' BAGGAGE TRAIN. TIl TELL-TALE HEART. ' BY THE LATE EDGAR A. POE.

True I nervibus very, dreadfully nervious I had been and am : but will you say that I am mad ? The disease had sharpened my senses; not destroyed not dulled them. Above all was the sense ot neanng acute. I heard all thinsrs in the heaven and the earth, and many tilings in hell. How, then, am I mad ? ' Hark ! and observe how healthily, how calmly I can tell you the whole storv. , It is impossible to say how the idea first entered my brain; but once conceived, it haunted me day and night Object there was none. Passion there was : noue. I loved the old man. He never wronged me. He had never eiven me insult. For his gold I had no desire. I think it was his eye; yes, it was this! One of his eyes resembled that of a vulture ; a pale blue eve with film around it. Whenever it fell upon , me my blood ran cold; and so by degrees, very gradu ally. 1 made up my mind to take the lite ot the old man, and thus rid myself of the eye forever. ' Now this is the point. You fancy me mad. Mad men know nothing. But you should have seen me. You should have seen how wisely I proceeded ; with what dissimulation I went to work I I was never kind er to the old man than the whole week before I killed him. And every night, about midnight, I turned the latch of his door and opened it oh, so gently 1 And then, when I had made an opening sufficient for my head, I put in a dark lantern closed, all closed, so that no light shone out, and then 1 thrust in my head. Oh, you would have laughed to see how cunningly I thrust it in. I moved it slowly, very slowly, that I might not disturb the old man s sleep, it took me a whole hour to place my head within the opening so far that I could see as he lay upon his bed. Hal would a madman have been so wise as this ? And then, when my head well wasin the room, I undid the lantern cautiously oh, so cautiously 1 (for the hinges creaked) I undid it just so much that a single thin ray fell upon the vulture eye. And this I did for seven long nights every night just at midnight; but I found the eye closed, and so it was impossible to do the work; for it was not the old man that vexed me, but his Evil Eye. And every morning when the day broke I went boldly into . the chamber and spoke courageously to him, calling him by name in a hearty tone, and inquiring how he passed the night. So you see he would have been a very profound old man indeed to suspect that every night, just as the clock struck twelve, I looked in upon him while he slept. . ; Upon the eighth night I was more than usually cautious in opening the door. A watch's minute hand moves not more quickly than did mine. Never before . that night had I felt the extent of my own powers, of my sagacity. I could scarcely contain my feelings of triumph. To think that there I was, opening the door, little by little, and he not even to dream of my secret deeds and thoughts. I fairly chuckled at the idea; and perhaps he heard me, for he moved on the bed suddenly, as if startled. Now you may think that I drew back; but no. His room was as black as pitch with the . thick darkness; for the shutters were close fastened for fear of robberies, and so I knew that he could not see the opening of the door, and I kept pushing it on steadily, steadily. . I had my head in, and was about to open the lantern, when my thumb slipped upon the tin fastening, and the old man sprang up in bed, crying out "who's there?" ' I kept quite still and said nothing. For a whole hour I did not move a muscle, and in the meantime I I did not hear him lie down. He wastill sitting up in the bed listening just as I have done, night after . night, hearkening to the death-watches in the wall. ' ' Presently I heard a slight groan, and I know it was the groan of mortal terror. It was not a groan of pain or grief oh no! it was the low, stifled sound that arises from the bottom of the soul when overcharged with awe. I knew the sound well. Many a night, . just at midnight, when all the world slept, it has swelled up from my own bosom, deepening with its dreadful echo, the terrors that distracted me. I say I knew it welL I knew that he had been lying awake ever since the first slight noise, when he had turned in the bed. His fears had been ever since growing upon him. He had been trying to fancy them causeless, but could not. He had been saying to himself: "It is nothing but the wind in the chimney it is only a rat crossing the floor," or "it is merely a cricket which has made a single chirp." Yes, he had been trying to comfort himself with these suppositions; but he had found all in vain. Allinvain; because Death, in approaching him, had stalked with his black sliadow before him, and enveloped the victim. And it was the mournful influence of the unperceived shadow that caused him to feel although he neither saw nor heard to feel the presence of my head within the room. ' ' " ' When I had waited a long time, very patiently, and without hearing him lie down, I resolved to open a little a very, very little crevice in the lantern. So I opened it; you cannot imagine how stealthily until, at length, a single dim ray, like the thread of a spi der, snot out trom the crevice and icll upon the vulture eye. It was open wide open and I grew furious as I gazed upon it. I saw it with perfect distinctness all a dull blue, with a hidious veil over it that chilled the very marrow in my bones. But I could see nothing else of the old man's face or person; tor I had directed the ray, as if by instinct, precisely upon the damned spot. , And now, have I not told you that what you mistake for madness is but over acuteness of the sense ? Now, I say, there came to my care a low, dull, quick sound, such as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I knew that sound well, too. It increased my fury, as the beating of a drum stimulates the soldier into courage. But even yet I refrained and kept still. I hardly breathed. . I held the lantern motionless. I tried how steadily I could maintain the ray upon the eye. Meantime the hellish tattoo of the heart increased. It grew quicker and quicker, and louder and louder every instant. The old man's terror must have been extreme I It grew louder, I say louder every moment ! do you mark me well ! I have told you that I am nervous, so I am. And now at the dead hour of night, amid the dreadful silence of that old house, so strange a noise as this excited me to uncontrollable terror. Yet, for some minutes longer I refrained and stood still. But the beating grew louder and louder. I thought the heart must burst. And now a new anxiety seized me ; the sound would be heard by a neighbor I The old man's hour had come 1 With a loud yell, I threw open the lantern and leaped into the room. He shrieked once . once only. In an instant I dragged him to the floor, and pulled the heavy bed over him. I then smiled gaily to find the deed so far done. But many minutes the heart beat on with a muffled sound. This, however, did not vex me ; it would not he heard through the walL At length it ceased. The old man was dead. I removed the bed and examined the corpse. Yes, he was stone dead. I placed my hand upon the heart and held it there many minutes. There was jio pulsation. He was stone dead. His eye would trouble me no more. ! If you still think me mad, you will think so.no longer, when I describe the wise precautions I took lor the concealment of the body. The night waned, and I worked hastily, but in silenee. First of all I dismembered the corpse. , I cut off the head and the arms and the legs. I then took. up three planks from the flooring of the chamber, and deposited all between the whitings. I then replaced the boards so eleverly, so cunningly, that no human eye not even his--could have detected anything wrong. There was nothing to wash out no stain of any kind; no blood-spot whatever. I had been too wary for that. A tub had caught allha! ha! . When I had made an end of these labors it was four o'clock still dark as midnight As the bell sounded the hour, there came a knocking at the street door. I went down to open it with a light heart, for what had I now to fear? There entered three men, who introduced themselves, with perfect suavity, as officers of the police. A shriek had been heard by a neighbor during the night ; suspicions of foul play had been aroused ; information bad been lodged at the police office, and they, the officers had been deputed to search the premises. i : I smiled ; for what had I to fear ! I bade the gentleman welcome; The shriek, I said, was my own in a dream. The old man, I mentioned, was absent in the country. I took my visitors all over the houses I bade them search search well. I led them at length to his

chamber. I showed them his treasure, secure and un

disturbed. In the enthusiasm of my confidence, brought chairs into the room, and desired them to rest from their fatigues, while I myself, in the wild audacity of my perfect triumph, placed my own seat upon the very spot beneath which reposed the corpse oi the vie tim. The officers were satisfied. My manner had con vinced them. I was singularly at ease. They sat, and while I answered cheerily, they chatted of familiar things. But, ere long, 1 ielt myself getting pale and wished them gone. My head ached, and I tancied ringing in my ears, but still they set and still they chat ted, lhe ringing became more distinct it continued and became still more distinct ; I talked more freely to get rid of the feeling, but it continued and gained definitiveness until at length, I found that the noise was not within mv ears. No doubt I now grew very pale ; but I talked more fluently and with a heightened voice. Yet the sound increased and what could I do ? It was a low dull, quick sound much such a sound as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I gasped for breath, and yet the officers hear it not I talked more quickly more vehemently : but the noise steadily increased. arose and argued about trifles, in a high key and violent gesticulations ; oui uie noise sujauuy iiicreaseu, Oh God ! what could 1 do ! 1 foamed 1 raved . swore 1 I swung the chair upon which I had been sit ting, and grated it upon the boards but the noise arose over all and continually increased. It grew louder louder louder. And still the men chatted pleas antly and smiled. Was it possible they heard it not Almighty bod I no! no I ihey heard! they sus pected ! they knew ! they were making a mockery of mynorrori j.nisiinougnianaiiiisiininK. jauianything was more tolerable than derision 1 1 could bear those hypocritical smiles no longer !

KOBACK'S Itlood I'urifier and Blood Pills. DISEASE VANQUISHED Dr. Hoback's Scandinavian Remedies, By 63! Sc Itl mm AFTER YEARS OF STUDY AND EXPERIMENT, DR. ROBACK, the eminent Swedish Physician, succeeded in producinjr a medicine from twenty-three different mountain herbs of his nutive land, which acts directly upon the causes or disease in the blood, and by restoring the corrupted fountain of life, to a condition of health and purity, expels dis ease from the system, wherever it may be located, or whatever may be its character. Indigestion, nervous complaints, epileptic and other fits, coughs, consumption in its early stages, sore throat, bronchitis, fever and ague, asthma, low spirits, sexual incapacity, femenine weakness, pricking of the skin, symptomatic of paralys. rheumatism neuralgia, tumor, cancer, diabetes, lassitude and debility, diarrhea, and all other dis orders of the organs of respiration, the liver, the kidney, the stomach, the nerves, or the muscular fiber, are unerringly cured by this preparation. It is to the mat cries morbu or seeds of disease, what an alkali is to an acid : it neutralizes them with absolute certainty, while at the same time it regulates the secretions, removes obstructions from the bowels, creates appetite, renews bodily vigor, and regenerates every animal function. Such is the nature, such are the effects of Dr. Hoback's famous Scandinavian Blood Purifier, which, if taken in conJunction with his Scandinavian Blood Pills, will not only ob literate the most painful disease, but prevent their recurrence, and lengthen life bevond the ordinary span. In the SCANDINAVIAN VEGETABLE BLOOD PILLS, Dr. Robnck presents the result of over twenty years of experience, hard study and experiment as to whnt a perfect pill should be. No one can doubt their superiority after one single trial. Price of the Scandinavian Blood Purifier, $1 per bottle, or $5 per half dozen; Scandinavian Blood Pills, 25 cents per box, or five for 81 From the Rev. Mr. McMollkn, Pastor of Roberts Chapel : 1 Indianapolis, Oct. 5. 1857. Dr. Roback Dear Sir : I have used your Blood Purifier for a nervous a flection, from which I have suffered much at times.
