IT is barely possible that some citizens of the republic who are now voting as well as their fairer contemporaries at present restrained from that manly ex- ercise may not have read the numbers of the Atlantic Monthly tbat were issued before they were born.
So they trembled to life, and doubtfully Feeling their way to my sense, sang- Say whether They sit all day neath the greenwood tree, The lover and loved, as it wont to be When we but grief conquered, and all together They swelled such weird murmur as haunts a shore Of some planet dispeopled, Nevermore!
Then from deep in the past, as seemed to me, The strings gathered sorrow and sang forsaken, One lover still waits neath the greenwood tree, But tis darkand they shuddered where lieth she, Dark and cold!
For ever must one be taken? But I groaned, 0, harp of all ruth bereft, This scripture is sadder,the other left! There murmured, as if one strove to speak, And tears came instead; then the sad tones wandered And faltered among the uncertain chords In a troubled doubt between sorrow and words; At last, with themselves, they questioned and pondered, Hereafter?
With hand on latch, a vision white Lingered, reluctant, and again Half doubting if she did aright; Soft as the dews that fell that night, She said, auf weder8ehem.
Sweet piece of bashful maiden art! Two watched yon orioles pendent dome That now is void, and dank with rain, And oneO, hope more frail than foam! The bird to his deserted home Sings not, We meet again I, The loath gate swings with rusty creak; Once, parting there, we played at pain; There came a parting, when the weak And fading lips essayed to speak Vainly, We meet again!

She bad long treasured the hope that her beautiful grand-daughter should be Queen of Sweden. A splendid hospitality awaited a royal traveller, and the princess, gifted with surpassing beauty and a charming wit, completely captured the heart of her youthful visitor.
The regent, al- though a friend neither to Catherine nor to Russia, found no fault with his enamored nephew, and the marriage contract was drawn up.
Evening came, and the imperial halls were ablaze with light and splendor. Where was Gustavus, the simple boy of eighteen, whom the wily Russian had led to the verge of the snare?
An in- nocent bride trembled at the thought of a faithless lover, when Gustavus, rust- ling in his wedding suit, demands to see the marriage contract.
It had been withheld from him under various ex- cuses. The young king demands at the last hour that it be produced, and lo! He sees himself about to be pledged to make war upon the French,he, the first ally of their republic; and what amazed him even more, he is to give his royal war- rant to the Greek faith of a Swedish queen.

A funeral pageant usurped the splendor of the wedding feast. Rage, mortified pride, unspeakable disappoint- ment reaped the whirlwind, and the sorrowing bridegroom had scarcely re- gained his home, before the heart of the mighty empress was still for ever.
Let us hasten to acquit Stedingk.
No hand of his had meddled in these sad nuptials. Special ambassadors had been their masters stewards; and we rend of Russian gold, of course, among the persuasive arts of this as of other pe- riods.
Stedingk had a far more difficult task. He was to allay the troubled waters. Success would have been later, had Catherine lived; but happily the new Emperor Paul was tractable. He loved Stedingk; his preux chevalier, as he always styled him. Reconciliation was not long delayed, and the young Gustavus was comforted with a fair- haired German bride, the most lovely queen, we are told, that had yet adorned the Swedish throne.
