THE SU22ISER E 7EUI3T& RIDS ; OR, THE GIPSY'S THREAT. Br COSOI-IV It CRISWELL. It was about the middle of June, on a de lightful afternoon, about two hours before sunset, that Eugene Stockholm, a young in .in of fine personal apnearanee, of excellent, cha racter, and the son of a wealthy father,ordered hi s groom to saddle his favorite steed, Scipio, ior nis evening ride, I j t minntp' tl In ten minutes the noble, prancing animal was led to tha door, his bright eyes sparkling with spirit and his fine, glossy neck arching in its pride. It was not at all suppnsi ng that his kind young master gazed on his favorite with proud pleasure, and that he stroked fondly the glossy neck and llowing black mane of the restive steed. Hugh held the stirrups for his master to mount, and scarcely had he touched the Sad dle when Scipio, with a bound like that of an antelope, sprung wildly away up the oak-shaded avenue and into the high road, with the swiftness of the light-winged arrow. At the. end of a mile, Eugene drew him up to a slow canter, and turned from the high way into a winding lane, sheltered on each side by cedars, elders and sweet-briars, the fragrance of which last was most pleasant to the sense of the young equestrian, who pluck ed soma of the blossoms as he slacked his horse to a walk. Eugene now rode slowlv onward till he came to a wide stream that crossed the road, over which was a narrow wooden bridge. The rivulet, which had its source in the mountains, meandered away along the valley into flowery fields redolent ot clover, until it mdQn d rf hi The r wards, that Eugene could distinctly see the many-colored pebbles and shelb lying at the bottom, and the shining trcut and other fiih chasing each other as if in sport, through the limpid element CX As Etigeue lingered for a few inomenis with his eyes tixed upon the stream, he was star tled by a voice at his side, as soft aind silvery as the echo of a Syren's song. Turning his head, his glance fell upon the light fragile figure of a young girl, apparently not more than sixteen, whose countenance of fair and dazzling beauty was turned imploringly upon him. ' ':." X "Charity! Senor.n ; ..' - The young man looked wanderingly upon her. Her dress, air and accent, were foreign, and her eyes, eyebrows, and hair, were of un common blackness and beauty.: The color deepened on her cheek; as his gaze lingered upon her face, ; and sho spoke again, - X' " : .'"'X- X' 44 1 can read your destiny, Senor. You h&tQ bright days ' before you-yonr. dearest wishes will be granted ito you -ytfa will .be great, honorable and happy. " H " ; Eugene - smiled - gently as ' he ' replied, " Thanks, fair maiden, for thy prophecy. I doubt not it will come i to pass, vlrcn ut crtdi by lips as pure as thine."

Ejattd and alnio-t confident xf apfroaching happuitss js these things floated through his mind, he shook th? reigns of his mettled steed and sped onward in a circuitous direction, until he J reached his stately hoine, where obsequious' servants waited to receive him. - ' His parents were seated in the parlor as he entered.'1 Mrs.!
