CARD.
A 'PEW days since, I published an advertisement of my
Hamburg Pianos, in which an extract from a letter
from Prof. H. Rohbock, of this city, addressed tq Messrs.
Baumgarten & Heins, cf Hamburg, the manufacturers,
was inserted. This morning I observed in several of the
daily papers a “ Notics” signed by Prof. R , in which he
atatea that I was unauthorized to make use of It, and that
it was incorrectly stated and applied. ...
In reply—l presumed that if he had written the letter,
be, of course, meant what was therein contained, and con
sequently required no authority from him to make the
some public. As regard* the assertion as to Its incorrect
ness, I have the letter in my possession, and it speaks foi
itself, word for word os I have published. Messrs Baum
enuteu A Heins are not dependant upon Mr. Rohbock for
undo’ sement—their rianos were known, appreciated, and
received the. hlghust rommendations from the first artists,
long before Prof. R. saw fit to pass an opinion upon them.
My reason for publishing the extract was in the tact that
he was well known in ths city, and not be ause hi 9 recom
mendation was necessary to establish the merit of tbe
Pianos. In conclusion, I may add that they stand on their
own merit, and are Bndoraed by each men ns Lint, Tbnlberg,
and others, solely on account of their merit.

SHERWOOD FOREST,
AND TUE- SIOEY OP EOBIN HOOD.
CT GIUCE GCEXSTTOGD.
. .v —*r— [GmcludecL]
Of the thousand and one adventures re
latod of Bobin Hood, I have only room to this
short history for two; the first one Bhowinghow
be mado a friend—tho second how a
'One morning, near Sherwood Forest, Bobin
Hood mot. a young man walking slowly, drool
ing hie head and sighing deeply, and ho thought
to himself—"thls poor fellow must be melanoboly
mad or in love—in cither case he is to.be pitied.”
So ho htodly questioned the youth, who . proved
to bo a yoomau by the name of Will Soarlooke.
He trusted Bobin Hood from the’ first, and told
him that be was grieving because a fair maiden
whom he loved and who loved him; was that day
to bo married by her friends to a riob oldman,
whom.she detested. Bobin Ilood inquired the
time and place of the wedding, then telling
Will to keep a good heart, bounded off into the
forest.
About noon there was a great ringing of bells
at the cburoh—then came the wedding party
and their friends. Tho bridegroom looked very
proud and pompons to his - gold laoed, Velvet ■
doublet, and white silk hose fcbijt ho was wheezy,
and hard of bearing, and so gouty, that he had
a little page to lift his feet, ’first one and then
the other, np the altar steps. The bride wept
and looked wistfully round for her lover, who
was bid behind a pillar, waiting for Bobin Hood.
The ceremony began and Will was getting des
perate, wben a taltmanin the dress of ii beggar,
standing hear the altar, drew a eUver'.horn from
beneath his mantle, and blew a starring blast.
Instantly fifty men in lancoln green burst
the church and dispersed the bridal party—all
but the now happy .bride, abd the frightened
priest whom Bobin Hood commanded to marry
the faithful pair at once. : It was done; and
ever after Will Soarlooke was tho fast friend of
Bobin Hood. *
One day, to pursuing a deer, Bobin Hood was
led into the park of the Earl of Fifzwator.
There ho suddenly heard voices and the tramp
ling of horses, and.soon saw a tnail-olad knight
followed by six men’at-arms, and leading a pal
fry, on whioh sat a lovely lady, weeping and
wringing her hanija. This maiden Bobin Hood
recognized at once r as the young Lady Matilda,
only daughter of Eari of Filzwafer. . Though
qnite alone, be did not'hesitßte, bnt sprhng for
ward before the party, crying—“ Hold, tbon falao
knigbt! I command thee to lot that noble lady
go free." • ( .
’“Stand off, thou unmunn.erlyohurl, or I will
clpavo thy skull with my broadsword—know
tbon that lam John, thy prince!” : '
“And’know then,” replied the outlaw, “ that
I am Bobin Hood, king of Bhcrwqod Forest.”
At these-words all six of the men-at-arms pot
spurs to their horses and fled, and thsprince was
glad to follow, scowling and oursing as he went.
Then Lady Matilda, Who seems-to have been
rather a romantio young woman, fainted and
fell into Robin Hood’s arms; and he not knowing
exactly what to do for a lady in such a oaso,
carried her to a brook and was about to dip her
head into the water, when she suddenly came to
horself. Bhe then related to her preserver how
that bad prinoe, whom she hated with nil her
might, had long been urging her to go with him
to his wicked court; and how, that afternoon,
while walking in the park, he had surprised and
carried her off. She told this story, reclining
on a mossy bank, with Robin Hood sitting at her
feet, looking np in her face. At last 'the twi
light shadows began to fall, then ho sighed,
and said—“ It is getting late my lady—shall I
conduot you home?” But the lady Matilda bent
towards him, blushing and speaking very softly,
and said, “Ton have saved me from shame and
Borrow—henceforth Ijbelong to you.”
Robin Hood started up gladly, then sunk
back sadder tbaa before, and said, “No, lady,
no ; you have been too delicately reared for an
outlaw’s wife.” ?;: -
He then told her that though Bhe .might not
dislike his forest lifo in the warm summer time,
yet when tbe fall rains and winter fr.Oßt came,
she would And tbe cave in which be lived, dark
and chill, and Would sigh for her father’s oom
fortabla castle halls.
Rut -Lady Matilda Waß strong .and;, healthful
and had little fear of colds or rheujnatisms; she
thought Robin Hood handsome, aud fanoied he
would be the best protector against that naugh
ty prince she could have; so. she looked into his
face with her beautiful, blue, beOieching eyes,
till ho oonld resist her no longer; btit lifted her
upon her palfry, and walked' by : 'her side
toward Bherwood Forest, talking to her, holding
her hand, end loving, her better and better
[ every step. They were married at the oamp, by
jolly Friar Took, and had a merry wedding
feast. The next day Robin Hood and his wife,
who had taken the name of Marian, sent a mes
senger to tho Earl of Fitzwater, felling him
how they Were married, and asking him if he had
any objections. Ho sent baok Word that he
disowned his daughter, and never would forgive
her; and made some rather unhandsome remarks
upon the character of hia son-in-law, wbioh
roused Marian’s spirit. But the old Earl missed
his only child, and was so lonely in'his grand
castle, that, at last It seemed to him ho mnat
see her orhe should die. So he disguised him-
Belf as a mendicant minstrel, and went to Robin
Hood’acamp. He was kindly received and feaßt«
ed With good game and excellent Wine. After
dinner Robin Hood flung himself. down on a
bank of wild violets for a, nap, and Marian began
scattering daisies over him.
The Earl watched them in their, happiness,
and thought of his own loneliness till he oonld
stand it no longer, but bowed hia head In his
.hands and bnrst into tears. Marian knew that
sob—she had heard it once before, when her
mother died. Bbe dropped her flowers, ran to
her father, flung her armß round biff neck, and
wept with him. Robin Hood! sprang up and
joined with them—and all was made up between
the threo. Tho Earl, of Fitzwater beoame quits
fond of his son-in-law, though he'Often warned
him that he would come to the gallows if he did
not mend his ways. But Robin flood did not
mend i his ways for hotter or worse. He con
tinued to take from the rioh and give to tho
poor; to play tricks and seek adventures In dis
guise; to fight the troops of the king and the
sheriff of Nottingham; to bate and:make war on
all priests to tho laßt. He lived’to be an old
man, laved by tho poor, and feared and hated by
the rioh.
At length he fell 111 of a lingering fever, and
unlookily, went for help to his.aunt, Elizabeth
de Staynton, PfioreSß of 'Kirkless Nunnery, in
Yorkshire —a woman who had great skill in
medicine. His old enemy,Sir Rodger, of Doncas
ter, hearing of this, went to her, and telling her
she had in her power a great enemy of thechnroh,
urged her on to a dark and cruel’deed. The
Prioress went alone to Robin " Hood, as he lay
toßßing and gasping with his fever, land pretend
ing great kindness, Bald she must bjeed him. He
.stretched out his arm and. Bhe opened a large
vein. The blood Bpouted fiercely At first, and
ran for a long time full and fast. *t
“ Haven’t you taken enough ?” asked Robin
Hood, again and again, his voice growing weak
er and weaker. Bat the stern old-Woman always
answered, “No.” Then ho sunk'back on his
pillow and fainted, Still tho Priofcess stood and
looked on him with o_ cold, stony face—and still
he bled, and bled, till’the conch oir which he lay
was all afloat with bis blood. AtTist his white
lipe moved, and he murmured one word that
touched the cruol heart of the Prioress. It was
the name of his mother— her own titter. She
sprang forward to bind up tho arm and atop’ tho
Dleeding—but too late! Robin Hood was dead.
