This was furnished in royal style. The train moved out through a country, that was of unsurpassable loveliness. The hills and the mountains w« re covered with verdure from base to summit. Lordly palaces reared their turrets and strong castles their battlements above the orange and the palm groves. There were no large towns, but nu merous costly residences, and at inter vals of every few miles, villages, the houses of which were small, con structed of mud and sticks and the roofs thatched. Beecher asked nu merous questions. Dives told him that the castles, palaces, chateaus, villas aud other large and flue residences belong to bis majesty’s creditors. Formerly the land was parceled out among the people. But the celestial powers made war upon his majesty and lie was obliged to raise mom y to car y it on.

He paid no attention to the bouquets, verses, letters and attentions of tbe fair one, which tnrnel her small stock of reason into madness. The papers published the lale, and the actor first knew of the girl’s insane devotion. He visited her daily in the hospital, as his presence seemed to do her good, always bringing a lady with him, whom tbe poor girl learned to love as a sister. For some weeks Solymossy continued big visits alone, and when his companion again appeared she was paler than was her wont and carried a bundle of baby-hood. The patient who had been sinking rapidly, took tbe babe in her arms and, with a msailing glance at the mother, whispered, “ II.s child,” and was dead. /GEORGIA,!
