I was not long in pereeiv:ng that Baron Von
S .rth and a young stu-I , •nt named Werter were
particularly sensible to Ell, la's charm.; and went,
In the baron, a middle aged man, tliere was a
mixture of dignity and cagy rness which betrayed
an Miaow, constant htruggie between pride and
the energy of a strong pas4m. It is between
the ages of thirty and forty that the passions
have most empire over u. At that period of
life the character is completely formed; and as
we very well know what we desire, so do we strive
to attain our end with all the energy of a perfect
organisation.
Werter was little more than nintivn years old.
He was tall, fair, and melancholy lam per

student by the intermediation of the ansiewi

lated himself in A corner of the room, and there,
in a mute eestaoy, the poor boy inhaled the poi
son of love.
The pretensions of Ellen's two admirers man•
tested themselves by attentions of vary different
kinds, and in which were displayed their differ
ent natures. The baron bought Mrs. Muller
tickets for concerts and theatres. Often at the
dessert, he would send for delicious Hungarian
wine, in which he drank the health of the ladies,
slightly inclining his head to Ellen, as if he would
have said—l bow to you alone. Werter would
stealthily place upon the piano a new ballad, or a
volume of poetry; and when the young girl took
it up, his face flushed and brightened, as if the
blood were about to burst from it. Ellen smiled
modestly at the baron, or gracefully thanked the
student, but she seemed not to suspect that which
neither of them dared to tell her.
An attentive observer of all that passed, I did
my utmost to read Ellen's heart, and to decide
as to the future chances of the baron's or the stu
dent's loves. Sbe was passionately fond of narra
tives of adventure, and, thanks to the wandering
life I bad led, I was able to gratify this taste. I
noticed that traits of generosity and noble devo
tion produced an eztraordinory effect upon her.
Her eyes sparkled as though she fain would have
distinguished, through time and space, the hero
of a noble action; then tears moistened her beau
tiful lashes, as reflection recalled her to the rea
l.ties of life I understood that neither the baron
nor Werter was the man to win her heart; they
%stn.. neither of them equal to her. Had I been
ten years younger, I think I should have been
vain enough to enter the lists. But another per
son, whom none would at first have taken fur a
man capable of feeling and inspiring a strung
passion, was destined to carry off the priz
One night, that we were assembled in the
drawing-room, one of the habitual visitors to the
house presented to us a Jew, who had just arriv
ed from Lemberg, and whom business was to de
tain fir some months at Vienna. In a few words,
Mr. 'tluiler made the stranger acquainted with
the rules and customs of the hbuse The Jew re- I
pli,u by monosyllables, as if he disdatoed to ex
p.,ni more words and intelligence upon details so '
entirely material He bowed politely to the In.
glAnced s miliugly at the furniture of the
1..0w. round which he twig• walked, as if in to-!
ken of taking possession, and then instsiled him
sell u, au arm chief. This pantomime might have
beet, trauslated thus: "There I am; look at we
out, i r All, and then heed me no more." Mr
Lit was the Jew's name—bad de•
cidL•l limp iu his gait; he was a man of the mid
dle height, and of a decent bearing; his hair
was neglected; but a phrenoligtst would have
read a world of things in the magna cent devel.
opin,•nt of his forebeal.
The conversation became general. Mr Mal- '
thus spoke little, but as soon as he opened his
mouth everybody was silent This apparent de
ference proceeded perhaps as much from a desire
to discover his weak points, as from politeness
towards the new comer.
Ilfu 1.4.4.1 e,
The Jew had one of threw penetrating and sa
noroua voices whose tonea seem to reach the very
soul, and which imparts the words and inflexems
not less varied than the forms of thought. He
summed up the discussion logically and lucidly;
but it was easy to see that out of oonsideratiou
fur Lis interlocutors, he abstained from putting
forth his whole strength

per.rut t to, that Ellen, yieldiog to a sytnpathetic
impulse, mad, an abrupt uluseinent towards him
Their two - -eel. had met, Awl were destiued
tnn
tunlls to complete each other.
Then I applied myself to observe his more
attentively When Mr Malthus was so strong
1, moved and animated, nevertheless, by the ex
pr e • s ion of his eyes, which seemed to look with
in himself, one could observe that he was inter
nally preoccupied with some of those lofty
theughts identified with superior minds. Some
celebrated authors were spoke of; he remained
sileut. Baron Von North leant over toward me
and said, in a low voice, "It seems that our new
acquaintance is not literary."
-I should not be surprised at that," I replied:
"and what is more, I would lay a wager that he
is musical." The baron drew back, with
a movement of vexation. and, as if to test
4agacil, he asked Ellen to sing something—
The amiable girl begged him to excuse her, but
ivithout puling forward auy of those small pre
texts which most young ladies would have in
vented on the instant. Her mother's authorit . )
was needed to vanquish her instinctive resis
tance. Her prelude testified to some uuwonted
agitation; its rat notes roused the Jew from his
soon she recovered herself, and her visi
ble emotion did but add a fresh charm to the
habitual expression of her singing.
Suddenly she stopped short, declared that her
memory failed her.
Then. to her astonishment, a rich and harmo
nious voire was heard, and Ellen continued. ac•
companied by the finest tenor I ever listened to
in my life.
Toe baron bit his lips; Werter was pale with
surprise. Warmest app lause followed the C 012•
elUsiol2 of the beautiful duet.
Malthus had risen from his chair, and seemed
entat.oly under the ape lof harmony. He gay
some advice to Ellen, who listened to him with
avidity; he even made her repeat a passage,
which she afterwards sang with admirable ex
press i Jo. lie took her band, almost with enthu•
st.ssui, and exclaimed, "I thank you."
"Very odd indeed," said the baron. Poor
Wetter said nothing, but went and sat himself
down very pensive, at the farther end of the
drawing room.
Mrs. Muller was radiant at her dangliter'ssuc
msg. As to Elieo, she merely said, ins low
voice—
"If I had instruction, I should perhaps be
able to make something of music."
itWith your mother's permission," rejoined
Malthus, "I shall have pleasure in sometimes
~,,citupaoylog you "
Mra. Muller east a scrutinising glance at the
Jew, whose countenance, which had resumed its
habitual calmness, showed nothing that could
excite her suspicions. She judged that such a
Tau wtes not at all dangerous, and accepted lira
offer. Malthus bowed with cold dignity—doubt•
leas apprec:ating the motives of this confidence
—and Ellen struck a few notes, to divert attan
t►ou from her embamasmen:.
Thu baron, who sought a vent for his ill-ho•
mur, said to the yoang girl, pointing to the Jew's
stick—
"If anything should halt in the accompani
ment, there is what will restore the measure."
Ellen rose, cast a look .t the baron, which
meant "One meets people like you everywhere,"
and Lill the room. Malthus took up a newspa•
per, and teed until we separated for the night.
The Jew led the regular life of a man who
knows the value of time. He worked nwil
noon, paid or received a few visits, went upon
'Chap about two o'clock, and then shut him
self up in his apartment and was visible to no
body, and at precisely four o'sloek entered Mn.*
Muller's room, where Ellen awaited Limiet the
piano. It was easy to see that be chilly assam

pupil, whom progress was raid.
ERIE, SATURDAY MORNIN% MARCH 3,1855,
The words were like a ray of light to the poor
girl, whose countenance expressed the utmost
surprise.
"13... sides, he is very young," idled Mrs. Mul
ler, loud enough fir the barou to hear
Werter's position was painful; he stammered
a few words, became embarrassed, and abruptly
left the room.
"A mere chlltl," said the baron, "who should
be gent back to big books."
Malthus, who had observed all that passed,
rested his two hands , u his stick, like a mau

"SING WHAT TOII INOW, BUTHILEX."
Some Summers ago it was our fortune to at
tend an Annual Conference of the Methodist
Ministers of Maine. On one of the evenings of
that week of meetings, there was a good old-fasb •
lotted Sermon by a ver y worthy and expellent
man from the "Upper Kennebec coanty." The
preacher (in the dulcet of his sect) evidently felt
the "reformation spirit," and he had "a tree utter
ance!' It was manifest to him, as well as to the
congregation, that a coal from the samealtar was
kindling a kindred flame in some of their hearts.
So, at the close of Lis "stirring" sermon, the
preacher, in all omfidenee, (and the sequel shows
that be was right) asked that such as were "aux
ions to close in with proffered mercy, and desir
ed the prayers of God's people, would come for
ward and take the front seats " While this was
being done, the preacher desired that "the breth
ren would sing a verse or two " A hymn was
started — but it dragged heavily—few voices join
et! to swell Its notes—and tilde halted, as if
doubting their acquaintand with its worth', or
1 the tune, and perhaps both. They had finally
got through with one verse, and hsd entered with
decreased spirit and power (if possible) upon the
' see-n , l, the preacher all the white, full of spirit,
I and animation, and hipe, urging the "mourners"
I forward. But the good mail could stand such
sioging no longer. It was so iii adapted to the
occasion and to his feelings, that be was obliged
to cease his efforts with the congregation, and
eszlog fur a moment upon the singers, from a full
heart he exclaimed, "Sing what ye know, breth
