“ I tell you, wife, I have got the plan all in my head “ Ah, then it’s all in a nutshell !” Father Hyacinthe.—A Parisian journalist of the name of Barhey d’Aurevilly is said to have recently sent to Father Hyacinthe a copy of one of his best works, “LePretre mariA ” In this book a child, the fruit of the priest’s marriage, has a blood stain on his forehead which takes the form of a cross, gradually increases, and which nothing can efface. Father Hyacinthe intends to publish the strange fact of the son of a French journalist being born with a small bird on bis forehead, which afterwards assumed the shape of a canard, and finally the dimensions of that bird from which M. Barhey d’Aurevilly derives his means of existence (goosecjuill).
