Anthony Martel W 115,4, as brave a young soldier as ever bore arms on the battlefield. lle was an almost universal favorite in his regiment. He loved his country and a maiden named Cadeline, who was consid ered the prettiest girl in Viselle, and many were the hearts that beat with love'and joy when the fhir Cadeline turned her beauti ful eyes upon them, and returned their sal utations with a winning smile. There, Was not a brave soldier in the whole regirbent but would have been proud to have shed his last drop of blood to resent an insult to the bright star of Viselle. Many were they who worshipped at her shrine, but only one received any return to his passion, and he was the gallant Anthony Martel. The colonel of the regiment tl, which he belonged was a man of violent passion, in solent and overbearing, in the extreme to his subordinates, and was as universally de tested as Martel was beloved. On several occasions lie had made infa mous proposals to Cadeline which she had resented with scorn, but still he became more importunate, until finding himself baffled in all his endeavors, he determined to adopt a new mode of procedure, hoping to be more successful in his designs. .Ac cordingly he called on Cadeline one even ing when she was alone, and made an apol ogy lbr his former rudeness, and asked her I orgiveness, which she readily granted, pre suming that he would trouble her no furth er; but in this she was disappointed, for he immediately made new overtures of love to her, promising if she would listen to his suit, lie would load her with presents, and also make. her his lawful bride. But all these flattering inducements had no effect upon her, fbr she was true to first love. " Consider, Cadeline," said ho, "iny rank and station, and that your position would be . higher than the proudest lady in the vil ti lage ; besides, you shall have attendants, and all the luxury and refinement that wbalth can furnish." " M, Colonel Lavilier, what would these splendid B:Cts be without the heart ?" said Cadeline. You w ( l l , o i h i l l c o n n soonel, Ll why arn to love me." - , :tu never love but one." not lot,p u ir " Because I already love ' - kNather," re turned Cadeline: " Indeed, my fair ehariner," said the ~0 1 . onel ironically,; a may I be perMitted I, k ask the name of the cherished : gallant?" " Anthony Martel," was the iunocen reply. " What ! a common soldier—a miserable hireling for a rival 7 By Heaven !" he L_lcininicd, in a terrible passion, " unless you instantly accept my suit and reject' the the beggarly churl, I will have him shot like a dog for his audacious presumption, and I will give you but a moment to decide. his fate." Oh, sir !" exclaimed Cadeline, " he is guilty of no crime—he has never injured you.,, " Has he nut dared to supplant a eolone or the French army, and he only a commoi soldier ?" "Nay, Colonel Lavilier —I loved him ere I saw you. He is generous, noble, and would not injure any one." "Do not lose time in idle words; consent to be mine, or ere the morning sun has risen an hour in the . Heavens, his heart shall have ceased to beat," "Oh, heavens ! spare him !" cried Cade line in anguish. You plead in vain.' " Give me but a single day to decide." "Not an hour." At this moment a majestic form cast a slight shadow in the doorway, but it was, not observed by either of the persons with in the room, so deeply absorbed • were they in their own affairs. Stepping aside so as not to be unseen, the Stranger remained a' silent spectator : of all that'passed. • "I implore you to let me sp_eaiato Any thony before 1 give you a final 'answer." " Not a word to him ;• therefore, instant.. ly give nie your consent to become. my bride, or you sign the death warrant of Martel." Inhuman monster ! I would rather die a thousand deaths than be your wife—even mi t re you the proud Emperor of France. = Anthony fears not death,.and would rathdr give his life than have me prove false to him." " Mad girl, youard in my ponder, 'and will use you as"l please since You have so insultingly spoken." "Never 'I" "Do you dare defy me to my face ? Thus, then let me prove my words by snatching a breath of the sweet Augrance of your scornful lips." And clasping his arms around the fair form of Cadoline, Col. Lavilier endeavored to put his threat into execution. " Help ! mercy ! help !" exclaimed she. At this moment a report of a pistol, in the hands of the stranger whom we before mentioned, was heard, and the bullet shat- tered the arm of the aggressor, rendering him powerless, but from whence the shot came both were unable to tell, for no sooner was the weapon discharged than the deliv erer disdppeared and Anthony Martel rush ed into the room by another door. Observ ing the wild appearance of Cadeline, break ing from the arms of the colonel, in an in stunt ho divided the whole, and with a pow erful blow ho laid the base insulter at his feet.' By this time the report of fire arms had-brought a detachment of soldiers - to the spot,'who, on entering, were immediately commanded to arrest Anthony for attempt; ing to murder his superior office. In vain Cadeline protested his innocence; they dragged him away and confined him under a strong guard. I. N. GREGORY. -ly On the following morning an unusual se- tivity among the officers told that something monistban ordinary importande was to take place, as each one hastened to the quarters of the commander. Although a court mar tial is not a very unusual affair, yet.' it is sufficiently rare to attract great attention in a camp. ANTHONY MARTEL BY WM. It. lIAMEN Soon the quick roll of the drain . told that, the court had convened, and wore ready to try a criminal. Within a spacious tent were gathered a large number of officers in full uniform. Seated on a raised platform was Gen. Levack, acting as judge. Another roll of the drum announced the entrance of the prisoner. " Of what is the man charged ?" asked the judge. " With an attempt to destroy the` ife of his superior officer, Col. Lavilier," said the advocate. " Where is the accuser ?" continued the court. " Here, may it please your excellency," replkd the colonel ; whose arm was bound up with a sling. " How came Martel to attempt your life?" "I know not," said Lavilier. " What provoked the insult?" " A conversation with a young girl with whom the prisoner is acquainted." "Is that all?" "It is, your excellency." After a short consultation with the other officers, the Judge turned to the prisoner and thus addressed him— , " Anthony Martel, yon have been found guilty of an attempt to murder a superior officer in the French army, the, punishment of which crime is death. 'W hat have you to say why you should not suffer the extreme penalty of the law which you have offend ed ?" Martel who stood though as unconscious until now raised his manly form—standing erect, he bent his searching eyes upon the colonel and said in a firm voice— " Your excellency-1 am aware that any vindication which I may make would be of no avail, but being • thus permitted, I will speak the truth, that my fellow soldiers may know that I die innocent of .the charge which has been brought against me. I did not lire upon Col. Lavilier; and had no weapon when arrested. At the moment I entered the dwelling of Cadeline, I found her struggling in his arms. I stopped not to - inquire his rank, but struck him with my clenched fist to the floor. This is all I•have done, and had it been the Emperor himself in his:own palace, I would have done like wise, for the duty of a true soldier is to pro tect .the innocent and defenseless. lam willing to die, but my death will not' bo unavenged, for the grass will not have coy ered my grave before the weapons of my comrades shall have fbund the heart of my murderer, for there is not one who will shrink when the hour 'comes, lam ready —pass your sentence." "Martel, year language does not be come a man n•ho is on the threshold of eter nity." " Truth becomes a man at all times," re 'lied Anthony. olouel Lavilier, during the time the Prn . lier was speaking, seemed greatly ex turned pale, for ho knew that Mar. tel was n.reat favorite in the regiment, and he 1%. at his own life was -in danger. AntZiouj- Martel," said the judge, "the sentence 0" the court is, that you ie to morrow inor..i n o• at sunrise, and that you be shot by twelve' o f your comrades.' Again therroll . - )f the drum told that the case had been decikd and they were about to conduct the prisoner to his quarters, wirm a young girl rushed past the guards into the tent, and prostrating hersi.lf at the feet of the presiding officer exclaint‘,l— lle is innocent ! spare hii. ; he is not guilty, and did not shoot Col. Lawilier." As the tears flowed down her &eautiful face, every heart was touched wit,`l,, pity save one. He stood umnoved by her I;up plications. The judge informed her. that it was impossible for him to alter the seri tence of the court, and that the only hope that was left her was with Col. Lavilier, who was the injured party and who alone had. power to ask for his pardon or to recore-' mend him to Mercy. In vain Cadelino pleaded- with him—he was inexorable, and she was born senseless from the tent. • On the following morning, a little before, sunrise, some soldiers were busily engaged in:placing red flaps at short intervals on a beautiful plain not . far from ,the camp. No ; sooner had this been accoMpliihed, than the !unified drum and the .band playing a dead march were heard. A company of soldiers drew near, accompanied by„a large waiter of officers, who came to witness the punish ment of (learn, „Anthony Martel, was walk ing with a arm step to meet his doom" ar riving on the ground he took his :plea°, en the spot designated for lift to die ; he Was calm and unmoved at the-approaching crisis.

The soldiers brought their pjeceri. to their shoulders, but stopped suddenly as the fran tic Cadeline rushed into the arms of her lover "Oh Anthony, Anthony, you musti,not die.. • Colonel Leviller will have .taery'; he cannot he so cruel as to murder yaq."
