Tlit Manof tlie Iron Mask. - It wa at the fort upon Salute Marguerite Island, from w hich Ua.aiiie reivntly -raxtl, A it the Man of tlie Iron Mask was Imprisoned. Thi uivaterioiiM personage, who has otteii insp'msl the imagination ot the dramatist and romancer, still remain an enigma to history. In I'Wi, an unknown p rori from the (':ietlu 1'igncrol, w here he had been t ouilJi-U siiut- tbe death of M.iarin in ls.",2t wa taken to S.iinte Marguerite, bv St. Mar, who bad iut N en apoint(il Governor of that island. " Thi unknown prison r," say Voltaire, "w alsove the onhnary height, ytmnjr, and of a n.o-t (listingulsloil aii arainv." ln the wav he wore a niak the chin-piece of w hich had stti-1 epring. w hicli M-rmitti the prisoner to eat with the ma-k over hi fai-e. The order were to kill him if he tinmaskul. lie remained on the island until Stint Mar, who wa made Governor of the Bastile in the year l;s, removed him from Saintc Marguerite to the Bastile. The Manpuia of Louvoii visited him before hi removal fnm the island, and conversed with him standing, which showed re.tM-ct. The unknown wa Liken b the hast He, w hen be w its lotlgtil ait well as one could be in that fortress, lie w;is n-fnstl nothing that he asked for ; hi greatest liking- U ing lor linen of extraordinary fineness, and for Lutn. He played the guitar. Theyprtsvided for hint the Itest of fare, and the Governor seated himself at the table with him. An obi physician of the liastile, who hail otteii tnatetl thi singular tuan in his illness, said that he had never sei-n hi fact, although he had often examined his tongue and the rest of his jx rson. He was admirably well forinerj, ami hi skin w a. rather dark. He intere-sted the listener by the sound of hi voice alone, never cnrrtplmet of hi coii.b'ior!. nrevtn itttimate.1 w ho lie was. Thi unknown died in 1T0J. and wa burinl at mitlnigbt lit ;dnt Paul's Pari-h. What increases the u-ystery is, that when he was. sent " to Sainte Marguerite, there dUappeanil no man of eminence in Kuron'. This the prisoner wa. without doubt, fr the follow ing is w hat hateiuil within a few days after his arrival ii;hii tbe island: The Governor himself plainl the f'Hsl upon the table, and rctiretl lifter locking the ihsor of the cell.

The latter, amaed. aski the tisherman : " Have you read what i written upon this late, and has any one mi-h it in your hand!'" " I do not know how to re.t 1," replied the tiherm.in ; I have just found it. Xo one has s--n it." The fi.h. -riiian wa held until the Governor was convinti-d that he did not knowhow to road, and that no other er-on bad si-n the plate.

An illegitimate son of Anne of Austria. This opinion i advanced by Vol tain-, and tit void of all probability. C. An illegitimate son of Iltn kiiiffham and Anne .f Austria ; a N lief no more eorisj.tcnt than the pnniling one. 7. fsu; rifiten.b-t.t r'ouiict. It w . said that when Madame de M.iinfciioii married Louis XIV. sheexarttil lpni him n proini-e to render the imprisonment of I t oti.jiiet. to w hom she bad lormeny written a compromising note, more rigid. All historical ilocuments .sc-lil oppoed to this h pot hei. . A son of Anne of Au-tria and Maziriti. whom it i puierally N-lirved were secrttly united in marriage; and it i i laimet'l that a stiu of thi union wa the mail of the) Iron Ma-k. The reasons that are given are more sjeviotH than consistent.

A tw in brother of Loui XIV.; th o Anne of Austria gave birth at iiii ''.,v I( liuis XIV., and at KilO in Hie ev.-m,,., another child was bom. This child, a the souofagn-at LonI, was carried Mrn-uv far from the court. At 20 years of a"e portrait of the King; lutvin fallen into i,i's hand, notwithstanding tin care taken t. ke p them all from him, he iecogni,.,1 brother simply by the resemblance, and cntrcat.il his tutor to conduct hhu to the king. He was locked up and made to wear a velvet mask so that no one shoal l recognize blin. This opinion is g.-nerallv rcrcivtil, uikI is the one adopted by ii..e. ists and drainati-ts. There is iio m,,,,. truth or probability in this than in th.others. 10. Patriarch Avcdick. It is ti,;l( the Armenian 1'iitrian h Avedi. k w as u-. movcil by the Jesuits to Constantinople, taken thence to KraiKf and in pris(iiHi lor lite. Still less probable than the preceding. 11. Chevalier Ilohan, who ron-piri-l against Louis XIV., and was decapitated in the I'lare tie GrcVc; that he was par. doned and another criminal substituted upon the scatlold; and that this was the man id' the iron mask. 11. A political spy; a very common prisoner, whose importance arid misi,,r. tunes romance nnd legend have magnified. The incident of the mask was Insignificant at a jH-riod when the wonieiM vcri wore black velvet ma-ks in the street and even to church. Much has N eii written and will yet lie written upon the iron mask, which will remain douhtlcvs an im-H-netrable mystery, sinir the ino.t private archives carefully searched have r v( aled nothing. It is of little coiise.)uerice, fur the solution of thi enigma is only of secondary importaia-e. The lesson to N bariitil from thes" researches is. that this j,ri-'o::cr was no more to be pi:i. ,1 than many another unfortunate; but the readers of the romance and drama w ill iievt rthwles" N stow tlieir sympathies uwoii him until the end of time.
