But far from having fi rst seen the light

,It was Marie Nieholoewna, the adored
daughter: of the Emperor of Russia.
As her father saw her blooming like
the May flower, and saught for by all , the
heirs of royalty, he cast his eyes upon the j
; fairest, the richest, and thesuctit powerful
l of them, and, with the smile 'of a father ' ,
i and a king, said to her : • 1
"My child, you are now of an ago to
marry, and I have chosen for you the
prince who will • make you a 'queen,' and
I the , man who will render you happy."
"The man who will render me happy," -;
stammered :he blushing princess, with a 1,
sigh, which , was the only objection to
which her heart gave utterance. "Speak,;

she said, as she dais , a frown gath.;

"Obeyed!" exclaimed the Emperor,

The young girl was silent and concealed '

At this word, which sways sixty mil.
lions of humph beings, the princes fell at
the feet of the czar.
"Yes, father, if I must- iell you, my
heart is,no longer my own; it is bestowed
upon a young mnn who knows it not, and
who shall never know it, if suoh bo your
wish. He has seen me but two or three
times at a distance, and we will noverspenk
to each , other if your majesty forbids it."
The Emperor was silent in his turn.—
fle grew pale. Three times he made the
circuit, of the saloon. Ho durst not ask
the name of the young man: •

"The heir of a king, at least I"
''No, father?"

"No, father."
"A son of a reigning family ?"
"No, father."
At each step in the descending scale,
the czar stopped to recover breath. .
"A. stranger ?"
"Yes, father."
The Emperor fell back into an armed
chair, and hid his face in his' hands like
Agamemnon at the netlike of Iphigenia.
"Is he in Russia ?" he resumed with
an effort. •
"Yes, father."
"At St. Petersburg ?"
"Yes, father." ,
And the voice of the young girl grew
faint.
"Where shall I see him ?" said the czar,
rising with a threatening aspect.
'•To-morrow, at the review."
"How shall I recognize him ?" repeated
the czar, with a stamp of the foot.
"By his green plume, and his black
steed."
"'Tis well. Go, my daughter, and pray ,
God to have pity upon that man." The
princess withdrew in a fainting condition,
and.the Emperor was soon lost it thought.
"A childish caprice," he said, at length.
"1 am foolish to be disturbed at it. She
shall forget it 1" and his lips dared not ut• 1
