FANSETTE THE FAWN.
CHAPTER I.
THE ABDUCTED HEIREss.

The silvery moon glittered on the
pea-green waves of the Rhine as; it
lashed the Castle de ,Hiimo7erder,
cupmitabrickstein, and the tadpoles
murmured tenderly amid tic bushes
Of the lofty persimmons:; The castle
was bathed in light; from the donjop-
keep to the inky moat beside the
aowery portcul1is, and the Baron's
banditti blew their brains out of
bugle-horns. 1t was proud day for
the Baron de Hitimoverdercupmita-
brickstein and his beautiful but youth
full bride. The Baron was keeping
noisy wassail in the baronial hall,
and the young but lovely bride was
IN the holy solitude of her chamber,
gazing with fond mothers pride on
the exquisite form of a cherubimical
babe, the joint production Of two
souls with but a single thought, two
hearts that beat as one. In an hour
the angelic Geraldine Alexandrovna
was to be christened. There was 4
loud ring at the castle-bell. Every
cheek turned blanche with fear. Sup
pose the godmother with the silver
cup should have slipped upon a piece
OF orange-peel or fallen down a cellar.
A page who suggested this was imme-
diately led out by the collar and torn
to death by wild mules in the back
garden. The warden hoisted thepsrt-
cullis, and = long train of noble chiv-
airy entered, led by the gallant Chas.
tellard de sparkkasse, who scattered
largesse from his saddle-bow as. he
rode by the side of the widowed Bar
oness Won Sweitzer. The castle
chapel was brilliant with a thousand
burning tapers. The christening party
were waiting for the cherubimic Ger
aldine Alexandrovna, when a long
and CHASTITY shrek pierced through
the ancient building and caused every
stone to totter within its mortary bed.
The chapel-doors were flung open.
The Countess de Hitimoverdercupmit-
abrickstein appeared disheveled, and
shrieked, my chee-ild! She has
stolen my chee-ild 1"
"Who dares thus to abduct my
beautiful, my own?'' exclaimed the
appalled, but exasperated Baron,
90 Thy paramour, villain p exclaims
ed an ancient figure robed in MORE
antique. "Ha! ha! ha! Now, false
slave, I laugh thee to scorn. Hat
ha ha! ha! Adieu! Remember me,
thy deserted Frigida."
Follow her," cried the Baron.
"a million to him who catches her.
Death to him who dont!'
As the christening party gained the
1atboard Postern, the mysterious fe;
male had stabbed the warder to the
heart and torn his CORY scalp wreak-
ing from his fiery breast. She raised
the portcull,s with superhuman
strength. A goblin page, mounted
on a mule Of raven plumage, led a
milk-white jack, upon whose back
the mysterious female vaulted lightly,
She held the youthful Geraldine
Alexandrovna to her frantic bosom
A few steps more and the Baron
would regain his child. Oh, 'Evens
it was moment Of agony. He gained
the portcullis, when suddenly the
milk-white jack reached out his vel.
vet paw, and the Baron fell. The
mysterious female and her goblin
page dashed over the draw-bridge,
they let the portcullis fall, and they
were free, Ha! ha! ha! they were
free, and the Countess Hitimoverder'
cupmitabrickstein was chee-ildles.
and alone.

NEST-HIDER8.

Auo Att1o spVt VI lulu I1bIuS III tuc
South Seas called Ysabel Isle is divi-
ded among several savage tribes that
are continually at war with each 9TH
er. A terrible massacre occurring in
a portion Of the island named Malaga,
the sufferers adopted, as a means of
defense against future surprises of a
similarly unpleasant nature, the Gus
tom of sleeping in houses built in
high trees, though living by day in
the ordinary open bamboo huts.-
When the Rev. Coleridge Patterson
Bishop Of the Melahesian Islands,
visited Mahaga, he was very curious
to inspect these human nests in the
SUBMITS of the lofiests palms. They
were situated in q swamp, that for
greater safety was surrounded by q
strong wall. The lower boughs Of the
trees ;selected for habitation. had been
Topped, le&vidg ouly the highest As =
platform fot the houses. A plumb.
line let down from the vveranda Of one
Of these houses to the ground showed
the distance to be "a feet.
The ladders leadingup to the houses
were planted upon thetop of the wall.
They consisted of bamboo pole in
the centre, to which cross-pieces about
2 feet fong were lashed by vines. To
steady these, and also to hold on by,
there were double sets of plant vine
stems stretched along the whole length.
One ladder was found to measure so
feet. Another Of 80 feet had forty
two rounds or cross-pieces, at unequal
distances apart. Up and down these
dizzy ladders. the native men, women,
and children ran like monkeys, never
using their hands, but trusting en-
tirely to the sure planting of their
feet. Attirst the Bishop dared not at
tempt an ascent, and while he stood
wondering At the fearlessness Of the
climbers, he saw q woman 20 up with
! heavy burden on her back Is if it
was the easiest thing in the world,
and not once staying herself with her
hands. A sailor in the company Of
the Bishop, who was perfectly at
home in the shrouds Of = ship, as:
| cended one of the ladders, and when
he came down confessed: Il was 50
afraid my legs shook. Going aloft
| is nothing to it." AT another time
the Bishophimself mananged to reach
| one Of the arboreal. .huts. He found
it in an inexpressibly filthy condition.
The floor was made Of matted BAN:
boo, and measued % feet by II feet,
and the roof and sides were Of palm
leaf thatch. The roof was low, and
there we're no apertures for air and
light. Everything was grimy with
SCOT and dirt, while the noise Of
squalling babies, the singing and
scolding Of women, and the chat.
ter Of all the natives together,
made the place a very pande-
monium. A brief stay in the
! wonderful nest convinced the Bishop
that it was much more comfortable to
sleep in hut on the ground, where
during the night the singing and
squalling Of the women aud babies
above him sounded as if they were in
the clouds. -

DEAR SIR :-Referring to a communi'
cation in your issue Of the 7th inst

there is not a shadow of authority for
Tax Collectors of the State to demand
y per cent. penalty on the taxes tor
1874" beg to submit that your cor
RESPONDENT does not state the case alto.
gether fairly. The Revenue Collector
does not demand the II per cent. pen
atty Il the taxpayer comes forward
and pays his taxes; but if he allows
his property to be advertised and sold
for taxes. then the II per cent. is add
ed, as well az the 9 per cent. This
amount is then subject to 10 Ter cent.
per annum on redemption, by Acts
1865, CHI. so.
Sec. 81, CHI. 11S, Acts 1873, creating
the - per cent. penalty is not mention
ed in CHI. 1912, Acts 1875, suspending
the collection of taxes for 1874, and is
certainly not repealed by the reference
in words TO Secs. 50 g. 81 of this Act
of 1873 The penalty in Section 81 is,
therefore, in no way, inconsistent with
the suspension or exclusion granted BY
the Act of 1875. This ! believe and
still believe to be the proper construc
ton of the Statutes on this subject
AMI IN view of the tangled condition OF
the revenue laws consequent upon this
suspension, thought it my duty to adj
wise them accordingly, and the instruc-
tions were given advisedly, and aItcI
consultation with the Attorney Gencr-
al for the State.
Again, it was thought necessary, as
an @induccment to the tax payer not tt
forfeit the land or let them go to sale
such as vas important with a view to
get payment, and not sales.
AS the communication Of 81. X. B.'
appears without comment, edit0rlally,
| take it that you coincide with his
views, and deem it only due mysel; to
make this personal explanation, and
do il desiring TO avoid any discussion
in print, but hoping that after investi-
eating the subject you will approve o
nv action in the premises.
Please excuse the length Of this let
