The Bridal Eve.

A STORY OF THE REVOLUTION ARY WAR.

One summer night the blaze of many lights streaming l'rom the windows of an old mansion, perched among the rocks and woods, ilashdd far over the dark waters of Lake Champlaln.

In a quiet and comfortable chamber of that mansion, a party of British officers, sitting around a taDle spread with viands, discussed a topic of some interest, if it was not the most important in the world, while the trade of the dancers shook the lioor of the adjoining room.

Yes, while all is gayety and dance and music in the largest hall of the old mansion, whose hundred lights glanced far over the dark waters of the Champlain—here in this quiet room, with the cool evening breeze blowing in their faces through the opened windows, here this partv of British officers had assembled to cfiscnss their favorite topic.

That topic was—the comparative beauty of the women of the world. As for me," said a handsome young ensign, "I will match the voluptuous forms and dark eyes of Italy against the beauties of all the world

And I," said a bronzed old veteran, who had risen to the colonelcy by his long sorvlce and hard fighting "and I have a pretty lass of a daughter there in Kngland, whose blue eyes and flaxen hair would shame your tragic beauties of Italy into very ugliness."

I have served in India, as you all must know," said the Major, who sat next to tho veteran, "and I never saw painting or statue, much less living woman, half so lovely as some of those Hindoo maidens,bending down with water lilies in their hands bending down by tho light of torches, over the dark waves of tho (ianges."

And thus, one after another, ensign, colonel and major, had given their opinion. The last was a captain, who wore a handsome scarlet coat, glittering epaulettes, lace ruffles on his bosom and around his wrists.

Como, captain," shouted the ensign "decide this great question. Which are the most beautiful—the rei cheeks of England, the dark eyes of Italy, or the graceful forms of Ilmdooatan?"

The captain hesitated for a moment, and replied: Mold your throe models of beauty— your English lass, your Italian queen, your Hindoo nymph—into one, and add to their charms a thousand graces of color and form and features, and I would not compare this perfection of loveliness for a single moment with the wild and artless beauty of—an American girl."

The laugh of the three officers, for a moment, drowned the echo of the dance in tho next rooim

Compare his American milkmaid with tho woman of Italy Or the lass of England "Or the graceful Hindoo girl!

This laughitur scorn of tho officers *tung the handsome captain to the quicK.

Hark yo!" he cried, half rising from his seat, with a (lushed brow, but a deep and del1 berate voice: "To-mor-row I marry a wife an American girl! To-night,"at midnight, too, that American girl will join the dance In tho next rooiu. You shall see bar—you shall judgofor yourselves whether the American woman is not the most beautiful in the world I"

We havo heard somp.thing of your marriage, captain," said the gay ensign, "but wo did not think it would occur so suddenly. Only think of It! To-mor-row yon*will bo gone—settled—verdict brought in—sontenc

passed—a married

man! Hut, tell me? How will your lady-love bo brought to this house tonight? I thought she resided within the rebel lines?" "She does reside there. But I have sent a messenger—a friendly Indian chief, on whom I can place the Ktmost dependence—to bring her from her present houie, at dead of night, through the forest to this mansion. He is to return by twolve it is now half-past eleven

Friendly Indian!" ©eho«d the veteran colonel "rather an odd guardian for a pretty woman." "And vou will match this lady against all the world for V*auty," said the major.

Yes, and if yon do not agree with me, this hundred guineas which I lay upon tho table shall serve onr mew fbr a month to come. But If yon do acrw) with me—as without doubt you willthen you are to replace this gold with a hundred guineas of your own."

Agreed It Is a wager!" chorused the colone' and the two other officers. And in that moineut—while tho doorway was thronged with fWr ladies and gay offlcors, attracted from the next room by the debate—as the captain stood, with one hand resting on tho little pile of gold, hi* ruddv ft»e grew suddenly pale as a shroud, his blue eyes dilated, nntil they were encircled by a line of white enamel he remained standing there as if ftoren to stone

Why, captain, what is the matter?" cried the colonel, starting up In alarm: "do yon see a ghost, that yo« stand there gazing at the blank wall

The other officers also started up in nlarm also asked the cause of tbliudngnlar demeanor, bat still, fbr the «p«ce |Of a minute or mora, the oaplain stood v~ jp

thore more like a dead man suddenly .recalled to life than a living being. That moment pasaed, he eat down with a oold shiver made a strong effort as if to command hla reason and then gave utterance to a (breed laugh. "Ha. ha! see how I've frightened you!" he said—and then laughed that oold, unnatural, hollow laugh again.

But now he turned from one comrade to another, uttering some forced jest, or looking toward the doorway, crowded by officers and ladies, he gayly invited them to share in this remarkable argument. Which were the most beautiful women in the world? oa

As he spoke, the hour struck. Twelve o'clock was there, and with it a footstep, and thfen a bold Indian form came surging through the crowd of ladies thronging yonder floorway.

Silently, his arms folded on hla war blanket, a look of calm stoicism on his dusky brow, the Indian advanced along the room, and stood at the head of the table. There was uo lady with him

Where is she?" at last gasped the captain. "She has not refused to come? Tell me—has any accident befallen her by the way I know the forest is dark, and the wild path most difficult—tell me, where is the lady for whom I sent you into the rebel lines?"

For a moment, as the strange horror of that lover's face was before him, the Indian was silent. Then as his answer seemed trembling on his lips, tho ladies in yonder doorway, the officers from the ball room, and the party round the table formed a group around the two central figure—the Indian, standing at the head of the table, his arms folded in his war blanket—that young officer, half rising from his seat, his lips parted, his face ashy, his hands resting on the dark mahogany of tho table.

The Indian answered by au action, »ksn by a word First the action: Slowly drawing his hand Ir. his war blanket, ke held it in the light. That right hand clenched with blood-stained fingers, a bleeding scalp, and long and glossy locks of beautiful dark hair!

Then the word: "Young warrior sent the red man for the stallp of the pale faced squaw! Here it is!"

Yes—the rude savage had mistaken his message! Instead of bringing the bride to her lover's arms, he had gene on his way, determined to bring the scalp of the victim to the grasp of her pale face enemy.

Not even a groan disturbed the silence of that awful moment. Look there! The lover rises, presses that long hair— so black, so glassy, so beautiful—to his heart, and then, as though a huge weight, falling on his brain, had crushed him, fell with one dead sound on the hard floor.

He lay there—stiff and pale, and cold his clenched right hand still clutching the bloody scalp, and the long dark hair falling in glossy tresses over the flOOr. 1.

This was his bridal eve! •.? »•. When the bridegroom, flung thore on the floor, with the bloody scalp and long dark tresses in his hands, arose again to the terrible consciousness ol life, these words trembled from his lips, in a faint and husky whisper

Do you remember "now, half an hour ago—I stood thero—by the table— silent, and pale—and horror strickenwhile you all started up around me, asking me what a horria sight I saw Then, oh, then, I beheld the horrid scene—that home, yonder by the Hudson river, mounting to Heaven In the smoke aiid flames! The red forms of Indians going to and fro, amid flame and smoke—torch and tomahawk in hand. Thore, amid dead bodies and smoking embers, I beheld her form— my bride—for whom I had sent the messenger—kneeling, pleading for mercy, even as tho tomahawk crushed into her brain!"

Asthe horrid picture again came o'er his mind, he sunk senseless again, still clutching that terrible memorial—the bloody scalp and long black hair!

HERE'S PAPA!"

A young single gentleman in Leavenworth (says the St. Louis Republican) lately blushed and hung his head in church. He was sitting at his devotions while the service was in progress, very meek and mild. A little 4-year-old girl, with a tongue in her head, spying him. broke away from lior preoccupied mother, ran down the ailse, and sprang into the young man's arms, exclaiming, "O. mamma, here's papa!" in so gleeful and ringinga voico that the whole church full of people were startled. The mother and child were both well-known to many present, tho former as a dashing widow, and the latter as an honest child of a dead father. It was further known that the young man had been paying ardent attentions to the widow. The devotional exercises were stopped perforce, and the congregation Indulged in a burst of laughter, which sounded foreign to tho place. Tho young man's devotion was knockod out of him, and he left the sanctuary in confusion. That sort of a demonstration cannot fall to bring the pending matrimonial matter to a speedy crisis. Tho little girl evidently knew her own future father.
