THE WALPURGIS-NIGHT.
It. ZSCII0KKB.
THE TEMPTEH.
I found myself far from homo on
business at 1'raguo. It was In April.
Howovcr ngrceablo tlio tllvra'slon, I
could not suppress my home-sickness.
I longed for our llttlo town, where my
young wifo had been impatiently ex
pecting my return nlready for Eovon
weeks, SInco our wedding-day wolmd
never boforo been so long separated. It
is true, Fanny sent mo letters ovoiy
week; but theso lines, so full of love
and fondness and melancholy, wore on
ly oil to the ilro. I wislit-d Prague ami
St. Neponiuc Just four-and-tliirty miles
behind mo to tho north-east.
To him, who has not a lovely little
wlfo of two-and-twenty, charnilug iw
lovo, with two llttlo loves playing
around her, and who is not, after-flvo
years of married life, flvo hundred
times more in lovo than on tho day be
fore his wedding, in vain do I talk of
my home-sickness.
Enough, I thanked heaven when all
my business was finished; and taking
leave of my few acquaintances ami
friends, told my host to make out my
liill. I was to set off on tho morrow
with tho post.
In the morning tholandiord appeared
with a pretty heavy account, I had
not ready money enough to pay it and
tho expenses of tlio journey too. I
wi.-hed to elianSo u note, I felt for my
pocket-book, and sought It in all my
pockets, and iu all corners. It was gone.
I felt very uncomfortably, for there
weio more than fourteen hundred dol
lars In bills in it, and that is uo trlllo
under tlio sun.
It was In vain that I turned tho room
topsy-turvy tho pocket-book was not
forthcoming.
"I might havo known It," said I to
myself. "Lot a mim bo happy for ono
moment lu his life, tho duvil is sitting
behind tho hedgo ready to play him a
trick. Ono ought not to rejolco in any
tiling In tills world, and then should
wo havo less vexation and misery. How
often havo I found It so I"
Tlio pocket-book was either stolen or
lot. I had it iu my hands only tho
day bofore ; I wan accustomed to carry
It In tlio breast-pocket of my coat. Fan
ny's lotters weio there too. I was cer
tain that I hud felt It tlio night before
when undressing. How now were my
bank-notes to bo recovered ? Whoever
luiil got them could easily chango them
into gold aud silver.
I began to swear, which, by tlio way,
Isnot my besetting sin. Had tlio ovll
onogono about still, ns in tlio good old
times, although as a roaring lion, I
should havo struck a bargain with him
on tho spot. As my thoughts took this
turn, there suddenly occurred to mo tlio
rccollevtion of a llgure, that I had sccu
at billiards about a week before, In a
eloso red coat, and that then seemed to
mo llko a prince of darkness in human
shape. My blood actually rail cold at
tlio vemenibraneo ! and yet I was so
dcspeiute, that I thought to myself, "I
don't care, for my pad ! Y'er0 1,0 llcro
now ho would bo right welcome, If ho
would only bring mo my pocket-book.'
Just then somoono knocked nt tho
door. "Holla I" thought I : "tho temp
ter Is not goluB 1 tnko n Joko In earn

A MollE l'AUTlCL'LAlt DEfJCIlirTION.
I must relate how ami whero I had
inadothu actiuaintanco of this appari
tion, Hint tho reatler may not constiler
mo a mero victim of my Imagination.
1 luiil gono ono evening to n colleo-
houso or ca.3lno,wlicro an acquaintance
hadouco before carried mo to play bil
liards. I hoped tt find tho latest news
papers. At a small table sat two gen
tlemen, engaged at chess. Some young
men weio sitting at a window, In live
ly conveisatluu about ghosts and tho
natiiro of tho human soul. A llttlo el
derly man, In a scarlet cloak,wos walk
ing up and down tho room with his
hands behind him. I took n glass of
Dantzle cordial and tho newspaper.
No ono attracted my attention so
much its tlio gentleman in scarlet. 1
lorgot the newspaper and tlio Spanish
war. There was, in his figure, in his
movements, nml in his features, kouio
tliiiiff stiikins and repulsive which cor
responded with his evident want of
tasto in div-w. Ho w.tu something un
der the usual iiii'.e, but large-boned and
broad-shouldered, llo seemed to bo be
tween fifty and sixty years of age, and
had a stoop In his walk. His coal-black
hair hung thick about his head. His
lawny complexion and his liawk's-no.s
and high check-bones gavo him a very
repelling look. For, whilo his features
wcrocold and iron, his largo eye spark
led like the eye of a young man ; and
yet one read In it no inspiration, no
soul. There thought I is n born execu
tioner, or grand Inquisitor, or robber
captain, or glpsy-klng. For it merejest
that man could set cities on ilro or seo
children stuck upon pikes. 1 would
not llko to travel alono in a wood with
him Ho lias never smiled in all his
life.
Thero 1 was mistaken. Ho could
smile. Ho listened to tho young men
at the window, and smiled. But, God
bo with us! whatnsmilo! It chilled
me liko ice. Tho malico of tho infernal
regions seemetl to mock ono from every
feature. "If that man thero in tlio red
coat Is not S-itmi himself," thought I,
"I'o must bo Satan's brother." I looked
involuntarily at his feet for tho cloven
foot, and, sure enough, ho had ono hu
man foot liko ours, but his left was a
club foot in a laced boot: yet he did not
limp with it, but walked softly about as
if among egg-shells, which ho did not
caro to break. He ought to have let
hlm-olf bo exhibited for ready money,
to make all tho Voltaires believers.
I entirely forgot the Spanish war. 1
held tho nowspapcrbeforemo, it is true
but kept peeping over it at this remark
ablo ilgure.
As the red coat passed tho chess-table
one of tho players said to his antagonist
who seemed to bo somewhat embarras
sed, "You aro lost now, beyond salva
tion." Tho red coat stopped a moment
cast a glanco upon tho board, nnd re
marked to tho victor "You nro mista
ken. In three moves you will bo cheek
mated." Tho wiuner smiled haughti
ly; his opponent shook his head despair
ngly, and moved , at tho third movo
the supposed victor was actually check
mated.
Whilst the chess-players wero replac
ing their men, ono of tho young men
at tho window said warmly to tho red
coat "You smile, sir; our dbcusvion
appears to interest you ; but your smile
tells ine that you aro of a different opin
ion about the world and the Pie'y.
Havo you read Scliolling?"
"Oh, yes !" said tlio led coat.
"And what does your smilo mean'."'
"Your Schelllng is a sharp-minded
poet who takes tlio tricks of his imagi
nation for truth, because no one can op
pose him, except with other fancy webs
which only require still greater acuto
ness to weavo them. It is with philos
ophers now-a-days i5 over; tl.o blir.d dts
puteabout theory of colors.and thodo.if
nbout tlio laws of mu.ic. Alexander
would willingly havo been shipwreck
ed against the moon, Iu order to subdue
it; and philosophers, dissatisfied in the
sphere of reason, want to bo superation
al." So said the red coat; somo distur
bance arose. But ho waited not, but
took his hat and glided away.
I had not seen him since, hut I did
not forget tho striking tlgtiro and tlio in
fernal physiognomy, nud 1 was really
frightened at tho thought of dreaming
about them.
And now ho stood unexpectedly bo
foro mo in my room !
THE TEMPTATION.
"Pardon, sir, if I disturb you," said
ho ; "havo I the honor to address Mr.
Robert V"
"I am that person," I replied.
"How do you provo It?"
"Strango questions," thought I; "n
police spy, without doubt." A half-torn
letter lay on tho table. I showed him
my address on tho envelope.
"Very good," said he, "but tho name
is a very common ono; you may llnd
it in overy comer of Germany, Hunga
ry and Poland. You must glvo mo bet
ter vouelujro; I Iitivosonio business with
you and havo been directed hither."
"Sir," said I, "pardon mo, I cannot
now attend to business; I am just upon
tho point of leaving, and havo yet a
thousand things to sco about. You
must lio mistaken in tha person, for I
am neither politician nor merchant.
Ho stared at nie.and said "Indeed!"
He was then silent for awhile, and ap
peared about to depart; but began
again i "You have, however, been do
ing some business hero in Praguu? Is
not your brother upon tlio point of be
coming bankrupt?"
I must havo grown ilre-rcd, for, as I
believed, that was known to no soul In
tho world except my brother and my
self. Hero tho tempter gnvo ono of his
malicious smiles again.
"You aro again mistaken, sir," said
I; "I havo n brother, it Is true, and
more tlitin ono.butnoiio that fears bank
ruptcy."
"Indeed," murmured tho tempter,

ono In Prague should know of my
brother's clrcumstp.nces, and I was
afraid that tho old fox would seo Into
my play ns ho did into tho gamo of
chess nt tho cofieo-house, "you havo
certainly been directed to tho wrong
person. I must beg pardon for request
ing you to bo brief; I havo not a mo
ment to lose."
"Havo patienco only a uilntito," re
plied he; "it Is important for mo Unit
1 should speak with you. You appear
dlrqiilctcd. Has anything dlsagreeablo
happened to you ? ouaroii stranger
icro. 1 myself do not belong to
Prnguo ; mid I seo tho city now for tho
llrst tlmo for twclvo yenrs. But I have
conslderablo oxperiencc. Confide lit
me. You look llko an honest innti. Do
you need money?"
Ihen ho smiled, or rather grinned
again in if ho wanted to buy my soul.
His manner became ever moro suspic
ious. Involuntarily I east a glanco at
his club foot, ami really I began to feel
a superstitious dread. I wus resolved
in no ca-jo to commit myself with tills
siq leious gentleman, and said, "I need
no money. Since you arc so generous
in your offers, sir, may I ask your
ns 'no?"
"My name cannot hoof much conse
quence to you," replied ho; "that's
nothing to tlio mntter. I am a Mnntlo
vlllo. Does thnt nnmo give more ton
iklcnco?" "A Mtui-dcvll ." saltl I, in odd em-barra-sment,
and knew not what to say
or whether tho whole thing were in Jot
or in earnest.
Just then some ono knocked at tho
door. Tlio landlord entered, nnd lianel-
cil mo n letter which had just como by
post.
"Rend your letter first," said the red
coat, "and thon wo will talk further.
Tho letter is, without doubt, from your
lovely Fanny."
I was moro startled than over.
"Now do you know," continued tho
stranger with a grin : "do you not now
know who I am, nnd what I want with
you?"
It was upon my lips to say : "You
aro, sir, I verily believe, Satan himself
and want my poor soul for a breakfast,'
but I restrained mygclf.
3 j,"But further," added lie,"you aro go
ing toEgcr. Goodl'my way lies through
that town. I start to-morrow. Will
you take a place in my carriage ?"
I thanked 1dm, and said that I had
already ordered a post-chaise.
At this ho became disturbed, and
said, "There is no getting at you, but
your Fanny, and tho littlo Leopold and
Augustus, I must get acquainted with
in going through. Can you not guess
who I am and what I want? Tlio
Douco ! Sir, I would render you a ser
vice. Do speak."
. "Well," said I at last, "slnco you nro
a wizard, my pocket-book is missing.
Advise mo how I shall get It again."
"Boh! what6iguiflcs a pocket-book?
Is there not something elso ?"
"But In tho pocket-book wero Impor
tant papers moro thau fourteen hun
dred dollars in value. Advlsomo what
I shall do if it is lost, and what, if sto
len." "How did tho pocket-book look?"
"It had a silk cover, llgbtgreeu, with
embroidery, and my initials wrought
in flowers, a piece of my wifo's work.'
"Then tho cover is worth moro than
tho fourteen hundred dollars." Witli
this ho smiled upon me with his horri
ble familiarity, and then added, "we
must see about It. What will you glvo
me, if I supply your loss?"
At these words he looked at mo as
sharply and slningolv ui if lto expected
me to answer, I will niako you a pres
ent of my soul ; but as I remained em
barrassed and silent, ho plunged his
hand into his pocket and drew out my
pocket-book.
"Thero have you your Jewel, tho four
teen hundred dollars, and nil," said he.
I was besiilo myself. "How catno
you by it?" cried I, tearing it open,
nnd finding all safe.
"I found it yesterday afternoon,
about four o'clock, upon tho Moldau
Bridge."
Right: just about that timo I had
erossetl the bridge, had had tho pocket
book iu my hands, and had, as I tho't,
put it into my pocket.
"It probably did not go into tho pock
et," sitltl the red coat. "But I could not
tell whether it had been lost by n person
on foot or on horseback, before or bo
hlnd mo. I waited an hour upon tho
bridge, expecting to moot somo ono in
search of It. As no ono came, I went to
my hotel. I read the contents of tho
letters, to tllscovor tha loser. An ad
dress gavo mo your namo ami residence
hero. So I havo como now to you, I
was hero last evening but did not find
yon."
Good heavens ! How ono may bo do
colved by a man's physiognomy I I
was ready to throw my a'rms around
tho neck of my Mnn-dovil. I said tho
most obliging things to him. My Joy
was now as execssivo as my previous
vexation had been. But bo would lis
ten to nono of my thanks. I vowed
that as long as I lived 1 would never
again trust to physiognomical Impres
sions. "Remember mo to your beautiful Fan
ny, a pleasant Journey to you! wo shall
sco erchjother again," said ho, and do
parted. (Continued.)

Extraordinary Kxodtia or Honey
liccs.
Onk of tho moit remarkable occur
rences that has over come to our know
ledge was related to us yesterday. Mr.
Jnmes Broil, a farmer, who resides
nbout seven miles from tlio city, on tho
River road, lias forsomcllmo past, been
engaged extensively In raising honoy
bees, nnd with almost unprecedented
success. Ho has lately rejoiced In as
many ns forty-fivo hives. A fow morn
ings ago, howovcr, Mr. Broil woko up
to And his bees nonest. Thoy had "lit
out" between two days.leavingnotraco
whatovor of tho point or region of coun
try to which they liadso unceremonious
ly migrated. Tlioro was not a solitary
beo left to keep ids lonely watch over
tho foi ty-flvo hives. As might bo ex
pected, Farmer Broil was left lu con
sidernblo of a dilemma, and Immediate
ly consulted nil tho authorities nt his
command in relation to tho peculiar
habits and freaks of tho beo tribe.
After reading through many volumes,
It occurred to him that somo of ills
neighbours might boablo to explain tho
whys nnd wherefores of this "bounty
Jumping" movo on tlio p.irtof his army
of lioncy-mnkcrs. Ho accordingly made
"bee-lines" for tlio resldenco of his near
est neighbor, to consult him on tho sin
gular problem. To his utter surprise,
lie ascertained that his friend, who is
also a "beoist," had met met with tho
samo loss in thesaine sudden manner,
and was In the samo perplexity as to
tho came. They at onco resolved on
examining tho hives, and it revealed to
them tho fact that each stand contained
from sixty to scventy-flvo pounds of
nonoy. Tins development led tho two
beo-raisors to seek for further informa
tion, and in tlicir rounds, for a circuit
of twenty-flvo miles, thoy found that
every hivo had been deserted about tho
samo time, and all of them were left
full of honey. Tho farmers In that re
gion aro unablo to account for tills mys
terious dlsappeatnnco of their boes, and
many theories havo been advanced, but
up to this timo tlio problem remains
unsolved. The opinion of most of them
is that tho mildness of tho weather up
to so lato a season caused this singular
iiiigration."Xoui8fi7eZe'mocra.A'oi'.10.
Tup. Lahoest Blast on Recoud.
A short distanco below Barryville, on
the lino of tho Delaware & Hudson Ca
nal, a large mass of rock has been for
some timo regarded with anxioiu o yes
by tlio company. Fears wero enter,
taincd that it might during the season
of navigation bo precipitated into tho
canal, an event which could not cost
the corporation less than half n million
of dollars. It was finally determined
to tako timo by tho forelock, and ills
lodge tho mass in tho winter season,
nnd accordingly on Friday last, tho
thing was accomplished. Twenty-flvo
i:egs or powder having been deposited
in a fissure and well tamped with sand
tho match was applled,and nt ono blast
tho Immcnso body known ns "Hanging
Rock" was hurled from its foundation.
About half of tho mass lodged in the
bed of tho canal and tho balanco crush
ing the tow-patli liko an egg-shell, made
Its way into tho river. Tho rock was
of tho following dimensions : 97 feet
long, 81 foot high and 8 feet thick.
Containing upward of 0,000 cubic yards
its weight was over twenty thousand
tons tho largest mass, It is believed,
ever dislodged at ono blast. It is cal
culated thnt at an expenso of nbout $10,
COO tho portion lying In tho canal can bo
removed by tho middlo of March-somo
timo before tlio possiblo opening of nav
igation. Il'tfne Co., Herald.
Dead Man's Gulch. In California
a miner had died in a mountain dig
ging, nntl being much respected, his ac
quaintances resolved to give him a
"square funeral," instead of putting tlio
body in tho usual way in any roughly
made hole, aud saying by way of ser
vices for the dead. "Thero goes another
bully boy under ! They Bought tho ser
vice of a miner who bore the reputation
of having,at ono timo of his career,
been "a powerful preacher in tho
States." And then, far Western fash
Ion, nil knelt around the grave while
tho extemporized parson delivered n
prodigiously long prayer. Tho miners
tired of this unaccostomed opiate, to
while away tho tlmo, began Angering
tho earth, dljrccr fashion, about tho
grave. Gradually looks were exchang
ed; whispering increased, until it bo-
eamo loud enough to attract tho atten
tion of tlio parson. Ho opened his eyes
and stared nt tho whispering miners
"What Is it boys?" Then ns suddenly
his eyes lighted on sparkling scales of
gold, ho shouted, "Gold, byjingo! nnd
tho richest kind j'dlgglngs' tho con
gregation's dismissed 1" Instantly ev
ery man began to prospect tho now dig
glng, our eiorlcal friend not being tho
least octlvo of tho number. Tho body
hail to bo removed nnd buried else
where, but tlio memory of tho Incident
yet lives In tho nnmo of tlio locality,
for "Dead Man's Gulch" became ono of
tho richest localities In California.

Wk do not think that any boy ever
put on his first long-tailed coat without
a sonso of shame. Ho first twists Ills
back hftlfofriooklngat It in tho glar ,
and then when ho step! out f doors, it
seems ns If all creation was .n u broad
grin. Tho8Uiilauglis,lntliosUv,tho cows
stop to look at him; there mo faces at
overy window; his very shauiw mocks
htm. Tlio very boards creak with con
sciousness of tho Btr.tngo spectacle, and
thoold pair of pantaloons that stop alight
in thogarrot window nod with derision.
If ho Is obliged to pass ti group of iikh
and boys, tho trial nssunius its must
terrific stage. His logs get all mixed
up with embarrassment, and tno ilnp
oftho dangling nppendago is f 'It a0iili t
them, moved by tho wind oi his own
ngitntionj ho could not fool any weu
wero It a dish rag, to bu worn by lr a
as a badge of disgrace. It is a haj i V
tlmo for him when ho gets to' hurchur.J
sits down with his coat tail u.ider him;
but ho is still apprehensive v. Uli I'd liv
ing of tlio Sunday School, u:i-l woud rs
if any of the children will dak him to
swing his long-tailed blue.
Tlio entrance into society may bo
s.ild to tako piaeo after boyhood has
passetl away, yet n niullliudo tako
tho Inltlativo before their hearts are
presentable. It is a great trial to rt
tender or tough ago. For any oVergrown
boy to go to n door, knowing there aro
a dozen of girls within, and knock or
ring with absolute certaiiuy in two
minutes all their eyes will be upon him,
is a severe test of courage. To go be
fore these girls and mako a s itlsfactory
lour of tho room without stepping on
their toes, and then sit down and dis
pose of one's hands without putting
them in ono's pockets, is mi achieve
ment of which fow can boast. If a boy
can getso far as to measure on ten yards
of tapo with ono of tho girls, ind cut It
short at ono end, ho may stand a chanco
to spend a pleasant cvenin0 ; but let
him not flatter himself that tho trials
of tho evening aro over. There comes
at last tho break-up. Tho dear girls don
their hoods and put on their shawls aal
look so saucy, so mischievoui and un-imprei-dblo,
as if they did not with any
one to go homo witli them; Then conns
tlio pinch, and tho boy having tho inr t
pluck makes up to the prottldt girl, hu
heart in his throat, and his tongue
clinging to the roof of his mouth, and
crooking his elbow, stammers out tho
words: "Shall I seo you homo?" She
touches her fingers to his arm, and thus
they walk homo about a foot apart,
feeling as awkward as goslings. As
soon as she is safo inside her own doors,
ho starts home, and really thinks ho
has been and gone and done it.

A Desperate Encountkil Tlio
Bridgeport Standard says, The follow
ing singular occurrence is narrated by
an eye-witness ns having transpired
somo timo last summer on trj farm of
Mr. Wm. II. Bibbins in Fairfield. The
narrator was spreading liay 'a a field,
when his attention was attracted to a
clump of tall grass at some littlo dis
tance, from which a weasel was con
stantly springing into the air. Ap
proaching cautiously nearer, no discov
ered tlio cause of this singular conduct.
On a little mound of hay a largo cop
perhead snake, nt least thro, feet lung,
was colled up, anil with head erect, dnr
ttng tongue, and exposed faivs, v s
watching tlio weasel, who tins maLin;;
a series of springs at tho reptile, o t
dently with tlio intention of seiKli u
by the throat. Tho snake dodged, a 1 1
the wetsel continued Ids ra ack ti'l ,it
length by a sudden spring ho em ht
tho snake by tho throat, ind a fort uh
strugglocn-'ued. Tho won-. -I held oi,,
nnd the snake wound hiuisclt about tb
body of tho animal, nlmoit entirely
covering it, nud scorned about to cru li
it to death, when his wcast-lship let go
his hold ou tho snake's throat, ami
"popped" in true weasel stylo out nf
the embracu of bis enemy, springing at
least two feet in the air. The snako
then crawled under the mound of hay,
and in n few moments tlio weasel reap
peared and crawled after him,und from
tho tossing of the hay a desperate fight
seemed to bo going on beneath it. It
ceased In a short time, and tlio weasel
enmo out dragging tho snako after lilm
dead, with his throat bitten open. Tlio
weasel dragged tho snake into a neigh
boring fence, and there thoy both dis
appeared.
The Philadelphia Aye speaking oi
Senator Bucknlew, says:
It would bo needless for in to reiter
ate tho opinion wo havo ofte a expnrsed
of the ability and dignity with which
Jir. nuch-niow na represented I'onnsvi-
viinia in tho Senate. Tho comiilexlon
of parties does not authorize much hope
of Ids ro-olcctlon ; yet if el aracter, t..l
onts and patriotism wero tlio tests, wo
fancy few even of his political opr n
ents would glvo to any man named fur
moouico n preiereuco over us pre iint
occupant. Tho Now York Tribune has
tho courago to say this frankly in an
article from which w o make an extract:
Tho new Legislatures of Pennsylva
nia ami Indiana will assemble next
week, nnd will proceed, two weeks lat
er, to chooso each a United mates Sena
tor lor six years ensuing, lu place ot
tho Hons. Charles R. Bucknlew and
Thomas A. Hendricks respectively. A
more important tuny can nanny de
volve on either body, and wo trust it
may bo discharged with a full conscious
ness of its grave responsibility.
i no now Legislatures oi tneso stales
will, wo trust, chooso in their stead
men nt least as capable and influential
as they aro, whilo belongii: j politically
ton oe i ter scnooi, ii men suoiini bo
taken who compare unfavorably witli
them in every respect but t'uir politics,
great harm and wrong wit' havo been
dono to the Republican car. ,
The Rochester 'cVroid f tills thin
slory : "During Robert Lincoln's recent
Journey from Chicago to Boston, he got
out of tho car, and whilo walking along
tho railroad track slipped and fell be
fore nu advancing engine. A gentle
man passing nt tho tlmo saved his llfo
by dragging him from tho trnck ; on
getting up aud looking for his preserv
er, ho recognized Edwin Booth, brother
of J, Wilkes Booth. No words wero
spoken, Mr. Booth walking rapidly
away. Wo glvo tlio story as it is told
us."
