Twilight floats from over the hills, A myetio presence the landscape fills, The cloudy courtiers have just beguh To usher to rest the setting sun; And the edge of the woods is dark aid clear, Cleaving the luminous atmosphere, While Hannah, as still as still can be, Is waiting under the walnut tree. But now and then a walnut drops From off the old tree's ripening tops, And Hannah starts, for she thinks her ear Has caught the steps of her lover near: So she hides and listens, and listens and thinks, While her little heart rises and swells and sinks, For the sounds of the falling walnut die, And no hastening lover meets her eye. He had sworn to geese. He told her so. Can he be false? Oh no! oh no! His heart-is as true as his eyes are clear— And yet she faints with a nameless fear! She listens anew, but there is no sound Save the walnuts dropping upon the ground; And the hills are blackening one by one, And her poor hopes sink with the setting sun. Ah! in the corn field down below, Where the maize is stacked and the poppies grow, Something is lying all stiff and cold, Close by a hillock of ears of gold; And the yellowing wreaks of the maize-leaves wave Like mourners over a loved one's grave, And the sleepy poppies their brown seeds shed, Itt slumberous tribute above the dead. Hannah may wait till the moon is up, And the dews overflow in the poppy's cup, Bat the longed-for lover will never stir From the furrow he lies in to fondle her : For a rival's knife his young heart has cleft, And the poppies are pale by the stain it left— The stain of the red blood flowing free, While Hannah waits by the walnut tree! The Little Girl at Prayer One eve when the moon was shining bright, And the stars were glittering all, I wont to the humble cottage-home Of little Catharine Hall.. I opened the door of this lonely house, Not an inmate could I see; But I heard an earnest, pleading voice, In a tune of agony.. I followed the sound to a cheerless room, And stopped; for, kneeling there, With folded hands, on the cold hearth stone, Was a little girl at prayer ! it * * I went that night to a festal hall Where the scene was gay and bright, And every lip in smiles was wreathed, And every heart seemed light. The room was filled with fairy forms, Without a trouble or care; They bade me smile, but my heart was away With the little girl at prayer. • Fair fingers swops the light-toned harp, And many a rare old song Was sung, and many a gleeful note Burst from that joyous throng. Fresh flowers were scattered all around, Their perfume filled the air; But the loveliest sight that !saw that night Was the little girl at prayer. TWO SCENES IN THE LIFE OF A PICTURE. SOENE I And you promise me then, Monsieur Gerard, that it shall be finishd in three, days ?' said the Empress. • The artist bowed profoundly, as he col lected his colors and brushes, and took down a small oval picture from the easel. The picture was a portrait of a beauti ful child—as yet a mere sketch, but the sketch of a practised and masterly hand. The original, in all the loveliness of life, lay in the arms of an attendant lady who stood by the side of the Empress. The child had just fallen asleep, and lay with one tiny fist knuckling its flashed face— an attitude which contrasted prettily with the somewhat prim propriety of the out lined figure upon the canvas. Other ladies of the Court stood round, all hushed in awful respect for the slum bers of the august baby. The Empress herself spoke in a loving motherly whisper, advancing a step or two towards the paint er. 4 And you promise me then, Monsieur flashing-aped, and of boyishly impetuous Gerard, that it shall be finished in three manner. Gerard turned as he burst into days 1' I the room, and welcomed him in his grave, Monsieur Gerard, bowing low, ventured quiet voice : upon no utterance. Placing the picture ' Ah, Gerioault.

However, we are wandering away from the subject in hand. The Empress Marie Louise had not long returned from Prague, where she bad parted with Napoleon, then setting forth on his Russian Campaign.— This will serve to.fix the date of our scene. It was early in the summer f 1812, so that his Majesty of Rome had lately begun to reckon by the year instead , of by the month, being now some year and two months old. Our artist, shut out from the imperial presence, left the Tuilleries, ad, crossing the Place de Carrousel, entered the Louvre. He had snug quarters in that place, some what high up, but with a good light to his painting room and plenty of space for the yards of canvas necessary'for his Battles and Coronations and Triumphal, Entries. Arrived there, he resumed his work upon the portrait. I Francois Gerard—not ' Grandville,' the book illustrator, but spremie7j i peintre de l'Empereur,' and afterwards idu Roi,' a man of many titles before he; died, Mon sieur le Baron, Chevalier of I do not know how many orders, member of all the acade mies under the sun—had the good fortune to paint the portraits of a greater number of illustrious people than any other artist that ever lived. Three sovereigns once sat to him in a single day—at twelve, the King of Franoe ; at two the Emperor of Russia ; at three, the King ,of Prussia ; which fact, though perhaps exceptional, may serve to recall some notion of the op portunities which he, above! other court painters had of coming into contact with noticeable people. How many royal per sonages, how many savants and wits, how many brave soldiers, how many charming women of the Madame Reoander type he painted, it would be diffioult to catalogue. Price Igucher, 6 le vieux dicible,' carried away a good sprinkling of them after the battle of Waterloo, taking a fancy to them in some interval of rouge et, noir during his lounge at Paris. I The baby-head was no very arduous task to the nimble fingers lof Monsieur Francois Gerard. Rosy oheeks and bright eyes came out rapidly; fowl fingers and thump developed themselves in the blotch which represented a fist ; tlin a touoh of blue in the drapery gave a. ( i rich, waxen hue to the flesh-tones, an a dash of shadow on the background ~,l )rought into light the scant golden hair. of a Grenze ish style of picture at all ; no affected simper, no exaggeration of nez retrousse. The artist erred rather in the opposite ex treme, making the infant features classic, and heroin. It would never do for a suck ing Cmsar to knuckle his fat flushed cheek, or to pucker his soft mouth into a coo, or to kink with his infantine 1 gs, after the , manner of real life. Athew school of painting had arisen. The meretricious minauderies of Watteau had ceased to be copied ; the antique sculptures and the paintings of the Italian masters, stolen from their old homes to enrich France, were now the models. Painting had be come, in a great measure, an imitation• of sculpture. The artist was still deepening the shadow under the waxen hand, when the door opened and a young man 'entered. He was very young, the moustache on his lip, cultivate it as he would, was scarcely per ceptible. He was decidedly (good-looking, y:r s_: •. ~:u . i ii:.-.T~.6EIATj9Pajj~AB3I:f7 *LANCASTER CM, PA., TUESDAY MORNING,. NO.TEMBER 20,1860. Swift has to say about men and horses.

Gerieault burst into a laugh, and began to repeat, in a voice whose expression mingled oddly the past monotony of the stage manner with his own natural en thusiasm for the subject, Dorante's descrip tion of his Cheval Alezan Una tete de barbe, avec Petrillo nette, L'enoolure d'un cygne, °Mee et bine dradte : Point d'epanles non plus qu'un lievre, oottrtjoints." After a pause, Gerard said Neither you nor I would care to go where this picture is going.' Where is that V asked Gericault.

Why should we not care to go, Gerard A - campaign would give us new ideas' Our heads are safer where we are. I am tired of war, for my own part.; and so are others, if rumor speaks truly. They say his Majesty of Naples; for one, has a longing to eat his macaroni in peace and quietness, and goes with no good will. g I don't believe it of le beau sabreur,' replied Gerioault. Why should France tire of victory The Emperor has the destiny of our country to work out, and he will do it. Go, little King,' he continued, raising his cap, and addressing the por trait : Go, little King, a harbinger of glory to our arms. Vive l'Empereur ! Vive la France !' With all my heart,' said Gerard, cold ly, still painting. Monsieur Gerard was no partizan, and served all dynasties, Bonaparte or Bour bon, with equal faithfulness. 43erioault, we find some two years later figuring in an aristocratic corps d'elite, who dressed themselves magnificently in crimson and gold, for the benefit of the returned Bour bons. He went into exile for the hundred days, and came back, and, after painting many horse-pictures, produced one great work, The Wreak of the Medusa,' which made his fame, and which hangs still, I believe, in the Louvre. The portrait of the baby-king reached the Emperor a day or two before the battle of Borodino. The tactios of the Russians were at length changed. Kutusoff had superseded Barclay, and the system of retreat which had saved Russia was laid aside for unwise defence. The hostile armies were drawn up face to face. Napoleon at length saw the long-wished for battle before him, This battle, and then another before the walls of Moscow, and then luxurious winter-quarters in that capital, and dictation of terms of peace to the Czar from the Kremlin—such was the programme of the future, the accomplish ment of which he did not doubt. The Emperor exhibited the picture to his soldiers before his tent. He never lost an opportunity of theatrical display. One can fancy the grim guards filing past the smiling baby-face, breaking their ranks and shouting, embracing each other, shed ding tears in their enthusiasm. Not a bad subject for a great French high-art pioture, this reviewing of the troops by his Majesty of Rome. It would be well for Monsieur Gerard, premier peintre," and so forth, to receive an order to cover a league or more of canvas with his notions of the The battle of Borodino was fought and won. The victory cost too much, and was barren of results. Historians say that Napoleon was not himself on that day ; that his orders were vacillating, and that he looked on at the tremendous contest with an unusual apathy. He himself pro nounced Borodino to be. his most brilliant feat of arms. From all parts of the field his generals sent to him for reinforcements; the Russians brought the whole of their reserves into action ; but Napoleon was inflexible in his determination to keep his own reserves intact. By bringing these into the field he could have rendered the victory decisive ; and the issue d the cam paign might have been. different. But he counted upon another battle before the walls of Moscow,. and wisely, though mis takenly, withheld his reserves for this. The evacuation and burning of Moscow would never enter into reasonable calcula tions of the future. So the battle was fought and won ; and the Rusians retreated, and the French re sumed their march towards Moscow. Meantime, Rostopohin, in command of that pity, was making patriotic speeches to the multitude, and promising to shed the last drop of his blood in defence of the capital. He was contriving the most wonderful machines for the destruction of the French army—huge balloons, which - were to pour down fire and brimstone, and other clever instruments of a like sort. Prognostics were not wanting; as they seldom are under circumstances of excite ment. If oxen did not speak, vultures, naught in the chains of the cross of the Great Ivan, hung suspended there a sign of hope to the people. But panic was stronger than patriotic enthusiasm. One long, ever-widening line of exiles began to pour from the city. Princes and their serfs, priests and their flocks went forth into the desert. Public archives, and the paraphernalia of religion were carried away. Solemn music of lamenting hymns died beyond the walls, as when, of old times, the gods departed from a falling city. Kutusoff retreated upon Moscow with an army ninety thousand strong, then retreat ed again, marched through the doomed city silently, and left it to its fate. The garrison followed, and those of the people that yet remained there. The prisoners were set free and left behind (so the most credible authorities relate,) to set fire to the city. Rostopohin's balloon-combusti blew were turned to a notable use. • I.ioh has been r as I know, s of the King !' said Geri y .Jove.! if I heads, 1 think and take to The last rush of the people, thus desert ed by the army, must have afforded " a scene of panic -terror. Ladies left their jewels ; serfs fled with no, thought of pro viding for the exigencies of the deserts that stretched between them and a place of shelter.

MoSeow. • * • - a From thi summit of the 'Mount of Sal vation,Napoleon w. first beheld' Mosco— The h uge city lay bathed in sunlight ;_ the Kremlin, cased inils armor of many colored steel, - glittered like fire, flashing out rays of brilliant light on the countless church-spires and palaces. • A radiant tremor quivered over those leagues of mag nificent buildings; shifting from tint to tint as if the city were some dolphin-hued leviathan. Never; perhaps, did such s scene of enchantment • break on mortaJ. eyes. Here was the goal of that long journey through the sterile steppes. Mos cow glowed, like a rainbow ou the horizon, sign of Boleti , and triumph. There 'were joyous congratulations among the commanders ; and the troops, as they came up, body after lbody, raised reiterated shouts of triumph. No one dreamed of the true state of the ease.— Napoleon still expected a battle. Though smaller towns on their route had been deserted and fired, it seemed , impossible that the Russians should devote their ancient capital to the same fate. A flag of truce from l!diloradowitch, the commander of the Russian rear-guard, met the , Emperor on the heights, and an armistice of two hours was agreed upon. So at length it became evident that; there was to be no second=battle-that the victory of Borodino had achieved the con quest of Moscow. Their good fortune was even better than the French, in their most sanguine hopes, had anticipated. Napoleon's tent was pitched on the heights, and there he remained expecting that a deputation of the Boyars would come forth to lay themselves and their city at his feet. He paced up and down; now looking upon a chart on which the long march of his army was mapped out ; now gazing forth on the great city,, whence he was to dictate a triumphant peace.-- The portrait of his son rested in, its open case against a seat, and the Emperor glanced at it from lime to time as he passed and re-passed. The chances at that moment seemed to be that this little Omar would outrival- his ancient Roman predecessors in extent of dominion. The Northern barbarians were eves now quell ed ready to his hand. Still the Boyars did not come. No doubt they were gathering together their chief treasures to bring as a peace-offering. No doubt those haughty princes were attiring themselves in sackcloth and ashes, and hanging chains upon their necks, that' they might extort by their humiliation mercy from their conqueror. " Darn entered, saying that there was a rumor that the inhabitants had•, deserted Moscow. Paha !' oried the Emperor. It is im possible !' The day passed on. The rear-guard of the Russians evacuated the city. The Cossacks, with whom Murat had been coquetting before the walls, disappeared too. The Emperor descended from the heights to the Dorogomilow Gate. Night was drawing on. The lustre of sunset had died from the burnished walls of the Kremlin ; the gilded balls on the summits of the countless church towers were flickering into d trkness one by one. Still no deputation! Surely the Boyars were prostrate in terror, think ing that they were beyond the pale of mercy. Go ; bring the Boyars before me,' said the Emperor to Darn. Darn entered the city, and returned.— Then the truth, the rumor of which had been gathering all day, was known—Mos cow was deserted. Its three hundred thousand inhabitants had gone into exile. * * The silence of the empty city was awful. The French troops were soared by the echo of their own steps as they defiled through the desolate streets. But the rich city, with all its palaces and their treasures, was at length in their posses sion. The lust of plunder soon conquered their first awe. On the next day the Emperor entered the Kremlin and took up his quarters there. With him want the portrait.— Here, in the palace of the Czars, his Majesty of Rome was installed. Napoleon was sad and thoughtful, as he might well be. This unexpected desertion of the capital spoke a language of no good augury. Still the actual state of things was favorable enough. The winter quarters were gained. Napoleon addressed from the Kremlin overtures of peace to the Emperor of Russia ; and set about preparing for the coming winter—arrang ing, among other things, what actors and opera.,singers should be sent from Paris to while away the time. On the first night many fires broke out in different parts of the city ; on the next morning the Exchange was in flames.— Such accidents are common enough in a city where an army is .plundering; but it soon began to be evident that there was a method in these conflagrations ; that, as the wind changed, they arose in new directions, and that they broke forth again and again after they had been extinguish ed. Here and there, too, a Russian incendiary was caught in the act, and bayoneted on the spot by the Frenish soldiers. Night came on again, and the wearied thousands slept. At midnight, two.Of&- cora, whose quarters, we're in the Kremlin, •were awakened by a glare of light. They started up, and beheld an immense con flagration, which the wind was driving directly towards them. At that moment, however, the wind changed, and the flames were oarried the other way. Seeing themselves in no immediate danger, they went to bed again and fell asleep. The wind veered from point to point, and the moment its changed, a fire sprang up in a new direction. No less than) five hun dred separate fires were kindled that night. The Kremlin was surrounded by . a girdle of flames. Moulins dawned unperceived, till it was broad daylight, by reason of the glare of the fires. All that day the flames raged. Scenes were enacted in the. biErniog city that might serve for models, of a hell! Among the flames rushed human beings hideous as demons. The malefactors whom Ros topohin had set loose were doing their work. Men and women, mad with drunk emu* ran hither and thither with torches in their :hands. Sonia leaped, with pals, into the flames • some MA howlbsg, clothes and hai; on fire ;. others, fought among turning.ruins over some article of plunder. it was impossible to quench the fires : they were beyond all Control; and; moreover,, Roitopphli 'had - taken special care' 'that the 'fiteengines should be de stroyea:Vbefore the 'evacuation of the oity. Nodal:lg could be done but to take.. terrible I vengeance on such stray incendiaries as could be found. I The fiery girdle about the Kremlin grew narrbwer. 'Napoleon Wair beset on all sides to leave it. There was a report that it Was undermined. Still - he remained. The , ffames raged around with a whirringras of innumerable wings : the air was hot and sulphurous : °loads of burning ashes were borne on the wind. Suddenly a ory was raised--' The Kremlin ie fired!' The Emperor ascertained the truth of the rumor ; and this bionght him to a de cision. Ho left the Kremlin, and, passing through the burning city, reached the Castle of Petrowsky on its outskirts. Now in the blurry of the flight, the por trait sof ? the King of : Roine 'was left behind in the Kremlin. , Four days afterwards, when the confla gration having abated, Napoleon returned to his old quarter& in the Kremlin, which had escaped the flames, the filature had disappeared. Whither it was spirited away I cinnot tell. Perhaps one of Rost opchin's malefactors or a Cossack, took a family to the babf-f r aise I like to think think that this picture is existent some where still—perhaps in some splendid palace of , a. Russian prince,. perhaps in some squalid Cossack hut. .• Napoleon took from Moscow the Cross of the Great Ivan; and other trophies (which, by the way, in his diastrous re treat, were thrown into the Lake of Gem lewo); but this trophy of the portrait of his Majesty of Rome remained to the Mus covites.
