Ere morning I was raving with brain fever, and for six long weeks I hovered on the confines of the spirit world, When reason again resumed her sway I asked of him—my husband. My heart went out to him with a passionate yearning that looked beyond bis false and falseness. Trey placed in my hands a letter, written inanswer to mine. He wrote as if his heart was broken. He said he would rush into battle, and sell his life fighting for his country; for, having lost my love, he had nothing for which tolive. I felt as I read that I had been too harsh, Perhaps, after all, Helene had forged all those cunning lies.

It went down the class until it came to a simple urchin who said: “perhaps it be @ flea,” / at the head of ber Amazons, participated and laughed at the stories which I. in many of the most fiercely-contested actions of the siege.” William of Orange sent from Leyden @ force to relieve the place. It was attacked by the Spaniards and routed, A large number of prisoners were taken, who were immediately sent to adorn the gibbets, which were already conspicuously erected for the purpose in the Spanish camp. Among the victims was an officer named Van Trier, for whom the Dutch offered a large ransom and nineteen Spanish prisoners, This offer was refused, and Van Trier was hanged upon . the gallows by one leg until he was dead. In return for this courtesey the nineteen Spaniards weré immediately gibbeted. As fast as the Spanish cannon batter. ed down the walls, theinhabitants, men, women and children, brought bags ef sand, blocks of stone, loads of earth, and statuesof saints from the Catholic Churches, and threw them by heaps into the gaps. Atilengthan assault was ordered. The population swarmed the walls to assist the feeble garrison. Rocks, live coals, boiling pitch, were hurled upon the Spaniards. Hooks smeared with pitch and set on fire were , flung flaming over their necks. The bee siegers retreated with great loss, while only three or four of the Dutch were killed. William of Orange sent another force to relieve the town. It was likewise routed. De Koning, the second in cam+ mand, was taken prisoner. The Spans iards chopped off his head, and threw it over the walls into the city with this inscription: ‘ This is the head of Captain:De Koning, who is.on his way with reinforcements for the good city of Harlem,” the citizens retorted by cutting of . eleven Spanish heads, barreling them up. and throwidg them into the Spanish © Camp with an equally pointed inscription, Such ghastly practical jests were of daily occurence. Failing, after repeated attemps to take the town by assault, the Spanjards resolved to reduce ‘it by famioe.— The sufferings of the inhabitants. were terrible. They subsisted on cats, rats and mice; boiled hides and shoe leather; nettles and grass from graves. Men women and children fell dead in the streets, July 12,1673, the place surrendered. Having promised mercy to the citizens, the Spaniards entered. The promise was kept with true Spanish faith. A frightful massacre, which was not confined to the garrison, but extended to the citizens also, We need not dweld upon the details of the butchery.
