but very few minutes had elapsed wien the usher announced Madame la Viscountess Beauharnois, who, being then separated from ber busband, was accompapied by Messieurs Killerman and Jourdan, and by her beautiful little son Eugene, then about eight years of age.Soou after, the highly scented and highly affected Madame de Geolis, with the Duc de Chartres, (now king of the French,) also Madame Campan, and other ladies and gentlemen of the Court and of the Palais Royal, were introduced; and about ten o'clock the party formed not only a line coup d'œil, but a truly extraordinary assembly of remarkable men and women.These different groups now began to mingle together, to converse loudly and facetiously.Wit and raillery were often made use of by the fair, and hilarity and good humor pervaded the whole society, while a profusion of all sorts of refreshments and out interruption.fully remarkable, that, with the exception of tiie foreign ambassadors bouored the party with their presence.About eleven o'clock, the hum and confusion of the assembly were succeeded by order ; the talkative guests resumed their respective seals, and a musical entertainment was commenced vy Madame de Stael taking her place at the piano, while Madame de Beauharoois seated herself at the harp, in order to play with our hostess a charming duet of Jomelli\u2014 While they were performing their parts with the skill and taste for which they were noted, two rather indifferent looking guests arrived, who, to avoid disturbing the music, took their seats beside the entrance door.1 ments of all, a rather shabbily dressed old geutle- pale young man, approached the throne of the queen of the party, while all the company, and especially myself, had theireyes fixed upon them.The old man was then unknown to me, but well kaown to all the assembly ; but the little, thin, and pale young man had never been seen before in any society, and, with the exception of Monge and La- grauge, nobody knew bim.The old geotlemag, leader of the historico-philosophical school of France, presented to Madame de Stael, as a young protege of his, M.Napoleon Bonaparte.All the lions aud lionesses shrugged their shoulders, made a kind of grimace of astonishment at heating such a plebeian name, and unmindful of the little, thin, and pale young gentleman, each resumed his conversation and amusement.Raynal aud Bonaparte, remained beside Madame de Stael, and l soon observed that Madame Beans ed a group around them.Condorcet, Alfieri and myself joiued the party.The Abbe spoke of his.protege as n very promising, highly talented, very.industrious, and well read young man, and particularly mentioned his extraordivary attainmeats-in ledge.Bonaparte bad left the service in consequence o having been ill-treated by his colonel, but that he wislied now to re-obtain a commission, because for BR the garden, was a group apparently in conversation The handsome Viscount Montmorency\u2014the fa- .delicacies were circulated among the guests with.But one thing was rather pain- - American and Swiss diplomatists, noue of the.The performance being ended, and both ladies - having deservedly received the thanks and compli: | man, followed by a plainly habited, little, thio, and who was the celebrated Abbe Raynal, then the - harnois, La Tour de Pin, Campan, and other ladies, not excepting the affected Madame de Geulis, forme: mathematics, military science, and Historical knows: tle then informed.Madame de Steel that, OU 00 pate 204 vues van a ae ee te pe EE mr same the future, merit, sud skill, and not intrigue and favoritism, would be unecessary for gaining rank and houor in France, Î Josephine Beauharnois, who bad been attentively bearing all, and who at the same time bad been minutely examining the countenance of Bonaparte, with that grace and unaffected kindness that was so natural to ber, said, * M L'Abbe, l should feel great pleasure indeed, if M.Bouaparte will allow me to introduce sud recommend him to the Minister of War, who is one of my most intimate friends.\u201d The thin and pale little gentleman very politely acoepted the offer, and animated probably by the prospact of a speedy appointment, soou began to show in his conversation, that at the top of this little body, Providence had placed a head that contained a great and extraordinary wind.lo a short time the great lions, moved by curiosity, flocked around to hear what was going on.Mirabeau was one of the curious ; and Madame de Stael, as soon as she ssw him approaching, said, with a smile, © M.le Comte, come here, we have got a littlegreat man ; 1 will introduce bim to you, for I koow that you sre oatursily fond of men of genius\u2019 The ceremony having been performed, the pale little gentleman shook hands with the Count de Mirabeau, who, I must say, did not appear as stooping to him, but conducted himself with all due politeness.Now political chit chat was introduced, ond the future Emperor of France took part in the discussion, sud often received much praise for his lively remsrks.When Mirabesu and the Bishop of Autun began to debate with Madame de Stael on the character end talents of Pitt, then prime minister of England, and the former styled bim \u201c a statesman of preparations, and * u minister who governed more by his threats thas his deoda,* Bonaparte openly showed bis diespprobation of such opinions.But when the Bishop of Autun praised Fox and Sheridan, for having asserted that the French srmy, by refusing to obey the orders of their superiors, and of the executive, bad set a glorious example to all the armies of Europe, because, by so doing, they had shown that wep, by becoming soldiers, did not cease to be citi- sens, Bonaparte said : \u20ac Exouse me, monseigaeur, if I dare to interrupt you ; but as | am an officer, I heg to speak my mind.It is true that I am a very young wap, and it may appear presumptuous in me to address an audience composed uf so many great men ; but as, during the last three years, | have paid the most intense attention to sll our political troubles and phases, and as see with sorrow the present state of our country, ! will expose myself to censure rather than pass unnoticed, principles which are not only unsound, but subversive of all established governments.As much 88 any of you, | Wish to ses all abuses, antiquated privileges, end usarped rights and immunities an- pulled : ney, us [ am at the beginning of my career, and without wealthy or powerful friends, it will be my duty and my best policy to support the progress of popular institutions, and ta forward improvement in every branch of the public administration.\u201cBut as in the last twelve months, | have witnessed repeated alarming popular disturbances, and seen our best sen divided into factions which promise to be irrecoacilzble, sincerely believe that now more than ever,a strict discipline in the army is ahsolutely vecessary fer tha safety of our constitutional govesrn- ment, and for the maistenance oforder.Nay, Iap- prebend that if our troopsare not compelled strictly to obey the orders of the executive, we shall soon feel the excesses of a democratic torrent, which must render France the most miserable country of the globe.Tha ministers may be assured, that if, by these and other means, the growing arrogance of the Parisian canaille is Dot repressed, and social order rigidly maintaived, we shall see not only this capital, but every other city in France, thrown into a state of indescribable anarchy, while the real friends of liberty, the enlightened patriots now working for the weal of France, will sink beneath @ set of leaders who, with louder outcries for freedom on their tongues, will be in reality only a set of eavages, worse than the Neroes of old!\" This speech of the hitherto unkuown youth, delivered with an air of authority which seemed natural to the epealser, caused a deep sensation, I remember seeing Lalande, Lacretelle aud Barthele- my, gazing at bim with the most profound attention.Necker, St.Just, and Lafavette, looked at each otber with an uneasy air.Mirabeau nodded oace or twica sigcificently to Tallevrand and Gre- goire, who appeared sheepish, downcast aod displeased.Alfieri, notwithstsndiog his aristocratic pride, sod bie natural dislike for young men\u2019s horangues, paid not only attention to the speaker, but was delighted ; aud Condorcet vearly made me cry out by the squeezes which he gave my hand at every sentence uttered by the little, thin, pale young gentleman.When he concluded, Madame de Stael, with her usual gravity, addressed the Abbé Raynal, warmly thanked him for having introduced to her so precocious and so truly wonderful a politician and statesman; and then turning to ber father and bis colleagues, sbe said, ** I hope, gentlemen, that you will take a warniog from what you bave heard.\u201d Io short, the slender youth, who had come to the party a perfect nonentity, became all of a sudden the prime lion aad the object of general remark.But the individual most affected and most pleased of all was the Abbé Raynal.The countenance of this gond old man manifested the rapturous feelings of his micd in witnessiog the triumph of his young protege, who, a few weeks after, through Madame de Beauharnois, obtained a new commission.Raynal lived to hear of the splendid exploits of Bonaparte at the taking of Toulon, to witness his conquest of the Convention in 1795, to hear of his appointmeot as Commander-in-chief of the army of the interior, aud alto of his being named Com- mander-in-chief of the army in Italy, io February, 1796.Had he lived a few years longer, he would probably have assisted at his marriage with Madame de Vicontesse Josephine de Beauharnois, for the nuptials took place on the 9th of March, and be died on the 6th, 1796.* # tis herdly necessary to remark, that the time and circumstances of the first acquaintance of Napoleon with both Josephine and Madame de Steel are here stated dif.ferendy from accounts bitherto current.The Editors baving made this remark to the writer of the article, were favered with a note assuring them \u2018hat the other accounts were undoubtedly wrong, es he feels fully convinced that the true facts are as he here states them from his personal observation.UNITED BTATES.Destructive Fire IN GUADALOUPE.\u2014Captain Kirwan, of the schooner Thomas Hooper, at Baltimore from Antigua, reports that a fire broke out in Basseterre, Guadaloupe, on the 26th of August, and had burnt nearly all the town down, and was burping atill on the morning of the 27th, at the time the Steamer left.\u2014 Loss of property said to be $1, 000,000.\u2018 Basseterre, the capital of Guadalonpe, lies about twenty-two miles West of Pointe-a-Pitre.It is only about a year since Pointe-a-Pitre Was destroyed by an earthquake.Bssseterre isa smaller town, with a population of about 9000.Having a bad harbor, it carries on but little trade, and is supported chiefly by the residence of the Government.(NW.Y.Journal of Com.) + | Boiron, Sept.£1.\u2014Larer.\u2014By way of Havana, we receive the following :\u2014Thesteamer of the 5th from Vera Cruz had arrived there.It Lrought intelligence of the death of the wife of Ssuta Anas, snd the withdrawal from the secretaryship of state of Senor Bocanegra, the state of whose health compels his retirement from publio affairs.He is succeeded by Don Crecencio Rejou.The governor of Sonora is reported to have had an action with the insurgents of that proviace,in which, at the head of 200 men, he obtained a victory over them.A violent hurricane occarred at Metamoras on the 4th of August, partially destroyiog the town sad killing some parsons.Our minister, Mr.Shannon, had reached Vera Cruz io the Falmouth on the 28th Aug.On bis way thence to the city of Mexico iu the diligence, he vehicle was attacked by robbers, and the passengers, including Mr.8,, rifled of their money.CANADA.ert, ST.CATHARINES, Sept.20.\u2014 INCENDIARISM.\u2014On the mornings of Saturday and Sunday last, at about three o'clock, the repose of the inhabitants of this plave was disturbed by an alarm of fire, and the slacrity with which they turned out to combat the raging element was commendable.It is & matter of painful regret that both fires were occasioned by incendiories, who are yet undiscovered.The first was the Colored Baptist Church\u2014a very respectable new structure, principally raised, we huve been told, by the munificence of one individual.Being in the vicinity of the barracks occupied by the Rifle Company, the fire was almost instantly discovered by the sentry, who gave the alarm, and by the promptness of tbe military, aud other inhabitants of that end of the village, the fire was got under without doing very extensive injury.The second wus a straw stack, pear the red mill, belonging to Mr.Calvin Phelps.By means of a short ladder, which had been left against the stack, fire was communicated half way up it, and it was owing to little else thao darkness that the villain mads his escape.The engine was soon on the ground, but it was a long time before it could be got into operation.Mr.P, has offered a reward of } $100 for the conviction of the incendiary, as also $25 for that of a man who was heard to express threats as to the destruction of other property.Riot oN THE CasaL.\u2014 Some fighting took place on Saturday last, on the canal, between this and Thorold, and in the afternoon the Rifle Company stationed here were sent up to assist in restoring quiet, It appears that some time last week, a Con- naught mao died in coasequence of a wound from a knife, received from a Leinster man, in a quarrel; and, on examination, the man slayer was justified, on the ground of self-defence.The former party being the.strongest, determined ou revenge, and soon forced the others from the works, and their vengeance then fell on the shanties, several of which wera burned ; but the appearance of magistrates, policemen and military stayed the tumult, and the presence of the two former on the ground, for two or three days aud nights, prevented any further violence.The parties are all again peaceably st work.The competition among the millers here has got are crowding it in pretty fast.This quotation is higher in proportion than we find it elsewhere\u2014at Port Stanley it is 29.104.te 3s, 13d.\u2014at Toronto, 3s.4d.to 3s.10d.\u2014 Port Hope, 3s.to 35.9d.Flour in Montreal is stated at 23s.9d.to 24s, 6d., tbough a willing firm here have been advised of a sale on their account at 24s.9d.In New-York, Genesee wheat is at 90 and 92 cents, and flour at $4 18% and $4,22.ToronTo, Sept.24\u2014We perceive by public notice of sale, that a herd of fat catlle was seized a few days ago by the Collector of Customs at Gava- noque, wben about to be brougbt into the Province from tbe United States, witbout the payment of the duties.We have upon former occasions spoken out against the system of smuggling which prevails tosoch an extent throughout the Province, and viewed it \u201c8s a corroding evil that ests into the very vitals of tie revenue, and presses with a leaden weight apon the fair trader, who is satisfied with such profits as the law allows.\u201d The revenue collected at the Port of Toronto, for the year ending 5th Jan.1842, was.£ 4,600, To the same period in 1843.\u2026.\u2026\u2026.\u2026.\u2026.8,800 Aud to the same period in 1844.20,000 And, from present prospects, the probability is, that the revenue at Toronto, for the year ending 5th January 1845, will be no less than £30,000.This great increase in the revenue of the port, is partly produced by the admission of tea from the United States, upon payment of duty, (tea provious to 6th July, 1843, being a prohibited article), aud by the general change effected in the tariff at that period, as well as, by the collection at this port, of certain duties which were formerly paid at Montreal, and are now brought into the Upper Province under the bonding system,\u2014more particularly the duties on sugars which amount ia the course of the year to a very considerable sum.It is, moreover, to be observed that, smuggling is nevertheless carried on to a great extent, although, if we believe the complaints that are often generally made against the custom-house at Toronto, it would appear that the revenue laws are carried out, so far as regards that port, with tolerable severity.While the government of the United States has two revenue cruisers on Lake Ontario, the government of this Province has not even one, on the great Lakes by which the country is bounded, and along the vast extent of whose coasts, the greatest facilities for smuggling are afforded.We have just been informed, that a British vessel was detected in smuggling a few days ago, byous of those Uaited States revenue cruisers, and seized and brought into the Port of Sackett\u2019s Harbour, where she still remains, and will in all probability be sold, with her cargo, for the offence committed.There have been about 150 seizures made at the Port of Toronto, since June, 1842,\u2014amongst them gix vessels, and the proportion of value of those seizures appertaining to the government, amounted to £1200; but still, enough has escaped detection during the period referred to, io make it a profitable business for the smuggler.\u2014( Colonist.) During last week, the weather was excessively hot, the thermometer being between 80 and 90 in the shade, in the mornings,\u2014but for the last day or two, there has been a complete change, and the weather hos assumed quite a wintry aspect,\u2014cold and chilly during the day, with increased cold at night.\u2014(1b.) : Fire in Toronro \u2014On the night of Friday last, a fire broke out in the premises of Mr.Wakefield, auctioneer and commission merchant, King street and property from £100, to £200, value in was destroyed.Kingston, Sept.24.\u2014We mentioned a fortnight since the disease in the potatoe crop, rendering them unfit for food, even for eattle, We learn that a farmer in Loughborough has fed some of these diseased potatoes to his hogs, and they have died in consequence thereof.The late news from England hae produced a fall in the price of wheat and flour.The highest price for wheat in this market is now 3s.6d, per bushel.MoNTREAL, Sept.23.\u2014~STOoRM AND MELANCHOLY Loss or Lirg.~~0u Saturday afternoon about half- past four o'clock, this city was suddenly visited by a squall from the North aud West, resembling in fury a tropical tornado.It is our painful duty to relate, that during the height of the squall a melancholy catastrophe occurred on the river.Mr.Cook, the writing-master at the High School of Montreal, in company with two brothers of the name of Dean, lately from Eog- land, and a gentleman named Wilkinson, were on their way to Sorel, on n voyage of pleasure, when opposite Point au Tremble they were overtaken by the full fury of the squall, their canoe was upset, and, melancholy to record, all four suuk to rise no more.A person who wasin a canoe about ten yards behind them, and who narrowly escaped the same fate, relates that their canoe was whirled twice round, and immediately overturned, aod that uot one of the party ever appeared on the sbrface.A long and unsoccesbful search was made yesterday evening for the bodies, and last night four canoes, with lights, &ec., were despatched to the scene of the accident with the intention of contiouing the search all night.\u2014( Pilot.) MoNTREAL, Sept.24.\u2014Some of our contempo- rarios have alluded to an accusation brought against Captain WaLLace, of the bark \u2018Jane Brown; in a manner to say the least of it, in a country where British penal law prevails, very upusual.The Captain, who bears a very high character, has been liberated on bail, which shows at least that the charge about which the accusers have hitherto had all their own way\u2014is far from being clear or just in the eyes of the Judge who bailed him.More than this we will not say at present; sor indeed should we have adverted to the matter at all, but for the very un-English treatment the Captain received in a contemporary yesterday.\u2014( Courier ) RepLy or His ExcELLENCY.To the Committee of Ike Montreal Temperance So- sciely.I thank you, Gentlemen, for your obliging welcome to this city, and still more for the gratifying intelligence which your address conveys of the success of your important exertions.Drunkenness is the baneful cause of misery, death, vice, and crime.Temprrance is the blessed gourco of cheerfulness, health, domestic happiness, respectability and virtue.All who are engaged in promoting this rightesus cause, are entitled to the gratitude of mankind;

veither has she ever possessed or desired to possess, the right of any such interference.\u201d The Syuod expressed great satisfaction at the reception of such a kiod and affectionate letter from the Parent Church, and appointed a Committee to answer it.The Committee appointed on the furmer day reported on the course to be followed in reference to the adherents of the Church in those congregations whose Ministers have seceded.The Resolution- on this subject passed by the Syuod breathe an ex- colleat spirit.On Saturday the Synod passed an act declaring the spiritual independence of the Syood, for the purpose of being read to and assented to by Probationers and Ministers seeking admission to the Body.\u2014[ Herald].Mox~TrEAL, Sept.26th.\u2014Fire.\u2014We regret to learn thata house and some out-buildings, belonging to the Hon.John Molson, on Boucherville Island, were destroyed by fire, on Tuesday evening, about nine o°clock, We have not been able to ascertain how the fire originated : it was distinctly seen from the city.«+ The Writ has been issued for the election for the City of Montreal, John Young, Esq., is appointed Returning Officer, SHERBROOKE, Sept.26.\u2014A Fisu Storv.\u2014In the Montreal Gazette of Sept.17, a correspondent tells a wonderful story of a fatal disease among the trout in the River Magog, in this District, infecting nearly the whole tribe, in consequence of which the trouting is said to have \u201c proved very unsuccessful this year.\u201d Having made inquiry of several individuals, who have been in the habit of fishing in the Magog almost daily this season, we can learn nothing either of the disease, or the insect mentioned ; and so far from the tronting having been destroyed, it bas never proved more successful than this season, It isonly a few days since, that two gentlemen took 90 trout, all fat and in good condition, in a couple of hours, from the Magog.Porarors.\u2014 We are sorry to learn that the disease which has destroyed the potatoes so extensively in the United States, and in some parte of this Province, has also appeared in these Townships.We notice by the Caledonian, Vt.that some farmers have lost their hogs by feeding them with diseased potatoes.So general has been the destruction of this crop that in many places in Vermont, potatoes are now selling at 2s.6d.per bushel.On Wednesday the 18th ihstast, we had the pleasure of witnessing the interesting ceremony of the laying of the Corner Stone of the New Epis- cops!

Life Premium is in general required in the first instance ; the difference being alter wards made up, either by a gradual increase of Premium, during a given period, or, by a corresponding gradual reduction of the sum Assured ; the option, in every case, being given tu the Policy holder of selecting the mode which may best suit his object or convenience.The effect of an Assurance on a person\u2019s own life, is Lo create aT once a Property in Reversion which can sy »0 oTHER MEANS be realized.Take, for instance.the case of a person at the age of Thirty, who, by the paymeut of £5 15s.10d., can become, at once, possessed of a bequeathable property of £1000, subject only to the condition of his continuing the same payment quarterly, during the remainder of his life\u2014a condition which may be fulfilled by the mere saving of Nine shillings weckly, in his expenditure.Thus, by the exertion of a very slight degree of economy\u2014such, indeed, as can scarcely be felt as an inconvenience, he may at once realize a capital of £1000, which he cai bequeath, or dispose of in any way he may think proper.1n addition to the published rates, an extensive set of Tables has been computed for Assurances of Joint Lives, the survivor of two or more lives, and for contingent Assurances: Also, for Reversionary Annuities, Endowments for Widows and Children, and for every possible contingency, aftecting human life, against which it may be prudent or expedient to provide, \u2019 \u2018The undersigned would particularly recommend, A Table of Decreasing Rates of Premium, on a novel, and remarkable plan ; the Policy holder having the option, of discontinuing the payment of all further premiums, after Twexty, Frereen, Tex, and even Five.years.\u2014and the Policy still remaining in force.In the first case, for the full amount originally assured, and in either of the three other cases, for a portion of the same, according to a fixed and equitable Scale, endorsed upon the Policy.All claims payable within Taree Moxrus, after the proof of death.No proof of birth is required at the time a claim is made, the age of the Assured being, 1n every case, admitted in the Policy.cannot, under any circumstances, be afterwards called in question.Policies effected by parties on their own lives, are not rendered void in case of death by duelling, or the hands of Justice.In the event of suicide, if the Policy be assigned to a bona fide Creditor, the sum Assured will be paid without deduction.1f the Policy be not so assigned.the full amount of Premiums received thereon, will be returned 10 the family of the Assured.Policies having become forfeited, in consequence of the non-payment of the Renewal Premiums.may be revived without the exaction of a fine, at any time within twelve calendar months, on the production of satisfactory evidence relative to the state of health of the Assured, and the payment of Interest on the Premiums due.By these and similar Regulations, many of which are peculiar to this Establishment, itis presumed that the important object has been attained, of rendering a Policy of Assurance, as complete an Instrument of security as cao possibly be desired.; ; \u2018The necessary forms, and every requisite information, as to the mode of effecting Assurances, may be obtained, either by letter, or personal application, to
