THE GUERILLA BROTHERS. 1 '' A SPANISH TALI V The spirit of chivalry which at one time k shed a lustre over the name of the unhappy ' Spaniard, seemed to rekindle fur a moment in the day of their degradation rwhen the giant tread ot Napoleon echoed along me track in which the Roman, the Goth, and the -Moor had successively preceded him and the annals of those desperate struggles which ensued, afford examples of hish enthusiasm and heroic valor which seem to belong rather to the history of former times than to the dark and blotted page of the present. Among the desperate adventurers of Meri- da's band were two brothers noted for their daring courage, if courage it may be termed, which sets every calculation ot danger ai ae ' fiance. They had volunteered into the band ' at the same time.' following the same for tunes, sharing the same dangers, and reaping ' the same glory, it may be supposed mat un known and unfriended as they were, the children of the same cradle would have elung to each other with a warm and confi ding regard; but in lis place a strange mys terious reserve seemed to govern their mutual intercourse. A superficial observer might sometimes have believed them to be enemies; but there was nothing of the bitterness or the hypocrisy of hatred, either in their silence or their looks: Once or twice a burst ( natural . feeling was observed, but such exhibitious . seldom broke in upon the Habitual calm ae meanor they had assumed. .- ' There singularities of disposition were ascribed by their comrades to different causes some attributed it to blighted love others to the conflict of religious zeal with patriotic enthusiasm. By decrees, as they pursued the dangers of war, their confidence appeared to forsake them, their ardor became different from that instinctive impulse which prompts on young and fearless hearts to court danger for the very honor of opposing it; mistrust and suspicion usurped the place of fraternal affection; a cold reserve locked up in their bosoms every kindred sympathy; their noble emulation degenerated into a desperate and unnatural rivalship; even in the mad career of victory their enthusiasm seemed to bear some reference to the impenetrable Inought which governed their destiny, and at length the fact became certain trom repeated obser vation, that the one only rushed into danger that the other might be forced, by some se cret compact, to follow. In one of the wildest solitudes of the Sierra Morena had the followers of Merida stationed themselves to harrass the march of the French general. A desperate and bloody struggle was the result, and among those who most distinguished themselves in the feartul con test, were the Guerilla Brothers. One of them appeared to be the directing genius of the slaughter; wherever the fight was thickest, there was he foremost; at every cessation of actual struggle, his eyes were turned towards bis brother, who, although severely wounded in the beginning ot the engagement, was still seen sometimes by his side, but more frequently toiling after him in his furious career, vainly struggling to gain the place where the fierce and haughty glances of the other seemed to dare him to take. The signal for retreat had now sounded, and the Guerillas were suddenly beginning to se parate, each taking a different route to their common rendezvous, thus melting away at once before the eyes of the baffled enemy, - snd eluding his grasp, just at the moment when fresh reinforcements from the glen as sured him of being able to annihilate their , Mender force at one blow. The foremost Guerilla, still unwounded, relinquished his prey at the sound, and, dash ing into the trees, begun to reascend the mountain, when the clash ot arms induced him to turn out of his path. Who can paint the contending feelings which at this moment burst upon his mind the mingled feelings of love, friendship, hatred, hope, fear, pity all things that can warm, or chill, or melt, or madden the human heart, were there pre sent. . A single blow could yet save him but one bound, and his interposing arm would preserve the life of the son of his own mother a single shout from his lips would care away the slayer from his purpose. It was but a moment but one moment the next the living statute started from his trance of honor the blade quivered in his grasp the blood rushed into his guilty face and he sprung with a shout to the rescue. It was too late; the blow had descended; . the dying Spaniard turned his face towards his brother, and they exchanged one look the last. The Guerilla's eyes were still fixed on the lifeless body of his brother, when their com rades came to bury the dead, and it was by main force that the living was separated from the dead. He now held in his band miniature portrait, suspended by a pichly wrought gold chain, which he had apparently taken from the neck of his brother, and which corresponded with one he himself wore. These relics appeared, even in his present tate, to be objects of the most jealous care; among many incoherent words he muttered , Guzman and Leonora, the former addressed to his brother, and the latter to some phantom of his federed brain; but nothing transpired which at that time could lead to the know- V ledge of his family or story. . . The dirfracted Guerilla was taken to one of the few remaining convents amongst the hills, which the footsteps of violation and sacrilege had not yet entered, where he re ceived every attention from the pious inmates which his case required ; where mauy months elapsed before either his mind or body acquired sufficient strength to admit of his going once more into the scenes of the world. One day he was missed from the chapel of the convent, at the time he bad devoted, ever since the return of his reason, to peni tence and prayer. Another day passed, and he come not; another, and another. It is not known whether, in some wandering of mind, he had strayed from bis hospitable friends and with the instinct which carries the dove, through unknown paths, to her dis tant home, had reached the valley in which the years of his boyhood were spent.- But home he did return. V, . The light fell softly on the house he had come to seek its well-known gardens, the trees, the walls all things appeared un changed. ' The guerilla approached with a rapid step, but turned suddenly short before he had gained the door. I will not scare her," muttered he, " wilh this haggard vis ige, in the blessed light of day'." and he retired to a distance, from which he might see the house without being perceived. V The last beams of day had at length laded in the valley, and he was astonished to per ceive lights in almost every window; he be came sick and faiut, tor the thought struck him that Leonora was dead. "At length an increased bustle stole on the night air, and he heard the sounds of music and mirth; a dreadful suspicion flashed on his mind, as he recognized an air commonly used in that provinco on occasions of nuptial fetes! and he rushed forward with impetuous haste to the house. . The music and the dance were at the highest, when a confused sound from the porch reached the hall the music ceased, the dancers stopped short in their career, and the guerilla burst suddenly into the apart ment, so pale, so haggard, so unlike the form of a living man that it might have seemed to that startled party, some reproving spirit, coniured up by their ill-timed mirth, trom deep and bloody grave. All shrunk back aghast except the bride, who fixed her eyes on the unexpected guest, while a deatn-iiKe paleness overspread her countenance. " Leo nora!" said the guerilla; she started; stepped forward as if by an uncontrollable impulse, then suddenly paused, as if transfixed by some hideous recollections. With a tremb ling hand, the guerilla undid the gold chains, and bending down, laid the portraits both portraits of herself at her feet; then, rising slowly, cast one long and melancholy look on the original, and saying, in a subdued and broken voice, while he crossed his hands on his bosom. " It is just!" turned and left the apartment. - In vain the music resumed its loudest and wildest strains: in vain the dancers mingled again in the whirl; in train the bridegroom lent his soothing caresses. The impression made on Leonora, by that dismal scene, was never eltaced. The two brothers had loved her with the most violent and impetuous passion; and she, though secretly preferring him who had just stood before her, in a romantic sp;rit of patriotism, bad vowed that he only should ob tain her love, who went forth to the battles of her insulted country, and returned with the brightest laurels: if either should full, the survivor was to bring as a token, the por trait, which, with her own hand, she bound round his neck. The news of the fight we have alluded to, had been accompanied with intelligence of the death of both brothers, probably owing to neither having been again seen in the band; and on this night, with the tears scarcely dry on her cheek, she had yielded an indifferent hand to the solicitations and menaces of her relations. With regard to the Guerilla, nothing more was known with certainty of his fate; but the body of a man, answering his description, was found long after on the ridge of a dis tant hill, which overlooks the scene he had quitted. Some earth was thrown over the remains, and a rude cross raised, according to the custom of the country, to mark the spot signalized by the guilt of man, or the vengeance of heaven. , . ; Modern Samsons. Hon. J. S. Bucking ham, Esq., member of parliament, says, that " the finest and strongest men he ever saw in his life, were a tribe residing upon the Hym malaya mountains. Tbey came to Calcutta as Athletic, to bIiow their skill in wrestling, boxing, throwing the quoit, and other athletic exercises; they were pitted against British grenadiers and sailors, the strongest that could be found ; the result was, that one of them was found a match for three; and yet these men never tasted any drink stronger than milk and water, trom their infancy up wards.

Instinct op Birds. We have received from a lady of our acquaintance the following illustration of the instinct of birds. . Two yellow birds had built their nest in her garden; and there laid their eggs and hatched their young.' The lady having occasion to pass by the next one day, slopped to admire the little birds. On her return to the garden after an absence of a short time, the mother bird came whirling and screaming around her, flying so near as almost to touch the lady's head; this she continued to do until the lady, suspecting that there was some trouble wilh the young birds, Went to the nest. 3!ie there found a snako in the act of swallowingthe second of the three little birds. She was in season to save only one of the three. Boston Traveler, - True Christianity is love to man.

' ' Gilboa, June SO, 1845, t?6i " . ' The Farmers' Library. More than half tlie first number of Th Farmers4 Liberahv and Monthly Jovximi of Agriculture is already stereotyped, and the remaining toill rapidly lollow. we bare ly hope, however to issue the work promp tly on the 1st of July, as some of the Illus trations require more time man we naa es timated, and cannot be hurried. A fine Por trait on Sleel of the late Hon. Stephen Vam Rensselaer will face the title-page, whu an original Memoir of that illustrious mtfS, with especial reference to his labors in and services to the cause of American Agricul ture and that of Popular Education, will open the Journal of Agriculture. We design this as tho commencement of a series of portraits and biographical sketches of early and smi- nent champions of Agricultural Improvement, particularly but not exclusively those of our own country. It is high time that the faro' and honors hitherto monopolized by Warriors, Politicians and Statesmen be bestowed in at least equal measure on those noiseless bene--factors of our race whose tearless triumphs, are won in the domain of rugged Nature, and . of which " the spoils" are enjoyed by thr whole Human Family. The Farmers' Library will open with Petsv holdt's Agricultural CnEMi8TRY,originally published in London last year, and now first printed in this country. This work is lest profound and dazzling than the justly cele brated treatise of Prof. Liebig on the same subject, but it is far simpler, less abstruse, and more readily understood by those who have little or no prior acquaintance with the science of Chemistry. It will b completed in two numbers of the Library (July and August.) and may be bound up by itself if any desire it. It will be found complete, concise, lucid and a signal help to every practical farmer. We have, on mature con sideration, decided to open with this rather than " Stephens's Book of the Farm' an ex cellent work, but very voluminous, and requir ing extensive and continual alterations to adapt it to the wants of Farmers in this coun try. Petzholdi's Chemistry will cover less than 100 pages of the Library. Among the contents of the Monthly Jour nal, will be found a full and clear account of tho application of Electricity to Agriculture in England, its cost and its wonderful results. Also, of the application of Guano the most approved methods and the effect, &c. die. This will be by fur the largest, and we hope the best Agricultural work ever published in this country. The Editor, Mr. J. S. Skinner, devotes himself unremittingly and joyously to his duties, and is determined to show that the projector and conductor of the first Far mer's periodical ever printed in this country has not fallen behind the times. We do not expect many to pay for such a work as the Farmers' Library till they have seen and approved it; we do not expect to receive immediately any adequate return for our heavy outlay in this enterprise; but we are grateful for every intimation of sympa thy with and good will to this publication. Subscriptions and suggestions will be grate fully received by GREELEY & M'ELRATH, 158 Nassau street, New York. Editors, who would like to receive the Library, will oblige us by noticing the above. Reprint, Op Chambers' Edinburgh Journal, pub lished at tho Albion office 3 Barclay street, N. York. The first year of our reprint of Chambers1 Edinburgh Journal being about to expire, we avail ourselves of the opportunity to say, that it has received a support com mensurate wilh the intrinsic merit of tho work, and that its continued republication is therefore established on firm basis. Wa shall feel indebted to subscribers who will make the Journal known in their respective neighborhoods, as well as give currency to the annexed terms of publication. . In order to put this work within the reach of all classes of the public, we have deter mined to issue it at the very low price of one dollar and a half per annum; and also to furnish it to agents at a discount from this price, of thirty-three and a third per cent. And in order to disseminate the publication still more extensively, we have determined to give individuals or companies of indivi duals who may order five copies the advan tages possessed by agents, and to extend to them also the benefit of the discount. A remitance of five dollars, then, provided it be in funds at par in the city of New York, or not more than five per cent, discount, will command five annual copies. The publica tion is weekly, contains eight pages, and is printed in the quarto form, with neat type and on good paper. It is scarcely necessary to state that the low price at which we offer the work, will oblige us to adhere to th cash system without any deviation whatever. Editors throughout the country inserting this Prospectus four successive weeks, and sending a copy containing it to the Albion office, will be entitled to a free copy forona year. LAND AGENCY.
