THE DAILl EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1867.
HOIt. RRS. mVERTOmOYE LETTERS.
frvft V y. Y. Herald.
No love letters in tbe world have ever caused
the name Beneation as the Yelverton oorreppii
dence; partly because they have been produced
during the lifetime of the writers; partly be
ause on those letters the Scotch lawyers
choose to think a marriage aid succession to
a peerage depended; partly because they
have been wore garbled, more misquoted,
more misrepresented, more quarrelled
ever bv counsel, more landed and dis
paraged by the precs, according to the ex
tracts they chanced to get hold of, more
gosfiiped over in private, more noticed in
pnblio than any documents on reoord written
m a delicate female hand. So faint, worn, and
tender now have the originals become from
the length of time they have been lodged as
records in Court, that many have had to be
framed to preserve their existence. For the
great Yelverton cause is not half over yet,
having only developed the British constitu
tional law so far as to prove that if a
man can construe it adroitly he can have
two legal wives in different parts of
' the same empire. Major Yelverton now
finds himself in that Morinonio position with
a Scotch wife and an Irish wife, both legal in
their respective countries, and it rumaius to
be seen whether or no he cannot take a third
in England. But to return to these ''poor little
letters," the outpouring of a girlish fancy,
which, matured by years, was to spell-biud the
world with int9rest and sympathy. These
letters won additional celebrity because Lord
.Westbury, known as one of the best classical
Scholars of our age, pronounced them the finest
epecimens of epistolary correspondence in the
whole range of literature, because a learuod
Scotch judge likened them in passionate ten
derness to the odes of Sappho, and one of the
most acute and profound lawyers on the bench,
Lord Deas, was so touched and overcome by
the pathetic heartcry ringing through some of
them that he was overcome with emotion in
Summing up, his handkerchief having to do
dnty in the middle of a sentence a sentence
never completed by him and he plunged into
dry legal argument to cover his retreat.
En tracts.
Caeo Cablo Mio: You can only write at night.
Is tbat the reason you write so eeldom? I can
write to sou any hour of the day or uight, uud
do not require either the silent night or the
Queeot darkness to ( lace me en rapport with
yon. It is my only pleasure now, and I labor
under the delusion peut-etre that it is one to jou.
Oh! 1 want jou so much to come. All nature is
so lovely that it 1b a tin not to rejoice with her
in her smiling new dress. The hills are white
With daisy and the valleys green with fresh
moes; the trees are all loaded with blossoms,
and the air is heavy with delicious odors; there
is a south wind breathing warmth and tolUoi?
me of you: all the little birdj are chorusing in
joyous melody existence is perfect bliss to
them. Two ol them are lovingly contemplating
constructing a little settlement near my window,
and there they are chattering and consulting
about it all day long. Doubtless they have no
uncle to prohibit their future visions ot happiness
in this liule mud wall. I wish I were a bird, to be
able to choose another bird, aud then sit in a
tree and be sung to. The sea Is as clear and
bripht as a mirror, or one's fixed dream of love;
and the porpoisc3 are splashing and rolling
about in the very height ot enjoyment. They
all fo swimming together, and do not condemn
ene to live solitary even in the loveliest sea
potto. The very insects go dancing and spark
ling in the sunshine. They seem in a perfect
ecBtacy of delight, and never know when to
fctop; their small humming makes an accomoa
nlmeut to nature's music. Beautiful little
flowers are clinging to and fraternizing with
grim old stones: clear, rippling water is whis
pering the sweetest things to loving, listening
thlzer but 1 alone: so you must come, and we'll
a-Majing po. Why should man alone be dis
cordant ? Why should he not enjoy the lovely
things of the earth like all other created crea
tures f Why should he forever toil and never
reap the fruit?
A chivalrous savase. Pray hear my dedni
tion of one. A man who has a sound mind aud
warm hearl, uucloudeil by sophism an t subtle
refinement, who sees (he naked truth by the
pure light God has given him. nor seeks to
pervert it by lalse logic aud time-serving philo
sophy; who Is bold, and brave, and gentle, and
kind, stooping on earth to none but the weak
and helpless; who knows no other bonds but
those ot honor and affection, the protector of
the lceble and the guardian ot justice and hon
esty; too noble lor a tyrant, too geuerous to be
seitisti; a man realizing the Intentions otti3'
creator ana wormy tne glorious, -cms be
stowed upon him. There ir ft nhioni
avape for you I
n is a good joke. I have
teen in love
i a one trom the age ot ten
"artr-JHTf 4,.-mArl mi Drat, (innpanlinn nf mi
man from Seott and Cowper. 1 need not
ay how mucn i nave naa to uniearo or inose
days; still, 1 think tbat over-reaoemcnt and the
conventional trammels of etiquette and over
scrupulousness check many a bright idea and
generons impulse, whilst I fear it is no preven
tative to secret evil, for, whilbt the outward
form is maintained with rigidity, the reality is
despised; so if you are a savage, so you shall
remain for me; 1 ask for no amendment, aud
accord to others the liberty I expect for myself.
Cabiesimo Cablo Mio Does that suit yon?
Pour dire la vertte, I cannot settle down to your
baptismals; William is out of the question 1
abound with brother Williams aud could never
leccgnize you under that title. Charles is un
jpeumieux; nevertheless it does not recall your
image image do I say ? I can't recollect your
appearance in tbe least; you are to me quite a
myth. I almost doubt I ever did see you; I
believe yon a fiction, a bright creation of my
coffee, a sort of sublunary spiritual creation;
yon are a jeu 'ortrf-I am always just on the
point ol catching hold of something tangible
abont you, hut you always slip away and leave
me disappointed. I know nothing about you,
not even what you arc like; you mUht be in dis
guise tbat well-known gentleman In black
wuose niemoranie wane arouuci tue world is so
celebrated, "to visit his snug little farm, the
eartn, and tee how his stock noes on." Now.
Iray don't be idle, but give me a proper account
nf jonrfclf; and if you feci luciineJ to sneer at
woman's curiosity, call to mind how long you
Knew me ere you brought me to a painful con-

rpprd to our not knowing each other, that
kniit unr.n a hvDGtbesis of mine (which I will
treat vou to) to be impossible. I consider that
mv uritinar to vouthis duv does not originate.
as might be supposed, from the
accidental cause of your once
fcavintr born on board a steamer wiih
jno, but from the natural cause and ett'ect of tho
influence of one person upon another. I have
been on steamer scores of times before aud
slice, and so have you: in my own case I cau
poeltiulj say without similur results, 0W to
make my Idea more comprehensible and mate
rial, suppose influence tn surround each ot us
as onr various fcrllnft and sentiments. When
two belts come in contact, each composed of
similar liiRredirnts, a sort of fusion takes place.
This is avmpathy. When most of the ingredi
ents correspond and the lusion becomes com
plete, it Is friendship. Am I intelligible? Ex
planation At tbia point the opposite counsel
declared the Utter perfectly unintelligible,
and it might be explaiaed. The prosalo
Knelith counsel for Mrs. Yclvrrton, birltoundell
Palmer, positively admitted his inability
to do so. "Then," said the Lord Chan
cellor, in hts precise, emphatic manner,
"Mr. Attorney-General, twenty years agu
you mipht have found out the elucidation of
that letter.) We miht have walked tho ship
all night and remained strangers, but acciden
tally putting my shawl on for me you must havo
had a touch, and small cause was siillicient to
produce this long etlcct. Now, 1 deduce from
this theory that, should we ever be shipped
together aaio, the fame natural result would
tnkc place ns ou board the steamer, eveu sup
posing that 1 had turned Depress and you into an
Arab; so that remembrance of personal appear
ance would bo at fault should we not recognize
each other by the remembrance of feeling. We
can distinguish the toues of one instrument from
another by sound only, and I am certain if we
meet again ou board ou a dark night I should
not know you; but if you hnve double on the
matter, you oufrht to have done what I asked
you in my lai-t letter but one; but you were un
kind and would not.
PorLoowE, Feb. 9, 185.ri. Caro Mio Carlo:
The letters from the camp arc pitiable; they
make me miserable. I cannot sleep for seeing
all the horrors belore me, and dream of nothing
but grape-Miot, round-shot, and projectiles of
every kind. Your quie. philosophical letter
did not convey to m the immensity of your
sufferings nd privations, and since we are de
prived the pleasure of alleviating them iu a
material way, it will be some comfort to you to
know that they will not be buried in oblivion.
The papers teem willi the miserable facts, and
the country is in an uproar about tho pruss
neglect end mismanagement. It may be some
consolation to you to know tbat you have the
deep, earnest sympathy of every true English
benrt : that there are thousands who, if indi
vidual exertion or sacrifice could redeem the
pact or save the future, would, like Curtius of
old, nobly commit themselves to the yawning
gulf. It is a great and noble cause you are en
gaged in, a momentous, solemn crisis, where every
roan may know aud provo himself; a time to
feel what sterling qualities he has within him,
what moral as well as physical courage; a time
when be may claim worthily to bo a mau, when
he may claim the honor, gratitude, and respect
of his fellow-men; "a tmie and tide,' ai Shake
speare has it, "on which a man may flood on to
prosperity." If a man have any character it
will evince ittelf at this time, and ho will rise
on the wings of mighty events or fall crushed
lorevcr beneath their glorious flight not that
every man is born what in vulgarly considered a
hero. Borne men have more common sense and
lees rashness than poor Captain Nolan (who was
well fcnown and deeply lamented bv a dear
friend of mine); but there U, in my opinion, far
more heroism required to bear, with ouiet. man v
fortitude, the exhausting, painful demands of
nature, the sudden destruction ot life-long
contracted habits and comforts, the in
sidious ravages of the two most positive
evils, cold and hunger; to contemplate
with stoic sclf-DOFsesBlon the sudden
dissolution ot one's bointr nnv mnmpnt. mn
hour; to be idaying the frightful hazard of romw
et noir with lito lor the stake for mouths together
in support of a principle held to bo noble. Buch
a man. m my nt'tnoie estimation, is a hero. Oh.
what a glorious day it will be when these men
return to the!r country 1 Deep, heartfelt wel
come will greet tbem on every side; straugers
hitherto will regard them as tried friends; and
oh I the happy moincnt when, onco more among
your own friends and family, the hearts that
have loved you, that have suflercd with and
watched, ay, aud prayed for you (for, be the ulti
mate good what it may, it Is natural to human
nature), shall gladden at your safe return; a
better, nobler being tnau you left. I am not
mistaken In this, or I never was right in my
lite: and 1 sometimes upbraid mvself when 1
catch myself entertaining a lurking witih that
you hat never pone.
-
Once more lost! Surely fate Is malhious
beyond measure, or we are bad steerers of our
bark. Uriel tour tdc nous joue Vou certsinly
acted your part well and stoically. But, oh.
you must let me crumble a little bit; my hert
and head are lull oi it; ana it you win not let
me speak ot that, I must be sileut. What la the
use ot telling n e ot any tuiure reality" You

these transport ships.

what a falsehood! I watched the little boats
come and go trom It. All delusion ! I took one
ot them and went near. I wtabed all the men

boarded her. Horrid wish.! 1 return to my
tower and watch and wait again. A voice a
seraph's it may bo whispers, "Vou are wanted
below." Uown 1 swim in a aeucious ureaai,

The first principle of intellectual advancement
is that in wbi :h it is most active. Ths great
secret of developing the faculties is to give tnem
much to do. and much inducement to do it.
Life must become as a leather in the balance
where there is an object to be gained; aud what
is life without an object? I for one do not value
it. 1 mutt have luteuser loys tnau tue mere iact
of eatiDg, drinking, ana sleeping, lue anxiety

have got into, only serve to excite my imn.nna-

but one object in view, anu mat nas taiteu iun

TRANSLATION OP AMDKOSE FHILLlrS.
Blest as the Immortal gods is he,
Ihe youth who fondly sits by thee,
And hears and sees thee all the while
Hoftly speak and sweetly smile,
'Twas this deprived my soul of rest,
And raifed such tumults in my breast;
For while I gazed in transport tost,
My breath was gone, my voice was lost.
My bosom glowed; the snbtle flame
Kan quick through all my vital frame;
O'er my dim eyes a darkness hung;
My ears with hollow murmurs rung.
In dewy damps my limbs were chilled;
My blood with gentle horrors thrilled;
My feeble pulse forgot to play
I tainted, sunk, and died away.
