At tli.it timo, when, the Crescent, over-! thrown umler tho w alls of Vienna, began to! grow pule in Hungary, tho chief of the Elian guerillas was Leikem, a young and fierv ] patriot. Itc constantly harassed tho garrisons't>f Brian, llatvan, Szolnok, and other places, by capturing their envoys and defeat ing t||cir troops. On one occasion he uccom-1 pbshed a vcrv successful expedition by un r.li: ... - . v*l?wwuiv liming ii1>n ii ircwurc convoy in ; (Jvwigj'os, on it* way from Krlan to Huda, cutting down tlio whole escort. While his men were engaged in a combat with tho Turku in the streets of the town,! Leikcm heard a cry for help from a neighboring house, lie loaned otf his horse, rushed in, and found a Turkish soldier ill treating an Hungarian girl. With a stroke of his dashing sword lie split the inlidel's head, and liberated her from his grasp. Exhausted and subdned by terror, the girl lay senseless on tho ground. Leikcm, with tho aid of some women, soon restored her to" her consciousness. Tho girl was the very type of Hungarian beauty, w ith black eyes and hair, the charming Expression of her face heightened by n gleam of gratitude towards her deliverer. To the young man she seemed the fairest of all tho maidens ho had ever beheld. The girl, too, on reviving, thought the chief just what she in her lively fancy imagined a true Magyar hero to l>c?tall, stately, with sparkling eyes, the terror of tho enemy and the friend and willing protector of the helpless and unhappy. In our country love soon takes root, and increases with a rapid and marvellous growth. Tho'vonmr man remained but a short time with tl?<? maiden ; still it. imfflcod to fill ih^ir hearts with a sentiment not easily to bo effaced. Leilcem left a promise of soon returning, but that promise was morccnsily made than fulfilled ; for scarcely had the news of the loss of tho costly convoy reached Erlan than the infuriated Pasha sent a strong garrison to Oynogyos, and ordered a hot pursuit after the bold guerilla chief; so that Lcikem, for a thno, was an unwilling nrisoncr in bis inaccessible lurking place in tho Mav tra. As a punishment for the loss of the money, a contribution was levied on the town of <?yongyo#; and, at the same time, to insult the inhabitants in their most sacred feeling*, tho Pasha commanded tho delivery of twelve ot their most beautiful daughters for the harem of the Parsha of Buda. Tho consternation and the wrath of the poor towns |?eoplo at this twofold outrage knew no bounds; but, conscious of tl?eir weakness, they submitted to tho sentence, and, as neither entreaties iter promises could soften the inlloxibU Turkish commander, presented their girls ^ tor selection to tho officer setit Cor that )>urR poso from Brian. Among the number cbos2kcn was the unhappy Irma. Peikcm speedily received this dreadful in . tcljigcnce. His instant determination was ^ K ' . to prevent tlic maiden from being carried i off; but, for the moment ho *wtw quite at a loss to deviso a plan, likely to prove successful against the numerous garriuon ofCJyongyos. In the midst of this dilemma lie was interrupted by the nriival of a messenger from his uncle, the prior of a monastery of Carmelties in this neighborhood, summoning the chief to an immediate conference, which Lcikem did not delay attending to, knowing his uncle; who had already often agisted him with cood advice dm inliI ? ovnnilitiniio I projected and resolved upon. Two days later an order cnmc to givo np tlic tribute of money and women. The mayor by presents obtained from the commander that the maidens should Lc allowed to ; remain velied during their journey, until they | w ished. At the moment of their departure they were taken in closed litters from their dwellings, and left (iyongyos under a strong escort, accompanied by the fervent prayers of the inhabitants for their safety. As they proceeded very slowly, they did not reaeli Hat van till late in tho evening, whereupon the Aga resolved not to go any further that night. Whilo preparations were making for the nc: comdation of the unusual guests, tho com i tnander of tho fortress attempted once or twice to pay a visit of ceremony to tho maidens ; hut the matron under whoso care they wore,an energetic Hungarian woman,remained inflexible, and after a short contest rescued I them from tho presence of a very unwelcome visitor. At midnight, when all was hushed the sentinel at the door of tho house where tho maidens rested, had ho l>cen more vigilant must have heard, and seen a human form cautiously descending. Tho seirtinel, howevor dreaming perhaps of Mohammed's paradise, remarked neither tho slight noise, nor the fig1 urc in w hom the chief was easily recogniicu, a which by degrees glided down tho high wall, fill it stood like si menacing shadow 1 behind him. Here, ft heavy fall was heard, followed by H dull groan ; then nil became I quiet as before. The sentinel being no longer in the way, eleven other forms, let them- j selves down from tho window, one and all bearing greater resemblance to Stalwart warriors than to gentle maidens. Loikem hastily gave his commands in suppressed voice; and after leaving two men at tlio door of the dwelling, they vanished into the dark mid deserted street which led to tho cast gatcv There tlioy surprised the small guard with equal ability and cut tho men down before they could even think of resistance. liut in spito of their quick and cautious procedings, they wore detected by a Turkish sentinel who lircd his gun, which nrou.scd tho others at their posts on the walls, and the nlnnn drum soon ro-echoed from every quarter of tho place. Not time woe now to bo lost. The gate was forced open with all speed, and the drawbridge let down. Leikcin jjavc a shrill I wjiiAtie, ana on km utmj rejwiiwi m <? ?? i tanco from the fortress, in a short time a hand of 150 bravo men rushed in through | the open auto, Leikein placing hiuisolf at j their Iicwh led them to a decisive attack on; ifco bnsrackt, where the Turks already began ..... &, ? - _ J, i'" to be a wiso and patriotic man. lie found the prior in great excitement ns to iho face of the unfortunate town. Tlio inonk conjured Lcikem, by bis Christian failb and his love for bis country, now to show w bat enthusiasm tbo Hungarian was capable of in tbo defenco of bis rights and bis country women. lie than proposed to him to go tbo town dressed as a monk, and there to agree upon a scheme with tbo inhabitants. The first part of this proposal was easily, effected, as a few hours previously, Dulo, tbo father of lima bud sent to the monstcry for a priest to pray for his daughter, who was then dangcriously ill. Leikein was for a i moment unmanned by this sad information, but by a violent effort bo choked bis feeling and declared his readiness to comply with the wish of bis uncle, lie hastily put on acowl and left the monastery mounted upon n mule. He bad the good fortune to pass the Turkish outposts unremarked, and arrived at the dusk Vf the evening, accompanied by lJulo's messenger, in Gyongyoa. With the capuchin drown over his head Lcikem entered Irion's room. She was much changed during tho few weeks that had elapsed since lie saw her, and was so exhausted that the pretended monk had to bend over her to catch her whispered words, lie could not long carry on his disguise, and was forced to exclaim, with all tho fervor of noble heart. "I am not a monk, Inna. but thy warrior, and am come to cure and to save thee; for as long as 1 live thou shall not fall into the power of tho infidels." At the 6ound of that voice, tho tone of : which she had never forgotten, the girl ! thought she drcampt; but again looking into his truthful, manly face, she saw a happy, realizo nn?l she seemed to live nnow. The guerilla chief likewise disclosed his intention to her fat her, who, cheered by his presonco instantly stole away toothers of his tried and bravo neighbors, inviting them to meet at his house. Tho men came. As it ' was supposed that the escort, with the tri| bute of the town, on proceeding to l.htda, j would halt for the night at the fortress of I lotl van, half way between Gyongyos and lluda, at tho proposal of Lcikem a during plan was to rally in ovor whelming numbers. The bntllo endued in the market place, where the dwelling of the commander and the barracks stood and where tho mass of tho garrison was arrayed. Lei kern's irresistible charge, and the death of tho Vnslia, who f> 11 at bogining of tlie engagement, soon discouraged tho Turks ; darkness and confusion did tho rest; and after a short and sanguinary, massacre they surrendered to the mercy of the vie their hunters, tramp about like dromedaries ! on foot,drive four in hand in their equipage*. | The reason is, they come into the world with good stout organizations. Why American ladies do not heartily join in such out-door exercise is, because they have not vigorous stamina, the overflowing red blood in their veins,tho substantial muscle in their limbs that drive to such exercises n > a rational outlet for their superfluous vitality. Tliochangeable weather here discourage such exercises. Tho vacillations of temperature contrasted with England were referred to its causing much of the ill health of America. The* vegetative life of tho American, and attendant pale complexion, narrow face, faulty tooth, spare outlines, fatigued features, were all only owing to tho notion of the elements and tho imponderable agencies with which ho was surrounded. There was not, however, the lecturer stated, material difference in the longevity of the inhabitants of Old England, nud tho donizensof New England, tho American had strength of endurance?few lotus eaters of lazzaroni are among [thcin.

The garrison still numbered six hundred incn, who wero greatly surprised to find thnt they were conquered by so small a band. Yon w ill hare already guessed that, instead of the supposed maidens, Leikcm and eleven of his men, disguised in female attire, formed the party so carefully escorted to the fortress, which enabled them to accomplish their hazardous undertaking. At the news of tho fall of llatvan the greater part of the inhabitants of tlyongyos tied to that stronghold, to seek shelter against the vcngeanco of the Turks, and they weio determined, in case of a serious attack, to die under tho ruins of its walls. Among the arrivals were Irma and her father Liekcm, now commander of a fortress, the fruit of his bold enterprise, celebrated his marriage with his beloved Irma, w ho was accompanied to the altar by her eleven beau- j t if ill companions so gallantly rescued by the) bridegroom. t ^ K j II i o c Sm c q 1} 611 h) q i c. Dr. Holme*, in a recent Lccturo on the, "Americanized European," says : When a British steamer unloads lior! living cargo at our wharves, at once is re '| cognized the contrast between the resided | and rounded face, tho plump developed limb ; and muscle, as compared with the American., Thev till their coats fuller, they walk more ' briskly, thov articulate more vigorously, they arc warm, jolly and athletic. The change in complexion was attrributed to ditfercnt in climate. The prevalent early decay of teeth was charged to tho same cause. Tho numerous pale faces to bo seen and languid ailments so fashionable, he said, should not- bo attributed to wrong living and wrong habits as they uiainly were. There wore faults in this respect?lamentable faults ?but tho invalid was too much scolded. The lecturer adverted to means within the reach of every American to counteract the baneful physical phenomenon to which he was subjected. The importance of air and exercise was not, he said, slitlieicntly understood.
