'Yes, mother, my heart is sad.'
'Foolish child,' lie has gone to seek

'There is no need lo send for Kat

?And fret yourself to it ghost, no,
Kuf rinn must come and cheer you.1
Kalrina came, with her bright eyes,
and sunny smiles. She was too
light hearted, and free from care, to
be gloomy, and she would no! allow
those around her to mope.
'Come ( nr. tine.1 she said, 'let us
walk to the river, llietc is none more
beautiful than our own dear Neckar.
The fragrance! of the wild thyme on
its bank.-, will refresh you. and if
you like, we will cross t he bridge, and
walk to the lindens; under their
shade, l will loll you a secret.'
'A secret! Have you a lover Kal

'I suppose he called himself such.

'What said be IbenV'
'He became very angry, and said

'My Gustave, may be in peril."
'No more then Wilhelm llarner,
who is with him. I suppose they a ri

?The twilight is going, let us
ret urn."
As they ii eared the house, Kat rinn
exclaimed, -see ('hristine! who is that
with your father." There was no
answer, but ('hristine bounded for
ward to meet (; ustsive.
?What means this? Why is your
arm in a sling? How pale .you are!"
'Calm yotir excitement, Christine,

?You must remain with us and let

'.Many thanks to you, Fran Krlicll,
I will In-glad to stay, 1 know there is
not it better nurse in the town, than
you.'
?How did you receive the wound?'
?1 will tell you nil about il. < 'hris

?Ah! Gustave, 1 regret teil the
knowledge. 1 would have been spar

on \ our telling me.1
?1 dared not tell your mother, why
I w as so sad; G tislave bouuil me to
secrecy.1
Ii was a wild adventure,' said
Hen- Kriicli.
?No. I think not. I f all t he men
bad been as brave as they profess t<>
be, we would have been successful.
<)n reaching the forest, we divided
into two parties, Wilhelm Ihirucr,
b ailing one, and I the other. We
were to reconuoiter, and meet at a
certain place. For four days, wo
saw only traces of i be robbers, and
some of the men became impatient:
bill one afternoon while bur party
were concealed in a thicket, six
mounted men passed, and from their
con vcrsai ion, we lea riled, they ?were
going to ineVt their chief. When
tlu-y were out of sight, we ascended
trees, whose dense foliage concealed
us. Ai sun set they returned, and
paused under the I roe, where 1 was.
The chief told of visiting ditlereut
places, in disguise, mingling with the
peopb- and hearing their opinion of
himself. He bad been in the pre
seneeofthc King, unrecognized, and
while there, he heard the arrange
ments made, lb the transportation
of nob I belonging to (be government.
?1 do not four the soldiers who will
be-enl to protect it." he said, *we can
whip them live, loom-.' The robber
iian l consists of Ibrly seven men, of
these forty were ordered to start at
dawn, to intercept the expedition.
The chief w as not lo go with lIlClll, lie
Would return alone, the same way In
bad come that evening, tllld would
ineel thein during the day. This
arrangement was favorable for us. I
wanted lo take I be chief alive. The
ucxl morning I bad my rope in readi
hess; Ihe roll bur came riding slowly
irlong; with a steady aim, I threw it
over his bead, and look* himotf his
horse. 1 f one oft he men liad gOUU to
him, until I came down from the tree,
our success would have been emu

pletc. While [ w?8 descending, the
noose must huve slipped, ho man ag
ed tu whistle, und was answered. My
comrades deserted me. I knew 1
would have to contend with the re
maining robbers, and 1 eon Id not do
so it lone. I though! of Christine,
und for her snke, I retreated, but, not
before I bud drawn the rope tighter
around t he robber's throat, and given
him :i gash across his cheek. I was
pursued, and shot, the ball passing
through the lleshofiny iirm. In my
High;, I fell into n pit, rnd that saved
my life. It was concealed by the
thick undergrowth, and I heard the
rubbers as they passed. 1 tied n
handkerchief around my arm, ami
then because insensible. When 1 re
covered consciousness, I was loo
wenk to rise. In the twilight, 1
heard steps above me, Iben :i sound
on which wc had agreed,so that we
could liml each other. 1 answered
the signal, und Wilhelm called my
name. When the men whodescrted me
joined, the other party, they report
ed me killed, but Wilhelm would not
give me up so readily, he wanted the
men to join him in sear* hing forme:
when they refused, he came alone,
ind wit h t he most tender care brought
me to-i wood cutter's cabin, on tili'
(Ige of the forest, where we remained
two days, until he could getn man to
take us in a wagon toSttlltgard. I
There I had the wound attended t?'. 1
iml remained until 1 was strong
??nough to come here 1
'Tell me (iustave, where is Wilhelm
now? I would thank him for his
kindness to you.'
He did not wish to be thanked,
therefore refused to come. Had he
known Katrin a was here, I think, 1
could have induced him to change his
mind.'
'Wilhelm cares no more for me,
than he does for any other maiden,
and he has less to say to inc.'
'Because yon receive so much at
tention from ot her young men, he is
afraid to speak to you on I he subject
neu rest his heart. You should give
him an opportunity to tell you of his
love.'
die must seek and lind a oppor
tunity.1
'When he tried to speak,you ran
away.'
'And he was too much of a coward
to follow.'
'Oh! no, Katrinn, Wilhelm is no
coward: he bus proved his bravery.'
?A man may be brave in reselling a
friend, and a coward in making love,
I will not be easily won.'
