BAGGING THE GAsE.-Two gentlemen Of
high birth, one a Spaniard and the other
German, having rendered Maximilian IL
many great services, they each, for recompense
demanded his natural daughter, Helena, in
marriage. The prince, who entertained equal
respect for them both, could not give the pre-
ference; and, after much delay, he told them,
that from the claim they both had 10 his at
tention and regard, he could not give his
assent for either to marry his daughter, and
the might decide it by their own power and
address; but, as he did not wish TO Iisk tho
loss of either, or both, by suffering them TO
hight with offensive weapons, he had ordsred
bag to be brought, and he who was success
tul enough TO put his rival in it, should ebtain
his daughter. This strange combat BET .een
two gentlemen, was in the presence of the
whole court, and lasted nearly an hour. At
length the Spaniard yield, and the German,
Baron of Talbert, when he had him in the bag
took him on his back, and placed him at the
Emperor's feet. The following day he married
the beautiful Helena.
