III gave you my word," was her brief

81 gave you my word," was her brief
reply.
"What shall do with her 7" inquired
the General, addressing himself to the
soldier.
"Mark her my wife-the wifs Of q
soldier she is born for il Well. what
say you my child 7" added he, turning to
Catherine, who seemed quite lost and
bcwi|dercd.
81 say" rcplicd she hcs.ating. "my
choice is not difficult; | would rather
DO tho wife Of soldier than the slave OF
a General !
"Bavo! Catherine ! from this mo.
mcnt you belong TO me-"
The soldier arose, and reckoning to
Catherine TO follow him, he left the tent.
"Do you know who am, Catharine p
said he, ns they walked away together.
"No; but then you said you wished to
be my husband"
"Truc; but do you know my rank in
the army"
"Itmatlers not" said Catherine; "you
cannot suppose am proud-a child
without family, without name"
"You are content, then, 10 like your
destiny with mine :" taking her by tho
hand.
ayes" answered Catherine, 81 like
you because you have been kind TO me,
poor child that | am"
The soldier stopped before tent more
elevated than the rest. "This is the ten,
Of the Czar," said he "you remain
where you are. 1t is but right that
should ask his PERMISSION 10 marry
you"
Catherine waited but few minute,
before young officer advancing said
"The Czar wishes TO see YOU"
On entering the ten, she saw a large
number OF officers, in the centre o. whom
she Immediately recognized the youns
soldier, her companion. "Where is tht
Czar!" inquired Catherine of the youns
officer.
There" said he, pointing TO the sol
dier who was seated.
"There {! That is my husband !"
"He is thy husband and the Gear like
wise, Catherine" said the Emperor o
Russia. "How astonished you appear
Does the news grieve you? Does my ii
tie prevent you from loving me?"
"'I loved you as soldier" sail she
81 will also love you as an Emperor.
The Czar arose, and taking the hand @
tho young orphan, presented her TO hi
officers as the future Empress of Russia
Here closes the thread Of affection il
our story. After their marriage, the En-
peror placed her in private dwellin
in the city Of Moscow, where she receiv
ed every attention bee oming her posi
ton. She was lovely and beautiful
She loved to do good, and to make 9th
erO around her happy. No doubt Pete
the Great saw that she was precisely III
woman who could share his enthusiasm
and sympa,hize in his plans. The oh
security Of her birth was no obstacle t
him; he had absolute power to raise he
to the lofiiest condition in his Empire.

PRIESTCRAFT.

Behold yon sterile spot,
Where now the wandering Arabs tent
Flaps in the desert blast
There once old Salems happy fame
Reared high TO heaven its thousand golden
domes,
And in the blushng face Of day
Exposed its shameful glory.
oh! many a widow, many an orphan cursed
The building Of that fame; and many father
Worn out with toll and slavery, lmplored
The moor mans God to sweep it from the earth,
And spare his children the dctested TASK
or piliug stone on stone, and poisoning
The choicest days Of life,
To soothe dOtau IS vanity
There on inhuman and uncultured raoc
Yiowicd hideous praises to their Demon. God;
They rushed to war, tore from the mothefs
womb
The unborn child-oid age and infancy
Prom scuous peIshed; their victorious arms
L.fl not soul to breathe. Oh they were
fcnds;
Bat what was he that taught them that the God
f9f nature and bemevclence had given
a special sanction TO the trade Of blond!
His n"ine and theirs are fading, and the tales
or this barbarian nation, which impnsture
Recites till terror credits, are pursuing
Itself int forge tfulness.
Where Athens, Rome, and Sp1sta stood,
There is a moral desert now,
The mean and miserable huts,
The yet more wretchcd palaces,
Contrasted with those ancient lanes,
Now crunb!iig to oblivion
The long and lonely colonades,
Through which the ghost OF Freedom stalk
Seem like we'll known tune,
Which, i'll some dear scene we have loved tt
hear,
Remembered now in sadness.
but, oh! how much more changed,
How gloomcr is the contrast
or human nature there!
Where SOCRATES expired, tyrants slave,
A coward and FOOT spreads death around
Then, sbuddering, meets his own.
Where ClcERo and ANToNINUs lived,
A cowled and hypocritical monk
Prays, curses, and deceives.

The letter is du,<d Hong Kong, March :!
" NV own impressions are, though it il

What gives more Importance 10 the opinion
Of the writer is the fact that he went ont as
chief executive officer Of the Porpoisc, and
was transferred 10 he Yincennes. 4 suspi-
cion entertained in such quarter is worthy
of attention, and we are glad to learn that
the subject will be brought to the attention
of the Navy Department. 1t is singular that
no effort has been made u asceItai the fate
