before the star of Napoleon rose over the

of France. Altcrtvards he becante ii partof

victorious cziriipaigns, till Marmonts’s treason
sent lllill to Dlba. Hesh-are-d his year's ex-
ile, and was at his right hand when he again
entered Paris amid the shoots of the people.
He went with him at last to the fatal field of
Waterloo, and saw there the mighty drama
end. We never hear the name of Bertrand
iiieutioned without thinking of his last effort
to save Bonaparte at the close of this dread-
ful battle. When victory had again undia-
gain been within his grasp, and again and
again snatched from it; and Blucber l)lld;fll

When about half \\'8yl.0 the enemy’s line_'he
stopped, and addressed them, telling them of
the trust he committed to them. The cry of
‘Vive le Empereur’ that replied, was heard
all over the field of battle; and under Ney
they defiled before him, and marclicd with
a firm and steady step, and in dead silence
on the foe. Bertrand reinaint-d behind with
him, and watched the brave fellows ascend
the eminence and move uiidauntedly for-

and Europe.

This Guard of I500 had never been van-
quished, and the allied forces saw with awe
the troops that had been the terror ofEurope
move steadily down on their centre. The
fire suddenly abated. But the pause was
only momentary. Every cannon seemed to
open at once, and \\ hole ranks were swept
away. ‘But that unconquerablc Guardkiiew

A CAUTION TO THE GIRLS-MORE

RASCALITY AMONG THE SMITHS.

Some weeks since, the annual incctirig of
the Baptist Association was llt'lll in a migh-
boring town. Amozigtlie clergynicn present
was one by the name of Smith. And he
hud a brother, and his name was likcwisw
Smith—who was represented as being it very
rich and pious man. During lllrll‘ Slay
they put up at the house of a member of the
chiirch--and be had aduughtei'—_vea, sever-
al daughters. The Smitli—-not the clergy-
uian—being a widower, m-ide suit to the
t-'l‘.‘dCSl. of the daiughters—liltt=ivise a member‘
of-the church, and an arriistblc. and much re-
spected young lady.

 

the leC0mfl't(’D(l‘:lllOllS of his broiler the cler-
gymnn, and others. he made such a rapid
progress in the business, that on Wednt-sdeiy
sticcecdiiig—-aftt-r less than a wet-lt’s acqztint-
‘t)l.CP, the marriage vow was said, and the
llllpll-ll knot was tied.

A few days afterward they took their de-
, ~ i'~e,_fo_5_l\=l_il_waukie-..the residence of the
AS’-mil/t-ézis he reported. There they" i"c'-
muined a tvcck or more,’ when the husband
represented to the wifc, that E\’liltvaukie was
very sickly, and that it would be better for
them to return and spend the winter among
her friends in this country. The young
wife, all confidence and credulity---as \\ omen
generally are in such CIl.Sl:‘S"'C0flCt"(lt'l.l to the
arrangcnieni, and they began to trial.-e pro-
paralious forreturning. The furniture pro-
vided by her father‘ was repackcd and ship-
ped on board a Sl(’8llll)O:zf, and they also
went on board. The wife was seated in the
cabin, while the husband procet-dt-d as ht-
said, to settle matters, and arrange their fur-
niture, when he. as a matter of course, ti as
to join her. The boat shoved off, urid was
soon under way. The unsuspecting wilt-
waited a reasonable time for her Smith to
join her, but no Smith came. Growing
llllpallt-'nl., she sit out in search of her bus
band, but her search was in vain. Stit-
found him not, but receive-d a ticket for her
ipzissage in her maiden name to Buffilo,
from the steward, who knew noth-
ing further of the lllill.'..“l'. She next called
upon the Captain__l.iut he knew notliing
more than thata gentleman had paid the
passage for a servant girl (the name of the
ticket) whom he wishcd to st-rid to her
friends in Bufiulo. ~

Suspicion then, for the first time flashed
upon her mind. She, the wife of but a few
y-weeks —ha_d been deserted. Her feelings
may be imagined, but not described. She
has arrived i1li.l’le' home of her childhood,
but of her husband, he tvlio but a little while
before had sworn to love, protect, and cher-
ish her, as long as life remained, she has
neither seen nor heard from. His con-
duct is inexplicable, save on the supposition
that he is an unmitigated villain.

But the tale is not all told. The wife.
was to blame. She had plighted her vows
to a young uiaii of the nt-i_«,-hborliood—und
but ten days were to elapse bt.‘f0I“t‘ they were
to have been married. But drawn away
from duty by the dazzling iwpres.-ntatioiis of
wealth which were held out to her, all else
was forgotten, and she, surely reaps a bitter
reward. .

 

Curious Emigration of ‘Ants.-In the
month of June, says a corrcspontlent, Mr.
Young,,my gooseberry bushes were infested
with it very destructive species of caterpillar
and with a view of having them destroyed,
lcauseda bushel ofthe ants, formica r-ufa,
to be conveyed frorri Shin Glen, and distrib-
uted amongst the bushes, which they perfect-
ly-cleaned ofthe 7:a/rminl in two days. At.
the end of that period, however, .the little
creatures appeared in deep contemplation,
gathering together in groups, and on sudden
marched offin the most‘ perfect order to a
neighboring ant hill (tvliich, no doubt. some
of their scouts had discovered) where it stic-
cession of defeats and victories occurred be-
fore they were admitted to freedom of the
burg.—Im-amass Courier.

Julio Sm-if/1, has got liienself llllO another
scrape. He promised to lll:ll‘l'y J girl in
Pliiludelphiu, after two years‘ courtship, and
then wouldn’t do it, and so John was ‘looked

He is ccrt..ittly the most unlucky scapegrace

that he fell doivn the hold of a ship in New
Orleansthc other day and hurt himself some.
It didu’t -kill him of course—-nothing can.-—

Mcrrion Square, Oct. l4. I843.
It appears that the arrests are to have if
very wide scope, including several t-ditors of
journals, and the geritlcuien connected with
the working of the association. The inagisi
trates were instructed by the governiiit-ht to
remain in their offices till they received in:
tiriiatioo from the castle that their attendance‘-
was no longer required. ,
lt was generally believed lllut iviirtanti
were to be imuiediutely issut-d against the
Right Rev. Dr. Higgins, the most. Rev. Dr;
M'f-Life, and Lord French.
The aggressive move on the part of the
Government produced it Sunday uiceting at
l-it-lsion Green, which was alto.-iidt-d by Mr;
Alderman Gl'l‘lCt‘, Mr. John U'Conncll, Dr.-
Gray, nod other local ‘agitators. Mr. John‘
O’Conr.ell, (his father being in the country)
made 11 speech, in the course of which he‘
said his father hlld srnt him that day to risk;
were they frightened or alarmed .7 (Loud
and long continued cries of“No. no. ncvcrl”
waving of hats, &c.) He would take their
answer back to his father, and would tell
them they had no cause to be frightened»-
'l‘hi:-rc had been some talk of the King of
Hanover (groans and hisscs) and 20,000
(more grains and hl:SL’S) coming over there:
Let them come
‘They would send a goose over
‘In the King of‘ Hanover.
(laughter) and he thought he and his med
would get rather too much of a plucking;
(Cheers and laughter.) _
The incipient iiiovi-iiit-nts which led to tlio
arrest of Mr. O’Cot'inell were as follows:
Lord, Grey arrived at Dublin quite unexpect-
cdly on the 6th. Early nt-xl. morning it
Privy Council was held, and the result was'
the issuing of it l-‘rocl-.iiii.ttion for the sup-
pression of thelCloniarf meeting, signed by
the Lord Lieutenant and Privy Council; 7’

As_ soon as this Proclatiiation was known,-
Mr. O'Connell called a special meeting of
the Repeal Association, which was nuiner-‘
ously attended, the result-of whose delibera-
lions was the issuing of the following coun-‘
ier proclamation:

O'CONNELL'S PROCLAMATIO.‘f.

Notice.——Whe-reiis there has appeared_
under the signature of E. B. Sugd;-n, Do-‘
rioughrnorc Eliot, F. Blackburn:-, E. Blake;
ney, Frcd. Shaw, '1‘. B. C Smith, a pdpef
being. or purporting to bc, a proclaniation;
drawn up in very loose and inaccurate‘
terms, and manifestly misrepresenting known’
facts, the 0bjt‘(‘.I of which appears to be to
prevent the public meeting intended to be‘
held to marrow. the 8th instant at Con't:irf,~
to petition parlianii-nt for the repeal of the‘
halt-ltil and destructive measure of the Legis-‘
latlve Union.

And wlierens such proclamation has not’-
appeared until late in the afternoon of this
day S:illll'(l.l_V, the 7th insi.: so that it is iii:
terly impossible that the knowledge of it!"
eiiisti-ace could be communicated in the
usual official channels, or by :he - post. in
time to have its contents known-to the persona‘
intended to nit.-ct at Clontarf for the purpofié‘
of petitioning as aforesaid; \\-l1(-.l'f.'b_V ill dis,-‘
posed persons may have an opporiuriity
under color of said proclamation, to provolce‘
breaches of the PPEICP, or commit violence?
on persons intending to proceed peaceably
and legally to said intended met-ting. ,

‘We, therefore. the Committee of the Loy-'
iil National Repeal Associations, do most
earnestly request and cntreat, that all well

tiiiiation, repair to their own dwellings. and
not plzice themselves in peril ofany collision‘
or of receiving any ill treatment whatsoever:
"Aod we do further inform such persons.-
that without yielding in any thing to the‘
unfounded allegiitions in s-iid alleged pro-‘
clzimaiion, we deem it prudent and wise. and
above all things humane-, to declare that said
meeting is abandoned and not to be held;

Extensive military precautions were takeit‘

O’Conriell requested to see the information
on which the warrant was issued; and hav-
ing cooly read it over, said he was ready to
give the bail required, and entered into
rccognizances, himself in £1,000, and Mr.
l\l'Liughin and Mr Dunne in £500 each,
and the ptlrtlt.-S retired, when Mr. O'Connell
imrnediutcly caused the following address to
be published '. .
TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND.
"Beloved fellow countrymenl l announce
to you that which you will hear from other
quarters, namely, that I have this day given
ball to answer to a charge of "conspiracy
and other misdemeanors,” the first day of
nexttcrm. Imuke this announcement in
order to conjure the people, one and all, to
observe the strictest and most perfect tran-
quility. Any attempt to disturb the public
peace may be most disastrous ;' certainly
would be criminal and mischievous.
"Atteiid, then, beloved countrymen, to me.
- "Be not tempted by any body to break the
peace, to violate the law, or to be guilty of
any tumult or disturbance. The slightest
crime against order or the public peace may
ruin our beautiful andptherwise triumphant
cause.» - ‘
"If you will, during this crisis, follow my
advice and act as I- entreat you to do, pa-
iien'tly","quietly and legallv,[ think I can
pledge myself to you, that the period is not

on Sunday.‘ The guards at the places where’
‘tliey'are usually stationed in the city itself-
were doubled with the exception of the‘
soldivrs required for that purpose, and for ll
reservt-d force stationed in Aldborough
Hottse by 10 o'clock. the whole garrison was‘
drawn up at Clontarf,and the guns of the‘
Pigeon-house, which was garrisoned by the
sei'ei'al companies of foot and artillery. were‘
turned so as to sweep the road to Clontarf.
, Wales.--Tlie proclamation from the‘
throne does not appear toghave had the effect-
of silencing the troubles in Wales. The
disturbances continue. . .
_ Spam.--The aflairs of Spain continua‘
in a most deplorable state. One milit'tirv'
action after another—-“treachery destroyving’
