His s)p, lolly aware of his father’s only fading, sought ow ry possible means to keep him from the table, in tho h p-, vain though it was, that the passion would lose its held upon him, and that eventually he would be tlofough ly we ate 1 from cards. Ilardie landed in Fncrnmento with about one hundred dollars iu money, the of h : s once amp'e fortune, snd wi'heutan hours delay pushed for the njim s which had just been discovered tt the wrs'warJ of Co'oaia (fc ruierly iStiifter'ville,) wher-’ if was rumor ed very rich vws had Icon dissovorod By a chance Ilardie nd bis ton uade the acquaintance on the road of two honost- I eirted, advcnt&rous sailors, and they di tor mined to ‘inspect’’ (Lo counfiv t-gether. Oa the fourth day from tl eir L aving Sac rament i the lit lo c< tnpnny entered a gulch which suh--rquen ly became femous cs tho “Oregon, ,T at and there succeeded a claim that amply rrpiid the adverturers for their time and labor. At tho ext iration of four rriwntliK the company had rea ized twenty thousand dollars. This was equally divided, one halt being handid to Ilardie and his gen, while the other was retaired by their co lahi ri rs. V\ lien the division had been sat isfact rdy made,lla die bre-amo suddenly rest,'ess. He ii t : mated a desire to return to Sacramento, there to eng-ge in some mercantile pursuit for which bis early e.U ,ueation had fitted him, and he (ff.rcd to sej! his own and his son’s iu'e est lo the soil oh. These men were rfluctaLt to part, with him. The lad was also adverse to the proposition; but Ilardie persisted in his resolution, and fiually disposed of his claim for twenty five hundred duliars.- On returning to Hacrametifo, Other and sop, the read'T perc-'ivos, had the snug little ctq itakof upwards of twelve tlionsjsn.i dcl lurs to bigin with llud lluFdie, as he honestly lutcnded when at Oregon canon, at. once embarked in trade, he could Lava in a few ranutbsfrtblnd, if not quadrupled b ; « capital, ami peril p , in the eeutas of«'ouple of years, returned to tho Atlantic Htures wi’h a fntnne qui e as large as he was mas ter of bt-fjro the uuhia fir gembling came up wi him. -Uof’cnuatcly for h : m 1 ostver, before I e had fully arranged t i-t ruorcuQtie! pr jnets, ho rt newed Ids aeqn;iotaoee with a gontle mh.n,vhitikc lim elf had loon addicted to gambling, atd was by him iudueed to visit the Kmpi'e Ba.IL on at that tucc the <rf the town, whore faro, nmn e, iogue et F.tiir, and other ganns of oh ire; wore ep-nly pla}o-i—u “hell,” where (hirer i, after in uths of exp sere, perhaps of sivkoQSs, and always of hard la bor. would l Be there hundreds of tl onsjuids of do'lurs in a s ng’e hi 'rid, and bceomprlKd nvryurn ti the with saddured he rta, t iw’n f. in the rivers and hills •boss tiihles wLM) forlttueLuldenied Lhein at the gluring tulle.

The ncxr night, and the next, Ilardie was at the tabic—now however acenmpan ii cl ly hie su, who with tears in his eyes stQid Ly the chair an which his father sat and trembling saw their little capital pass into the hand, of lh* bankers of the game llc, poorb>y, entreited his parent not t • indulge in the wild intoxication, to save money, arid if he would not engage in some legitxuirte Ludness, either to return to the mines or ais home in the far off East. He might as wi ll have trie tl to persuade tho hardened wretches who were swindling his fa’her to return to the path of rectitude—of honest deabrg. Oo the third night Ilardie found hiruself the owner of fvo hundred dollars. llis thousands Lad already passed out of Lis hands. 1 will win all back owloose tho remain der before I rise, ho muttered. -“Poor George" he added, as lie glauced at hia son, l ought nut fur the boy’s sake to have given away to my besetting sin, but I could not help it. The next momcDt Lis mind was ab. orb ed in the game. Fortune seemed to be agaimt him —in a few moments, ho had but cue hundred dollars left. This ho bold ly j I iced on the quc'eD, and calmly awaited the result. Thus waiting, he leaned his el bow of his left arm on the arm chair, and while the caids weie being ahefiLd, hid his faui iu the open palm of his baud. A number of spectu ors were at the fable bukniujof them ventured so heavily uh Uardie, and took their losses and winnings with some ilegrce ol equanimity A few seconds of silence folk wed the placing of the “deck” iu the faro-box, and h:n amid the silence might be heard the noi:e of the cards as they were drawn there from anddioppid upon their operate piles. Lost said the dealer, in a low smooth, tone and ere the sound of the vuioc had died away ■ll the table were either paid or swept to the other side of the banker. “The queen wins,” he added, in the same indifferent tone. But before the announc ment ihe queen’s win, had been made ‘lie son observed that his father’s body slightly quivered s with emotion, and then remained passive as ber fore. Yes! Ilardie had won- Fortune had ngniu smiled upon him. His bet hul b>cn added to by tho bankerp but he did uot at tempt to remove it. Was he about to try his luck the secoud time? Yes! he made uo i e,alive movement. Again tho c> ids were dealt from the box, on 1 again Bardie’s firtifnc was ii. tbeascen dant— but to the surprise of all he permit ted his winnings ij lemaij ou the ljrtuuatc card. “ I'he nnn is either nsVep, drunk, ora fool,” whispered a looker-tm, just os the winning osrJ turned up for tlie lightb time, or he would not ri-k so much. “Eather, father” whispcrid tlie hoy as he saw with nervous exoitemi wt the weilth which was at each moment increasing fn his parent’s side at the mine time dreading with those around -him i’s sudden loss. Again and for the last time tbe queen turned up to the utter ameaement of the spectators oa iheskie of the bitter. Fur nine successive deals the queen turn ed up favorable to tbo batter, it was ex traordinary— arrange tho pack as the dealer might, the curds at each distiilmtion on which ilardie Lad placed bin last hunred do'lan would turn up in his favor, Tbe hun dreds had rapioly iuereaßjd to thousands of dollars. At last so rxoecding'y hiavy had the bets become, that the entire company iu the sdoou gathered around tho table, and wondered at llio temeiity of the man wlu> dared so uiueh-fir as all knew, ois adverse card and the bank would again have in its possession the enormous pile 1 1 gold aud silver,Jhatnow, like a huge pyramid,glit’er ed over aud completely obscured the quecti For a moment the bankers and dealers consulted together, aud then the latter said iu n calm but somewhat unsteady voice— “ The bank will rrc-ivo uo more Lets tu uight. It is closed.” The announcement that the hai k had been broken seemed to ruleaso the tongues of the spectators, who instantly set up u cheer at the unwm ted event. “Father, father,’’cried the lad, “the bank is broken, all this is yours ! (Joint! There was no movement. A “'ranger took bold of the hand llai'Jie had pi 'ccd on the table, and with an oath declared the man was slspidly drui k, rnd did’nt. know what he was abou“. As he attempted io remove bis hand, he suddenly started back, and before h t could nprn bi« lips to express his ait nvit-hment, HardtuV head fell heavily on the table. A slight examination told the talc. The poor gambler was dead. Subsequent inquiry proved that he hud diudi.f liia.it disease brought ou by uHdhc excitement. The bankers not forgetting their in'erost, set ap a elaim for the nronuy thry had h s K , but this was overruled. It was given to the boy, who without unnecessary delay, re turned to tho “ata-tes.” What, became of him afterwards, I never Learned.

A couple of young girls, seated on a dwell rssii a pleasant culture ou the outskirts ol Ha Seilie, a pretty village ristufed on the lowest point of tl ti Bay es Touh n, discussed a subject which seemed to be to them of the high' at importance. “Thou art mistaken, Z pbyrine,” cried the younger, whoso eyes and hair were very dai k, and who wort-a white silk frock, wiih pink garnitures ; “the long veil aud orange wreath are g 'ing out of fasho n, aud Blanche will be married iu white crape, trimmed with jenquilf,” * 1 Lope she won’t go back to the style in which our grandmothers were married, and put on the amadis, troin and all ; but let me tell thee, l’aulette, that I don’t think Blanche is happy, whatever may be her dress and coif fure, or however splmdid may be tros seau and curb'dllc.” “J/a fui! Zephyrine, thou dost not sup pose tlmt Blanche herself with dr amsi” . “Docs she mt ? Then, why did she call on old Madame Dclarme, who lives in the hut by the seaside, aud pay her five fraues for bcrcroakiugs V’ “Asd what did the old Lu’.dame till hci?” “Why, thou knowest that on aeo uot of a strange dream,. Blanche has been troubled with a fear thaf something would interfere to prevent her oiairiago. She has got the promise from Aladamo Dclarme that no man or woman living shall thwart her wishes.” “Then she ought to be content.” “Truly she ought, unless she fears that some ghost shall come from the churchyard, or h’om the morgue, and interfile between her and her affianced.” “She is safe, if no living person interferes with her. Yet she is content ?” “She is more sad than ever.” “I have never learned the nature of hci dr am,” sail Paulette. “That is the mystery, She has never told h(sr dream ; she seems to hold it iusui!: hor ror that she is afraid to hear it from her own lips." “Truly, then, she places little confidence in ths eouthsayi:!.” ‘ It is possible,” said Z pbyrine, “that the words es (he soothsayer do not reach tbr case. Her dream, it seems to me, muit have touched upon the supernatural, and may have lo relatiuu to a living man or wornsr. “Mun I)itu ! but that is absurd. Blanche is not rt> weak, 'i hou dost lit■ le cridit io the undejstauding of thy frieid ” “If we could always be ruled by an understanding, we shuuld s.- ilom indu g - in gl . my forbo • ings ; but, we have flash, blood and apiii , as well as intellect, and few of us are ruled by reason.” While the last speaker was pronouncing these words,a young lady entered tbe cot tage, and with a sort of dancing step aprcacb cd tho apartmeitin which Paulo te, Z ine was seated. She was about the m (Idle height, oxqui sitely formed, though some might have thought the sylph predominated too much. As who swum into the room, her pink eoloi ed garments fl atfd around her in a cL ud of gossamer, one might almost have imagin ed that the Ia 1 j s. al gh’ed from the char iot of tbe. tuii. “I am g)ail to see ytiii so lively, my dear Blmche,”sa and Zephyrine, “especially as tho time is very near. Lo pore Guiohuad is iu :he next room.” “I feel relieved, child, Ixciusc the time is s > near,” lisped the f tiry Blanche. “True dear, there can be no intt rfcronce now Your forebodings wort without cause. They say that girls who are about, being mar ried are often nationsL Some think thoy are going to die, and often imagine that somatMf’gis going to happen,” “Bah ! ’iwas only a ilrean —but it made so<-h an impression upon me ! “And I observe that thoso arc the dreams which are never fulfi.hd," cried l’aulo'te ; ' ‘they are a sort of nightmare caused by lato suprera ” “Let that pass! said Zephyrine. smilim?; “we will talk of something else. You goti I’a'is iuino diately after tlie ceremony.” The pii-'at entered the apartmout, followed by llio brideiroun and a ten‘an's Tbe hap py pair stood side by side and the ccii niohy was about to proceed, when a terriblo crash was hoard, as if ths roof was bio 1 en in,thr ceiling overhead gave wav, and the uiortcr aud dust covered the pioliahcd floor. Almost at the smic moup n*, a quivering, mangled corpse fell between the bride and low companion, and the white garments of tho forn er were *Hed »i>h blood. “Ul’, horror! he has come! ” shrieked Blanche; and she fell lifeless upon tie do»d body. “.Mercy !” screamed Zq-hyrinc, “it is her brother ! It is Edward ! ’ The mother of the bride was borne fniot ing from the roum, and fer somo moments no one seemed to know what to do, or to be able to guess what had oecuried.
