A It bough tales from real are usually consi dered too tame and insipid fur those whose element is the airy regions of romance, yet it sometimes happens that the actual occurrences of this old fashioned world, if embodied and described in the rich and glowing language of some of our living masters of fiction, would be considered too impro bable and wonderful to be true, without drawing upon the imagination for additional fitcls by way of embellishment. Such, we believe, would be the case with respect to the following narrative, were the writing of it not confided to a pen which set don*. agpiport to-bolder---flights4hati--aPa4iallad-for in the discharge of the dull and monotonous la: incident to the publication or a daily.newspa per. M— and B— were friends. Their friend ship commenced in boyhood—the season in which are sown in the unconscious and susceptible bo som, seeds winch spring into vivid impressions in youth, and ripen into stronger feelings in slier life. As they grew up to manhood, the bent of their inclinations was widely different ; though their common feelings of attachment grew with their growth, & strengthened with their strength. Our country , had drawn the sword to vindicate our national' right, and avenge her wrongs; and while the exhilarating notes of the fife, and the wild blasts of the bugle, fell on the ear-of' music—while his hosem swelled with enthu- Siasm, as his mind - dwelt on Martial employntents, and he lunged to participate in th 94,11 ries acquir ed by the soldier, in showing how liflds aro win, the other preferred to travel the smootherroad of domestic and civil life.

They had heard of false friends, and supposed that such might exist. But such was their confidence in each other, that the remotest suspicion of .treachery never darted a cross the mind of either. They felt as secure as the mariner when safely moored, who listens with pleasure in his hammock, to the din of the ele ments and the daSh of the waves without. , With the ardor of youthful imaginations; they drew glowing pictures of the future, and rejoiced in the anticipated advancement and prosperity of each other. Or if, per chance, an idea of the wayward ness of fate or fortune for a. moment awakened an unpleasant sensation in the bosom of one, it waS speedily dissipated by the assurance' ofreadyrolief from the other. Protestations of friendship were neither reiterated nor multi plied; there was a mu tual confidence that their bosoms beat in unison; and an indescribable feeling of regret came over !,m, as they grasped each other's hands, when 11-----stepped on board of the steam boat, and with faultcrindvoices, they• pronounced the word. larewell."

It was at the old village in the broadest sweep of this delightful vale, that 11.— was stationed for the purpose ofobtaining recruits for-the feeble ranks of our army. llere he became acquainted with a young lady, the daughter of a respectable and worthy farmer, for Mann he soon felt a growing attachment of that tender description ivbich warms the bosom of a young soldier. Though a native of thistranquil valley, yet her education had not been unattend ed to, & she had received that cultivation .of and those personal accomplishments, Which, when tompered wink good sense, and mingled with the innocence and sweet simplicity of country life, impart such a charm to the limn& character. It was in the sprig; that happy mid delightful sea son, when, as the poet tells us— “—From the virgin's cheek -a fresher bloom Shoots less and less, the live carnation round, Iler lips blush deeper sweets The shining moisture swells into her eye, _ --her wishing bpsoin heaves • With palpitations wild, kind tumults seize • Her voins,—and all.hcr yielding soul is love.” It is sufficient to say, therefore, withouthiting the veil, and exposing to the vulgar gaze all those lit. tlo refined endearments which constitute the lover's bliss, that the attachment was mutu al, But a few months of happiness, however, glid ed away, seeming to the youthful lovers but so many hours, before the sullen sounds of war roll ed along our frontiers, and M—received orders to join his regiment, and repair to the field. Their loves were plighted anew, vows of constancy in terchanged, and they parted—he to share' in the fatigues and perils of war, and she to count the days and hours of his'absence, rear the plants in Inv. parterre, weave garlands of wild flowers care lessly plucked as she strayed among the fields and meadMc : s of her ilither's domain, and watch the post and catch the first glance of the bulletins f(on the army. He was ordered upon - distant service, acquitted himself bravely in various actions ; and the peace found his shoulders graced with fwo epauletts in. stead of one. But it was his fortune to be kept in such active service, and to be transferred. from post to post, even to the remotest stations upon the western and south-westerri borders of our country that he was unable to visit the object of his early affections, and fulfil his vows, until the summer of 18—, when he came to this city, and was trans ported with delight, to find her on a visit to an el der sister married and settled in New *orlr.i "Ire will not attempt to describe the joy of their meet.
