A;v a pair of ticry eyes, full of soul and enthu siasm. ills dress consisted of a black frock eoat, breeches ol the same color, silk stockings, ami neatly polished shoes with silver buckles. A white lace neck cloth and embroidered wristbands and trill, completed the elegant costume that showed the graceful figure of the young man to the best advantage. One saw at a glace that the room was the abode of an artist, who worshiped at the shrine of the goddess of music, for oil one side stood a spinnet, near which a bass viol leaned against the wall, while on a chair that stood before a desk lay a violin, which the young man seemed to have just been using, for he still held the how m his hand. On a table near a w in dow, there was a pile of sheet music, together w ith sundry pieces of paper on which were written legions of those little black-headed characters that to the initia ted -peak a language of sweet sounds. The delicate matures of the young man were, at this moment, suffused with crim son lie rail his lingers repeatedly through his curly, carefully dressed locks, regard less of the havoc he played with his artis tic t'/upel, ami tlipn he would flourish the bow in his hand, as though it were a sword with which he would drive away some phantom that refused to give him a moment's peace. Finally lie stopped in the middle of the room. ‘•1 must, 1 must, he cried, “and that to-day, too! 1 can endure this suspense no longer; 1 must know my fate; but this uncertainty, this continual wavering lie tween hope and fear, is a thousand times more terrible than the certainty that she does not love me. Love me? Why should she not? 1 am young, and more than one have told me that l am not ill favored. My name is already and favorably known in Vienna, and I feel that the stuff is in me to make for myself a reputation that shall extend to other lands. I am an ar tist. and the harriers do not exist tor me that surround the privileged classes. She has read in my eyes that I love her, in the crimson of my cheek when she approach es me, so beautiful and lovely that my heart beats only for her; and yet she has done nothing—nothing to repulse me. She seemed einbarassed—she too, blushed when my trembling hand assisted her in finding the right string, and at the same time entered a gentle pressure upon her delicate lingers. What can this mean, if it be not that her heart is agitated by a feel ing akin to the one that thrills mine at such moments? Courage, Johann, courage! It shall not be said that the greatest happi ness on earth was within your grasp and volt let it pass because you had not the courage to reach after it. This very day 1 will confess to her my love, and then—’’ A small clock on the mantel interrupted the young man's soliloquy by striking three. “Three o'clock." he cried, draw ing his watch from his fob; “it i~ time 1 must be on my way. In an hour 1 shall know what the luturc has till now concealed with an impenetrable veil. Sophie, my beloved Sophie!” 1 he last worus died hi a sigh. 1 lie young man laid down the bow, stepped before the mirror arid arraigned liis hair and frills, and then setting bis hat on liis handsome head, left the room. llut it is time that the young man wHom we have described should be introduced to the reader. We have already said that it was evident from the appearance of the room that the occupant was a musician; and that he was, too, a genuine musician, known to-day wherever the arts ars culti vated. llis name was Johann Straus-. Juhanu Strauss was born in lxn-4 at Vi enna. llis parents who were in indigent circumstances, apprenticed him to a book binder named Fitchtsclieidel, hut nature had not intended the boy fora simple mechanic.. Thu genius of musie animated liis entire being, and lie was as skillful and liiligent in learning to play the violin as he was awkward and indolent in learn ing a trade. As early as in his fifteenth year he composed some waltzes and other pieces, which discovered unmistakably his extraordinary talent for dancing music. His calling had long since been his aver sion musie was everything to the bov, ami to its cultivation he devoted liis en tire energies. Fortunately his luusieial talent was recognized by I.aimer, who, at that time, was a leader of considerable repute, and lie took the youth into liis or chestra, where, as early as 1820 he played the second violin. I'nder the direction of I.auner, the mu sical talent of young Strauss was more and more developed, and it was not long until he felt capable of wielding the baton himself. At first, in 1824, he undertook the direction of the ball music in a (at that time) popular place of amusement called the ••Hotel zuui Bock,” and soon afterward, having organized an excellent orchestra, he played alternately at Vienna and the environs of the city, always elicit ing the enthusiastic approbation of the pleasure-loving Viennese, with whom lie soon became the decided favorite, llis popularity was not confined to any class i.l society, and the etuhusistie admirers of liis compositions rarely called him by other cognomen than the waltz king. Among other instruments, Strauss played the harp with the skill of a master. At that time this now neglected instrument was as popular with the American ladies as the piano or citheron is to-day, and the reputation of the youthful artist secured him an invitation to the house of the Countess C-, w here he was solicited to instruct the eldest daughter, Countess Sophie. Strauss acceded to the proposi tion, and the lessons began, but, with the progress that the youthful countess made under the direction of her skillful master, a liking sprung up in his heart for his fair pupil, which daily increased, until lie de cided tu tell her the secret of his heart, and to ask her love in return. We have overheard the young man's so liloquy. in which he decided to risk every thing in order to escape the tortures of suspense; we will now follow him to a large palatial house, over the door of which, cut in stone, but half obliterated by time, there is the eoat-of-arms ot a noble family, while before it walks proudly to and fro a tall, bearded Swiss, in rich liv ery, wearing a three-cornered hat, and carrying a staff. At sight of Strauss, the Cerberus raised his hat, and bowed with a friendly smile. Strauss returned the salutation in a not less friendly manner, and hurried up to the second story, where a servant led him into a small lint elegant saloon, and hastened to announce his arrival. A richly ornamented harp and music desk stood near one of the windows. Strauss approached the latter, and, with an apparently indifferent air, turned over the sheets of music, but his hand trembled, and be threw more than one hasty glance at the door where his pupil was expected to enter. Presently, the door opened, and followed by her caiupunion, the Countess Sophie entered the room, bowing to her profes sor with a lriendly but somewhat conde scending air. The youthful countess was beautiful— very beautiful. A tall. Juno-like figure, features of great regularity, a complexion faultlessly clear, a wealth of dark hair that fell in luxuriant tresses over her shoulders, and large expressive eyes, formed a magnificent whole. She carried her head high, and slightly thrown back, a sure indication of pride, which, more over, was evinced by every movement of the girl, and which Strauss only, in his in fatuation, failed to see. She was ynly seventeen yearsold, an age when most girls retain something of the ways and manners of childhood. Not so, however, with this girl. There was noth ing about her that reminded one of the child. She was a full grown woman, and her whole hearing showed that she was not only conscious that she was beautiful, but also that she was a countess. Poor Strauss! lie saw only her beauty— to him she seemed an angel descended from a brighter world. He read love in her graceful smile, which was intended for the master not the man, who, as a nurgher, she never dreamed could raise his eyes to her. Strauss bowed respectfully, and per haps somewhat awkwardly, in response to the young girl's salutation; the lady companion seated herself in an arm chair and soon became absorbed in a book, and the lesson began. I he artist struggled hard to conceal his agitation: hut, in spite of his best endeav ors, his hand trembled, and his voice was husky and constrained. The unwonted mood of the teacher seemed to have attracted the attention of the pupil; for, from time to time, she glanced at the burning face ot the young man, whose eyes seemed to meet hers with a peculiar expression. At this moment a servant entered, and whispered a few words to tho companion, whereupon she rose, and, w ith the words “l!y your leave, Sophie,” left the room. Strauss was now alone with the countess. ‘•Heaven is propitious,” said he to him self, overjoyed, “Now or never!” He grasped her hand, pressed it to his burn ing lips, and fell on one knee before her. •‘Countess Sophie,” he whispered, fix ing his eyes on the face of the astonished girl, do not be angry with mo for falling thus at your feet. Do not drive me from you, for 1 love you—love you with my whole, my entire being. On, speak one word, give me some sign that you do not disdain the love 1 could conceal irom you no longer!” The countess, surprised by this sudden outburst, did not seem at the moment to grasp its import; but when she did, she j rose proudly, withdrew her hand and said in a haughty, disdainful tone, her eyes dashing with indignation “Sir, you forget where you are. Rise —you are not in your place.” ••Oh, let me remain here at your feet, Sophie!” stammered Strauss, wjio mis construed the agitation of the countess, i "Let me hear the word from your lips that shall make my earthly happiness complete!’ “What impudence!” exclaimed the countess, “Rise, sir! Your place is be i fore the door. How dare you raise your eyes to me? Where is your eoat-of-arms where your patent of nobility 1—love— you—1? You cannot be in your right mind, sir, or you would not forget that I j am Countess Sophie C-, and that j’ou I are—musician ith these seorntul wonts, the promt girl left the room. Half hewildered, the unfortunate Strauss rose to his feet. His face was deathly pale, and his colorless lips whispered only ‘•A musician,” she said, “a musician!” Then, like one intoxicated, he seized his hat and hurried out of the house with out noticing the countess’s companion, who met him, and asked why the lesson had ended so soon, or replying to the sal utation of the giant Swiss who guarded the door. How he got home, Strauss never knew; he saw nothing and heeded nothing but the scornful words of the countess. He was a prey to deep, burning grief and shame lie had been wounded in what is man’s most vulnerable point; and, after t lirowing off his hat, coat, neckcloth and everything that confined his chest, he strode up and down his apartment in a state that fell little short of frenzv. “Oh, they have no heart," ho cried, “these high born women! Where others have a heart, they carry an old, worm eat en parchment, a patent ot nobility, that they think makes them better than other people. What care they for love, fidelity, nobility of soul? To them the name, a coat-ot-anns, and a long line of ancestors, is every thing. A musician am 1—a mu sician! Ana so I am; but my beauteous countess, the musician will live in the memory and affections of his l'cllow-men when your name and your coat-of-arms will have long been forgotten." Little by little, he became more calm,

B. Bell of this city, a true statement ot his ease. He ha* not been j very well at any time since his return from Washington, and had in August last an attack j similar to the present, which consists chiefly in an inability of the stomach to retain any hut the j simplest nourishment, and also to ri«e without nausea, combined of course with more or less general debility. He has been much better several times, when slight errors ot diet have produced a temporary aggravation. He is now steadily improving, hut forbidden by his pliisieian to engage himself with abators or correspondence, or anything that can aggra vate the gastric disturbance. He will doubt less be fully well in a few weeks under this treatment. Next Monday we are to have through r. il road connection w ith Bangor by means of the narrow gauge, an event which every business man will rejoice over, and which will add greatly to the comfort and convenience of the travelling public. Section men were scut yesterday to Kendall'© Mills to commence the work of connecting the two lines, fin Satur day night next after the hut broad gauge train paases over the road, a large crew ot woikim n will be put on the fifty miles from Kendall’s Mills to Bangor, and the work ot chunging tire gauge from broad to narrow w ill be prose cuted with vigor through Saturday night and Sunday, until the track is ready lor the first train Monday morning, lour or five men will be put on to each mile. The spikes have all been driven on the inside of the track, so that the change can be made very rapidly. Tour engines heve been ‘‘narrowed up" in Portland, ready to take their places upon the road, and three new engines which have been contracted for will soon be along. The new luggage t*ar building in this city, designed for the through train, will probably be ready on Saturday. The section men are all und» r orders for Saturday night, and we may rea sonably hope to sec the first through train pass on Monday. In court yesterday, No. 154. Jordan and als. vs. Taylor, was finished in the forenoon l»v a verdict for the defendant. No. 223, Jacob Bradley vs. Town of Bead field, was then opened to the jury. The ac tion is brought to recover for a personal in jury to the plaintiff occasioned by being thrown out of his wagon by an alleged defect in the highway. The town in defence denit that there was any such defect in the road as to render them liable. They also contend that the injury to the plaintiff was not so se rious as he represents, and that he is suffering from disease which existed prior to the acci dent. Kemp ton for ptf.
