THE SABBETH BELL
AT ELIZA COOS.
Peal on ! peal on—l love to hear
The old church dtng•dong soft and clear!
The VCr!Ot 111 C sounds are doubly blest
With future hope an 3 earthly rest,
Yet were no lulling changes found
T. spread their cheering echoes round.
There a not a place where man may dwell
But he can hear a Sabbath bell.
Co to the wood's, when winter's song.
Howls liken famished wolf along,
Or when the south winds.searcely torn
The light leaves of the tmnbling fern--
Although na cloister chimes ring there,
The heart is called to faith and-prayer
fcr all rreation'e vutcea tell
The tidings of the Sabbath bell.
Go to the billows, let them pour
In gentle balm or headlong roar ;
Let the vast ocean be thy home,
Thou'lt hod a God upon the foam
In rippling swell or stormy roll,
The crystal wares shall wake thy soul.
And thou shalt feel the hallowed spell,
That a thrown around the Sabbath bell.
The lark upon his skyward way,
The robin on the hedge-row sprn,
The bee within the wild•thyme% bloom,
t The on I amid the cypress gloom,
All sing,-in every varied tone,
A vesper to the great Unknown ;
A t•ove—bc:ow--one chorus stres
Of unnumbereJ Sabbath

where, and ordered his own to be served up in an
adjoining apartment. But just as he was about ad
jourting to it, the three expected guests entered the
public room. These were an old lady and her niece,
and a gentleman about Bitty years of age. The
hostess, who was telling them what had just occurr
ed, stopped short at sight of Joseph, who bowed,
and was withdrawing, when the gentleman detain
ed him. "I am grieved, sir," said he; nrbanely,

Joseph would have refused, declaring himself in
no way offended by a precaution whickt, he found
quite :latent ; but. Mr. Rosman (it was thus the
two lathes called their companion) pressed his in
vitation in so cordial and friendly a n.anner, that he

and heaved a sight.

" Tired indeed 1:: replied the old woman ; "as

the matter ; the Marseilles, whose humor bad been
by no means mended by his bad dinner, persisted
in his resolution.
" To every: one his right," cried he, "that is my
motto ; yours is charity. .Be as charitable as you

The traveller whose place he filled, objected his

was a sharp interchange of violent explanations,
recriminations, pnd menaces. Miss Cherlotte, who
had heard every thing from her place in the coupe,
groaned and sighed her alarm, and recommenced

by the parties concerned, and the diligence set ofE
It was in the month of November; the air, damp
and chilly at the moment of departure, grew colder
still is - night approached. Henry Fonin, accustom
ed to the sun of-Provence, was anything but com
fortable in his exposed place upon the top of the
diligence. In vain did he betton his great coat to
the 'Very chin ; he shivered like a leaf in the frigid
evening fog. His sips were blue, his teeth chatter
ed I Soon a small ioy rain, driven full in his lace
by the wand, penetrated his clothes. His neighbor
protected by on ample blanket cloak, might easily
have spared him a portion of it. and been no worse
off himself; but the neighbor was a corpulent
shopkeeper, very tender of his own person ;and ex
tremely careless of the comfort of others. When
Fortinlefused to give op the place of which he
had taken possession, the fat man applauded, de
claring that " every one travelled for his own ac
count and should look after his even interests;"
principles which the young man then found per
fectly reasonable, and from whose application he
now suffered. About the middle of the journey
he stout traveller put his head out of his cloak,
looked at his neighbor, and said—
" You seem very cold, sir I"
" I am wet to the skin," replied Fortin, who
ecold hardly speak.
The tat man shook himself is his huge wrapper,
as if enjoying the warmth and dryness it secured
btm.
=I
" h is very bad for the health to get wet," said
he philot-ophically. Cher time I advise you
to bring a cloak like ine :it is very warm and not
dear.'
Having a; cen this sensible advice, he withdrew
his comfortable countenance within his snug gar
ment, and relapsed into a luxurious doze.
It was long after nightfall when the diligence ar
rived at Kayserberg. Half dead with cold, Fortin
scrambled down from the rdot, and sought refuge
in the inn kitchen, where a large fire blazed. On
entering, he found a group of travellers already as
sembled round the cheerful hearth, and amongst
thtm, to his surprise, were his cousin and the trav
eller whorls he had deprived of his place. Theca
lxiolet had taken them by a cross road, which was
a short cut, and they had been an hour at the inn.
On remarking his cassia's deplorable plight,
Mufsen at once gave op his chair to him . ; as for
the traveller whom Fortin had dispossessed at
Cernary, he could not restrain a hearty lamb.
"Upon my word," he cried, r I must thank this
gentleman for having driven me from the imperial
of the dilligence: for, had he not done so, I should
now be wet and ball frozen as he is, instead of be.
ing worm and comfortable as I am-"
Fortin's position was altogether too bad to admit
of a retort ; he sal down before the fire, and tried
to warm himself. •
As soon as he was alittle revived, he asked for
a room and a bed , but the Kaysertuarg fair was
nutty jest over, and the inn was tall of persons who
were to leave mutt mailing. Joseph and bin cam

Fortin - lad Wizen bawed, and returned their
thanks for this hospitable iaveation—but in very
different tones. 'that of MulzFA was grateful and
joyous ; thPt of his companion constrained, although
polite. Henry had not yet forgotten that Mr. Ros
man was the primers cause of the meagrehess of
his dinner at (emay.
" YOu are too obliging, sir," said he, softening
his voice ; " but I would not on any account occa
sion yod so much rouble. 11 is well, besides, to
give a lesson to these people, and to teach .theca to
respect the rights of travellers." .
Having thus spoken, he
,again bowed, and be
took himself to the apartment occupied by the ped
lars. Mulnn fearing a quarrel, followed him ; but

about the matter; or that they were daunted. by the
Provenears resolute mien, they contented them
selves with a little grumbling, in spite of which
Henry installed himself in the fifth bed. His, cou

so obliging as to wait for h:m.
Miss Charlotte and her niece Louisa were pre
paring the testable before a crackling fire of fir
cones. Mulzen's guide spoke • few words in a
low voice to the two ladigs , who'received the young
man with courteous kindness- They made him Sit

end beard the rattle of the wheels in the singing of
the kettles. She did not forget, however, to in
quire what had become of her young man who had
carried the imperial of the diligence by assault at
Cemay, and Mr. Rosman related what had just oc
coned at the inn.
" Bless me," cried Miss Charlotte, " be passes-
penhis life in search of quarrels and litigation !
He We man to be avoided like a pestilence."
" It is impossible to have a better heart or more
upright character," replied Matzen ; " but he
makes a point of acting up to his motto : To eve
ry one his right !"
" Whereas your motto is Charity," rejoined the
old lady with a smile. "Oh ! I overheard all tha t
pasted at Cemay."
" You travel together !" inquired Mr. Rosman.
" We are cousins," replied Matzen, " and we
have come to Kaysersberg to be present at the
opening 01 a ottl, which takes place to-morrow."
" A will !" repealed Miss Chazioce, in a tone of
surprise
't The will at our onee, Doctor Hamer."
The two ladies and Mr. Rosman looked at each
other.
" dh ! pm are the d. - ..ctor's relatives !" said Mr.
Rosman, gazing at the young man with a certain
degree of interest. Chance could hardly have di
rected yen better, sir, for I was his oldest and most
intimate friend."
This son of mutual recognition led the conver
sation 110 the subject o f the deceased doctor. Mul
zen had never seen him, but he felt for him that
son of respectful regard which instinct establishes
between, members of the same family. He talked
a long time of the doctor; listened with great in
terest to details of his lite and of his last moments ;
and at last after one of these intimate conversations
in which heart anti mind throw off disguise, and
display themselves as they really are, he retired to
bed, delighted with his hosts, who, on their par
were equally pleased with him.
Tired with his journey, it was late when he
awoke next morning. He hastened to dress him
self, in order to seek his cousin, whom he was to
accompany to the notary with whom the will was
deposited. But, on griing down into the breakfast
room he found the notary there, with Mr. Rosman
and with Fortin, for whom a messenger had been
sent Miss Charlotte and Louisa soon appeared.
Wien all were assembled, Mr. Rosman turned to
the two young men and said, with a smile:
" All here present are inteiested in the matter
which brings you here to Kysersbenz, gentlemen :
fur my sister-in-law, Miss Char loge Revel, and my
neice, Miss Louisa Armand, whose guardian I am,
have come hither, like yourselves, to witness the
opening ci the will of their brother and uncle, Dr.
Hamer.
The two yur.ng men bowed to 3liss Charlote
and Miss Logi:tilt, Who reamed their salutation.
"Since accident has broeght usether all the par

as well as at the notarfsoffiee."
Forrin made a sign of assegai_ Everyboly 1 , 3 t
down, and the , notary was shush to break the seal 01
the will whin he checked himself.
" This will," sai d he, " is - of old Jam, and, dat

" For my part," said Sliss Charlotte, " I matte
no objections whatever." i;

" I give my consent." -

" Then," said , the notary, taming to Henry,
"there is only this gentleman:"
Like my cousin," he at last said, "I batten°
•
ground to expect that the will favors; me, but that is ,
the very reason , why I should_ be guarded in my,
decision. Whatever may have, been die duptcte!S,
intentional, his will alone can n ow_ constdered to
express them ; to neutralize beforehand his team
mentary dispositions, is to infringe both on , the
iigh Is of the will, and on those of the nr.known
legatee."
" l a et na spay,no mom about,it,'•
~intertgpte4 the
notary. " Prompt ant perfect unanimity could'
alone make legitimate my proposition. Let us re
main in the strict limits of legal rights—as you, sir,
purpose; and now please to Itsten.
With thesli words he tore open the envelope,
criiened the will, and read as follows
" Ot the four persons who can lay claim to my
inheri•ance, I know hat two :—my sister Charlotte
Reed, and my niece, Louisa Armand. But these
, two, tong united by the strictest affection, have but
one common interest, and may, be considered
tact, to coostitute but one person ; with respect to
them, thetefore, I have only Louisa to consider.—
My first intention was to bequeath to her all I
possess, but it afterwards occurred to me that one
of my twonephews might be equally worthy of my
regard. The sole difficulty is to find oat which of
the two it is.
Unable to incesti,gate this point myself, and
well knowing the intelligence and right minded
ness of my niece, Louisa, I. refer to her indg,ment ;
and I constitute my sole heir that one of the two
cousins whom she shall select for her husband.
When the' notary paused, after completing the
perusal of the will of the eccentric but well-mean
ing doctor, a silence of some duration ensued
The two young men looked embarrassed, and
Loursa held down her heal.
" Mon Dien !" cried Miss Charlotte at last, "the
doctor has bequeathed a very difficult tat to my
niece."
4 4 Less difficult than you think, sister," said Ros
man, smiling. " I have long been well acquainted
with the contents of Haner's will, and I made in
quiries in consequence. The result of those inqui
ries couvinced me that, whatever her choice, there
was nothing to tear for Louisa."
" Then let Miss Armand decide "said the note
ry, laughing. " Since there issalety in either case,
she has bur consult her inspirations."
11 I will beg my aunt to decide for me," murm
ured the young girl, throwing herself into Miss
Charloue's Arms.
" I decide," cied the old lady ;--" it is very
perplexing, my dear, and really I do riot know."
But, whilst uttering these words with an air of in
decision, Miss Charlotte's first g i .an= was at Mul
zen. Fortin perceived this.
Ah, Midam, cried he quickly, " I see that
your choice is made, and whatever my regrets, I
cannot bat approve it Mademoiselle," he contin
ued, taking Mtezen's hand and leading him to Lou
