Munich. =
But, 1.-THE moment, when he was
about to crush him with a word, he
stopped at the sight of his daughter
fainting in a ca1eche:
"There is no longer d doubt"
thought the Gear; "'tis indeed he"
And, turning his back on the stupe-
fed stranger, he returned with Marie
to the Imperial Palace
For six weeks, all that prudence,
tempered with love and severity, could
inspire, was essayed to destroy the
image of the Colonel in the heart of
the princess. At the end of the first
week, she was resigned; at the end Of
second, she wept; at the end of the
third, she wept in public; at the end
of the fourth, she wished to sacrifice
herself to her father; at the end of the
fifth, she fell sick; at the end ofethe
sixth, she was dying.
Meanwhile, the Colonel, seeing him
self in disgrace at the court of his host;
without daring to confess to himself
the cause, did not wait for his dismissal
to return to his regiment. He was on
the. point Of setting out for Munich,
when an aid-de-camp of the Gear came
for him.
''I should have set out yesterday"
he said to himself; "I might have
avoided what awaits me. At the first
fash, save yourself from the thunder
bolt .
The bolt in reserve for him was the
following: He was ushered into the
cabinet, where kings only are allowed
to enter. The Emperor was pale, and
his eye was moist; but his air was firm
and resOlute. 5..d s7e
"Golonel Duke" said he, enyeloping
and penetrating him with his glance,
''yod are one of the handsomest officers
in Europe. It is said, also,i and I
believe it true, that you possess an
elevated unind--a thorough education,
a lively taste for the arts, noble
heart, and loyal character. What
think you upof the Grand Duchess, my
: Daughter, Marie Nicolcewna!
This point bland question dazzled
the young man. It is time to say that
he admired, adored, the princess, with
out being fully aMare Of it. A simple
mortal adores an angel of Paradise,
as an artists adores theideaI Of beauty
''The Princess Marie, sire!o exelaim-

without daring to read thatof the Czar;

you what I think of her, and / should
die of joy if you permitted me to say
it." .EAs1ET9 =.
"You love her; It's well, p resumed
