When the orange anil the citron groves of the Alcazar were in their ripest glory, and the gilded palace of the Moors yet wore the freshness that bad made It splendid In the days of its first masters, there lived a certam hidalgo, whose en- BLOOD trance to the Pltza de Terms was the signal fora hum and a whisper among the multitude that filled the bloody are na ; whose presence at vespers in the dusky aisles of the great'cathedra) boded ill to some ’fair worshipper within the solemn fane: a man from the touch of whose infidel fingers the priest withdrew his holy water brush as from contact with the foul fiend himself; a man behind whose steps followed ever the smothered anathema of the pious and weak. This man was Juan Tenerio, one of the twenty-four,the best hated and the most feared among the inhabitants of Seville. Handsome, proud, brave—with a desper ate, brutal courage—false, and cruel, he -for'li'W®!',A"toll lhe§B qualities had, been hereditary since the Mohemetau was driven out of Spain. Don Juan’s wealth was even greater than Ilia rank. He was master of many a square mile of vineyard between Se ville and Ca*Mz, and owuA of a delicious Oriental villa on the banks of the Gaud alquiver; built in the true Moorish style, with airy barburlc.colonades, and pierced pavements of colored marble, through which a hundred jets of limped water rose to cool the sultry southern atmos phere and a quadrangle where a fountain played all day and night amidst a wealth of exotic bl'W'ms, beneath the shade of a wide silken awning. Here, in the idle summer noontide, the noble Sevillian loved to bask, and here, beneath the ten der light of tile southern moon, was held revels of which all good citizens spoke with a shudder. Dancing girls and mat adors had told strange stories of banquets given in those marble-paved chambers, banquets at which Lucifer himself might have taken the chair; of dances perform ed in that Moorish quadrangle which mighthavedelighted tnePrince ot Dark ness and his chosen courtiers: of deeds scarcely less terrible than Ihoso by which Pedro the Cruel bad given to the Alcazar a hideous renown. Don Juan Tenono had elevated vice into a. kind of poetry; and refined .sin into science. Prom his very .boyhood his name had been a terror to husbands, father- and brothers; but of late the good people of Seville had crossed themselves as they spoke of him, as when they pronounced the name or the fiend. His latest crime had surpassed his former villianies; for on this last oc casion he had added murder to betrayal. Amongst those weak enough or bold enough to countenance this man, in spite of his villainous repute, was the Com mander Gonzalo de Ulloa, with whose young and beautiful daughter Don Juau Tenorio professed himself eager to form a matrimonial alliance. The Commander was influenced by the rank and wealth of the suitor. The terms of the contract were arranged, and the contracting par ties were allowed to meet in the most ceremonious manner on certain .rare t oo casions—the prorated .bride attended by her duenna and supported by her proud old father. , .. . Whether Juan entered upon this en gagement in good faith at first is known only to himself. Certain it is that, after a short-courtship, the idea of matrimonial bondage in the future, and the wearisome attendance of father and duenna. In the nresent, became alike obnoxious to lilw. The habit of evh-doing had grown with bin growth and strengthened with his strength. He was practiced ip the cor ruption of duennas, and versed in all de lusive arts for the conquest of a weak, inexperienced girl, andfthe end iu this case came but too soon* One morning the gossips of Seville werestartled by the tidings of Donna Octavia’s elopement with Don Juan; and before nightfall a great terror ctme upon the city with the knowledge that the Commander Don Gonzalo de UHoa had been found stabbed through tl\e heart on a lonely road twen ty mlles'from the gates. , He had dl covered his daughter's dis appearance • within-tm i.bour after the wretched girl's flight; extorted some half confession from the unwilling duen na, and bad followed the fugitives, at tended'by oi.e servant, who saw his master overtake a traveling carriage, In which were a lady and gentleman, both masked. The Commander had dragged the gentleman fr.ro the carriage, end a sharp encounter had followed on the spot, with fatal result to Don Gonzalo, the lady shrieking piteously all the while. The gentleman had not one*' removed Ills innate, and had sprung into the carnage directly after hla opponent’s fall, crying to bia postillions to drive like a thouaaud devils. , . The servant was on inexperienced rus tle. who had but a few weeks In the service of the Commander, and he was unable to identify the masked traveler. Though he bad u kind of Idea that It was no other than Don Juan Tenorio, wbo had graciously sworn at him more than once for a base-born dog, on the occasion of his visits to Don Gonzalo. ’ The Commander’s family were furious against the libertine scarcely knowing whether to hale him most as the seducer of their kinswoman or as the murderer of their kinsman. Shame was new to their house, and was so much the more biller to bear. They urged their wrongs In the ears of legal > authority, and demanded that the seducer and assassin should be BENTZ A <?0. .83 16 . 4 65 . 5 65 . 665 IWftoL * “OUTWARD HOUND.’ BY ELIZA COOK. CARLISLE, PA., TIttiBSDAY. JANUARY 20, 1870 brought before the tribunal of Justice; but as the duenna bad contrived to disap pear from Seville during the confusion that followed her emp oyer’s death, there was no evidence against Don Juan Ten orio. And besides this difficulty, there was another In the fact that Don Juan was not to be found. It was reported that he and hie frail companion hud em barked at Cadiz on a vessel bound for. tbo Eost. Don Gonzalo’s remains were brought >to Seville aud interred with much solem nity in the church of the Franciscan monnstery, where the house of Ulloa pos sessed a mortuary chapel, and of which order the only son of the late Commander was a superior; and alter affordinggossip and excitement for all Seville, the mon strous scandal gradually died away, and, if not forgotten, at least ceased to be a common subject of conversation. But ther • was one glooiny mind from which no time could efface the iniquities; there was one chief member of the holy order of St.-Francis, from whoso thoughts the fatal image of the murderer and se ducer was only banished during the an- Brome service of the altar, and scarcely unisnea men. . J Father Onofrlo of th* fTnijr sepulchre, whose name in kheworld hud been Paez de Ulloa, cherished the memory of his father’* murder and his sister’s disgrace as other men cherish the image of I> st love, or wasted wealth, or long departed happiness. By day and.night bis prayer arose to Heaven, imploring justice from Him who claims the divine right to avenge ail earthly wrongs. ‘Ttdu hast said, Vengeance la mine/ f cried.the monk.. ‘Surely Thou ,wilt not suffer tbta "libertine to go .unpunished’ And if Thou needelb an earthly instru ment, behold Thy servant la ready.* Months grew into years, and it seemed ns If the brother's pleadings were unbeard by the supreme tribunal. A marble ef figy of the murdered commander was executed lor the mortuary chapel In.the church of the Franciscans, a noble image of. the dead, * in bis habit as be lived/ erect, and sword in hand, as If standing guardian, over the vault below, awfully life like in the obscurity of that solemn shrine. Three years bad passed since Donna Octavia’s flight, and iu all that time this Moorish.villa,on the Gaudalquiver hud been deserted by lis master. Suddenly hs he had disappeared, Don Juan Tenorio came back to his native city, and again tils numo won a terror In all vlrtuouo households/ . He reappeared with a bold and daunt less front, expressed himself profoundly grieved to bear of Don Goi zulo’s death and bis daughter’s elopement,, declared that he bad quarreled with and parted, from the damsel on the very day before h*r flight, having reason to suspect her of a low intrigue with one of the mata dors of the circus, and had left Seville quietly, alone, immediately after the quarrel, and since which departure he had been travelling iu the Holy Land. The story was rendered somewhat plausible by the fact that a celebrated matador had. disappeared from Seville about the time of Donna potavlu’s flight; but the Sevillians were not the less con vinced of Juan Tenorio’s guilt, and re garded him with a gloomy interest as he stalked among them at bull-fight or fes tival, shunned, yet admired, splendid and lonely* Unhappily the very fuctof hlsevil repu tation hud rendered him an object of. in terest In the eyes of f< dish women ; and from the hour of his return he grew bolder and more successful In crime— The rumor of bis return and his new iu sombre retreat Onofrio declared that the hour had come in which the mojeaiy of Heaven must be vindicated by an earthly champion. This blasphemous libertine, whose career was devastating as the progress of some drag on of lahulous story—this hardened sin ner, whose rank enabled him to defy the Jaw, and whose infidelity marked the dangers of divine wrath —had come back to the scene of bis guilty deeds, and had come to « xpiate them. . •The hour lias arrived,’ said the supe rior In solemn conference with the-holy brotherhood, ‘wkeu the. cowardice of venal man shrinks fiom the duiyof chas tising the high born sinner when the outraged'law is powerless, it is time that the church should assert its authority. This man is an incarnate vice, and it is the office of the church to vanquish sin. Juan Tenorlo must die.’ The superior spdke with a tone of con viction that seemed inspiration. His pale, care-worn fece brightened with an awful radiance; as mU'ht look the averag ing angel as he proclaims the doom of a sinner. , . . • , ‘There should be no scandal,’ faltered* one of the brotherhood, ‘The—deed — must be done secretly * ‘The. church can keep Sts secrete, and can answer for her acts to God,’ replied Father Onofrlo, calmly. ‘For the safety of Seville, for the glory of Heaven, it is expedient that man should perish U ‘And the means by which be shall die?’ nervously interrogated the Brother Idle- Ibnzo. v ■ ■ • , ‘Heave the means to Heaven —and to me,' replied the superior. ‘I want to put the question of the righteousness of this de»d l# vote. Let those of the brother hood who are opposed to this act of jus tice hold up their bauds.’ There, was a solemn silence of some minutes, during which Father Onofrlo waited with a calm. Inflexible counte nance* No hand was uplifted, no voice pleaded for the abandoned libertine, Juan Tenorlo. ’ . ■ . , ‘Enough 1’ said the superior, ‘it is de cided, IHximus I’ m ~ # , The suppers and dances at the Moorish villa had been gayer than ever since Don Juan’s return from his wahderlngs—un holy festivals, to which men and women stole between, dusk' and midnight, in.a stealthy, secret manner. But to have partaken of on© of these banquets was to be a lost cieuture in the eyes of all good men and women, and over the gates ot that barbaric paradise might have been writien, ‘ tVho enters here leaves honor mid good name behind I’ ’The distant flash of many Jumps, the fitful sound of gay dance music, or snatches-of song floating Beviile-ward on the still night air, were all that respectable people knew or sought to know of the festivities oi Don Juan Tenorlo. But ’twas said that morning sun beheld the cl»*se.of revels more disuracelul than that fair orb bad shone upon since (Jommodus and his venal favorites greeted the god of day with their drunken chorus of jubilee* It was at the end of one of .these In famous orgies, that Juan Tenorlo strolled alone on the broad terrace-walk, from which he looked across groves of orange and oypre-s, myrtle and urbUtus, to the fair winding river glorified In the morn ing sun. The festival just ended had wearied and disappointed the giver of the feast. The dread hourbadcome in which the cup of pleasure begins to pall upon the Ups of the libertine, and in which for the first time he asks, himself the fatal question, ’And Is this happiness? Ts this all? Is it to be always the same? Lovely eyes, with the same fond, flattering looks; soft round qrms, wreuifieq fn the same caresses;, music and songs.as old.asllte Itself; wines that hove lost the power to warm tb© blood; dances whose voluptu ous enchantments have ceased 'to en chant; the mere dull mechanism of prof ligacy, the dreamy coulisse of vice. ‘ls this all that life has leit for mev’ cries the libertine, drearily. *Ob, for some intrigue that shall thrill every sense with the old Are—something mysterious, aw ful, terrible; something that shall out step the limits of earthly bliss; andcarry my jaded soul Into the domain of the supernatural!. I am weary of women. Is-there no fair fallen angel among the ranks of tb« damned who will take pity upon a boul us lost as her own ?' 4 A package for bis highness, Don Juan Tenorio.’ Tim address was so sudden os to seem like an bubw. r to that bla phemoua In vocation. But It tamd only from a mes senger who had appidaohed~the musing hida’go with a stealthy foot. He hand ed Don Juan a small packet, carefully sealed with a black seal, bowed, an,d dis appeared before there was time to Interro gate him. The packet contained a letter and a minature. Don Juan first examined the miniature. Ii was exquisitely painted, and it represented a lovelier face than Don Juan had ever seen out of his dreams.. Dark eyes of marvelous bewil derment, parted lips of richest crimson, and a smile that was almost of diobollcal beauty. * ’ The letter was brief. iOne who had long cherished your image, and watched your career would fain see you alone. If you are bold enough to venture a* meeting with a stranger, and in place not often devoted to such meetings as you attend, come, two hours after midnight, to the Francis can church, where you will be waited for iu the chapel at the left of the high altar.’ This was all. The writer made no al lusion to the portrait, but could Don Juan doubt that those plicate feminine char acters were hers, upon whose .Image he gfeseod wiil) new Hope ana passion. *A,. rendezvous two hours afier mid -1 night in a church I’ exclaimed the hidal go. ..-‘Yes fair lalien angel, I will come, (hough the foul fiend himself should make a third at our meeting.. The church of the Franciscan monastery. It is surely there that Don Gonzalo was’ buried ; yes, I remember.’ This association was scarcely an agreea ble one to even Don Juan, who held all things lighter than his own pleasure; but it nowise deterred him ri;om attend ing the rendezvous: Ho.looked at'tfre' miniature twenty times during the day, wondering how it was he.had never be held the lovely original. There were no revel* that night at the villa,, and at one o’clock Don Juan left bis house, alone, and on foot. It was a some what memorable departure, for he was destined never again’to cross that familiar threshold. The monastery of the Franciscans w r as situated in a dreary spot in thejo.utskirta of the city. Beyond lay the open coun try, wild and solitary. All was dark and silenteven iu Uiecity, But beyond those deserted streets and squares reigned an unspeakable gloom.' . Intrigues afiect darkness, and the unknown senorita had chosen a moonless night for her assignu lion ah me lJUJuico approached the loity walls of the monastery, he began 10 won der bow he should gain admittance to the church at this dead hour o( night Did the pious Franciscans leave their gates open for the faithful and patient all night long ? The customs of the pi ous were not familiar to Don Juan Teuo rio, and he could not answer the ques tion. . ’ 4 My fallen angel has made all things spiooth for me, no doubt,’ ho reflected, with an insolent smile, 4 but a church is a strange place for a past midnight rendez-. voua; and if nothing but a church will suit my unknown mistress, I should have bten better pleased had she chosen any other lane than that which hallows the ashes of the Commander.’ He was close under the walls by this limp. The western door of the church stood belore him. It was ajar, aud ho saw a taint light burning within. He pushed the door open gently, aud enter ed the sacred building with stealthy stops. There was no such feeling asJear wi'hln his mind. He was hoi even awe stricken by the solemn, time-honored solitude. He felt only a chill, unpleas uut.sense of repugnance 10 the place and fumUmfiWt e ) such a spot aud such an hour. •She must he of rank to render extreme caution necessary,’ he thought, ‘Ol she would scarcely, bring me to such a place.’ He walked slowly along the southern aisle, looking to the right ami left. Soli tary tapers burned dtmly before images of the Virgin and saints. IS’o liv.ng creature was to be seen within tin lim its oi the solemn predicts. The c.iuti >us footsteps ol Don Juan Teimrio sounded loud upon the broudstr ne flags, beneath which reposed the ashes of many patient brothers whose feet bad paced them liv ing. * The chapel to the left of the high aliar was draped in the deepest shadow. Don Juan’s footsteps. quicKened as he drew near that appointed spot. His heart beat loud and fast with the old eagerness lor triumph, aud conquest: He entered the chapel aud stood face to face with— Don tlonzalo de Ulloa. .It was only the Commander’s statue, the hobre marble efSgy of the.murdered gentleman, that confronted Don Juan, sword In hand, with—but that was a trick of ligi-t nd vengeful frown upon its lifeless brow. 4 Bt. Jugol If this should be meant for a jest the senorita shall pay dearly for it,’ muttered Don Juan, as soon As be bad recovered his br ath. He turned his buck on the statue and the mortuary chapel, and looked along the shadowy aisles in search of the per son who had summoned him. At an insignificant door in the oppo site aislo be saw a slight, black rqbeu figure, beckoning to him with uplifted hand. He crossed the church and fol lowed the figure through the open door into the grounds of the monastery.— Here he would' fain have arrested the course of the black-robed stranger.

Tlie ' scene was illuminated by torches stuck in the newlydug earth, that make a bank upon one side of the grave, and the pic ture had something of the diabolic in the - fitful glare of the torchlight. *lf tills be jest,’ cried Don Juan, ‘lt Is a sorry one, and the Franciscans shall answer to the king for such an insult td the noblest among his servants. He grasped the loose garment of bis unknown guide, who turned towards him with uplifted hood, and showed him the boyish countenance of a young no -4lb is no jest,’ said one of the hooded monks in a voice that was strangely familiar to the libertine. ‘You have been summoned hither, Don Juan Tenorio. to expiate your many crimes.’ ‘Before what tribunal ?' •The tribunal of the Church. When a sinner of your rank outrages Heaven aud man, and defies the law of his country, it is time that a superior power should take upon itself the punishment of bis iniquities. It is better that one man should perish than that the souls of many should he destroyed. You have been the incarnate scourage of your native city; you with an impunity that'lso. lasting wiiness avaicst the cow ardice of your fellow-citizens—but you shall do evil no more. Prepare yourself lor death, guilty brother; your grave is ready.’ Don Juan drew his sword, but a strong hand snatched the weapon from hi grasp, aud flung it to the bottom of that dismal, yawning grave. Other hands seized him at the same instant, and hound his arms to his sides with a rope. Bound thus, in the midst of that circle of solemn, black-robed figures, the siu- | ner knew that be was doomed. •You are allowed half an hour to pre- < pare for death,’ said the calm voice of the i superior. ‘Kneel, brother, and pray that < your guilty soul may be finally purified i la the flames of purgatory.’ « ‘I believe as much In purgatdry as I i believe in heaven or hell,’ said Don Juan, i •ami I have no breath to waste In pray- i er I conclude this performance Is some « priestly practical joke, or a strutegem tor i [ho extortion for money.

Juan Tenorio stood by, motionless as the stat ue of tlie Commander in the mortuary chapel. White as that marble effigy was hVufy 6 A&rtyS 1C In scorn of death itself. The coffin was brought forward to the i brink of tho grave, and the victim was I lilted ln“ the arms of four stalwart monks, and laid living in that last habl tation of mortality. ‘We would not indict unnecessary tor ture even on such a criminal,* said Father Ouofrlo. ‘A draught* has been prepared which will shorten the pains of death, brother Ignatius,' let the cup be Presented to the lips ofthe condemned.* ”"A monk-advanced with a metal goblet In his hand, knelt by the side of the cof fln.and offered the vessel to the lips of Don Juan.

It seemed that Boh Juan had gone at midnight to the church of the Francis cans, and had there insulted the statue of the commander, Don Gonzalo. And 10, horror of horrors! the statue had been endowed with life and motion, and had invited the insulter to mortal <combat, which ghastly challenge being accepted, the effigy bad Jed the way to a waste place behind the convent garden, arid suddenly a great ebasm In the earth was opened, and Don Juan Tenorio was de vonrednlltfe. This story was vouched fer by the monks of the Franciscan monastery, cer tain members of that holy brotherhood having witnessed the awful doom of the profligate. And on such' indisputable evidence the story of Don Juau passed into the records of Seville, a never to-be forgotten legend of human guilt and su pernatural retribution. \ II KUO IN THE HOUR OF TROVBI.E, At about nine o’clock on Saturday about fifty miles from Bt.

It was speedily lowered, and into it escaped the United States Consul of this port, Mr* Aaron Gregg, and several others. But the lowering of this boat was so badly managed, in the effort of every one to save himself, that the bow of the boat was elevated out of the water, while the stern was submerged in the foam which left the paddle-wheeils; but they manag ed at last to cut Ihe rone, and so dis-en-. tangled themselves frour the steamer. No sooner had this life-boat -parted from the ship than a panic overtook the firemen and other,? who were left on board and the when the firemen forsook the furnace-, the oilmen, the engineers, the stewards, the kitchen, and the captain took leave of hi«» senses, was perfectly hellish. The panic-stricken crew, seeing that the life-boat had left them, believed that the ship was ready to part and ready to founder, and just at this critical moment I Mr Thomas Lewis, the second engineer, and the only American citizen on board, seeing evety post deserted and all hands flying in the jaws of death, rushed upon tlie deck, and with a voice of thu» der and thrilling earnestness, addressed him self to them: ‘Halloo there! where are you, who ftdl yourselves Englishmen ! who fly from your stations when there is a little bitof danger, and call yourselves men, and Englishmen? Come back here to your places—l am ‘ not afraid ! I’ll stake my Ilfe,*and back all I have, that I will take this vessel into port with perfect safety—Uyoubutdo your duty’ Then turning to the captain, he said; ‘You captain, you’ve lost your head and allow these cowardly fellows—these lazy land-lubbers,' who call themselves English, to take your senses from you.
