A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.
( BY HISS ANNS T. WILBUR.
" There wbs once a young girl who was
jbo beautiful and so good, that (he greatest
prince in Europe, if h had met her in a
cottage, would have left all the princesses,
to bestow udou her his hand and his
crown. Now, far from having seen the
light in a Cottage, this young girl was born
at the foot of the loftiest throne in the
world. ' It was Marie Nicoleewna, the
adored daughter of the Emperor of Rub
's' sia. "' '' ". .". ''
Seeing her blooming as a flower of Mny
and sought by all the heirs of soveieigns,
the czar cast his eyes on the richest, hand
somest and most powerful among them,
and smiling on his idol as a father and a
-king, said to her: 1 " "
'My child, you are now of an age to be
' married, and 1 have chosen the prince who
Vis to'make you- a queen, the man who is
to make you a queen, the man who is to
tender you happy.' ' "I :
'The man who is to render me happy?' j
stammered the princess, blushing,! rith a
sigh which was the only objection of her
heart. ' 'Speak, my father,' added she, as
' she saw her father's brow wrinkled, 'speak
-and your majesty shall be obeyed.'
'Obeyedl' exclaimed the emperor, trem
bling fur the first time in his life; 'is it on
ly from duty that you shall receive a hus
band from my hand?'-? - H ; '., ''
: The young girl '. remained ' silent and
dropped a tear. . '
J 'Your faith is then promised to some
, one?' - ';'"-'
The young girl still kept silence.
J 'Tell me, Marie, I command it.' T '
At this word, which moves fifty-five
millions of men, the princes fell at thte
feetoAhe czaf. .. V .
', 'Well, yes, my father, my heart is no
longer my own'. ' it has bben given to a
V young man who knows nothing of it, who
shall never know of it if such is your de
sire.; He hat seen me only two or three
times, ai a distance and we havo never
spoken to each other we will pever speak
to each other, if your majesty forbids it.'
l ,The emperor in his turn remained silent.
He grew pale- , He paced the .saloon.-
He dared not ask the name ot this , man.
He who would have braved, for a caprice
all the monarchs at the head of their ar
mies, trembled at the thought ot this un-
known being who would dispute with him
bis dearest treasure. '" " '
; Is he a ling?' asked he, at lastr ' iu
'"No: my father. ' ,r '7
The heir of a king?' f -"'v

paused, breathless. ,' 1 1 ; ! : ,! '
i 'A Russian noble?' . 1 .'
No, my father.' ' . '
A foreigner?' j
'..'Yes.f :-..: r. i
Then emperor threw hfmself into a chair
and hid his Cuca in his hands, like Agam
emnon at the sacrifice cf Iphigenia i -
JIs he in Russia?'
'Yes, my father.'
.'At St. Petersburg?'
'Yes, my father.'
. And the voice of the young girl grew
fainter, , ; ; , i ,
- 'Where can I see him?' asked the ciar,
rising. , -
; 'To-morrow, at the review.'
- 'How shall I recognize him?' I
'By his dignity and grace. lie is the
handsomest cavalier in Europe, next to
yourself, my father.! .; - ! : i
;By what shall I recognize him?' re
peated the czar. ii -,;) i i'i A m '?
'By his green plume and black horse.'
. 'It is well. 'Go,- my daughter; and pray
God to have pity on this man.'. '
The princess retired, and the emperor
remained, absorbed in reflection.. .
, 'A child's capricel' said he. 'I am fool
ish to make myself uneasy about it. She
will forget him, ; f?he niust forget him!'
And his lips, dared not pronounce what his
heart added: 'She must, for all my power
would not be proof against her tears!' ,
Thonex day, at the review, the. caar,
whose eagle ey embraced all with a glance
sought and saw among the battalicni only
the green plume and black horse.., II re
cognised in him who wore the ne and
was mounted on the other, a simple Bav
arian, colonel of light horse, Maximilian
Joseph Eugene A.uguste Buauharnais, Due
de Lcuchtenberg,.the last child of the son
of Josephine, the Empress of France; and
of Auguste Amelie, the daughter of Max
imiljan Joseph ot Bavia, an admirable and
charming cavalier, indeed, but as inferior
in rank to Marie Nicoloewna as a soldier
to an emperor , ,.:,; ,,,t? ;
'Is it possible.?"' asked the czai of him
self, ! summoning the' colonel, doubtless
with the intention of sending him to Mu
nich.. 1 . ' ' .'. , : v
But at the moment he was about to crush
him with a word, he stopped short at sight
of his daughter, swooning in the carriage.
There is no room for doubt; alasl it is
he,' thought he. ' '
And tuining away from the astonished
stranger, he returned' with Marie to the
impeal palace. 1 "' ' '
During six weeks, all that wisdom, tem
pered with love and severity, could devise,
was assayed to destroy the image af the
colonel in the' heart of the princess. At
the end of the first r week, the latter was
resigned; at the end of the second, she
jrept in private; at the end of the third,
she wept in public; at the end of the .fifth,
she fell 6ick; at the' end of the sixth, she
was about to die. '' ' v ; , " . f
Meanwhile the Bavarian colonel, seeing
himself in disgrace at the court of his host.
without daring to acknowledge to himself
the reason, waited only a dismisssal to re
turn to his regiment. He was about to set
out for Munich, . when un aid-dv-camp of.
tne czar came w seen mm. j t , ; .
. 'I should have started ,ye$terday!' faid
he to ;himself; 'I should have.. avoided,
what now awaits me. At the first flsb of
lightning we should keep out pf the way
of the thunder. ' " , . ;. j ,is . . '
Now this was the thnuder in s tore for
him. lie was introduced into the cabinet
reseived for the reception of kings.. .The
emperor was there, with fpale complex
ion and moist eye, but with firm and re
solute air. ' ' ' , ,.. "
Colonel,' said he, casting upba him t
penetrating glance 'you. are one of the fi-
nest officers in Europe. It is said pf yotf,
and I believe it, that yon have a lofty spir
it,' a learned education, a lively taste for
the arts, a noble heart and a loyal c
acter. ' "What do' you think of the'gi
duchess, my daughter, Marie Nicolo?wna?'
This direct question bewildered he
. 1 i t . 4 T j , ,
y Ouna man. It is time to sat that be ad
mired, adored the princess, without baring
dared to acknowledge it to himself;' as a
simple mortal adores an angel of Paradise
aian artist adores his ideal of beauty.
The Princess Marie, sire?' exclaimed
he, at last reading bis owa heart; without
daring to read that of the' ozai? "your an
ger would crush trie if I should say'whaf I
think, nd I should die of hvippfnesl if you
would allow me to say iuT ' .

'You love her! it is well,' resumed the
czar, smi?ing benevolently,
And the royal hand from which be ex
pected the thunderbolt, successively con
ferred on the colonel the brevets of the
aid-de-camp general of the,' empire, presi
dent of the Academy of Arts, etc., all
with the title of imperial highness and sev
eral millions of revenue. ' ' ' ' '
'Now,' said the czar to the young' man,
who was beside himself with joy, 'will you
quit the service of Bavaria and become
the husband of the Princess Marie? .
' The officer could only fall on his knees
and bathe the"'hands of the emperor with
his tears. '
'You see that I also love my daughter,'
said the father, raising his son-in-law h
his arms. ... . , .
On the 14th of July following; the grand
duchess was restored to health and to life,
and the Duke ' Beauharnais de Leuchtcn
berg espoused her in the presence of the
representatives of all the royal families of
Europo. p;i ' , ':. : U '' . V " :
Such an act of parental love roeiited
to the czar and his daughter an ' age of
happiness.! .Heaven, which has its secrets,
had deoreed otheiwise. On' Friday; tie
5th of November last, the Duke do Leuch
teriberg died at thirty five,' worthy to the
last of his high destiny, leaving to Marie

A good thing occurred, however, a few
days since, with the keeper of a small
'large beer,' saloon, who undertook , to
teach his assistant, a thick-headed sprout
of 'Faderland,' the difference between 'five
pence' and 'six pence.'
' 'You see, John, de piece mit de vomans

'Yah!' said John, with a dull twinkle of
intelligence.,
A wag of a loafer, who overheard the
lecture, immediately conceived the idea of
a 'saw' and 'lager beer' gratis, for that
day at least. Procuring a three-cent
piece, he .watched the departure of the
'boss.' and going up to John, he called fof
a nvig of beer, throwing down the coin,
and looking as if l.e expected his change.

called, one of whom was a very talkative

woman at once entered into conversation
