It was on tlie eve oil ti eFt
tie *»| Solferino. The Franeli reg
imei.ts, which had arrived from
Milan during the day, by long
and dusty roads, under n I*oiling
‘ iin,(xbausted by fatigue, (vereen
camjicd on an inmienee plain,
shut in by a chain of hills, on
wnn hdoweitd the wbiie ’ houses

playing among the, lendeii-i'oloted
clouds, illiuniued at intervals with
lurffl light the ba tlefiei.) of the
morrow. Nsthing else lit up the
t amp. No tires were allowed, as
a measure of prudence.
Iti t.jo middle of a small group
of officers, who talked over the
chances of 10-morrow, was Col.
Eugene De Yalmont, whocorfiman
ded a regiment of light dtagoons
tie hud the well earned reputation
of being one of the mo* splendid
officers in his own branch of the
I service. Although a strict disci
plinarian, he was Floved in the
regiment by officers up d men alike
ana deservedly so.
Col. De Yalmont appeared to
pay but little attention to what
wms said. He seemed in a pro -
found reverie, as he bit rather
than smoked, a half consumed ci
gar. Turning suddenly to his
surgeon-major, a veteran with a
well bronzed face, he said :
“Brtsac, do yon believe in pre
entiments ?”
“It th pends, Colonel. One may
have th®m, no doubt; but to ad
mit that they are t\e,r realized is
amvhor matter."
7You look upon them *s value
less, devoid of any prophetic im
portance?"
‘•lgnite so.”
“All! It is true, as is said, that
.it yoA, ii, Jr tors are more or less
materialif ts.” After a p.vusc. ue
added : “A’ou are right-, perhaps
and so much the better. There
are some (lit lights which should
be 1 banished on die eve of a day
like what to-morrow promises to
be."
So saying be got up and added
•_T shall turn in and get some rest
and advise yon all to do the same
In a few hours we slial need all
the strength we can command ”
One by one the group broke oft'
and presently there was left only
three tfticeis—the major, a cap
tain and a sab-lieutenant.
“Wi at did the Colonel mean by
presentments ?” asked the young
er of them. “We know he has no
fan about tomorrow; yet his man
ut i and liis last words, to say the
least, are not reassuring.”
“Had you been longer in th®
regiment, young fellow.’’ replied
tl e major, "you w-ould know that
the Colonel periodically gets “the
blues;’ but we tak® no notice of
them. They soon pats, and lie
becomes himself again.’
“tut vliat is the < aitfce of his
recurring depression ?
"The cans*?’’ said the Captain
"Why, all th leg!meat knew the
cause. ”
“Except myself I only joined
(.three months ago."
- “Well, here is Brisac back iroiu
his rounds. He can toll the story
best.” 1
The Snrgeon-Major being »p
--penli (1 to. lay down upon the
gra.se, li; a cigar and said :
*‘Jli 1834, De Vahnont, appoint

Lawrencevilie Georgia, Tuesday Lflfcy 20. 1884
Ln Severiim, a danseuse a the
j theatre. In appearance she w
i decidedly handsome, of nn n'iv ■
colored complexion an t with c
| ven black hair. In her large ex
pressive eyes and in her firmly
rut mouth there *\ns a signigeant
indication of determination which
suggested that the young huh
would bo more desirable as a
friend than «s an enemy. She
said she was an Italian, having
been noin at Home; but her pa
res ts were Bohemians, who trav
eled through ail counties—rope
dnucers by profession.
“Nearly four years had passed
since Eugene’s return. We kepi
tip a constant correspondence,
and I learned of his nmrri ,gc and
the birth of one eon, whom he
called Lucieti. He com in’.ally
pressed me to exchange and go
back to France.
“In the afternoon of my arrival

sought him in vain. He seemed
to have been spirited away. Sin
called his l ame at the top of her
v ice, and ran tip and down the
beach until exhausted. Byst iud
ers who beard Iter cries helped
in the search : but they found
nothing.”
“Was Lucian drowned ?" a ked j

* “As to the Colonel, a’ first he
