- THE CRUEL REYENGE.
' A. tegf nd of Lbe flansttd Cufle.
On a branch ai the Guadalquiyer.
which loses Itself among the heights of
me p terra ievaaa, may oe seen, wu
dayy the remaka of an old chateaii
whose bare and blackened walls frown
in grim majesty upon their silrer waters,
which now minor only desolation.
Thick rmoss has grown oyer, and ob
scures the once valued memorials of .au
almost regal pride and rnagnificence.
A hoary, matted mass of iTy, cflrers and
partially ''' supports the decayiftand
crumbling tower which stands on the
left side of the castle j its angle of incli
nation is so rreatlhatjthe totterine old
ruin seems momentarily on the point of
iamng, ana wiu mvanaDiy crusn in ns
descent the gay groupfof young orange
trees, whose glossy leaves and graceful
wavings convey to an irnaginatye mind
the idea that they rejoice in Itejhff the
only living things whch dare" to look
cheerful in a spot so melancholy and
desolate ; the prospect is even worse on
entering the house. The only furniture
of the large, dark, and dismal hall, which
ts ornamented with grotesque carvings
ot saints and angels, consists ol antique,
worm-eaten picture, half fallen from its
frame. It is a portrait ; and the brillian
cy, f a few tints, which have bid defi
ance to time, testifies that the forgotten
form of the original was once clothed in
gay and costly ature.
Lrumblme balustrades and crazv
staircases forbid the most inquisitive a
venturer, to pursue his investigations
much farther ; and the terror of the su
perstitious guides for there is no heart
that does not quail in the vicinity of that
tembleruin urges the traveller to leave
the bats and reptiles in undisturbed pos
session of their accustomed haunts.
For myself, 1 felt a strange and pecu
liar sentiment of enjoyment in fingering
among the scattered and decayed monu
ments ot ancient grandeur. These ap
pear in the magnificent proportions of the
buildings and surrounding grounds,
though the hand of taste can no longer
be discerned amid the desolate chambers
of the house, or the gnarled and matted
mi
masses, which P'TJiP'YiJ11 fornftr day a
ornamented the pleasure-grounds and
gardens ; their dark and heavy luxuri
ance now makes the ruin more sombre
and forbidding.
The opposite side of the river is equal
ly desolate, although tradition tells us,
that, in the palmy days of splendor,
when the old ' Castillo de las Torres'
was the wonder and admiration of the
country from Seville to Grenada, it was
rendered scarcely less attractive, by a
very lovely unostentatious villa, whose
former .site is still pointed out.
These situations are remarkable, as
having been, in by-gone 'times, the wit
nesses of a most terrible domestic trage
dy. The minutest pardcolar relating to
it are treasured with care by the neigh
boring peasantry, although they affect a
certain air of mystery with regard to
them, which caused me to inquire dili
gently before I arrived at the lonowing
particulars.
The Castle de las Tones, as I have
said, was once the pride and glory of
that portion of the country. Its master,
a noble marquis, in spite of hereditary
pride, was reverenced and almost idol
ized bv the ne&sAnta. whose deacndantji
described him as the noblest and most
exalted of men, perfect in the graces and
accomplishments ot a knight and gen
tleman, handsome, intelligent, brave and
generous to profusion. The lofty old

those days to jesound with music and
mirth.' . pay arid gUant cavahers con
tended, upon the now matted and weed-
grown lawn for the supreme beauty of
their uur qustresses, whose nashmg eyes
and merry peals of laughter enlivened
the haili now made slimy and loath
some by the reptiles , which creep over
them.
The last noble Marquis de las Tor
res, while lull m the statB of bachelor
ship, h&a so impaired his finances by
phrase hospitality arid generosity, that
he was fain to call to his -aid his nat
trjal aM acquired grace, 1n order -to

young, was still singularly beautiful and
ting; her manners having attain
ed a perfection of polish, which is rare
ly or never lound in early, youth. Her
stately steo and glorious black eves were
probably as attractive as her vast fortune.
Lto her admiring husband. Her temper.
however, was violent, overbearing and
vindictive in the extreme; so much so,
that she became the terror, as well as
the admiration of the country. Many
& harsh and cruel deed is recorded of
hier, though none so shocking and on-
natural as the one which toiiows.
IjVas goon whispered" that her hus
band, of .whom she was intensely jeal
ous, was happier any where than in his
Stately and sumptuous home. Any do
mestic contentions were however care
fully concealed, and the Marquis alwavs
appeared the most devoted of husbands.
Nearly opposite the castle, on the oth
er side of the river, arose the white walls
of a less cosdy-but very beautiful resi
dence, whose only occupants were an
old man with a maiden sister, and a
lovely grand-daughter. This girl, whom
they called Elena, attained her seven
teenth birth day on the eye of the festi
val of Santa Catarina, which was to be
celebrated with great magnificence at the
castle. She was very lovely, so much
so as to attract the attention of the Mar
quis friends as they occasionally caught
a glimse of her graceful form on the front
of the balconywhich overhung the riv
er. Many a'sportive jest, connected with
the fair neighbor who smiled so sweetly
whenever she saw the Marquis, had pas
sed the lips of the guests and wrankled
in the heart of the Marchioness. Ap
parently the Lord of las Torres either
despised or neglected these hints, for he
continued his frequent visits to the pret
ty rural villa, ana often spoke of its fair
and almost unprotected inmate, with the
admiration and affection of a fond pa
rent - -
On the eve of the festival of Santa
Catarina, the young Elena de Castres
sat alone on the moonlit balcony. The
song had faltered on her lips, and the
strings of her guitar snapped one by

mirrowing water, nor the serenity ol the
sky, nor the inow-capped chain of the
Siera Nevada losing itsell in the dis
tance and darkness, awake any pleas
ing sensations in her bosom. She was
thinking how very gay the castle would
be on the following day, and how grace
fully Don Louis Mendoza would dance
the fandango,, and how very cniel her
aunt was to consider her too young to
go, and she almost seventeen !
A manly footstep broke the stillness.
Elena sprung up, and flew to meet the
Marquis, with a degree of delight, which
his fair lady would have very little ap
proved. Oh, I am so thankful to you forjeom
ing,' said she. ' My aunt has said posi
tively I shall not go to the castle to-mor-

' And wherefore, raiscorazoncita. Is
she afraid of your meeting Senor Don

Elena blushed and answered, 'he
will be there, and my aunt forbids me
to go.'
1 And you cannot succeed in softening
the old lady's feelings towards your
handsome young cavalier V
1 Not at all sighed Elena, her heart
is like a flint she calls Don Louis a
dissipated boy, and me a silly child.'
' Hard, bard indeed,' laughed the vis
iter. But in truth,' said the young lady, I
believe a little intrigue is all she desires.
She cannot bear that I should marry
quiotfy,' without at least half dozen
lovers to break their hearts on the Occa
sion or get up some kind .of domestic
romance, for her amusement.'
The old lady thinks she jvilllive
over again her youth in youx conquests.

self have determined to take the matter
in your own hands, and elope in the con
fusion of to-morrow's festivities?'
1 But there is ho hope now, for she said
positively that I should not go.'
' Well, let me arrange this little aflair
for you. Suppose youseenito submit
quietly to your aunVs decree ; I will take
care to have her out of the way by send
ing for her to the castle for the ostensible
purpose Of assisting in the preparations.
At this juncture, although neither per
ceived it, a dark figure glided noiseless
ly up tlie river bank, and stood in a lis
tening attitude behind a group of oal-
lettos, which effectually screened it from
view. The demon jealousy had prompt
er La enora Isabel to dog her husband'
footsteps, to hear and iudee for herself.
'And then,' continued the Marquis,
- - ' aBU-
you can come unobserved to tire castle
in the evening. You had better come
masked, for to tell the truth, the Senora
is a little tinctured with jealousy, and
sne is so violent mat it would not fx; al
together prudent to meet her.'
' Yes, yes.'
.' But meet me at the fountain of the
Graces, near the western turret, and there
shall this fair hand be disposed of, at
least to our satistaction.'

knowlcdgments I must hasten home,
or my restless Senora may perchance
send hither in search of me. Adieu.
mi vida. Wear this jewel to distin
guish you to-morrow, in case there should
beany difficulty; and placing on her
hand a diamond ot rare magnificence
he took his leave.
The young girl gazed after him, till he
was out of sight ; and then with a heart
full of hope, and head crowded with
gay fancies, she entered the house.
With very different feelings did the
Marchesa wend her way homeward.
Her boatmen, who with their little barge
lay concealed in the shadow of the bank,
were heard afterwards to say that the
appearance of their mistress as she bared
her head to the moonbeams was that of
a beautiful demon. Her eyes glistened
like those of a serpent, and her delicate
ly chiselled features assumed the livid
rigidity, of jl. corpso. Long UW
doubts had hitherto festered her mind
with jealousy, and theceming confir
mation of her suspicions now goaded
her to madness.
Ere she reached the opposite bank of
the sparkling river, her dark resolution
had been formed. Wrapping the black
mantilla around her head, she hastened
to her chamber, and there, having secu
red herself from the intrusion of any
living or moving object, save the flicker
ing moonbeams which played upon the
floor, and she brooded over, and arrang
ed her scheme of vengeance, whose very
horror nerved her resolution. ' Aye, aye.
that fair hand shall indeed be disposed
of, to the satisfaction of one whose in
terference they little dread.'
The possibility of her mistake never
for a moment entered her imagination.
The increasing boldness of the Marquis
had long excited her indignation and
she had ever been on the watch to dis
cover its cause never for an instant sus
pecting that her own violent passions
had alienated the affections of her hus
band whom she idolized.
It is exceedingly probable that the la
dy might have had other causes for
jealousy, than that here narrated ; but
this is the only one whose remembrance
has survived.
The following morning rose bright
and clear upon the gilded turrets and
crystal fountains which sparkled in the
sunbeams as they fell upon the magnifi
cent Castelfo. The festival of 8anta
Catarina was to be celebrated with unu
sual splendor, less in honor of the Saint J
herself, . than of the Knights ol Saint
Quharino, who wre sojourning - at tha
Castle..
Preparations for the religious andmik
itarv festival were made with alllfh

nation, where personal prowifsswss them It enclosed in simall, box cf,

pomp.
Thus the day wore, on until the hour
of liesta arrived ; when, every one wear
ried with the heat and fatigue of the
morning, sought rest, and repose. Si
lence prevailed throughout the mansion;
the Marchioness again wrapped the man
tilla arotmcl hef stately person, and des
cended td the hoat' The drowsey boat
men, who were following ' the example
of their masters in yielding to fte btense
heat, were much to their aruioyance ri

the table. A wreath of orange flowers '
for the hair, and a gold rosary with its '
sparkling cross were placed on a small ,,
table near the bed, and even the delicate- .
ly embroiderejj slippers were ready for i
use. . The lair mistress of the Thambrr ',
breathed softly in her quiet and child-
uite sleep. The lady paused ; and bend
ingover her, contemplated -for awhile i '
the rare and airrwrt infantile loveliness
of the sleeper strangely contrasted with-1
the turbulent feehngs end violent pas 1
sions which marred her migDWunl :
besuty. Apparently rplessing'- fancies f , ,
occupied the mind of the unconsciotw ;
girl, for a smile at that moment haM , .
parted the rose colored hps, a 'smile sot ' ,
sweet that it might have softened me11
heart of her vindictive enemy, had not
ai mai moment a sparK of light nom a ,y
diamond of singular beauty gleamed npU
on her sight. She rerogmzed her hu iJJ
bands ring on the delicately beauu'ful J
hand which hung so carelessly inJts,!
unconscious grace. This steeled her
heart, and sealed the fate of her, vfctim.
With an unfeeling hand she dropped a
portion of the corrtents of a small vial
on the half open lips. This vial con
tained poison collected from the tangs of
the Cobra de Capello. A few moment
only sufficed for it to take effect The
rich blood quickly retreated from the
cheeks, giving place to large black
spots the white bosom heaved violent- -ly
for a short time, then became perfect
ly still and the form of the loveliest
maiden of Andalusia rapidly changed
to that of a livid and blackened corpse.
But the work was not even then com- ;

cruel and vindictire woman She drew"
from its silver sheath a sharp suTettr, '
and without quailing, without' even '
shuddering, she severed tlie hand from
the delicately rounded arm of the Uiv '
fortunate girl. She then re-arranged .
the drapery in the most life-like manner,
possible, drew close the curtains, .and ,
withdrew from that dark and deathly
chamber, with no other emotions than 1
