- LONDON, September 13.-lt is gen?
erally considered that tho events of
the last fortnight have rando but lit?
tle change iu the political condition
on tho continent, either to lessen or
increase the ohanoes of wer. "While,,
on one b>ud> the press of Germany
has aesnmod a quieter tono, nod pro?
fesses to be moro confident of peace;
on the other hand; it is known that
France has refused the final demand
by the Chevalier Nigra, the Italian
Ambassador, tor ' the recall of the
Frenoh troops from Rome; and at
the same time, Prince Girgonti has
brought to Paris tho proposal of
Spain to cement an alliance with
France, by Bending 80,000 soldiers to
Rome. This proposition, and the
approaching interview whick is short?
ly to take plaoe at Bayonne between
the Emperor Napoleon and the
Queen of Spain, are looked upon as
foreshadowing au alliance, the object
of which is to rid France of the care
of the Holy See, in case she should
be plunged into the war, so that by
this means France, if without any
other ally, would make Spain useful.
It is rumored, too, that several
fighting regiments have been ordered
home from Africa; that General Le
Bouf bas been sent , on a special
mission to Germany, and that Prus?
sia has determined 1 to ' annex the
Grand Doohy of Baden. These add
to tho leeling of distrust in the per?
manence of peace, and this feeling is
faithfully mirrored in Paris by the
depression of th? Bourse and the
consequent decline ol Rentes, and in
diplomatic circles here,, tho situation
is sumfned upiuthese words: "There
is no fear of war, though .it may be?
gin tOf morrow."

THE LAMP OF ST. JUST.
CONCLUDED.
The BU? was sinking in the West.
Tho spring sky Waa palo and olear,.
j with broad delicate bonds cf color Sa.
j tbo Western horizon. It was the'
bour when tho flow rs breathe their
richest odors, and the languid air
?7as so hushed, that Jean and Rosse
lin'de gradually became silent, happy
beyond expression. For them there
was no world but that of their own
hearts, and in the selfishness cf hap?
py love they had not even a thougut
for the dread ful ravages of the plague
which for some months had raged in
tho Languedoc.
This evening was to the lovers one
of those pauses in life when all our
happiness seems to lie in the hollow
of tho baud, our very own. At. such
moments youth, however raph, in?
considerate, or poor, is better worth
having than all tho riches and wisdom
of the earth, if shackled with the
slow pulses and prudent misgivings
of age.
Just then, the door of the Gothio
saloon was thrown open, and a tall
female figure, draped in a black
cloak, and wearing a thick black
veil, was seen standing motionless in
the doorway. Jean sprang to his
feet. Displeased at thc unwelcome
interruption of his happy thoughts,
ho asked sharply what brought her
there, and who she was.
"Jean de Lille-Jourdain," sho
said, not heeding his question, "is
not that beautiful child, Rosselinde,
thy betrothed?"
Tho voice was so solemn and
mournful, that the young girl trem?
bled. She foresaw dimly some sad
story of a former love, betrayed and
deserted for her sake, and she cast a
terrified glance at Jean's troubled
face, and seemed to see the fabric of
her happiness crumbling into .ruins
at her feet.
"Auswer her, Jean," she said, her
voice broken by tears.
Tho young mau shook his head
with defiant movement, as though to
rid himself of the uneasiness which
he could not define, but which,
nevertheless, made him feel guilty
and awe-stricken in the presence of
the unknown and unbidden guest.
"Yes," he said, curtly, "she is my
betrothed."
"Good," nuswored tho woman,
who, desceuding the two steps which
lcd into the apartment, closed the
door carefully, and advanced ciose
to Rossolinde, who, cowering like a
frightened dove, saw the stranger
bond over, and through tho veil two
burning eyes, which seemed to read
her inmost thoughts.
No ono spoke till the stranger, let?
ting fall her words one by one, as
though she were thinking aloud,
said: "Yes, she is in truth beautiful
more beautiful than I could have
hoped."
"What concern is it of yours?"
cried Jean, angry nud impatient.
"What concern is it of mine?"
answered the womau. "Ah, much!
When I see her so lovely, so pure, so
gentle, I feel that tho love which
she must inspire in your heart is no
frivolous fancy, tho destruction of
which would cause but a passing
pang. My concern with her beauty,"
she continued, turning suddenly on
Jean, "is that I know what fearful
torments you will endure in quitting
her forever."
"Quitting her forever!" cried
Jer.n. "Who has admitted this wo?
man? What does she want with us?"
"I come," she replied, "to waru
you and your lovely bride of a great
danger which threatens you. Au
implacable enemy has matured a plot
against your happiness, and tho end
of this plot is to separate you from
I her you love."
"No enemy can reach mo here,"
said Jean, proudly. "Rebind theso
well-proved ramparts, and with my
good sword in my baud, I fear no
man, not the Count de la Foix, nor
Armagnac-nay, not the King of
France himself."
"Your enemy is none of those,"
returned the woman; "it is but a
poor weak a woman, whoso life you
have destroyed, and who yet. despite
your ramparts and your sword, holds
in her hands a vengeance as certain
and inevitable as that of God him?
self."
In saying these words, sho again
approached Rosseliude, but Jean,
clutching his poignard, flung himself
between them. Although it seemed
absurd to fear a solitary woman, who
was doubtless mad, u cold terror
crept round his heart, and his voice
shook as he said: "Tell mej then,
who are you? what would you have
of us?"
"Who 1 am? I am Diana Mar
rechi, and what I want ''s your life."
Theso words re-assured Jean, who,
ashamed of his unreasonable and in?
voluntary terror, looked calmly and
disdainfully at the speaker; but she
continued: "Yes, I hm Diana Mar
rechi, who knelt at your feet to ask
with cries and prayers the boou she
craved; it was not much for yon to
grant-it was more than lifo to mo.
I only asked you to leave mo, half
naked as I was, under the bitter snow
and wind, sitting in the darkness of
the bitter night, on the cold thres?
hold of tho home you had made deso?
late, to wait for my lover-my lover
who is lost to me forov?r. A.h! I am
she who dragged herself on tho
ear+h and clasped your knees in vain.
I am she whom you spurned with
your foot. You know me now?"
"Enough! onough!" cried Jean.
4'Leave thia at once, or I shall have
you tamed out liko a dog, by ruy
men."
"They will not dare to touch me,"
answered Diana, bitterly.
"I shall do it myself, then," ox
claimed Jean, exasperated beyond
bounds; and springing towards
Diana, he seized her by the arm,
and waa about to thrust her from
tho saloon, but she, clasping his
hand in both hers, pressed it with a
convulsive passion, clung to it, and
robbed it botween hers. Jenn, never?
theless, had neatly reached the door
with the struggling half-wild creature,
who seemed to bo seeking the con?
tact with him which was produced
by her resistauco to his efforts, her
frantic inexplicable movements sud?
denly ceased.
"lam satisfied," she said, with a
long gasping sigh. "I will go, I will
go. Grant mo one favor. Let me
look once more on your bride's fair
face. You have ruined my lifo,
blasted my hopes, lost me my lovo.
For alli tho ovil you have wrought
me wo shall quit, if you grant me
this last favor. Ohl you can hold ray
baud, if you fear for her. I swear by
my soul that I will not touch her.
I only wish to look on her face once
more."
Rosselindo had taken refuge iu the
arms of the Lille-Jourdain, and Jean,
actuated by a vague repentance,
although holding Diana's hand firmly
in his, allowed her to draw him to?
wards his terrified love. All wore
silent. Diana stood looking at Rosse
linde, and then, throwing back her
veil, and pushiug Jeau towards the
young girl, cried, with a harsh laugh:
'Rosseline do la Baume, here is your
lover, to be your husband to-morrow
"ean do Lille-Jourdain, whom
Diana Murrechi, presents to you!"
At these words, at the sight of that
dreadful face, tho fantastic fear which
bad possessed the hearts of the
three people, so happy but a little
while before, took a substantial and
horrible shape. Jean tried to rid
himself of the hand whtch held him;
Rosselinde fell on her knees with
clasped bauds, imploring Heaven's
mercy; and the lady of Lille-Jour?
dain, ber eyes wide and her cheek
wbito with terror, remained as mo?
tionless ns though turned to stone.
Diana laughed again.
"Well, Sire de Lille-Jourdain,"
cried she, "of what avail aro thy
ramparts and thy sword against the
revenge of one weak woman? Yes,
wretch, stare at mo with stupid,
frightened eyes. Yes, it is true, I
am plague-stricken; and with the
death-pang on me, I have crawled
here to do my will. I have poisoned
you; you have in your body the
germs of death. Lovely Rosseliude,
see how beautiful your bravo lover
is. No, by my faith! not even my
Joez was so handsome."
Rosselindo, half distracted, was
about to throw herself into Jean's
arms, but avoiding her with horror,
he cried: "Go! go! don ot touch me.
I nm no longer thino lover. It is all
over. Do not como near me!"
"He is my lover, now-my own!"
cried Diana. "Soe, Rosselinde, how
I love him."
And then, fastening herself on
him, winding her lithe figure round
him as if she were a serpent, she
clasped him in her arms, covered his
forehead, cheeks and lips with loath?
some kisses, and growling liko a
hyiena tearing her prey; and all this
while, Rosseliude and the agonized
mother could only look on with
anguish and tears, seeing their
beloved one growing weaker and
weaker in the h rriblo struggle.
At the noise the valets carno
running to the door, but the
sight of Diana seemed to paralyze
thom, and they dared not approach
their miserable master. At last,
Jean ended the hideous contest by a
blow of his poignard, which went
straight into Diana's heart.
During the struggle, the lady of
Lille-Jourdain had vowed an offeriug
of a splendid silver lamp to the
church of St. Just, if her sou's lifo
should be spared. She also gave six
fruitful vineyards to tho canons of
the church towards the maiuteuanco
of tho lamp; and such was the effect
produced on tho saint by her piety
and devotion, and so earnest were
his intercessions, that Jean recovered,
after a iong and dangerous illness;
but his left hand, which Diana had
bitten in her fury, was dead and use?
less forever after. To whieh circum?
stance is owing tho fact, that in the
history of tho wars of tho peoplo of
the Lauguedoc against the English,
tho Sire de Lille-Jourdaiu, who is
mentioned there many times with
honor, is always called the "Seigneur
of tho Dead Hand."
A Colorado man having "adver?
tised" his absconding wife, she puts
in a reply that, so far from having
left his bed and board, she owned the
bed and took it with her.
