'l‘ue ollimir reappeared with the lady ‘leaning on his arm. wliosc .tt.‘c. a could be tscerned through the thick roll, was very beautiful. bhe trembled as she approached the door

“ Madt,-tnoiselle.” whispered the guide kindly pressing her hand, “ take courage, but answer promptly whatever questions the Emperor pro- poses, he dr-tests hesitation.” ’I‘heti ushering lter into a spacious apsrtrnent. he bowed and retired.

The trembling: girl, perceiving Napoleon. on whom her l'otidi:st hopes depended, forgot herself and her tirnitliiy : she thought only of Napoleon, exclaimed, in a voice choked with emotion.- “ Mercy. sire ! I ask tor mercy and pardon.”- She could articulate no more. Josephine stepped from her partial cottcealment. and then approach- ing the group, contributed by her sympatltiziog wordsofencourat_3ement, tti restore the courage of the young pctititioner as she hsde her rise.

‘-' Your petition, Zllademnisello,” said he.

Ilcnrietta Arm-and (for tltat was her name. looked imploringly at the Emperor. and exclaim- ed :——

" Ah,sire, I ask pardon for Louie Delmarre. who is cottilemticd to be shot to.monow, Oh. grant hitn your most royal pardon.”

A cloud gathered on the brow of Napoleon as he interrupt:-d lter wit§t-—-

“ A ilcserter, madam, he has twice deserted, —No. he must he an example for the rest of the regiment.”

“ But the cause of his desertion," cried Hen- rietta in agony :“ he was compelled to join tlto ttrttty against his will.”

" What were the causes ol' his desertion," interrupted Napoleon.

" ‘ o weeks since.” answered Henrietta, " he received the news that an only parertt,a mother, sire, was on her death bed, and longed. day and night, to behold lter sort again. oiiis knew that relief or release was iiiipossilslc. l-lis mind was ﬁlled with one thungltt-tlist she might close her eyes forever, era tlicy rested on a son tiho loved so fondly.”

“ Did slio die!" asked the Empress with interest.

“ No. 1\'lad:i.'ne," replied Ilonrictta. “ she at length rt-covcrcti. Hut ltztrdly hail l.ouis received her lilt-ssirig, lt».-iog folded in her arms. ere he was torn frnin hcr grasp by the t-liicerii ofjti~'tice, who dra2:_-cd llllll hither. U ! must he die? Mercy. sire, I l)t‘§t!€t‘lI you.

“ It iv.-is." said lleitticita. hcsitating and color- ing. " it wa.<—iliat he heard that l was to marry Conrad l"erani, tthomldctest as much as he does.”

“ Are you his sister, that he fools so great an interest in your fate l" asked the lirti cror.

“O, ito, sire, " said lletirietta, her lovely cheek assuming still deeper the line of the rose, “ I am only his cousin.”

“ Alt ! only his cousin.” repeated Napoleon. glancing at Joaepliiiie with a half suppressed smile.

“ Oh, sire,” cried Henrietta. “ think only of the anguish of his widowed mother. when she recollccts that the itlT—~ciion for her is tlte cause of his death. Wlu:t-.,” shi» continued, “ can ldo to save 1” and I'll: pint ::irl forgetting the pre- sence of royalty, bot.-i it.io roars —'l‘he kind- hetirterl Joscpliiuc ‘_'lill (‘Ml at the Emperor, tvitli eyes expressive oi‘ .,y.i.ptitlt_v. 7‘ll0 noticed the workings oi‘ his fit-ta. iind ;elt,:tionce it would be very uiicertaitt tvhcthcr Lottie Dellmare was to be shot the next morning. '

Nspoletitt approached the weeping girl. She hastily. looked tip ititd dricd her lt.‘IIl‘8. "Mademoi- selle, " ssitl he . “ would you give your life to save his? would you die, could Louis Dt'lln.IN‘.‘ be restored to life. liberty, and his itiotliei l"

Henrietta started back, esdly pale, liioking ﬁxedly at the Emperor for a moment, then turn in away, she buried her ace in her hands.

After a silence of sortie minutes. Henrietta looked tip, an air of lixod determination re.-ting upon her face. “ I am willing," she said in a low voice.

Nlpolettn looked at her in surprise, as if ht- had not anticipated so ready an answer to his proposal.

“I will see you again," said he; " in the meantime scespt such apartments for your accom- modation as I shall direct.”

As soon as the door closed upon the fair peti- tioner, Napoleon walked to the tviuilow, against which Josephine was leaning, and said : " lsce liuw it is : Louis Dellmsrre is the lover of this

ounu irirl. True to woman's nature she has htlV':d uiﬂit-tiltv trt lien for his tclt-sac."

'- How strong must be the love the belt! for liirn." said the Empress.

" Ah!" responded he," I have a mind to

erious, Louis can be pardoned without death of Henrietta."

Napoleon drew nearer the window ; they converscd in I low tom-.

Henrietta stood itlone in a magnificent spart- rrietit. Hours unobservc-d.so intensely was she absorbed in reverie ; ti small folded paper has tightly grasped in her hatid. On it were traced hese words: “ A deserter is condemned by the laws of the army to suffer death. If yoti wish Delmarre restored to liberty, lhe in an in your power. Ere the day dawns, he ay be on his way to join his rnotlier, whom he so mtich loves.’

“ Ah ! do not I love him hi-ti. too 7" murmur- ed_ the young llcnrieiia. Pressing her hands upon her heart. as if to still its tutnultous heat- ing. she paced the aparttttent. The door opened, an the Clicvslier do Merville entered. e paused ere he articulated “ Mademoiselle.”

" I am ready." replied Ilenrietta, “ my deci- sion is made.”

De lllerville appeared to comprehend the import of her words. He looked ttpon her iti reverence as well as admiration, as she stood with the high resolve irnprcstied upon her beautiful

r w.

it Follow me, Mademoiselle,” said be. They traversed long corridors, and numerous suites of sttperb apartments, and dcscendittg a staircase, quickly reached an outer court contmunicatitig with the guard liotise. Eiiteritig this. lleiiricttti was iislicred by her guide ittto a small apartment, where she was soon left to herself.

On the chair wits tlung a tiniforin of the regi- ment to which Louis belomed. On the table, lay a large plumcd cap. Henrietta comprehen- di-il it in it moment Qu:ck|y ltabiting herself in the unil'orm,slic stood before the mirror, gathered iipltt-t beautiful brown l.|'8.~b‘€S in it knot, and placed the cap upon her head. She almost utter- ed a cry of joy at the success of her transforma- tinn;slie knew that she was to be le tothe fatal ground at the tnornini:’s dawn. 'l he bullet which was to have struck Louis to the heart, but she sltrntik not back. Love triutnphed over timid woman's nature. “ Louis’ mother wil bless me'in her heart.” she whispered. “ Louis himself will never forget ttie. Ah, often has he sworn iliat he loved me better than all things else.” Drawing a lock of ltis raven hair from her bosom she prei-sud it to her lips, and then she breathed ii prayer to llct-ven.

_Mnrnin-_r dawned. The sound of foottrten aroused llctirietta. She started up~—graspcd the hand of hair. awaiting her stttiiinons. ‘lilie dotir opened and two soldiers entered. repeatiiig the name of Louis Deltitarre ‘. they iiudtlvnly led her liirtlititdie-. 'l‘he soldiers. tiliose htilleitt were to pierce the lit-ztri of Louis, had talceti their stand and otily ll\|'.lllt"tl the word ol t'UlTl|lllll|d (min the l'ilIl[lF|'0|'. who was siatioetoil at the ttiitdoiv. coztiinariding a view of tho ithole sceitt-. ‘-(llt !”t-rictl Jtnwpliitie, tvlio stood by him. hutconcealcd by the ivirtduw drapery front the view cf those ht.-low.

“ Stop,” cried Napoleon, frotn the window “ Louis Delmarrc is pardoned. l revoke the sentence. ’

A loud hurst ofttpplatise from the lips of the soldiers followed this tIlllltlllnt‘t'.lIlEIll. No one ol' them but loved and respected his comratle.

Ilenrietta was like one in a dream, but it gleam ofdelicious hope thrilled her soul, she felt the dawnings of happiuers break upon her heart.
