When the drum and fife | sounded, he made his appearance, at first with visible vexa- tion, behind the dark,dust-begrimmed window of his residence. Soon, however, he grew more amiable, and, opening his | window, to everybody’s astonishment, locked out and laughed ‘heartily at the ourang-outapg’s gambols. Nay, he paid so | lurge a piece of silver for the entertainment that the whole | city talked of it. | ‘The next morning the collection of animals went on their |War, They had scarcely made a league on their journey, | when the stranger went to th? post-house, demanding, to the postmaster’s amazement, a post chaise and horses, and set forth by the same gate and on the same road taken by the menagerie. The whole city was furious at not being able to learn whither he was going. It was night when the stranger again returncd to the gate in the post-chaise. A person was sitting with him in the vebicle, with his hat pressed closely down over his face and his mouth and ears bound iv a silk handkerchief. The gate-keeper considered: it his duty to speak to the second stranger, and demand his passport. His answer was surly, and he growled out in some unintelligible language. “Tt is my nephew,” said the stranger politely, putting several silver coins into the gate-kceper’s band; *“he under+ stunds very little German. “What he said jast now was | steariiig at our being delayed here.” | “Ah? if he is your nephew, sir,’ anawered the gateskeep- er, “of course lve can enter without a passport. © He will livein your house, no doubt 2” “Certainly,” said the stranger; **and will probably re- main with me a long white.” The gate-keeper madé’‘no furthér ‘opposition, and «the stranger and his nephew pasecd inte the city.’ “The burgo- master and the whole town were much displeased with the conduct of the gate-keeper. Me should at least have taken notice of the nephew's language; it would then have been an easy matter to decide to what wation be and his uncle be- longed. The gute-keeper asserted, in reply to these com- pla! ts, that it was neither Italian of French, but had sounded a-good deal and, unless bis ears had deceived hint, the young geutieman bad'said distinctly, * Ros Lif!” | By this the gate-keeper helped himsclf out of bis scrape, and far the same time, assisted the young man toa nome, for jnothiie was talked of now imthe» city but the young En- 135} glishman. like English ; The young m:n, huwerer, was no grea‘er frequenter of the great speed through the rooms, frém window (o window, the old stranger pursuing him witha huntiny whip'in his hand, aud often failing to overtake him, But it sometimes seomed to the crowd below that he had succeeded in catching the young nan; fir they could hear, issuing frony the ‘ooms above, cries of anguish and sounds of blows. the city took such deep concern in this cruel treatment o! the you hfu’ stra ger, that they induced the burgoma-ter at last to take some notice of the affair. He wrote a letter to the strange gentleman, in which he alluded im vigorous terms to his harsh treatinent to his ucphew, and threatened him, in case similar scenes continued to transpire, with taking the un- fortunate young man under his especia) protection. Imagiae the surprise of the burgomaster when he saw the stranger entering his doors for the only time in ten years. Lhe old gentleman excused his conduct towards his nephew on the plea of the pecaliar directions of the parents of the young man who had entrusted him with his education. He stated that the youth was in most respects clever and intel- ligent, bat that he jearned languages with great difficulty ; that he wished so earnestly to make h's nephew an accom- plished German scholar, that he might afterwards take the liberty to introduce him to the society of Grunwiesel, and the progress made by him was so discouraging, that on many occasions there was no better course to pursue than to beat it into him by a suitable castigation. ‘The burgomaster ex- pressed himself perfectly satistied with this explanation, re- coulmended a little more moderation in the infliction of chastisement, aad reported iu the evening at the beer-saloon, that he had rarely met, in his whole lite, a better informed and more agreeable gentleman than the stranger. ‘* The only pity is,” he added, “ that he goes se little into society ; but [ think, as soon as his nephew can spcak a little Geman, he wil visit our circle ofteney.” By this single incident the opinion of the city was com- pletely changed. They regarded the stranger as a weil-bred man, felt a desire to cultivate his acquaintanee, and con- sidered it to be periectiy in order, whea now and then a frightfal shriek was heard to issue from the desolate house. » He is giving his nephew a lesson in German," the Gran- wieselonians said, and went on without paying further atten- tion to the matter. Three months passed by, and the tuition lin German seemed to have come to a close; but the old man went astep further There lived in the city an old, infirm | Frenchman, who gave lessons in dancing to the yoahg people. This man the stranger suinmioved to his house, and told him lthat he desired him to teach his nephew to dance. | here was nothing, the Frenchman secretely declared, so wonderful in all the world as these’ dancing-lessons. The ‘nephew, a tall, slim, young man, with rather short legs, made his appearance, be said, in a red frock, his bair nicely ‘curled, wide trousers, and white gloves. He spoke Jiitle, land with a foreign accent, and seemed, iu the beginning, ‘rather intelligent and docile; but he frequently broke out |into the most ridiculous leaps, dancing the wildest towrs, in which he made entrechats which surpassed all the dancing |musters he bad ever seea or beard of. When it was attempted 'to check his extravagances, he would pull off the delicate \ dancing-shoes from his feet, throw them at the Prenchman’s At the vephew would at once begin to bowl in the most fi on the upper sashes of the windows, and talk all the time bowling-green or the tavern than his uncle was; but he fur- | nisbed the people much food for conversation lu auother Way. ; — Sh nes Lt happened now, not unfrequentiy, that in the hitherto} silent hduse would be heard w fright!ubayrear and Shtickicg, | ‘ : : a ; ‘ sO tbat the passers-bDy would ston before the Louse ln Crowes, , : er a ae ee moana anh pge up at tire wir ws. ine young Frneiishinan twouid } sg &. ‘od frock and «ree! iwi!

They settled in their own minds that the yeung gentleman possessed great talents for society ; and the ladies in the place all congratulated them- sclves—suffering as they did from a great lack of gentlemen —on the acquisition of so vigorcus a dancer for the coming winter. One morning, the maids, returning from market, described to their masters and mistresses a singular incident. They had seen an elegant carriage standing before the stranger's house, and a servant in rich livery holding the step. Two gentlemen had entered the carriage, the servant sprung into the boot behind, and the carriage—only imagine it !—drove straight off to the house of the burgomaster. — Everywhere people were in raptures with the two strangers, and regretted only that they had not made their acquaintance eailier. The old gentleman showed himself to be a well-bred, ‘sensible man, who laughed a little, to be sure, in everything he said, rendering it ditficalt to know whether he was in jest Fe earnest; but who talked of the weather, the scenery, and |the picnies to the cave in the mountain, so politely and \ehrewdly that every one was delighted. But the nephew' He bewitched everybody; he won all hearts. As for his exterior, it was impossible to call him exagtly handsome. he lower part of his face, especially his jaw, projected too far, and his complexion was extremely dark ; while occasion- ally he made the most remarkable grimaces, shutting bis eyes, un] snapping his tceth together quecrly ; but people found the shzpe of his features exceedingly interesting “ Ne is an Englishman,” people said ; “they are all so. must not be too particular with en Englishman.” Towards his old uncle he was very submissive ; for when- ever he began to jump too vivaciously about the room, or as he seemed particulary inclined to do, draw his feet up ander him on his chair, a single stern glance from the old tan served to bring him to order at once. And how could | oue be angry with the young man, when his uncle, in every house, said to the lady, “ ny nephew is a little raw and ill- bred, madam; but I anticipate much from the mollifying | effect produced by your society, and I implore your forgive- _aess for any gaucheries he may beppen to be guilty of.” | ‘has was the nephew at length introduced to the gay world, and all Grunwicsel spoke of nothing else for the two The old gentleman re- nounced his babits of retirement, and seemed to have wholly altered bis modes of thought and life. In the afternoons he | weut, wita his nephew, to the-cave in the mountain, where ‘the more important citizens of Grunwiesel drank beer and Here the nephew showe] himself a skillful muster of the gime; for he never threw less than five or six j calls, Occasionally a strange humour seized him.

The old gentleman, at such incidents as these, was wont to beg tev thousand pardons of the burgomaster and the other gentlemen, for his nephew's eccentricities. They, in reply, would laugh, ascribe such conduet to his: youthful spirits, declare they had been just the same in their youth, and ad- inire the young springal, as.they called him, immensely. In this way the nephew of the stranger came, before long, to be held ig high favour in the city and environs. No one could recall ever having seen a young man like him in Grun- wiesel before; and he was, indeed, the strangest apparition which had ever visited their borders. No one could aceuse him of cultivation, of any possible kind, except, perhaps, a little dancing. Latin and Greek were both Greck to him. Ata reund game at the burgomaster’s house, it once fell to his lot to be obliged to write something, and it was found that he could not even sign his name. [n geography he made the most stupendous blunders ;. for he made no hesitation in locating a German city in France, or a Danish one in Poland. He had read nothing; he had studied nothing ; and the pricst often shook his head significantly over the dreaéful ignorance of the young gentlemaa. Still, in spite of this, everything he said and did was held to be excellent; for he was impu- dent enough to insist always on being right, and the last words of every remark he made were: “ I understand this much better than you.” The scenes of his greatest: triumphs, however, were the Granwiesel balls. No one danced so perseveringly, none so vigorously as he; no one made such bold, such graceful jumps. His uncle dressed him for such occasions in the newest and handsomest fashions; and; although it was im- possible to make his clothes fit, yet everybedy considered his dress charming. The gentlemen, to be sure, took offence at these balls, at the new style which he introduced. Hitherto the burgomaster had always opened the bali in person, and the most highly-born young men exercised the right of regu- lating the rest of the dances; but since the yonng Koglish- 'mau’s arrival, a total change had been brought about. Le would seize the prettiest girl by the hand without Jeave or ‘license, take his place with her im the figure, manage every - thing precisely as he pleased, and constitute himself, without ceremony, lord, master, and king of the bail. But as the ‘ladies found these matters extremely elegant, the young meu ‘dared not venture on resistance, and: the cccentric nephew ‘retained unopposed his self-assumed dignity and ravk. | Such was the behaviour adopted by the nephew as balls ‘and parties in Granwiesel. As it is too often the case in ‘other matters, bad habits come into vogue much easier than good ones, and a new and striking fashion, especially if it be ‘ridiculous, has ever something in it highly attractive for the young, who have not yet formed an accurate or sensible The judgment of themselves and the world. So it was in Gruu- rightful | wiesel with the nephew and bis extraordinary manners. For, d even! when the younger world perceived that the young stranger a won more admiration than he incurred rebuke for his awk- ‘ward habits, bis loud laughter, and his insolent answers to The old gentieman would give war ; by the Sie hts seniors, and that these passed merely as evidences of his whter| spiritual nature they thought to themselves : “ Nothing is
