Brave young hearts had ceased their beating, brows in manhood’s prime were low; Palid faces drawn in anguish, strong hands severed by the foe, • All in silent horror resting —victor, vanquished, side by side'; With no holy rites of burial—just as if no Christ had died! When the fall moon rose in splendor, on that field of ghastly dead, On a little mound reclining, lay a young and gentle head; Twenty summers had not stolen from his cheek the boyish bloom, And the spring-time of his manhood had not shed its fresh perfume; Now he lay a mangled martyr, with no comrade at his side, With no friend in earth or heaven—just as if no Christ had died! 6oft!y with its gentle kisses, came the night wind on his hair, Lifting up its gory masses, laying the white fore head bare. ’Twas a mother’s soul that sent it, for in midnight watches came To her weeping eyes the vision of a battle field of flame; And her boy lay pale and bleodiog, with nocomrade by his side— Vain had been her prayers and weeping—Just as if no Christ baa died ! Through the torrid days the wounded, mMmed and mutilated lie, w (Corses piled above, around them,) sick and lone un heeded die; ' Not a drop of grateful water to the parchiDg lips may come, Nought is heard afar in distance but the slow re treating drum, And the trains of ambulances, slowly moving, side by side, Laden all with human anguish—just as if no Christ had died I Now another day has risen, still the maimed are helpless there, And the lcctid dead are sending poisoned vapors through the air; And the sick and limbless soldiers shout in agony in vain! Men who left your wives and mothers, ye will never meet again! And the son goes down in glory on tho dying, side by side— Forsaken both by earth and heaven—just as if no Christ had died! O’er the land, in every hamlet, wails aro on the moaning air, "Every hearth has lost a loved one—who will fill the empty chair ? And the Fiend of War. is rushing, on his wild steed, fierce and fast, And his trumpet’s shrieking clamor echoes on the midnight blast. And the angels all have left us—to our sin, and to our pride— And the heavens are closed upon us—just as if no Christ had died ! Woman! thou art nearer Heaven—rear our house* hold altars now, Pile on them the nation’s sorrow, be the weeping priestess tbon! Gather in the broken-hearted—hoary men, too proud to wail; Mothers, daughters, palid statues, orphan children thin and pale ; Widows, desolate and pining—none to sucoor, none to guide— With no triend in earth or heaven—just as if no Christ had died ! Dreary homes, whioh love had lighted, gone is all your sunshine now, What to you the victor’s triumph V—what the wreath that binds the brow ? Blighted hearts, whose desolation none can ever sooth - or sh&re, Earth’s to you a darkened horror—let your agony be prayer— Let the sacrifice of sorrow ope the gates of mercy wide; Give ua peace, 0 Lord of Nations, let not Christ in vain have died! Beaver, Pa. MARRIED BY COMMAND. Once upon a time there lived Dear the fort of Marienbnrg, in Prussia, a farmer of the name of Reiwal. Re had two daughters—charming girls. These two daughters were in love, and engaged to be married to two soldiers—ono each, of conrse. Brothers they were, and as strap ping fellows as ever Great Frederick could wish to see. It was expected that the regiment in whioh the brothers served would soon be at the neighboring fortress ; and then the marriages would take plaoe. Charlotte,the younger sister, on the day in question, busily employed in knitting, while watching her father’s goats, when an old gentleman, of noble and majestic carriage, stopped before her. He held a cane in his hand, and wore a mili tary hat and boots, and a great coat with a large cape. , The young., shepherdess had never seen this gentleman before, and his presenoe— she knew not why—inspired her with a feeling of awe. After regarding her for some minutes with an arch smile, he thus addressed her: ‘ What is your name my pretty girl V Charlotte Keiwel, at your service V answered she. ‘At my service! Well, I may, perhaps, require you. How old are you’’ ‘ Eighteen, at Candlemas.’ ‘ What is your occupation ’’ ‘ I am shepherdess to my parents, who are farmers in tho valley.’ . ‘ Ton are not married ’’ ‘ Not yet, your lordship.’ ‘ Have you a dowry V ‘I do not know.’ ‘ Well, here is something towards one, if you will serve me, as you promised to do just now,’ said he, plaoing in her hand a purse containing two hundred gold florins. So strange did this proceeding appear to the simple and timid shepherdess, that she was quite alarmed ; and, believing the fine gentleman to be a sorcerer, his gold seemed to burn her fingers. In the mean time, the stranger, taking a note-book from his pooket, wrote a few words upon a sheet of paper, which he oarefully sealed. Then he continued: ‘ To gain two hundred florins, you have only to carry this to the fort of Marien burg. If you show this seal, all the guards will let you pass, r You must ask for Major Keller, the commander, and give the letter into his hands. Do you under* .stand, and promise to do' what I have told yon V Charlotte wished.to reply in the negative, but to refuse seemed to her even more difficult than to aooept; so that, not Blow ing what'to say, she was silent, and the stranger, oonoluding that her silenoe gave assent, left her the letter and the purse. When he was out of sight, the terror stricken girl ran to her sister, and related her adventure. ■ _ Catharine was the very reverse of'her . timid, gentle sister* She was a fine, inde pendent, spirited girl, who would go through anything to gain her end; she ! liked nothing better than a mystery, and danger even had a charm for her. * A commission for Marienburg 9 ex-1 claimed she; ‘itis a God-send. Call bim a good angel, rather than ■ a demon, who" brought it. Oar betrothed, the sergeants Albert and Ludwig Hosten, have been on the march for the fortress the last three days. JJy these means we may obtain news of them, and perhaps even see them to-day. What a surprise for them, and what joy for ns ! to say nothing abont the two' hundred gold florins, which are not to be picked np every day.’ Saying these words, she took the parse, and turning the precious letter first on one side and then on the other, she called upon Charlotte, in the name of their betrothed, to go immediately to the fort, while she took care of the goats. ‘Never!’ replied Charlotte; I aha 1 never have courage. If you like to go in my stead,’ added she, ‘ I will make over the two hundred florins to you.’ ‘ I will aooept half,’ replied Catharine, quickly; ‘we shall thus both have a dowry, and—who knows ?—perhaps be married to-morrow.’ Letter in hand, Catharine soon reached the fortress, the gates of which were opened to her at the sight of the mysteri ous seal. She was much pleased with the deference which was paid her, and made up her mind that the stranger must have been some great personage, and that the letter contained something important. She examined it over and over again, burning with curiosity to know the oontents. She endeavored to peep into the envelope, but in vain. *lf I should, without knowing it, cause a coup d'etat, tr a revolution!’ ex olaimed she. ‘ But, after all, what are the secrets of peace and war to me ? The great thing is to ascertain if Ludwig and and Albert are here.’ The oommander, a crabbed-looking old soldier, who had grown grey in the service of his king and country, now entered to relieve her suspense. Having eyed her from head to foot, he said : ‘ One of the fair sex asked for me. It was you, young girl. Here I am. What can I do for you ?’ ‘ls it Major Keller, oommander at Marienburg, to whom I have the honor of speaking V ‘ The same.’ ‘ I am commissioned to give this letter into your hands, major,’ said Catharine, presenting the letter. ‘ Prom whom did you receive it V con tinued he. ‘ Prom a stranger who passed down the road about an hour ago.’ £ Let me see,’ said he, starting as he recognized the seal, and taking off his hat, he made a military salute. Catharine was quite astonished to find that the despatoh of which she was the bearer, reoeived as much honor as herself. Having read the letter, Keller burst in to a sudden fit of laughter, and then as suddenly grew grave again, and, taking out a double eye-glass, silently regarded her for some time. ‘Would you like to be a vivcmdierV asked the determined major. ‘Vivandier ’ That would depend on the regiment. If it were, for instanoe, in the third .’ ‘ \V hat is your dowry ’’ interrupted ho. Catharine, thinking tho major’s question very original, and wondering what he would say next, answered, ‘ Not a large sum—one hundred gold florin i ; the car riage of the letter which I have given you.’ ‘ Well, that is a dowry for a soldier.’ , vCertainly—especially for a sergeant. But you have not told me if the fifth com pany of the third regiment ’ ‘ Yes, yes ; we will see about that. It is a company of picked men, measuring five feet six inches ; and I doubt if your figure . Permit me mademoiselle,’ said he drawing his sword, and taking her measure with the blade. ‘ Five feet, at least. Not amiss, not amiss !’ ‘ Major, do you wish to enrol me in the king’s army V exolaimed she. ‘ It is already done, my darling. I have but to choose the corps, and I think you will belong to the Grenadiers.’ ‘To the Grenadiers ! Ah, well ! What does it matter 1 You are joking, oom mander.’ ‘Joking—with this letter! Stay, there is no longer -any mystery ; you may read it yourself.’ Catharine took the letter from Major Keller’s hand, and read as follows : ‘ Order to Major Keller to choose one of the handsomest men in the regiment, and to marry him to the young girl-—the bearer ef this dispatoh. (Signed,) ‘ King Frederick II.” ‘ The king! It was the king ! Good heavens!’ . ‘ The king, himself. Are you not de lighted to have made his acquaintance V Catharine was stupified, and exclaimed —‘ To marry me ! I will never give my consent !’- ‘ Your consent!’ replied Keller, showing her the letter; ‘of that there is no mention in this order ’ Saying these words, he rang the bell, and said to the soldier who answered his summons : ‘ An order from the king for the ohap lain, A marriage to be solemnized in half an hour.’ ‘ln half an hour!’ oried Catharine ‘lt is impossible ! It is a wilful injury.’ ‘ When 1 say half an hour, perhaps a quarter will suffice. The time to measure eight or ten grenadiers, and to choose one among them of the right proportions,’ said he, measuring Catharine again with eye. ‘ About five feet four or six inches. A fair complexion to form a contrast Mademoiselle,’ continued he, with a, mili tary salute, ‘ I shall be at your service in a few minutes.’ Presently Keller returned, holding a paper in his hand. ‘ 1 have found your man,’ said he ; ‘and you are to sign this promise of marriage with him for the chaplain, as the law re quires the oonsent of the parties.’ Catharine, recovering from her dejeotion exclaimed: ‘Consent! Ah! this paper has to be signed’ You must have my name . -Well, major, I will allow myself to be out into pieoes rather than sign that paper 1 sdded she, standing in an attitude of determination before Major Keller. ‘ Really, you would make an admir'able grenadier,’said he. He then read aloud the promise of marriage, as follows • ‘ We the undersigned (you will add yourname,-) and Sergeant Hosten, of the third regi ment of the grenadiers——’ s “ THAT COUNTRY IS THS HOST PROSPEROUS VHBI LABOR COMMANDS XHI GREATEST Mwm »»■ LANCASTER CITY. PA.. TUESDAY MORNING., SIiPTFMKKT? 16. 1862, Hearing the name Hosten, Catharine changed countenance. ‘ Can it. be Ludwig V thought she; then, indeed, fortune has favored me.’ . The major went on_ reading—‘ Promise to take each other as man and wife.— Marienburg, 15th March, 1780. There, mademoiselle, you see it is not long. Will you sign this paper 1 Yes, or no ? No, did you say ? Then we must take strong measures,’ said he, as he was about to pull the bell. Catharine stopped him, saying, ‘I beg your pardon, major; I did not quite un stand. The name of the intended, if you please V ‘ Sergeant Hosten,’ replied Major Kel ler. ‘ Is it possible ?’ ‘And why not? Make yourself easy. He is a brave,lhandsome fellow, five feet five inohes and a half, at ledst.’ Catharine could hardly believe her ears, so providential did this circumstance ap pear to her ; the distress which she had experienced but a few minutes ago was suddenly changed at the sight of this name into eostaoies of joy. ‘Well, do you still refuse?’. said the major. ‘ I consent, major, and am ready to sign. Long live King Frederick!’ ‘ All in good time. I was sure of it—l know the Bex.’ When he had left the room, Keller oalled Sergeant Hosten. Albert (for this was the young sergeabt’s name) now entered, making a military salute. On perceiving the young girl, he exolaimed— ‘ Catharine ! the sister of my betrothed ! What an unexpected pleas ure !’ ‘.Albert, my sister’s lover ! Oh, orue' mistake!’ ejaculated Catharine, her dreams of happiness onoe more vanishing. ‘ Commander, what are your orders ?’ They are these, Sergeant Hosten. In the king’s name you are appointed to marry this young girl.’ At the words, ‘in the king’s name,’ Albert shouldered his arms ; but on hearing the words which followed, he suddenly let fall his gun, and stood as if petrified. ‘ Do you understand V ‘ Yes, commander,’ said Albert, me chanically. ‘ A quarter of an hour is given you to become acquainted with eaoh other, and to sign the promise of marriage.’ ‘ Pardon—excuse, major,’ cried Albert. ‘ Doubtless his majesty’s oommands—it is my duty to—but you understand that in a quarter of an hour ’ ‘ Are you speaking at random V asked the major, interrupting him. ‘ No, major, no! But the surprise, the arrangement. Scarcely arrived in the garrison, and to be all at once married ! It is like a cannon which goes off before the match has taken light. After all, what claim have I to mademoiselle’s hand V ‘Five feet and nearly six inohes. She is contented with that. Look at her, and take example by her.’ ‘ What! does mademoiselle consent to this marriage V ‘ She asks nothing better.’ ‘ That is to say, major,’ put in Catha rine ; ‘ permit me ’ ‘ You oried, ‘ long live the king !’ and volunteered to sign immediately,’ inter rupted the major. ‘ 1 was mistaken, commander,’ replied she. ‘ I thought that it was Ludwig Hos ten, my betrothed, and it is Albert Hos ten, his brother, who is my sister’s affianced husband. You deceived me by telling me that Albert was in the fifth company.’ ‘ I was a month ago,’ replied Albert.— ‘ I exchanged with my brother. You see, major, it was thus the mistake arose.’ ‘Pooh! pooh! Have done with all these stories. The king’s letter is all I care about,’ exclaimed he, reading it again. ‘ Order to Major Keller to choose a soldier of the garrison, and to marry him imme diately to the young girl who presents this letter to him.’ Nothing is said there about sister, brother, or lovers. You, my dear, were the bearer of the letter, and you, sergeant,' I have chosen. You shall be married. These are my orders. You have lost five minutes,’ said he, pulling out his watch; ‘ you have now only ten left. Make up matters; I will leave you together until my return.’ ‘ One moment, major, and you shall know all,’ said Catharine, detaining him. ‘ It was not to me, Catharine Reiwel, that the king gave this letter, but to my sister Charlotte Riewel, whom he met on the road. Charlotte did not dare to come to Marienbnrg, so I came in her stead.— Therefore, it is my sister who is to marry Albert; and if you marry me to him, you will disobey the king.’ ‘ Really, if it were true,’ said Keller, hesitatingly. ‘ I am to marry Charlotte, by the orders of his Majesty,’ said Albert. ‘lf you doubt my word,’ continued Catharine, ‘ have Charlotte brought here ; she will confirm all I have said.’ ‘ Send for Charlotte,’ supplioated Al bert. ‘ Peace and sign. I shall be back be fore long,’ said Major Keller, as he left the room. For some time Catharine and Albert were silent. ‘ How are we to get out of this scrape V at leogth asked Catharine. ‘ I would blow up Marienbnrg, sooner than marry you ’’ oried Albert, furiously. ‘ And 1 would rather be buried than become your wife!’ exolaimed Catharine, weeping. ‘ Poor Charlotte ! When our parents betrothed us, who would have imagined that suoh a misfortune would separate us ?’ ‘ And separate ns just as we were about to be united !’ ‘ But it is not yet done ! It is impossi ble, if we neither of us sign.’ ‘ Do you know what I fear, Alhert ’ — That they will dispense with our signa tures, and marry us in spite of ourselves.’ ‘ln spite of ourselves! ’ oried Albert, in a paroxism of anger. I would sooner tear the hair from your head, my good Catharine. That is the least I owe to Charlotte.’ ‘ I would sooner soratah out your eyes, my dear Albert,’ exolaimed Catharine, in an ecstacy of grief. ‘ Ludwig may depend upon me for that.’ At this moment Major Keller entered, followed by two soldiers. Albert and Catharine, separating suddenly, looked anxiously towards him. ■ ‘ All in good time,’ exolaimed the major. ‘ You have agreed at last. I expected as muoh-—I know the/air sex.’ Then, turn ing to Albert, he said, in a low voioe: <ln oase of any hesitation on your part, my fine fellow, I have brought you two com rades from the reinforcement, charged to; take you before the court martial, if you have not signed at the fourth beat of the drum. There is the firgt,’ added he, as the drum was heard ontside. Albert started at the sound. ‘You know tbe disoipline,’ continued the major ; < dis obedience to the king—penalty of death —shot immediately! Come, sergeant,’ added he, pointing to the table, < take the pen. Now for the conjugal flourish !’ Catharine, suddenly regaining her self possession, exolaimed: ‘He will not sign, major; he does not wish to sign—neither do I! He.detests me—l exeorate him ! Ask him if it be not so.’ Keller was quite puzzled what to make of this sudden ohange, and said, address ing Albert: ‘ Your betrothed is joking, I imagine V Albert answered, timidly: ‘ But she is not my betrothed, oommander. Charlotte, her sister, is my betrothed.’ ‘ Always the same story ! I will not stand it any longer,’ said Keller. And addressing the soldiers : ‘ Advanoe— shoulder arms, present arms. You know the orders; that is enough.’ The two men, obedient to the command, placed themselves on either side of Albert. Ma jor Keller then addressed the latter in a low tone : ‘ Pay your court now, and I will aid you as well as I can with my ex perience of the fair sex ; and the drums will serve as a serenade. If, at the seoond beat, you are not at the feet of your in tended—if, at the third, she does not hold out her hand—if, at the fourth you do not both sign, it is evident that you would rather marry a score of balls, and they shall be served to you hot.’ At these words Albert shuddered, in voluntarily. ‘ Twenty balls !’ thought he, ‘ and he will do as he says. Good heavens!’ ‘ Not a word to the young girl,’ con tinued Keller, still speaking in an under tone. ‘ Bespeot for the feelings of fair ladies. I wish for her free consent.’— Having said this, Keller twirled his moustache, and stationing himself in front of the young people, took up a newspaper and began to read. After a short interval the drums were heard, and the major spoke. ‘ Sergeant Albert Hosten,’ said he, ‘ what are your sentiments towards Catharine Beiwel, whom his Majesty has appointed to be your wife ?’ ‘ Now is the time,’ said Catharine, in a low voice. ‘He is relaxing. Say that 1 inspire you with horror.’ ‘ Well; yes,’ said he, with an effort; ‘ Catharine inspires me ’ He had got so far when the drums beat the second time. He suddenly interrupted himself and, as they beat louder and louder, fell on his knees before her, exclaiming: ‘ I love you Catharine—l love you with all my heart! I adore her, commander—l I adore her !’ Turning to Catharine, who knew not what to think, he said, in an un dertone : ‘ I hate you, never fear ; but do not contradict me, or I am dead.’ ‘Very well!’ exolaimed Keller, at the third beat, as he watched Albert in the aot of kissing Catharine’s hand. ‘ Ser geant Albert Hosten, does your Catharine reoiprocate your sentiments V ‘ Yes, commander, she loves me—she loves me to desperation ; but excuse the first moment—she is in reality as delighted as I am. She thanks the king ; she thaDks you—we both thank you.’ Again the drums were heard. ‘ls it not so, my good Catharine V Then, in a low voice— ‘lt is for Ludwig! He is lost if you do not give me your hand.’ Catharine was quite distraoted at these words ; this was the only thing which could shake her determination. If Lud wig were in danger she would do anything to save him. She was silent. The sound of the drums decreased. ‘ For Ludwig,’ repeated - Albert, em phatically ; and poor Catharine oould no longer resist, and gave her hand to Albert. The drum oeased. ‘ You see, major,’ oried Albert trium phantly, ‘ she has given me her hand !’ ‘So much the better*! Now, Sergeant Hosten and you Catharine Reiwel, yon have only to sign the engagement, whioh is on the table.’ At these words they looked at each other in consternation, for they knew that if they signed they could never retract. ‘ You first, sergeant.’ ■ ‘ Yes, major—certainly ; I am going .’ Then hearing tho drums he started, and approaohed the table. Ho hesitated, but the drums beat again ; he took the pen, then threw it down, and passed his band aoross his forehead, in great per plexity. The drums continued to beat.— ‘Shot! shot!’ thought he,quiokly taking up the pen again, and preparing to sign. Catharine, who had been eagerly watch ing his every movement, oaught his hand. ‘Oh ! yon will not do that, Albert:’ ‘ No, never !’ oried Albert, recovering himself; ‘ rather die !’ Then, after a pause, during which the last beat of the drums grew fainter and fainter, and at last oeased. Keller, who had' been attentively observing the scene, now said, as he slowly rose— ‘ You have not signed ?’ ‘ No, sir,’ replied Catharine, resolutely. ‘ I will marry no one on this earth but Ludwig.’ ‘ No, major,’ ohimed in Albert, in the same tone. ‘ I shall look forward to meet ing Charlotte in heaven.’: - ‘ Well, exeonte your orders,’ oried Kel ler to the two soldiers. ‘ Arrest the ser geant. Forward maroh 1 To the court martial, to be instantly judged, and shot as a rebel to the commands of the king.’ ‘Albert!’ shrieked Catharine. ‘ Farewell, Catharine,’ answered Albert, surrendering his arms to the. soldiers, and preparing to follow them. ‘Be happy with Ludwig, and tell Charlotte that I die for her.’ At these words Catharine sank into a chair, in a paroxysm of grief. But, just as the soldiers were leaving the room with Albert, the sound of drums was again heard. There were ories of I To arms ! to arms !’ ‘ What is that ?’ oried Keller in a tone of astonishment. Soldiers belonging to the king’s escort here entered the apartment, and among was Ludwig. They were followed by an officer, who announced ‘ His Majesty the King!’ Catharine’s eyes suddenly met those of Ludwig. ‘Ludwig here! oried she.— ‘ What good angel sent you?’' ‘My bomjpatiy entered the fort at the same time as that of his • Majesty; and Charlotte—’ ‘ Charlotte with the king!’ - exolaimed Albert, scarcely daring to believe his eyes. . - - . ‘ Yes, Charlotte,’ said the king, advan cing, holding the trembling girl by the hand. Keller bent one knee to the ground, but. was immediately raised by the king, who said', ‘No ceremony here, major; I am here incognito. I bring Charlotte Kie wel, in order to oonviet her of being a little rebel against the oommands of his Majesty.’ * How is that, sire ?’ ‘About an hour ago I was walking in the fields, like a simple mortal, when I met the goddess of grace, who answers to the name of Charlotte. I considered that in marrying her to a handsome soldier, I should make an admirable , couple. You know that this is one of my hobbies. I therefore gave her a letter for you, major, in whioh, without her knowledge, I charged you to find her a husband.’ ‘ I reoeived the letter, sire, but this young girl was the bearer,’ said he point ing to .Catharine. ‘Ah ! ah! Catharine, the sister of my messenger, she who had the courage to take her place. Another rebel.’ ‘lwas ignorant, sire, that I had the honor of parrying an order from your Maj esty,’ said Catharine. ‘ And if you had known it, what would you have done ?’ ‘ Well to tell you the truth, I should not have delivered it. I should have found someone, else—my brother, for in s.tanoe, or my great aunt, who is sixty-six. We should have seen if the major would have found some handsome soldier to mar ry her.’ ‘ Courageous and clever, as they told me—and oharming,in fact, as her sister!’ exolaimed Frederick, kissing her on the foi ehead. ‘ Kings have the same privilege as old men,’ continued he. ‘ Imagine my surprise, major, when, about half an hour ago, passing the place where I met Char lotte, I still found, quietly watohing her goats, the young girl whom I believed to be already betrothed to a grenadier at Marienburg. She told me all—she asked my pardon,’ said he, smiling. ‘ But lam angry ; I have been relentless, and I have brought the criminal to the fort, where I intend that my oommands shall be exeouted by a regular marriage.' ‘ For pity’s sake, sire,’ entreated Char lotte, looking at Ludwig ; ‘ my hand is not free, lam already betrothed. I conjure you to take my sister in my place.’ ‘ Always your sister ! But it is proba bly too late. I suppose you have already married Catharine, major, as I com manded.’ 1 Nearly, sire. I have measured mad emoiselle ; above five feet. I have meas ured my choice soldiers, and chosen one of five feet six inohes—Sergeant Hosten. Here he is,’ said he, pointing to Albert. ‘ But I had to do with two obstinate peo ple. The young girl resisted, the Bergeant made wry faces ; in short, 1 was just threatening him with oourt martial and discharge of musketry, when your maj esty —’ ‘ Discharge of musketry !’ exolaimed the king. ‘ Oh, major, that was rather too military.’ ‘ The guns were not yet loaded, sire,’ replied the major, smiling ; *it was merely a joke of mine. I know the fair sex.’ ‘ And why, Mademoiselle Catharine Reiwell,’ continued she king, ‘ would you not marry Sergeant Albert Hosten?’ ‘ Because I am betrothed to Sergeant Ludwig Hosten,’ answered she, boldly. ‘ That has been her song for the last hour, and I would not believe her,’ said the major. ‘ A letter was brought me from your majesty—a command to marry the bearer. The bearer was Catharine.— I have not deviated from that; I only at tend to the orders. Catharine will marry Albert, unless your Majesty gives a ooun ter-order.’ ‘Oh, sire, a oounter-order!’ pleaded Charlotte, on her knees. 1 Sire, a oounter-order, in the name of heaven!’ implored Ludwig and Albert, kneeling before the king. . ‘ How is it that you do not join in the ontreaties, Catharine ?’ asked the king. - ‘ Because, oounter-order or no cohnter order, I will marry no one but Ludwig my betrothed.’ ‘Charming, charming!’ cried the king, laughing. Then addressing the three young people kneeling at his feet, ‘ Rise, my ohildren. Albert and Charlotte, stand here,’ said he, pointing to his right.— When they had done as he commanded, he added, ‘ Ludwig and Catharine, stand there,’ pointing to his left. They obeyed. ‘Two brothers—handsome grenadiers,’ said he, smiling ; ‘ two sisters—snperb girls. Now, Major Keller, measure each of the couples.’ Keller gravely unsheathed his sword, and proceeded to measure the young peo ple. ‘ Five feet six inohes, against five feet one inoh and a half; and five feet five inches and a half, against five feet two inches.’ ‘ What do yon think of that doable pro portion 1’ asked the king. ‘ The two couples are not amiss; but Albert would be more suitable to Catha rine,’ responded the major. ‘ Bah ! for half an inoh!' exolaimed the king. ‘ Besides, Catharine and Ludwig may grew yet. Deoidedly, I will give the counter-order, and make two matches in stead of one. Of oourse, 1 shall add two hundred golden florins to those I have al ready given.’ ‘ Oh, sire, how can we thank you enough V oried the four young people at onoe. The two couples were nnited, and thus the cloud, which had so suddenly obscured their bright hopes, was as quickly dispel led, and only caused the sunshine of their happiness to seem the brighter.

The advantages of this method of mounting teeth over the metalic base have been tally established in the five years in which It has been subject to the severest tests, with the. most satisfactory results. It is fully as strong and durable ns either sliver or gold —more easily kept clean, more natural to the touch of the tongue and lips, and it Is firmer and more serviceable in the month, in consequence of our being able to obtain a more perfect fit to the gum. This work is not so expensive as gold, buta little higher in price than silver. It will be warranted to give satisfac tion, or be exchaoged for gold or silver work as the patient may prefer. .
