a story or ritt nortti of Germany.
Before (lie castle of Gnitrogen, upon
the Bode, one clear summer evening,
I (he bishop Henry of Ilalbcrstadt was
seated with a foreign prellte who had
been his guest fur a month. 'j he posset
drink stood before them in two mighty
flagons. They .had been discoursing
from ten o'clock in tho morning, when
they set down to dinner, about tin: huge
wine tun which a bishop on the Rhine
had just got constructed, and were
agreed in tho opinion that it became
? very eoPh S'nM :eal prince, who would
confer a becoming splendor on his court
to poss ssa similar tuo. Tho affair was
quite settled by both of them. execpUas
to its execution; and their conversation
began now to be interrupted by yawns,
and to ilag on in uiouo syllable*.
It chanced, as good fortune w mid
have it that the shepard Conrad passed
by, driving his well washed (lock across
the castle yard wberr hi-hop Henry u e 1
to review them every evening. 'I
salute you. my lord bishop!' 'Good
evening, Conrad; but where is Harm?'
Conrad whistled, and a beautiful large
rain bounded up first to ihc shepherd
and then to tho bishop, who carressed
the animal and fed him with some
crumbs which be had kept for him
The bishop exchanged a few words with
the shepherd und inquired tf his wed

his flock.
Bishop Henry now extolled the beau
tiful ram wh ch he ^declared he would
not part with for anything in the //oil I,
and then he turned his eulogiu n on the
good Conrad, who he said, was honesty
itself. The foreign bishop laughed i
aloud, for travel into distant couutr us, j
and a frequent stay at foreign courts, ;
had filled him with universal distrust

They were all, ho said, co iibin :d t ?

told a lie or deceived any person iu his
whole Jil'ctitne.
?Nevar told a lie! Never deceived
his master!"' repeated the stranger-bishop
in a tone of irany. 'No!' answered
Bishop Henry; 'he never has; and never
will!' 'Never!' reechoed the foreign
ecclesiastic, 'what will you bei?" Alter
(several propositions, the two bishops
' agreed upon these conditions: first, that
the stake should be an immense tun,
capable of containing one hundred an I
fifty barrels of wine?and, secondly, trait
Conrad, without being made aware of
the wager, should be put to the trial
within three days. The two dignitarios
then parted for the night, right glad to
have found something to amuse thorn
for two or three days to come.
The foreign bishop, before he went to
bed, held, us his custom was, a consulta

nominally his servent. and occasionally
his fool but iu fact possessed a truer

he undertook to find out how a gin

i Beter commenced his^operations with
the rising sun, and before- dinnor hour
was able to report to his master that
Conrad was fn love With the fair Hliza
befh, and that she would not listen to
his 'proposals till he should possess a
little cottage or his own, both being
very poor. The active Fcter had al
ready spoken to Elizabeth, und found
her quite ready to assist in his outer
pri.co; he therefore only required,a hand
fill of flittering silver pieces from his
master to {rain the bet. The bishop
gave him as much as he wished, and sat
down to dinner with good hopes of the
wine tun.
Meanwhile Peter has taken his way
hti< k to the lair Elizabeth; he bhows her
t he i-hil ing coins which almost covered
her little table, and a bargain is quick
ly struck between them; Peter agree
;:;g to purchase for her aoottajo, if she
brought him what lie wanted.
The following morning Elizabeth,
soon alter stitni.", went to cut grass at
a place which she knew Conrad must
pass with his flock. As soon as the
latter perceived her at a distance, he

Conrad was about to take Irs leave

They disputed thus a long while ;
Conrad slied tears in bis ang er. and
Elizabeth at last confessed that she had
-old the ram for the house they had so
often wished to possess, and added thai
she must deliver him up that very day,
cost what it. might, as she had pledged
her word and could not bear the idei of
being called a liar. Sho then shid
tears, lamenting that this unhoped for
pleasure of beiug able to get a house in
which she and Conrad might live com
fortably with their, children, should jo
thus blasted. She asked if sheep were
not every day dying?if' none were over
lost?if none were ever stolen ? if the
wolfe never devoured one, and so on
At last love conquered ; Conrad promised
her to deliver her the ram before noon,
and Elizabeth promised to bneome his
wedded wife in a month
, Elizabeth walked quickly on to the
town, and Conrad gazed wistfully after
her; the pleasure he full in being her
accepted lover was not a little damped

he must undergo from Iii.? kind master,

Eliza I c; h had been culling grass, with
his eyes li.\ed on the ground. At las;
he struck his crook into the earth,
[ placed his coat upon it, and his cap
I above it, and began u dialogue (which
llano occasionally interrupted by hi
inovcmt ii(.s) with the figure thus eon
strucied, which lie incut should renre
seilt tlie bishop.
?(loud evening, my lol l bishop !'
?Thank you, Conrad, where is Harm V
[lanil, my lord bishop ! why he is lost;
indeed he has w indorcd somewhere.'
I At this moon nt, while Conrad was lb is
sjicuking, llano pressed through he
iween his le^fi to examine the figure to
which he saw his master making Ho
many profound reverences. 'Conrad,
Conrad !' oonti' iicd tlui shepherd, in
his fanciful iiiterhditorship, 'Harm
knows his homo ; Ilar.n could net loso
himself! That will not do.'
Another conversation, in which Con
rnd tried to represent tho ram as stolon,
Harm interrupted by a violent blow
with which he meant to answer Ihe bows
ho saw his masty)* making. 'lie is not
so easily caught ' exclaimed Conrad
;That will not do c Ithcr.'
Thus he tulked vith himself for about
half an hour; bit his imaginary diu
logucs always terminated with a shake
of the head and tscse words : 'Conrad,
that will not do V r And yet,' added he.
'I must before noon give up the ram ;
for I have promisodjjt, aud if f?lizihoth
dues not deliver 'it as she has already
sold it, she would be called a liar, and
could not become my wife.'
At last ho jumped up joyfully and
exclaimed : 'Honesty is tho best policy!
That will do!' Ho put on his cap and
li's coat aud drove forward his Ho*k,
and before noon he hail delivered, with
a deep sigh, his darling Harm to Rlizi
beth, who without reflecting any more
about the matter, exchanged him for
;he price of the cottage.
That evening was fixed for Conrad's
trial. Both the bishops waited at their
posset-cup in the castle yard for the
appearance of the shepherd who was to
decide their wager. The bents of both
beat strongly, aud they spoke but little,
fui each had a strong desire that the
honor of constructing the tun might
all to the lot of the other. But Pete,
the privy councilor, kept himself quite
cheerful, aud secretly rejoiced before
hand iu the success of his well-laid plan,
and the certainty ol his victory ; lor he
had already had tho bishop's favorite
ram in his stable, aud how could Conrad
venture to tell the truth, when his
doing so mustdraw upon him the wrath
j of his master and "tfiSpTive^/la^WfJ
i bread forever !
So reasoned the privy councilor;
I meanwhile Conrad appeared driving his
: flock across the castle yard. Peter
smiled triumphantly, for already he
I fancied the could trace fear ami anxiety
I it work in Conrad's countenance.
I That evening no r.ioi^eame bounding
up to bishop Henry, to receive his
accustomed portion. 'Where is Harm?'
inquired the bishop, with a scrutinizing
1 look. 'I have sol.1 him,' cried Conrad;
?ii"W it is out ! Honesty is the heft
policy; that is my motto, my lord
i bish p. a.> you know; and it shall
I always, suit please He.tven, remain my
motto.' Peter's face lengthened ; hut
bishop Henry exclaimed, with an angry
countenance au 1 a threat suing vo c; :
?Why did -you sell him without telling
uic ? I would have given you his price
' ten times told. Ho you not know?'
?Hear me, my-lord bishop,'said Con
j rad. 'Elizabeth tempted me, as Rvu
; tempted Adam ; and Elizabeth was
' tempted by a rogue, as Kvc was by a
foul fiend. If he gives me back my
rain, 1 will not reveal his name.'
Peter turned angrily away, for gone
I were all his glitteriug pieces, and the
scarlet cap besides ; and now the ram
himself was gone also !
'Elizabeth,' continued Conrad,'had
s<dd Hann before telling mo, otherwise
he would never have been sold by me ;
but, as matters s.ood, I was obliged to
give him to her, however sorry I was
for it?else she would have been called
a liar, and she is now my betrothed.
That is the naked truth, my lord bishop;
do now with me what you pleanu ; what
is done is done, only do not punish Kliza
belli?a poor weak woman easily
seduced by any tempter '
Bishop H'ei'ry would have begun to
scold, but Hie other bishop, casting an
angry glsiiicc on Peter, who now with
dl'CW himself, exclaimed : '1 have lost
j |
the wager ; that was the trial.'
So Bishop Henry's wrath w is unsung
cd by the phustirc of having woo tho
wager; but the honesty of Conrad afford
I'd his master im re gratification than
, oven the wine-tun, for it taught hiin also
tho power ol luve, aud what love can do
!?
with men.
'Yes!' oxelaimcd both the bishops,
?honesty Is the best policy !' And
Bishop Henry aided: 'As a roward
of your hottest y I will bo ai the expense
of your redding, and hilt' the ll?ek
shall be yours.' 'And,' added the b.roigil
prelate, '\onr darling 11 aim shall be
restored to you again, and the cottage
you fdiall also rctuiu as a christening
gilt from me to your first child.'
Thus the bishop ?vho lost tho wagor
was led to get i he largo wine tun con
structcd, which formerly a'.trneted so
many travelers to G runingcti, and which
now lies upon the ISptogelsberg near
lialberstadt.
The sharpest torments nre said to be
