1 A sudden loud noise in tho direction
of tto s-eaker caused to turn round.
A cry of surprise escaped mo ! The
Cavaliers appeared ' to be completely
Jt-uried under rt' newspaper ; the large
sheets of t he FerSeveranzaM al most
covered fcis face,. 3vom .which - a few
drop. of blood were slowly trickling
dfcwn. -A person, whom 1 had scarcely
nbticed before the reader of a journal
in the farther corner stood near, the
table at which vat lhe,Caval;ere, with
sparkling eyes "and trembling lips, he
evidently having, in -an ebidlition of
anger, flung. the paper at the other's
heed. It V! a? prcbaljly the brass-screw
of the paper-file which had scratched
the Cavaliere's face. - -
; " Miserable coward ?' exclaimed the
unknown individual, V do you dare to
call your benefactor,'" who has saved
you from poverty and wretchedness, a
fool and a knave ; ,
The Cavaliere had jumped up and
advanced upon the stranger. Sud
denly he turned ashy-pale,., stepped
back, a pace or two and stammered :
"Camillo is that you? Where do
you e6me from?1'
"Yes, it is: I !n replied the former
major of the Bersaslieri. ".You shall
pay for those insulting words with your
blood!" . .
Salviati had quickly composed him
self resumed his seat, aiid said with a
bitter irony iu his voice:
"I shall request the proprietor of
the Cafe to eject you from the prom
ises, my man. You seem to have
supped rather generously !"
lou shall give mo satisfaction,
villain!" cried the Major's voice, his
whole frame trembling with rage.
Satisfaction to you ?" retorted re
torted Salviati with a diabolical smile.
" I have ncne to give to an officer ex
pelled from his regiment 1"
I do not know whether my nerves
were more than ordinarily excited that
rn'glrtr but distinctly remember, that
aTter Salviati bad spoken, my vision
grew dim and indistinct. I entirely
forgot where I was; forgot also that
the inhabitanis of the South rarely
rnako ue of the weapons which mother
Nature Las given to man. I fairlv
shook with rage, daited forward and
before ho knew how it happened, I had
boxed Cifvalicro Carlo Salviaii's ears
in tho most approved German style.
acainst tt? Uermtins iv.xa fciraUy on the
increase, and the . excited popular
opinion was but too prone to recognize
an Aurian emissary in disguise in
every German traveller.
, I warded it off .nevertheless by
cal mly 'replying : -
" You have seen me for a number of
months at the houae of Colonel Ginozzi
yet you pretend ujt ta ki owmo?
That does yoiu penetration little
credit. I -knew at once whom I had
celf. I am not sorry lor "having tbjno
what I did, and if 1 could foresee all
the consequences cl ixf tction, I should
do this very day; what I did then, if I
knew what I only fondly believed at
uiiM unro ia& a uia use my own i
a treasure given by God himself.
Neither my father nor tho Minister of
War, would ever have given thebfeon
eent to my marriaso with the daughter
of a man, of whom it was said,' that in
1848 ho had preferred tho Austrian
before me! Mrchea Pakj.vlcjni.4 fcrvice to that of hi own country, lie
however, whose gpest I am at Pegu,
as I was thatof Colonel Ginozzi befor
at'Turin, can give you all the infor
mation you desire." .;'.'--"
The universally, respected name of
the Marchese sealed Salviatf s lips, and
before he left the cafe, he had still to
see Prince Cibo advancing towards mo
and hear him say.
If it so happen, my dear sir, that you
have but few acquaintances at Genoa
and should be in want of seconds in
the probable' 'recontre,' you may count
npon the services of myself ,and my

. The. moments follovring my instnn
tareous ar.aault. it is difficult to des
cribe. Salviaii's friend had thrust
himself upon me I had violently
jushel him hnck that I rcmerrher dis
tinctly : and Heaven onlv knows what
have happened, had not a pair
i.. strong arms seized me and pressed
o down on the sofa. .
The officers at the adjoining table
5 id rushed in between us, and forci
ii'y sejjarated me from the Cavaliere.
" Sir VI "said one of them, " do you
jrahzo-where you ore? ; This is no
tr.vern for sailors and boatmen !"
These words brought me to myself,
a-'d above all else I desired to dispel
l i e tlisagreeahle imptxjssion, which my
ice-.ipitate action had produced upon
ii oso gentlemen ; for I clearly saw,
rrat they were all inclined to take the
Cavaliere's part,
"Gentlemen,,, I said, "have ycu
heard the words, which this person ad
dressed to the g'entleman yonder ? And
So you know who the gentleman is?
It is Major Camillo Ginozzi, , whom
King Carlo Alberto decorated on the
batlle-field of Novara wiih his own
hands ; who, a few hours later was
seriously wounded and taken prisoner ;
sent

t o veteran old soldier himself shak-
j him" by the hand and congratu
hiting him upon his bravery. Did
y cu hear "what that person hinted
Koout an officer expelled from service,'
and do" you happen to know," . '
The officers did not allow me to go
rn they eagerly. surrcUndfcd the Major
ai: d held out their, hands to him.
- This scene had lasted but a few min
ntes. The Cavaliere had not . yet re
r oveied from his' surprise; -i vither
1 ad his friend, . who remiiaed mo
ronless Tin i the sofa, upon ;. which I
- 2ad flung - h" m. t - :
y At last one of the officers approached
Salviati and "said: '
. " There seems to be some misunder
standing ' here., -I am Prince ' Cibo,
brother of the Cardinal-Archbishop of
Pisa-and a Captain in the regiment of
Piacenza' hussars." I pledge you, my
word of honor, that . any gentleman
would ;feel justly ,x proud of crossing
swords with Baron Ca'milld Ginozzi."
; :. With remaikable" promptitude Sal
viati .had meanwhile : ' recovered . his
pmposnre. He. rose from his chair,
, iped off the few drops of blood on his
orehead, and said in a calm tone of
voice: : - f ?:.'-... .:.y v-,

This malicious thrust was adroitly
worded and "well calculated to lose me
he sympathy of 4 those present. - A
short time only had elapsed since the
last Milan insuriection ; the fcclins
It is to this day utterly inexplicable
to me now me uavauere dared a
second time as far as I' knew and
dius publicly and rudel.v, to slander
the old Colonel ; for he ivas known to
be a man of much circumspection and
could not but expect that his cynical
Ingiatitude would inevitably estrange
las own friends from hi rn a prospect
which could in no wise benefit his pur
poses. The circumspection alluded to,
ie showed very plainly shortly after
having left the cafe ; for he then be
gan "to realize the fact, that nothing
save the utmost, bravery and the most
convincing proofs of personal courage
could undo the unpleasant impression
left upon the minds of Prince Cibo and
his comrades.
About a quarter of an hour after his
departure from tho cafe, two entle
tnen entered the mosaic-saloon of the
restaurant ueua uoneoraia and ap
proaching our gnup for at the urgent
request of the officers, Camillo and I
had taken seats at their table de
livered a challenge to each of .us. The
Cavaliere demanded that we should
meet him the very next morning, since
important business made it rieccsaary
for him to return to Turin immedi
ately.' The Major and I retired, and
Joft it for the officers to arrange the
details of the duel with tho Cavaliere's
seconds. :; ,v.i.;. , . . .
Theso were socn'ccncluded and we
were promptly Informed that it had
been agreed upon that the Cavaliere
should first exchange shots with the
Major, and if the result be such as to
enable him to continue the combat, he
was to cross swords with me. . We as

will yet sco that I did right and for

I tiled to tern the conversation upon
Salviati. He interrupted me with a
gentle" smile. '
" We must not speak ill of the man,
with whom we are to fight the very
next morning." t
. -The remembrance of that night
will never leave me. It was ono of
the most memorable in all my life. We
separated long after midnight and be
fore we retired, each of us wrote a lass
fare well to those dearest to us on earth.
CHAPTER XT.
When Trinco Cibo came for me be
fore sunrise in the morning, ho found
mo waiting for him, for I had slept but
little and very uneasily.
The Major had to be called several
times, and we had to wait a lonp whita
before he overtook us. I shook biro
by the hand as I would an old friend.
when he held out his own and wished
me a. pleasant morning. In the Via
nuovissima we found the Prince's"car
riage, the street, in which stood the
Hotel Feder, being too narrow for its
passage, as are nearly all the old
streets of the city. After passing the
gate, we took the road of Oneglia. At
a distance of about hall an hour's ride
from the city lay the villa of one of
our .seconds, Marchese Pal la Cassotti;
a grove of olivetrce in his grounds
had been selected as the place for our
recontre.
We had fcaicely been there five min
utes, when another carriage drove ud
end tho Cavaliere. accompanied by two
gcntlcrccn, alighted. The Marchess'
servant at once conducted them to the
grove, where we awaited 'them. r
The preparations for. the donhle
duel wcre quickly made. The Major
had already risen from, the trunk of a
tree, on which he had seated himself,
when Prince Cibo, in accordance with
his duties as a second, endeavored to
effeev u compromise ; ; an endeavor,
which was promptly frustrated by the
Cavaliere's rr.de reply, who insisted
upon "seeing blood." ;

Soon after, our truly ; swer in return and bowing coldly, he
amiable company left u, and Camillo . came back to where we stood
and I repaired to tho Hotel Feder.) Tho conditions of the duel were
where he had taken lodgings andT theso customary in Italv at a " riscon-

a room for the night.
"Are you tiiedV" the Major asked
me, while going up-stairs.
"Not iii the least." ;
"In that , case let us order s-.me
sherbet and tea to my room, and chat
away another hour or two, if you like."
" You could not propose anything
more agreeable, for it seem to me we
need some soothing tonic3, before mak
ing the necessary preparations for to
morrow." What preparations do you mean?
Prince Cibo is to famish the weapons."
"I know. . ... . but have you
no. . . -. , no letters to write ?"
"We have the whole night before
us," he said, " and now come with mol
A singular relationship has sprung up
between us. How strangely destiny
often brings us together ! An ' hour
ago we were utter strangers to ono
anotherand $0 morrow we may both
die in the same cause I The ways of
the Almighty are inscrutable."
We went into his room, ordered
lemonade and tea, - and conversed
eagerly over our cigars. -'
I shall never f 01 get that memorable
night I I became intimately acquainted
with a man, who, during the few hours
wo were together, endeared, himself
to me more than my oldest and truest
friend. Never have I found so much
frankness, probity and-energy united
in so poetical and tender a som ! ' lie
was the true type of Piedmontese no
bility; of that mixed race, which has.
borrowed its spirit from .Prance, -its
rough energy from the Swiss and the
vivifying breath of art and poetry
from its mother country Italy.
In eloquent words, words full of fire
and animation, he painted -to me his
domestic .happiness',"" "his plans for the
future; he rpoke of his child, of all
that filled his heart with joy and hope.
, Ilis eyes grew dim while he spoke of
hi3 father and their unhappy relations.
." My father" ho said, is a noble,
good, kind-hearted man. . The early
and my unhappiness. Accustomed to
loss of his patents is the cuuso of his
command from earliest infancy,
might say. ho could never tolerate any
other master in his house, save him
self. My mother's, gentleness- might
have succeeded in .bending, this, de
termined character by loving affection t
but she alas I died shortly alter 1 was
born. OhT "why did . I. enter tho
army ?" he added after a brief pause.
" In any other profession I might havo
received the - pate rnal chastisement,
without disgracing myself ; as it was,
I was obliged to, act as I have done."
He was silent again for somo mo
ments.
"You" will probably say," he re
sumed, " that I need nofhave brought
that con6ict and punishment uvea mi-
: - - t
tro seiio." 1 lie adversaries were
placed at a distance .of forty paces
from each other ; they were to advance
simultaneously and after making ten
paces, a sign was to be given to indi
cate that they might fire at will.
lie fore the Marchese Cassotti con-
dinted Camillo to his place, the lattet
beckoned me to his side and gave we
his hand.. ,
lLei me thank yuu once more for
the interest you havo taken in mo and
my family. I hope all may be well
yet j if not' may God llcss you aad all
those dear to me ?'
He averted his face, without wait
ing for my reply,-raided his head with
an expression of calm dgnity, such as
I have never seen since, and made tLe
Prince a sign that he was ready.
One of the secrmds of the Cavaliere,
apparently the oldest of us allrcast a
glance at the two combatants, called
out " attenti, signori !" and after hav
ing satisfied - himself ' by another
glance, that both were fully prepared
he clapped his hands three times and
slowly but firmly the adversaries ad
vanced upon each ether.
The drama, which' I am about re
lating, lasted but a few minutes, Iks
fore reaching Its final horrible catas
trophe. Although this short space
of timo seemed a century to us, it may
be readily conceived, that not one of
those, who had the ill fortune to wit
ness the scene, was capable of giving
a detailed account of the same.
I saw that both had overstepped the
ten-pace boundary-line; saw both of
them raiw'ng Uieu amis and gradually
approaching each other, each measur
ing the other with his looks; Salviati
with an expression both sinister and
gloomy i Camillo calmly and . loftily.
The next Uiir.g I saw, was a light cloud
of smoke from Salviatf pistol. I
shut my eyes, my heart ceased to beat.
I heard the report of tho pistol and
tremblingly opened my eyes again.
Heaven be praicd! Camillo stood
there erect, slightly wavering for an
Instant, but tho next.- advancing upon
the Cavaliere as calmly as beforo.
Tho 1 alters face, immediately after
firing, grew pale and nafunred an ex
pression of -undisguised astonishment;
it evidently wenied incredible to him,
to have miscd hi? opponent. lie grew
paler and paler; tho nearer Camllo ap-
Lproached Llm with levelled arm, in
.other words tho nearer a certain and
inevitable death closed upon him. the
mere every d;op of color left his face.
Eudder.lT, however, its expression
charged to one of such fiendish malice,
as I have, never seen before or since ;
he appeared liko a demon, whose con
torted features could scarcely suppress
a diabolical mile. .
