THE CA.YALIER'S ESCAPE.
Tramp I tramp I went the roan,
Trap 1 trap I went the gray ;
But pad! pad! oat like a thing that was rna
My chestnut broke away --
It was just five miles from Salisbury Town,
And but one hour to -day.
Thud! thud 081810 .011 the heavy roan,
Rap 1 rap 1 the mottled gray;
But my chestnut mare was of bleed so rare,
That she showed them all the way -
Spur on! spur on !-I doffed my hat,
And wished them all good day.
They splashed through iniry rut and pool -
Splintered through fence and rail;
Bnt chestnut Kate ewitehed over the gate --
I saw them droop awl tail .
To Salisbury Town -but a mile of down,
Once over this brook and rail.
Trap ! trap 1 I heard their eelring hoofs
Past the wall s of mossy stone;
The roan flew on at a etaggeriug paoo,
But blood is better than bone.
I patted old Kate, and gave her the spur,
For I knew it was all My own.
But trample, trample, came their aseeds,
And I saw their wolf's eyea burn;
I felt like a royal hart at bay,
And made me ready to turn.
I looked where highest grew the May
And deepest arched the fern.
I flew at the first knave's sallow throat --
One blow and he was down;
The second, rogue fired twiee and missed;
I slieed the illaiu's crown.
Clove through the rest and flogged bravo Este,
Fast, fast to Salisbury Town I
Pad, pad, they came on the level sward,
Thud, thud, upou the sand;
With a gleam of swords, and a burning match,
And a shaking of flag and hand,
But one long hoend aud I passed the gate,
Safe from. the canting band.

'Yes, my husband,' she repeated soft-

how It happened ? You see, we lied
on the mountains, and my father was a
m
chaois hunter, and once saved the
Marchese'e life in the snow. After that
the Marchese never forgot us, but cause
back, year after year, generally living
in our house, because there were not
many hotels in the Engadine then. But
one year, when he came (it was only a
year ago), my father could not go out
with him because he was ill, and things
had gone badly with us, and we wore
very poor, because there were so, many
litSle ones at home now to be fed, mu

said, 'The Signor Marchese would do
well to go to the Kulm Hotel. He will
do better there than here.' But the Sig-
nor :Marchese would not go to the Kuhn
Hotel ; he would stay m•itti „ us. He
had something te say to re.y halter. And
this was what he said to my father.—
He had seen me grow up, and he want-
ed to marry me; and he promised. to
provide for tho little brothers, and give
portions to the little sisters, if only I
would do so. • But I must marry him
with a clean heart --that is, declare hon-
estly that 1 had never cared for any one
else. Su I made the declaration easily
enough, for 1 was only fifteen tnon, and
who else bouid I have seou to care for
in that way? And then my father
thanked me, and said I had made it
easy for him to die; aud the little
brothers and sistersdanced for joy, and
everybody seemed pleased except Cousin
Bortol. But the Marchese kept his
word, and gave him ,a pleas of 1011(1 for
a farm, and sent all the little ones to
good schools. And he was very kind to
me, snd carried me away tu a beautiful

She threw down her rake when she
saw me. A chorus of voices rose round
her.
• Oh, do not go yet, ben' signuota—
not just yet: You teach us hew to work.
You work yourself like all the angels.—
You see, signore,' (this was addressed
to me, confidentially, by an old fellow
in shirt sleeves and a velveteen waist-
coat,) the belle signuola comes from a
country where chestnuts are as scarce
as gold; so she knows how to value,
them.'
He was evidently chuckling to him-
self over the superiority of Lombardy
to Venetia.
But the bell' Signuola left her rake
lying on the grass.
'1 must go now, my friends,' she said
in tier pretty, slow, hesitating Italian.
And I may never be able to coma
again. Bat you will remember, will
you not, what I have told you about the
poor people who live on the mountaies,
and who would be glad. very often for a
handful of those very chestnuts which
you leave rotting en the ground?'
And then she walked away by my
side, just as if I had been sent out to
fetch her home.
' I could not help doing that for once,'
she said half apologeticalle to me. But
I may not be able to go again. He
might not like it, you know.'

It was a home thrust, was it not?

As we drove un the winding pine
woods to St. Moritz, a sound. of bridal
bells struck nCon our ears.
It's Ded appropriate greeting,' said I
sentimentally.
It is ne wedding,' said Pankrae, our
driver, looking back sulkily from bis
back seitt.The prettieat girl in the coun-
try side has married the ugliest man in
the world to -day.'
This was not flatteling if the names
were, what I suddenly expected they
were, and there was any reality in re-
semblance alluded to by the Marchese,
in her letter.
Is tho lady's narne F'rona, and' the
man's Bertol ? I asked.
Pankras nodded.
Ay, and such a one as Bertol to pre-
tend to the hand of our F'ronct, who
had been Married once before. to .a
palace by the, sea, and gave me pretty Marquis, you know. But, you see, a

and everything I fancied. But, do you
know, I was very wicked and ungrateful,
and after a while I grew tired of all
these beautiful things, and even of the
Itarchese's kidndness, too, sometimes ;
and I longed—oh 1 how I longed for a
sight of a mountain storm, or a cross
loot from Cousin Bertol. And then,
the ivlarchese's relations did not like me,
and called me a stupid little cantadina,
and so he took me Gravelling, and said
I had better not ten anybody exactly
who I had been. But—but, I could

here she stopped short sndclenlyeatifled,
as it were. by a burning brush.
Because --what ? I asked almost fierce-
ly., 1 had listened to every word she
had said, and it seemed bard to be
balked of two three more, and those,
perhaps, the most important of all.
But she flew past me like a flash of
light.' She ran across the garden path
into the hotel. A little line of veroni-
ca petals marked her track. I saw no
m.ore.
After all my interview with the Mar-
chese never earns off, I went to Stresa
that same afternoon. But, strange to
say, though returned to England
ahnost imineaitettay afterward, I was
never able to give Dr. Brook any lucid
information concerning the dinner at
the famous Iles Berromees.
One day in the follotving epring, as
I went into my club, a little packet was
put into ray hands. How it over

cid over by a variety of others. The.
seal had never been broken, how,3ver,
till I broke it, and found within the
packet a biggish box and a little letter.
I opened the latter first. It was writ-
ten in the stiff, childish hand I had
seen ()nee before, and was dated St,
Moritz, Christmas Day, 187—.
Illmo. Signore ---I send you. in my
husband's name, a small packet, con-
taining a token of his regard for the

On Saturday night, at Chelsea, near

John Nannery beat his wife with a pok-

fire to them, burning her about the body
in a most sickening manner. While
the poor woman's clothing was in

brute dogged her about the room by

A stiange story is reported from
Spain. A detachment of Alfonsist
soldiers recently discovered, in a seclud-
ed part of a mountain chin, a cavern,
which was inhabited by robbers, who
had taken advantage of the civil war in
order to ply their criminal. avocations.
An alcove was attached to (his subter-
ranean dwelling, the door of which the
soldiers broke open. They were aston-
ished to find the apartment so decently
furnished, and provided with books,
flowers, and even a piano. In an easy
chair sat a venerable old mau. Tbe
soldiers interrogated him, but obtained
only incoherent replies. It has been
ascertained, from the confession of one
of the robbees, that the old man was the
cashier of a banking firm at I3ourges ;

stolen the safe, and taken the cashier
with them, in hopes that he woual

and dangerous. He left the landing
at seven o'clock of au evening in Dec-
ember. The moon was shining bright-
