THE SLICE OF MArAMoRAs We have REPORTS
that the fighting had continued for more than
a week. The headquarters of Gen Avalos
were at the Plaza, where he had eight or nine
pieces Of artillery SO disposed as to cover each
other. The revolutionary leader, Carvaial,
had but single piece and was doubtless fight
ing his way from house to house. IF Carya-
jail had IL or Is FOUNDER, he would capture
Avalos's whole force in two hours. A decided
movement was at hand at the departure of the
Fanny. At the outset Of the hostilities Gen.
Avalos called on the National Guard and all
the citizens to turn out for the common defence
which was refused, He next issued a procla.
nation. reducing the duties on "Mantas" 3
cents per yard witch so aroused the people that
they turned out in full force to his aid lii
supposed that Carvajal could lave taken the
place in a few hours but his object was to save
the citizens and property. A letter from
Brownsville describes the excitement as intense
and business was suspended.

Iyoungest-the same who tore up the sentence
raises his hand to his schako, and addresses his
chief:
Welcome, Captain! You come at the right
moment to accompany us to Hungary Short
time is there for deiberation. Decide quickly.
We will seize your horses bride, and take you
with us by force. Well do we know that you
come willingly; but 50 will you avoid disgrace,
should defeat be our lot. You must with us by
force If we succeed, yours the glory; if we
fail the guilt is ours, since we compel you. Play
your part Defend yourself! Cut one or two
of us from our saddles-the first who lays hand
on your reins; see, l graspit Strike, Captain,
and with will 20
He did as he said and seized the horses bri-
die; whilst on the other side an old sergeant
laid hand on its NAME The horse stirred not
The Captain gazed hard at them each in
turn; but he raised not his sabre to strike
Behind him his forsaken bride, before him tn,
mountain frontier of his native land On til,
one heaven of love and happiness on tho
other, glory and his country's cause: two
mighty passions striving against each other
with giants force. The fierce conflict went
nigh to overpower him; his head sank upon his
breast. Suddenly blared the trumpets in rear
OF the squadron at the martial sound his eager
war-horse bounded beneath him. With awak-
| cning enthusiasm the rider raised his head and
waved his sabre.
Forward them" he cried Gin God 8 name''
And forward he sprang into the river, the
two hussars by his side; the cloven water plash-
ing IN pearls around their heads.
Forward forward to the blue mountains
In lengthening columns, the hussars followed
across the stream-the horses bravely breasting
the flood, the bold riders singing their wild
Magyar dltty. But dark and gloomy was their
leaders brow, for each step led him farther from
happiness and his bride.
In the midst Of the troop rode George of st.
Thomas, in his hand the banner of Hungary
His cheek glowed, his eye flashed; each step
brought him nearer to revenge.
The troubled stream is once more stilled, the
fir-wood receives the fugitives, their horses
tramp dies away in the darkness. Here and
there, from the distant mountains, the herds
mans horn resounds, on their fanks the shep-
herds fire CLEANS like blood-red star
Forward, forward
Back to thy lair, bloodthirsty monster, back
and sleep.
Let the forestgrass grow over the ensan-
guined plain.
How much is destroyed how much has passed
| away.
How many good men, who were here are
here no longer; and how many who remain
would grieve but little if they, too, were mum
bered with the dead
The hero of battles is once more a robber and
fugitive. The iron hand of the law drives
him from lands end to lands end.
| In the mad-honse mopes a captain of hussars,
and ever repeats WAIT But A MOMENT"
None there can guess the meaning of his words
Only George of st. Thomas is happy. He
sleeps in a welcome grave, dreaming of sweet
renown and deep revenge.
