Some years ago, au awkward cliap in Westers New York, who obtained liis living by forging in a blacksmith shop, hired a iiorso one day to carry a load of wrought nails to the next town, a few miles distant. While descending a steep hill, the -smith gave hia hor?e a few extra cuts, thinking to accelerate hid «peed in a place where graduation seconded the motions of the wagon, but the steed stumbled, floundered into the ditch, and kicked the— bucket. The blacksmith, upou turning tho body over, discovered that the anatomical harmony ol the beast's neck *iM destroyed, that the spine was dislocated beyond the" bone-setter's art, and that in fact the 'boss' was dead. With a rueful countenance he repaired to the owner ofthe nag, and a^ked what Was to be done. The reply was, -'You must pay for the horse-"'— The blacksmith demurred, and went to consult a lawyer. Th"; lawyer happened to bo away ¿from home, bjjt his wilet who was prone to mischievous fun, thought she saw in the-clieiifc food for a little sport, and inviting him to cuter tiie house, remarked that she sometimes gave legal advice iu her Jinsband's , «aa requested htm to" state" his case plainly. "Very well," said the blacksmith, seating him- :self, leisurely, "I'll spose a ease." "If you please—tliat will do as well as to state your own," said the handsome attorney. "Well! yer see its just like this: tí'posinyouwas an old hoss—an1 I should drive you to mill. And «•fiosiu 1 should cut you up the leas test mite on thc flank, aad you should rear up and kick up and break the lirecchiu, and finally yet* should fall iuto a ditch, and break yer cussed heel:—who'd pay fbr yc?—Would IV asked the excited Yulen.i, in a voice of thuuder. 'No, I'd be hammered into horseshoe nails, and driven into the devil's cloven foot afore I'd pay the Ehstred cent!' ¡;jj^i;^i;^^^~ The lady decided that lie had a clear case, aud might go ahead without fear of damages.

SEBASTOPOL NOT TAKEN "Go, and mayGtod.be with you and keep you. my noble Henri I" One instant more, ami lie had vaulted into his Saddle, and at tho head of his men-at-armp, was dashing out ofthe courtyard. Their lance points flashed like diamonds ia tiie moonlight, and the steel shod hoofls of their horses clanged merrily on the stones. Ere the outer gate was passed, the count turned in his saddle and waved a mute flÜOU to his loved lady; one moment his white crest mingled with his charger's (lowing mane, t-hene.vl he was gone, and thegate closed behind him. Long stood Lady Blanche in that castle door, with the moon lightingup her sad, pale (ace ; lon^ alter ber husband's loria had disappeared from her sight, she stood attentively listening to thc sound ofthe steel shod hoofs, growing faint and more fainter, till even her anxious ear could eatcii no further sound ; then witii a sigh, she turned to her desolate apartments. The drawbridge ivas secured, the portcullis lowered by her orders, and a vow she registered, to admit no stranger tothe hospitality of her hoard, until her husband returned. Many noble ladies did the same while their lords wore absent and in peril. Many teaas were .shed after thc fight of'Kouccsval- les. The Moors fought like demons. Thc smoke hung like a pall over the battle Held ; a mingled clamor as of thousands in agony, .«¡note on the ears of the despairing Frenchmen. Backwards and ior- i wards rode the knights and paladins, cheering and shouting to the men. Foremost was Count Guarinois, apparently fresh and unwearied. "On. on to thc rescue! Closeiip! France and victory!'' he shoul,ed,*but to no purpose. The column was broken and panic struck, and borne backwards in wild con'usion. The heart oi'Gunrinois.sank when he beheld the despair and wild retreat ofthe men. Knights and men-at-arms all seemed to be struck alike with despair and terror. One more pffijri the brave Guarinois made. Waving bisiaaoe on high and putting spurs to his ¿ral hint charger, he rushed forwards, his white plume streaming iu thc air, and his olear, high tones distinctly beard. "Fly not, cravens—ily not J Death to thy Moors! Forward tend conquer!" Alas it availed nothing. Thc soldiers pushed not forwards', and the Moors closed around the devoted warrior and his icw remaining men-at-arms, trusty followers, who would not leave their lord in his great peril. Surrounded as he was, he still fought with desperation, still shouting "France and victory!" The Frenchmen heard, but they only made a faint attempt of rallying to his rescue. Ilis followers were cut down one by one, yet still iie fought. Laying aside liis lance he seized his ponderous battle-axe. liaising ttimeelfin iii;- stimrps, he ¿wielded it wiih wonderful strength,and at each blow a Moorish knight .rolled in the dust, and a horse careered riderless, over that bloody plain. But one man cannot hold his ground against numbers, and a well directed blow from a lasce unhorsed the now exhausted but dauntless cavalier Guarinois. As the Moor who had overthrown him was about to cleave his head from his body, the Kiflfir Marlotes, one of thc seven Moorish king.-, das'hed up. "Slayhim not, slay h,m not.''-' lie shouted, "but boar him off» prisoner.-'' The day closed iu, and darkness .spread its welcome cloak over that held, which i ad b.vn Ihe scene ofthe bloody an 1 fetal light of licnce.svallcs. O, weep, ye men of France over your defeat! Weep, thon beautiful Lady Blanche, fbr thy brave Henri lies in a Moorish dungeon '? Hide your heads in shame, yc cravens, who came not to thc rescue of tho brave, true Guarinois! ■ In an apratment ofthe palace sat two maidens ; Xarifa aud Madisma, daughters of King Marlotes. Xarifti spoke first. , "Do you wish to see this captive, thc Christian knight V '■Ay, that I do, est ofthe maidens. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^— "Sister, what knight have wc who is his equal ?"

" Become a Moslem, and with joy I will receive thee." A derisive smile played for a moment on his handsome faeo, 1ml Guarinois answered not. '■Now, listen, Count Gnorinois; but become a Moslem, and thou shalt have either of mv fair daughters for thy wife. Thou speakest not! If thou Wishes! more, more will 1 irivetheo. Speak boldly then, whal is Giv f'iu-fh.T wish'.'" Kindly Uie King Marlotes spoke} r<;r Era loved his noble captive, and would fain win him for himself and daughter. Nut one moment did the count i,pause to think, but clear and promptly came thi;.- : answer. "God forbid, and Man his dear mother, that I should renounce the faith of Christ, mid adhere to Allah. I want no ".-¡fe. I have one in my sunny France; I do not need another one in Spain, No kindly though you have .spoken, and generously offered me thy child, I cannot abjure my faith OT break my marriage vow,'' lung Marlutes*;- eyes hashed, and he clenched his hands ¡n i\igo. "Think once again. Count Guarinnis. Tffc offer ofa king's daughter shoold not be lightly refased. Accept, and life, liberty, and power are thine, henceforth. .Kefuse. and the lowest dungeon I possess, is thy life-long abode!'' No muscle of thc count's face moved, his eve quailed not .before the flewe rage of liie king. No v.ilhin liiy balk thought of yielding had place a moment (hough "-Vobh his heart sank. Finn nml calm Be stood in Ids high courage, and his voice faltered not though he knew that his answer would shut him onl fiorever*frora the pleasant light of day. Again he repented, and his voice was clear and high : , "I cannot change my faith, or break my vow for love or life." Marlotes sprang from his scat in fierce rage, and hoarselj he gave the order: "Hind him hand and foot. Bear him to the dungeon, keep him beneath tiie vault, let him lie and perish!" They chained him with heavy bolts of iron and rattling chains, and led him out. One last, lingering, wislfnl look he cast HpOp the bright heavens, and spreading vales, lit up by the glad warm sun, then a step forward, and thc heavy, durk door that was to shot bim in from all the bright life closed. On through the stillness and gloom they led bim ; down steps and along passages, till they reached the lowest dungeon in the castle. Thc only light that entered that dismal cell crept ¡n through ¡wo chinks in the thick walls, high aboi e hlfl head, so that he might never hope to catch the smallest glimpse of beautiful nature. The ray of light was gray and cold, and the irallswcre rough and chill, iu the dismal place henceforth tobe the life long abode ofthe young, brave knight Guarinois. When he had entered (lie dungeon, he turned and saw -Marlotes standing nf (he eotra006< '■This, sir knight is to be your resting place. Once more,. I otter yon your freedom, if yon will but embrace thc faith of Allah," Guarinois turned away, saying : " Close the door. Ay, bolt and bar it strong,and so destroy all hope." "By the beard of Allah," exclaimed ihe king, "'but thou art a stubborn knight." The door closed, and the echoing tread of the soldiers was heard no more. even years have passed in gbom and WOO. ftUd only three times in each long weary year bad Count Henri Guarinois breathed the free air. Three festival days in every year had he been led forth chained and guarded, tobe the sport and mockery of the assembled throngs. The seven years had slowly dragged on in hopeless misery, wearily, with no hope of change save by death. An unusual bustle and clamor in the world without had aroused Guarinois front his apathy and despair, and when his jailer brought his food, be asked hirn the cause. " Is it," ho asked, "anolher feast day when I shall be brought forth from hence to become (he mark of scornful words and hate? or does some brave young night wed the daughter of Marlotes, whom 1 scorned?"

''Ha. ha, so thou art caught by tin- reports concerning this brave infidel captive knight!-"' Three days had Henri Guarinois been imprisoned, though his piuco of confinement was light and large, aud he liad been treated with ail kindness by tho King Marlotes. He was aroused from a revery iuto which he had fallen by the opening of bin prison door and the entrance of the jailor, accomnani- The jailer replied :— ■ " These trumpet sounds do not announce feast or bridal Joy ** rather hunger and sorrow. It is John tiie Baptist's day, when all join in jousts and tilts. The king Marlotc?.in his joy bas placed a target as a spearanan's mark, but so high iu air that all have failed to reach it to pierce the ring, or tli row it down. Marlotes in his fierce rage has proclaimed by heralds through tho town tliat no man, woman. or child shail taste food till the prize he ¡rained." Springing to his icet, the pale Guarinois spake out : '• Xow help rae God were I but armed and moim- ted oa my own grfty SVebüsond, ali would enjoy tlieir food full soon, for whatever the height, Í weuld reach the prize," The jailer marvelled. Would this pale knight, who in chains liad languished seven weary year?, attempt what gallant practised spearmen had failed in?" "List to mc, sir jaiier. Give mc my trusty steed, if he is not long since dead, all caparisoned as of old ; give me the trusty lance I 'brought with me from home, and my good armor, and 1 will win the prize or die." The jailer spake with wonder in his voice : "Seven years of gloom sod imprisonment have not robbed thee of thy brave spirit. 1 will repair to the king Marlotes, ami report to him thy words.-"-' What hope has sprung up in thy heart of steel, brave (iuarinois? The jailer sought and olifüiiu-il admittance to thc king. The jailer found him seated in his listed ring, with a black cloud on his brow. He whispered to him the captive's boast. Marlotes laughed in scorn, then ¡urning to his knights he said : "Listen, and you .shall hear brave tilings. My prisoner Guarinois has Ihis day made the boast that wero he but mounted oil his old gray steed, with lance iu rer-t, he would win the prize ye till have failed to gain, or yield his life blood at my feet." All assembled laughed, though the king said to them: F O 11 W H A T ?

When Guarinois appeared, the king and his knights langbed more loudly, Ilis horse, old. gray Trebizond, neighed and plunged so furiously, fha"t lie freed himself from the groom and rushed madly to his master, who stroked bis no longer gjossy neck, and whispered to him, and he was quiet by bis side.

Mo:n.-*.ir:\T to thi-: BSoBDEBBD BOTLB¿B.—Th? citizens ui' Louisville have erect ed a monument to
W. 11. <;. Butler, the teacher shot by Matt, Ward.
It is an elegant piece of workmanship, built of
Italian marble, about ten feet in height. The inscriptions on its sides arc as follows:
■' William II. O. Buttler, born in Jefferson
tajim-iy, tndiana, Octobers, 1825,
died at Louisville, K*y., Nov.
, * 2d,l'855." '■-"'
On tlte reverse:
11 A man without fear and without reproach ;
of gentle and retiring disposition; of
clear iBBfla .vigorous mind ; an ac- "
complEshed ¿scholar; a devoted nndsSieeSSrul teacher ; a mees and
¡nimble Christian."
yin jJhdNqEÜjjpijte :
"He fell by tin: hand of violence, in the presence
of his loving pupils—a'martyr to his iidel-
ity in the discharge of his duty,"
Ou thc South side :
" Tii is monument is erected by his pupils aud a
bereaved community, to show their *p-
preeiatiou of his worth, and to
perpetuate their horror ."'
at his murder."
This is not more a niGirjiment to the murdered
man than to the murderer; for, on the stone, to
the gaze ofall eyes, is his crime engraved in words
tbat no atonement ean wash away, liow'much hotter for the criminal's own memory if he had suffer-
■;.t some legal penalty lor the bloody deed.—[Sandusky Register.
