The following sketeli U taken from
Russian tale, of great power and interest,
published ia tbe April number of Tuitt
Mafratin. The writer, a' Utyi Otgkget a
droekha to carrj her to the rebidenefr-of the
parents of some of her pupils. The drifef
a sinister looking rascal, carries her to a
lonely place and attempts to rob ber.
"At length, projecting my head out of
tne window, l saw in tbe daftance what ap
peared to be the white walls of a park or
shrubbery. 1 beheld trees rising here and
tnere, out no sin ot a house.' mis, per
i .u. ..mi.. : i i . r 5 -i . n
uua, iq iijc vuiti, sum i iu uiyacii, ouu ui
my fears will then be at an end. The dri
ver now slackened his pace, and presently
descended arid walked at the horse's head.
Evry ihing;a'rou8ed my suspicions, though
I kpew not-why ' Prtsenllthe droshka
stopped, and I saw a gate opening into the
walled enclosure. Coming up to the door,
he said, uYou must' alight here. 'Here F
I exclaimed, '-in this lonely plaee I" "Du
ns I command you," he said.?'! shall do
nothing of the kind,' (I Replied. 'Tou
arreed to take me to the villa K , and
I shall not alight until you have done so."
"This folly ia absurd," he arilwered ; listen
to what I say. We are now many miles
frooj St. Petersburg, distant from any habi
tation, and if you shriek or call out no one
will hear your voice, i here is not a living
soul within fire miles of us. This ia the
door of the cemetery, and unless you alight
instantly and deliver np your purse to me,
I will aik you fcfjaAb heart and Vhow you
into one of the rraves." 1 be cold-blooded
deveniMDeQn h which this was uttered
curdled my whole frame. For a moment
or two, I was struck dumb. Not a? hope
of escape' presented itself. I was there
alone, at the ole'rey'of a murderer, and
there remained nothing for me but to sub
mit. I cannot, accurately dolail nil tho
thoughts which thronged upon joy brain at
that moment. Pear was uppermost, but
the figures of those 1 loved stood prominent
ly forward : not, however, far ofZ, but crowd
ing around me, and passing swiftly away.
The greatest agitation now took possession
qf tne. 1 prayed and besought him to have
mercy on me, and offered bim half ray
worldly wraith if he would spare my life
and take me back. But he would listen to
no terms. BeW reproaches rushed over my
mind, and mingled bitterly with, my fears.
Why was I so blind, so foolish, to a'ccoov
pany the man ,at all I Why did I sufler
my want of courage to prevent my asking
the advice of some inhabitant of toe town,
instead of -trusting myself blindly this
suspicious-looking man f Becoming impa
tient of my long silence, which w,tnTacL
the silence of -despair,, he roaghlyVamied
me by the arm, and dragged mej ftoat te
carriage, i had no power to resist-.. I was
utterly destitute of hope. There was not
sound near. , AH .m the great solitude
arouiid me wu ecboless and void. . I ut
tered a' long piercing shf iek as be flung me
on the cold grorJnd, ' and bade mo deliver
my purse. A vain desire to makef myself
heard overcame mo. I repeated my ahrieks,
which ho now tried to stifle, by placing bis
hand ovet my mouth. 1 rose to my loet and
fled from,, him. The door of the cemetery
was open, and I rushed in. pursrjed-xloeely
by my eoeroy. 1 be moon oad lor soma
uroe been disappearins; behind ahtavy heap
of what seemed snow clouds, and now ahe
utfarl v deawrted ma Ml a most unforttirutt
moment, for I stumbleJ every inslaof against
a grave-atone or mound I traversed with
the swiftness of lightning those habitations
of the dead, not heeding in my terro the
title respect 1 showed them, out soon his
heavy band seized me again by the shoul
der, and dragged me back. My despair
ent me strength. ve croserj and strug
gled. I forgot his supenor power, and de
termiced to resist death lo the last Upon
hie breast he wore the medal with his num
ber engraved upon it Without any object
ia view but that of avenging myself at the
moment, I seized firmly hold of it, and in
b struggle I tore it oflC Thia circum
stance be, did not at the time notice, but, in
spite ofYny resistance he mattered between
his teeth that ho would (oon end it ; and,
as t sunk-almost exhauster' ori tLr ground
