Sprineing from their h~iding-place, they
surrounded Inez. Gonzalyo seized her,
| and placing his brawny hand over her
mouth TO smother her screams, fled with
her to the cave. The others, after bind
ing the woman .'hand and foot" followed
Her cries soon brought people TO her as
~sistance; but before she could relate tne
cause of the disaster, the robbers were
| safe and the idol Of Genoa was gone.
Whom Incz awokc from the swoon INTO
which she had fallen, she found herself
an inmate of the bandits den. With a
slight CRY, she fell, fainting, into the arms
of The robber, which were extended to
receive her. M~otioning his fellows away,
he threw a silken robe over his armor, so
that the sight of it might not tcrrify her.
When she recovered, gazing wildly a
round, she exclaimed
allow came | here, and who are you?''
sPeace, lady, and you shall know. |
am the Robber ChieI."
At that dread name, a strange fear came
TO her heart, and she trembled, she scarce
knew why. The Chief sank on his
knee before her, and taking her hand,
would have spoken, but Indignantly snatch
ing it from his grasp, she exclaimed
sBase-born caitifr, release me, and dare
not touch even the hem of the robe oil a
high-born and spotless maiden in your
polluted grasp" !.
"Lady," and the head of the Brigand
Chief sank upon his knee, and tears, the
first he had shed for long years before,
gushed from his eyes-"Lady, am not
base-born. Listen, and pity me, if you
can. | am a woman!'
Inez started back; horror and amaze
ment were depicted on her c%ountenance
as she gazed upon the erring one; but as
she looked, the turban and mask fell of,
and the long ringlets fell around a neck
as fair as ivory, and the blue veins stood
out on the marble-like forehead, and
wreathing her hand amongst the silken
ringlets. she began her tale.

cent excitement, and by her side is the
female Robber Chief. A knock is heard
at the door, and the servant announces the
Count Buvendano. The Russian glided
behind the curtain of the window, while
Inez went forward to meet him. He
would have embraced her, but she mo-
toned him back, and drawing her proud
form to its fullest height, she said
"There are but few words to pass be-
tween us, and then We part forever. The
reason whyl There is one here who will

you; suffice it 10 say, | love you no lon-
ger. Here, she continued, handing him
a box, "are the presents and letters you
layished OH me so freely. They are
worthless. FAREWELL
He would have spoken, but he could
not. A film came over his eyes, and he
would have tainted; but at this moment
the infatuated Adelaide appeared. Fear
and horror restored him to consciousness.
Starting up, he exclaimed
"Do | see Alright? Can the grave give

air no longer by your presence. CO."
He obeyed, and, leaving the house, he
returned TO his lodgings. In the morning
he arose an numbled, but a better man.
He left the city for America, and It's hoped
that he reformed. Much had he to re-
pent of. much to deplore. The Lady
Inez never welded, and the poor of Ge-
noa bless the name of the Lady Inez de
Castro. The Countess died soon after,
for a broken heart was her portion; and
why should she live!

Benjamin Phelps-Dear Sir: | take
great pleasure in communicating to you
what | consider an extraordinary cure
effected on my daughter, about III years
of age, by Wistar's Balsam of Wild
Cherry. Abont the first Of September
last, my daughter was taken sick, and
attended by several physicians, whose
prescriptions were Intellectual, or seemed
10 do no good. She was attended with
a constant cough and pain in the breast.
Her physicians and all who seen her,
came to the conclusion that she was in a
confirmed stage of Consumption. Imade
no other calculation than for her 10 die.
But as she commenced taking the Balsam
she began 10 improve, and continued so
until her health was restored, and is now
entirely well. With a view Of bene6ting
those who may be similarly afflicted, |
take pleasure in recommending this med
icine TO the confidence Of The public.
Yours, with respect.
