The dauciug still coutinued in the saloon. Numerous couplers stepped gracefully in the gar bolero or the spirited fandango, strikin at iotervala their Ingbt castanets. Julih; feeling fatigued, had lef the dancers and was looking out on the night. The perfumed breeze tubed her cheek', which were flushed by some powerful emo tion. It was plain that, under • mask of gaiety, else was a prey to • bitter sorrow. - Her lip. trembled and her eyes were fixed on vacancy. But she was not ailuwe4 long to remain alone ; Don Rinaldo joined her, with hu countenance besmiu with happiuess.- Taking bet hand,be for the first time ventured to ,peak of lova ; for Donna Isabella. tearing that her daughter might betray her feelings, els never allowed ber to be alone with her lover. Hie m iniunete words were listened to m silence by Julia, but touud no echo w her heart. All mu silence ink the grounds ; the moon poured a flood of light over the whole scene ; the night ;s r. so calm that scarcely . breeze stirred thee night leaves. Julia trem- bled with emotion. " Ou such • night u this," she murmured, "Loteozo'pledp•ed hu vows to me in tbe palm grove, and received mine in return.

These tender expressions ooly ineroaeed her distress ; but at that 'uument • shadow prated the window,aed a whining voice cried °0t, "Charity, good lady, for a poor Chris• tianl" Julia, knowing"his voice, and sus- pecting 1, s errand, appeared ready to faint '• That miserable wretch .has frightened lou," said Don ltinaldo, thinking the beggar had alarmed her.

The beggar now approached nearer, and again repeated his vuciferations.- Leaning over the balcony, as if to give him money, Julia received the letter ; then retiring • iittle apart, she read the tuhlowing words :- two ierdicants of Valencia.

It was brilliantly illuminated p lead from the wtudows, which were all open, wide the Venetian blinds drawn up, came seeds of joyous music. 1'he mauuon,which rose dst • wilderness of verdure, was sar- by lovely gardens, tilled with • pro- f of lowers, and beds of orange, citron, Ile' other oriental trees : • broad avenue, bordered by shrubs terminated in a grove of palm, forming a shady retreat from the heat of the day. These charming grounds, which were only separated from the water by • low laurel hedge, were profusely oroameuted with statues, fout$aln., end cool grottos. drading t1Ab door open, Pedro, the beggar, ventured to eater, and, creeping along the kedge, which was some distance from the hour, stopped where he had a full view of the interior of the large and magnificent saloon from which the errands of revelry pro- ceeded. The walls of this superb apartment were tapestried with garlands of beautiful blossoms, and the reelection of countless wax tapers threw a softened light over &numerous and fashionable assemble , dressed jn the corace of the time of Philip IY. Among the ladies, there were many of great beauty, with tall and elegant forts, dark flashing eyes, trod tboir fine glossy hair sparkling with jewels. But there wu one yo .ng girl among them whose beasty was so remarkable, that the whole company pronounced her the queen of the fete. Duuna Julia was the dao hter of Donna isabella lel Marcos,. widow lady, who, having been left with three daughters ad a fortune, had sacrificed ber two eldest children by forcing them to the veil. The )wngest had bgpo sought in marriage b Don Rinaldo de Guzman, a young cavalier of good family and fortune ; . d ber proud and am- bitious mother, without co ulung her daugh- tr's inclinations, had accepted this brilliant offer. The festival of this night was in honor of their bridal, and the ceremony was to be performed by midnight. Julia looked eery lovely in her wedding dress, which eau enurely of white., Her hair was confined by a superb band of diamonds, •ad • snowy veil, [Ment to the back of her trot, added to the grace of her appearance. In no part of Spain are the women more cele- brated for their beaus than in Valencia ; and the softness- and salubrity of the climate is *apposed to ezert • powerful influence on their persons. Along the whole extent of the villa ran • broad do.e terrace,trellissd over with orange, jasmine, and other beautiful trees. A spark. Zang fountain rose in the middle, whose clear lad refreshing water kept thin charming spot always cool ad pleasant. As Pedro, Tying at hu ease on the rich verdure, contemplated the brilliant scene before him, • voice near him whispered, "Comrade, what brings yoi bete r' "I might rip. by asking you the same geestion," rephoed l'edro to Diego, the new.

" flood,'' avid Pedro, " i am ready." The soft serenity of the night, the purity of the heavens, studded with a thousand stars, gin a charm to this romantic spot, which was not unfelt by the mendicants, and, under its ineeence, Diego begun his story.
