Mr Robert Motto°, the stipendiary
asegietrate stns Hahfsz, was for a !an; time
s pomiseat lawyer in active practice in
Halifax, Nova Scotia. He was chiefly
distinguished as a criminal leveret, and
many stirring Pendants of real We have
marked his long professional career. One
dramatic story, owing to its superior his-
toric interest, is worthy of beim made
public.
One morning in the year IBiG Mr
Motton was seated In his law office as
estr•I,when his clerk announced a visitor
waiting to see him. Ida being shown in,
Mf Mutton ubeerred a tell lady, appar-
ently young sod c usety veiled. After
the usual salutations .be was invited to a
asst. !Upon her lifting her veil a retaark-
ably handsome face was revealed; c•m-
piexion dark, a Roman nese, jet -Link

piercing brightness wrench would bard
into flame st the first touch of passion.
After a little preliminary conversation
Mr Mutton discovered thet his Interest-
ipg c tent had called to cumuli him pro-
fessionally upon a matter of considerable
delicacy. Hahfax,as is generally kuovn,
is s garriso° town -now the only garri-
• os :awn In (;•sada. At that time there
were mime regiments of British regains
stationed there ; together with detach-
ments of artillery and engineer.. Gee
of these was the Ritteeoth of the line,
which Lai been ordered to llahlaz to-
wards the end of Dell, on the occasion
of the threatened difficulty between
Greet Britian and the United etates over
the Trent affair. flee of the officers o:
that regiment was a certain Lieutenant
Albert A°drrw t'insen, of the second
battalion. It was in relation to this
young of5cer that the tall and veiled lady
bad called to consult Mr Mottos.
Before proceeding with the eel deet of
her visit, it may be well to make the
reader scineinted with the young lady.
She gsve het nacre se Miss Lewiy, sad
that was the name by which she was
known in Halifax. But her real name
was Adele Hugo, and she was the favor-
ite daughter of the great French poet and
patriot, 1 ictor. Hugo. Thu narra tee
might not be without passing interest in
the can of any young woman, but it de-
rives its chief importance from being w- 1
e coiated with the daughter of cne of tke
g reatest of modem poets, whose work*
have thrilled Lee continents, whose
poetry has almost revolutionized liters.
tore and whose genius was employed
with terrible force ss the service of his
• country --of liberty and equality. The
incident, of this s. cry are identified
with the great man himself, and arose in
great measure from the exidents of his
fortune.
It will be recollected that the famous
roup d'etat took place in Paris on De-
cember 2, 1601. Vieth Hugo was one
of the first persons rroneibed by Louis
Napoleon. He bad persistently resisted
the attempts of Bonaparte and his ad-
herents to destroy the republic and re-
establish the empire, and was con-
sequently especially onnoxious to the new
ruler. He int took refuge with hie
family in Belgium Political pressure
secured his expulsion from that country,
and he then took °p s residence in the
Island of Jersey, and finely settled
down in Guernsey, everywhere fulminat-
ing against the emperor, until ti.e fall of
the empire in 1870
Mademoiselle Holo mule known the

The matter is not of great importaoes.
It is suffictsat to lou• that Piano lett
Brunets for England, and un fearing
hie ladylove he promised, with every
token of sisoertty and bocor, that she
sboule join him in England, and that
the sasrrtege, which bed teen secret io
brussels, should be publicly celebrated
in an English church. Just at this point
-probably December, 18161 -hie regi-
ment was ordered tor Halifax, and Lieu-
tenant Pinson wrote to Mademoiselle
Hugo infuresisl her of this fact, and
aakn°g her to emu him in - endo°, have
their marriage duly celebrated, Dud go
tugethsc to Haltf�c.
When this proposition was received,
it was duly discussed in the Hugo tasti-
ly circle. Victor Hugo would sot en-
tertain the ides. Ne demanded that
L euteoent Pitmen should come to Bros -
eels and merry his daughter there.
Madame ilugo agreed with this ; bet
Adele was infatuated, and her fiery
spirit would not acme' this wise paternal
c,us.el. She insisted upon going to
Loudon at all hazards, and even in de-
6•ose of all social rules. When it was
found that the impetuous girl was deter-
mined to have her way, her mother at
length acquiesced so far as to accompany
her to London.
tic their arrival they found, to their
morudcataon and chagrin, that Lieute-
nant Pusan had sailed with his regi-
ment fur Halifax, and without leaving
any menage or satisfactory explanative ;
indeed, the circomstenees gave indubita-
ble erdeoce of desertion. Adele and
her mother had no other course than to
return at once to Brussels.
But the unhappy girl was madly in
love ; she belonged to that class of in-
tense natures which ars led away by
passion, and she could an rest content
apart from het lover. Clandestinely she
left Brussels and took mange on board
a steamer, said to be the Great Eastern,
for New cork. tin her arrival there she
started fur Halifax. whore she assumed
the name of Mies Lowly. Alas ! fur her
fond dreams of a happy re -anion with
the man in whom all her ardent and
unconquerable affections were centered
She found him indifferent ; she resorted
to every means to secure his rettard, hut
her love was spurned. All her time
and attention were devoted to him ; she
sent notes to him daily, but without
effect. It would nut be just to regard
Pitmen s rmdsct as the remelt of hese
hearties/nes ; it may be that the impor-
tunities of the frenzied girl had produc-
ed a reaction in his mind and heart. It
may be, also, that he saw eviderce of
that lack of mental equipoise which has
sadly enough developed into permanent
and hopeless insanity. It is the fact, at
all erents, that he entirely repulsed his
'ureter sweetheart, and refused to re-
new the iutimacv acd regard of those
halcyon days when they talked of lova in
£ruaeels.
The story of her residence in Halifax
at" a very sad one. She remained three
or four years, during which she was
shied, engaged in dogging her hirer by
n ight and by day, but without success.
Sbe had at least two lodging places
durin;q her stay, the Ent be with Mn
Saunders. She seat frequent letters to
Pinson, and received quite a number in
return,brought by his servant. Frumthou
who knew her intimately, so as pain-
fully interesting particulars can be glean-
ed of her life. She was eorsentnc to a
remarks:de decree. In going out of the
house ahe was intangibly closely veiled.
Sometimes at night she used to disguise
herself in maleapparel,and walk through
the streets wearing; a tall hat and flour -
joking • delicate cane. The details of
bet- life, fur the year and a half she
boarded at Mn S•unden', were publish-
ed nearly two years ago in one of the
Halifax papers. When she first arrived
in Halifax she stopped at the Halifax
Hotel, and through the sgeney of a
Freneh cook there she secured lodgings
at Mn Rounders'. She hired a room in
the house, which she furnished herself,
and was to board herself. According to
the landlady ahe ate but little, and did
very little cooking ; her chief diet was
bread and butter sad chocolate. The
Saunders, under the belief that she was
wused often to fernab bet with
Her employment was writing ; her
handwriting was most beautiful -like
copper -plate impressions. She Doos had
great messes of manuscript. Mr Motion
mentions that., she used to bring Lege
boodles 04 beautifully written manoserigt
to hie office, and offered it to him, say-
ing :-" Publish this some time, mod Ion
will create • great sensation and make
a fortune." Unfortunately, Mr Mottos
had not much interest in literary mat-
ters at that time, and feeling, no doubt,
that his fair client's mind was not
w ell balanced, did not accept the offer.
Some literary interest might have ser-
roseded her atones at this sad period of
her life. She owe told Mr Mottoo,aftsr
he became aware of leg identity that her
father weed to tell her that she wrote
better than be did, sod with more

After this Mn Saunders was able to
obtain the true scary of her lodger, and
.he felt oertait that so dutinguisbed a
man as her lather would nut care to have
his daughter hvmg comparatively desu-
tate of the ordinary oomforls of life. Kee
accordingly took the liberty of &ending
him • letter, detailing fully the present
position and circumstances of his wander -

response from Victor Hogo, in which he
thanked Mrs Sunders most profusely
for her kind interest in Adele, requested
bee to make every neoe.ery provision
for her slothing,comfort and respectabili
t,, and assyred her that he would be ou-
ly too happy to meet all expeoditures.
All bills were promptly paid by the poet.
A number of letters were received by
Mn tiaunders from Victor Hugo, but
not much importance was attached to
them, beyond the subject -matter, by the
recipients, and most of them were mis-
laid. When one of Mrs !islanders' daugh-
ters new up and was made acquaint-
ed with the story of the young lady, she
began to search the buuse for Hugo's let-
tere, and succeeded in finding two or
three of them. All of these letters speak
of Miss Lowly es Madame Pinson, and
none of them speak of her as his dauabt•
er. He describes her as a lady of high
position and influential relations, in
whom be took • greet interest.
Out" cf the.. letters, which are now in

son. M Hugo has not forgotten
the kindness of Mr and ala Saunders.
and trusts that under their good care
the box will be delivered as quick as pas-
sible to the young lady.
Another Of the letters is as follows :-
Guernsey, Feb. 5, 1866.
My Dan Mas SAt-xogRA,-I am in-
deed exceedingly thankful to you for
your kind note. Your information has
been most weleome.. .. 1 hope Miss
Lowly will at last be induced to come
home to her own family. Her mother
is very anxious to get her home, and
has unfortunately been prevented by a
serious indiapoaition from crossing over
to Halifax. She intends doing .o as
soon as the spring will come. U.tdl
then be kind enough to give information
which I will faithfully transmit to her
friends, and for which they are extreme-
ly obliged to you. T.11 me also, in
your letter, how 1 can repay you for the
stamps' you are affixing to your letters,
I can, indeed, very easily repay you for
these trifling expenses, but never for
your Christian kindness.
It will now be easy to understand the
purpose of Miss Hugo'a visit to Mr Mot-
ton'a office. Wearied with a fruitless
penult of her faithless and callous lover,
and finding the time approaching when
his regiment would be ordered away to
another station, as a last resort she went
to consult a lawyer to see, perchance, if
there was any remedy in the law -if any
mews existed of compelling Pitmen to
do justice alike to her affections and her
honor. She bad the agony to bear
among the current getup of the city
that Pinion had become engaged do a
lady in fashionable society, residing in
Dartmouth -a town situate nn the oppo-
site aide of Halifax harbor. It is, of
coarse, impcssibfe to report all that pass-
ed between attorney and client in the
secrecy of the consulting -room. It is
sufficient to say that the story of her re-
lation. with Pilsen was fully unfolded,
end though *he ease did not present
many points r the consideration of •
lawyer, yet Mr Mottos vise a far inter-
ested in her case as to seed a letter to
Pitmen. The circumstances of his re-
lations with Mademoiselle Hugo becom-
ing known to his Dartmouth friends,
all social ioteronurse was at once termi-
nated by the young lady and her family.
But really nothing of any consequence
could be done by Mr Motion. A suit
for breach of promise would have been
en unsatisfactory remedy, and no legal
evidence of a merri.ge which would he
recognized is the cowls in Nova Scotia
who available. Mademoiselle Hugo used
to •peak cf her wren(• to her lawyer
with burning cheek and flashing eye.
Her eyes he describes as being almost
teftibl• in their Eery brightness when
she was unused. She repeatedly de
el•red in pamionate words that *be was
Pins•n's wife in the sight of Heaven,
and that he should never merry another
woman.
A word may he devnled to Limit/mast
Pitmen. Several persons remember his
well. He was never distinguished from
the ordinary subaltern in a Hellish regi-
mes', except, perhaps, that he appears
to have beee rather more of • dandy.

As the time drew near for the tlig-
tenth Regiment to Isere Halifax, the
isfstestd Adele was keenly alert fur
the movement* of her truant lover.
Only use line of English steamers thea
called at Halifax, and th.n always cease
to Ceaard's wharf. Every steamer day,
filled with a rages fear that Plume
would attempt to make his .soape, she
took • cab and her elution( and west to
the wharf, there to watt said watch if
Pinsen embarked for Eogland, and
reedy 1• that case to follow him wher-
ever be might go. This oocured several
times, but be •took this meats elf
leaving.
At length the mimeo' embarked for
Barbadoes-the station to which it was
ordered. Faithful to her wusiuu, Adele
promptly followed and took up bee resi-
dence in the little town shore the gar -
neon was ata1oued. She lodged with a
bin Chaddertoo. He.. she devoted
herself to writing, and walked in the
streets in dowdy apparel and with an
air and manner so eccentric that she
was subjected to jests and ribaldry. In
time site came to be aesociated with
Captain Pmeen-who. it seems, had got
his oompany-and was known to the
people of the little town as Madame
Pitmen.
The rest is easily told. After the sad
sojourn in Halifax, Auele Hugo weaned
out her steadfast heart in Barbados).
Many harrowtug details of her life in
both these places have been purpueely
withheld. The generous heart will never
seek to draw the veil from the hidden
depths of human grief and misfortune.
An exile frum home, (needs and
country -a pour unhappy waif in a
lately and comfortless world ! With
her beauty, her talents and her family
connections she might have been an
ornament of European society. But
that all-powerful imputes of love, which
has often enough turned and overturned
the lives of men and the events u( hls-
.ory, irresistibly bon her on to • life of
u nspeakable misery. Reason became
dethroned, and she was finally immured
in an insane asylum, where she still
ekes out a bligbtei life. Her father. at
hu death, bequeathed her half his fur -
tune -two million francs.
A sad, sad story ! From the earliest
ages until now the human heart, its at-
fectons and griefs, have absorbed the
keenest interest of mankind. It is the
old, old story that has thrilled the pages
of romance, and crested the numberless
books of fiction which fill the world,
and welch it will continue to devour "as
long as the heart bath pinions, as long
as life hath woes." The story becomes
of proloonder interest when It belongs to
real life. Troth is. indeed, more won-
derful, more dramatic, than fiction. As
Carlyle expressively says :-"Now and
formerly and evermore. Romance exists,
strictly speaking, in Reality alone. The
thing that is, what can be so wonderful ;
what, especially to es that are, can have
such significance 1' The story of Adele
Hugo's blighted life will live as Tong as
the works of her illustrious father. Hie
genius will evoke the highest admira-
tion, and her sorrows the deepest sym-
pathy of mankind.
