THE CHILDREN OF EDWARD. TRANSLATED FROM THE F11ENCII. During the Jays of June, 1843, on a splendid morning, when the sun shone forth in all his brilliancy, a barge, richly decorated, emblazoned with the arms of England, and half enclosed by large silken hangings, 6lowly descended the course of the Thames. After having passed, amid the acclamtions of the people crowded on the banks of the river, the distance be tween Westminster and the Tower of Lon don, the yacht stopped near that State Prison; and its curtains being opened, two individuals, whose stations one would, divine from the splendor of their habits, and the respect which surrounded them, lannded and ascended the steps which led to the entrance of the Tower. Equal in rank, the noble personages of fered in their appearance a perfect con trast; and no one, to see them, would have suspected they were of the same race, and the same blood coursed through their veins. The oldest had seen about thirty-five years; magnificent vestments poorly concealed the deformity of his un gnieet'ul form; his physiognomy jMi.ssessed at iirst sh;ht the appearance of loyalty and freedom, but if one examined atten tively his fixed feature?, his dull and un certain air, his thin lips strangely pressed toivilier. manifested dissimulation and cruelty, and the smile, which at times an imated h;s countenance, showed but a passing benevolence. On the contrary, the younger of the two, who was still a child, displayed in all his actions his goodness of heart; his easy carriage was full of a rare elegance; the" flowing locks of his light hair covered his shoulders, and at sight of him one telt attracted towards him by the strongest sympathies; one loved at once his youth and his beauty, where shone with a pure joy the noble qualities of the heart. At their approach the doors of the Tower opened, the archers who filled the ante room ranged themselves with respect, and the governor after having humbly saluted them, guided them through numerous and dark passages. They crossed many courts, ascended to one of tlpj higher t.to ries, and finally passed into a vast saloon, where largo s;ntl te a -y bars of iron, aiyj thick d.x'is, tokens of captivity, v.vre hid deii under the luxury of decoration. Wh :i they entered, a youth of about twelve year?, who, sitting near a high arched window, viewed with a melancholy air the waters of the Thames, in which the sun traced diincing ornaments of gold arose precipitately, and advancing toward the two noble vi.-itors, pressed the younger in his arms, exclaiming "liiehard! dear Kit-hard! my dear, dear brother. I again see you, then." During some moment their sighs and. tears alone expressed their cniotio i. Fi nally conquering his grief, the young prisoner turned himself towards the only witness of this scene, and said to him, with n calm dignity superior to his age VMy lord, you have given me my broth er, but however consoling may be his pres ence, if he should become, like myself, a captive in thfe Tower, I should regret hav ing again seen him." "You a prisoner!" said lie who was ad dressed, with an air of hypocritical mild ness, "dear nephew, can yon harbor these unworthy supicions, and ought the king of England to doubt that I have no other rule of conduct than the promotion of his interest J" These were the last words that liiehard of Gloucester addressed to his nephews, Edwanl V., King of England, already confined a month in the Tower, and Kich ard Duke of York, whom he liad just car ried off from the widow of Edward IV., in order to remain sole master of the lives of the legitimate heirs of the Eng lish crown. In going out, Gloucester threw on the children a subtle and malig nant glance; and finding in the ante chamber of the apartment the governor, Clakenbury. "Forget not to execute faithfully all the commands you may receive from me," said he, "and I will not be ungrateful." Ou the bauk of the Thames, Kichard, lord Protector of England, filled with a joy he in vaiu endeavored to conceal, at the easy success of his designs, stepped into the royal yacht which attended him, and repaired to the parliament. As ooii as they were alone, the two brothers Edwanl and Richard, again em braced. More than a mouth had they been separated, and their tenderness could only be satisfied by these sweet caresses. Finally they questioned each other, and whatever might be the experience of Ed wanl, he could not doubt the fatal future which awaited them. To the joyous re partees of the hoping Richard, he sadly replied "It would be much better to prepare for death, for I think but a short time re mains for us on earth.". In fact for what could they hope? At the death of their father, Edward IV the Duke of Gloucester had, at first, ex pressed for his royal nephew a sincere af fection and devotion. He had himself conducted him to London; and barehead ed by his side, out of respect to the su perior rank of his nephew, had shown him to the citizens, who received him with enthusiastic acclamations. At the same time, however, he separated the prince from his most faithful servant, whom lie caused to be arrested and put to death; he Lad removed him from his mother, and for a month the Prince had been re tained in the Tower of London, where no one was allowed to approach him. Now, Richard was equally ia Gloucester's ow er. Audacity sarhcod fo put him in os session of a crown which he had coveted so long and so earnestly; it was known that he shrunk from no ototacle, that he was by no means one of those "who let i" dart not wait .upon irould. In the meanwhile Richard TcreMtl to Li V?-tlii the caresses of their uncle, the respect which he had shown them, the protection of their mother, who would not abandon them, and who would never had confided them to Gloucester, had she doubted his loyalty; and at this remembrance their hearts were moved. "Reassurd thyself, Edward. I hav a presentiment that the day of thy corona tion lingers not, and hoUl! to-day even, in going out from Westminster in travers ing London, I have seen preparations for rejoicings. It is for thee, I am certain; and if our uncle has brought me hither, it is in order that I may assist at thy cor onation, as thy brother should." They were amusing themselves from day to day with these gay hopes, when suddenly London rang with the sound of bells, the noise of cannon awoke the si lent echoes of the Tower, and in the dis tance were heard the joyous acclamations of the people. "Said I not so, Edward? Is it not thy coronation they announce? To-morrow wc shall enter Westminster in triumph. Long live Edward the Fifth!" continued the young prince, approaching the win dow with his brother. 'Love live King Richard the Third!" replied the people, whose mighty voice drowned the noise of the Thames, and the solemn sounds that filled the uir. "lleai est thou that, Richard? hearest thou that? It is not my name that th people proclaim." And he strove to climb up to the window, the better to understand the words that were shouted by the crowd. "Long live King Richard the Third ! Glory and long life to Richard the Third!" Night enveloped with its thick pall the city of London; heavy clouds, through which distant lightning occasionally flash ed in silence, gathered over the city; the air was oppresivc, and charged with those sulphureous vapors which announce the tempest. The waves of the Thames, dash ing against the walls of the tower, and on its banks, alone interrupted the profound but terrible calm which reigned in the obscuritj-. It was August, and two months had the children of Edward the Fourth been ap parently forgotten by King Richard the Third. After a day passed, as usual, without novelty, night had surpiised the two princes, still conversing of their moth er, and of the happiest days of their child hood. Richard still hoped; his gayety, his ignorance of care, resisted captivity; but Edward, tormented bv incessant ter rors, partook not of the confidence of his brother, and it was a melancholy specta cle to see this child, subdued by misfort une?, and pressed down by disquietude, involuntarily bow his pale face, id lan guish. Exhausted by tiie extiema heat of this day, they had thrown themselves on the couch, and slept in each other's arms. As they thus reposed, they appeared to wisli to protect each other. K side them was a crucifix, which attested that before retiring they had engaged in devotions. A book of pravers, richly ornamented in the style of the manuscripts of that pciiotl, lay lialt open near them. I hey reiMise.d, and the lamp that each evening was light ed in the chamber, threw but a few fee ble beams upon the hangings of their bed. Ihev slept; and, doubtless, Heaven, to calm tho fears which pursued them dur ing the day, had sent them pleasant dreams; they, pernaps, again were enjoy ing the time when, free and happy, the nobility of England, Gloucester at their head, bowed before their childhood; they once more traversed tho great park of Windsor, where tiiey had essayed their first steps. Edward heard the joyous cries that welcomed him at his entrance into London, when, covered by the loyal man tle, he had received the homage of the lord inavor. the aldermen andtuo citizens who pressed around him; he smiled at the past, aud the present was lorgolten. At this moment tho door of their cham ber opened softly, and two men, entering with precaution, approached their bed. At the sight or such calm and youtn'itl innocence they hesitated; oneof them for cibly thrust back tho poignant which he had drawn, and tlicy conteinptaieu in sil ence that sweet slumber. Finally, after a moment's hesitation, he who had nt first been affected by the touching picture, re gained his bloody resolution, aud said in a whisper "Come, wc must finish; Richard wishes it, and thou knowest, Forest, none can re sist him." "What! hast thou the courajp, Tyrrel? Darcst thou strike?" "Can I brave the anger of the king?" "Hut this blood, Tyrrel, this blood. It is that of Edward the Fourth they are the nephews of Richard. And if h should repent" "What matters it! He commands, I obey." And he seized his dagger, but bis f rmnesH again gave way. The storm wliich had long threatened, now announced itself by a thunder crash. The brothers were awakened, and sur prised, they viewed the assassins. Edward saw the danger. "Ah ! my brother," said he to Richard, "they come to kill us.r' The oignard of Tyrrel glanced on the breast of the duke of York; as he died, Edward, pushing back the arm of tha murderer, said "Why do you kill my brother? Take my life, and iet him live." "Oh! no, no more blood; let me not liuir ilioir erii9." wild I v exclaimed Tvrrei. nn,l m,w ft ni'dowhe tried to extm- ,:u tri,!!- ;ti, i: whole strength, he succeeded, and their inanimate bodies remained upon the bed. Then the mighty sound of thunder, and the rain, which beat the windows with vi olence, alone disturbed the silence of that chamber of death. The children of Ed waid were dead, and the house of York stained with its blood for th last time, the red rose, the symbol of so many civil wars. A Novel Home for the Aged. From one of our foreign exchanges we learn that a member of the French Society for the Protection of Animals, in his de sire to defend his dumb friends, has es tablished a retreat for quadrupeds suffer ing from the inevitable iutirinities of ad vanced age. Among his pensioners there is a cow of thirty-six years, a mule which has exceeded the Psalmist's limit of man's life, a goat with eighteen years on its back, a goose in its thirty-eighth year, and a number of elderly or aged animals, whose days are rendered as comfortable as the generosity of their kind but eccen tric benefactor can possibly make them. The feathered tribe are also allowed to partake of the hospitality of the asylum, if they can establish their riirht to do so by an authentic certidente of age. Among the inmates we find a goldfinch long past its twenty-ninth birth-day, and a sparrow three years its senior. A register of the age, etc., of the pensioners is kept, w hich visitors are always invited to examine. LE.VDVILI.E. From Our On a CvriYspoadeut. Leadville, May 27, 187tf. Dear Herald: The tide of huma nity stiil continues to flow toward Leadville, although there are fewer people here to-day than there have been at any time during this year. .This is accounted for by two reasons; viz: a goodly number have gone home, but the greater number have started for the tiL.w mining camps, Kokomo and Carbonateville, in the ten mile district, and for the Gunnison country. I may safely say that thousands have gone and are on the way for these new camps and the. excitement in re gard to tho Gunnison country still continues, in fact has just begun. Iu my next I will endeavor to give you a ehort description of these places. The best paying mines around Lead ville lie upon the, four hills or moun tains, called Trytr, Carbonate, Iron, and the Long and Deny. Th -'se hills stretch in a line along the eastern lim its of the town for a distance of about six miles. Th.? principal and best pav ing claims upon Trycr Hill are The Little Pittsburg, New Discovery, Lit tle Chiefj Dives, Chrysolite, Carbonif erous, Vulture, Eaton, Fairview and Pandora. The lirst four belong to the Consolidated . ining Company of which Messrs. Chaffee and Tabor are the principal partners. Tho last six be.oMg to Messrs. Borden, Tabor & Co. There are numerous other good claims on Tryer Hill, but those already named are the most valuable and best knows, because they are the best worked. There are scores of other mines I could mention besides those named above which are "showig up big" among them the Tende-y mine, but it is tin nesessarv, as those mentioned above are but fair specimens of others aud only better known because of being found earlier and more tuoroughlj de veloped. In my last I spoke of Leadville be ing so quiet aud orderly, but judging from the change that came over the camp ft nd continued for about two weeks, the head lino in the Daily Chron icle "J It'll Let Loose" ju t about ex pressed the condition of tilings here. Crime rtigned rampant. There seem ed to Le a sudden influx cf btug trs, pickpockets and foot pads, men werej knocked down and robbed, or ordered to "hold up your hands" on the princi pal streets at all hours of the night, and not for one night only but for a number, till it began to bo dangerous to be out on the street after night at all, for each man considered t .e ether a rascal and were prepared for the least suspicious move. Pick pot k ts plied their vocation boldly, every hour of the day and night in all public pla ces, aad were even robbed while wait ing their turn at the Post office window. The police force was increased, and things seemed to be on the mend fora few days, until the latter part of last weekwhen complaints of robbery and violence beg in to be heard, and Sunday night it culminated in an attempt to blow up a negro shanty and saloon on .tate street with Giant Powder, where by several inmates were badly scared and had a uarrow escape with their lives. District Court, wliich had been in session here adjourned last Saturday. The suits brought by the St. Louis Smelting and Refining Co., for the ejectment of squatters on the ground covered by placer mining patents weie transferred to tho United States Cir cuit Court. These suits in the aggre gate amount to a great deal as the placet pitents cover over 600 acres, mostly covered with cabins, from which the company .are seeking to ejct the occupants or else get pay for t In land, claiming it by right of the said piac-r patents, i ne squatters claim that the company-has no ri-rht or title in the land excepting in the minerals that m iv bo found therein and the surface ground necessary to devuh-p or mine said min rals success: u 1 liotli sides seem sanguine ot success. although the squatters claim that the transfer mentioned above is a point in their favor, in fet they claim that it is tantamount to a decision in their favor. Day before yesterday was Sunday, but it could never be realized from the appearance of our streets. For, with possibly few exceptions, every business house is kept open and as many or more goods sold that day as any day in the week. The auctioneer is crying otT his goods, the streets are crowded with teams loading and unloading goods, the beet gardens and saloons are in full blast; the theatres have special ties for that day ; the dance halls and eamblinir dens are crowded and have their harvest on Saturday night and Sunday; grand balls at the Amphithe atre are advertised by counties "dodg ers" for Sunday night, foot-racing. horse racir.g, target shooting, billiard matches, dog fights, and kindred sporU are indulged in unbhishinglv, indeed such reckless and thorough desecration iif the Sabbath was never seen, except possibly in some other mining towr. Religious services are held here (f ( course, but when you consider that in a town of over 1.3,000 inhabitants the: e is, in all the buildings used for public worship, room for possibly a thousand persons, you cease to wonder that the observance of the Sabl ath is so small. Improvements are still going on, but jiot with the rush and vigor of a month ago. Then tho city had uOO men and a largo number of teams at work im proving the streets, but they were all discharged and for a while compara tively nothing was done, but now they put on a small force, possibly 15 or 20 men. Building which was rushing here for a while is kind of slack, as there are plenty of houses for rent at reduced figures. The machinery of the Chronicle of fice is now run by water power, they having put in a No. 6 Tuerk water mo tor, of three hot si power, which w; b necessary to enable them to get off their rapidly increasing circulation. They have also enlarged the size of their daily to meet the demands made upon it. Business of all kinds is beginning to show the effects of being overdone, in the reduced prices of goods, ami the falling off of trade, and doubtless ma ny small dealers w ho rushed in here early thts spring and recklessly irtvest ! ed their all in a stock of goods, expect j ing to realize a handsome profit there from will become bankrupt. The price of every staple ai tide has teen mate ' riully reduced since my last letter (caused by the reduction ih freight. and the number now in competition in all lines of business. The forest around Lc-p.dvillt has been on fire for over a week, and hun dreds of cabins, belonging mostly to wood choppers, prospectors and char coal burners have been destroyed, and the majority besides losing their cab ins and contents lost the result of their labor for the past two months render ing hundreds absolutely penniless. Saturday it seemed as if the city of Leadville must go as the wind rose and blew tho flames directly toward the town, and cabin in the outskirts begau to catch and burn ; excitement was intense and the Mayor issued a proclamation calling on every able bo died citizen to place themselves under the orders of the fire department. Just at night, when there seemed no pos sible hope of saving the town, tho wind died down and all was well. If it had not been for that where the city of Leadville now stands would be a heap of smoking ruins. In the day time nothing can be seen but heavy lurid clouds of smoke but at night the scene on t lie mountain tcp is both grand and terrible. Last night we had a slight fall of sno w and tho ground was covered to tho depth of tin inch and over. In my last I forgot to mention John Marshall.- as being among the residents of Leadville. lie is now over in the Gunnison country, where ha is, I be lieve, engaged in the restaurant busi ness. Mr. John Dons, prop, of the Platte Valley House, spent a few days here viewing the sights and looking for a business location. He leit without concluding any definite arrangements, but his son will undoubtedly leave your tow in a few days. Jas. Shelcross, one of the B. . M. beys is here, and has a hole iB the ground, which promises to pan out well. But enough for the present. W. B. S. The Library 3Iagazine.

But it seems they knew their ground, they have not only fulfilled their promise to the public, but by undertaking and ac complishing something so extraordina ry, have attracted the attention of al most the entire reading community, to themselves :ind their various literary enterprises, ahd have secured a sale for the work itself beyond precedent in the history of bookselling, and so great that it is really remunerative.

If lovers of flower" only knew how eas ily the fragrant white water-lily, Nymph cm odorata, could be cultivated, we are quite sure these lilV-s would be grown far more than other less fragrant and beauti ful flowers that take more time and trou ble to cultivate- These lilies once planted in a pond or small sneam (they will bloom more profusely in t-halimv water) that does not entirely dry up iu snium -r, will need no further care, and will i.icrea,o from year to year. People who have not tfie facilities "lor grim ing thein in ponds and streams can have their lily gardens in tubs and aqu-triums, v!nre they can ad mire and gather the aiwt fragrant and beautiful llowc-r that grows on land or water. In Tubs. For a tub take a strong bar rel, free from tar. oil, or salt: saw it in two; till this one-third full with fino black garden &oil, or meadow mud if handy; plant the roots in this niixtuie, covering them two inches deep; add water gently so as not to disturb the roots, until the tub is full. This is the only care needed always keep the tub full of water. Set this on a brick or board platform in any place you desire. The tubs with their contents should be placed in a cellar dur ing the winter, kept from frost, aud not allowed to entirely dry up. For Ponds and Streams. Tie a stone fln tr tl,e roats. liirfe enouirh to sink it; I drop this into the pond or stream where i you wish them to grow. 1 or Aquariums. rut iu ue imoh j 'i fine black loam, coter the root3 one inch deep in this, and sift on tine saud enough to entirely cover the loam.

Th': celebrated French chemist, JL Boussingault, has ieei i.tly inve t:gated the ir.ture of the change- which bread un dergoes when it becomes. "bile.
