A BEAUTIFUL STORY.
THE CAPTAIN’S LOSS A NO Win
OW’S GAIN.
BV UEOBGE ACOISVC* MALA.
Al # fcigHtfuli, on an autunni evening,
when the s’ars iver- iint In pining io i
«winkle overhead, like dt-tnondf on a
canopy of azure, two yott.ig men were 1
stendiug togctli,-r, erngcd in con versa i
tnai, on the s:< j«* of tho llinck Eagle, n
f.mhkmable street of the gay'nnd cele-!
brntid city of Vienne. One of them j
wore the rich uniform of an Austrian j
Hi'.saar, ilm other i:'i t.e titlt i
costume of a gentl itiati.
“ So ail is completed at tho Ministry
of War, < xcept the signature of the com
mission an I the payment ul the pU'Chase .
money said the soldier.
“ Exactly so.’’
“ Ail tomorrow, then,'* confntied the
llu-.«a', “ l am to cwgrntnlate you on
the command of a company, and to sa
lute you a* Captain Karnes' Walstein." j
The U-l speaker was Capt. Christian 1
Sitinlur', an officer who hid seen acme
two year’s service.
“ Ah ' my hoy J” continued he, twirl !
inv his j-t black moustache, “ your uni- 1
form will lie a pasport to the stnil s os
the uir. Ilut you aemi already to have |
made your way to the good graces of ]
Madame von llerlingen, Ilia rich widow *
who resides nt the hotel,’’
“ Rah! she is forty,” answered Esrn
e»t carelessly
“ Hut in preservation, and beau’T for
all ths!,’’ said Capt. Steiuluil. “ The
H’irmj von Dagenf. ld was desperntely
in love with her, hut within a few dtift
the w i ioiv aeemes to have cut him.—-
Von are the happy nvtn after oil.’’
Cedeceive yours ls, my dear s h■ i--
tlin,'* said EtrWit b’usning. I have
only flirted with the hands.mso widow.
My hand is already engaged to a char
ming cirl, Meona Altenburg, tho plav
t iat.- «.f my infancy, ai'imied and reared
•• by rr.y lather. 1 am-r» i’,*.rT luTYit.
i >oon as I get ir y couipiny.”
! “An 1 w hat is to support you, Cap-
I twin Earnest ?”
• My pay of coarse, and tlio income
i of the m derate flowery which my father
I p'oj’OSee. to give Ilia favor to. Yoll see
' mv let in life is settled ”
j ‘ Precisely so,’’ replieil the Captain.
“ But since yott are fr.e this cventep, I
1 engage y>’U to pots it with m«. ll*vc
you g<>t any money about you
“A go’ll deal. Resiles the price of
mv eom miss ion, which if safely sowed
away in hank notes in this br< a ' pneket
1 have a handful r f ducats about me,
with whi ill I propsa purehft?ing some
trinkets fur my bride. Rnt 1 have a
: gold piece or two that I cun jpire if
“ Pooh! pooh 1 I'm well enough pro
vided,” answered tho Ciptain Y*ou
know this is pay day. Como along.’’
“ Rut wliithcr ?”
“ Ann shall aee.’’
With these words the Captain threw
hi< arm widen that of his companion,
and the pair walked off at a rapid rate.
After pa-sing through several Strer t -
Steinfutt balled and rung at the I*ll of
a stately m*n ion. It was opened by n
servant in handsome livery, and the
y rung gentlemen entered and went up
stairs
Walstein mod found himself in a
scene very different from any of which
he had ever dreamed in his simple rustic
lift- upon bis father’s farm. Around a
deal tab'e, covered with a cloth, were
nested more than a dozen person* of
difierent age* also intent upon what was
going forward, that the Captain and his
f:■ nd took tbeir seats unnoticed. At
the head of (ho table sat a man in a
gray w ig, with a pair of green spectacles
upon hi- n sc, before whom lay a pile
of'grdd, and who was busily engaged in
paying and receivihg money, and in
givieg an impetus to • small ivory ball
which apun, at intervalvs, its appointed
cour*. Walstein eoonlcained that this
was a revge tl noir table. The gentle
man in the gray wig was the bunker.
“ Make your game, gentlemen,” said
this individual, “ while the bull spins.—
Y-.ur luck os mine. Its all luck, gen
tlemen, at rouge el noir. Range tl noir
gentlemen, the finest in the world.—
Rlack wins—it's yours, sir—-twenty
ducats, and you have doubted it. Make
your game—black or red.”
** Try y"ur foitunc- Earnest,’’ said the
Cabtain.
Earnest mechanically put down a lew
ducats on tho red.
“Rtd Witts,’’ Mid the l>„.,k«r in tho
sauif monotonous lone. Make your
game gentlemen, while the ball rolls.”
Why need we follow the fortunes of
Earnest 00 this fatal evening, ns he
yielded, step by step, to the seduction to
which ho was now cxjto-od for the first
time iu hi r life. Long after S einfurt
left the gant'ng liotte I* continued to
to play. H-s luck turned, lie had
soon lost all it's winnings, and th mon
ey set apart for bis bridal presents. He
hsu broken the package of batik note-,
the money ha had received from his fa
ther tor tho pucliase of his commission,
and though ho srw till KW>pt
Sway before his eyes, he continued to
play, in the deepeiato hope of winning
back his io Bes. He rose nnd left th;;
room, the last wo ds ringing in his ear,
Jteing :
“ Make your game, gentlemen, while
the hall rolls.”
1), sparing and heart-s' ricken, the
young man fought his hotel nnd his
chamber. On the s'.nir cam he encoun
tered Mumdamo von IWl'ttgen, but he
saw her not —his even were giazod—lie
did not notice or return lief saimion.—■
II" threw himself upon his bed without
undressing, ami t< w -rd morning ho fell
into an unrefreshing mil dream-like
slumber.
When he rose Ute the next day he
looked at iiimself in tho glass, but scarce
ly recognized h’t own face, so changed
was lie by the mental agonies he had
uddorgone. When he had paid tome
i t ttlc attention to his toil- tto, ho receiv
ed a message- from Madame von R- rliu
gen, r«*]ui**'ing the favor of r,!, intci viow
in her apnrtment. He ane chaaically
. obcveil the summons, though ill-slued to
| vtis-nin a conversation with a lady.
The wi low nipte t, -1 him to ho icit
|ed.
“ Mr. Wash, in, ’’ said she, with e
| sm !e, "you are growing very nn.-nj
j lant. I met yon last night on the stair
I c ue, but though I spoke to you. you
! l ad oot » we'd r.r r, - o l f„ ; me.’’
•• l.ssl'u.piii, not over -d the
! unfortunate young man, *• I was beside
j myself. O, niadmiie if you knew oil.’’
” I do !’> replied the widow.
“ What that I had been gamhling—
tb t T had thruwn.away—yen, tlio-e ore
the words—i very ducat of the nmo- y
my poor Liber furnished m* with w'..i
to poehts" my eoino,is*!on.”
j “ Yes— I know all that. Rut tho
j loss is not Irreparable.'
j “ l’ordon mi, madam. My father
j thrugh r puled wealthy ; is unable In
| furnish me with a similar sum, even i( I
S w ore base enough to accept it at hi*
I hand-.”
I “ Rut if tomo friend was to step for
| wa-d?”
“ Alas I know none.’ 1
“ Mr.AVaLtein,’.'« oil the lady. “I
am rich ; a loan of the requisite amount
would not affect n»c in the lea*!.’’
“ O.i, madam.” cried the young man,
“ it you wou’d indeed save 111a hy such
generosity you would be un angel of
mercy.”
| “ What is tiic amount of your lorn ?”
I inquired tin.- lady calmly, as site unlock
| ed her derk.
1 “ Three tliousand ducats,’’answered
Earnest. “ Rut I can give yon no se
curity for the p yment.’’
“Your note of hand is sufficient, ’
said the lady, handing the young man a
> p ckage of notes. “ I’ieasu to count
j those, 1 nd see if tho money is correct.
Here are writing materials.”
| Earnest did as he was bid—counted
: the room y and then set down at the
i do.-k.
1 “ Write st my dictation,” said the
lady.
Earnest look up a pr.n and com
! menced.
“ The da'e,’’ said llic lady.
Earnert wrote it.
1 " It-ici ived of Anna Von Berlingen
i the sum of three thousand ducats.’’
E truest wrote and repeated—“ three
thousand ducats.’’
“ In consideration I promise to marry
the aforesaid Anna Von Harlingen.”
“ Ay—to marry you J” exclaimed
E'lrnrst.
“ Ay—to marry me P’ said the lady.
”Am I deformed —am I ugly—am I
pour ?”
“ I cannot do it—you know not the
reason that induces me to refute it.”
“ Then go home to your father and
confess your guilt.”
Earnest reflected a few moments. lie
could not go home to his father w ith
1 the frightful tale. I t was a question
between su.cide Vid marriage; lie
signed the paper.
“ Now then ha run,” said the widow
to herself’ ns she carefully sreurtd the
promise, “ you omnot sty that you
broke the heart of-Annie by vou* eru
cl’y. Take tin iconi y, Ernest,’ - .-lie
(tided al-iud, ‘‘go auil j)jrcli.4se your
commission.’’
Earnest o'.i-yc i» His d-oain- of yea
teri’hy tnorn’ng 'x ! boon disipatci by
Ins own net; he ft It a degraded and
broken spirited oriiniiwt. Ho had sold
himself for golii.

A Qi beh Witt.— \Yu have heard of

the will stands. Hotli broil er# lived to
return from the war, and the gillnnt
su’diir of dm Loot Cause being satisfied
that slavery was no more, generously

both are living happily together, and

Fob Consvmptuks.— Tho Philadel

c- iiipany which ]>roposcH to run regular
sto oners up tin- Amazon from Para, fur
a distance ol 2,500 milt s from its month,
that it wit) bo able to transport pngst ti

It will introduce travellers into some of
tho most magnificent scenery in the
woiiJ. Il bas been known to the na
tives ftom time immemorial, that a re-
moval of conMimplive patient*, even in
the stage of well-marked ulceration and
cavirica in the lungs, to the Valley cf
Janji, at a height of 10,000 ft-ct ah vo
tho sec, was followed by an almost in
variable suspension of too disease.—
This fact is corroborated by the expe
rience of physician* of Peru at the pres
ent time. From tho ctati-ties of Lima,
published in 1858, it appear* that near
ly eighty ptr cent, of the casts of con
sumption sent to tue Jjuj-i Valley arc
cured.
(Kr A drunken French soldier, quar
reling with his corporal, ended by say
ing, “ Hold yonr torgm ; you ate not a

replied tic corporal, getting aegry.—
“Never,’’ replied the soldier; "you
cinnot. What dot* tbe major any

and a corporal ? That shows that a

old lady of much experience ard obser
