splciulicj |>i('ture by W. A. Allston is now

“S|.a!iitPo was ein] lojBd by Schciloni to
iniiriler Ellena, the lieroiiiu of the .story.—
The time fixed for this deed is in the niglit,
wiiiie tlie victim is aslec|); but on their way
to her cliatnlier the assa.ssin’s hoart fails
him i he refuses to do the dml: ut tliat
iiioinciit of coin|uiiiction his loriner crimes

IihikI Nctm.i to hi cicon him in the air.
‘(iive me that da^ycr,’ said Schedoni.—
S|mlatro now grasjied the arm of the Con-
li.’.ssor, will), lookiiio at him for an e.v|>lana-
tiun of thi.-? exiraordinary action, was still
moie uurjii'iscd to obsi:rve tho paleness and
horror of his cnuiitcnance. His staring
eyes seemed lo luliow some object along tlie
|i!i.ssiioo. Schedoni looked forward to dis-
ciiver what occasioned this dismay, but could
(MTceive nothing. “ What Is it you li-ar !”
said he, :it length. Spalatro’s eyes were
still moving in horror, “ JJo you see nofh-
itio?” said he, pomtino—“Dotard! what
did you sec !” ini|iiircd the Confe.ssor. “ It
came heforo my eyes in a moment, a;id shew
ed itself distinctly and even spread—and
then it beckoned—yes, it hcckoned me,
with that blmnl-staineil (int;er !” “'I his is
very frenzy,” said Schwloni. “Arouse
yonrself, and bo a inan !” “ Frenzy t would
it w ere, seionior. I saw that dreadful hand
— I see it now—it is there again!—there !”
'J'his scene Air. Allston has embodied on
his canvass with an ellijct, that cannot be
realised from mere description. His picture
tiiust be seen, to feel its power, or to appre
ciate the freniits of the Arti.st. On looking
at it, yoti may almost imagine, that it is
life itself; you can see the tremors of the
conscience-stricken assassin;—his eyes al
most starting from their sockets;—the re
laxation ol his muscular strength ;—the pros
tration of his intellectual power—you see
him timid, unmanned and horritied; and
this too, in immediate contrast with the cold,
cult (dating and unblemishing hardihood of
the nmro consnmniate villain, who is urg
ing him on to the deed of blood. The scene
is strikingly terrible uiul sublime. It well
deservi's an hour’s study iind admiration from
every fi ieiid to the ,\rts.
'I'iie “ vision of the bloody hand” is alone
f-niiugli to establish .Mr. .■Vllston’s claim to
tlie tirst place in his .\rt. Mr. Allston is
an honor to his country. Let that country,
which he loves so well, properly cherish
him. If there uny one thing that makes

The kind of va.ssalage known'by the namn
of' Seiheigcnsehaft, or body-ow-ncrship,
which still prevails in several of fhe (ler-
man states, consists in compulsory services
and dues, yielded by the peasant to his land
lord who.se security is the body of the pea
sant; and this security dies not with the man,
but is entailed upon his children. N.U’oi,-
r.o\ abolished the SeihcigcnHehaft in Han
over, where, however, it has since been re
vived. Much of this oppreivsion, which is
deemed of remote origin, is in fact of recent
growth, to the intlnitu scundul of modern
citilited Europe.

EON, who has lieen for two or three years
a wanderer iu North-America, and who du
ring the past summer found his way to
Texas; while on his way from Urazoria to
.Me.vico, put a period tu his exiistence at
Hexan, some time in Octoljcr last. Tho
account states, that just before the fatal nio-
irnent, and^while he stood;On the 4j3flK*f
the San .\ntonio prerri^^ditating the last '
desperate act of his sad life, ho called to
him a .shepherd boy who happened to be
near, and giving him his splendid watdi,
his rings and trinkets, (keep-sakes and r«’-
lics of happier days !) hade him carry them
to the Alcade, in order, it is supposed, to
sati.sfy tho demands against him. 'I’his last
duty [Terfiirined—his accounts with this
world thus closed—he applied the filial pi.s-
to!s—one to eat-h car—as he stood with his
back lo the stream, ititcnding, probably,
that his body should fall in, and thus further
trouble about him he saved.
