"Where are vcu taking me to?"'! mquiret. d Armand; 'T am no male factor. "You will know fchorily ; th meanwhile be sueut. The carriage rattled ou its way for about twenty minutes, and then halt ed suddenly. De Bierges was re quested to" alight, and having d .:e so, he was conducted through a Lnc oramio ta a H.. p Vl liieh ntleflcd lUti- teriouslv. All Le could percei . e be yond was a dark vestibule, w!,:cn, as directed, be entered. S i-Jecly his arm was seized, and he was conduct-j ed up a wiuding staircase. "Where the devil am I?' question-' ed the young man, who was more surprised than pleased. ilu.-b:" whispered tlie same man, sternly. "Yonder you tec a light go towards it" "And you," inquired de Bierges. "are you not coming with me ?" "No; I will remain without, that I may not hear the conversation that will pass between yourself and the pcrson who awaits you." Armand, after a moment's thought, walked bravely towards the jight, and found himself ia an epartment lundshed with exquisite taste. No one was present, and at first he did not know what course to pursue, whether to seat himself or to remain standing; but as a comfortable chair stood invitingly near he sank into its soft depths, wondering what he had done to cause his arrest. lie had never conspired, bad not wronged any husband at least none that kue w it and his greatest error had per haps been in speaking lightly cf the Republic. In turning to assume a more comfortable position he saw a magnificently embroidered skirt close behind him; it lay upon the carpet, .and raising it he was about to place it on the sofa, when the door opened and a woman appeared, shading her eyes from the bright glare of the light she held. Her hair was brown, ond hung in loose waves upon her shoulders, which gleamed white and full beneath the transparent folds of her peignor, which was her only cov ering. She instantly recognize! the young min, and both having met constairt'v in society, the recognition was mutual. For an i.-istant she stood amnzril tirnl trciiiblinj-.

"What docs this mean the trembling woman. "Prince, where am I ? Armand.

What have you seen?" questioned the Princess. "Do you understand the meanjng of this? As for myself. I feel like the victim of a frightful dream." "Are you not here ia your own boudoir?" "Yes." "The door of vour own bed- ham Ixr open ? "True." "Again I question. Are you not in your night dress ? and is not this a singular costume in which to receive a visitor, I may say a ceremonious call, fortius gentleman is in ball at tire ?" "I do not deny the fact" "Nor can you deny that it is three o'clock in lhe morning; a strange jtime to receive a guest aa ordinary yi.'tvf." The lady shuddered with sudden fear. "I sm paving no visit to the Prin cess; I have not indeed, the honorf htr acquaintance," exclaimed de Bier ges. "Your ingenuity may, perhaps, suggest further civility of speech," replied the Piinx. with a sneer: "if yon do not know the lady, why, then, pray, are you in this house 7" ESTABLISHED, 1827.

"A kev ?" ruuruicred the young ; a3a 5a surprise, j Yes, monsieur, neither more nor ! i0;3 tj,aa the key of the secret door." j Armand was lost in wonder, and 'concluded to remain silent until able ; t0 eo;re the meaning cf this strange nivsterv If these peorde were not wcalthv I would think there was some snare a;j for me, end I would perhaps be fLrcej to sign a well-Ciled check," he thought. But under the circumstances such a solutioa was not possible. 'Madame," said the Prince, "my bu-iness i3 wita you. Since this cen 'ernari is beneath my roof be must :.;!e received some invitation from v .i!. Can you say aught in justifica tion t' yourself?" "In jt'.stiSca'ion ?" repeated the Princess i:i a tone of suppressed an.cer. 'Not s loud," resumed the Rus sian. "Vour voice was low in tone a moment ago when tete-a-tete with this gentleman." "Your word-? are an insult," repli ed the lady, and throwing a white cashmere cioak around her, she hid her blushing face ia its folds. "To hide your face gives no reply.', "Nor will I answer such words,', was the proud retort, as raisins: her fcp, her dark lustrous eyes flashed with indignation. "You are wrong, madame, for I acetis2 vou, and why ? Because I ar rived home unexpectedly, it is true, but I, nevertheless found you, my wife, entertaining this man. Oh, do not interrupt me. You have forgotten your duty; moreover have created a scandal in society, and my proud name has become a by-word for fools to sneer at. I am not deceived. I know of your infamous proceeding with this gentleman who is youv !o;'r.' Oh, do net blush at the word while willing to commit the crime. Yes. 1 know all that you have done, and all possible doubts are removed br witnessing this renth'zrou.i." "A rcrtJrzeoun .'" exclaimed Ar mand indignantly. "It is utterly false." "I have ceased to address you monsieur, retmed tbe i nuee in a tone of arrosrance. "As to mvself, I will beg that the rrentleman does not seek to defend me. for we are strangers,never having spoken until to-night," said the Prin cess, gently, her eyes turned toward Armand in mute expression of thanks in her defence. "so you request Lim not to dciend you." "I command him," was the proud answer. "You have never sp. ken To him un til now?" "Never. As to his presence here, his arrest, the key in his posses.-i;n, I neither know or can explain the mean-in:.'-. I;i h'-u veil's name I swear that it is ad a mystery to me. Again I ueny ail Knowledge. "And I say it is absurd. Moreover, I tell you that you have each evening met this man iu public, at balls or places of amusement Such meetings as compared with this were harmless, innocent ia the extreme, but that whleu may have been friendship be tween you has culminated ialove." "Prince, I swear to you that you are mistaken," exclaimed de Bierges. "I had almost forgotten your pres ence, monsieur," was the cold rejoin der. "I do not know whether you have or have not forgotten my presence," continued Armand! "but this I do know, my patience is exhausted ; I am heartily tired cf the miserable role you are playiug, and the stupid part you have assigned me. What do you propose doing? Will you meet me to-morrow on ueutral ground. where we can arrange this matter "Xo." "Ab, then you prefer your own domicile. In that ease there are-but two issues. Send for a commissioner of police, or throw me out of the win dow, if ioa can. Rather than com promise the lady I would jump ejen though hell itself yawned beneath ; but that course, I perceive, does not suit you. Russian as you are, you prefer to avail yourself of the French law, and kill a maa you are pleased to consider fa the light of the lover of your wife. Well, I will not seek to defend myself. If a man's death is necessary to enable vou to utterly destroy your wife's reputation for I clearly sue it is your determination that it shall be destroyed I can serve your exalted purpose. Draw your pistol and put on the finishing touch to your bravery." Madame la Princess Novratzin list IT eced ia silence, deeply impressed by the dignity and devotion of the stran ger whose sincerity was beyond a doubt, and she quickly advanced t ward4 her husband with extended hands, r.nd a look of earnest plead ing beamed from her expressive eye. Repulsing her, Novratzin turnes towards Armand. "I only came, monsieur, to con vince this lady." he said, "and now she is convinced." "Of what," questioned de Bierges. "You are in love with Armand de Bierges" madame," he continued, not heeding the young man. "I can prove my word by this." As he spoke he drew from his pocket a piece of ivory a haughty sneer curling his lips. "Do you recognize this painting?" he added. The l'rincesa trembled and clasped her hands in agony. "What is it?" exclaimed Armand. " No mystery," responded the Frince, "simply your portrait painted by madam, and which 90 closely re sembles you that it is utterly impos sible it should have not been painted from nature, and far too perfect not to have been accorded many sit tings Pale and motionless the lady stood as though turned to stone. "There is some magic ia all this," said de Bierges. "The magic of love," interrupted the Priia. e. "I have finished; there will be do duel, no assassination. You are at liberty, and still retain the key of the secret door. As to yon, madame," he continued, "we will have no scandal, but you are also free. " No one will see me come, no one will see me depart. Moreover, I will remain silent unless you wrong me again, yet, I repeat, we are both free. Adieu, forever." With these words, Prince Novratzin retired. "Is it possible you still remain : ' aid the Princess, raising her head prouaiy. I am going, madam, responded Armand. Yes but not before I am utterly lost," sobbed the unhappy woman. "Do not accuse me, madam. 1 am guiltless of ail wrong toward you. "Are you not here ?" she inquired quickly. "That fact 1 do not dispute, out as I have already stated, I could not avoid coming, I was brought to this house." "Do not add to your wrong, mon sieur, by the baseness of a falsehood," replied the lady, haughtily. "Can it be possible you don't be lieve me? How cau I convince you? I assure you on my honor as a gen tleman, I did not know until to-night that Your hotel has two entrances." "And that key ?" "Some one must have placed it in my pocket" ""If I credit your words I am forc ed to believe in the existence of some plot against me, but why were you chosen ?" "I am utterlv unable to explain. being &3 surprised as yourself; but admitting that mv arrest and all T have said, be a mere fabrication, you cannot, at all events, attribute the portrait to me." "True,"' responded the Princess, "but to that vou must not attach un due importance. I will not deceive you, I did paint the picture from rec collection. I'o not atk me further to explain, as from this night we must he utrano-ers. We can never meet a fain " "Never ?" repeated Armand. "Xeverl" was the low response. "This interview must end at once continued the lady, "and it has in deed lasted longer than modesty can endure, as you see you have surpris ed me ia a" garb which ill becomes a woman ia the presence of a man not her husband." De Bierges arose, intending to obey, and ia his embarrassment advanced towards the Grst door that attracted his attention. "Monsieur," exclaimed the Prin cess, "that is my bed chamber." "Pardon my mistake, madam, rnd in truth, permit me to say, that I don't know which way to go," re plied Armand, with a shade of annoy ance. Taking the lamp from the stand the ladv crossed the boudoir rapidly. "Come," she said, "I will light the way." As thev entered the hall the wind blew the light cloak from her shoul- ders.and through the transparent folds of her thin drapery. Armaad saw the gieara of her white and exquisitely moulded bust and shoulders. Iu an other instant the liht was extin guished, and they stood together in the darkness. "Alas madam, I know not wberei r run " u-hisnpred Armand. clasping the unresisting hand within h:s own. "The stairs are near you. she mur mured iu a low voice. "Come and quickly." Leading him she wended her way down the long flight "The door is just before you," said she on reaching the foot of the staircase. "Go." "Yes, but how shall I open it?" "You have the key." "True, bat I should not retain it" "When once out throw it on the balcony," replied the Princess impa ;ient!y. He caught the intonation of her voice and hurried out Oa his return home de Bierges vaialy endeavored to explain his sin gular adventure. The jealousy and anger of the Trince appeared under the circum stances but natural, but the sudden lull of the tempest was difficult to comprehend, and he retired towards morning well persuaded that not many hours would elapse before he would again hear from the Princess Xovralzin. The next day and agwin the next passed, but no news reached him: On the third the first paragragh which caught his eye ia the Figaro was as follows: "All Paris will be surprised to learn that the Prince Novratzin has eloped with the charming and the celebrated danseose Zannetta, the pctil amour of the theatre Ambigue. Novratzin leaves a young and beautiful wife, who deserves to be consoled." Further on was the announcement that the Princess Novratzin had ap plied for a divorce.

Still such was the case with the German army, especial ly during the French campaign of 1ST0. The practice was, almost in variably, when halting near water, to st-.qi ail access to it by a guard, for it was taken for granted that if the sol diers were allowed to drink they would chill themselves.
