Beyond all other mountains of the Bloshorg range, the wild solitude of | Hartz have been, from time immem- rial, supposed to be the haunts of ghosts, elfinsand spectres. The inhabi- tants of this neighborhood are, for the most part, miners and woodsmen, and are naturally imbued with the locas superstition. . On many occa- siens they have attributed to the power of the elfins those natural phenomena which they have experienced during there subterranean labors. The belief also prevails that atutelary demon, of a appearance, dwells in the gloomy forests of the Hartz, colcssal t, and his head appears crown- ed with oak leaves; about his body there is bound a fie hand he carries an uprooted pine tree Long ago this demon used to hold frequent communication with the peo- | ple in that district; he used often to meddle in thelr affairs, rather for the the purpose of doing them good than of u?,u\.m., them.

He soon crossed the: stream, climbed the hill, and approached suf- ficiently near this elfin gathering to discern all _the peculiarities of the denttn of the Hartz. For the first time in his life he shuddered with fear; but summoning up_ininediately his wavering courage, he advanced firmly toward the fire. At each step he took the figures became more wild and extrayagant in their movements: They received him with nanifestations of applau: aug] “Who are a_ voice of gloomil fartin Waldecl & ot k, a charcoal burn- “and who are you replied the spectre; ! « dared to penetrate our mysteri T came here to get a fire-brand, in srder to light my fire,” Waldeck an- swered, boldly. ~ **What aro the mys- terles whieh you celebrate here? e of Hernnes and the hut take the fire-brand 1, and depart, for no mortal can witness our festivities with Martin then stuc lance in a large log, hut, amid the noise of t hter of the phantoms.

As threo y charcoal-burners— who had taken a part in the pursuit of the priest—were returning home to their cottage, the conversation natur. ally tarned fipon the demon of the Hartz and on their pastor’s sernion. Max and George Walderk, agreeing that the prieat’s language was indis creet, maintain vertheless, that it was very dang to have the slightest communication with the de- mon, because ke was wicked, capri- cious and powerful, and all those who had any communication with him al- ways experienced misfortune. from it.

But these proofs and many others, which George and Max related of the evil consequences attendant on tho Martin Waldeok. Martin was ung, daring and rash, and similed at the tumidity of his brothers. Cease, the demeon liv on 3 & good and kind one. He among us as a simple pes squents the rocks and mg sometimes as a hu and other times shepherd. But how ean this de. o w0 malicioits s yousay? What power tan he have over mortals, who ake use of his gifts without submit- ting themselyes to his will? The ben- cfits and gifts of t it of the Harts oantiot injure us, it is the bad use which we make of them that does?” ax replied that riches badly ac quired, could never benofit their pos- sehsor. Martin declared, positively, that the prsecssion of all the treasures in the Hartz mountains would not be capable of effecting the least change in his habits, manners or his char- acter. This conversation Inated wotl Hhe nefghborhood of Brockenberg. They then, according to custom, arranged the watches for the night; for one of the brothers kept guard while the two others slopt. In faet, the Wening 1f the ehareoal required continual atten- tion. Max Waldeck, the e'dest brother. had watched about an hour. when he saw, suddenly, upon the borders of the swamp epposite ¢ the ddr uF his cottage, an immenss fire, around which numerous fignres danced in the Jmost grotesque attitudes. Max's first thought was to call George, bat he could not awaken him without * | Martin hearing. S0, wpen reflection in spite of the torror - with which this singalar phantom filled him, he resolved to watch alone. Besides, the strange fire was gradually disap- pearing, and he was then quite free from fear. George did not_delay in relieving Max, who retired to bed without saying auything. Tho vast fire again filled the valley, and_the same phan- toms surrounded and danced through | flames. George was more courageous than Max, and resolved to -cross the stream which separated him from the marsh. Climbing up an emincnce, he approached near to where the fire was burning. Ameng the elfins that bustled about the flames, he recog- nized the giant, covered with hair and armed with a pine tree; in a word, was the demon of the Hartz, such as the old shepherds had described to him. > Trembling with fear he commenced reciting the psalm commencing with. “Let all the angels praise thee, () Lord!" which was looked on, in that country, as a sovereign preservative against the influence of spirits. He turned his eyes again toward where the fire had been burning, but all had dua[\pennd. The valley was no longer illmninated, but by the pale rays of the moon, George, in great terror, directed his course to the place of this extraordinary scene, but he found no trace of fire on the heath; neither the moss nor wild flowers were scorched or faded—the branches of the cak which had appearcd enyel- oped in flames were wet with the night dew. Georgereturned tothe hut, and reasoning the same way as Max, re- solved to say nothing of what he had seen, as he feared to awaken the curi- osity of Martin The night was far advanced when Martin’s watch came on, and when well awake his first care was to examine the furnace. He saw, to his great astonishment, that George had not attended to it, and -that-the was out—we know already why. Ve much annoyed he set about lighting it, but it was useless. It became serious, for the poor fellows risked the loss of their market next day. Morti- fied by this accident, Martin had just decided to awaken his brothers, when ¢ suddenly crossed the windows of the cottage. His first idea was that the Muhelor- hausers, the rivals of trade, had cn- croached upon his boundaries, and had come to steal his wood. But a moment's observation-was sufficient to convince hini that the spectacle which was presented to his view was a super- natural phenomen. “Be _these men or. said, “F will go and ask | gifts of the elfin, made o, iupression | he said, ‘1! this folly; | ' | pired, and alrea ekt grined at this. ‘The fire_still burned ou the hill, but those who had sur- d it had disappeared.

He had not gone far when he heard the the elfin crying aloud to hin, not on any ut to have the temer ity so venturs back g The ef which Mattin made to light his fur- nace with his last fire-brand was just as useless as the proceding. Exhaust- od with fatigue he threw himself on his bed of leaves, fully determined to inform his brothers the next day his strange adventure Morning had _scarcely appe: when he was_awakened from found sleep by Joud eries of joy and surprise. The first thing which Max and ¢ did on rising, was to look at the condition of tlieir furnace. While raking thié ¢inders, they found ihree metallic lumps, they knew to be pure guld.” Their joy was a little diminished, lowever,” when Martin told them by what means he had becomo master of it. The others could not resist fhe temy of partakiug of the prosperity « brother. Martin Waldeck soon took the title of the family. He bought nd woods, and Tiad a fine man- voice o n war enabled him to brave, v which his courag, at all tim sudden elevatic of his mauners, excited. But the evil inclinations which poverty had re- ressed, tow developed fhemeelves.

Waldeck defonded himself to denpera: condemned,, by the jndge o the teirnty, 1 fiave, according to custom, his right arm cut off, to lose his tities s nolility, aud to be driven ignomin- iously from the city. They despoiled him of his armor, and having under- gone his punishment, he was delivered up to the populance, whe piirsited him, aping mennoed, diitragés and insults on his devoted h Tt was with the est difticulty that the brothers ald drag him forth from_the hands of the moby th¢y flad left him for dead. He lost 50 much ‘blood, and was in such a miserable condition, that it was necessary to place himt in a cart, and wnder hii_they pit some straw. Thus the Waldecks fled. Searcely had they reached thie fron- tiers of their wative Country, when they perceived in a hollow road, situa- ted between two mountains, an old man. who advanced to meet the But shortly after the limbs and size of this man in in bulk, his cloak foll from his shonlders, and his pi grint's staff was metamorphosed into an enormous pine. In a word, the demon of the Hartz was presented to their eyes in all hia irwh(l\ll Apparel. When he was opposite to the cart in which the sick man lay he asked hini, with an_atrocious smile, if his fire-brands had kindled his furnace. Martin was indignant at these words, but could scarcely raise himself. He pointed “toward the spectre with a menacing gesture; but he disappeared, uttering a loud, mocking laugh, leay- ing the nnfortunate Waldeck tostruggle with death, Max and Geoarge, being terrified, dirccted their course towards the powers of a neighboring convent, which elevated their tops above the dark fine forest by - which thay were surrounded. At that place they were charitably received by a monk, with a long, venerable beard, and in naked feet. Martin lived _just long enough to make a confession of his life, and to :hueeire absolution I:mm the hands of e very priest. whom, lon; , he had M.J with stones in the vl of Margenbrodt. _ His" three ycars of prosperity mysteriously corresponded with the three visits which he had made to the elfin’s hill. The body of Waldeck was interred within the convent, and his two brothers assumed the habit of the order. ‘Both ‘the miners - and the woodsmen shun, even o this day, the ruins of the Chateau de Waldeck, for they suppose thet it has become the resort of elfins and evil spirits.
