A writerln the Democratic Quarterly Re

the following incident '
puss the seamen at Ba

Viing, beautiful and . charming, - and heiress

the young winless seen &mud herself stir-

all kinds,were not, poor;

pirants contended for her band by exhibiting
their address, grace and eeduotixo- qualities.

devoted to her. They had neither carte, at
tentias nor sighs, but for her, whereat many ,
beautiful Nromen—Frenoll,.English and Rue-
sian—were particularly mortified. Among
theso pressing suitors Helen solected . the most
worthless. The Chevalier Gaetin
was, it is true, a charming fellow, pale and
delicate, with•fine blue, eyes and wavy hair.—
In the place of true passion, he had eloquence,
__of-loek_and word ; short _he _dressed_ with
taste, danc - id marMously, and sang like itu
bini. But unhappily, these advantages were
contrasted with great vices., k' dissipated
gtimbler and unprincipled, the Chevalier Gee
tan bad quitted Naples in consequence of,somel i
scatidaltlue advepturbe in which ho , had been
impliOated. The count after-havinginformed
. himself of these facts, desired, but too late,
to put
_Ma daugliter_on Au! guard against a
dangerous affection. Helen listened neither
,to the advice, the prayers, nor the orders of
her father. , The man for whom he endeavor-
ed to destroy her esteem,was already - the
- Master of .bar heart, and she__ obstinately re
fihred to believe in.the disgraceful antecedents
of the young Italian. . - lartetan tad \ had 'to

the young countess, and the peaceful posse - ger
