A month after these events--on the first of May, that festival of sunlight,
flowers, and universal rejoicings--two couples, followed by many friends
and brilliant attendants, went from the small house on the banks of the
Seine, to the village church of Neuilly. The Prince de Maulear, made young
by happiness, had Marie d'Harcourt on his arm. The Duke escorted the
Marquise, and the Count and Von Apsberg followed them. The priest stood at
the foot of the altar. This priest, who made four persons happy, but who
looked to heaven alone for his own happiness, was Taddeo Rovero.
The three fiery Carbonari gradually felt their revolutionary ardor grow
dull. The reason is, these three men were now attached to the society they
had sought to destroy, by strong ties. Two were bound to it by family
bonds, and the other by religion.
_Carbonarism_ was not crushed in Europe, by the disasters of the French
association. It slumbered for ten years, but awoke in 1830. The tree has
grown, and the world now gathers its bitter fruits.
Stenio Salvatori received in Italy the punishment due his great crimes in
France. His vile heart became the sheath of the stiletto of one of the
brethren of the _Venta_ of CASTEL LA MARC.
Our old acquaintance, Mlle. Celestine Crepinean, touched by divine grace,
repented of having made so bad a disposition of her pure and virgin love.
Like Magdalen, she threw herself at the feet of her Savior, and lived to an
advanced age, greatly to the edification of the faithful as dispenser of
holy water at the church of Saint THOMAS AQUINAS.

A GHOST STORY OF NORMANDY.
BY THE AUTHOR OF "HAMON AND CATAR; OR, THE TWO RACKS."
From Bentley's Miscellany.
I.
On a fine summer evening, in 1846, I left my house, which was in the
neighborhood of Honfleur, Normandy, to take a stroll. It was July. All the
morning and all the afternoon the sun had been busily pouring down streams
of radiance like streams of boiling water, and I had kept the house, and
kept it closely shut up too, till the orb of day had gone some way down
towards the sea, as if, like a fire-eater, or like a locomotive, to get a
_drink_ after its work.
