A TALE OF BRITTANY. — The oomantry through which we passed reon ae mirmoed the appearance of parched sand: but there rosa, here and there, from out of the bleak desert plain, little hillecks cloahed with the richeat ver- dure, that looked like baskets of flowers, or like emerald tales, though without the surrounding water, They were for the moat part connected with each other by an irregular natural causeway, Shaded by lofty clm-wees, and partiy hidden by shrubs and weeds, peeped ont Nettle cottages, their roofs so covered with mows and grass, bousedeek, aod other berbs, both variegated and of a brilliant green, that one could seacely comeave them to te the workmanship and the dwelling of man. Flocke of sheep, with long pnrplisi: wool, pastured on the border of these ossea; sod our approach stertiod » namber of plovers or lapwings which flew rapiily round their island, ntering a etrange wiki ery, ae though sounding an alarm to the invabttania, The path led ua along the verge of the largeat of these onses..searce)y hal we passed it, when the great moor, properly socale|, spread ons before our view. There it lay, s rast undulating plain, eom- pletely bare, its red soil interspersed here and uhere with tufs of sickly stunte! reeds, antl emitting an offensive exhalation, which rewed midwarin the air, Ike red waves winch had boon expelled from the bosom of earth to add to the mniform colont of the srene above; nota hooath of ater was to be telt ay (he heights, nor a sha low to be wen in the val- legs. The yround, which waelike red ashes, admit ted of no firm footing; and oceasionally « pond of dark stagnant water was to be neen, without evens biacte of grass upon ite margin. From time to time, we passe! people cutting turf the'r long bar falling over their shoulders, and their forms smeared and darkened with the dull red dust and smoke, proclaimed them to be the true natives of thie dismal country. Our perty afforded & lively contrast to the scene around; the heads of the mules being decked with various eclour, and armed with greeu bowrhs to protect them from fies: on the finest of these animals wae sented the lovely Jeanne; while walking and whistling vigorously behind her was to be een the bandsome form of “the grena lier,’ having an accompantment to his music inthe merry tinkling ofthe muile-bells, I drew Jeanne'’s stiontion to what had etruck me so formbly, asking if our Little cavalcade dil not re- semble a bright glaidening #unbearo on a gloomy day. Bhe looked at nethoughtfn ly, almost dream. ily, for a morecnt, and shook her beautiful bead, Presently ashe repliod — “To eannot have the ebarins for you that it bee for those whe once lived happily in it, But there ere many women who postess true worth and excellence, though quite de void of beauty , and this bleak moor maintains eight Christian congregations,"* I inquired bow long she had Iivet heer, * Fourteen years,"' sho replied ; “and I may tru ly say that they were none of the saddest years of lite, My lithe hood and red serge frock cover- ed a form untouched by the fluger of sorrow. Ab, yea! people may sey as they like, but youth is enre. ly the fairent of all Govl's gifts!’ The ook and tone which accompanied! these words induced me to mauire if she would tain recal) her former condition of life “*T would real! nothing, sir: but narer can I for- get the past,” abe replied, ip an agitated voice, at the same time giving nas speaking, hemy look Then she added, in her umial blithe tone “Uf ron could but know how happy I nsed to be when driving throngh the moor with poor Grenen, the fires cut of turf." * Gramen wae your guardian's son, T anppose?’ “ He was s poor deserted child, whom my guar a or rather bi ter, had, in compassion, res cnet from the hospital in Savenai. We grew up toge- thor like brother and sister, Though ae ugly a boy ae conid well be found, yet more amiable cind-heart- @1 creature never lived mpon the earth. Alas! bie mond bas of late become deranged, and he remains from home for weeks nt a time, wandering about noone knows where. Many people think enough, 1 have not seen bim since my marriage Bhe remained milent and thougntful fora mo- meut, then wevt on, in her simple, intelligent manner, to draw a! vely picture of her former Ine and occupations; at the same time, though quite unconsctonely, allowing me to have nglimpay mto the state of her feelings at that period. Her guar. dian, ahe told me, wasin the babit of cutting « very large quantity of turf annually, and convey- {ng it in his own beat across the canal of Means to the Loire Along farewell was bid to home, as freighted with ber dusky cargo, the heavy-laden boat, with her single sail boisted, pushed of from the shore, to which she waa not to return for sever- al montbe Michael the cuariian, Joanne, and Gratien, compoeed the entire crew; end aa this be gure, the vast moor my aquatic turf-stack struggled against the current of the Loire, the ¥ yaye wae siways fraught with boil, ofttiines with danger, The turf was sold, as they glided on, where ever purchasers ‘were to befound, or else bartered for other goode and necessary provisions, At night the boat was apcbored near the shore; but the om abin in the stern or the deck when weather, permitted, was Jeanne’ s horne during the entire voy- age. Bhe the boat only when the press of work required her att-ndance in some of the larger towns, During the depth of winter, they were sometimes ice-bound for several weeks together: after which, when the melted ice rendered the inundations eo gross as to prevent their discerning where the navi- dreary time, and many momente of sclomn thought. Tut when the bright smile of spring once more giad- dened the earth, when the Leams of sun grew daily warmer and more invigorating, and soft silvery clouds passed gently over the blue sky ; when the warbling of birds could be heard distinctly from amidst the shrubs on shore, and the spring flowers said, determined to marry one beyond the circte ff hie own community. Jeanne langhed and sighed alernataly as she brought her lise history te « coucingion. This excitement of manner might, bewever, betoken nothing more than I coukt pre- vionaly bave guessed, and now inferred, from « fingle expression which esesped her lips, that bie widdy, houghsless, and rather proud nature ofew consed bers pang of sorrow, enpecially as be bad sleraiy run through the greatest part of bis own fortune and of her dowry. Cnr conversation was snddenly cut short by the appearing of Miebae! Maron hrmsel’, Jeanne spied him at a reat distance. as he waa basally engaged, with his sister, in cutting turf; and, shouting wien joy. abe urged ber mule towards them ate qoict trot. The entire cavalcade followed; and Pierre Lows and I, who were on foot bad to mead our peace considerably, that we might arrive in time \¢ ere the welcome, The meeting on Jeanme's part ex- hibited wn almost impetuous though pathetic ten- dernesa, while the manner of the oh! moor-peasans and bis slater —or Rruyes as the people term them- selvee—was marked hy the most frigid calmness, eneb ae was iy fortoer agen nasmral to the nativns of the'r onyinal mothercountry, and eepecialhy emonest thearmtercrace. This manner ares part- ty from a sort of charecteriatic culness, and part y from as certain refinement of feeling, and of @e- nity, which shrank from allowing thelr deeper end more tender emotions to be externally manieaed.
