THE ENGLISH MAIDEN AND THE INDIAN BRAVE.

Till! talk of Paris just now is a romance in real life, of which tho heroine is a yfflung Englishwoman, and the hero no less a person than " Eagln-eye," one of tha " braves "of Mexican Joe. Jocund his redskins, have co:i.e over to the big Annual Fair at Ncuilly, outside Paris, where they daily and nightly amaze and amii'G Parisians by their diabolical yells, their horsemanship, and their prairie pranks generally. It appears that during one of tho representations given by tho troupe in England, a young lady who was present became enamoured of "EagleEye." She shortly afterwards disappeared from her home, aud her parents learned on inquiry that she had gone away to France with tho Indian troupe. A detective was sent to pans, and be, accompanied by the Commissary of Police of the Neuilly District, went to tho camp of the redskins at the Porte-Maillot, where the young lady was discovered in the tent of " Eagle-Eye." M. Martin, the Commissary, and the English detective had much trouble with the savaire, who assumed a threatening aspect, and would have shown fight but for tho intervention of Mexican Joe himself. " EagleEye" was almost foaming at tho mouth, and threatened to kill the Commissary if ho led the young lady away. The detective, however, taking advantage of the general confusion, quickly seized the girl in his arms, ran with her to a vehicle, and wan speedily driven off, leaving M. Martin to deal with the redskins as best he could.
