slight exclamation of surprise, the maiden extended her arms towards him, while heavy tears rolled over her fair cheek, the first she had shed since the defeat of her best hopes.

Jowanda bent towards his sister, and clasped her in his arms; but as Komari felt the straining fervor of his embrace, and the hot tears that mingled with her own, she started back, and tremblingly inquired: "Ah! there must be some new terror to affect thee thus, my brother. Speak-tell me why am I thus alone-why have I thus passed long hours communing with my own sad thoughts, while my dear mother and kind companions solace me no more?" "Alas! sweet sister," replied Jowanda, "have none told thee, then—none prepared thee for thy sentence? Knowest thou not that the assembled chiefs have doomed thee to destruction, and that mine, as no common hand, was armed for the deed of horror? Komari! thy loveliness and sorrow have unnerved me. I came hither, urged by the compelling sense of duty to my race and family, but thus do I now abandon my murderous design, cursing the serpent-tongues that won me to accept the charge ;" and so saying, the priest disengaged a poignard from his girdle, and hurled it through the open window of the apartment.

mon means: the lips of his priest have spoken it."

Jowanda left the palace, and hurried forth to cast himself in prayer at Krishna's shrine; but the fiat of the council had gone forth, and his words availed nothing. Poison, in the many shapes known in an Eastern harem, was soon tried, but the pure system of their intended victim repelled the means, or acted as their antidote, and still the helpless maiden lived in doomed solitude; while her frantic mother, confined to a distant chamber, poured forth maniacal ravings against the destroyers of her child.

Hours had passed away-those long, long hours, in which the heart receives no comfortand days-every one of which is as a century of endurance to the brain oppressed with thought-yet still Komari sat with closed eyes, calmly awaiting the doom which she now prayed might speedily arrive. Her cheek had lost its roundness, her eye its light. She had contemplated death so long, that she had ceased to desire to live, and no other emotion was apparent but the flickering smile which hovered on her cheek, when a new footstep The maiden started, then clung to her was heard approaching her apartment.

The brother listened. He saw the light of heroic purpose beam from her eye; the beautiful resignation of filial obedience stealing over her face; and overcome with tenderness and grief, he hid his face in the folds of his ample robe, and hurried from the apart

ment.

Again Jowanda stood in the council of the princes, and to their inquiring glances he thundered forth denunciations of ruin and destruction to all who plotted against his sister's life. "Woe, woe!" he cried, "to the land and to the prince whose safety is so purchased. The curse of Krishna is on them and on all who put forth their hand against the innocent and pure. The princess Komari is the favorite of the sun-god, who has bestowed upon her a talisman of rare virtue, and he who seeks her injury shall perish by no com

The maiden took the proffered cup, and rising as she did so, replied:-"True; I much need rest, both for my heart and brain, and the kusumba draught will surely fail me not. Bear, I charge thee, to my father my humble reverence, and tell him that I fear not death, but rather thank him for ending thus my sorrows. He gave me life, and has full right to reclaim it at my hands. From my birth was I marked for sacrifice, and I thank him that I have lived so long. I gratefully accept the bridegroom he ordains, and bow my head to his command."

So saying, the maiden raised the jewelled cup, and drained it to its dregs; but having done so, it fell suddenly from her grasp, as a clash of arms resounded through the harem, and Prince Zalim, rushing into the apartment, clasped Komari in his arms. "You are saved, sweet one," he cried, "you are saved! the palace is ours! but we must fly

at once, for the hosts of Sangram are upon
us."
He paused, but as he did so, a shrill
laugh broke upon his ear, and, starting back,
his glance fell upon the fiend-like counte-
nance of the aged slave, who pointed exulting-
ly to the fallen cup. Zalim, snatched it from
the ground. "Aye," he cried," is this, thrice-
cursed hag, thy work-and dost thou triumph
in thine infernal office?" He said no more;
but, seizing the struggling woman in his arms,
bore her without, and, casting her from the
nearest rampart, watched her fall, down, far
down, among the crashing boughs of the dark-
ening foliage, to the lairs of the beasts that
prowled below, and then, returning to the
couch of his affianced bride, clasped his arms
around her dying form, vainly beseeching her
to bless him with her love. But, alas! in that
fond embrace joined the enemy whom none
could baffle; and so it was, that when the
soldiers of Sangram Singh forced their way
into the harem of the Rana Umra (as soon
they did), defiance met them even there, even |
from that couch where lay the Jeitpoor Rajah,
Zalim Singh, with his fair bride, the beauti-
ful Komari,united by the bonds of death!

The Rajah Sangram Singh withdrew his hosts, and the land was left in peace; but its prince was a heart-stricken man, aged before his time, and desolate in the palace of his fathers. He gave alms freely, and mostly so to the priestly class who ministered at the richly-sculptured mausoleum, where, night and day, burned vases of perfumed oil before the last resting-place of his murdered child and of her broken-hearted mother.

ODE TO HOPE.

BY JOHN MASON GOOD.

From Chambers's Edinburgh Journal.
O GENTLE Hope! whose lovely form
The plunging sea-boy, 'midst the storm,
Sees beckoning from the strand,
If yet thy smile can chase the sighs
From love and adverse fate which rise,
O view this lifted hand!

Through dire despair's tremendous shade,
Supported by thy secret aid,

The troubled spirit flies.

Thy sight sustains his drooping powers,
Thy finger points to brighter hours,.
And clears the distant skies.

Then haste thee, Hope, and o'er my head,
While yet impervious tempests spread,

Obtrude thy magic form:

O give me, ere gay youth decline,
To view the fair Zelinda mine,

And I'll despise the storm.

Long years in the bloom of her beauty and youth,
She rejected all suitors, and guarded her truth;
Sustained by the hope, no persuasions could move,
That Sir Edmund was living, and true to her love.

At length o'er the sea a gray palmer there came,
Like those of her lover, had fallen in fight,
Who told how a Knight, with a crest and a name
As at Centa he warr'd with the Saracens' might.

The tale was believed; yet in Isabel's breast
Nor fled, till her father has bade her decide
Hope nestled the closer, and whisper'd her rest;
The day when another shall call her his bride.

Then her cheek lost its bloom, and her eye lost its

on the eve of the bridal, the lady has gone
To the keep's highest turret, all wretched and
Where, praying, she raised her wan face to the
sky,
"Oh! grant me to see him once more ere I die."

And lo! a Knight's lance flashes bright in the sun,
The river he's forded, the castle he's won;
Yes! 'tis he! Ah! what raptures the Knight's
bosom swell,

As his glance meets the form of his own Isabel.

At the entrance she greets him with one holy kiss.
All his toils are repaid by that moment of bliss ;
For that meeting how fondly his true heart has
beat,

To lay all his titles and gold at her feet.

But short were his transports, he sees with alarm
That her light, shadowy form, faintly clings to his

For more than an hour this lasted, the President being unable to command silence, and none of the independent supporters of the Ministers coming forward with courage to face and to quell the storm. Singular to say, this extravagant outburst, excited by M. Berryer, was against the elder Bourbons, against M. Berryer's own principles and dynasty, whilst M. Guizot's curious preference of Louis the Eighteenth to Napoleon was certainly the act of a constitutional Royalist.

REFINEMENT.-In Dresden, a little ragged child was heard to call from the window of a mean house to her opposite neighbor-"Please, Mrs. Muller, mother sends her best compliments, and, if it's fine weather, would you go a-begging with her to-morrow!"-Morning Post.

THERE died lately at Colmar, in the Haut Rhin, an Israelite, at the age of ninety-eight, leaving an immense fortune. This he accumulated by buying and selling land, by purchasing reversions, and by granting loans of money with usurious interest. He was blind for the last twenty years of his life, and yet examined, personally, all the property purchased before he concluded the bargain, which he took care should be a good one for himself. When

The French are, however, so stark staring mad in their absurd fear and jealousy of the etranger, that they cannot be considered rational beings on that subject. There can be no use in arguing with or of them. The present result of this commence-land was the object he went over every part of it, ment of the Parliament's campaign must, however, be noted. M. Guizot had succeeded in neutralizing the Legitimists in the Chamber, and making onehalf of them vote with him. Now this is undone, and all the Legitimists are in opposition. The Molé party, opining that the King is vexed at the Regent's dotation not being brought forward, has deserted to opposition at the same time; whilst M. Thiers brings his band in support of Count Molé. This makes a formidable coalition, and the general opinion is that M. Guizot cannot long resist it.

One is curious to see what the French will think of our debate, of the lukewarm definition of his alliance with France given by Sir Robert Peel, of the use made of the admissions of MM. Thiers and Guizot by Lord John Russell and Lord Palmerston, and of the declaration of Lord Brougham that he knew France and the French much better than M. Thiers and Count Molé, the present leaders of the French opposition. But we shall have French comments on this subject next week.-Examiner.

A LOST WATCH.-About the year 1793, when the antimony mines at Glendinning, in the parish of Westerkirk, Dumfriesshire, were in full operation, and on a day when the miners had met, as usual, at the Knock (a noted rendezvous for regalement), one of the company, named Andrew Johnston, observing the ploughman of Bonees at work in an adjoining field, went and invited him to go for a glass, offering to plough till he returned. It may be easily supposed, Andrew not being oversteady, that it would take some pains to keep the plough right, and "draw a gude straught." However that may be, Andrew dropped his watch while

FULFILMENT OF A DREAM.-A young man named John Gray, residing at Cinderford, before he went to his usual work, at the Crump Meadow coal-pits, told his mother that he had dreamed he was at his work, and that a large stone fell upon him and killed him. He then went to his employment, but had not been in the pit many hours, before an immense block of stone, as much as four or five men could move, fell upon him. He lingered somewhat less than an hour in the most indescribable agony, when death released him from his sufferings. A coroner's inquest has been held, and a verdict of "Accidental death" returned. Thus has an aged mother been deprived of her only surviving son, having had another killed in a similar manner about four years since.-Bath Journal.

CHATEAUBRIAND.-The following anecdote respecting Chateaubriand's grammatical construction, is at least amusing. "In the year 1829," says the Foreign Quarterly Review, "Pinard, the eminent printer, of Paris, was engaged by the bookseller, Ladvocat, to print the collected works of Chateaubriand. Every one must be aware, that in dealing out types for the use of the compositors in a printing-office, it is not necessary to supply all the letters of the alphabet in equal numbers. For example, a very few of the letter z will be required in proportion to hundreds of the letters A or E. Being supplied with type, distributed in the usual relative proportions, the compositors in Pinard's office set to work on the new edition of Chateaubriand. After the lapse of a day or two, one of the compositors applied to the foreman of the office for a fresh supply of letter A. The foreman expressed some surprise, but finding that the man had not a single letter A remaining, he ordered a fresh supply. Presently another compositor, employed on another volume of the work, and in quite a different part of the office, entered the foreman's room; and declared that he too had used all his letters A. This information created some dismay, and a suspicion arose that a portion of the type must have been stolen ; but the compositor declared his conviction that no theft had been committed, and that if the number of A's in the composed sheets were counted, they would be found to correspond with the number of types distributed to him. Whilst this point was under discussion, a third compositor made his appearance, and announced that he had used all his letters N. Struck with the singularity of these facts, Pinard mentioned the subject to Raymond, who has since then rendered himself eminent by his philological learning. What can be the reason,' inquired Pinard, that so many letters A and are required in printing Chateaubriand's work?' The reason is obvious, replied Raymond; and you will find that in proportion as the celebrated writer employs ▲ and N, he spares ■ and 1. For
