The dear, good woman had often wished for one, and as he had several of these flowers I thought he would sell me one. A charitable Frenchman had given me a few paras to buy some tobacco, so I resolved to give up smoking for some time ; I own it was a sacrifice, as I had no comfort but my pipe ; he, however, was in want of money, and he took my paras in exchange for a Rose of Jericho, and this is it. I placed it in wator on Christmas-eve, to see if I should be released from prison. The flower bl...oomed favourably, and I was ran- somed shortly after. " Karl then ventured to ask for what sum he would part with it. " Part with it !" said the infuriated Hungarian, with THE CHEISTMAS ROSE. an oath. "Does this little white-faced youth imagine that for filthy lucre I should dispose of this holy amulet that has preserved me in safety in so many battles ? No, no ! Don't ask me again. " Early on the morning of the 14th of August there were some slight skirmishes, then the French attacked the whole line, and the combat became general and severe.
