Devillier, and charms everyone at the Theatre du Paris, of which he is one of the principal artists. He is a French - naan—a native of Pas du- Calais, and a very short time ago was employed as a cooper, making herring barrels at a little place called Portelle. A lady, a friend of the Empress Eugenie, happening to hear him sing at a concer,. given at Boulogne for some charitable purpose, spoke to him and offered to give him introductions to Paris, and pecuniary facilities for cultivating his vo'ce. Here he profited so rapidly by the means at his disposal, that he soon acquired distinction, and obtained an engagement at the principal opera house, at a salary of L4O per week. This for a man who was glad to earn 4s 2d a day by his trade, was a considerable advance; but his friends say it is totally inadequate, and he has already received an offer for 1.4,000 for a tour in America, with all expenses paid To M. Eubini, ofParis.be- * of advaucingthe material interest of M. De velher, who is, I understand, as modest and sensible as he is talented.
