at precisely the age when our enjoy

ing his ow schemes of pleasure in

Several times / had met Carlota in

Benito watched US closely made our
interviews short and stolen. She
had told me all her history; how she
had been aflianced by her parents tc
her cousin when both were children:
how time had revealed to her the
dark and unloveable traits of his
character; how with many tears she
had made up her mind to the sacri.
fee; how love for the memory Of be-
dead parents had induced her to dt
so. ButIshe said she had now de
terrnined that no power should fore
her to it. She did not, and coult
not love him. I pressed her timidl,
to say whether she loved anotnel
but either she was unwilling to speak

poses to build d st eamship or steam
boat on a new plan, on certain con-
Hitions, which will be the fastest in
the world. If he fails, he says he

her to run distance of one hun
dred miles a day further than any
other vessel. He also offers to build
a steamboat which will run to Albany
in five hours, under the same forfeit

S156,000, and give the parties who
pay it, the priv vilege of using his
discoveries and taking the vessels he
may build at their cost prices.

The. m pom was shining brightly
Upon the battle-plain;
The ge4 4tle breeze famed lightly
The features OF The slain.
The gu hs had hushed their thunder
The drums in silence lay,
When tame Senorita,
The Maid Of Monterey.
She cas- look of anguish
On dying and on dead;
Her lar !, she made pillow,
For those who groaned and blod.
And when the dying soldier
For one bright gleam did pray,
;. lie blessed the Senorila,
The Maid of Monterey.
She gave tho thirsty waler
And dress$d The bleeding wound;
And gentle prayers she uttered,
For those who sighed around.
And when the bugIe sounded,
jus, al ,he break Of day,
We blessed the Senofi'a,
The Maid Of Monterey
And though she loved herlna'iOn'
Apd prayed that it might live;
Yetfor the dying foeman,
She had a tear 10 give.
Then we'll love thai brigai beauty
.Who drove deaths pang away,
The meek-eyed SenOrita'

The following from the. publisher
will convey an idea of its contents:
"This pamphlet viii be found Of
great pecuniary value to all who sup
pose themselves to be claimants to
this estate; for it will, first show to a
large number that they have no pos
sible claim to the property, and in SO
doing will save such individuals hun
dreds and perhaps thousands of dol
lars, which but for its publication they
might spend in reaching the result it
affords ia their cases.
"Secondly. The whole preliminary
investigation that a successful claim
ant would be required to make, in or
der to justify further outlay Of time,
labor, and money, is here done to his
hands. A mass Of information that
has cost thousands of dollars, and
many months in labor, is here made
ready to his hands for the price Of
this pamphlet, CHARLES CIsT."
