..Father," sh? began timidly, and
paused; but tho emperor set bis cup
down with an air of sucb unbounded
satisfaction, that she took courage to
proceed. "Father, I ask as a boon
what my mother's daughter may
claim as a right. A grand-child of
Charles tho Bold may protest against
a marriage with any but the bravest
of the brave. Her'hand is tho meet
reward of bim alone who bears him?
self best for a summer's day in closed
lista. Mamma told mo so only yes
. terday, and what would grand-papa
have said, if ho could have heard I
was to ho married like a miller's
daughter, without a drop of liquid
spilt moro precious than a few flasks
of Rhenish?"
She spoko iu German, of course,
and in high flown language; but our
translation, thougb colloquial, con?
voys as nearly as possible what she
intended to say.
Maximilian pondered and looked
profound. To oppose Mary of Bur?
gundy, was in itself no tempting
venture. . All that family, as bo used
to observe, require tho most deUcate
management; and in bis few collisions
with his empress, ho had invariably
come worst off. But to contravene
any established dictum of hers, in?
herited from her ' tempestuous old
father, why it was not to be thought
of. Ho had not the nervo to do it.
"Besides," thought the emperor,
staring Visely into his cup, "Otto of
Ehenheim is a formidable warrior.
I have seen tho best of our champions
go down before him like barley in
harvest time. He will not- tilt tho
worse that ho id fighting for an Arch?
duchess of Austria. Supperment! ho
shall win her with his lance, and
everybody will be satisfied."
So he woko tho jester with a hearty
kick, at which that professional,
though wincing from an application
delivered with tho pointed shoo of
the period, was fain to raise an ill
dissembled-laugh, and implanting a
kiss upon his daughter's forehead,
exclaimed:
"Be it as thou wilt, my loss. Thou
art thy mother's own child, and
doubtless art ever best pleased in
the midst of confusion and strife.
Let them fall to blows for thee, an'
they must; and perhaps tho victor
may find, ero all bo done, that ho too
has met with his match."
So ho dismissed her from the pre?
sence, and summoning his heralds,
commanded n grand tournament to
bo proclaimed for that day week,
specifying tho conditions of thc con?
test, and tho value of tho prize.
Cunning Maximilian reflected that
tho shorter notico given, the fewer
competitors, and consequently tho
better chance for his favorite, Ott,o of
Ehenheim."
And now was running to and fro
about the precincts of the court, and
despatching of retainers hither and
thither, nud much inspection of
horse flesh, and proving of mail, and
driving of armorers to their wits'
end; for a week was but a brief
period of preparation for snellman
event as a tournament in which an
emperor's daughter was to bo the
prize. Every man thought his
chanco as good as another's, and
resolved that no deficiency in charger,
weapons, or accoutrements, should
give his antagonist tho slightest ad?
vantage. Business, as wo should
say in these commercial days, re?
ceived no inconsiderable impetus.
Sigismund of Kalbsbraten gavo Leo?
pold, Count Schmarn, fifty gold pieces
on tho for a new fashioned head
piece, which ho had long hoped to
come by in a less honest manner;
whilst Rodolph tho Chatelaine ex
oh fia ge tl a suit of Milan chaki-armor,
Without a marmor, for a famous bay
steed belonging to the Lord of
Ehrenbreitstein. The courtiers' ton?
gues ran more nimbly than ever, and
tho ladies, could hardly be expected
to keep silence on so congenial a
topic.
Otto was evidently tho favorite,
especially amongst the latter; and
although many of those gentle parti
zans, for sundry reasons, did not
care to have him married, perhaps,
there was but one feminine heart in
the whole court that would leap to
see him vanquished-and that heart
was beating beneath the bodice of
the fair prize herself.
. He took it very coolly-he always
did take matters coolly; hut while ne
abated not one jewol in the splendor
of his horses and armor, not without
a strong conviction on his own part
that he must win, if ho only did his
best. These imperturbable, resolute
champions are tho most dangerous
adversaries.
And whilst the whole palace was
alive with* bustle and shouting, with
tho din of armor, tho flashing of
torches, and tho discord of many
voices, how still and quiet were those
two in the shade of the pine forest,
with the spring bubbhng softly up at
their feet, and the evening star shed?
ding its rays calmly down upon their
pole, loving faces.
Hand-in-hand, with many a pretty
oath and foolish vow between, had
they talked over tho corning tour?
nament, and the chances of victory
for him whose arm was nerved hy
the smiles of his beloved. Of course,
at first she would not hear of his
entering for tho prize. She would
hevor endanger . her dear Karl's lifo
forsooth, not she! and he must give
her up.and not think about her any
more, and be satisfied with her as?
surance that she could never, never
forget him; and of.-course, ii he had
taken her at her word, she would
have been infinitely disgusted, and
rated him as low as he would have
deserved. Then, on cutting short
all this kind of thing, rather brusque?
ly, but in a sufficiently pleasant
manner, * tho subject came to bo
more practically discussed, and tho
archduchess did not scruple to ex?
press her high opinion of tho Land?
grave's prowess, and intense dread
that ho would prove tho conquerer
and winner of tho prize. Doubtless,
before the lauco of whomsoever tho
Alsatian went down, tho knight who
laid that lance in rest would obtain
Clotkildo's hand. Must not Karl
reserve his forces as much as possi?
ble for this formidablo antagonist,
so that the result of tho tournament
should ind^c^l be a dnel between the
two wearers of tho violet? And
then, could tho Count of tho Fen
but come into tho struggle a fresher
man thnn th? Landgrave of Ehen
hoim, what doubt of victory and
subsequent happiness? "With a wo?
man's enviable faculty of talking
herself into any given opinion in
less than ten minutes, and her im
Elicit faith that the mau sho loves
as only to attempt it, and he must
succeed in any and every enterprise,
Clothilde soon found herself tri?
umphantly anticipating tho result
of tho very contest she had so much
dreaded; nay, before tho increasing
darkness warned them it was time to
part, sha had taken such a jump
into the future as to have settled in
her own mind tho very dress she
meant to bo married in, and even
sundry subsequent arrangements, in
which tho unconscious Karl was to
bear an obedient, unassuming part.
But the evening star ero this was
high in tho heavens, and under tho
shadow of the gloomy pines, the
night, ns tho German says, was
"blackj as a ^wolf's mouth." Mary
of Burgundy resembled tho strict old
darno in the nursery ballad
*'-of Northumberland,
Who kept her daughter ia her hand,"
rigidly enforcing certain rules, which
neither family nor household dared
venturo to disobey. It was not good
to offend the house of Burgundy.
Strong and fiery, liko tile wines of
their dukedom, their blood boiled
np quickly, but took a long time to
cool down. Nobody dreamt of dis?
puting tho Empress' authority
least of all tho Emperor. It .was
high time to part. A hurried sen?
tence-a warinjpressuro of tho hand
two heads bowing nearer and nearer
each other-something that would
have been a whisper, had it not
terminated in a sweeter assurance
still, and Clothilde was hastening
uway through the darkness to tho
edge of the pine-forest, whilst her
lover remained like a statue nt the
spring, listening to catch the last
echo of her foot-fall.
But another foot-full caused Karl
to start ns if he was shot, and crouch?
ing down to tho earth, to put his
ear on its surface and listen for an
instant in nu agony of suspense.
No! there was no mistaking tho long
stealthy gallop, nor tho snuffing
nostrils hunting steadily on the track
of their prey. Ere sho could reach
tho border of tho forest, tho wolf
miist bo upon her-the gaunt groy
wolf, that would pull a mau dowu
if he Hod from him, thtit^maddened
with hunger, after tho sovoro winter,
would tear tho life out of a fallon
prey. Karl started to his feet and
flew along tho path with all tho vi^or
of his stalwart manhood and the
speed of his fresh clastic youth.
Love's oars are sharper than those of
fear. Sho had half turned round to
meet him, when a dim panting shape,
with flaring eyes, bounded np against
her, and boro hor to the earth. There
was a faint shriek-a fierce, stifled
snarl-a dark," rough 1 outline, and a
moss of white draperies on the path.
With an instinct fiercer and more
reckless than the wolf's, Karl flung
himself down to the resoue.
Short, sharp, but decisive, it was
a gallant struggle between the man
and'the brute. .The former had no
weapons save those with which
nature had provided him, and twice
the long white fangs of his antagonist
drank deep from the stream of life.
Once the sharp muzzle was buried
in his thigh, once in his side; each
time it tore away tho dripping flesh;
hut the Count of tho Fen was no
child in a death-gr?pple like this, and
tho grasp of his two strong hands
grew tighter round that sinewy neck,
till at Inst ho got his knee and his
whole weight to bear upon its throat,
and so pressed lifo and breath toge?
ther out of tho long, lean, hairy
monster. "When Karl arose, bleed?
ing, gasping and exhausted, tho
wolf's dead carcase lny stretched on
tho path at his feet. His first c?ro
was the archduchess, but ho was
giddy and faint, and it was hor hand
that wiped his brow and strove to
staunch his wounds with the strips
sho toro from herdress, and her voice
that bade him rest his head on her
knees (for he had fallen onco more)
nn<\ look up in her face, and tell
her he was not hurt to death-her
preserver! her own! She had for?
gotten all about the tournament now,
and the Emporor, and tho Land?
grave, all hut Karl, bleeding, it
might be dying, for her sake!
She was not hurt. Tho rescuer
had arrived just in time, and ere
tho savage animal, which had dragged
her to the ground, could tear away
mere than a mouthful of loco and
velvet and ermine from her dress,
it had found an unsparing enemy in?
stead of a defenceless prey.

THE TRIUMPH OF ART!
. MORE TESTIMONY IN FAVOR OF
Heinitsh's Queen's Delight.
EXTRACTS FROM LETTERS: "Tho
Qucon's Delight ia beginning to
awaken tho attention of onr physicians.
Its remarkable curativo power is seen in
its wonderful effect upon disease. As a
blood purifier, therc is no medicino liko it
known to the profession. A gentleman
told mo that his son has been taking tho
Queen's Delight, and is moro benefited hy
it than hy any other modicino. Ho wants
a dozen bottles."
Extract from a letter: "It ia due to yon
to state in this public, manner, in order
that tho pooplo may know tho truth, that
I havo tried your Queen's Delight, and
fouud it not only what you said it was-"a
puro medicino"-but tho best medicino I
lave ever taken for eruptions and general
bad health. I had an eruption ali over my
body, with impaired digestion and disor?
dered liver, and havo tried a great many
medicines without any benefit. I havo
taken ono> bottlo of your Queen's Delight,
tho eruption has disappeared, my appctito
is hotter, my liver and digestion is im
Eroved. I am satistlcd ono or two more
ottles will cure mo."
Extract from a lotter: "At tho close of
tho war; my constitution was shattored. I
could not oat, sloop or perform any duty
whatever, such was my prostrate condi?
tion. Medicino and medical aid I had in
abundance, such was my condition up to a
few months since, when I began tho uso of
your Queen's Delight. I havo used two
bottles, my constitution is greatly im?
proved, my appetite is good, enjoy refresh?
ing sleep, and am ablo to perform my sh aro
of daily labor."
Extract from a letter-Wonderful effect
of only ono bottle: "I havo used only a
half bottlo of 'Queen's Delight' for boils
and emptions of the skin and itching hu?
mors of tho blood, which annoyed mo very
much. I am entirely cured. ? think your
medicine a valuable "one."
A remarkable case of liver complaint and
headache cured hy tho use of "Heinitsh's
Queen's Delight:" A lady of unquestioned
worth and reputation voluntarily gives tes?
timony of UKI wonderful effects of this
modicino. Sho has been from early years
a martyr to headaches, caused by imper?
fect action of tho liver, producing intonso
headache and pain over tho eyes. She has
takou only four bottles, and assures us of
tho perfect cure it has made. Sho now en?
joys good health. .
Still another: "During last spring, I had
been troubled with obstinate chills and
fever, which, when cured, loft my system
in a wretched condition, blood impuro, and
I was afilicted with an angry, and, as I at
ono timo thought, an incurable, cutaneous
eruption over my entiro body. Tho most
violent remedies suggested failed to work
a euro, until, at tho instance of a friend, I
tried Dr. Heinitsh's Qucon's Delight. Loss
than two bottles cured me, leaving my skin
in a healthy condition. My general health
is as good as over. For such purposes, I
have, ever since my cure, unhesitatingly
?ecommended your Queen's Delight."
Don't buy any but tho right kind. All
genuino Queen's" Delight has tho copy-right
mark on tho outside, and it is thc only
medicino which produces the.so wonderful
cures. For sale wholcsalo and retail at

The Great American Blood Purifier.
QUEEN'S DELIGHT!
THE QUEEN'S DELIGHT, tho great
American Alterative and Blood Puri?
fier, ia tho moBt perfeot vegetable, com
Sound of alteratives, tonics, diuretics and
iaphoretics; making it tho most effective
invigorating, rejuvenating and blood
cleansing cordial known to tho world.
In introducing this now and extraordi?
nary medicino to tho public, observation
leads UH to remark that too little attention
is paid to tho "lifo of all ilcsh," tho blood.
Many diseases, and, too, many complaints,
which havo their origin in a vitiated stato
of tho blood, aro treated only os symptoms
and .results: whereas, if tho remedy had
been-applied to enrich tho blood and ren?
der it puro, both cause and effect would
havo been removed. Tho Queen's Delight
is .offered to tho aMiotod as a sure remedy
for thoso diseases arising from au impuro
condition of tho blood. It has a direct
and Bpcciflc action upon that fluid, and
consequently renders tho blood pure. It
is said, ou high authority, that "man no
sooner begins to live than ho begins to
die, and that tho characteristics of tho
living organism aro ceaseless chango and
ceaseless waste." It is obvious, therefore,
to every reflecting mind, that UIIICBS tho
blood is pure, in supplying tho waste tis?
sues with material, it must bo tho cause ol
innumerable ills and constitutional disor?
ders, such as Scrofula, Rheumatism, He?
patic Disorders, Consumption, Inflamma?
tions, Fevers, Ac. Life and health is onlj
to bo maintained by tho circulation of pure
arterial blood.

or excess, and whoso constitution is im

tho Queen's Delight.
Tho unacclimatod and persons travelin
into warm countries will lind tho Queen
Delight a great protection from all malar
