The Three V idpws.
For several years I have ive*j in almost entire
sohlud,e k and truly I cannoi sap I have been un
happy. I have had my h >ok;, my flowers, my
household matters to attem to! and I can assure
you, time has never hung I *avj|- upon my hands
Many have wondered at myjsolitary mode of
life, and a thousand stranj >• surmises have been
afloat respecting me. In< ed |not lell you that
they have all beep incorre t, rsnd I am now go
mg to confide to you tba frjie icison of my
singularities. My ahsenci • fnina home have oc
casioned much conjecture; it Jias been supposed
that I was secretly connect d vtilh some lucrative
trade, which I had suHicien cause to keep secret.
I tell you at once it was i ot !so, and that what
wealth I happen to possess, is Jhat bequeathed to
me by my aunt, considerab y ir,*:reased, I own, by
my frugal method of life, in yarly youth I wish
ed to travel, and did so. I became attached dur
ing, my wanderings to a 1 eamiful Swiss lady,
and we were betiothed to < acHother. But, dur
ing a separation of unusua lergth, several of my
letters 'o her was lost, or, s f|imaginc were in
tecrcpted by one who had professed himself my
friend, whilstin reality he > aslny rival. At any
| rate, he prevailed on Blanc te \U fiirget her vows
I and become his wife. His afitjr conduct to her
was most cruel, and that, imj the discovery of
the pertiduous arts he had tsef to gain her con
sent to become his, so preys d t?ion her mind, that
she became deranged, and I ml’so completely that
she was obliged to be place- in-strict confinement.
Her husband died a few y ars; afterwards, and I
then sought an interview .’iil| her, hoping that
some glimmering of sens- mi|;ht be restored by
my presence. She did no; iaopearto know me at
first, hut after a time a fa nl fdawn of memory
seemed to steal over her mi id,land she called me
by my name weeping like cljjild. I weary you,
ladies, by this relation: I iav-3 no right to in
trude it on you, but I have i purpose in doing so.
The sisters all declared t 1 ey ivere much honor
ed by his confidence, and d ;ep»y interested in his
narrative, and they begged ae fvould proceed.
“After our interview, s! ; wjis calmer than she
had been since her appeared, and in
il future in her wild ist moments, she very mention of
* my name appeared to soo' lie ;.ier and invariably
produced a flood of tears, vv lids seemed to relieve
p her much. My occasiona presence, too seemed
productive of benefit; and itjp/as suggested to
H me, by one well skilled in toe* treatment of cases
similar to hers, that I shot: !d frequently visit her,
and remain in her neighh >rh od for a l< nger or
shorter period, as our inter iei s seemed to soothe
her or otherwise. I -'emovt J h ir from the asylum
where she had hitherto »eej; immured, to the
house of a skillful surce n, ? who «ent for me
whenever he deemed my might be use
ful. Till within the last too* months I had the
satisfaction of feeling that I her suffer
ings and was serviceable to|*he being I loved
best on earth. She does n»t i|r»e> Imy care.”
He slopped in sime ag hut resumed in
a few moments. |
“ Thank God her reasr i wfas restored before
her death, in all the clean es'-'jind strength of her
youth. She knew me, aid l|er last act was to
place her wasted hand ii mijhe, her last word a
blessing on my name. Deip* ladies, the being
who occupied my whole heights and affections
is gone, and the sense of I >ne)iness presses heavy
upon me. My heart ha bekn so long used to
have an object on which t expend its sympathies,
that I am unhappy in t; ie |want of it. Why
should not we befriends ! V«|u have all been suf
ferers peculiarly tried, anise have I; there is
much equality in our cin ninstances, and I have
c >rneto you this evening to sjiy what I never said
to a family in Frankfolt ifefore—“Let us be
friends ?” Buflcr me to lisitj you sometimes, to
take an interest in youraffaup, and as far as I am
able, to render you any as [sis&nce.”
The three widows wei ; certainly much aston
ished at Herr Bhoheln’s manner of introducing
himself to their acquait tan ; ::c ; but they were
touched and interested »y his story, and the
earnestness with which t esM.tary man appealed
to them for sympathy. They could not refuse
his request, and therein! e intimated that they
• should lie happy to recei e him when he felt dis
posed to visit them.
One of the party, how :ver, soon began to feel
some little regret that tl eir assent had been so
easily given. Scarcely d.iy went by without
some present of fruit or ege tables or other small
matters, being conveyed by khe ancient serving
woman of Herr Scl'.obi. i. If) the humble home
of his fair neighbors, ■ ad *-’ery shortly not an
evening passed in whirl hfs tall person might
not be seen occupying tl e itjithern chair of the
deceased tobacconist. I osephen felt somewhat
annoyed, despite of the natural kindness of her
i heart, because their pri ac\j seemed effectually
broken up. Amelia, on heicontrary, was secret
ly delighted, for .-he had thoughts on the subject,
which, however, she wot id not have communica
ted to Uoscheu for the i orbi. She did indeed,
venture on a few distant, hints of good foitune to
arise from this now ini nary, though as to the
particular form in which it was to come, she pre
served an oracular silent t; and Rose hen was too
much wrapt up in her o rn ; thoughts to attempt
to unravel the mystery, « to’-egard Herr Schobeln
as any thing but a very > out) neighbor, whose vis
is would bo iar pleasant r if they were not quite
so frequent. ’ ;
But during Roschen’i ; absence from the sitli ig
room. Amelia fell no su ih rj strain! in conversing
with the widow Stcinl lii it.' They talked on the
subject of Herr Schobeii’s’visits, and speculated
thereon to their hearts’ ;;onient. Poo r Gertrude,
deprived of the power o milking her own obser
vations on the slate of iffa|irs, always applied to
Madame Leroux for thi result of hers, and their
dialogues were general! c»,£Ti e d on in something
of the following strain
“ It is not of myself I sdeak.” said Gertrude;
“ my infirmities a.e a fuificient answer to any
thought that might ari e oji that subject; but if
he offer to marry eilh< r y|ou or Roschen, why
should you refuse the n *aub of escaping from this
life of toil and poveru ?” .
The tears of Amelia were by this lime flowing
fust, but her sister com nusd —
“ You are the best ji dgd yourself to which his
inclinations lend ; 1 sh »ul»| think he would most
likeK choose you. for {o*fthen's sorrowful voice
| alone would put such hobghts about her out of
I any man’s heath It r ust|be you, Amelia, and I
]
tro.tand beheve it will pro ve so, and therefore,
already I say, “ God bless you with him
i Amel.av,M mur.hple.sedal hearing thi, opin
ion expresw-d by Gertrade. Herr Schobeln’. .t
--tention had been hitherto divided so equally a
mongsl the sisters, that she felt some difficulty in
her mind as to which was the favored fair one.
Sue had a real respect for Herr Schobeln: she
ived day by day !n a happy dream of the fu
ture only wishing that he would be a little more
exp ic.t at once, that she might commence alter
ing her dresses for the wedding, which she had
not yet ventured to do, though she had already
turned them over many times, and contrived how
*might lie remodelled to the best advantage.
hy did not Herr Schobeln speak! He spoke at
last, and to Amelia herself, by herself; yet his
avowel had the effect of a sudden thunderbolt,
shattering to atoms the fairy palace of her hopes
and anticipations. He spoke, and after a long
preamble concerning the disagreeableness of soli
tude and the pleasures of the married state, he
finished his harrangue by begging, humbly beg
ging that Amelia would propose him as a suitor
to her sister Roschen ! What Amelia said, or
how she received the unravelling of his intentions,
cannot be known, for she never knew exactly
herselt. Bhe remembered something about pleas
ure and honor, and endeavoring to meet his wish
es, and then flew to the widow Steinback to dis
b irden her mind of the astounding intelligence.
But Gertrude did not sympathise with her exactly
as might have been expected. “They had been
mistaken ;’ that was all. She saw great cause
for thankfulness that the wedding and the wealth
would still be in the family, for, of course Ros
chen, though no doubt she would be astonished,
would never be so mad as to refuse him, if it
were only for the sake of little Franchette. She
shifted Roschen into the character of bride, which
she had hitherto marked out for Amelia, with
wonderful facility, observing.in conclusion, that
at any rate there would be a wedding, and they
would all be at il.

NOTICE TO DELINQUENTS.
I AM instructed by the Colonel to pub ish the
following extract from the Militia 1 aws of
this State now of loroe, for the information of all
those against whom executions have been issued,
and are now outstanding, —and add that‘‘fg-no?-ance
of the law excuseth no man.”
Prince’s Digest, pp. 6U4, Sec. 24, latter clause: ;
—“And the commanding officer of Regiments or ■
Battalions, upon receiving the affidavit of any de
linquent, (previous to the issuing of execution,J
properly attested by an}- officer authorized to ad
minister the same, and showing good cause why he
should not l-ave been fined, may direct the Clerk to
stay the issuing of Execution until the sitting of
the succeeding Court, when said affidavit shad be
laid before the Court, who may, upon the merits
thereof, remit or continue said line, and direct that
it be collected forthwith.
“And the Clerk shall immediately after the ex
piration of thirty days, (that is, after the sitting
of the Court) issue executions against each de
linquent who has failed to pay the fine assessed
against him, or to file the affidavit hereinbefore re
quired, signed by himself and countersigned by the
presiding odicer of the Court, or in his absence by
any other officer who was a member of the Court,
and directed to the Provost Marshal of the Regi
ment. * * Who shall proceed to collect the
same under the same rules and regulations in re
gard to Constables’ Sales generally ; and such ex
ecutions shall have the same dignity as though they
had been issued by a Justice of the Peace.” * * *
It frequently so happens that individuals (de
faulters) neglect to atten 1 Courts of Inquiry, to
render in their excuse for absence from parade ;
they also neglect to file with the Clerk their affi
davit, according to law. And yet, when the col
lecting officer calls on them to settle their fines,
they plead some trifling excuse.
Now, this is to notify all such, that after the ex
piration jf 30 days after the sitting of any Court
of Inquiry, no excuse can be rendered, nor will any
be accepted, unless made according to the requisi
tions of the law as above published. lam also
instructed to state that J. H. Clarke, Esq. has been
appointed Provost Marshal of the Regiment. Ex
ecutions have been placed in his hands, with in
structions to enforce the law rigidly.
