DAILY EVENING STAR.
MY COUNTRY,

There is name whose secret spell
My heart with rapturous joy can swell,
Allied to joy divine;
Or blind my eyes with gushing tears,
And fill my anxious soul with fears
My country, it is thine
The essence of all tender names,
The fire that lights all holy flames
In that one name is found.
The loves of parent, brother, friend,
And childhood's home, all sweetly blend,
In that melodious sound!
Its glory is my highest pride,
Its darkest shame fain would hide,
Or wash with tears away!
The brightest hope of future years
Around that glorious name appears
My country's name for aye!
The love that kindles at the sound
No selfish narrow limits bound,
Whene'er that name / call;
own no PART, / love the best
No north, no soatth, no east, no acest,
My country, ALL IN ALL!

A TALE OF THE CRUSADERS,
BY SIDNEY GREY.

"There is one yet with whose name am
unacquainted, continued the lady, "but to
whom ain also grateful for his timely
aid.'' This she said, addressing the knight
who had arrived last upon the field.
''Lady,' he answered, "my only title for
the pressnt is that of the Unknown. 1 am
happy if my arms have rendered you any
assistance.
''Sir knights continued she, ''if it is not
taxing your kindness too far, l will ask you
to escort me to the castle Of nay uncle, the
Earl de Villiers, who l am sure will be
happy to welcome YOU"
'Has the brave earl then returned from
Palestine - asked the Unknown Knight.
"You mistake me, sir knight" answered
Emile de Wilberton, sadly. ''He to whom
you refer was my father, who lost his life
while fighting against the Infdels. The
present earl is my uncle"
De Esteryille, who had been conversing
apart for a few minutes with Sir Guy Court
ney, now approached, and addressing Lady
Emile, said:
cit will give my friend and myself sim
cere pleasure, lady, to place you safely un-
der the care of your uncle as soon as it is
your pleasure, we are ready"
''Let us hasten forward, then, Sir Hen
ry de Esterville," she said, cor we shall ar
rive late at the castle.''
"My duty calls me in another direction,
lady," said the Unknown, "else it would
give me much pleasure to accompany you;
but leave you with those who will protect
you. We may meet again at time 1 may
have name. Until then, adieu.'
"Adieu, sir knight. Take with you the
warmest feelings of gratitude from the heart
of enc to whom you have rendered signal
service" She extended her gloved hand to
him. lie took it, and raising the lower por-
tion Of his visor, for the first time, respect
fully kissed it; then wheeling his charger
to the side of Sir Guy Courtney, he spoke to
him, and the two rode off together to short
distance, where they remained for some time
in earnest conversation; Sir Guy then re-
turned to the party, while the Unknown,
waving an adieu, rode rapidly off in an op-
posite direction; those whom he had left
were soon on their way to Villiers Castle.
Viliers Castle, as Lady Emile Wilberton
said, was now in possession of younger
brother of the house of De Villiers. The
elder, having become imbued with the chiv-
alrous spirit of the Crusaders, had Joined
the force raised by Richard for the eastern
expedition, intrusting to his brother the
guardianship of his only child, girl of
about sixteen years of age, and also the
management of his large estates. From
time to time, for two years, news was regu-
larly received in England from the earl, but
suddenly all trace of him disappeared, until
