CHAPTER ".

The Baron of Wildenburg, on fading
that his daughter did not return to the
villa, had every search made for her, but
the donestics came back without having
received any intelligence OF their object.
The old man lett his mansion in despair,
and, with few of his servants, examin-
ed every nook in the neighborhood of the
villa. Boats wore ssnt upon the lake to
search for her hsdy, in case she had been
drowned, but all his efforts were of no
avail no trace could be discovered Of
the unfortunate Blanca, and the father
gave himselfu up to the bittsrest grief
At times he suspected WiIfred of having

CHAPTER Y.

Blanca, though possessing every. quail
ifcation that constitutes the true lcEell-
ness of woman, was, nevertheless, want
ing in 6rmness, as has been proven by
her pronouncing the horrible cath when
threatened by Zamiel. Yet, there are
few possessing fortitude enough to meet
"a cruel death, rather than yield to what,
at the trying moment, IS likely to appear
the milder alternative. When she awoke
from her swoon, the dreadful reality
burst upon her with full force; she saw
her miserable situation; the effcast of
Heaven; wicked Senouncer of the great
Eternal; vile associate of dark and
malignant spifit. Yet, the mild sunlight
of hope burst upon her soul An cath
exacted from her with threat of instant
death might not be entered in the book
| Of the recording angel. Still she re-
gretted that she had not welcomed the
steel as it glistened at her throat. Death
were certainly bliss when compared with
her present misery. What hope had sh,
nov of Heavenl None, but that whief
rested on the mercy of Gsd. A fain
prayer for that mercy escaped her lips
unheard by the mysterious being VIII

To the People Of Tennessee.

The time is rapidly approaching
when by the constitution and laws of
Tennessee, We are to be called upon
to elect a a.Govefaor, CongressmeD
and Members to the Legislature.
1t is more important that this du-
ty should be performed now than at
any other previous period in our bis
tory. We must exhibit to the eIe-
my our unalterable firmness of pur-
pose and determination to preserve
and perpetuate our free institutions.
1t is confidently believed the peo-
pie everywhere are ready to sacri-
fice personal preferences, and per
sonal claims, so far as may be neces-
shry to produce perfect harmony and
unity of action.
In the present condition Of the
country, this can only be done by
securing a meeting of the largest
number of citizens possible, from eve
ry part Of the State, for the purpose
of consulting and determining who
shall be our candidates.
For this purpose we request The
voters of the State, by public meet
ing, or such other mode as they
may deem best, to appoint delegates
to meet at Winchester, Tenn. on
Wednesday, the 18th of jane,
1868, to nominate candidate for
Governor, and a general ticket for
members Of Congress.
Regiments are requested to hold
primary meetings, and to appoint
delegates.
Exiles and refugees from counties
within the enemy lines, are request.
ed to attend as delegates from their
respective Counties.

DO IF YOU DARE,

DO IF YOU DARE,
One evening in June, by the ra. of the moor
In the depths Of the forest glade,
All lovely and fair as the fairies are,
l met beautiful maid dH.5
Her sweetness and youth, her virtue and truth
Her heart SO free from sims taint;
Mere words are too weak to utter and speak
Or her beauty to picture or paint;
| attempted my bliss to gain by kiss
From her soft ripe lips so fair;
But she turned aside with maideEly pride
And said, kiss me, sir, if you dare"
/ swore by the light of the stars so bright,
That my every act should prove
How constant aud true, as the heavens blue,
My heart would be unto love;
And said in glee, "Oh, married we'll be,
And then I'll taste the bliss
Which l can sip from thy red, red lip,
In the form, Of hearty kiss !"
Shs then gazed down on the grassy ground,
With delight in her every airn -s
And tenderly cried, while she gladly sighed,
"Do, dear love, if you dare"
Her command Iobeyed. and soor both strayed
In the beautiful garden of love-;
Where we now enjoy, without sad alloy,
The joys of the angels above;
She refuses not now, for bound in loves VOW,
Her mind is now at its ease 4
And need but request. squeeze and press,
To kiss. her whenever please
And daily she cries, while love from her eyes
Is darting its glances so fair,
That she never again will cause my heart pain
By crying, NOW, do if you dare. )"
