There are few intelligent American families
in which Haper's Magazine would not be an
appreciated and highly welcome guest. There
is no monthly magazine an intelligent reading
family can less afford to be without. Many
magazines are accumulated. Harper is edited.
There is not magazine thaNjs printed which
shows more intelligent pains expended on its
articles and mechanical execution. There is
not cheaper magazine Published. There is
not, confessedly, more popular magazine in
the world.-Neic England Homestead.
A repository of biography and history, itera
ture, science, and art, unequaled by any other
American publication. The volumes
are as valuable as mere work of reference as
any cyclopedia we can place in our libraries.
Harper's Magazine is a record of travel every
where since the hour of its establishment. Liv-
ingstone and Gordon Cumming in Africa, Strain
among the Andes and Ross Browne In the East,
Spoke ON the Nile and Macgregor on the Jor-
dan-indeed, all recent travellers Of note have
seen their most important discoveries repro
duced in these pages. Most of our younger and
many of our older writer's find here their literary
biography. Our artists see the best evidences
of their genius and the most enduring speci-

What more is there for me to tell you?
Colonel Diderich was cured of his wounds,
and disappeared from Mayence.
The authorities of the town considered it
iudicious to keep these abominable details
from the parents of the victims; 1 learned
them from the Waterman, Selig himself, after
he had become old, and retired to his village,
near Saarbruck. He alone knew these de-
tails, having acted as witness at the secret
inquiry which was instituted before the
criminal tribunal of Mayence.

when she came little while ago, she ap-
peared to have recovered spark Of reason,
and told me -"
Master Schwartz paused.
''What did she tell you, nionsieur?''
THAT she had seen woman carrying a
child"
"Ahp
Thinking that she was only raving, i sent
her away"
The Colonel smiled bitterly.
"YOu sent her away?'' he cried.
"Yes; she seemed to me to have relapsed
into her state of Madness"
. Parbleu 2" cried the Count, in a tone of
thunder; ''you refuse assistance to this un-
fortunate woman? You drive away from her
her last CLEAN of hope, instead of sustaining
and defending her, as it is your duty to do ?
And you dare to retain your Office You dare
to receive the emoluments -
He went up close to the Provost, whose
wig trembled, and added, in a low, concen-
trated tone:
You are scomdrel! If do not recover
my child, kill you like dog"
Master Schwartz, his staring eyes nearly
starting from his head, his hands helplessly
open, his mouth clammy, said not word ;
terror held him by the throat and, besides,
he knew not what to answer.
suddenly, the Colonel turned his back on
niin, anu gong 10 christine, looked at her for
a few seconds, then, raising his voice.

swer me. In the name of God-in the name
of your child-where did you see that wo-
man?'
He paused, and the poor woman MUIR
INJURED, in plaintive voice:
"Deubche! -Deubche! they have killed
her!"
The Count turned pale, and carried away
by terror, seized the mad woman's hand.
ANSWER me, unfortunate creature AM
swer me !" he cried.
He shook her; Christine's head fell back
she uttered peal of frightful laughter, and
said:
"Yes--yes-it is done! the wicked woman
has killed it"
The Count felt his knees giving way, and
sank rather than set down upon chair, his
elbows upon the table, his pale face between
nus hands, his eyes fixed, as ifgazing upon
some fearful scene.
The minutes passed slowly in silence.
The clock struck ten the sound made the
Colonel start. He rose, opened the door,
and Christine went out.
Monsieur" said Master Schwartz.
Hold your tongue !" interrupted the Col
onel, with whitening look.

first floor, then vague light appeared in a
crumbling wall at the back; boards creaked
above the Colonel, and the light came nearer
and nearer, falling first upon a ladder-stair-
case, heap of old iron in a corner, pile of
wood; further on, upon a sash window look
ing out into yard, bottles right and left, a
basket of rags-a dark, ruinous, and hideous
interior.
At last a tin lamp with smoky wick, held
by small hand, as dry and sinewy as the
claw of bird Of prey, was slowly projected
over the stair-rail, and above the light APP
peared the head of an misunderstanding wo-
man, with hair the color of tow, bony cheeks,
tall ears standing almost straight out from
the head, light gray eyes glittering under
deep brows in short, sinister being,
dressed in filthy petticoat, her feet in old
shoes, her fieshless arms bare to the elbows,
holding lamp in one hand, and in the other
sharp slater's Ratchet.
Scarcely had this abominable being
plunged her eyes into the darkness than
she rushed back up the stairs with aston
ishing agility.
But it was too late; the Colonel had
bounded after her, sword in hand, and seized
the old witch by the petticoat.
"My child, wretch!" he cried; "my
child"
At this roar of the lion the hyena turned
and struck at random with her Ratchet.
A frightfnl struggle ensued; the woman,
thrown down upon the stairs, tried to bite !;
the lamp, which had fallen ON the ground,
burned there, its wick suffering in the damp
and throwing changing shadows on the dusky
wall.
ssMy child!" repeated the Colonel; "my
child, or I'll kill your"
"You-yes, You shall have your child"
replied the breathless woman, in an ironical
tone. ".Oh! it's not finished--not-I've good
teeth-the coward, toto strangle me! Ho!-
above, there ARE you deaf:-let me go
IH-I4l tell you all"
She was nearly exhausted, when another
witch, older and more haggard, tottered down
the stairs, crying:
"I'm here!''
The wretch was armed with large butch
er's knife, and the Count, as he raised his
eyes, saw that she was selecting a place in
which to strike him between the shoulders.
He thought himself lost; providential
accident alone could save him.
The mad woman, until then, a motionless
spectator, sprang upon the old woman, cry
ing:
s'It is she There she is Oh, recognize
her!-she shall not escape me!'

allude to the action taken by the Morocco
Union, in appointing committee to use every

Messrs. John @. Baker and VIM. s. Hayes,

pass just such law expressing the Butehering

Health would be much more carefully guarded
than it is a present, and the average OF human life
heightened by many years,if common sense and the
light of experience were accepted by the un yeral
public as their medical monitor and guide. The
true philosophy Of health is simple. 1t consists in
refrainng from indulgences and imprudences which
impair the vital forces, and In supplying any def
cheney of vital power and constitutional vigor that
may exist, by invgorating and Alternative treatment
To reinforce and regulate feeble system, and to
prevent more vigorous physique from yielding to
unhealthy aud debilltating Influences Hostetter's
Stomach Bitterl is unquestionaby the most potent
OF all vegetable purifiers. As a stimuant, 1t is the
pHrest ever administered in medical practice; as
tonic and stomaehic, the most nfable; as an anti
bilious agent, the safest and surest and as an
aperient and regulating medicine, mild and painless
yet irresistible 1t is protection against disease OF
every kind and all seasons and is particularly ell
eacious as means OF forearming the system against
the ailments generated by raw, damp, ungenia
atmosphere. Hence Its great value as a winter
tonic and invigorant. No one predispOsed to indi.
