,uE REVENGE OF THE PEOPLE.

=. THE REVENGE OF THE fEOfLE-
"Lord," whispered Baruch, 'Lord. did
ask naught of thee and thou hast given me
allp'
He uttered these words in an awed, breath
spoke to some person quite near him. His
face was upturned; his hands were clasped;
he had fallen upon his knees.
Ariella stood before him, shining and
sweet; she smiled while Baruch prayed.
But his mother wept for joy, and bowed her
head upon her hands. The man born blind
had said: "Mv mother, behold thee! Thou
hast dear countenance. Let me look upon
it while 1 can."
This was hours ago, and still the wonder
held. No return Of their lifelong darkness
had visited those afflicted eyes. As the
night had passed on, the rather Baruch testi-
fed that his vision clarified. From cloud
and haze, and floating, shining spots, and
wavering phantasms, and dizzy vagaries of
light and shade, firm outline grew, and per-
spective took her place, and the laws of op-
tics slowly and surely asserted themselves.
After the first thrill of delight in the sight
of Ariella and the natural movement of
tenderness toward his mother, profound
religious emotion had seized the devout
nature of the blind man. He had passed
much of the night in a rapture of prayer
which the two women dared not disturb.
s'Let him alone" whispered Rachel
through her happy tears, "give him his way.
He always liked it as well as men with
eyes. Praying is safe business and keeps
him out of harms way, till his sight be
stronger, if, praise to God, it doth remain

takes on an importance which revives the
story with tremendous interest.
An American travelling through Spain
the past summer, while Willing away fort
night at Madrid, accidentally encountered
these young princes, in whose veins are
mingled and course the pride of the house
of Bourbon and the sovereignty of Ameri-
can manhood, and though the narrative of
their boyish lives was simple enough, the
incidents antecedent to their birth was so
close a copy of fairy tale that an inquiry
begun in Spain was even more assiduously
prosecuted in America. Thus it was
that Mr.. Perkins was found at his
home in Syracuse and rather forced,
not persuaded, TO partially lit the curtain
of his life. Mr.. Perkins accomplished no
common thing in wedding a Bourbon prin-
cess, but proved his fitness for diplomacy by
earning as well the respect and admiration
of those whose royal toes he had most ruth
lessly trOdden upon,
CIRCUMSTANCES OF THE MARRIAGE.
The marriage took place in Portugal
when France and Prussia were at war. 1t
was not limited by ante nuptial agreements,
except as 10 the religion of its issue, and
had no morganatic features. 1t was the re-
suit of a courtship carried on during the
exile, In various parts of Europe, of the
reigning family, that branch to which the
dashing young diplomat Joined his fortunes,
being resident for the nonce at Lisbon.
The revolution in Spain, arising out of
the profigacy and conjugal license of the
court at Madrid, had come in 1865. Queen
Isabella had been Obliged to flee for her life
to find an asylum in France never to return
to the throne, which she abdicated two years
later in favor of her son Alfonso, Prince Of
the Asturias, who ascended it on the resto-
ration of the monarchy, which fol-
lowed the turbulent and wretched trial
of republicanism. The bride of the Lisbon

marriage and her mother, Her Roval Hich
ness Dona Isabel Fernandina Bourbon de
Bourbon, had taken refuge in the Portu-
guese capital under the protection of King
Luis, who extended the exiles his gracious
coincidence. In his official capacity Mr..
Perkins was frequently at court, and there
under the strict etiquette of those circles
met his future wife. The love-making
doubtless had its little excitements and es-
capades, but it is clear that the incentives
in both hearts mastered the rigid system of
espionage prevalent in Spain and Portugal
more than anywhere else, for in due course
the offer of the American for the hand of
the Princess was approved by the family,
though by what means the lovers conquered
the prejudice natural to royal minds against
a subject and republican is not vouch-
safed here to record.

TWO PRINCES BORN OF THE UNION.
WRITTEN FOR THE DIsPATCH.l

Charles Allen Perkins, of Syracuse, n.
Y, enjoys the distinction of being the only
American citizen who ever contracted mar
riage with family of royal blood. The
circumstances attending this extraordinary
alliance are not only aglow with the color OF
romance, but bear directly on the convulsive
history OF Snain during the past Is years,
during which period of storm and unrest in
the land of Ferdinand and Isabella the
American spouse of a Bourbon princess
played his little part in desperate game of
destiny. As two children were born OF this
union of love, and are now growing to man
hood under the imperial egis of line of
kings, the inconsequential note made of the
event at the time OF its consummation. now

and nurse. This was so uncommon spec
tacle that it was the talk of the haute
noblesse of Paris. Queens are very chary
about sharing their carriages with others
than royal equals. The party were driven
directly to the mother, who was found re-
clining on her couch. The baby was as
chirrupy and happy as he could be expected
10 be. The names that were heaped upon tine
infant were Alfonso Francisco De Asis Fer
nando Marie Del Piler Pho Carlos.
AT this happy gathering the Queen pre-
sented the mother with set of diamonds,
her newborn godson with another set, and
to the father she gave a portrait of Alfonso,
her son and the future King of Spain, en-
circled with precious stones.
The advent into this world of the second
OF the American Bourbons was none the less
joyful, but not nearly so formal. He was
born in 1876 at Paris and received at his
christening the name of Don Carlos, to-
gether with several other patronymics which
were designed to placate members of the
royal family living or dead. Thus 1t Will
be seen the American Bourbons bear the
names of the two rivals for the throne Al
fonso anu Don Carlos. At present the
younger prince is the companion of his elder
brother at Madrid and is to enter the army,
being now in royal military school. Both
boys are fine young men, the elder favoring
his mother In looks, land the younger his
father.
The Princess and her American husband
tired the primrose path of dalliance for four
years, basking in the full glare of royalty.
CAST FORTUNE ON THE WRONG SIDE.
In this close communion with the narrow
circle which upholds the divine right of
kings, the American consort and his royal

of politics undid them quite. They had
safely launched their hopes on a sea of
ambition, and escaped its shoals thousand
times, only to be wrecked at last.
AT this time war was raging in Spain,
The Carlists were in the field contending for
the throne against the Republicans. No
one had yet taken the field for the other
branch of the family-Isabella and her son
Don Alfonso--consequently the Legitimist
press thundered in favor of Don Carlos,
whose army gave hope of success. The
house of Bourbon divided against
itself in a whirlwind of clamor. Yield
ing to the opportunities of his wife,
who had been induced to 60 into the Car
list camp by promise of recognition better
than could be Obtained from the supremacy
ofAlfonso, Mr.. Perkins frankly declared
his preferences. He took an active interest
IN the progress OF the war in Spain, and as
member of the Carlist junta, or club at
Paris, contributed much to the Partisan
and London press inimical to the hopes of AL
ionso. With that candor characteristic of the
American he said what he had to say bold
ly. Mr.. Perkins and his wife were both
egged on in this direction by the patronage
OF Dona Margarita, wife of Don Carlos, the
pretender, who found the young Americans

are come to mourn with him over his domes-
| tic misfortunes. Such calamity is it-an

"And mine, o my neighbors," protested
Malachi, sis greatly increased by her in

most helpless, whining woman OF them all.
But may not upbraid her, for fear me for
the nature of her disease which groweth
violent upon her. 1 do greatly fear me that
r this sickness is unto death. Condole with
me, o my neighbors, and spare me these
numerous expressions of your sympathy; go
ye your ways, do entreat you, and leave
an afflicted household in peace unto ITSELF"
AT this instant the crowd parted with
kind OF electric shock. The widest voice
hushed. Not word was spoken. In the
silence of stupefaction the people divided to
the right and to the left and tell back.
Straight through them, erect, strong, fair,
by Barueh, the man born blind. He turned
his face upon his neigbors, with bright,
conscious, seeing eyes. Behind them
walked Rachel, quivering with joy.
Behold, " she cried shrilly, ''behold nv
son who was born as blind as any mummy
in the sepulchres of Egypt. No man in
Bethany seeth better than Barueh seeth on
this day. Tne Nazarene hath wrought the
deed. Behold the maiden whom he hath
healed. Behold my son to whom he hath
given eyes that nature did deny him. Be-
hold Baruch! Behold Ariellal Bless the
Nazarene?"
1.-THE Nazarene! The Nazarenep'
The crowd took up the cry. 1t rose and
swelled with mighty shout. The morning
air throbbed with it.
"He hath wrought wonder in our midsr.
such as no man knoweth of until this day.
Where is the Nazarene? Bless mimi Crown
himl Call him! Jesus of Nazareth be
glorihed in Bethany from this hourP'
But Ariella and Baruch fell upon their
knees at the sound of that precious name:
and there among all the people they offered
thanks unto Jehovah because OF him; and
forgot the people and forgot the clamor, and
remembered nothing but their own once
miserable plight, and his power and mercy
who had snatched them from il.
But the mood of the people was not so
solemn; and another cry quickly replaced
the name of the Nazarene: isMalachiI
Malachi, the Phariseel Have him outi
Have out the father who denieth the marvel
wrought upon his daughter, and tricketh
the people of Bethany and of Jerusalem.
Have him out unto usP'
Before any calmer spirit could interfere-
the roughs of the crowd had burst open The
door OF the house and seized the cursino
shaking Malachi from behind a curtain
where he had ingloriously hidden. They
had him out indeed. They tore him out and
tossed him to and fro, and, in default of a
pool to plunge him in, fetched water and
soused him smartly till he was like to
drown: In the sputtering and exhausted
condition consequent on this treatment, they
rolled hlm down the hill till he was clothed

But should leave him to attend to his own

son do thus? Must nv son do so? Women
do displease men by that manner of prattle;
and suppose he is man alter all, 4" added
Rachel. ''I'm sure don't know what else
to call him."
While the women whispered together
Baruch silently prayed on. Toward morn
ing Ariella slipped away to her own couch
and slept; for she was weary with the ac-
cumulating excitement OF the day. To the
invalid, tor years confined to tine little
world of the sick room, the recent events of
lie were nothing less than tremendous.
Her scale of estimate was so fine that such
experiences were to her soul as wars to the
history of nations. The cure of the blind
man crowning the whole, almost stunned the
girl She slept from sheer exhaustion, long
and heavily.
Mother and son remained together in the
familiar room. Rachel watched Baruch
like tigress her young. Baruch seemed
almost unconscious of her. He had fallen
into a spiritual ecstacy. Truly it seemed
that this unusual man cared less in that
hour of his deliverance from the worst of
human affections for the newly revealed
and precious power of sight than he did
that the attitude OF his own soul toward the
source of this incredible mercy might be
the right one. He was, in short, too nearly
overcome with gratitude to God and to the
Healer to be trivially divested by the mar
vels of vision.
SIT thou would'st stop praying long
enough to get nap" suggested his mother
at last. thou could'st begin again after
ward"
81 do but grow stronger as L pray" re-
piled Baruch gently. Behind my eye
balls 1 feel weakness strengthen, and
moving of an unseen force. But thou art
my mother, and obey thee"
With these childlike words, Baruch
turned like little boy, laid his head upon
his mothers knees, and slept. Rachel put
her thin, elderly hands upon his curling
hair. Her tears fell silently. She dared
not move. She sat till dawn, and blessed
him. Only she who has borne an afflicted
child can understand the thoughts of
Rachel.
Commotion ruled the house of Malachi.
1t was morning; in fact the banners of the
early day were well unfurled upon the fair
est OF skies and unto the gayest of breezes
1t was a cool day, when the people are ear
ly astir in Eastern countries, and the crowd
in front of the house was larger than:usual.

ICON tiHued From Last Sunddy.l

Rumor had gone softly, but had whispered
that unusual occurrences were taking place
within the house of the Pharisee. 1t was
impossible to make out what; and curiosity
invented tale upon tale.
The fact was nothing more than Malachi's
discovery OF the flight OF Ariells. OF this
event Hagaar, her mother, was the most in
nocent woman alive. She had walked her
lord from his sonorous slumbers at a late
hour with the agitated announcement that
the bed of Ariella was empty. Malachi
sprang and cursed. Hagaar paled and
wept. He stormed and commanded. She
searched and sighed. He accused her of
completely in the trick. She denied it In
the name of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob,
BY the souls of the prophets, and by
the house OF David. He fell into fury,
and she dropped upon her knees. He made
as if he would have rushed from the house
to discover and secure the maiden. But
glance at the gathering mob in front OF his
gates withstood him. In vain Hagaar en-
treated him shrewdly: go, my lord; 90
forthl Hasten and seek thy daughter, lest
harm beiall her. Go thou and gain news of
Ariella, or my heart will be broken within
me-"
"Nay then, since thou askest. that will

At this moment the clamor of the people
arose shrilly: 1.-THE maideni The maidenl
Give us news of the maiden on whom the
miracle was wrought. Come forth, Malachi,
thou dOuble-laced Pharisee, and account for
herP'
Upon this Malachi flung open the door.
His disordered appearance and agitated face
added to the jeers of the crowd. As soon as
he began to speak, hum of sarcastic SYM
pathy arose.
