gave of liim-elf, came to sojourn anions; j them for th. purpose of instructim the ! sober aod staid citizens in the '"noble science of defence." He took lodjjins in Kir.g street, at the sign of the Cal- " l'atrot, from whence he issued his c:;rds; giving notice that at all hours of '.ho dav, he held himself in readiness at Ills room, to give lessons in the noble exercise of the broad sword. At the bottom of his bills was appended the following: "Any gentleman who is so good as to join in the amusement, and
escapes three cuts without a parry to

of attack, ".leieinl vourselt; and he commenced a furious attack upon the stranger. The one was all lire and impetuosity the o'.her tool and collected. The Frenchman evidently had
the advantage in activity, while

at once the pride and feeling of all the young blades in town who had ever "don'd glove" or handled foil, and many in consequence were the encounters with the dapper Frenchman.

lions, w hen an unusually large number were looking on to witness his dexterity in cutting and flourishing, and listening to the oft-repeated challenge, that a m.ti stept out from the crowd, and very coolly walking forward, drew bis glove from his hand and cast it upon the platform, in token of his acceptance of the challenge. He was completely enveloped in a large dark colored cloak
of coarse materials, w hich, in the act j of drawing his glove, fell open, and disclosed to the view of the astonished bystanders a ponderous btoad sword buckled to his thigh, that, judging from its size, w ould be useless in any but the hands of " Willie Wallace,"" or auDoug1.15S3 of the bloody heart.' This togeth
er with a slouched hat, constituted the whole of his visible costime. He appeared rather above the common siz". with a form that denoted great strength and activity. The Frenchman at first appeared utterly confounded at this ui, looked for occurrence; but recovering himself in a moment, he, with the politeness and urbanity of his nation, invited his
J 7 daring opponent lo ascend the stage. The by slanders, when they had recovered from their surprise at the challenge of Le Cain being accepted, were very eager to ascertain who this feailess being was. "Who is he?"' and "what is hef were questions reiterated from one to another; but who he was, or what he was, no one knew, and no cne
could tell. No one had observed him until he had separated from the crowd to accept ihe challenge. As for Le Cain, w hen he found himself driven to the issue upon his own term, with a crowd of w itnesses, among whom w ere a number of his pupils, and all of w hom had heard his repeated boastings, he was determined that this unknown, who, in his opinion, was hoping to disgrace him. should pay dear for his temerity. Willi ihesc thoughts in his mind, he addressed the stranger: "You shall play a bloody game for this, sir broad rim."' W am here," replied the unknown, in a calm and clear voice. 'to puni-h a vain boast; let the result be a God wills." "Well spoken," said Le Cain, hh face reddening with passion at the strangers coolness, "but are you aware that your opponent is the best swordsman in the country? This information did not produce the cd'ect upon the slouched hat, lhat Le
Cain evidently intended it should. In
