PARIS MAINE. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER Z, 1882

A dozen arms were raised at once
against the solitary man, who, with hi
back against the wall, and one foot or
the body of his horse sternly confronted
them. Henri DeMalet now Colonel
DeMalet of the French Cuirassers) was
still the same dashing fellow as ever,
though twenty.three years had passed
since he took his first lesson in fencing
from Spalatro, the Italian, of whom he
had never heard word all this time.
But if Spalatro was gone, his teaching
was not, and DeMalet's sword seemed to
be everywhere at once, keeping the
swarming Russians at bay. as he had
done many a time already during the
terrible retreat which was now approach
ing its end.
leave him to me-" cried deep voice
from behind shes man worth fight
ing, this fellow !"
"Ay, leave him to the colonel" cho-
rused the Russians. He'll soon settle
his fencing tricks"
A tall, dark man. with close.cropped
black hair just beginning to turn gray,
stepped forward and crossed swords with
DeMalet, who, feeling at once that he
had met his match, stood warily on the
defensive. The Russian grenadiers
watched eagerly as the swords flashed
and fell and rose again, while the CON-
batants, breathing hard, and setting their
teeth, struck parried advanced and re-
treated by turns. At length DeMalet
finding himself hard pressed, tried the
blow taught him by Spalatro; but the
stranger met it with a whirling back
stroke that whisked the sword clean out
Of bis hand. Instead of cutting him
down, however the Russian seized him
by the hand with cry of JOY.
There's but one man in the French
army who knows that stroke; cried he,
"and I'm glad to see you remember so
well what | taught you. Now at last
Spala.ro the officer can repay the kind
ness shown to Spalatro the vagabond.
When | came over here with the Rus
sian prince to whom you recommended
me, they soon found out that | could
handle soldiers as well as swords, and
gave me a commission in the army, and
here am, Colonel Spalatro, with the
cross Of St. George and big estate in
Central Russia. Now if you fall into the
hands Of our soldiers you'll be killed to
certainty, so you'd better come with me
to headquarters, where I'll report you
are my prisoner. You will be safe un-
der my charge until there's chance Of
sending you home, and then you are
welcome to 90 as soon as you please"
And Colonel Spalatro was as good as
his word.

The latest sensation in Pueblo, Col,

The latest sensation in Pueblo, Col.
is not q new mine Of fabulous richness,
but the image of an infant found in q
block of stone which was cut last week
from the Whipple quarry. While work
man was dressing his block, his chisel
laid bare a round ball near its surface,
which presently dropped out of the cav
ity in which it rested. disclosing on its
under surface, which the chisel had
not touched, the perfect model of Q
human face. The local press supposes
it to be the head of an image which was
once worshipped by some prehistoric
race. The stone was taken from the
quarry at a point eight feet below the
surface. "a

THE BABY SoRCERESS.
BY THOMAS WENTWORTH moGlSsoS.

MY baby sits beneath the tall elm'tree.
wreath OF tangled ribbons in her hands;
She twines and twists the many colored
strands
A little sorceress, weaving destines.
Now the pure white she grasps; now naught
can please
nut strips OF crimson. lurid as the brands
From passions fires; or yellow, like the
sands
That lend son setting 70 the asure seas.
And so with sweet. inccssant toll she fills
summer hour, still following fancies new,
TIL my heart a sudden terror thrills
Lest, az she wesves. her simless choice prove
true.
Thank God, our fates proceed not from our
wills,
The Power that spins the thread shall blend
the hue.

GoLpsMTH's TESTIMONY.
Goldsmith speaks OF

"That dire disease, whose ruthless power
Withers the beauty's transient Hover"
No truer description could be given OF the
disease of the kidneys, which, uncared for,
ripens in Bright's disease, and cuts down
our strongest men in very short time.
And if Goldsmith had known Of Hunts
Remedy, he would undoubtedly have con
tjnued his poem, and spoken OF
4" HINTS Remedy, whose matchless worth,
Makes IL a boon 10 all the earth"
II is surely boon to thousands OF suiier-
ers who have been able to find relief no.
