Oh, mottmful wind of midnight, cease Td breathe your Tow, prophetic sigh; Too clearly for my spirit's1 peace I see the mellow days deoroaae, And fell December drawing nigh. Fall silently, October rain, Nor take that wailing under-tonn Nor beat so loudly on the pano The sad, monotonoua refrain, Whioh tells mo summor-timo has flown. Be charier of your golden days, { Oh, goldenest month ot all tho throng! Oh, pour loss laviahly your raye! Hoard carofully your purple haze, So, haply, it may last moro l?ngl Spendthrift Ootober, art thou wiae. Who wastoth in thy plenteous prime More beauty on the earth and skies, . More huo and glow than would suffice To brighten all the winter-time? Yee-better autumn, all delight, And then a'winter all mildest, Tliau months of mingled dark and bright, Of faded tints and pallid light, Imperfect dreams and broken rest. Ah, better if our lifo co aid kn?w Ono wholly happy, perfect year, One time of -cloudless joy ana glow And thon its days of rayless woe, Than this commingled hope and fear. Thia doubt and dread which naught con? soles, Whioh marks our brows ere manhood's prime; Tho dark uncertainty which rolls lake chariot wheels across our souls, And maltes us old before our time. So pour your light, Ootober Bkiosl Oh, fairest BkieB which ever arel Put on, O earth, your bravest dyes, And smile, although the cricket cries, And winter threatens from afar! THE COUNCIL OF TES. CONCLUDED. "Good evening, Voorn," said tho duke. Voorn returned the salutation gruf? fly, for he knew that the crafty man would try to flatter him -with soft words. The bravo handed him his stool, -while he seated himself on the table. There was a momentary si? lence, when the dake said : "Voorn, I came on business." "Glad to hear it, for my stiletto is beginning to rust," replied tho bravo, with a grin. "Then it shall rust no longer," said the dnke. "But seo if thero are any listeners." "I will do so;" and Voorn arose and went oat. He saw a form crouched below his window; he ap? proached and asked, "is that you Pedro?" "It is," said the spy, in a low voice. "Remove that stone and listen, for ? have an important visitor to-night." Ho returned and reported that he had found no listeners. "In the first place," began tho duke, "I will ask if yon make any distinction between youth and old age in your business?" "I do not," replied Voorn. ' 'Have you noticed an old man with a long white beard, walking in the atreete of Venice?" asked the duke. "I have. "What of him?" said the bravo. . "Well, I want him removed." "Ah, I seel You want him silenced forever," said the bravo, in a busi? ness-like manner. "Exactly; can you do it?" said the crafty man. "I can; but I must have pay," re? plied Voorn. "Of course; how much?" "Twenty talents." "You shall have it." The duke arose and poured the gold forth on the table. | The bravo looked at every piece, and said, "it is right. I will finish him this week." "That will do; but bring me his iron ring as a proof that the deed is done," said the dake; and in a mo? ment he was gone. The bravo recounted his gold, and placed it in a drawer in the table. The duke bad not been gone long, when Pedro di Alberto entered the samo room. He looked li ko an old man, but he soon threw off his dis? guise, and stood revealed. He was a noble-looking person, in the prime of life, though there were marks of sor? row in his face." "A good night's work, my friend Voorn," said the spy. "Indeed it is; and for the money. I must kill that old gray-haired man," and the two mon laughed. "Henceforth that old man will not be seen in Venice," said Pedro. "Give me the ring, Pedro," said Voorn. Pedro took the iron ring from his finger, and handed it to him. "I guess the dake does not know that I also am a spy of the Ten?" "Of course not," replied Pedro. "Now is my time for revenge. Yon know what made me a bravo, Voorn? Bnt for that dake, I might have been a happy husband and loving father. I swear that he shall stand before the Teni" and ho brought his clenched hand down on tho table. "Yes, and the League of Twelve, too!" responded Voorn. "Yes, they shall all stand before the Ten, and be judged," said Pe? dro, loudly, aa he thought of his past wrongs. They divided tho twenty talents, and Pedro wont to his abode. At the next mooting of the "Twelve," the Duke of Milan report? ed that Pedro di Alberto waa dead, And to prove his words ho showed the iron ring. Tho members of the League were satisfied, but in their last dying hours they found that they had been deceived. Two we?kn inter, as tbs Duko o? Milan waa walking in the streets, be was surprised to havo a letter handed to bim. He went home and oponed it. The words were full of meaning, and bis obeoks grew pale as he read them. Tho letter ran thus: "CHARLES, DUKE OF MITRAN: YOU are commanded to stand before the Ten; refuse, and you die. To-night ia the time." Thero was no signature to it, but the duke knew there Tras no use for one; its v:ords were enough, and be awaited with fear the approach of night. It came; two men, wearing masks, appeared to convey him to the Council of Ten. He allowed him? self to bo blind-folded, and be soon stood in tho judgment chamber. It was a large hall, and tho duke shuddered as ho looked around and saw tho huge instruments of torture. The black-robed judges took their seats, and a voice oried out: "The Teu aro in council." The chief now arose, and said in a loud voice that clearly sounded in the hall: "Charles, Duko of Milan, you ore to be judged for two things; first, for belo n gi ng| to an order-the League of Twelve; secondly, for wishing tho murder of Pedro di Alberto. What say you? Guilty or not guilty?" "Not guilty. I dare you to show proofs!" said tho duke. "Witness, come forth!" exclaimed the chief. Pedro di Alberto and Voorn ad? vanced, with uncovered faces. "The dead is alive!" cried the guilty man, sinking senseless to tho stone floor. Stimulants revived him, and be was put to the rack. While under that horrid torture, ho told all ho knew about the League of Twelve. As be was expiring, he called Pedro to bim and said: "Pedro, I have wronged you. Heaven forgive me!" and his soul left his mangled body. Before another mouth had passed, the League of Twelve was extinct. Ono by ono tho members bad stood in tho chamber of tho Ten, and died on the torturing machine. Pedro di Alberto continued in the service of the Ten until it was de? stroyed, when ho went to Genoa, whore be perished at tho hand of a bravo.
