Tlie Frau von Meyer was a happy woman, Ono of our earlier poets lias attempted to resolve happiness Into a few very Blmplo ' elements, of which the chief aro tho possession of n biloved object, a puistiit nf absorbing interest, aud oxer cise in the opsn nir. Miriam von Meyer combined theso tlireo constituents in tho fullest measure; she was united to tlie only man site had ever wished to marry, and, identifying her intctrests with his ecientiflo ro foaichesinarclitBoluKy, she accompanied him over those par s of Asia and Africa which comprised liU field of study, m ikinq; extensive pilgrimages with him to the shrines of forgotton races, tho sites of o'd civilizations, unearthing their potteries nnd mutilated statues, puzzling out Ihelr mysterious hieroglyphics, and regarding Iter husband's share in tho in terpretation of ench now "find" as tho great debt par eminence owed byscionco to that painstaking explorer. The fiau herself did not look like an antiquity. She was a young and beauti ful Jowess, from n cslebraled Hamburg family; ono of tho luckiest "finds" Professor Fiiedrloh von Meyer over nind", for she endowed him not only with the dovotiou of nn ardent soul, but with tile treasures of an nmplo bank no count, which last insured him tho hide pendeuci so delightful to a mail who studies tor tho sake of knowledge, anu longs to work untrammelled by tho pressing need of public approval as represented in a good salary. The Von Meyers were advanced nine teenth century lovers, coming together willi congenial tastes, both of them fired with an intens3 desire to accomplish something in tho kingdom of mind, and resolved to provo to themselves and their ft lends that such an end can bo made perfectly consistent with tho sweeter and more subtle relations of life. It was not long before this couplo were drawn into tho magio sphere of old Egypt, with it spectral, imloflnito past who can doubt that Egyptology would offer the must adequate field for their dual energy au immortality in ilself? When a standing mystery of ovor B.OOD yean wns solved at last by'tho dis covery, at DIer el Uahari, of It mioses the Great tho Pharaoh of the Opprea Oppiession, tho Sesostrij of the Greek and SO oilier serene mummied high uesses, the exultation of the Von Meyers was quite equal to tiny bod r else's; they talkjtl of "dynasties," "cartouches," "scnral rai," "papyri," from morning until uiglit Tlie clinmx of tholr excitement was reached when, later on, the unfolding took place, and Pharaoh, relcasod from his bandages in tlie presence of tho Khedive nud other lesser dignitaries, wns indubitably proven to the modern world to bo himself, all that was left of him. Lnte one nfternoon, soon after the un folding, tho Von Meyers visited him in his Inst res lug rMnce, the Museum of Antlquition at Uulnk, the part of Cairo, After standing a long ti.no beforo tho class case which protected this most noble Pharoali from tlie profane toucli of tho curious, the professor remnrked to his wife that he had some business with n native outside tho museum. Would she go with him, or remain hero? "I will 6tay alono with Pharaoh," she said; then as he left her, Blio glanojd mound tho hall, nnd observed that not another pel son shared her solitude with tho mighly dead of Eypt to whom it was consecrated oven tlio ubiquitous rrunrd was nowheie to bo seen. "There is a sort of silent contempt for us nil in this hard, dry, old face. thought the lady, as she sennued the monarch closely. "Robbed of nil the illusions of flesh aud blood, there is yot a soul showing through these features.

Where can man go to get rid of universal lire? Tlicro have bcou no cms to hear, no eyes to see me. woman, it is a fearful doom to be alivo nnd to ba thought dead. Now, revisiting my ka (in which thero is ever a Intent humanity), I find for once a mortal in tlio right nttra to hear mo well do I know why child of thoso Hebrews who were onco tho slaves of Phnraoh, Shall I tell tlioo my post mortem history?" Tho frau stammers a word of assent, curiosity outweighing overy oilier emo tion; the kn does not pause nn instant; liis touo indicates that after' being bot tled up for ages ho is glad to bo 1 oleased, The court physician exnmlued my body aud said 1 was dead; they gavo it over to tho ombalmcrs; thou was there n great show of mourning throughout tho land for 70 days, tlio temples wero closed, no sacrifices oiTered, nil festivals suspended; men and wotnon fotobore to drink wino and to eat choice viands, thoy formed long processions, throwing dust on their head, rending their gar ments; many gated Thebos shut herself in like a stricken widow and cried ns with ono voice of woo to tho gods. Hypocrites! shall I tell tlieo, woman, how many really mourned for Phnraoh? Not so mauy as tlie fingers on these withered hands. Thescciet exultation in tho Iieatt of Menepthah at reigning in my sU.id disgusted me; it was a pain ful smprise, for ho was my son. Was it this tdiocls which paralyzed my facul ties? I know not. Is.iukinlo n leth argy, and whon 1 again became con scious it was in tho midst of nn nwful, thick darkness I groped about blindly I, Uamescs the Great in a horfiblo loneliness of spirit; no one .came near to attend mo to the judgment hall of Osiris, where the god awnited my com ing, witlt tho Egyptian crpss, tho 0111- blom of ctirnnl life, and tho flagellum of justice, tho 43 assessors-by his side. Mine was to bo tlie fullest union with the diviuity; I was to reign witli him forever. Still thero c.tmo no sign out of the darkness, Tlieu it dawned upon my intelligence, which was so keenly nlivo that my former cxhtonco was death in comparison, that I wns spared the common lot cf mortals; being far above them, as Peutaur had often sung, I was to escapo tlio sceno of judgnieut in the Hnll of Truth, aud would bo allowed to enter at onco the abodo of the jit Tied in tiie fivld3 of Aalu, "Though forsaken by all, yet did I sense other beings in tlio nir near mo, passing 1110 by, nil unmindful of my royal prosence. Then a terrible convio- Hon boro in on mo that I wa3 ushered into n world that was as thickly popu lated as tho one I had left, but for which my previous lifo had so ill pre pared ino that my senses wero not at tuned oven to its ordinary sights nnd sounds; my mind was outsido of its conditions, my spirit impervious to its sympathies. Annihilation, this, of which I never dreamed. It was maddening! "'Da you not know mo?' I cried wild ly, 'tlio representative on earth of tho great sun god. Ra? What, minions! silent still? Show mo tho royal road to the fields of Aalu, ' I command yon! Where aro tho gatokceporn of tho Hall of Truth? Surely thoy will know Pharnoh'. The shadous flitted by; whon I sttovo to grasp one, my hand closed on empty air. Sometimes a deep sigh, n groan, a mocking laugh answered mo 110 more. I can not say how long this lasted. An instinct told 1110 that tho connection botwoen my wandering spirit and its late tenement was not sovorod. I would return, then, unto the mummy and rest me. There, at least, in tlio mortuary chamber surrounded by overy tribute to my sovereign state, I should be again a king. All record of time was cone. "A long period of unconsciousness in my ka must have followed. Now and then comes to me some glimmer of ro membrauco of nuo.her body that I ani- mated on another planet, but it Is very faint. It may bs that this was n dream wliilo I slept in my ka, until the hunger for life awoke the higher ptinciple to action, I had not changed, SUII was I Raturses, who shifted tlio mastery of nations. One day, after going forth from my tomb aud oncounteting the same darkness as before, I bethc ught me of Amnion, .If there was a God I had been on intimate terms witli in. my earth life, it was Ammou; ho it was who presided over my marriage with Nefsrnri. OsIrls persisted in veil ing h.s glory, the Triad of Thebes was obdurate, but this gracious deity I might disoover. I readied out mine arms. now lustily I cried from tlie doptlts of mine nnguUli, 'Oh, Amnion, oome to Phnraoh ? Remember that he, too, is au immortall' "Joy unspeakable! For the first time since I was disembodied n voioe replied unto my oall. "'Know thyself, misguided mortal, nnd light will cotno. Thou art deserted by thy false govis. Did I not tell thee Israel's Ynbveb f Jehovah reigns alone?' ---Aegti "I knewntouos the voloe of Adah, the Hebrew woman. O..oe, long ago, on n fesst day, I was riding by the brick nrds in my chariot, wearing tho crown of tipper and lower Egypt; tho brickmakera fol'got their labor, ovou tlio overseers wero dazzled by iny exceeding splendor. AU felt on their knees as my chariot drovo slowly by, tho priest in my procession chant ing a hymn to Ra and to me. Whilo students came from abroad to con sult our magi, nnd the nobles of Egypt feasted riotously, these enptivos must needs labor in the brickyards, such was their fortune appointed by the gods. It were folly to mnko their task too easy, nnd givo them straw, too ready at hand for their brious; then would the chil dren uf Israel get from under the hand of Plinrnoh, nnd tho land again bo over run by wandering tubes. Nigh unto my chariot that day stood a comely young woman; she eoemod of kin to somo workman in tho brlckynrd, for sho ca tried on her arm a basket, ns if bring ing food, and when she stretched her neck to look at tho procession Iter veil fell back. I saw her face aud it found fnvor in my sight; thoy told me her 11.11110 was Adah, Tlio next morning I commanded that Adah bo brought into my palace. Thero was sho given ovor nt once unto tho handmaids,- and tho king's messenger bade them treat her no more ns n captive, but like unto a guest worthy of all honor; so tho handmaid ens did batlto her feet in a silver basin, and vlothed her in fino linen m tho place of her coarse garments; they nn- nointcd her hair witn sweet smelling oil and vrentlied her shoulder with a gar land of choico roses. After refresh ment she wns led into my presonco. I uiimiistcd my attendants; it was the king's wilt to be nlotiu with this fair Israelite. A lame Hon crouched at tho side of tho couch on which I was re clining. Tlio womin's faco blanched; sho gnvo a torrifi.u cry; but with ono hasty signal fiom 11.0 the beast fawned nt her feet in welcome; then I saw tho rose return unto Iter cheek, and it was beautiful. "Thou hast naught to fenr in tho house of Pharaoh,' I said; 'thou host a epell truly to subdue tho lion himself. The Lord of Diadems nud Dispenser of Life invites thoefrom this hour to mako thy homo in his palace among his hand maidens. Ho shall bo thy sun to givo thee light; forgotten shall be tho gloom of tills captivity,' A swift shadow fell upon her fea tures. 'Mighty nnd most gracious king, wouldst thou have mo desert mine own people?' "Ihou shalt drink of the wine of joy that brlngcth oblivion. I will havo theo remain with mo, Adalu' 'Hut thy servant has a husband in yonder brickyaid; a daughter of Israel must bo faithful to her husband and her God.' "I laughed with a fino scorn. Thero was no sign of yielding in the woman's f.ifo Then I was rngered, nnd 1 raised my voice, threatening her furiously with u uuug:ou Lunentlt tho palace, because of her foul ingratitude. Tho lion at my feet knew well his masters tone; his savage iintute woke; lie gavo one low, moaning growl and showed his teeth. One gesture moro from me aud lie had sprung upon her; but I would not this horror, so I stroro to bridlo mino own wratli and I laid also my baud on tho lion's neck. Au answering gleam of ilro leaped from tho black eyes of tho llobrow; sho fixed them without quail ing on tho beast and then on me, ns if she dared despise U3 both, and then, freezing all at once like unto a statue, sho gazed beyond me at a place in tho air over my head, as though she saw something invisible to other eyes; it was oven as if some power mightier thuu Phninoh's did gorern her. "'Thou mnyest chain my body to your dungeon, she said, 'but my hpirit will take flight to its lovo and its duty in yonder brickyard, Ihou oppressor of Ura ll' fiingiug, as she spoke, tho gar land of flowers fro 11 off her shoulders to tho floor. 'I spurn tho delights of this palace; give mo rather the hardships of euptivity, which will bo but for a seaeo 1. Then, Eypt herself shall bo n captive, her gods shall bo silent, and tho gnlos of their temples closed forover. Yahveh shall reign alone on the earth. Tlie dynasty shall bo clean wiped out of tlio laud, stran gers shall reign iu her high places until even tho longing for liberty which is Ueathlesi in tho Israelite shall be no moro in the heart of tho Egyptian. Thou, Oh Pliaraohl shalt bo laid low: oven in thy sepulcher thy bones shall find no rest, nnd tho dayB or thy puri fication shall not be accomplished until the daughters of Israel come to gazo upon theo nnd thou art a spectacle uuto tho curious.' "I glared nt her, speechless, wonder ing. Verily this woman must be of un sound mind tiius to defy the lord of tho earth with the senseless babble of her ptiests!
