TBE OPAL BRACELET
MEM=
I have never known who I am, nor whence
I came. My first remembratieels of a long
wearisome, stormy sea. voyage. during which
I suffered much from illness and neglect, and
cried ninny hours in my berth alone, for some
one whom I loved to emote to me. Who this
person was, or .whether there was more than
one, I have long s , ner forgotten, and I think,
even then, my memories of them were very
indistinct ; anti, after all, my desires might
have been more a child's passionate longing
for love and rare, than the presence of any in
dividual.
I was even then with the vary person
111 . adame Marie and her 11110mnd—tinder whose
charge I grew up to womanhood. They never
claimed to be my parents, or to bear any other
relationship of kindred blood to me. They
lavished money on me, and 'gave me priceless
Jewels which they said belonvd to my hum-
Having these things, as a matter of course,
I naturally set little value upon them. Among
my jewels was only one Which awakened
either pride or merest in me, and that was a
bracelet, or rathei• armlet of some barbaric
fashion, a heavy circlet of yellow gold, out of
which gleamed nn opal of the largest size,and
rarest lustre
lquestion if another stone like this exists,
and I feel almwd sore that scarcely, save In
that wit RI land of mystery, the East, another
with such magic powers as mins.
From my youth I loved to watch the chang
ing tints of my opal, and above all had been
awed and charmed bY tt on one or two rare
occasions when it assumed the appearance I
am ahnut to desclibc. It was in questioning
Madame Marie in relation to this that I heard
:rom tier lips the first and only allusion to my
parents that ever passed them.
I was amusing myself, one day in my room,
as was my wont, by ,drcorating my person in
gorgeous robes and. jewels. Madame Marie
had a collection of costumes of all manner of
strange peoples, to which she sometimes al
lowed me access, a 3 a means of diversion. I
stinght those, told dressed myself in the yellow
satin robes and flowing trousers of a Turkish
Sultana. To complete the dress, I sought the
opal bracelet. which was quite large enough
to clasp toy arts near theshoulder, just where
the wide sleeve fell (tack ward with graceful
sweep,
As I liked it from its casket I saw that a
marvelous change hail passed over the gent.
Its pale, translucent gleam, green, tinged with
violet, had quite fluted away. A dull gray
shadow 1.. v upon its sitter surface, while deep
down in its very c.•ntre glowed tin eye. As
distinctly its I behold site the blue opts of nty
little tint' playing beside me, I saw the lurid
orb shoot forth gh. ants of wrath, anti horror,
as it seemed to my excited imagina
tion, with ferocious hate.
As I looked, the expression changed, wrath'
and terror faded away, and in their place
came an expression of such fiendish, such ma•
lignant triumph as I have never seen, nor
hope to Sig!, in any human eye. Terror strick
en, I screamed aloud, and Madame Marie,
who nos sitting iu the next room, hurried in,
raow,d by her hu•band. and a little old stun
whom they called Zophar.
I had thrown thiwit the bracelet, and i•:. my
gorgeous rubes tilts cowerin 7 in a corner
among the cushions which I had arranged for
the Sultana's couch.
W hat is the matter, Ann ?" asked Madame
Mari.., a I vane;ug towards me.
1 pointed to the bracelet, but put up Loth
my hands warningly, lest she should bring it
tp me. She snatched it from the ground, and
turned to her husband, while Old Zopher fell
into an ntlitude, * exclaiming in his broken and
mixed dialet :
=MI
" Quelle pose ! Vat cent (trite° of de expres
sion V rc is my papier ? Vero is non pin can?
Allons ! Quoi done ! I go to snake my little
prineesse vat you call immortelle !"
Ilk. rushed from the room, and I heard. Ma
dame )(aria sny to her Imbhaml :
"TLhre is nothing hero, hill Rile 1111 Q SCVII.IIIe
eye," and he with a loud laugh, anti a sneer
directed at me, turned away. ,
You are tic' to he frightellotl,
.Madame l‘litria then sahl, turning to tae.
"The thing can't hurt you, and it's a sort of
talisman, I believe, or something of the sort.
It auy rate your mother charged mu never
to allow you to part from it, and she showed
otter the eye in the opal that always warns
one of your race (,r danger, or change to any
other member of the race. or to one who is
beloved. I tell you now, since you have found
out the secret, that you are never to part with
the gem, though, of course, if you please you
m ty lock it inYts casket, and not look upon it
again for years."
" But, Madame Mark,. tell no, yon have
never told' me what is my race ? who 1,4 lay
motile r ? what, and who am I ?"
"Child bo quirt! How often !vivo I told
you that yon are not to know morn than tl at
you Ii long to us? De qui. I, or I shall regret
that, to drive away your rears, I have told you
so much.,•
OEM
She turned from me and left me to struggle
alone Nkitil the bewildering vague memoyies,
and the wild longings of my childish hear , .
My mother ! Who or where was she'? What
a mother's love; what a child's lump
nes,: ?
Lovingly, almost reverently, I took up the
opt!. It %% as the only bond that united my
barren, dissevereul life with that of my un
known mother. The lurid eye had disappear
ed, the gray warning tint was gone. It
beamed upon mu., pen-l
-like In its fathomless,
transclucent light. as I pressed it wildly to niy
lip , and heart. I drew the bracelet upon my
arm, and from that hour I did not lay it aside
for many long months. 1 watched the opal
day and night. My health, life, comfort canal
to hang upon its. changes. If It grew dull, I
pitted and faded. If the eye gleamed forth in
terror, hate or wattling, I shrank and moaned
as one in pain, and seemed to feel, in my own
person, whatever danger, pain or injttry the
unknown member of my unknown race sus
tained.
:Madame Marie saw this, and vainly strove
to remove it from toy sight. For tong I re
sisted, until she stole it trim "me in my sleep,
and licking in its casket, mid hid the key
aiming her own effects.
I pined for the opal a few days, but Madame
'Marie was coldly obdurate; soon healthier
interests absorbed my mina, and I began to
recover the strength I had lost.
. About this period we removed to a busy
city street. Our lile changed somewhat. I
smnetimes went out with Madame Marie,
closely veiled, and saw the brilliant shops,
and various harmless sights of the city, and I
sat by toy window, and saw the busy, surging
life that Il twed through our noisy street.
New thoughts, strange ideas began to quicken
in My brain. My Intel, ct received a power
fit' stimulus, end the opal and its mysterious
changes were forgotten. And meanwhile,
with My whole soul going out through toy
eyes, I knew not that I was myself seen.
flubert looking from his opposite window,
saw me as I gazed ; my quaint and gorgeous
dress attracted his regards, and my childish
curiosity and interest In the veriest common•
place of life, and then he noticed my unusual
foreign form 'of feature, and , the complexion,
with Its rich, warm tints, so different. from
that of American girls. Curitisity deepened
into interest, and I think he loved me long
before that night when he saved me film that
fearful man who, eluding Monsieur Henri's
vigilance, sought my chamber, and would
have borne me away, I know not where. No
matter how, at this present writing, but he
rescued no% and restored me to my guardians'
car.., rt et, . tors kiwi , st act, only a

footsteps, soil would hay• slaid him. But
out IIP11111:4 of My '4lllloler a ery of pain
and terror awoke me. 'I he opal gleamed
near me In the gaslight —I raised It, and saw
the warning eye in its depths—knew the b--

from my couch, rushed forth to save hint In
stinctively I sought end found him. The as
sassin stood with poised weapon above Win
when I glided between. My cry of terror
awoke the sleeper, and he was saved.
* * * * * * *

I only consult it now when llubert leaves
me on those short absences that business
sometimes makes necessary. It pales and
brightens as he is sad or happy, but the warn
ing eye has but once told me of danger. And
then, in God's good providence, he escaped
unhurt.
IM:1
Monsieur Henri and Madame Marie disap
peared Irons the city when Lhecame Hubert's
wife, after one vain effort to recover the cus
tody of my person. With them disappeared
possibility of developing the mystery that has
encircled all my life. But it became known
that they were the acknowledged leaders of a
band of desperadires, and Hubert always be
lieves that they were employed, perhaps by
some of the mighty ones of earth, to sealed°
me forever from all knowledge of a station
that might have been so exalted as to tempt
sense weak mortal to the feakful crime of rid
ding himself thus of the only obstacle to pow
er, or place, or riches. I know not, and I
have long since ceased to care, content in my
happy lot of wife and mother—best, holiest,
happiest of all.
GEORUE SAND'S NOVELS.
MAUPRAT, MoNSIETIIt SYLVEBTIM,
THE SNOW MAN, THE MILLER OF ANGI
IIA ULT.
The following criticism was written by
Miss Preston, ate author of "Aspendale,"
for the New York World, in which paper it
appeared:
The "Miller of Angiblult" makes the fifth
volume in Messrs. Roberts Brothers' series of
Georg , : Sand's novels—one of the most inter•
eating., and, on the whole, one of the most
tudable literary adventures of the year. In a
generation when Women write so much, and
so much, unhappily, that is futile and forlorn,
it is altogether desirable that we should have
beside us, In convenient form, the best com
positionsof the most vigorous and richly-gifted
oman of the age. And since her language
is not ours, and her incomparable best is
mingled with much that is too daring to be
otherwise then doubtful in its effect upon the
ordinary reader, the work of judicious selec
tion and competent trtnslation becomes all
the more, from a literary p a int of view, a
work both of necessity and mercy.
In the case of these five volumes the selec
tion has been good—perhaps the best possible
—for one so limited, and the translations ad
mirable. In the latter, however, there are
degrees of excellence; Miss Vaughan's being
the best, soil the delightful "Snow Man"—
as perhaps it should be—decidedly the best,
of hers. Mr. Shaw translates with freedom,
giving us the speculations of Pierre and Mon
sieur Sylvestre i n a style whice, though pure
and forcible, is'related but remotely to that
of George Sand. Ilis fault, if fault it be, is
more venial than Miss Dewey's, who has
rendered the "Miller of Angibault" like a
very good French scholar, but primly, and
with frequent lapses into the foreign idiom,
which cornea hat weaken even Grand. Louis's
appeal to the heart of the English reader.
Miss Vaughan alone seems to possess exactly
that delicate balance of mental qutilities essen
tial to a translator of the first order. Iler
thought—not her speech, which is quite
another thing—adapts itself to French forms
with marvellous ease and grace. She has
reached that enviable, and by many unattain-
able, point where a foreign language becomes
a'iliseovered sense rather than a conscious
acquisition.
A good deal of address tins also been shown
in the order in which these books have been
ntb-red to the American public. " Mattprat"
was gallantly given first, and " Mat prat,"
by the boldness of its conception, and its fear
less handling of topics usually held too deli
cate for full discussion, wan more likely than
any of the rot; to have offended our anxious
sense of decorum. Yet clear heads and sound
heart were prompt to acknowledge its unique
and even solemn power, and confessed, with
something very like awe, the pungent moral
stimulus which the talc conveyed. The' af
fecting history of Bernard Mauprat does in
derl shed hopeful light into one of the darkest
and hitherto most fearfully avoided recesses
of human nature. As indicating indirectly
the root of the great social evil and its only
possible palliative, "Mauprat" is worth more
than reams of grim statistics, and libraries of
pious sentiment.
The public having received, and, let us
hope, pondered, "Mauprat," the rest of the
enterprise was easy ; and, indeed, there is
scarce anything either in the matter or man
ner of the four remaining volumes to offend
the most fastidious prudery. As in "Man
prat," certain moral ideas, in "Monsieur
Sylvestre," certain philosophical speculations
are embodied In the narrative. It is more
customary in such a case for a narrative to be
embodied, or rather embedded, in the theories
proposed, but our author's is perhaps the
better method. "Antonia" and the " Miller"
are love stories merely, but very charming
ones, full of fresh incident and delicate charac
terization. The " Snow Man" is much more.
It is really one of the most enchanting tales
of pure romance ever conjured up by benevo
lent genius for the refreshment of a jaded
world. If there are any men and women
lett in 'our country who can condescend to be
simply amused, who can even appreciate un
mixed, and childlike enjoyment, let them leave
their several missions and engagements, their
toil, whether of pain or pleasure, long enough
to read or re-rend the "Snow Man." Yield
ing quietly to the weird enchantment of its
northern. scenery, its piquant yet tender
human interest, the 'atmosphere of mild my
stery which involves all the persons of the
drama, and the soft, changeful. aurora-like
light of humor which plays perpetually over
all their goings, the reader will tidd restored
to him, for one hour at least, the very dew a f
his youth.
And this, which constitutes the superlative
charm of the "Snow Man," the time honored
and legitimate charm of intricate plot amd ro
mantic situation, is present, though in a less
degree, in each of the remaining volumes. It
he, in fact, the single excellence common to
them all, and that which renders them par e
tieularly well worth the study of those who
aspire to write fiction. It is well 'enough for
that vast multitude to be occasionally remind
ed that a novel, however much of abstract
wisdom it may casually betray, is properly
l'anii primarily n work of art, lamenting meant
for pleasure rather than profit. The gift of
story-telling le, in truth, a divine and very
rare one ; and the dramatic form is almost al
ways abused and vulgarized by those who af
fect it without a distinct vocation. It has be
come fashionable, Indeed, to teach entirely by
parables: speculations of all sorts, save one—
those in physical science—seem to ba present
ed by preference, in the form of novelettes.
Weak plots and wordy characters are the al
most universal result; insomuch that one
wearies of the neat ;2mo, whereby one is in
vited to shape onps course, or regulate one's
belief, no less than of the eternal box of tro
cites with which our clerical friends attempt
so vainly to exercise the east wind. May it
not indicate a return to more healthful modes,
both of thought and feeling, when those who
have truths to impart, or causes to pli.ad,dare
oftener trust to the power of simple state
ment and direct appeal P The so-called ques
tions of the day are either mostly idle, or they
are worthy of grave, concentrated attention.
While the uneeniable luxury of following
Imaginary beings through scenes of fancied
trial and triumph had better, perhaps, be re
served for our moments of mere rel 'tuition, as
it was in the already good old days of the Wa
verly novels. Art and phlanthropy might
both gain by such a readjustment of their func
tions. Meanwhile, it is suggestive that the
one branch of Inquiry which has escaped dra
matic treatment is the only one where great
and satisfactory progress is just now being
ntado. When the "Thrilling Adventures of
a Germ Cell" shall have become the theme of
a popular novelist, the doctrine of evolution
will probably receive no farther development.
No doubt fiction, like other forms of art,
will be measurably modified, will acquire a
certain general hue from the leading ideas of
its time ; and this pervading tint, If the work
be worthy to survive, will one day constitute
a part of its historic price. The artistically
constructed stories of George Sand herself
would lose much of significance and intensity
were there not ever present to the horrizon
of her consciousness and advancing cloud or
a retreating storm, adding splendor to the
lights, and deepening the shadows of every
I ieture she paints for us—the monstrous phan
tom of the Revolution.
It cannot be uninteresting,to-day,to inquire,
in passing, how that dire portent has been re
garded by one astute and dauntless soul who
has seen it repeatediy and near at band, and
that in its most appalling aspects—its frequent
paroxysms of fury. The answer rendered by
the works is plain. in the dyed this Titanic
force inspires,and the pity its ravages evoke,
there always seems to mingle a sentiment akin
to reverence. To this unselfish dreamer,even
when herself despoiled, the revolution is still
the stern messenger of that heaven in which
she will believe, the blast that clears, the lire
that purifii , s, the mad prelude to all that she
deems sweetest in life and most harmonious in
society, the grim nurse of the virtues she
would have us love—simplicity, fortitude,
brotherly kindness of class for class, humility
in wealth, patience in poverty. Or, rather,
it has been so until now. Has she kept her
faith, one wonders, through these last terrible
days of April—days of utmost horror and hu
miliation Y Or is she ready at length to turn
her aged face to the blank wall of fate, and die

Pitoenccies uttered by persons who neither
possessed nor pretended to inspiration have
often caused at least momentary uneasiness to
people who were too well educated to be su
perstitious. Some of the predictions recorded
in the memories of Napoleon the First have
undoubtedly thus exerted a direct and positive
influence u, on the history of France, and so
of Europe. While no one believed that the
great soldier spoke Under the effect of any di
vine afflatus, few have failed to recognize the
remarkable sagacity with which he read the
characters of nations and the signs of the
times. Hence, no doubt, the degree of im
portance attached to or the interest fent)) , some
distinguished politicians in his famous predic
tions that " in fifty years Europe would be
either Republican or Cossack." Lately the
same Napoleon has been so much clouded or
' degraded that few have taken note of the fact
that in the month of May just concluded, the
period of the prophecy was accomplished, as
the Emperor died in May, 1821. Though the
words of such utterances may not be too
closely interpreted or strictly pressed, It
is natural, at the literal termination of the
time designated to look about for indications
of the verification or falsification of the prog
nostifleation. This is especially natural
when its terms are so free from ambiguity
as they are in this case, leaving no room for
controversy concerning time, half time or
prophetic year. The fifty years having
elapsed, not only is Europe not republican, but
even France seems farther removed than ever
before from the prospect of possessing demo=
cratic institutions. Recollecting the course of
events in that country it is an obvious specu.
lation that Napoleon's prediction has been no
insignificant agency in counteracting or pre
venting its own accomplishment. The dread
of republicanism rendered the people willing
to accept the most odious despotism with all
its abuses, as a less evil than the one which
they were taught to expect. Familiar by ac
tual experience with republicanism only of
the Red type, promising socialism as its
highest development, their fears welcomed
the government of Louis Napoleon as a refuge
from the fate foretold them by his uncle, and
by the degradation and ruin brought upon the
population by personal rule, they seem utterly
unfitted fir selrgovernment in any form. We
may add that the ready and friendly counte
nance and support which the second empire
received from other European governments
were much prompted by belief In the Napole
onic prophecy.
The other alternative, the Russiflcation of
Europe, also seems very remote. Europe is
not only not I ossack, but the unification of
Germany and the establishment of the Ger
man Empire. make it certain that Europe is
not destined to he Cossack. In reference to
this side of the prediction with as much pro
priety of torching the other; we may say that
it frustrates Its ruifflinents by aiding to iiispire
that Itossrmitoby which has controlled the
politics of western Europe for the lust fifty
years.—Piffiburgh Commercial.
WORKING THE CORN
Tee the Editor of the Germantown Tf. 'eyerreph
The corn looks in some places well In others
badly. Some of our neighbors are using'the
cultivator already and others arc waiting fora
larger growth befitre working. For ourselves
we pref•r to use the Kelsey harrow as Boon as
the tender shoots show themselves through
the ground. rids will give the corn a chance
with the grass and weeds, which If the farmer
waited till the crop was large enough to work
with the cultivator, would have a chance over
the corn. 1 would adopt this plan : first go
ing over twice with the harrow (with' the
front teeth extracted), then let it rest till fit to
work with the single cultivator, when ! would
work it say four times, after which I would
take the MrCormick corn-plow and plow to
the row ; then take out the plow and put in
the cultivator teeth, work It till level and
leave It alone ; but I would try at least once
a week to go over it with the corn plow to
work up the soil. I would not spend much
of the time with the hoe. This khelieve to be
a good way to treat corn. I would not omit
the corn-plow for a large st u n ; and that It
works effectually, one clean field (and pro
ductive) at least in this neighborhood can tes
tify. A WORKING, FARMER.
