While receatly psesiog, says a writer Ilamrhoid Word*, from Kxeler to Fond, on the Great Western Hallway, f found the carriage I bad selected for the trip occupied by a tery interesting young lad and two rather talkative gentlemen. Of course, we became rapidly sociable. From generalities w# gradually came dowa to penowalitiet and amnaed each other with a variety of incident* connected with oar experience* ie railway traveling, mnny af which, *» you may readily imagine, waa lingular enoogh. None, however, were more so than the following, naively told by the young lady : Although I am odea compelled to traval withoat a companion, yet I '.tare inch a dielike to company of babien end lick-flika, that I never make a Journey in the ladies' carriage. Only once, however, have I suffered any laeoarenl«nce through ray unprotected condition, nod that exception occurred very ittely and upon this very lino. After I had | taken my seat one morning at f addington, in aa empty carriage, I waa joined, | jaat as the train waa moving off, by a j strange-looking young man, with remarkably long, flowing hair. Ha waa of couraa, a little flurried, but he Mtmed, besides, so disturbed and wild, that was qaito alarmed for fear of hie aot being ta bis right mind ; nor did his subsequent conduct r»asiarc me. Our waa as express, and be inquired sajgerly, at oace. which waa tba ftrat station whereat we were adveitited to atop. 1 consulted my "Bradihaw." and faraUh•d him the required information. It was Reading. The young maa looked at hia watch. "Mad dm," said be, "I have bat half aa boar between me aod, it may be, rata. Excuse my abraptoeaa. You |M|« uc*H mj lurapuma. « in

have, I perceive, a pair of aeiawra la ! your work-bag. Oblige me, if yoa please; by eatticg off ail of my hair." "Impossible," said I ; "h ie impoasl"Mhriam," he urged and a look of sever# determination trpmed his features —"I am a desperate mao. Beware how you refuse what I ask. Cat my hair bff ebert— close to the root*— iwmediaUly ; and here it a newspaper to hold tba ambnrial tart*." "I thought he waa mad, ef eo«r*t, nod. believing it wosU be daagwoaa to thwart him, I cut off ail of his hair, to the lam lock." "Mow, madam," said he, auloeking a small portmanteau, "ybn Will further oblige me by leoklag oat of the window, ae' I am abost to cbaagS my r "Of couraa I looked oat of the win- * dowfer a tcry'coasiderabie time; and wheg he observed, 'madam, I aqrd uo ' longer -pot vow tc aw* invonvenieaee,' I

j did aot recognize the youog man in the j 'east n "Instead of tba former rather gay c Qp (tome, he waa attired in black, and worn a gray wig aod silver spectacles ; he looked like a respectable divine of the Church of England, of about sixtyfoer yean of age. To complete that character, be held e volume of sermon* in hie hand, which they appeared so to slnorb him) might have been his own." "I do eot wish lo thresteo you young lady," be resumed, "and I think, besides, that I can trust your kind face.' j Will you promise me not to reveal this metamorphosis until your journey's end ?" ( "I will," said I, "certainly ." j "At Reading the guard and a person j in plsin clothes looked into the carriage."

1 "Yon hare the ticket, my lore ?" said j ; the young man, blandly, a=d looking aa j ^ though be were my father. "Never 'isfud, sir we don't want that," j j said the official, et he withdrew with bis ' j companion. I . i "I shall now leave you, madam," obI served by fellow traveler, as booh as the ' 1 1 coast was clear f "by your very kiid aod J courageous conduct you havwsaved my ' | iUe, end, perhaps even your own.'' ^ "Id another minute be was gone, and { the train waa iu motion. Not till the , next moraiug did I learn from the TYmc* newspaper that the gentleman on , whom i had operated aa hair-cutter bad j ( committed a forgery to en eoormooi ' amount in London a few. hours before I \ met him, and that be had been tracked , into the express train at Feddiogtoo ; | | but that — although the telegraph had , been put In motion, Md described him accurately at Resdiag, where the car in I which be was, was searched, he was . nowhere to be found." I TBIUflT MWMffatK. ' A French journal gives the following particular* respecting the origin -of the fortune of M. Brevay, the deputy whose ' return in the department of the Gard, ( (France,) baa just been annulled : — M. Braxay waa bora it But-Efprit, in t>f j Gard, where hi* father wars tradesmen in narrow circuro*tao_ts- Afterserviog his appreaticaship to « -hoe maker, the ' aoa went abroad, aed returned last year with a fortune, which the least cxagger- ' ated reports estimate at 16,800, OOOf. j | (£600,000 ) It appears that oa leaving ! _ i France ha went to Egypt, and obtained ■ occupation' in a aboesbop at Cairo. One j I I day, a stranger, evidently a person 6f , renk, who had tors bis embroidered dip- j j per while walking, entered the shop and , wished to ha*o it repaired while be x waited. The master of the establish - t mept called Bravay, who repaired the 4 slipper very neatly, to the great aatitfecUna of Ha owner. Oa goiog away, the' stranger told Bravay that he would send ' for him next day about mum repairs | which he wished to have executed. A messenger accordingly came sad con"t dnele-i Bravay ta the palace, where he , waa ushered into the presence af the Viceroy, iu whom he teCOguixed the stranger of the previous day. Tba Yleeroy showed him the siippera whirl) '* ha wished to have repaired, entered into

conversation about hU-buxluom, and at laat proposed that Bravay ahwdd supply aboea for * part -of >ho amy. From that time M.
