THE KNIGHT OF THE SWAN. { Pranslated from German of Keifer for N.Y. Post.] The young Countess of Cleve was ary troubled and in great distress. One of her vassals, an audacious, insolent fellow, had not only preaumed to renounce his allegiance to her, but he had also made himself master of her cas- tle and her liberty ; nay, he even demanded her band, and therewith the dominion of her lands. She saw no means of saving herself from this rebellious subject ; for no knight of her land would dare to throw the glove in challenge to an antagonist, from whose skill in fighting, ec- losgal figure and strength, no happy result could be for. Without ceasing, the distressed bat devout woman add: her prayer to heaven, that a helper might appear to her in her trouble, and the heart of some good cham- pion be aroused to contend for her good cause, aud free her from the troublesome, importunate vassal Aceording to the tradition, it is said that there hung on her rosary a little silver pell, with the wonderful peculiarity that its gentle tone increased in power and sound in the dis- tance, but that in a particular direction bee and a remote king is said to have heard it like a call for help, and the summons to send up the Khine assistance for the oppressed innocent. This demand, arising, perhaps, from a ph tasm, the king considered an adventure for his only son, and it was embraced by him with that eagerness with which the noble knight of olden time seized every occasion to lend a protecting arm to the weaker, and especially to the women. A swan appeared on the waves of the stream ; it drew a boat by a golden chain, and, as if of- fering itself for use, halted at,the shore, whence the king’s son was looking wistfully into the mysterious distance. This appeared to the young man an evident sign and command of the higher powers to enter the bark, and scarcely was this done when the swan paddled swiftly up the Rhine and vanished from the sight of the king. At Cleve, in the meantime, the day had ar- rived which the rebel, now lord, had sppointed for his marriage to the countess, and she could not avoid this fate, unless some knight should present himself bold enough to challenge the villain to mortal combat. Just when she, full of anguish, was obliged to attire herself for the ceremony, and believed herself already lost, she! eheld from the windows of her high castle a swan towing a boat up the stream, in which lay a sleeping young knight. She immediately remembered that it had been prophesied to her by a pious nun, that a sleep- ing youth would sometime reseue her from great distress; and joyfully surprised, she was looking upon the wonder, when the beautiful stranger awoke, atepped on shore, and the swan immediately turning back, disappeared from her sight. The knight directed his steps to the castle, knelt on one knee to the countess, and permission to fight for her ssion. e maid giadly accepted his offer, and an appeal was made to the judgment of God, in the spacious court of the castle. Raging like a grim, wild boar, the vassal attacked the stran; champion. Many a sympathizing heart, friendly to the woman, might well beat with anxiety at this apparenly so unfortunate contest, in which it appeared inevitable that the youth, thongh adroit and valiant indeed. yet by no means equal in size to his powerful antagonist, must be overcome. But the righteous cause prevailed; severely smitten by the sharp sword of the brave youth, the offender sank down dead, and then, amid the loud rejoicing of the multitude, the vietor knelt before her he had so fortunately rescued. With looks of the most cordial love, she gavo him her thanks; but not with words alone did she reward the hero, for after a few weeks, the happy youth led the countess to the altar, to be united with herin the firm bonds of wedlock. No loving wife could easily be happier than the countess was with her husband, who re- quited ber fondness with the most sincere fidel- iy Unly one thing disturbed the bliss in the countess’s heart, namely, neither she nor any ene else knew from whence the knight came nad of what descent he was. Before they were united she was obliged to give him the most vacred assurance that she would never question him about his home and name. fur on this ques- tion—so he with full warning informed her— was linked his destiny, and should she ever make the inquiry he must leave her forever. The countess had made it a point to conform to his wishes, and years panel be witheut dis- turbance of her happiness, which was height- ened by the growing of three sous, who promised to be an honor to knighthood. But the more manly and strong the boys be- came, the more it pained the mother’s heart that they should not enjoy the ancestral name— the name of their father who was unboubtedly of high extraction. So once, when she could no louger resist the impulses of her heart, she im- plored her husband not to leave his sons longer without the paternal name—for the humblest one amongst the people inherits from his father— and not to wait till they should be looked upon and despised as bastards. He must, therefore, no longer conceal his name, and whence he came Wan and amazed he heard her words, and with painful emotion cried, ‘* Wo to thee, un- happy mother, what hast thoudone? The hai = of us all is destroyed by thy words! ‘rom this hour forth, must I leave thee and never return.’ Then he sounded his silver horn out on the waters, and it echoed far through the night. Behold! with the breaking morn, the swan appeared swimming on the waves, bat not bringing blessings as before. The hus- band, the father, stepped in the boat, before the eyes of the horror-stricken, stupefied countess, and the mighty swan went back from whence he caine, aud never more was seen. Death soon snatched away the forsaken wife in her sorrow, bat her sons became progenitors of noble lines, all of which to this day wear the swan upon their arms. eieeromeneaasrasegen ae aL Rarceyx or Miss May.—Miss Julidna May returns, we understand. on the first of Septem Ler, thus closing along novitiate of study which she has been pursuing in Europe. and coming home to commence, in her own native land, her professional career. As our readers are all f eecyomgr/ aware, from the frequent mention of ver in this and other journals, her natural gifts, as 2 concert singer and prima donna, are very uncommon. Her voice is an exceedingly fine ene in its b yr and of great compass, and the zeal and industry with which she has taken advantage of the “means and appliances” for its culture abroad. have been those of a verita- ble enthusiast nthe art. But the more special attraction which she will bring fur our Ameri- can public, is the elevation that will be given to the sentiment and expression of her music, by the charms of refinement and education. A daughter of one of the best educated and most intellectually high-toned families in our coun- try, she has all that can infuse soul and mean- ing into else mere normal or mechanical music and this, we venture to say, will be as great a difference us is made by the same elements in manner and charaeter. Miss May, in addition to these superiorities, is a young lady of most ie aces personal appearance, and, in fact, “é more of the materials of success than falls often to the lot of an artist in her profeasion.
