THE BUCArjESFlO BRIDAL
A Story i if Old Spain.
hy i!. svurn.
If you had been on a certain island
in the Southern Ocean, one, tropical
evening, ioi t before tho rising of the
moon, you might havo seen a tall, pow
erfully built young Spaniard, clad in a
rich .naval costume, stanum" upon the
beach, atid earnestly pointing out o'cr
the water. j.ou would also havo seen
a uracel'ul zirl hanging on hi ami, and
pleading with him iu tunes of plaintive
expostulation.

when tho wars were over, and the old
hero retired his palaeo on the banks
i t the Giadelquiver, it was found to be

with lively satisfaction by tho parents
of both. Tot Alonzo would often break
away from tho sweet fetters of love, aud
with a number of young nobility, over
whom hejexercised an indisoribablo faaei
nation, spend days, and even weeks
hunting in the mountains.
At length reports camo to tho city
that his expeditions sometimes resulted
iu tho loss of more valuable lives than
those of the wolf and wild deer. But
Don MelenJez turned a deaf ear to these
rumors, believing them tho off
Bpringof envious scandal. Until infor.

the ducal palace, thU in a secluded
hamlet in tho mountains, he with his
dissolute companions, actuated by wan
ton recklessness, had broken in upon a
, band of worshippers, had massacred
tho aged priest at tho altar, and spent
tho night carousing on tho hallowed
wine, did he believe that a scion of his
noblo house could act unworthy. Hut
now, ho was waited upon by dignitaries
of tho church and court, who warned

Don Garcia, tho father of Inez, had

and forbidden his daughter to hold in.
tercourso with the young renegade, as
he deemed him. But sho indulged
her lover with many stolen meetings,
regarding his wild tales of adventure as
chivalrous inspirations. Her father
discovered her transgressions, and con
fined her in aa upper chamber.
Alonzo, expelled from his father's
house, awaited not the tardy movement
of Spanish justice. Jlut collecting his
comrades who had shared his last ex.
ploits, and were liab'o to the same con
demnation as himself, took possession of
4mall vessel and fled to the Llands
whero our story opens, and intrenching
themselves hero, becamo noted corsairs
increasing in strength, and a terror all
over tho seas.
Months passed away, and Inez, th'o
relcasod from confinement, still mourned
her lover. Itefusing tho offers of the
noblest gallants of Spain, she pxssed the
weary days in the gardon, watching
tho gay barges as they skimmed up and
d)wn tho river, and wondering if sho
should never hear, the mauly voice of
Alonzo or the sweet tinkle of his fumil'
iar guitar.
One evening, walking thus, her list,

ters."
And Ltzcllo rattled on for a long time,
telling her mistress tho wonderful ex-
p'oits of tho stranger, and his display
before tho council, which sho had heard
from some gossip or other.
When tho stranger arrived, his mag.
nificent nppcarancc, confirming the fame
which had gone belorc lum, charmed
all in a brilliant assemblage. (Vhcn,
after being presented to all, he invited
Inez, as the daughter of his host, to
walk in the gardens with him. Sho
consented gladly, that sho might com
verso with him upon the subject up
pcrawst in her thoughts. No Booner
were they out of hearing of tho cay lev
ellers, than her whole soul btoko forth
iu her question.
"Oh, sir, you havo sailed over all

able, whilo it altered his complexion
and the shape of his features, also heavy
curling locks which covered his head
and flowed below his elbows, revealed
Alonzo himself, in the gay cavalicring
suit be had been won't to wear in
her company. Sho neither shrieked
nor fainted, but like a true daughter of
old Spain, threw her arms about his
neck, aud covered his brow and checks
with kisses then brought him to tell
her all his past history.
"pfo, no," he exclaimed, "another
time. You shall be mino now forever.
Call your maiden gather up your jew.
els. All is arranged, liven now my
pinnace comes in sight !" and the pin
nace which Inez had seer, on the pre
ceeding evening, manned by the same
cavaliers, come up n tho mossy bank.
luez placed a silver call to her lips,
and, iu a moment, Lizellc stoed by her
side.'
"llun to my chamber, dear, and mako
immediate preparations for fl'ght. We
leavo Spain to"uight. Or, slay a mo
ment, I will go wiih you."
They had scarcely gono before tOTch
es eamo flashing through the grove, aud
Don Garcia burst upon Alonzo, followed
by a train of armed servants.
"IIo 1 impostor, have I found you ?
Siezo him, slaves, seize tho villain '."
The cavaliers from tho pinnace dash
ed upon nis train, whilo Alonzo speaking
a fow hurried words to each as ho camo
ashore, strode rapidly away, followed by
five of those to whom ho had spoken.
Taking a circuitous route ho had stood
beneath tlio chamber window of Inez.
The wiudow was open and Inez anxious
ly looked out. IIo bouudod up tho
stairs' but was met on tho way by weep
ing liisclle, who inlormed him that Don
Garcia had discovered who he was, had
locked up her ruiistrcss, and was now
seeking him, swearing to take his life
upon tho instant.
.Alonzo tried tho door; it resisted all
his efforts. IIo hastened back to the
ground whero ho had left his own men.
An iron trellis-work, of a small but
strong wire, supporting a fragrant flow
er juc, ran up the palace wall, past tho
window and over the turret above.
Alonzo climbed up this aud entered tho
window. In tho meantime two of his
men knelt on tho ground ; two others
stood upon their shoulders; the fifth
mounted the shoulders o! the last two,
and steadiod himself by holding tho
wiudow sill, which he could just reach.
Alouzo lifted Inez through the window
as if she had been an infant, then low.
ered her uutil she could set her foot up
on tho shoulder of tho nearest man and
grasp his collar with ono hand. The
men befbw extended their arms, and
taking firm hold of the trellis, formed
steps, or rouuds, from one to the other
of which she swung herself, and reached
the ground iu safety. The men then
immediately separated. It was all done
in a moment. -
Alonzo descended as he ascended ;
then ho snatched up Inez in his rms,
followed by his meu, ono of whom bore
Lizello in the same manner, and all set
out at full speed for the river, at a point
above the conflict, which they could
plainly hear.
When they reached tho water the
sound had ceased, and soon after tho pin
nace came to meet them. Alonzo, when
he left the gardens, had ordered his
men to engage the Don's retinue as long
as safety would allow, theu to take the

coat, nnd proceed to this point. His or
ders had been obeyed to the letter.
All hastened aboard ; the two maid
ens wero concealed below ; tho boat was
stripped ot its gay trappings ; tho gaudy
cabin metamorphosed into a common
hatchway. A deck ras laid, and it
number of Csh, recently taken, scatter
ed ovc it. The wholo was smeared
with mud and slime, and tho two oar.
men, who remained in sight, could not
in tho clearest sunshine have been ta
ken for other than ordinary fishciman,
propelling a fishing craft of the com
monest description.
As tho transformed piouace slowly
glided down tho stream, a number of
barges met them, bearing Don Garcia
and his rctitiuo, who, unable to capture
Alonzo by land, had taken up tho pur
suit upon water.
" Tell me knaves," shouted the Don,
" have ye seen the imposter's pinnace
above ? "
" What iraposter, my lord ! "
" What imposter, forsooth!" yelled
tho Don ; " by St. Jago, if thou auswer
cst not I will cleave thee from crown to
sole ! "
" Nay, my lord," replied the oarsman,
in feigned tremulous "icccnts, " we have
seen no pinnace."
" S'death 1 then he has escaped us !
Row, row on ! "
So the seeming fishing boat passed
by, and reaching a small vessel anchor
ed in the harbor, was, with its occu.
pants, quickly hoisted into it, and that
night weeping and wailing rang through
the ducal mansion, for tho lovely Douna
Inez had bidden an eternal adieu to the
shores of Spain.
Arriving at tho island rendezvous,
Alonzo, caused a throne to be prepared
in which he conducted Inez, and calling
around him his enthusiastic follower,
aunounccd to them their queen. They
received her with shouts of welcome,
and each man solemuly devoted the last
drop ot his blood to her honor and
safety.
The island was one of a group so sit.
uated that tho pirate vessel could be iu
its harbor, totally concealed from any
passing ship, yet everything that trav
ersed tho waters within sight of the
group, could be discerned from her
mast-head, as well as from the nook in
tho hills, where tho chieltan had con
structed his dwelling. This last was a
rural bower, shining within with s!lks
and gems, and its rear opened into a
cavern, extcuding many hundred feet
into the rocks, where wore gathered the
richest spoil. Tho cottage, tho habita.
tions of tho men, the openings from tho
cavern to the water, even tho paths
which led to them, were entirely con
cealed by the luxuriant tropical growths
and all the implements of their calling,
were, on their return from a cruise, so
carefully hidden away, that one 'un
familiar with the place, might land
upon tho island, without finding any
trace ot human lifo.
Inez reigned hero in perfect happi
ness for a few days. But Alonzo's fiery
soul panted for action. His men had
discovered a strange sail in tho offing,
and he burned to share iu its capture.
Our story opens during the preparations
for this cruise.
The littlo vessel lay at tho mouth of
tho harbor, her slender masts and filmy
rigging delicately traced against the
starlight sky. Alonzo had been point
ing out her beauties to his queen, and
endeavoring to make her share in the
delight ot his wild anticipations. But
for tho first time in his life, ho failed in
this. Sho sought to stay him with all
her pov.er3 of persuasion. Tenderly he
remonstrated with her, bidding her dis
miss her fears. And now tho full moon
leaped above the horizon ; thero was
hurrying pnd tramping on the deck ot
tho schooner. She began to spread her
white wings, and as they rouuded out
before the breeze, a boat put off to
shore for the chieftain. lie clasped the
betrothed in his arms, pressed ono long,
kiss upon her lips, then stepping into
tho boat was soon lost to tho view of
Donna Inez.
Months passed and yet ho camo not.
His band sailed on every sea, and visi
ted every port in search ot him, in vaiu.
When the siekuess of hope deferred
hid settled dowa upon her heart, as she
was one afternoon sweeping tho horizon
with her glass, sha saw a strange, sail
hearing directly down upon the island.
Nearer, nearer it camo, and with joy sho
recognized Alonzo's pennon. In less
than two hours the fresh breeze brought
the stranger iuto tho harbor, lie met
Inez on the beach, and snatching her in
his arms exclaiming.
" We are betrayed, pursued ; our on
ly safety is in flight."
It was too late, however. The pur.
suer, an armed Spanish vessel, was just
entering the harbor. Alonzo dashed
against his antagonist in full career, and
the two vessels were at once grappled
together. The Spaniards outnumbered
the coreairs four to one, and though the

Two resolute men out their wv; thr'o

When Alonzo woutnn this expedition
ho had been captured by the authorities
of Spain, and confined in prison unt'l ho
soould bo tried for his former sacrilege;
for the abduction of Don Garcia'
daughter and for the crime of piracy ;
but, making his escape, he had taken
another vesswl, raised another crew, and
compelled this priest to accompany bin1,
for the express purpose of iulliUirg l.ia
promise to Inez, in the perfoi inanco of
tho marriage ceremony. Much as (lie
holy man detested strife and bloodshed,
ho advanced with unfaltering sl.;p into
tho tumult, where Alonzo, with lm.x by
his sido, was combatting for life. A
ring of stalwart follows encircled the
throe, and beat back tho combatants
crowding upon theni. Clear and linn,
above tho savage din, aro.-c the voieo of
the venerable man, as he pronounced
the words which ma-lo them ono as
clearly and firmly aroso their responses.
A crash tho tiro had readied the
magazine, and coisair and Spaniard,
bridegroom and bride, tho priest, the
fighting and tho dying, plan!:, sp us,
and rigging, were hurled iuto the upper
air together. Tho waves, beater, into
foam by tho shown- of ruin falling upon
them, dashed high upon the shores, and
ran, surging and roaring, through the
channels aud inlets, theu subsided peace
fully, and all was still.
Ono solitary survivor remained, and
he was mangled beym.d all hepe ol vc.
covory. Walking along tho desolate
shores, ho discovered tho fonns of Inez
and Alonzo, lockt.d iu a close embrace.
They, betwocn whom adverse fete had
so oitcn interposed in life, were united
iu death. With incredible cxciiinns
ho dug a stallow grave, whoicin he
laid tho forms of his chieftain and q:ueu.
Then gathering into the cottage the
accumulated spoils of years, he applied

Simplicity in Iimgtiasc.
Dou't part with your common sense
when you write. You need not make
an idiot of yourself because you have a
pen in your hand. Bo simple, bo hon
e.t, bo unaffected in your speaking and
writing. Never use a long woid wh.no
a shot t ono will do. Call things by
their right names ; never smother your
thoughts with a cloud of phrases ; Lt a
spado be a spade, not a well known ob
long instrument of manual labor ; let
homo bo home, cot a residence ; a
place not a locality. Write much as
you would speak ; speak as you think.
With your inferiors, speak i;u cearser
than usual ; with your superior-;, n)
finer. Be what you say, and say what
you are. Avoid all oddity cl expression.
The wiso man will so speak that no one
may observe how ho speaks. Abovo all,
do not bore your company with an afke
tation ot prec'iion and accuracy. Ono of
the worst nuisances is tho talker who is
always setting you right. If some one
says that 10,000 men were killed in ono
battle, do not tell them it wa3 only '.i,
970. Allow for a littlo latitude of state
ment in the freedom ot easy tail:, aud
be not shocked w ith a certain degree of
harmless embellishment, when no l.-d.-e
impression is given or intended. Talk
to please, not yourself, but your neigh
bor ; give him tho refreshment ol sit.,
ting by a cheerful, modest, sensible talk
er ; one who is equally ready to give or
take, and who leaves his facts and hi.;
opinions oa your memory ; not the
words in which they wero uttered. Bo a
gentleman in openness of demeanor, iu
simplicity of manner, iu freedom from
singularity, if not so by birth. Show
your good tar.to and good breeding iu
your speech aud style, if not iu the fash
ion of your dress aud your knowlodc of
etiquette.
