pT GEORGE D. PRENTICE.
Those burning stars, what arc thcy2 I have dream
That they were blossoms on the Tree of Life, fed
Or glory fung back from the outspread wings
Of God S arahangel-or that yon blue skies,
With all their gorgeous blazonry Of gems
Were bright banner waving DER the earth
From the fair wall Of He1veni-And have sat
And drank their gushing glory. till felt
Their fash Of electric trembling with the deep
And strong vibrations down the living wire
Of chaness passion-and my every pulse
Was beating high as If n spring we're there
To buoy me up where might ever
Mid the unfath oTncd vastness of the sky.
And dwell with those high stars and sec the light
Pouring down upon the blessed earth, like dew
From tne bright urns Of Naiads.
Beautiful stars
What arc ye? There is in my heart of hearts.
A fo1nt that heaves beneath you. like the deep
Beneath the gIories of a midnight moon.
And iis.--your Eden tones are floating now
Around me like clement-so low,
So wildly beautiful. I almost dream
That We there the living harp of God,
Der which the incense winds of Eden stray,
And wake such tones of mystic miBstrelsy
As well might wander down to the dim world
To fashion dreams of Heaven Peal on-pcal on,
Nature high anthem For ry life has caught
And seeus but sweet and glorious tone
Or Wild star music!
Blessed. blessed things,
i. are in Heaven and on earth Ny soul,
Even with the whirlwind's rush wander on
To your immortal realm. but itmnst fall
Like your ancicnt Placid from its height,
To dim It's new clad glories in the dust!
The earth is beautiful love
It's wilderness of spring flowers IFS bright clouds
The majesty Of mountains. and the dread
AagniGeencc OF ocean-for they come
Like visions to ny heart-but when [ look
On yon unfadin. lovclness, feel
Like = lost infant gazing its homo,
And weep TO die. and came where You reposc
Upon your boundless Heaven, like parted souls
On an eternity of blossedness.

CHAPTER XVIII.


For Al hour or more, the seats have been
rapidly filing up with persons OF ali ages, sex
es and cldsscs; and it is now filed TO its ut
most capacity. The Emperor, with his mag
istrates have entered, and occupy the project
lag platform, all dressed in the richest regalia
Of Office. The Emperor is seated forward on
the front ofthe platform, conspicuously, and
from which bis eye can sweep around the en-
tire arena. He is looking somewhat better
than he did Yesterday in the Foran1. But he
still has with him the bleary eyes, and the old
grin, and the long, yellow teeth. Then, it is
easy to see from his quick movements, and
the restlessness of the thousands around
him, that some scene of more than ordinary
attraction has drawn them together, and that
they are awaiting its opening with anxious in
tercst
Suddenly, the entrance door into the arena
is thrown open. Every eye is directed to-
wards it. The Emperor leans forward on his
seat, grins, aud shows his teeth. Two of his
guard enter. Between them is tail, portly
man, with long, loose robe thrown over
him, and conceaiing from view his entire per-
son. They advance slowly TO the centre OF
tue arena. Here they stop; when one of the
guard, quickly catching hold of the loose
outside robe, snatches it away; and before the
immense assembiage, stands the man whose
fate has brought them together.
The reader need hardly be told who this
man is. It is enough to say, that his head
and hands are still bandaged and that over
his manly and dignifed person Sill hangs
the black gown, with Its torn and tattered
skirts.
Now look at him. Poor man! his face is
spotted with blood and is quite pale and
blauched witt, suffering. Bat there he stInds,
firm and unmoved, while no is casting his eyes
around the vast concourse of bis follow citi=
zens, with an earnest, benevolent, forgiving
look.
Then, with clear, loud, distinct voice. he
says; sstiod bless you ail-fareseli;'' and
raising his hand, with q smile, points TO the
skies
Nov he is knelt down. His eyes are turned
mp towards heaven, his hands are Joined across
his breast, and his lips are moving inaudibly
His countenance is every moment more and
more Frightening; it is all shining and
lustroJs and thousands of eyes are gazing, in
establishment. and even terror.
The two soldiers had quickly left the arena
and have securely. barred and boltcd the door
behind them. At the same. time, the keepers
sprung on the tops of the dens or or cage
which enclosed the wild beasts, with sort OF
club or wooden n,allet in their hands. There
they stand with their ewes set uDon the En-
psror. awaiting the signal TO strike the blow.
