His hosts he led through Alpine SHOWS =
Der Moscow's towers, that shook the while,
His eagle flag unrolled,-an froze.
Here sleeps he now, alone not one
OF all the kings whose crowns he gave,
Nor sire, nor brother, wife, nor son,
Hath ever seen or sought his grave.
Here sleeps he now, alone the star,
That led him on from crown to crown,
Hath sunk; the nations from afar
Gazed, as it faded and went down.
He sleeps alone; the mountain cloud
That night hangs round him, and the breath
Ofmorning scattcrs is the shroud
That wraps his martial form in death.
High is his couch the o,ean food
Far, far below by storms is curled,
AS round him hcavcd, while high he stood

EN-, one Of the most celebrated of his
compositions. Many fanciful tales have
been written by the imaginative Ger
mans founded on this circumstances
The following sketch is from the last
number of the MUSICAL Magazine:
ilozart'S Last Moments.
The composer threw himself back on
his couch, faint and exhausted. His
countenance was pale and ematated, yet
there was strange fire in his eye, and
the light of JOY on his brow, that told OF
success. His task was finished, and the
melody, even to his exquisite sensibillty,
was perfect. 1t had occupied him for
weeks; and though his form was wasting
by disease, yet the spirit seemed to ac-
quire more vigor, and already claim kind
red to Immortality for oft, as the sound
of his own composition stole on his own
ear, it bore an unearthly sweetness, that
was to him, too truly warning of his
future and fast comming doom. Now it
was HIliSllcu, anu loi tHc hiSt uihC, III
many weeks, he sank into quiet and
refreshing slumbcr.-The apartment in
which he lay was large and well lighted
by window, in small recess, that open
ed to the east: near it his couch was
placed a table for writing, at his feet -
and Just before him, his favorite, inseper-
able piano.-The window was shaded by
a curtain of crimson damask, and as the
sun, (Which had scarcely attained its me-
ridian,) stole through it, there was rich
glow cast upon the object. One beam
fell upon the head of the composer, and
then passed, appearing to say, Like this
shall your day of life be; bright and glor.
ious but even so shall it vanish and pass
away, though shining in noontide spen.
DOR" A slight noise in the apartment,
awoke him, when turning towards fair
young girl who entered, "Emilne, my
daughter" said he, "come near mc--my
task is over-the requiem is finished
My requiem" he added, and a sigh esca'
ped him, as present fame and future glory
passed in vivid succession through his
mind, and the idea, how soon he mus
leave it all, seemed, for moment, toe
hard to endure. "Oh say not so, my

know not whence the duelIist came.
He seems to have been hanging for a
number of years about the villages on the
frontier, living by his wits as a card-play-
er and land Spectator. He was proud
overbearing and malicious and had be-
come doubly arrogant and assuming since
he had been victorious in no less thar
three duels. Once he had crippled, and
twice he had killed his man making by
these exploits two wives widows and five
children fatherless. Such was his fame
as a duellist, that it was thought to be
little less than suicide, for any man no
perfectly expert with the pistol to NEE
