Polly Panay, Aged Seven Mont li?.
Pretty Polly Pansy
Hasn't any hair;
Just a ruff of gold dowu
Fit for ducks to wear;
Merry twinkling blue eyes
Noselet underneath.
And a pair of plump lips
Innocent of teeth.
Either side each soft cheek
A jolly little ear,
Painted like a conch shell ;
Isn't she a dear?
Twice five fingers.
Ten tiny toes.
Polly's always counting,
So of course she knows!
Comfortable legs,
Fat. white and warm;
Very liberal of them
Bless us! where's the harm?
All the various feelings
How express, I beg,
But for that expansive
Telegraph by leg?
If you take a tea-cup,
Polly wants to drink;
Tl you write a lotter. .
What delicious ink!
Helps you read your paper,
News of half the town;
Holds it just as you do;
But ah! it's upside down!
Polly, when Bhe's sleepy,
Menus to rub her eyes;
Thumps her nose 20 blindly,
Ten to ono Bhe cries!
Niddlo noddle mimic in
Pretty lids shut fast,
Hing tho bells and fire tho guns, |
Polly's off nt last! !
Prop her iu her cradle,
Draw the curtains round,
Fists aro good for sucking
Don't we know the sound?
Oh! my Polly Pansy,
Cau it be, can it be,
That wo ugly old folks
Once resembled thee?

ORKNEY,
OR THE
FORTUNES OF JULIET CLAYBURN.
A Tal? ot the Palmetto Stale.

CONTINUED.
lioug did Juliet gaze at the pretty
picture, releasing her hand from its
. imprisonment, for tho sake of greater
convenience;--ia hj>'d?n?_Qpeu the case.
As much as Mr. Vou Oppenheim loved
his sister, and prized this representative
ol her, wo fear he consigned the latter to
tho bottom of the Dead Sea, or souio
other placo equally remoto from his pre?
sent locality.
"What is her name?" inquired Juliet,
when, at last, sho raised her eyes from
the glass-abo was evidently deeply in?
terested in tho young professor's sister.
"Nannerl," he replied, lingering ou
tho name, as ii sweet to the utterance.
"Hhe hus oyes like you, and a mouth,
too, I should say. And you love her very
much-better than you do Rodolph, per-1
haps-better than anybody."
"Very much, certainly,1' he suid.
smiling; "but not better than anybody."
"Whom do you lovo best,"then?" she I
laughingly asked-she enjoyed teasing'
him about Mademoiselle.
"How do I know it would be safe to j
trust you with my secret?" His voice'
was low and trembled. Juliet raised her I
eyes steadily to his face-it was flushed
nod agitated. He bit his lips to hold j
back the paasionate word*, which rose to I
them.
"Von must love her prodigiously," she '
said, laughing. "1 never saw any ono,
so easily teased."
"Vou are right," said Mr. Von Op?
penheim; "I love her with all the powers
of my hoing-better than tho whole
world beside; better than 1 do the God
who made me."
"Ohl that is wrong-it is impious, j
You should not speak so, und I am sure I
Mademoiselle would tell you the same." |
"Whet ha? Mademoiselle to do with
it, pray?"
"Do listen-us if, nt least, I did not
havo comniou senso."
"Perhaps your penetration is at fault,
though. Tt is all wrong in this casi . T
assure you, T like Mademoiselle only as
a friend."
al''Whom do yon love, then? If I guess,
will you tell me?"
"Yes."
"It couldn't be Cornelia?*
He laughed outright.
"Hardly," he said, drily, and with that
expressive shrug which always made Ju-1
liet laugh.
"I believe in my souLitia^biaaU**-*
'?"?'?^i'i'iiMlliii'HillV-TT ! musing a
"long time. She evidently felt that she
had mado a startling discovery. 1
"Wrong-all wrong," declared Mr. 1
Von Oppenheim.
"Truly?"
"YOB-truly and candidly."
"Who on earth can it be? Please toll
me-I cannot guess."
Mr. Von Oppenheim did not speak.
Ho was debating within himself whether
he should tell her or not. It would bo too |
gn at a risk, ho decided. She was not
prepared for it, mid ho might lose all by
precipitation. Tho knowledgo must
iromo to her gradually. Juliet miscon?
strued his sileuco.
"Pray, pardon me," she exclaimed, "I
did not mean to pry into your secrets in
this unwarrantable way. I thought it
was Mademoiselle, and that I knew all
ubout il von ranal exnnsome."
. "It is not on my own account, that I
sm silent. Juliet; fur I think you worthy
Of oil confidence," replied tho goutlo
man; "but perhaps it mightbe better for
the present--in short, moreprudou', uut
to speak cf it."
"Perhaps she might object to my
knowing it," suggested Juliet.
"That is it, exactly," acquiesced Mr.
Von Oppenheim. .Tai afraid she might,
bat I will get her consent and tell you
oil about it, when 1 come over for your
birth-day party, lt is hardly necessary
to assure you, I feel highly honored that
you display so kindly an interest in a
matter so personal. "
"But I hope you will not think me
prying-I did uot meun it."
**On, no-no-I oould not. It would
be too palpably unjust."
There was a long, unbroken silence,
which had beguu to be embarrassing,
when Mr. Von Oppenheim stooped and
piokod np Juliet's slato and algebra from
the ground, whore they had been lying,
ul during this interview.
"Had these anything to do with those
tears?" he inquired.
"Everything," ehe replied, thc atmos?
phere becoming moist again. "I will
tell you all about it, Mr. Von Oppen?
heim. It is wrong, perhaps, but I hate
algebra. I loathe the sight of it, for I
hate not the least talent for mathema?
tica. Now, do you seo the use, or the
wisdom, of my father persisting in mak?
ing me study it, when I oould devote my
time to something more congenial? For
instance, I would like extremely to learn
dorman, it is such a favorablo opportu?
nity, vrhen there are so many in the
houso who speak it, and I would have
abundance of time, were not this horrid
algebra in the way. Aunt says so, aud
Mademoiselle too. This morning, I made
a failure in recitation, and it has discou?
raged me dreadfully."
t "Bot you should not be discouraged
from ono failure-it is too slight a cause
-we mast all fail sometimes."
"You, Mr. Von Oppenheim, you, who
ure so wise and so accomplished, do you
ever fail at anything?" aud tho soft eyes
were fixed on his, as intently us if life
<md death depended on the answer.
' "I often fail. Juliet," ho replied, "time

ruefully. "I am sure of it. As long a

This piece of information electrifi
tho young professor's heurt with a seci
thrill of happiness. He must turu aw
his radiant face from her; but would s
Sot hear tho quickened pulsations of 1
eart?
i "I truly grieve for your disappoii

"but remember, Juliet, no circurnstnnc

?JWus he about to iorgot his prudent re?

with tho internal struggle-again ho bit
bia lips, to hold buck tho impatient
words. Juliet did not notice hi? agita?
tion this time. She was turning over
the leaves of the book he had brought iu
with him.
"What a mass of hieroglyphics it
looks to mo. I does not seem possible I
will ever bring seuso out of so mach ap?
parent confusion. What is this book?"
"It is tho celebrated Nibelungen Lied,
au ancient German poem, which has de- ;
scended to us afar back, amidst tho mist
and darkness of antiquity?"
"What is it about? and who wrote?"
sho asked, her faco nud voico expressive
of interest.
"I can hardly givo yon a satisfactory
answer, without being tedious, I fear; for
to j'our practical American curs the
whole thing will sound as a grotesque
combination of visionary events and
improbabilities, fantastic and far-fetched
in themselves, und related in a style at
onco absurd uud horrible. However, I
will attempt a brief outline. It is sup?
posed to have been written during the
nineteenth coutury, either by Heinrich
Von Ofterdinger or Wolfram Von Esch?
enback, The plot is founded ou au
historical tragedy, which occurred some?
time about A. L>. 400. Nibelungen was
tho name of a famous and powerful Bur?
gundian race, and Liied signifies lay or
Bong. The hero culled Siegfrieud is a
charming delineation of character, equal
iu beauty, power and richness of con?
ception to anything contained in the
annals of romance or poetry. The
heorine Chrtemhild becomes transformed
during tho course of tho story, from au
exquisite combination of feminine beauty
and grace, iuto an avenging fiend. I
will not relato any of the particular inci?
dents. They would impress you us a
sublimo emanation of paganism, wild
legendary loro and fantastic absurdity;
but notwithstanding this, the poem is
written in a tone of lofty chivalric gran?
deur, aud abounds in afine lyric romance
of impersonation, passages of fascinat?
ing imagery and an eloquent flow of
wildly touching sentiments. Antiquaries
have called it 'the Northern Iliad.' "
"How 1 wish leonid read it-now this
very minute," exclaimed Juliet, euthusi
a st i cal ly.
"And what is this, Mr. Von Oppen?
heim?" pulling out a pamphlet enclosed
iu tho larger book.
"That is something which will charm
you-you must read that first ol thc
two. lt is ?Schiller's Wilhelm Tell and be
longs to the creme de la creme, of Uer
mau literature. It is one of tho mosl
beautiful productions of our language
aud, in my opinion, the sweotest emana
tion of genius which ever flowed iron
tho author's inspired pen."
"Do you think I will find great difli
culty iu the pronunciation; the wordi
sound so hurd to me?"
"1 dare say it. will como easy with prac
tice," replied Mr. Von Oppenheim, anc
then laughing, "suppose I try you i
little and then I eau judge. Repeat th
words after me."
Juliet did as ho bade her, laughiui
gleefully ut her own absurd attempts t
imitate tho sounds which proceeded froc
her preceptor. Mr. Von Opponheir
professed himself gratified, nay charn:
ed beyond expression, at tho success c
her undertaking, which is not in th
least surprising, when wo take into con
sideration the fact that tho treacheroi
seamp had been making her say all mal
uer of sweet things to him!

lt is impossible to say how loug 1'
lessor Von Oppenheim would hnvo 1
tureil on this fascinating subject, w
such charming company, in such
charming spot; but Rudolph interrupt
thom. Ho hnd come ont, in search
Juliet, to vomi nd her of her promise
take a buggy ride with him.
"You cannot munage Ludy Bl essi ;

mined voice. "Yon really mast i

experiment on your own and Miss Ji
et's life."

"No," answered Rudolph, in a deci<
tone, his features assuming an express
of blank disappointment. "But, Uc
Karl, just this one time. Will you
iel us try it? Lady Blessington ii
gentle as a lamb; I'm sure sho is; are
promised to curry Juliet some partier

Juliet-will not you?"
"I was renllj' anxious to go. Bnt {
haps aunt will not mind driving over
tho carriage, lt is only out ia
country a few miles, to deliver a n
which came in father's letter I
morning."
"We eau easily manage I hut," rep]
tim professor. "It really would not be
sa??,-?uHsi, to trust Sndolph'a manage?
ment of Lady Blessington, and-"
"Ami ii we started with the pony,"
sighed Rudolph, "we'd get there j ast in
time to hoar tho last blast of Gabriel's
trumpet."
"Wbiou, is not so wide of the truth,"
agreed Professor Yon Oppenheim, join?
ing in Juliet's laugh; "and, such being
tho case, you would better appoint mo
your substituto for this afternoon. To?
morrow, yon can have your pony mlo
just the same, and porhaps there will bo
a greater probability ol your making

"I will be really obliged to you," re?
plied Juliet; "and, Rudolph, to-morrow
afternoon. 1 will ride with you und the
pony.'
"lt will be nu exhilarating affair, from
all accounts," laughed Mr. Von Oppen?
heim; "but come, 'bonnie lassie,' to tho
house and ou with your trappings
"There sink? the nebulous star wo call the
san."
They arose to carry thoso pians into
ex?cution. Mr. Von Oppenheim nodded
significantly hi Rudolph, saying, itt a
teasing way: "Shu says she loves your
undo better than she docs you, J t ii -
dolph."
"Do you, Juliet?" used H .idol ph, ap?
pealingly.
"N o. Decidedly not," and shu laughed
"silverly as a st.ng."
"I know it," declared Rudolph, willi
in air of sublime, satisfaction, "i know
too well, what she thinks of you. She
Hays you aro thc very wickedest man she
aver knew in her life!"
"What arc some of my sins and in
Amities?" inquired his uncle.
Hut Rudolph did not hear tho ques?
tion, having received a reproachful
glauco from Juliet, in answer to which,
lie remarked, in self-ex ten nation:
"Now, you know you said so, Juliet.
It was only yesterday."
"What did she say, Rudolph? Win
nu Iso horridly wicked?" it ga ti in torro
gated his uncle.
Juliet placed her hand over Rudolph'i
mouth, but Mr. Von Oppenheim cattgh
tho hand and held it, ?jivin^ RtldolpL
Free uso of his lungs.
"Now lor your disclosures, if you
please."
Thus encouraged, Rudolph laughingly
began, stroking off each point with tho
Angers of his right band.
"In the first placo, Uncle Karl, she
says you are a perfect heathen, because
yon never go to cbarob. In the second,
you do all sorts of wicked things on tho
Sabbath, playing cards and all kinds of
music, whereas you only ought to per?
form things of a devotional character.
Thirdly, you smoke too much; and
fourthly, you are too grievously addicted
to lager beer."
"I? that ell?"inquired Iii? uncle, draw?
ing a long breath.
"I believe it.ia all I eau remember at
present,'' and with a defiant grimace,
Rudolph mude his escapo from the bower
and ran towards tho house.
"A most horrible category," said the
young professor, turning to Juliet; "I
.suppose you think, enough to sink me
irrevocably to the bottomless pit?"
"You can repent, you kuow," sug?
gested Juliet.
"Why, certainly I can -I didn't think
of that. Hut somebody must convince
me of the wrong before my cwuversion
becomes pennine. Will you undcrtako
it, Juliet? and as we l ido along this after?
noon, show mo the hann in lager beer
and a meerschaum."
Whether Juliet succeeded in this at?
tempt, wt; will not say; but Professor
Von Oppenheim, if he continued to
smoke his meerschaum, ordrink his lager
beer, smoke aud drank in the privacy of
his o MI apartment, and not ns hereto?
fore, in whatever place happened to be
most convenient--fruin the library to tho
dining-room.
