The gracious | enquirj of the Duke respecting his wants, he ' was answered that the whole con j merited with, a eondor, that took ! est part of the flocks, and even maimed oxen j at the plow. The.bird had a nest somewhere : and young ones, and when these were grown, i children, and perhaps men and women, would j not be safe from its rapacity. ! “ Take compassion upon us, gracious lord,’’ i prayed the herdsman, “command your sodiers to slay the condor and destroy its nest.” “ Where has the bird its eyrie?’’ asl Duke. “ I know not,” answered the herdsman, “but, met Dinks, it is beneath the Rahlenberg.” The Duke gave immediate orders that the bird of prey should be hunted and killed with its young. The whole country was in motion; the knights were eager to fulfil their lords chase start.” “Father. I fear them not. for the Duke's proclamation said not, whoever of nobse hJocd shall slay the condor. I know not if this was meant or an inadvertency, but upon this I am resolved.” And Schaffhold went forth with his staff and ax to hunt the bird of prey. Ail the morning he wandered in the forest. At noon, wearied, but determined not to yield to fatigue, he climbed the loftiest tree that he could find, and which commanded a view of the country. The day had hitherto been beautiful, bui Schaffhold deceried a dark spot in the distant horizon which betokened the coming storm. Suddenly, a dark speck, so distant that it seemed but a moat dashing over the straining eye, caught his attention. IIi3 heart bounded a , within bis breast. Tne speck grew larger, he ry was tor- i clasped bis hands in an ecstacy of joy. It was r the great-: the condor! Soaring a height immeasurably. it still grew nearer. Schaffhold hid himself in the foliage of the tr-e, and watched the flight of the majestic bird. Of the condor, it is said, that it will remain fur days upon the wing, and never light upon the earth, save for food. Rapidly it came on, floating calmly in mid-air; his eyes followed its flight, which ; was now directed toward a lofty and inacces- ed the sibie rock, on the summit of which was an aged i tree, which, doubtless, contained the uest oi the condor. Descending from his elevated situation, he ! crossed tire valley, and forced his passage 1 tiirough the thick and interwoven boughs and wood of the forest. But the storm which had threatened had now begun, but on he pressed: Sergeant Bates Refused Admission to the Capitol--His own Account of the j Affair, Rates of Advertising.
