"As for him I give him up to j-our clos est scrutiny; Analyze his features; feel what you call his osseous protuberan ces, and I am quite sure ypu will think with me that a loftier soul was never en shrined in -a more beautiful body." "Perhaps so." - j This conversation took place at a mag nificent ball given at Vienna- by Prince Metternich. There, were assembled all the personages of the Austrian ' Court most- aistinsruisnea lor ranK ana iortune: ailtne ambassadors of the European Powers all the high tofneers of the crown, covered with rich embroideries and orders; a crowds of charming women, young, ele gant and-, jgraceful, sparkling with dia monds, and dressed with the greatest splendor.. Amidst all these noble persons, the Princess de G- -through whom Met ternich hoped to gain Alexander's partic ular friendship and good will, was very conspicuous; but young Countlde Pehf , whose brilliant exterior, high rank, and amiable qualities, had in so short a time made him a universal favourite with the fashionable society of Vienna, attracted even more attention and remark than the princess. The Count had left his fine Bohemian estate, arid appeared for the first time at Fra'ricisH court, to Is whom he- came to render homage as his; sovereign. Metternich had already marked . him as his own. i . . The first of the speakers was a man of about forty, wrhose person, though effemi nate, was very prepossessing.! -He had an expanded forehead, a well shaped iiuse, large blue eves, and an agreeable mouth, around which an enchanting smile always played at command. His manner was winning, and put you at your ease in a minute. Ferlectly sell-possessea on an occasions he knew how to mingle in the dissipations and follies of the great, but always with the determination 6f profit ing by thj?m. The second, j although more than fifty years of age, had sail the vigor and boldness of youth, i His xtore head, already bald, was high j and open; his manly features announced habiCs of deep thought and decision. This was the Celebrated t)r. Gall, the illustrious physi- ogist; the former was Prince Metternich, Prime Minister to the Emperor of Aus- tria.- - 1 - ! : According to" his I usual custom, the Prince had retired in the middle of the fete, into the solitude of his closet, in order to dispatch some business. Gall remain ing alone, and struck with the 'warm par tiality displayed not only by Metternich, but the whole court for the young Count, was determined to,, watch him closely, during the rest of the evening, j As Count de Pehf was finishing a minuet " which he had danced with the beautiful Princess de Schw ,and du ring which every one nad crowded a- round to admire his easy, graceful, and elegant mariners, the Prince, who had. returned to the saloon, and stood behind Dr. Gall, tapped him lightly on the shoulder f 4 "Well." said he, "have vou scrutinized him narrowly; are you not nowconvinced hat the Count is a paragon of perfection? Gall d re w. the Prince aside, without reply and When they were out of the circle: j "Your paragon, Prince," exclamed he, is a monster!" "By St. Mary! Doctor," rejoined the Prince with a smile, "you cannot be seri- ous, or your system must be false." "You are incredulous; but wait: time will show which of us is riffht.V- Some years after this a horribleand un paralleled crime spread dismay through out Germany. The criminal was sentenc ed to be degraded from all his titles and dignities, and afterwards to be beheaded; the sentence! was put into execution, tt was the: brilliant Count de Pehf ! Two months after the ball! given by Prince Mettprhich, and in which he had figured so conspicuously, the young noble man had married the. heiress, of one ofthe richest and most illustrious families of Hungary. Young and charming, she had but just made her appearance at Court, whenj the Emperor disposed ofher hand, with Her free consent it is trae7ior she had not been able to behold the Count without feeling" for him the preference, which all other women gave him. Im mediately after his marriage, the Count retired to a distant estate, wishing, as he said, toenjoyV without constraint, his new ly found happiness. The first three years were happy jonesj the birth' of two child ren still increased their felicity. The Count lived in the (closest seclusion visi- ung neitnier relations nor friends nor per mitting any one to enter the , castle- H i fiie, without having any opea grourrd of cpapiamt lound him cold, reserved, and severe; a gloomy frown frequently settled upon his: features. Although he never spoke 4 harsh word to, or struck: one of his vassals, thev alwavs retrired frrn nr trpm. 1 Died at hl annornnnn UA wiui uai ana maetatigable arpor. - O - . - 1' v Tbf 7uj 3 lavuijjiie ooject oi Dursmt.

When the struggle was pro tracted &ridthe death rattle loud and pro longed, a ; singular! smile animated his featuret, and he was cheerful for the re jmaindei of the day". If the hun had af forded lim no , gratification of this kind, he mad his dogsj fight, and allowed no interfereice till one was disabled. If they triei to run away, he pitilessly killed them wili his own hand Thebe eccen tricities however, did hot seem pore strange than those of many other Hunga jrian nobles who resided on their estates, jand kejt aloof from the Court, The Count noreover was very liberal and V1 L even profuse, to all who approached him. Dunn? the last two or. three months, e had attached a surgeon to his estab lishment- because he was determined for the futurb no stranger should come near the castle. The surgeon was largely paid and had no other duty than to at tend to the health of the inhabitants of the manor, but he had been enjoined by the Count to have as little intercourse as possible with any other persons,; and par ticularly to observe secresy as to all cir cumstances, however unimportant, that might take place on the estate, j One afternoon the Count returned to ihe. castle after an unsuccessful hunt; his looks were more than usually gloomy. Without changing his dress ot taking re freshment, as was I his daily custom, he hastened up to his wife's apartment. Her little children, her only pleasure and con solation, were around her; she immediate ly rose and rushed to embrace him. The vouinjwaerua Uie children to leave the room. 't i ' ,r ' : ! ! :' - When he was alone with his: young wife, he told her to be seated, and placed himself before her in such a mahner as to be able; tosee her slightest change of countenance, ne men qrew a lQng aag ger from his beh the blade 6f which was triangular and skilfully sharpened. He appeared to amuse himself by feeling its point how on the end of his finger, and then on thejpalm of his hand. The Coun tess, struck by this new and unexpected scene, cast her eyes down, and await ed the termination with anxiety. ! inexpressible Madame, you must die' What mean vou!" cried the Countess, terrified at his'' words, arid the ! hollow tone with which they .were pronounced. "I repeat it Madame, you must die, and that, without noise; without complaint." Then seizing1 her by the arm, tie stab bed her in the side; she fell fainting with- out a i groan. nen sne came j to ner senses, she was upon the bed, anda dres sing had been put upon the wound. v " The Count was alone with her in the room, his eyes steadfastly fixed upon her, his lips parted with a-slight smile. He ap peared happy in observing the different impressions wrought by fear pr pain up on his victim's countenance. "I have changed my mind, Madame," said he, vhen he saw she had entirely re covered from- her irisehiibilityi "ypu shall Ijvej but your life will depend altogether upon your discretion. At the slightest whisper of what has or ; may. hereafter pass betwixt us, I shall know how tP in sure your silence forever." .' The Count continued his usual life Every day after returning from the chase he went up to his wife's apartment; and curiously examined but without speaking, the wound he had made. ! One evening, when it was nearly closed, after carrying the point of his dagger from one part to the other of tjie Countess' body, doubtless to increase her agonizing suspense, he inflicted a new stab, skillfully directed, ai the same time commanding her,; on pain of instant death, to utter no cry. The wound made, he appeared for some mo ments to revel with delight at the sight of the spouting blood. . He then coolly ap plied the bandage as before. j This second wound healed, he had eve ry successive fortnight made a fresh one, and always with the same calm and inex pressible cruelty. No one in the j castle suspected the true cause of the alarmirig and progressive state of weakness shewn bv the Countess who was almost "always confined to her bed.! - - Meantime, nothing could asjuage Pehf- . -'s j saaoiiinarv monomania, f The Countess's beautiful body was no longer but one horrible ulcer, furrowed as it was by her husband's dagger, i ,; Although the wounds were not deep; (the monster with a refinement of diabolical cruelty, taking especial care they should not be mortal) yet they were so numerous that f her threw the noor-victim into a violent fever, and her life - was in imminent dan ger. The Count after much Indecision, determined to dill in the surgeon, after a- new threatening his! wife with1 the whole! weignt or his vengeance, if she betrayed uMjtuiciuai scciei, anu stncuy j enjoining the surgeon not to endeavor to" find out the cause of his patient's illness. . He like every body else in the casile, imagi ued the Countess to be in a consumption irom me austere secluded, and mysteri ous life she Jed. Well skilled in his nro- fession, he soon traced her situation to a xwxolac& and intellect, a great admirer of her .virtues and resignation, he succeed ed in wringing the secret from her. Without leaving the castle, he informed the authorities of what, had taken place. One afternoon, as he? returned from the chase, the Count found the castle yard rilled with cavalry. Arrested and taken to Bude, he was tried, condemned and be headed. - -j THE CORRUPT JUDGED f ' By the side of the road between Fer- mony and ; the beautiful scenery of Lis more, is still to be seen, battering against the all destructive tooth of Time, the ru ins fan antiquated house one the dwel ling of the corrupt Judge P. ' j Its moss covered walls and grass grown chambers, are evident! symptoms of its be ing for many years untenanted ; vet there is an uttractionr in the lone, loveliness of its picturesque situation, which would well suit the gloomy mind of one disgusted witlx.the selfish cares pi the world. At the time to which this story refers. there lived a gentleman, whorii II shall call Nagle, in rather reduced circumstances, and who was, engaged in a law suit for the recovery of some jproperty--the final determination of whieh, if given against hini, would considerably involve his al ready limited means. , j -. . The trial was expected to take place in a few days, before the notorious! Judge P.: and Mr. Nagle's opponent hadjgiven the Judge a present of fifty bullocks, to se cure his good" will, which, it was thought would weigh heavy in his charge to the Nagle was very much afraidJthat a3 he could do nothing equal to his opponent hlS Case Was hopkl1 thertior Uarl an effect on his mind and spirits; Which did not long escape the shrewd of Paddy Mal owny, his groom, his j butler, steward, in one word his right hand man, 'Paddie Was the handiest bye in the world,. had the neatest cabin, the best til led garden, the most thriving pigr and on a Sunday, mounted on his master's old white mare that was blind, but as Pad dy expressed it "barrin she swas lame on three legs, and could' nt stand on' the fourth would do very well for 4 racer'?; why no one was equal to Paddy, at least so the gals thought and no ope can de ny that they are the best Judge in such cases; ajid many's the one who was cock ing her cap to be Mrs! Malovvn'y; but fair Paddy was no fool, sq he let them tarry "Oh but he's a purty jbye"-fo:r some o ther market. Well, when he! saw his master looking as if something ailded him, he made bold and ax'd-.his Honor "was the sickness -the lord bjetween us and all harm that was pn himi" "No Paddy, my fine fellow," sia he, "but 'tis sick at hart'I jam; those fifty fine bullocks that M gave the Judge that's to try the lawsuit, Will be ruination to me.' ' ! "Eh, then master" sis Pad, "make your mind aisy, fof call me an omadhjoun (fool) if I don't settle that to your satisfaction- or why?, is'nt there six scorefof ilegant bullocks, grazin below on the! big inch, and tho' there's none of them our own, we may borrow an hundred of the best of era; to go a few miles with a decent bye, to see an honest man jrighted; for though I may purtend to give 'em to him, sorra a one but that will be back again here to morrow morning, plaze God: so pura bould face on yoti. and go to Cork: and if the judge wont use y ou well, hiy name is'nt Pat Malowny." i? The gentleman comprehended the plan in a twinkling, and haying shaken hands with Paddy on the strength of the pro ceeding, gave him a. drop for luck, -which was accepted with cordiality,! ' wishing him success, and prepared to go to Cork, to know whether his hopes Would be brightened. .' . ' . It was a warm day in July, and Paddy had traversed a long and dusty road, from near Mallow, passing by Castle Hayde, and tiat sweet country where the best perfume the field's wild inusic-t through the note town of Fennohy, that's a-one side (at least 'twas then) and just a-ndar the wood of MaccollopJ Paddy espied, eri- veloped inu a cloud of dust a coach and six thundering down tne niu. ... .
