The time at which we open our story is mid winter, and towards the close of the teventeentb century. Russia is the scene. Iu the suburbs of MOSCOW, and very near the river Muskwit, stood an humble cot, which be trnycd a neatness of arrangement and show of taste that more time made up for its smallness of size. Back of the cot was an artisan's shop, and other out-buildings. This shop was devoted to the manufacture of fro-arms, mostly. Some swords, and other edged weapons, were made here upon special application. • The toaster of this tenement wkthe hereof our tale, Iturle Novel. We and is itOstanding by his (urge, watching the white smoky as it curled up towards the throat of the chimney. fie was a young man, nut over three-and- Mellty, and pos sessed a frame of more than ordinary _symmetry and muscular development. le was not large— not above n medium size—but a eingle glance at the swelling chest, the broad shoulderS, and the sinewy ridges of the bare arms, told at once that he was master of great physical power. Ills fath er had been killed in the then late war with the Turks, and the son, leaving his mother with a -sufficiency of sustenance, wont, to Spain soon al"- fatiut6rotisiernen 6.1 f 1 1`beroliefciii,gpiiiirlpiii4tia most.puted armories; and, now well reriedin We . trade, fie had returned to his native city to follow his 'ealling.pand support his mother. Near by stead a boy—Paul Peepoti—a bright, intelligent lad, some fifteen years °rage, who had bound himself to the guntrtuker for the purpose of learning the art. Claudia Nevel, Buries - mother; was enoble look iog woman, and the light ofeher still handsome countenance was never brighterlhan when gazing upon her boy. She bad a thankful; loving heart, and a prayerful, hopeful soul. "It is snowing again, faster than eves;-'.' re marked Paul, as ho took his seat at the suppyr• . table, in company with the others. "Alt," returned Rurie, resting his knife a few moments while he bent his ear to listen to the voice of the storm. "I had hoped 'tweuld snow no inure IV; the present. The snow is deep enough now. And how it bialys!" "Never mind," spoke the dame, inn trustful, easy tone, "it must storm when it listeth, and we eau only thank God that we have shelter, and pray for those who have none." "Amen]" responded Rorie, fervently. The meal was at length eaten, and the table set back, and shortly afterwards Paul retired to his bed. nitric drew his chair close up to the fire-place, and leaning against the jam he bowed his bead inmbsorbing thought. This had become a habit with him of late. Ills mother having observed these fits of abstraction, became unemmy and press ed Runic to tell her what it was over which he was SO constantly and so moodily brooding. Being thus urged, Runic confessed that it was of Rosa lind Valdai (the orphan daughter of a nobleman, and now the ward of Olga, the powerful. and haughty Duke of Tula) he was thinking. Ruric's father, and the father of Rosalind, had been com rades in arms in their youth, and their uhildren had been playmates. But when the elder Neve! was slain in battle, Runic was yet tt, boy, and the widow and her non remained poor and obscure; while 'fluidal, more fortunate, had risen to it high rank, and dying, left Rosalind a title and a for tune, The young people, however, had not forgotten each other. Ruric loved Rosalind with elf the fervor of his being, and be felt assured that Rosa lind returned his lose. As he and his mother sat debating the matter on that stormy oig!it, a NO knock upon the outer floor startled them. "Is there any one here?" the gumnakermsked, as be opened the door, bowinghis head nod shield ing his eyes from the driving snow with one band. "Yes," returned a voice from the Stygien dark ness. "In God's name let me in, or I shall per ish." ."Then follew quickly," said Runic giee teener hund.—There,-now eoree._ _ . The youth found the thickly•glored hand— gloved with the etiftest fur—end haring led the invisible .appliennt into the hall he closed the door, nail. then led the way to the kitchen. Without,spesking, Iturie turned and gazed upon the new-.comer. The stranger, who taus equally desirous ufasuertoining whot manuer.of wan Bo ric ions, was a monk—and hainted someth in°. like one of the Black monks of-St. Michael: He was oftnediu in bight, and possessed a rotundity of per son which was molted to behold. At length, after warming„hiMself by the fine, the guest asked if he.could hc accommodated with seine sleeping.-place, and being ani3wered in the , affirmative, Retie showed him to a chamber cad then retiredkireeelf.. . The nextmornimr, after breakfast. the Amtk went With Rurie to his shop, and examined with much interest the Various wearons therein. Ru rie rpiestintieciXim closely es to whether he ,had ever met him befork but Wel:Welt repliedi'eva. sively, end after saying that in case the gunma. ker should ever, in any great emergency, need, a friend, that be might apply to him, he took his leave. . - Towards the middle of the afternoon, just as Berle had finished tempering some parts of a gun lock, the back door - of the shop was opened, and two Caen entered. They wore young men, dress ed in costly furs, and both of them stout and good looking. The guninaker recognized them as' the Count Conrad Damonoff and his - friend Stephen Urzen. "I think I speak with Rurie Novel," said. the Count, moving forward. coVon do," returned Kuria, nut at all surprised by the visit, since people of all classes were iu the habit of Milling at his place to order arms. "You are acquainted with the Lady Rosalind Valdal?" be said. "I am answered Burk, now beginning to won der. "Well, sir," resumed Damonoff, with much haughtiness, "perhaps my business can be quick -fyrand eatisfactorily settled. It is 'my desire to make t h e 14.3".1tasaliald 'wife, Rune:Novel startled at these wor‘ds, ariii he clasped ins hands to hide their tremulousness. But he was not long debating upon an answer. "And why have you come to me with this in formation, sir ?" be asked. 'Retie Navel, you shall not say that I did not make myself fully understood, and hence I will explain.' The Count smoke this as,speaka a man who feels that he is•doing a very :condescending thing,,and in the same tone ho proceeded ..;The Lady Rosalind is of noble parentage and very wealthy.

But Ru rio took it not. He drew .hack and • gassd the visitor sternly in the facie. 'Sir Count,' he said, ealmnly and firmly, 'you have plainly stated your proposition, and I will as plainly answer. I cannot sign the paper.' 'lla gasped Damonoff, in quick passion.— 'Do you refuse?' 'Most flatly. • 'But you. will sign it ]'.hissed Dan:lona; turn ing pale with rage. ,Here it is—sign ! If, you would live—sign !' • 'Perhaps he cannot write,' suggested Crum, con teal ptuously. 'Then he may make his mark,' rejoined the Count, in the same contemptuous tone. •'lt might not require much more urging to in- Mice me to make my mark in a manner not at nit agfeenble. to you, sir,' the youth retorted, with his •teeth' now, set, and the dark veins upon his brow starting More plainly ont.

She was only nine. teen years of ago, and she bad been ten years an orphan. There was nothing of the aristocrat in her look—nothing proud, nothing haughty; but gentleness and love were the true elements of her soul. 'How now, Zenobie ?'• asked Rosalind, as her waiting-maid entered. •There is a gentleman below who would see .7OU,' the girl replied. 'Then toll him I cannot see him,' said Rosa- Lind, trembling. • •fut it is Rorie Novel, my mistress.' 'Rude!' exclaimed the fair maiden, starting up, while the rich blood. mounted to her brow and temples, 'O,I am glad be has come. Ity prayers ere surely answered. Lead him hither, Zenobie.' The girl departed, And ere long 'afterwards Rorie entered the apartment. He walkod;quick ly to where Rosalind had arisen to her"•feit; hod taking one of her bands in both" of his own ;he pressed it to his lips. It was with difficulty ho spoke. But the emotions of his soul became calm at length, and then he received Roeatind'e prolviae that she would never permit her hand to be diepueed of to another" y the Duke of Tula. Runic informed her of the visit ofCount Damon off to his shop. its purpose and the result. Ro salind was astonished and alarmed. Still, she could not believe that the Duke meant to bestow her hand upon Dainonoff. The Duke cwed him money, she said, and might perhaps ho playing with the Count. Rorie started as a new suspicion flashed upon him. Had the Duke-sent Datennoff upon that mission on purpose to get him into a quarrel.— 'Aye; thought the youth to himself, the Duke knows that I have taught the sword-play, and he knows that the Count would be no match for me. So he thinks in this subtle manner to wake me an instrument for ridding him of a plague.' But the youth was careful not to let Rosalind know of this.- He thought she would be unhappy if she knew that a duet was likely to come off between himselfand the count. After eoine minutes of comparative slknee, Iturie took leave of Rosalind, and was soon in the open court,. Here be entered his sledge, and then drove to the barracks in Om lihitago .rod, where he inquired,for a young friend named Orso, a lieutenant ufmlre guard. The officer was quiekly found, and be met Rorie his , salute . then was warm and cordial. After the first friend ly greetings had passed. Rorie remarked, ' , Luray k have a ineting,tri with Conrad Count Dltonoff. 'll.e bas'soug t - a flea rrel—iesulted g rims ly,—aimed a blow at my he id—and I knocked him,down. You ma judge as well as I what the result must be. ' Hero-- ";Nest surely be will challenge you, cried the officer, excitedly. "Su I think," resumed Runic. calmly. "And now will you serve me in the,event ?" "With pleasure." And thereupon Runic related nil that had oc curred at the time of the Count's visit to his shop, nod then took his leave. •,, Ile reached home just as his mutiter,waseProad ing the board for dinner. He often went away on business, and she thought not , of. asking him any questions. On questioning Paul, irr timahop, in the after noon, lturie, to his great, surprise, - learned that the Black lidenklad been there during zhisi ab isence, to purchase a dagger ; that he had drawn out of the boy a minute account of the visit of Urzen and Dimmed; and that he seemed to be :much pleased with Ituriee conduct. As they were talking, Urzen called and presentsd a chal lenge from the Count. Rorie, at once referred bins to his friend, and be look his leave. That eveuing, about eight o'clock, a sledge drove up to Ruric's door, and young Orsa eu tared the 1101130. lie called Rude aside, and in folP.ed biuj thatthe granacraealS bRi all been mada. "Dumutieff is in a hurry," be said, "and we have appointed the meeting at ten o'clock to-mor row forenoon. It will take place at the bend of the river just beyond the Vis.ka "And the weapons?" asked Rorie. "Swords," returned Orsa. "The Count will bring his own ; and he giros you the privilege of selecting such an one as you choose.' "I thank you, Orsa, for your kindness thus far, and you may rest assured that I shall be prompt." "Suppoe I call hers in the morning for you?" suggested the visitor. "I should be pleased to have you do so," the ,gunmaker said; and thus it was arrangedi On the following morning was up be times, and at the breakfaafi table stake. word of the one all-absorbiag e theine was uttered. After the meal wlrsliiiished the gunmaker went out to his shop, and took down from one of the-closets a long leathern case, in which were two swords. They were Toledo blades, and 'of most exquisite workmanship and finish. Rurio took out the heaviest t ne, which was a two-edged weapon, with a cross hilt of heavily.glided metal. He placed thepoint upon the floor, and then, with all his weight hki-bent the Made till the pommel touched the point. The lithe steel sprang back to its Place 'with a sharp clang, and the was notstart ed. Then he struck the flat of the blade open the anvil with great force. The ring was sharp and clear, and the weapon remained unharmed. "By St. Micheal," said the gunmaker; to 'his boy, "Moscow does not contain another blade like that. Damascus never saw a better." "I think you are right, my, master," the boy re turned, who had beheld the trial of the blade with unbounded admiration. "But," he added, "could you not temper n. blade like that?" - "Perhaps, if I had tbe steel. But I hare it not,„ : The steal, pulse. two blades came from India, and was originally in one weapon—a pon derous, two-handled affair, belonging to a Ben gal ehieftain.
