The robbers followed, but not without precaution. At ;the eutrasce of the cellar, provided with a strop trap door, a man was posted a sentinel. The baroness did sot Wm the least notice of this. Sloe conducted the whole troop to a vault at the furthest extremity of the cellar.— She unlocked it and in the corner of this reeas stood the chest she had described.— "Here," said she, giving the captain a bunch of keys, "here unlock it, and take what yuir God as a wedding gift, if you can obtain the canoeist of your companions as readily u you have gained mine." The rubber tried one key after another. but sone would fit. He grew impatient, and the bareness seemed still more so. "Lead me them," said she, "1 aball find the way sooner.

This was the work of • single moment. In the next she flew across the courtsyard, and with a candle set fire to a detached pigstye. The watchman in the neighbouring village, per• calving tho flames, inetaotty gave the aiarik. In • few minutes the inhabitants were out of their hebs, snd a crowd of farmers and their servants hastened to the mansion.— The baroness waited for them at the gate of the court -yard.

With reference to that intimation, i have to inform you that it is not the intention of her Majesty's present advisers to propose such a measure to parliament this session. They have in the first place ,taken into consideration that since any epibion upon this difficult gnestinn was expressed by the legislature of Canada, a general election has taken place in the reelect, sad it is as yet uncertain what the view of the new Co/ ""'J O4 es, Assembly as to the disposal of the Clergy Maly 7th, 1853.
