I " The d 1 1" said he.
" I am thunderstruck 1" exclaimed Fred
to me. " The world is at an end. The
sun is out. What I Kate my dear Kate?'1
Tears gushed from his eyes.
" I saw it myself," said the servant.
" Kiss her !"
" Six times," said John.
Frederick caught tho pistol, and point
ed it at his head. I wrenched it from his
grasp,
" Come with us," I said. "Fcrhap3 it
may be a mistake.'
Wo opened tho door toftly. In tho
next room sat Mrs. B.j at her feet a richly
dressed young soldier, who kissed her
hand, received from her a lock of hair,
swore he loved her, and left her with an
ardent embrace.
" I am suffocating," said Fred.
" Hush !" I exclaimed, "see there is
another. How familiar hs seats himself

" I shall strangle to death. "
" Patience 1"
" Dearest I'oloncl !" exclaimed Julia.
" The other was only the Lieutenant,'

" I am ble3eed with too few euoh fuith

I held 1' red still with tho grasp of a
giant.
" That I love you I cannot deny. A
woman of sonl loves just as she happens
to be placed in relation to men. Sha is
warmed by their noble characters,
is when she stands in the sunshine. It is
the great principle."
"Loveliest of thy sex," said her com
panion.
Fred burst forth, levelling both pistols
at tho Colonel. Hu pulled the triggers but
they did not go off. Pistols loaded with
saw-dust seldom do.
The C!olor.el uttered a scream, and fled
" Madam,'' said Fred, swelling with in
dignation, "have you any more of these

" I am not to be preached to, traitress,''
said Fred. " I leave you now, forever ;
but not till I take vengeance on my new

" Thoy are here," she answered.
The door was thrown open, and the
two officers, with ihcir chapeaux off, were
heard giggling and laughing in a most
uumilitary manner.
Fred soon discovered the truth, and I
read to him his moral.
Hnsbands, all, remember that wives
havo equal anguish and shamo with your
selves, in receiving a share of affection,
though thoy do net possess your despotic
power in extorting it. The slightest dere
liction, even through only the carelessness
of a moment, on tho part of a wife, stamps
her forever with ignominy and pain j while

Tho Chargo of Murat at Eylau.
It is at Eylau that Murat always ap
pears in his most terrible aspect. This
battle was fought in mid winter, in 1807,
was tho most important and bloody one
that had then occurred. Franco and Rus
sia had never before opposed such strength
to each other, and a complete victory on
cither sido would havo settled tho fate of
Europl. Bonaparte remained in possess
ion of the field, and that was all ; no vic
tory was ever so like- a defeat, The field
of Eylau was covered with snow, and tho
little ponds ,hat lay scattered over it wero
frozen sufficiently hard to bear tho artille

Just then the snow storm clearing up,

high reputation on this oceasion,and prov

of the great confidence Napoleou pkced in
him.
Nothing could be more imposing than
