It was a Very curious house, and bad once been inhabited by people of some mark and |ike- jibood. The gables were richly ornamented wish bas-relie/s of remarkable intricacy ; the upper windows projected quite over the footway, and were set in deep carved mould- ings; and the old arched doorway was ac~ tually emhowered in a portico laden with the most elaborate wood-carvings of fruit, iver | the he said. when she had standing back somewhat | grandmother must not die. 9 be | to this city, and I know not where to seek | shops, } and hesitating foliage, and grotesque heads of birds and animals. Beautiful as it was, and is (for the house is yet standing), it was used hy a merchent, to whom it belonged, as a store- house for wool, and Elspeth and her grand- child lived rent-free in the lower rooms, and took care of the property. They were very poor» so poor, indoed, that when Bertha was a little child, they poust have starved may a winter, but for I am a stranger to that is for what Lead me your and you require. we will purchase all needful.’ He spoke to her soothingly and tenderly, as if she were achild,and placed his heavy purse in her trembling hand. Wher strove to thank him with her quivering lips, } accents, he only shook his head, and bade her hasten on and be silent. There was a great abundance that evening upon the little table in frau Elpseth’s cham- ber, and a bright fire glowing merrily upon the hearth; and above all, there were glad and grateful hearts beneath that roof. ‘The blessings of be noble sir!’ murmured theold woman, feebly, from her bed, when he rose from chair beside the fire, and turned Bertha said nothing’ but as he reached the door, she bent down and kissed his hand in the old simple German fashion; and the gentleman did not prevent her; but whea she had done it, he laid his hand upon her shining hair, inclined his lofty head towards her, kissed her gently on the forehead, and without another word, went out, and closed Heaven upon you, the arm- to go the door. Bertha’s heart fluttered painfully, and her cheeks grew pale and red by turns, as she stood for some moments rooted to the spot. Then, with a sigh anda smile, she her pretty head, began humming the burthen of an old song, and busied herself in prepars shook | ing some warm messes for her sick charge. From that moment the Frau Elspeth began to mend, and inthe course of a few weeks was restored to ber usual health. But the st.anger did not on that account cease to visit or befriend her, four or five times a week; and scarcely a day passed on which they did not receive some fresh proof of his bounty. Now it was an easy chair, or 4 warm rug, or an eider- down quilt for the old lady; or a piece of fine wooilen cloth for a cloak for Bertha; or, perchance, a lamp for evening use, for it was still winter time. But more frequently there came baskets of wine, and meat, and fish, and dried fruits. And such rare and delicious conserves as neither Elspeth nor Bertha had ever tasted or heard of before. They came also in so great a profusion that the grandmother had to eutreat him to be less liberal. it was quite plain, she said, that the gentleman could know nothing of housekeeping; at which he smiled in his grave way, and said that he had generally left those things to the care of persons who understood them better than himself He came regularily He was a strange, calm, silent man; very unassuming and kind, but withal so Stately in his look and bearing, and so reserv- ed in his conversation, that it would have been she | ess! as he had But Bertha, instead of looking, expected joyful and surprised, wrung hands together, and turned deathly pale. ‘Alas! alas!’ she said ‘| wh bitterly, “ what | shall | do? what shall I do? A stern change passed over the face of the wooer. He dropped the hand which he had been holding, and drew hack. “Bertha,” he said in a low distinct voice, mn “ why do you refuse me? She began to weep. At thismomenta little boat containing two men came up the middle ot the river. One man was rowing, and other was standing up in his place, shading his eyes with his hand and looking in the di- rection of Boppart. Bertha started, and looked intently at the boat—her colour came and went—she tried to speak, and her voice faltered. “My Lord,” she said turning away her head, ** i—I love—another.”’ The boat came nearer and nearer. There was a long silence, so long that at last she looked round, The Duke was still standing in the very attitude in which he had last spoken, except that his head was bent upon his breast, and his eyes fixed on the ground. The mute grief ef his attitude struck Bertha to the heart. She crept timidly to his side, and, as she had done once before, upon the first night of their meeting, took his band in both her own, and covered it with tears and kisses. He lifted his lofty brow, and looked at her sadly and tenderly. ‘You should have told me this before Bertha,” he said, very gently. ‘But yet it is not yonr fault, for I never spoke of love to you tillnow. I thought to have made you my Wife—to have taught you all the wisdom and poetry of life—to have—but enough of this! The dream is past, and it is vain to dwe!! uponits illusions, Who isfthat, Ber- tha ?” The boat was by this time moored to the bank, a little lower down than where they stood, and a young man was hastening to-~ wards them. “ Bertha !” tha ! “This is he, my Lord,” said she, blushing and smiling through her tears The Duke paused and looked steadily at the young pair before him. Then he turned somewhat paler than usual, a shade seemed to pass over his brow, and his lip quivered visibly. “Heaven bless you, Bertha,” he said, “and you, my young friend. I shal! not forget either of you. Adieu.” He stepped forward, and once more kissed her on the forehead. It was for the last time. Then he drew his hat down lower up- on his brow, and walked swiftly away. In less than an hour a carriage rolled out of the gates of the Rheiniseher Hotel, and took the road to Cologne. Many weeks had not elapsed when Max Jugel received an appointment at the irons works of Iohenrain, which enabied him to marry his pretty Bertha without further delay. It came unanimously, and he could never discover the name of his unknown benefac- tor; but as hoherain lies in the territories of Nassau, it was conjectured by many to have been the gift of his‘noble and generous rival. Bertha and Max are stilldiving; but the Duke of Nassau has been dead some twenty years. Hemarried a noble lady, the daugh-~ ter of a royal house, and was succeeded by his son, the present sovereign. : And this, reader, is a true story of the Rhine. he cried, waving his cap, ‘‘Ber- | furnace her | | the great charm of existence.

How careful, then, should each mother be of herself in her treatment of her child. How prayerful, and how serious, and how earnest to write the eternal truths of God on his mind, those truths which shall be his guide and teacher when her voice shail be silent in death, and her lips no longer move in prayer in his behalf, in com- mending her dear child to her covenant God. This isto certify, that in May last, I was sorely troubled with what the doctors pro- nounce pleurisy, and other complaints.

This painful disease isusually followed by general prostration on account of the great waste of nerve tissue and insufficient supplyof nerve force to maintain the functions of the vital organs. The common cause of Neural- gia and Rheumatic Pains is depraved Nutri- tion arising from Derangements of the Sto- mach, Mal-assimilation of food, and Poor Blood.

Walker’s California Vin- egar Bitters are a purely Vegetable preparation, made chietly from the na- tive herbs found on the lower ranges of | the Sierra Nevada mountains of Califor- | nia, the medicinal properties of which | are extracted therefrom without the use of Alcohol. The question is almost daily asked, ‘‘ What is the cause of the unparalleled success of VINEGAR BIr- TERS?” Our answer is, that they remove the cause of disease, and the patient re- covers his health. They are the great blood purifier and a life-giving principle, a perfect Renovator and Invigorator of the system. Never before in the history of the world has a medicine been compounded possessing the remarkable qualities of Vingear Birrers in healing the sick of every disease manis heir to. They are a gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, relieving Congestion or Inflammation of the Liver and Visceral Organs, in Bilious Diseases. The properties of Dr. WaLKer’s VINEGAR BiTTERs are Aperient, Diaphoretic, Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant, Sudorific, Altera- tive, and Anti-Bilious. R. H.
