CATCHING A TARTAR.
1 TRADITION OF SWEDEN.
BY GEORGE L. AIKEN.

Whether the following tradition gave
rise to the well known saying of "Catch-
ing Tartar" I am not prepared to say );
but it is very likely, for the circumstances
fit the popular phrase aptly.
Charles the Twelfth of Sweden, sur
named, on account of his warlike propen-
stiles, by bis admirers, the ''Lion Of the
North" and by his detractors, with equal
justice, perhaps. the 'Madman of the
North," accidentally encountered, at the
chateau Gortz, young creature from the
banks of the Volga-a niece of Baron
Gortz So powerful was the impression
she at once made upon the hitherto inn
pregnable heart of the hero. so completely
was he spellbound in her charms, that he
seemed to lose all recollection of other
matters, even of the disastrous battle of
Pultowa.
The name of this enchantress was the
Princess Ikla-for she was princess, her
mother, the baron's sister. having married
the Hetman of the Tartars. Being left an
orphan at an early age she had taken up
her residence with Baron Gortz in Stral-
Sund.
The baron was bit of historian-or
thought he was-and was then engaged in
writing history Of the king. who called
upon him often to revise and correct the
work. Besides the baron was Que Of the
brown councillors and was often entrusted
with important business of the state.

which seems inherent in the breast Of
|greatness-he wished to be loved for him.

THE BURIALoF sIRJoHN MOORE.
BY CHARLES WOLFE.

Rev. Charles W olfe was clergyman Of the
Church of England, who died in early life,
leaving but few specimens of his poetic talent.
Byron said of this balled, that he would rather
be the author of it than of any one ever written.
Not drum was heard, not funeral note,
AS his corse to the rampant we hurried;
Not soldier discharged his farewell shot
Der the grave where our hero we buried
We buried him darkly at the dead of night,
The sods with our bayonets turning;
By the struggling moonbeam's misty light,
And the lanterns dimly burning.
No useless coffin enclosed his breast,
Not in sheets or in shrouds we wound him ;
But he lay like a warrior taking his rest,
With his martial cloak around him.
Few and short were the prayers we said,
And we spoke not word of sorrow;
And we steadfastly gazed on face of the dead,
And we bitterly thought of the morrow.
And smooth down his lonely pillow,
That the foe and the stranger would tread o'er
And we far away on the billow. This head,
Ligiitiy Ta5J * 81 ssaasst . zatc,
And o'er his cold ashes upbraid him,
But little he IL reck, if they'll let him sleep on
In the grave where Briton has laid him.
But half of our heavy task was done,
When the clock struck the hour for retiring;
And we heard the distant random gun
Which the foe was sullenly firing.
Slowly and sadly we laid him down,
From the field Of his fame fresh and CORY;
We carved not line, and we raised not stone;
But we left him alone with his glory.
