member when our countryman, Azareel,
| came.r
"You mistook, Esther. You can run now
my dear, and see that some refreshments be
prepared for these honored visitors"
During this short dialogue Paulus and his
companions had their first good view OF the
person to whom they had brought Germanicus
Casar's signet. None of them liked his looks.
"SuIely," said Paulus, You have the money
ready -
at is, and it is not, honored sir. The greater
portion 1 must receive from various persons
who will not part with it except on better
terms than those which the Caesar offered to
me. Ny share, however, will cheerfully ad-

the treasure with US this night, will
take you, in order to prove to tho commander
in chief that we have executed his orders, SO
far as we are concerned"
"But you will leave me my profits" an
swercd the Jew, " and give me, all the same,
a voucher in full 7"
We will spare the reader the sort Of argu-
ment which ensued 1t has, in cases anale-
gus, been repeated millions of times all over
the world, for thousands of years.
When all was settled, servants brought in
wines and dainty refreshments, and little Es-
ther, with extraordinary gracefulpess of mien
aud language, pressed the visitors to partake
of the various delicacies before them. Eleazar
forthwith prepared to produce the treasure.
Attended by Josiah Maccabeus (who had now
returned) as his scrivener, and by many SER
wants, he first directed largo and massive
empty chest of wrought-iron to be brought
into the room. The chest ran upon rollers, or
little wheels of hard wood, which were deeper
than the thickness of couple of stout poles
braced horizontally beneath the chest, and
projecting beyond it at each end. The poles
| were thus kept from touching the ground
These poles, like those of a litter OF "palkee'
could be lifted and borne upon the shoulders
of four or of eight men.

CHAPTER II.

1t was about sunset in Rome when four per-
sons of splendid stature, trained martial
bearing, and eminently gallant appearance,
sauntered along one of the principal streets.
They loitered here and there at q portico, or
paused under q covered colonnade, to swell the
momentary groups who were watching some
Sandman jester, or who listened with wonder
to sophist from the Greek islands as he de-.
claimed. Two of these four mentor whom,
as they strobe along, the rabble made obseaui-
Gus room-were still in the prime of life, and
two in the flower of early youth. They were
all plainly but neatly and carefully attired.
not in the toGa, but in the sdgum, for there
was war in Italy aud the Germans. every
body knew, were even now to be expelled he
yond the frontiers, with carnage and shame
and great overthrow. Another impressive
lesson was to be taught to all barbarians.
The four men who wore the sagum were
also armed, and some who noted them won
dered why such men were there and not with
Germanicus in Venetia. News had been whis.
pered, indeed, that the Eruption had come
much nearer than nlyrioum, and that the bar

Steamer Sunk-LOss of Life.

New ORLEANS. Nov. II.
BY the sinking Of the steamer Empire at
her dock this morning fourteen passengers
and many of the crew are believed to be
drowned. Five bodies have been recover
ed including the captains eldest daughter,
about seventeen years of age: and Mr..
Wrsvil, a well-known plantation engineer.
Captain Jean Freau lost four children, but
saved himself, wife and baby, who were
sleeping in the Texas. d. r. Parret, a
passenger who escaped from the sinking
steamer, gives the opinion that the boat
was overloaded and parted in the centre.
The Empire was built about three years
ago, and was owned by the Empire parish
packet company. She was valued at about
100000. She had on board 100 hogsheads
of sugar, besides a large number of barrels
of Molasses and quantity of rice. 1t is
impossible at present to get the exact num-
Der of lives lost, as the books and papers
of the boat are under the Texas. Several
passengers left the boat upon her arrival
otherwise the loss Of life would have been
very large.

Prof Marsh's Black Hills Exploration.

New YoRR, Nov. H.
The Tribunc's correspondent telegraphs
that on the 18th inst. Prof. Marsh, of Yale
college, with his scientific expedition, were
at Red Cloud agency, that his expedition
was opposed by the Indians, that he held a
council with the chiefs, who didn't believe
that he wanted to hunt bones in the Black
Hills, but was in search of gold. The In
dians showed great excitement, but the
professor, after an harangue by Chief
White Tail, made short speech, which
had the singular effect of modifying the
Indians and gaining their full consent for
the progress of the expedition, provided it
was accompanied by some Indians. On
the next day, the 18th, when the party
reached the agency where the Sioux scouts
were to join them, great number of fully
armed Indians were there, excited and
gathered around their chief All the In
dams who were to go with the professor
now refused to GO Red Cloud stated that
his young men believed the party were gold
hunters aud not bone hunters. In the
midst of the conversation chief Pretty
Grow rode up and shouted "White men
going into our country to find gold; we
must stop them at once" Immediately
shrill cry was made to women and children,
who ran away, and line of mounted In
dams formed in front and rear of the
soldiers and wagons. A collision seemed
imminent, but Prof. Marsh turned back,
and conflict was avoided A council
will be held.
