from darntcy amtl chapter i patient wmrsttt madam and pardon in j sjiafeake ashe spolce the loud neighing of the strangers horse announced the approach of some of his fourfooted fraternity and oorrtbc the cottagedoor the old man irtcked forth to ascertain if his apprehen sions were just the cloud however was cleared on ins brow in a moment by the appearance of the person who rode into the garden joysood wife joy cried the old man it is sir cesar it is sir cesar we are safe enough now sir cjsar cried the traveller that is a strange name 1 aud ho turned to the cottage door to examine the person that ap proached cantering through the garden on a milk white palfrey adorned with black leather trapping appeared a little old man dressed in singular but elegant habiliments his doublet was of black velvet his hose of crimson stuff and his boots of buff his cioak was black like his coatbut lined with rich miniver fur of which also was his bon- uet he wore no armsexcept asmall dag ger the steel hilt of which glittered in his girdle and to turn and guide his palfrey- he made use of neither spur uor rein hut seemed more to direct and urge him with a peeled osier slick with which he every dow and then touched the animal on either ear his person was as singular as his dress extremely diminutive in stature his limbs appeared well formed and even graceful he was not a dwarf but still considerably below the middle size and though not misshapen in body his face had that de gree of prominence and his eye that keen vivacious sparkle generally discovered in the deformed in complexion he was swarthy to excess while his long black hair slightly mingled with gray escaped from under his bonnet and fell upon bis shoulders still the most remarkable fea ture was his eye which though sunk deep in his head had a quickness and a fire that contradicted the caiiu piaciu expression ui the rest of his countenance and seemed to indicate a restless busy spirit for glancing rapidly from object to object it rest3iot a moment upon any one thing but ap peared to collect the information it sought with the quickness of lightning and then fly off to something new in this manner he approached the cot tage his look at first rapidly running over the figures of the two cottagers and their guest but then turning to their faces his eye might be seen scanning every feature and seeming to extract their meaning in au iostant as in the summer we see the bee darting iuto every flower and drawing forth their virtues while it scarcely pauses to fold its wings it seemed as if the face was to him a book where each liuo was written with some tale or some informa tion but in a character so legible and a language so well known that a moment sufficed him for the perusal of the whole at the cottage door the palfrey stopped of itself aod slipping down out of the sad dle with extraordinary activity the old gen tleman stood before the traveller and his hosts with that sort of sharp sudden motion that startles although expected the old mao and his wife received their new guest with reverence almost approaching to awe but before noticing them farther than v fetgtitu thiut aiii ll turned directly towards the traveller and doffing his cap of miniver he made him a profound bow while his long hair parted from the crowo foil over bis face and al most concealed it sir osborne mau rice said he well met the traveller bowed in some surprise to in himself recognised ly the singular per son who addressed faim truly sir ho answered you have rightly falieo upon the name i bear and seem to know me well though in truth i can boast no such knowledge in regard to yon to my re membrance this is the first time we have met 44 within the last thousand years replied the old man we have met more than a thousaud times but i remember you weif before that when you commanded a ro man cohort in the fine punic war 44 hes mad thought the traveller 41 profoundly iusaoe and be turned an en quiring glance to the cottager and bis wife but far from showing any surprise they stood regarding their strange visiter with makl of deep awe aod respect however the traveller at length replied memory with mo is a more treacherous guardiau of the past but may i cravo the name of so ancient an acquaintance 44 in britain answered the old man 4 they call me sir cesar in spain don cesario and in padua simply cesario il dotto what cried sir osborne the fa mous 41 ay ay interrupted the old man famous if it may so be called but do nore of that fame is but like a billow o a sandy shore that when the tide is in it seems a mighty thing and wheu tis out tis nothing if i have learned nought be side i have learned to despise fame that your learning mu9t have taught you far more needs no farther proof than your knowledge of a stranger that you ne ver saw at least with human eyes said sir osborne and in truth this your knowledge makes me a believer in that art which hitherto i had held as empti ness accustomed to command there seating traveller as his guest aod demanding of the old couple a supply of those things he deemed necessary set downthe salt in the middle richard hartley now bring the bread take the bacon from the pot dame aud if there be a pompion yet not mouldy put it pown to roast in the ashes whet sir osboros dagger richard is u alldouo then sit with us for litrcin are men all alike now tell me richard hart ley while wc cat what has happened to thee this morning for i learn thou hast been in jeopardy thus speaking he carved the bacon with bis dagger and distributed to everyone their portion while sir osborne maurice looked on not a little interested id the scene one of the most curious parts of which was the profound taciturnity that had succeeded to garrulity in the two old cotta gers aod the promptitude and attention with which they executed all their guests commands tho old gentlemans question seemed to untie richard hartleys lips and he com municated in a somewhat circumlocutory phrase that though he had built his house and enclosed his garden on common land which as he took it was free to every one yet within the last year sir payan wileton had demanded for it a rent of two fy ifwelry watches c rt jot to mr jvatkns hardtoart ft fore in the shop latly occupied by itm sttnnett he subscriber most respectfully informs his friends in town and
