Now really, 4ncle, you know Julien only talks of that a a joke Trecittly; and, therefore, as his hopes of advancement are jn no way brilliant, I positively refuse my consent to his becoming my nephew; and beg that for the fuiture, you will be less attentive to him.

When it somewhat moderated, he impatiently asked Julien what he did standing there, a .4 if he expected hi day's work was over.

'I don' i want to talk, but I won't be called a lair.' Rut you are a liar; and to prove it, I order you to quit my house this instant.' Äjei Leave the shop at once, I insist. No one shall work here who speaks disrespectful of the cardinal. I am hi; most faithful subject. I would lay down my fortune nay, my life for him. Lng live Cardinal Mazarin!' Roullard had completely lo;t all mastery orer himself; he rushed to the door, and showed Julien the street. The poor young man now stood petrified with astonishment, then tried to appease his master, but in Tain. At last he, top, lost patience. 'I'm off, then, for I see you are quite mad Here is what I ow you said Roullard. taking money from a drawer. I'll make you a present of it said Julien. as he put on his hat. Take it. I tell you, and never return Returr,!' cried the young man, 'after having been called a liar, and ordered off the premises? No, no; one must have but a poor heart to do that. You shall never complain of seeing me again.' I 'That's just what wish.' 1 'And your vrlth shall be gratified. I

am not oue day devoted to the prince, and the next to the cardinal.' "Have you Unshed?" 'Yes. quite; But as you don't wish to continue your collection, I'll take possession of my lampoons." Roullard shook his fist in the young man's face; but Julien disdainfully shrugged his shoulders, took up his parcel, and strode into the street. At first lie walked on in rage scarcely knowing where thinking of nothing but the injustice and folly of his master; but insensibly, rage gave way to sadness. He did not care for loosng his place there were plenty of other jewellers in Puis who would gladly employ him; but then Roullard was Jane's uncle, and there was now no hope of his consenting to their marriage. What wus to be done? His heart died within him. for the trial was indeed a sore una. Occupied with these thoughts, he had walked through the Talleritrs, and gained the then solitary bank of the Seine. Here he sat himself down, and his eyes falling upon his parcel, he was inclined to throw it from him in disgust. Cursed cardinal," thought he, "you are the ctu-t of all. lUd it not been for you, I hou!d not have left Mona Rcullard; I should hae established myself in his confidence, becoma his eiA an:, tr.d no doubt shortly have gained ed his consent to mirry Mademoiselle Jane." Duriiif; these tLuughts. he me

chanically opened the basket. & was Itok- j ingover the contents. One psmplet, called j Satirical Ulographyof Cardinal Muz- I riii, me this eye, und on thd first page he found the following p8r?grijh; "Before J taking holy orders, his lordslip the car! diual wore a sword. Us commanded a j company in 1625, and was entrusted by! tbe pope's euetals. Conti and Bugui, witli a private mission to. the Marquis de Cccuvres. His emineuce found him at; Grencb!s,nnd re r. ined there two months j under the name, of aptain Juliano. Julien read this passige once over ogsiu, his heart beating more madly each time, tha names, the date, the place, made mistake impossible. The captain thus spoken of must be the same who Lt Id him at his baptum, and to his astonishmen he discovered he was godsou to his eminence. His first feeling was surprise, his second, intense joy. He bounded from his seat, repealing: ' Godson to the cardinal godson to the? cardinal!" Leavirg all his pajers strewn on the ground, for any one who liked to take possession, he first rrn towards Roullard'g, in order to tell him and his ueice the good news; but suddenly he changej nif mi:u); perhaps th3 jV.vfller might refuse to believe him, and think it ouly an ein:se to be egtln tfis n into his fuvor. Under there circumstances, he might again ordr him away, and that was an insult i'npossible to be borne by u cardinal's goJitn. So, changing his course, he directed hid steps to his own little room by the Pall a i de Justice; and having possessed himself of his baptismal register which toufinned hi rlaims, he made the btst of his way to the Cardinal's residence. Arrived there, he asked fcr an old friend if his, called Pierre Choltart, who occupied the important oillce of head cook in the establishment. They hid seen little of each o'.her for 6-terei years, ou account of their different opinions on politics, so that Choltart scarcely recollected him. When thev had conversed for a few miuutts, Julien informed his friend he had come to see the cardinal. The cook thought him mad, when Julien insisted upou seeing him at any rifk, but without explaining why. "I suppose you thiuk you have only to send in your name to be received at once?" said Choltart, in an ironical tone. "Not exactly'' said, Julien "but 1 trust you will put me iu the way of seeing his eminence." "Oh, the way is perfectly simple, obtain an audience.' 'Now, really, Pierre, this is too bad. I come and ask your help as a friend, and you only make game of nie." Because, my dear fellow, there is uothing els to be done," "No, but is it really impossible to speak to the cardinal?" .. "Quite impossible. Here am I his head cook, positively belonging to his appetite, and yet I have never seen him." "Is this true?" "Perfectly true, and even now I am occupied iu preparing his chocolate." Oh, that chocolate, that is for the prime minister!" said Julien. looking into the silver pot which stood upon the stove. "By and by I will pour it into this cup acd a scrvan' will come for it, and take into the ves. bule up that staircase; he will then call the cardinal's valet, who will take the waiter from him and present it to the cardinal." 'So that the Teilet is the only person who approaches his eminence?" ' Precisely. I3ut there is the signs.." Just then a bell rang, and the cup was immediately filld and placed on the silver waiter by Pierre Choltart; he then went into the next apartment to fetch an estkroidered napki, worked in gold, with the cardinal's arms Julien' mind was made up in an instant: he rushed to the door through which the cook had just disappeared, and locked it, caught up the waiter, end flew up the Ftaircase pointed out to him, ran along several passsges, and on his arrival at the grand vestibule, opened the first door that presented itself, and it happening to be the right one, found LLnself face to face with the cardinal. The latter was busily engaged in writing, but the unaccustomed poise caused

him '.a look up, and great astonishment was depicted on his fare as his eyes rested upon the wild-lookiug unlivercd being before him. Whw ars you? Where did you come from? What do you wsut?" asked the cardinal in a hurried voice, ami in that strong Italian accent he hai never been able to luose. "It is really his eminence." said Juli en as ha almost dropped the waiter on the table: "then 1 am saved! Good eving gudfather!" The cardinal n se with a frightened air aud walked towards the bell. "Oh, you don't remember me'said Ju lien, laughing; I don't know how you should; you have, never seen me since 1C25." "How! since 1G2D?" repeated Maxarin, who betn to think he had a madman to deal with. What do you tneanT Well. I wonJer you can't guess, said the young men clapping his hands with delight. I am the sou of old mother Noiraud." The cardinal tstemed to reflect. "Oh, don't you remember Mother Noiraud, of Greenobh? Yuu lodged with her when you were a captive, and gave your name to her sou."

"I think I begin to recollect. But! i this son "Thai's 1" interrupted Julian withal gjy laugh. "Julien Noiraud of Grteno-j ble. The moment tint I found out you j were the captain Juliana of my baptism, J I ran üt once to tell you. I hope I have fovnd you well, godfather." 'There was something iu the complete ease end gaiety of the young niai that amused aud pleased the card'n.ul. He atked him his reasons for thinking himself his godon, and then desiied to look at the proof. Julien presented the register and the pamphlet. The cardinal read the letter from becinnins to end w ithwut a single change of expres-j sio::. L'-n he had finished, he looked up to Julien, and said: So you ere pleased at having dis covered your godfather?" "Oh am I not? If ycu only knew how badly 1 am in want of "help!" "The deuce you are!" said the cardinal. Then you are not well off1'' "Could'nt be worse," said Julien. "Aud I suppose you have sought me in hope that I shall assist you'" "I was sure that you w ho have 60 of ten sived France, would find no difficulty in helping a poor fellow like me' The cardinal smiled at the flattery coutaiued iu this speech, and ,the smile gave Julien courage to proceed; he told all about his leaving Roullard, and his wish to marry mademoiselle Jane, the nexce. only concealing the cause of his dismicsjl. "Well, well said the cardinal placing his hand on the young man's shoulder, "don't dispair, pGierino; I'll manage to be of use to you." "Ah, godfather," murmured Julien, flushing with joy. First of all, you must no longer be a shop bo) ." "I shall employ you here to take care of all my plate." Til take tare of it, godfather," "O.ily you won't receive my wages." "You must procure a court suit." 'I will. godfather' "You may lodge where you like." "Thank you godfather," "And as I intend to patronize you, I accord to you an unheard of privilege." "A privilege!" "Ves. truly, I permit you to call me godfather before all the world." Julien looked at the cardinl with the utmost surprise; but Mazarin repeated the permission, adding, he trusted to find him wot thy of the favor. He theu told him to retire, after having ordered him to appear in the new costume at his levee next day. Oi.e may easily imagine iho excessive disappointment of our hero. What had he gained? thought he. Lodgings, dress and food were to bo found out of his own email saving?, and yet all his lime was tobe at the disposal of the cardinal, and in return he hud only obtained iho empty honor of calling him godfuther. He heartily wished he had never discovered the identity of Cnplnin Juliano and his eminence: il would havo been far better to have gained the favor of Mr. Roullard, or sought employment elsewhere, thought he. But now that is forbidden: and 1 have often heard that people are seut to the Baitile, and left to dio and rot there, for less things than disobeying the orders of the prime minister, so I must resign myself to my fntc, Heavily oppressed by these feelings ho regained his garret, and with u sad heart awaited the morrow. Julien procured a court-suit next morning from a gentleman who had come from the country for nn audience, & was obliged to sell part of his wardrobe to defray the expense of returning to his province. This made a great hole in our hero's small purse, and h thought himself but ill repaid by iho false air of a gentleman; which lie kit sat badly on him. As he entered ihe audience chamber, all eyes were turned on him, and every one seemed to inquire of his neighbor who he could be. Commander de Souvre and M. Dubois were talking in the embrasure of one of windows; on his approach they ceased their conversation, and each appeared to n fleet where he could have seen him before. All at once ha heard a voice exclaim, iu a tone of surprise: 'I declare, it is Noiraud!' Julien jumped round and found himself face to faco with Roullard. 'How in the nam of fortune, dare you come here, nnJ in court-dress, tool' cried the stupirled joweler. 'I am like you, waiting for his eminence said Julion in an off-hand tone.

Ah I remcmbor. now aaid iho Com. i

mander da Souvre, drawing ne.nr; 'this is the young man you dismissed yesterday. A jeweler's assidani here!' exclaimed Dubois. Il is positively scandalous! What on earth can ho want wiih the cardinal?' 'Wo shall soon Ic-arn said Do Souvre, tor here ho comes.' j Ai that mement ihe door wss thrown j i m : 11 .,linii. i open, niiJ lazan.i emwis-u. no uuuced up the room bowing, nod slopping now and then lo listen U petitions &c. He oun arrived opposite Julien, und smiled very grociously ou seeing him. Gh, you are here said he, touching him playfully on ihe cheek with his glove. How are you to-d ty, provinu?' 'Very well, I thank you, godfalhor.' The word was mngic. lulien had scarcely pronounced it, w hen a visible movement was perceptible among i.e courtiers, .ill eyes w ere filed on him, and all mouths seemed lo repeat. 'Godson to tho cardinal -godson lo tho cardinal:' Envy and jealousy were at once j ainf J on each fece, aud Mtaarin, who from the corners of his ahrua eyes saw the effect produced immediately leaned on iho young man's sd.ou'cer, and continued his pregress rrund ihe room, talking to him in the msi familiar tor.e, and constantly asking him what reply he should give o tho different petitions presented to him. Julien, nut know ing whether he wns in jest or in earnost, : contented hxmfceli with replying: xes, godfather.' 'No, godfather' As you like godfather.' as the question required. And ihe courtiers all admired lus reserve, which they attributed to knowledge M.d caution. As Miz iriu retired, he told Julien tu join him in his study as sucn aa hercceicd a summons to ihat effect. He had scarcely disappeared, when the jsweler's assistant was overwhelmed with congralulilions. Noiraud tcarcely knew how to stammer out sufficient compliments. J The commander allowed tho crowd to uispcrse; and taking Julien aiide: I am delighted, dear sir yes, perfectly delighted at your good fortune,' Julien thanked hirn. . 'Iiis em'nenco appears to have a great affection for yt;u, and 1 am suro he would refuse you nothing.' Do you really think so?' s'ti l Noiraud, and immediately began to make up his mind to solicit ihecaidinals permission to return lo busit.e?s. I am quito sure of it,' returned the com mander, 'and to prove it, I brg yr.u to ;peak a good word for ino. My i.ephrw is wailing for tho command of a regiment; will you gfU il for him?' Me?' icu can obtain it Irom i.wn it uu ; choose.' I should rcaliy onlv bo tvo hsppy.' 'Then you promise?' 1 w ish I could; but ' Oh. don't say another word. If you only fulfil our wishes, you will not, believe me, find us ungrateful. As ho said ihis, tho commander pressed our hero's hand and walked awny. A minute later he met M. Dubois, who seized him by the arm. A word with you said he. 'I have just asked for a monopoly of the comm ;rce in T no f IV.e ?ii Vrifi' if Vtil hrnr-iira if f. r .... .1 . t me, you shall ai once reccivo e;x thoujand francs 'Six thousand francs!' repealed Julien, perfectly astounded. 'Oh, I perceive, I havo not offered a sufficient sum. Say ten twelve thousand then 'I assure you cried Julien, 'you are altogether mistaken. I have no influence whatever with his cm'iicnce; and your request being either granted or refused, does not in the least depend upou me Dubois looked at him fur a moment, and let go his arm. Ah, I see how it is muttered he 'my opponents havo already spoken to you. I don't know what you ir.eati.' 'No doubt they havecdTorcd ycu a larger sum.' 'Never mind never mind. I'll apply lo some one else. You must not think that because you are godson to his emi nenco you are to havo your own way in everything. At all events, we'll fight for it, sir, wj'll fight for it.' And Jean IJu bois disappeared in a pet, without wailing for a reply. Julien had not recovered from his surprise when ho was sent for by the cardinal, who at onco saw that something unpleasauthad occurred, and inquired as to what it was; Julion gladly repealed every word. 'Brsrro! bravo!' laughed his eminence. 'As they begged for your protection and good will, euro, you must really give it them.' What can you mean, godfather? Do you wish me to ask favors lor them?' 'No, no. Ask nothing. Tell me all, and let them imagine that you influence me. Ah, poverino, influence is well paid!' 'And ao, godfather, you wish me to receive 'Receive nil, Juliano; never refuse a good and willing offer, and if you can't always procure for the givers anything you wish, you can at least be gratclul, you know.' When Noiraud left tho cardinal, he was more than ever surprised; but uoihing can describe hia astonishment when, two daye afterward, he received three thousand francs, accompanied by a meat grateful note, from M. de Sruvro, thanking him for thecolonelship he had kindly procured for his nephew. As he finished reading, in rushed M. Dubois: 'You have gained the day. Monsieur Noireud said he, in a good humored tone, but with great respect. 'My opponents have conquered.
