The Little Redcaps of Kerlean I=l3 In a corner of the courtyard of the old Castle of Kerleau may be seen the crumbling stone statue of a peasant, which has stood there for many ages. In the days when good Christians reached Heaven by faith and good works, Satan was forced to exercise his wits to draw them into his snares; ho was therefore much more frequently to be .seen among men at that time than he is now, (fur in these days he has no need to come to us, as we of our own accord go to him.) But whatever of fore thought he might exercise, and whatever pains the evil spirit might take, his most carefully prepared plots would sometimes I fail, even when brought to bear upon the , simple ones. There was then at that time, in the com mune of Eleven, a poor peasant named Lau rent; he was a widower, and had no other possession in the world than a beautiful daughter, the pearl of the country, who went by the name of fair Jeanette; but though the love of money was then less prevalent than it is now, no ono envied the good man his treasure, and none of the par ish, though they were always delighted at an opportunity of dancing with Jeanette, and paid her fine compliments, ever thought of marrying her. "lb I if I had but a good form," said poor Laurent to himself, "I'd make Jean ette worth being looked after by the best lads in the commune; but with the poor wages of a day labOrer, how can I put any thing aside? If the Count of Largoet would only give Use some assistance, I would clear some of his land fur him, and we should both be gainers by the bargain." Hunger, they say, brings the wolf out of the forest, and father Laurent, having laid all the plans, paid a visit to the castle of Largoet, and proposed to the Count to take a part of hit land and get it in order, if lie would make him a good advance. "Very good," said the Count; "I will give you a hundred crowns, a good herd of cat tle, and all the tools you want, but by this time three years yots must have cleared, and planted, and hedged, all the land that is al lotted to you." 'Thoroughly delighted with his bargain, Laurent confidently set to work. He built a cottage fur himself and his daughter, and stalls fur the cattle; fur in those days, with a hundred and ten crowns, a great many stones could be put one upon another. When once they were lodged, the good man engaged laborers, who cut ditches, plowed the land, and sowed a great field, while they lived the whole year upon what was borrowed. But at the expiration of twelve months, Laurent found himself far poorer than at the beginning, for he was in debt, and ho had hardly any corn, as the harvest had been bad, and his laborers, who had been badly fed and not paid at all, had all left him. One day, when the unfortunate Laurent WAS digging a trench alone, and the sweat was running in streams from his brow, and his limbs were aching with fatigue, he la mented his hard jut, and clutching his hair cried out: "Yes, I would, I'd give myself to the devil fora mere nothing." "Here I am at your service," said Satan, who was immediately at hand. "No, no, by no mean; thank you,".taid Laurent, I prefer working alone." •'Well, but I'll work fur you, and without wages." "Oh, no! you never give anything for nothing," said the peasant. "Come," said S.ttan, "don'tgo on arguing, but let's make a bargain. I pity you, for I am a good-hearted follow, ansl I'll work for you fora year and a day fur nothing, on the condition that,you'll always supply me with work; but the very Arst limo it fails, "You'll carry me of," said the peasant. "Well, then, I decline," "By no means, you old idiot!" said Satan; "it isn't you I'd have, but your daughter." "You'd have my daughter! Go long with you!" said the exasperated Laurent. "Well, but if you always remain poor, you'll have no means of getting your daugh ter married." "Well, then, let her lie an old maid Ml her life; I don't care." "Yes, it's possible you don't care; but how about her?" Poor Laurent set himself to ,thiok.— "There's a great sight o' work to be done here, and f shall easily employ bias for a year and a. day; he'll be awfully cunning if he contrives to do all I shall give him." fl "Well," he said at length, "I—" "You refuse?" said Satan. "No, on the contrary, I accept." • I "Well, then, muter, what shall I do?" "Finish this ditch, while I go anti rest." As long as there were fields to be plowed and sown, grass to be cot, corn to be threshed, and wagons to be built, all wept on well, and they were quite at their ease; but after eight days of hard labor,,tbere was not much left to be done, and the fear of finding nothing Golds workman to dolpegan to torment the good map, who looked at his daegbter with fatritnd trembling. Day and .ight be racked his brain to find some means of occupying the activity of Satan; he lost his appetite, and he daily grew thin ner and sadder. But one morning, when he got up, he had quite lost his gloomy and morose manner, and seemed almost beside himself with joy; and when his workman came to ask for work, Laurent in a careless manner took him by the shoulder and said: "I am very well pleased with you, for you work capitally; but I don't like you to be al ways toiling so hard: so to-day I'm going to give you something to do that won't tire you. Just go; and fetch a fork out of the stable, and I'll meet you in the yard." So 'while ho was gone to the stable to fetch the fork, Laurent went up into the loft, and emptied down into the yard a great sack of wheat, and then coming to the. door when Satan returned, he said: "Just throw me up this wheat with your fork, and measure it into the sack." So the devil set to work, plunging his fork again and again into the heap of wheat, without picking up a single grain. "Confound it!" lie cried out, with an oath, "what dog's work have you given me here?" and he leaned upon his fork in despair. "Well, my fine fellow," said Laurent, "if you won't do my work, you can get some elsewhere, fur I'm not going to feed you fur nothing! Do you understand?" "Yes, yes, I understand," growler} Satan, furious at being thus outwitted. "I will leave you, but I'll have my revenge some day." And he disappeared. A short time after this a foreigner, having purchased this land which the devil had put into such good, condition/built upon it the castle of Kerleau, the ruins of which are still standing, and Laurent, now became a rich man, having no longer any difficulty in marrying his daughter Jeanette, was making preparations fur her nuptials with a rich young farmer. He was anxious to have a magnificent tedding, and determined that everything should be in the best style; so he bought the finest cloth tliat could be found, and selected the most renowned tailor in the country to make the clothes. The tailor's name was Nicholas, and he did his work in a manner that no one could under stand. He was seen to cut the cloth, but no one ever saw him sowing; however, the clothes which were intrusted to him were always well made,,were strongly vowed, and were always finished by the day on which ho had promised them. As soon ns he had taken the measure, ho cut out the cloth, put the pieces into a box, and then went out to smoke and drink at a tavern. Some said that Nicholas was a wizard, but a great many said that ho had sold himself to the devil, and they were not far from the mark; for when Satan knew that Nicholas had been sent for to Kerleau to make the wed ding clothes, he came to him and said: '1 hare got to hare my revenge upon that fellow Laurent, and I reckon upon your doing me a good turn; now you must give me his daughter or it will be the worse for you. r.L., you understand me, you tippler?" "All right," said the tailor. "Tint how and when shall I deliver Jeanette to you?" "0%, I leave you to the choice of the means; but as you are going to Kerlenu to morrow, to-morrow I must have Jeanette.— Now I warn you not to fail." S•, the next day Nicholas was at Xerleau, and began to cut the cloth early in the morning, when suddenly he said to Jeanette who was watchit.g "Good gracious: what a bother: I'm pulled up short fur want of my tools. I've left my box behind me, and I can't get on fur want of it." "Oh, never mind," said the girl, "I'll go and fetch it fur you." "You're no end of a good girl, Jeanette," said the tailor; -"here's my key; you'll find the box. on the board just beneath tl,e win dow. But mind you don't open it, or you'll meet with a misfortune." "Nu, no, easo your mind on that score." said Jeanette. ",/. won't &pen it." And she ran off. IViren she had got the box, she put it under her arm, and carried it carefully with out venturing to look at it. Presently she thought she heard something inside B— yes, there itwas again; a regular whisper ing, a tittering, and what s queer clatter— what an odd noise it is. "I wonder whether I could see through the keyhole?" su she took the key out. "Bother! I can't see anything—the box must be double. If it were to open it—only a little hit! No, that won't do. Nicholas told me that there would he some accident if I did. IL:waver. it was only to frighten me that he said no. Ile's a cunning follow, and dons not want his secret to got wind. Its all nonsense: what could happen if I did just louk into it? If there is an animal inside, it can't eat me, fur it's not as big as I am. Reasoning thus, Jeannette, who was then in the middle of a wide common, gently opened the lid of the box about an inch, but no sooner bad she dune this, than a whole host of little dwatfs—not as large as your thimble, each with a little redcap upon beryl—leaped to the ground, and dancing around her, shrieked at the top of their voices: "Some work, mistress, .some work!" Jeannette stood quite _stupefied, with her mouth open, and looking at the little men as they gamboled about her. Bat at this de mand ,for work, she thought she was lost unless she could satisfy them: so she cried 41:14: "Come, /Ado red caps, pall up an the brushwood on the common." Su they immediately bezan to pull up $1,50 PER. YEAR IN ADVANCE; $2,130 IP NOT IN ADVANCE all the tufts &broom, and in an instant the whole common was cleared. "Some work, mistress, some work!" they cried again. "Make a great pile of the tar's you hate pulled up," said Jeannette. -Ind they made hoap as high R 9 an oak. Now, my little men," said Jeannette, "climb up to the top of this pile and jump down into the boa." Whereupon they climbed up to the top and leaped lightly down. As soon as the last was in the box, Jeannette double locked it, and ran with it as hard as she could to the tailor. So Nicholas tool: all the pieces of cloth which he. had cut, and stuck needles and thread into them, end then opened his Lon to giro them to his dwarfs to sew; hut r.t the sight of the little men, who stretched cut their hands, thoroughly stained green. he cried out: "What have you been doing, Jeannette, with my little men, that they have made their hands so dirty?" "Ohl" she replied, "I am sorry to say that in running back as fast as I could, I let the box slip, and all the poor little men fell upon the grass, and when I picked them up I forgot to wash their hands." "Aid Jeannette," said the tailor, "you are very fortunate to have fared no worse." "Well, never mind," she liziwvvereJ, •'u:ri as your little men nre hard and taste our cider," _ So Nicholas drank hard all (lay to drown his vexation, and at night he could scarcely get up to his room. However, when be MIR there, he opened his box, and the dwarfs all jumped out and cried: "Some work, master; some work!" "Carry me down into the yard," said sllTicholas, "I want some fresh air, and my legs won't carry me." So they took him d iwn and placed him on the ground, saying ME "Some work, master; some work:" "Always that same accursed song!" said Nicholas. "Well, pick up all the chips that the stone masons have been making." Su the little redcaps filled every corner of the yard, and soon made a heap of all the chips; they then ran back to Nicholrs again, saying: "SOW! VrOrk, master; some work!" Bat Nicholas was snoring, and when they had half awoke him, all that he could say was: "Go to the devil." At these words the little demons carried off the unhappy tailor, placed him on the heap of grit nod chips which they had col lected, rolled him again and again in it, and rubbed it into him till it reached his very marrow, and he became stone. And then they placed him under that turret, where he stands to this day. The Widow's Ense It was in the year--but no matter, I have the most treacherous memory imaginable fur dates; when Quarz was at Berlin—you, of course, know who Quarz was—if you do not, I'll tell you. ITe was the celebrated musical composer and musician at the court of Frederick the Great, and, by the way, taught him the flute. Quarz was the pupil of the famous counterpointist, Gasp:lrani; Quarz, in short, was•the man who, as he was leaving the •orchestra one night, heard a ball schist:o in his ear, ticketed for him by !the Spanish ambassador, who was in love with a certain marchioness. I can assure you the aim was a good one, and the maestro might well bob his head and wink his eyes. At the time of which I was speaking, be fore I got into these parentheses, Quarz was forty one, tall and well-made in his person, and of a noble and characteristic counte nance, which joined to a talent whose supe- riority no one could dispute, gave him free access to all societies, and caused him to be well received everywhere. Ile was, among thero,particularly intimate with ono Schind ler, is friend of his youth, who had followed the same studies—almost with the same sue- ' cess. What a ble•sing was such a friend.

But death laid his eahl and pitiless hand on Saindler. and with his terrible seytho cut that knot which only ho could saver. No record of the time remains to tell us whether Madame Schindler "lamented him sore." There are some sorrows over which we are forced to throw a veil.
