He was as much out of place as an old sword -- now rusty, but which had flashed once in the battle's front, and showed still a bright gleam along its blade -- would have been among the inkstands, paper-folders, and mahogany rulers on the Deputy Collector's desk. It had started its first newspaper in Japan, and elected its first deputy in A in France it named members of cabinets, and in Italy and Australia it held the balance of power and turned out ministries.

Those persons who may still remember the summer of 1819 can imagine the woes of the poor deputy, who was struggling along, drenched in sweat, to regain his mocking friend. He had long determined to marry Mademoiselle C for the Charter, on which he had just been ruminating, offered to his ambition, through the half of her property, the political career of a deputy. The queen, who was scarcely less afraid of Monsieur de Beaufort than the cardinal himself, and who was almost as superstitious as he was, made him repeat word for word all La Ramee's praises of his deputy.
