At sight of the naked flesh into which he was to cut, Gerard started as if from a heavy sleep, and his limbs trembled till the scafâ€" fold shook under, him, and tin-. broad-bladed sword tell from his hand. The varlet picked up the weapon and gave it back to his master,who clutched it convulsively. whilst the red rod of the superin- tending official gave the signal to strike. But Gerard neither sawl the rod nor heard the voice of its bearer. Already a murmur arose amongst the crowd. ‘Quick, masw tor! quick !’ said the vat-let, whose car caught the ill-omcned sound. Summoning all the strength and courage his recent suffering hadg left him, Gerard raised the sword,l impending steel, uttered a lament, able yell. No more was wanting to upset Gcrard’s resolntim‘i and presence of mind. They left him on the inseam; his arms lost their strength, and he let the sword fall on irlci‘idrik’s shoulder, but St) feebly that it did not cycn wound him.

I“: e Her brother Franz stood beside her, in holiday suit, his broad-leafed Spanish but upon his head, and his brown cloak over his shoulder. according to the fashion of the time. Lina had represented to him, in livelv colors, the frightful danger incurred by Gerard; and he, with his usual rough good- heartedness, swore to break the neck-of the first man who threw a stone at the new headsman. 'it was late, and the shades of evening fell upon the earth, be- fore the exccutioncr’s varlcts com- pleted the necessary arrangements on the scaffold. At the moment theSe terminated, :1 Cart pierced the. throng amidst general stir and hum of curiosity. The criminal. attired in a black linen gown, sat with a priest in the binder part of the vehicle. Gerard was on the foremost bench, his bright sword in his hand, and one of his assist.- ants beside him. None could do- vine, from his countenance, what rvpassed in his mind; his features were ï¬xed and rigid; his eyes, bent upon the ground, avoided the people’s gaze; and but for the weapon he bore, none could have told which of the two, he or Hen- drik, was the condemned mainâ€"â€" Unconscious 0! his own movements, he .asceudcd the scaffold, so eon- fused in spirit that he saw nothing, not even Lina, although Franz several times made signs to catch his attention. And new the variets have removed the prisoner from the cart to the scaffold ; but he pre- tended he had not ï¬nished his confession, which he wished now, for the first time, to make full and complete, seeing all chance of a pardon gone. Perhaps he nour- ished a vague hope of escape in the darkness; for heavy clouds drifted across the sky, and night approached so rapidly that already those upon the outskirts of the crewd could scarcely distinguish what passed upon the scaffold. So And seeing that Lina obeyed that the People. fearing that the his directions and led away Gerard. increasing darkness would deprive them altogether of the show they coveted, began to clamor loudly for the execution of the sct’itencc.

At thismornent ofconfusion, when scarcely any one knew what, his neighbour did, a man ascendedl the scaffold, and approached the exeâ€" cutioner. It was Franz. ‘Gerard,’ he said, ‘ Lina con- jures you, in God’s name, and by your love for her, to speak to her for one moment.

Lina and Gerard disappeared amongst the trees. l‘lis susl‘ncions continued by this mysterious conduct, the rufiiari, blaspiicming with exultationi and fury. rushed upon the lovers; and, tearing off Gcrard’s cloak, behold the headsman’s livery.â€" 'l‘heroupon, without word or ques-i tion, he lifted a heavy cudgel. and struck the poor fellow violently upon the head. Gerard fell sense- less to the ground. The murderer would have repeated his blow, but Lina with the courage of a lioness‘ l defending her young, grappled him vigorously, and clasping her arms round his, impeded his further movements. The sight of her lover, stunned and bleeding at her feet, seemed to give her superhu- man strength; and bctliinking her that it was better to have one enemy to contend with than a hundred, she abstained from calling out, lost her cries should bring foes in- stead of frtenils. Fortunately the uproar of the mob drowned the iu'iprccations of Gerard’s assailant, who vociferatcd horrible curses as he strove, with brutal violence to shake off the heroic girl. At the very moment when, her last strength CXllttt.lSlt3(l,'Sl)C was about to succumb, Franz entered the corpse, and, seeing Gerard motion- less on the ground, and his sister: struggling with a stranger, immedi- ately guessed what had 0c inrrcd.â€"~ A cry of rage burst from his lips, and before Lina remarked his presâ€" ence, his powerful hands were upon the shoulders of her antagonist, who lay the next instant upon the grass at his feet. ‘Linal’ cried Franz.

' Leaving the . mob to their bloody ,work, Franz returned to his sis- ed, the trio crept stealtlniy from the copse, and safely reached the town, where Gerard concealed himself during the evening in the house of his mistress. Witch midnight came, and the streets of Antwerp were deserted, he betook himself, ao- companicd by Franz, to his own dwelling, and made his unexpected appearance in his father’s chamber. The old headsman. who lay broad awake upon his bed of sickness, weeping bitterly, and de- ploring the death of his unhappy son. deemed himself the sport of a deceitful vision when he saw dead man approach his couch.â€" But when convinced, by Gerald’s voice and affectionate embrace, that he indeed beheld his child in solid flesh and bone, his joy knew no bounds, and fur a moment in- spired the young man with fears of his immediate dissolution. 'My son, my senl’ he cried, ‘you know not half yourgood fortune. Not only have you mir- aculously escaped a cruel death, but you are also delivered from the horrible employment which has been mine, and was to be yours.â€" The accursed obligation that weigh- ed upon our race ceases with life, and you, my son, are deadl’ ‘And pure from the stain of blood !’ joyfully, exclaimed Gerard. ‘ Begone,’ continued the old man, ‘ and dwell far from thine unjust brethren. Quit Antwerp, marry thy Lina, be faithful and kind to her, and heaven bless thee in thy posterity! Thy sons will not be born to wield the axe, nor wilt thou weep over them as l have wept over thee.
