A BEAUTIFUL ILLUSTRATION

TIE following is from brilliant lee
turc recently delivered in New Orleans
by the Honorable Charles Gayarrc, on
the subject of "Oaths, Amncstics, and
Rebellion" The moral pointed out is,
that President Johnson may trust with
out fear those men who fought to the
last the cause they so loved, and which
claimed their tidclity-nlay trust the
Rebels WHO come to him with clean
hands, after having deposited the keys
of their loyalty on the dead body of

contending for the crown Of CASTLE. |
forget their names for the present, but
to facilitate the feeling of my story,
shall call one John and the other Alton
so. Alfonso proclaimed, of course, that
John was a usurpcr, Il Rebel, and John
returned the compliment. We'll, John
defeated his rival, horse and foot, and
carried everything triumphantly be-
fore him, with the exception Of a single
town, which Alfonso had entrusted to 6
stout old knight, called Aguilar, and
which, after Il long siege, still remained
| impregnahle. "Hou have done enough
for honor" said King John one day to
the knight, surrender and you shal
| have the most liberal terms" eff yol
had read the history Of our country,
answered Aguilar, "you would have
! known that none of our race ever ca
pitulated." 81 will starve you, prouc
and obstinate fool!" "Starve the ca'
gle, if you can" 81 will put you ano
Inc whole garrison to the sword
"Try!" was the lacOnic reply, and thu
siege went on.
One morning, rs the rising sun wa
beginning to gild with its rays the high
est towers of the leagured city, a parleS
was sounded from the camp of the enc
my. The old knight appeared ON Tho
wall and looked down ON the King be
low.
Surrender" said John again, "mS
rival, Alfonso, is dead, and the Who'll,
of CASTLE recognizes my sway ~ that o
its legitimate sovereign"
"Slrc, l believe you, but | must SEQ

vile, where his dead body liesi yoI

gentlemen, tive are the three gossips of

you in her house was the only reward

"Great Godw cried Delille, "how

persons unite to amuse an old man! In
France alone such delightful decep-
tion can be used. My brethren, my
friends, ladies-you, whose presence
cXcrts SO happy an influence over me,
may you feel half the pleasure expert

confidently say, we have prolonged the

banner flying and Il small escort Of
grim-visaged warriors. Behind him
the gates closed before him the dense
battalions Of the enemy opened their
ranks, and us he passed along, slowly
riding his war-horse, shouts of admira-
tion burst wide and far from the whole
host who had so often witnessed his
deeds of valor, and the echoes of the
loud and enthusiastic greeting accom-
panied him until the red plume, which
waved over his helmet, was out OF sight.
He arrived at Seville, and went straight
to the cathedral, where he found the
tomb Of his late sovereign. He opened
it, and after gazing awhile with moist
eyes at the pale face which met his look,
he thus addressed the dead monarch:
=" had sworn never to deliver to any
body but yourself the keys of the town
which you had entrusted to my care.
Here they are. l have kept my oath,"
and he deposited them on the breast OF
King Alfonso.
Then bestrlding the steed he galloped
p"Nh w iiio poot' 40 soon uo uc dp-
preached again the ranks of the enemy
opened, and King John confronted him.
" Well" said the King, care you sat
isfed, and do you not give up the con-
test?" Yes, sire" Where are the
keys of the city?" "On the King AL
fonso's breast; so and get them; We
meet no more" "By heaven, we shall
never par.," exclaimed the King. "Get
the keys back yourself and remain in
command Of the town in my name"
The followers Of the King murmured,
and complained of his rewarding u
Rebel. "I He is no longer one," said
King John; "such Rebels, when won,
become the best of subjects"

THE TESTERS SERMON.

THE Jester shook his hood and bells, ana lcaped
uron chair;
The pa,res laughed the women screamed and
tossed their scented hair;
The falcon whlstled, stag-hounds boyed, the lap
dog barked without;
The scullon dropped the pitcher brown, the COOK
rallied ut the lout;
The steward, counting out the gold, let pouch and
money fall
And why7 Because the Jester rose to say grace
IN In the hall
The pege played with the herons plume, the
steward with his chain;
The butler drummed upon the board, and laughed
with might and main;
The groorns beat on their metal cans, ana roarcd

Hat still the Jester shut his eyes, and rolled his
witty head;
And when they grew little still, read half n
yard Of text,
And waving hand, struck on the dHsk-then
frowned like one perplcxcd.

fant's presence could be discovered it
was concluded that she had fallen into
the river and got drowned. The despair
of the mother was beyond all descrip-
ton; but the idea of the child's death,
accepted by all besides, was rejected en-
tirely by her, The river had been drag
ged, no trace had been found, and so,
after few years time, when the death
of the prince, her husband, had released
her from the obligation to remain in the
chateau, she gave up the domain into
the hands of her brother-in-law, and set
out upon strange pilgrimage all over
the continent, fully convinced that she
would find, one day or other, the object
of her search. The sums of money
spent i'll the pursuit, the time, the toll,
the anxiety absorbed upon every high
road, need not be described. During
the embassy of Prince Tallcyrand she
came to London, and was received by
Queen adelaide with the utmost kind
ness and sympathy.
Soon afterward she went once more to
the South, still bent on finding her lost
child. One day, the carriage climbing
slowly up the steep hills in the neigh
borhood of Lausanne, she was accosted
by II bcggar-Woman holding by the
hand 4 poor blind girl for whom she
was imploring AIMS. The girl looked
gentle and swcet-lemperCd, resembling
in no way the harsh vixen whom she
called mother. The inmate of the car
riagc had fallen into Il doze, and the
woman babe the girl sing to arouse the
lady. The song was Il vulgar ditty be-
| longing to the district, with no romance
to insure attention, and yet it woke the
lady from her trance; something in the
voice reminded her of sister lost many
years before, and she stopped the pos
tillion while she questioned the girl as
to her origin. The day and hour were
come at last every word uttered by the
maiden confirmed the suspicion of iden-
tity.

man like herself, who owned to having
deprived her of sight in order to excite
compassion. The locality whence the
child had been taken was proof sufficient
of the truth. The Princess returned
home with her poor blind companion
and devoted her whole life to the pros
pect of cure, us she had done before tt
that of discovery. But all attempt.

THE BLIND POET.
DRLILLE AT THE CADRAN BLEU
TRANSLATED from the French.l

TRANSLATED from the French
THE recollection of the persons and
places that promoted our happiness in
the joyous days of youth is seldom ef-
faced from the mind. We adhere to 1T
as closely rs does the perfume to the
vase from which it has been taken. The
more ardent and lively the Imagination,
the more profound is its impression, the
more durable its effects. Thus Delille,
in his old age, loved to recount the lit
.erary festivals in which he had i'll youth
participated, at time when his genius
had been displayed by the sublime pro-
.ductions of his pen.
But of all the parties formed for the
purpose of hearing the poet recite his
verses, the one to which he recurrcd
with the greatest enthusiasm was
breakfast given in the year l73O by Il
lady equally celebrated for her birth
and talents. This assemblage OF the
most distinguished females and all the
.literati of the age took place at the
=. Cadran Blcu," near the ramparts OF
the temple. 1t was there that Delille,
for the first time, recited some passages
from his poem on the imagination; it
was there that he repeated that beautl-
ftil episode in which he describes the
fate of an artist who was lost in the Ro-
man Catacombs; and there, too, he first
excited that impression of deep and
general enthusiasm which ever after
followed his literary career.
This party never occurred to Dclille
unaccompanied with the most delight
full associations, while it inspired him
with prediction for the " Cadran
Bleu" which no other sentiment could
efface. Every year, on the return oi
Spring, he repaired thither with his
friends, rs he said, to Il public dinner
lie loved to mingle with the numerous
visitors whom he was sure Of meeting
there, to listen to the various conver3a-
tions which occasionally reached him
and to analyze the different remarks
which were made around him. He de
/, lighted there to observe the most oppo
site extremes of character; the JOY OF
come, the impatience of others; the po
llteness of these, the rudeness of those

by their amusing variety; and, Us h'
observed, "seemed to restore the health
to calm the nerves, and to prepare thu
mind for opening itself to every limo

y Tile political disturbances in France
soon after compelled Deliile to quit hi
country, and deprived him of his favol
ate parties. How frequently, durin

almost impossible for him to appear

THE BLIND PRINCESS.

TIE blind young Princess Of--Was
presented to the Empress Eugcnic at
Schwalbach a few days ago, and the ut
most interest and sympathy were cN-
cited by her story. The lady is well
known all over Germany; her princcly
domain is visited every year by crowds
of strangers. The beautiful portrait by
Cornelius in one of ihe salons is sxanl-
ined with much interest, and everyone
departs little dreaming that the large
and soft blue eyes, seeming to look rom
from the picture so full of sweetness and
benevolence, have in life nopoWer to re-
turn the glanccS of sympathy and kind
ness directed toward them.
The story of the Princess is perhaps
the most touching romance of the nlnc-
tecnth century. AS child she had
been stolen from the gardens of the very
chateau she now inhabits. A careless
nurse, bent on her own enjoyment, hAd
suffered her mast ar's child to stray tow
ard the river, and when, in answer to
the frantic appeals and the search made
in every direction, no signs ol the lh-
