VOL. LIII.
For the Intelligente ,
PARADISE LOST.
When Adam in bright Eden's bowers,
Redolent of perennial flowers,
Was Lord of beasts, and birds, and all
The reptile:kinds that creep and crawl,
'Twas not enough thus Lord to be,
Appointed by Divine decree !
The fool grew tired of single life,
And Madman-like must have a wife.
The Maker knew his great desire,
And like a fond indulgent Sire,
Took from his side, a rib and made
A wilful, wayward, meddling Jade,
Beautiful, yet weak of mind,
The scourge and curse of all mankind.
Oh! foolish man, what hast thou done!
Thy troubles now have just begun,
Thy beautiful and charming Eve,
Shall cause thee loud and long to grieve,
And curse the day that first was seen,
This fascinating Earth's first Queen.
Adam awoke and rubbed hie eyes,
Then rising up, in mute surprise,
Sees wrapt in slumbers at his side,
His lovely, fair, unconscious bride;
He tapped her gently on the cheek,
To see if she poor thing could speak--
She °peed her eves—great Jove! how•hrightl
They sparkled like the gems of night.
Adam, of course, Was somewhat dash'd,
He ne'er before felt so abash'il;
But spurred up now with thoughts of bliss,
He stammered out "Good Morning Miss."
The thing was done, "the ice was broke,"
And she, Fair Eve, now fairly woke,
Commenced discourse in words refined,
And talked poor Adam almost blind.
And now the woman's course began,
O'er bill, and dule, and mead, she ran,
Viewed every plant, and flower, and tree,
And talked the while and laughed with glee
Pried into every cave and nook,
Explored each winding, murmuring brook,
Woo curious, indeed to know—
How this, and that, and all was so.
Adam poor man, began to sigh,
Alas! he feared his end was nigh,
Curisity would kill him sure,
Her milling tongue who could endure?
Then muttering in a feeble voice,
Said he, "alas! it was my choice."
In Eden trees unnumbered grew;
With fruit of every taste and hue,
Of one alone man durst not eat,
The Woman thought >twould he a treat
To taste of that delicious tree,—
At least >Would show that they were free
The SERPENT, base and cunning, saw
That Woman feared no more the law
Which God thought proper to impose,
That Man might be exempt from woes;
Then searching all the Garden round,
At length Fair Eve his snakeship found,
Indulging ,, neath a shady grove,
In fancy flights and dreams of love;
The Serpent then with crafty arts,
A secret to Fair Eve imparts,
"Fair Eve," said he, " Oh ! durst I tell,
To one like thee I love so well,
The mystery that in yon tree lies,
Then would3st thou he most truly wise."
Fair Eve now lent a willing ear;
The secret she was bound to hear;
With eager look, and anxious tone,
She begged he'd make the secret known.
The artful serpent now complies,
With much ado and painful sighs,
Deplores that one so young and fair,
Should be a slave to wordly care,
And be deprived the knowledge hidden,
In the lofty tree to her forbidden,
"Rise up," said he, "in all your might,
Taste of the fruit—assert your right,
And then will knowledge flow to thee,
Like waters to the inland sea;
And would'st thou be like Gods on high,
The Apple eat, nor fear to die."
She heard, believed, and sought the tree,
In Woman's mighty majesty ;
Said she "who shall my ways control 7
Ate I not Queen from Pole to Pole 7"
She plucked the fruit, and gave her spouse,
Should he refuse, he knew 'twould rouse
Wild fury in her flashing eye,
Than which, he thought he'd best comply.
This flagrant act now sealed their doom,
The sky o'erspread with fearful gloom,
Whilst all the Angel Host of Heaven,
That it strange there should be given
To Satan, Archfield, Prince of Hell,
Power more great than 'fore he fell.
The secret known, the Apple eat,
In shame and fear the pair retreat,
, .
And seek to hide their naked parts,
With leaves of fig, and various arts,
In slumber tones Jehovah spoke—
"My former plans I now revoke
Hence ! from this Garden haste away
And fear the forfeit you shall pay!"
. .
Then Gabriel, by an obscure route,
From Eden led them trembling out.
Here Milton closed " Lost Paradise ;"
(Which now observe is written twice ;)
Like his mine is a masterpiece
i• From rhyme and verse a gran release—
My last great effort this shall be,
A long farewell to prissy.
Ah ! little know the vulgar herd
The loss of health and time incurred,
By one devoted to the muses,
And who by night and day peruses •
To give a polish to Isis rhymes,
Poets of late, and ancient times. •
I'll sacrifice no more--to please,
My health, and comfort, time and ease,
Nor lose in writing for the• Press,
My peace of mind through anxiousness.
But yet it is my great desire,
As from "Parnassus" I retire,
That my name should full long en dare
In poetry and Literature,
And that my wishes may be crowned,
I'll add (though different in sound)
A substitute for "Eden Found."
In woman then a child of Nature,
We see a restless fickle creature,
And who although designed to bless,
Deprived mankind of happiness;
Curious and hidden things to know,
Brought death into the world, and woe.
If then to man she was a curse,
She 71.0 W, of course, is ten limns worse,
Her affectedness, and foolish pride
The smiles, and tears, with which she'd hide
The blackness of a hollow heart,
_ Her skill 'in treachery's odious art,
The slanderous tougue, the grand deceit,
And more not seemly to repeat,
In this and every age have bees,
Despised by all right-minded men.
• How strange that fools despite of this,
• Should think it height of earthly bliss,
To win her smiles, and hear her sing,
And talk, and play, and have her fling
ller arms about their necks and sigh,
And falter love that ne'er should die.
Infatuated thus, some choose
To try the matrimonial noose,
But be they Lords, or Squires, or "Squirks,"
Too late they'll find thev"e met with Turks.
Young mess beware lest you should barter
Single life for a vicious Tartar!
MARIETTA, Aprd,ls, 1851.
From the St. Louis Republican, April 5.
The Steamboat Explosion at St.
Louis.
We are called on record a most terrible catas
trophe—the explosion of the steamer Glencoe, and
the destruction of a large number of human beings;
it cannot be ascertained bow many.
The steamer had just arrived, on Saturday even
ing, between seven and eight o'clock, from New
Orleans, heavily laden, and was endeavoring to ef
fect a landing between Pine and Chesnut streets.
The steamers Aleck Scott, George, Cataract and
Western World were lying, one beside the other, at
that point, and the Glencoe was attempting an en
trance between the Cataract and the Georgia. She
lay with her bows a.little above the stern of the
Georgia, when two or more of her boilers exploded
spreading death and destruction in every direction
about her.
From the young gentleman who, during the up
ward trip of the Glencoe, acted as her assistant
clerk, we learn that she carried eighty deck pas
sengers, more or less, and from twenty to twenty
five cabin passengers. The bo'at had touched at
several adjacent steamers a sufficiently long time to
allow many persons from shore to board her, swel
ling her numbers considerably.
The explosion was, as we have intimated, a tre
mendous one. The entire upper works of the
Glencoe forward of the pilot-house—unfortunately
the part where the majority ofthe passengers had
gathered to witness the landing—were torn away.
Chimneys, boilers, timbers, and freight were scat
tered about, with many human beings, in every di•
rection.
The work of destruction was not confined to the
Glencoe. The after upper works of the Cataract,
which lay close by, taking in the whole of the la
dies 't abin were destroyed. Other boats near by
were visited, but to a less extent, by the calamity.
Shortly after the explosion the boat was discov
ered to be on fire, and simultaneously with the dis
covery commenced floating down. The full extent
of the ruin presented itself as she passed down.
The cabin forward of the wheel-house was gone.
A portion of it had been thrown on the freight piled
at the .forecastle, this mass rising as high as the
after hurricane deck. The flames were burning
fiercely about where the boilers had been, and
spreading rapidly to all sides. From the shore
many human beings, men and women, could be
descried hurrying from one side to the other, des
perately seeking some place of escape.
One or two poor fellows, who had been scalded
and afterwards caught in the falling timbers, were
seen motioning and heard crying wildly for assist
ance, as the flames reached and enveloped them.—
The scene was a most horrible one._As the boat
continued to glide down her yawl ecame filled
with her surviving passengers. The yawls of some
other boats also were pushed out and succeeded in
saving others. We can make no correct estimate
of the number of persons lost by scalding and
drowning. It is supposed that from sixty to seventy
were saved.. Allowing this estimate to be correct,
from thirty to forty, or even more, lives have been
lost.
The scenes witnessed immediately after the occur
rence of the catastrophe are of the most heart
rending description. We noticed several men, their
faces blackened, their Clothes wet and soiled with
ashes, hurrying along the levee and crying for re
lief. One body on the Cataract had the head blown
entirely off. We saw also the legs of a boy or
girl, the body having lodged in some other direc
tion. Ile body of a lady, so horribly mangled
that it scarcely held - together, was taken from the
ruins of the Cataract's ladies' cabin. The bodies
recovered, with two exceptions, were horribly mu
tilated. The limbs seemed all to be broken, liter
ally crushed, and in several instances many of
them were separated from the trunks.
The greater number of passengers in the cabin
of the Glencoe, were embraced in a party consist
ing of Mrs. John Lee and servant, Miss Jane Lee.
l‘lrs. John Finney, and two children of Mrs. Lee.
Fortunately, no heavy missile took the direction of
that portion of the boat. The concussion which
followed the explosion was, however, so great as to
extinguish every light, to smash the lamps, &c.—
The ladies in time gropecl,their way to the larboard
guard. Mrs. John Lee,and servant, with Miss Jane
Lee, stepped on the adjacent steamer Cataract, and,
Mrs. Finny, who alone of the party, retained her'
full presence of mind, returned to the cabin_ in
quest of the children of Mrs. Lee, who, in the pre
vailing confusion, had been forgotten. Feeling her
way to the propertstate room, she entered and
founb the younger child still lying securely in its
berth. She carried it to the parent, and then re
turned for the other. Failing in her object, she
carried to the guard of the steamer Cataract sever
al boxes and packages, the property of various
members,. of the party.
Mrs. Finney, believing that the full extent of the
mischief had been consummated with the explo
sion, was not aware that the ill-fated craft had
caught fire, and been .cast loose. She continued
courageously to exert herself in attempts to save
the lives and property of the passengers, and had
returned again to the cabin in search of the other I
missing son of Mrs. Lee. The darkness was such
that she failed
,to discern even the objects nearest
to her. Added to this, large volumes of steam
which poured into the apartment rendered respira
tion very difficult. On several occasions she called
loudly for assistance, but received no reply, altho'
she believes she heard the frequent sounds of foot
steps as of persons of hurrying rapidly to and fro.
Going out again she discovered that the boat was
much below the point where she previously lay,
and was being carried rapidly down the stream.—
She became, at the same time, award. of the exist
ence of the fire, and perceived that the flames were
spreading in every direction. From the guard, by
means of one of the stenchions, she reached the
deck beldiv. Some four persons, to wit: Mrs. Fin
ney and another lady passenger, whose name we
do not know, a colored man servant of Mrs. Lee,
and a colored servant of Mrs. Finney, stood here
as the last load of deck passengers pushed away
from the burning steamer. The yawl lay down to
her gunwale in the water, so heavily was she la-r
dened. Another yawl was fastened to the boat, and
the party fearing the sinking of the former, preps.;
red to avail themselves of this. Some gentlemen,'
unknown, joined them here, and rendered valuable
assistance. They got into this boat and shoved
off. They bad gone but a short distance, when the
burning wreck, which drifted faster, overtook them,
and the yawl commenced to pass underneath her
guard At this time, Mrs. Finney receive d a se
vere blow on the forehead from the boat's guard,
which prostrated her for a few moments senseless
to the bottom of the boat.
The steamer, as we have said, was heavily la
dened, and her guard in some places almost touch
ed the water. I he boat continued to hug and glide
along her hull—:the tenants of the former stooping
low as the passed—and at last, where the guard
was nearer the water, she became fast, and the two
pursued their fearful -course together, The feel
ings of the inmates may be conceived. Owing to
the projection of the flooring overhead, they were
enveloped in complete darkness; and thus, while
the roar of the flames, and the cracking of - the
timbers above, advised them of the full horrible
peril of their position, they were prevented by the
guard from even rising to a sitting posture to at
tempt an escape. At last the steamer struck-vio
lently against the shore. Persons on the adjacent
wood discovered the 'party in the yawl.
The fire above tad made considerable progress
when Mrs. Finney discovered a means of escape by
the light which gleamed to the after part of the
yawl. Creeping to that point she found the aper
ture sufficiently large to pass out. Some wood
boats were hard by, on which, after a few moments,
herself and her companions succeeded to find secu
rity. The trial was a great one, but equaled by
the admirable presence of mind and courage of a
lady on whom it might well have proved most
overwhelming. The history, strange as it may
seem, is nevertheless true in every particular, and
was derived from the most authentic source. ct

A TALE OF SORROW.
Alas ! that love which is BO sweet a thing,
Should ever cause guilt, grief or suffering!
"Oh! my God, preserve me from such a fate,
sobbed poor Mary, "but mother says I shall spend
my days in the confines of a tedious convent, be

grant that this step of my parent, angered by my

fraught with evil consequences, as my poor heart,
by its heavy throbs, tells me it will! Farewell
Lewis, you whom I have loved so long! and tho'
I shall never ,ee you again, may you be happy!"
. The unhappy girl was here interrupted by the
entrance of her mother, followed by Father
Angelique. "My daughter, are ; you ready to re
nounce the addresses and affection of whom I hate."
"No, mother, there is no other thitt can be loved
by this heart; and if I cannot be his, let your
daughter be consigned to the oblivion of a nun's

pression of the tenderest affection, as if imploring
her parent to spare her still.

CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL .27, 1852.
but a few weeks before, blooming with all the
freshness of the roses, were now pale as if the
leaden hue of death had settled upon them. Her
expression gave evidence of intense recent suffer
ing; and through her brow was stamped:with the
impression of her soul-harrowing agony, yet there
was also something that gave evidence of a pain
ful resignation to fate. This is young "Sister Eliz
abeth," late the fair and beautiful Mary Findly.
"Will sister Elizabeth acompany me in the gar
den—it is eve, and the pure air will sumed that the
young lover, not haying freshen my sister's droop
ing spirits—you must not give away to grief thus."
"Sister Agatha, you are very kind, but I cannot
walk; the fresh air of the garden only cases me to
sigh for greater freedom, and renders me still more
miserable, because it brings to mind times spent
with him for hours. I'm dying; this frail form of
mine, sister, will soon be clad in the habiliments of
the tomb."
"Talk not thus, sister, you will live long yet to
bless your associates in the good cause, and the
sinners to be converted and to be happy; but come
along, you will be. revived." And Mary, as she
again inhaled the free unobstructed air of heaven,
did feel revived; a new hope sprang up in her bo
som. The sun had just set, and the unclouded sky
was glowing in the orange hue of evening; the fra
grant flowers were offering up to their Maker, the
sweet incense of their odoriferous natures! Mary
had wandered apart from sister Agatha, near to
the back wall, when she perceived a package fall
at her feet; she picked it up and without betraying
emotion, saw that it was in the hand-writing of
Lewis. Hurrying to her room, after kissing the
graceful missive an hundred times, she tore it
open, and with indescribable emotions of delight,
read as follows:
My dear, dear Mary:—lt is not in my power to
describe with the pen my feelings, on becoming
aware, that all that was dear to me in this world
had been torn ruthlessly from me. I have luckily
found out where you are; and if you are still true
to your plighted vows, you shall be mine, and we
will be happy yet. My family have bid me join
them in Paris, whither I have prepared to sail on
the morrow. It is necessary that we should travel
together as man and wife, and immediately on
reaching Paris we will be united. But at the south
eastern corner of the garden, at midnight, there
you will find a rope ladder, ascend it, and you will
be in the arms of your devoted lover.
Adieu for a few hours.
Your LEWIS.
The feelings that filled the bosom of the delighted
girl cannot be described—enough that she did not,
hesitate to fly to him, whom she adored, let Mil
consequences be what they might. It was 11
o'clock, and Father Angelique had blessed his
daughter for the last time but—but one! Mary
longed to tell him farewell forever; this however,
she could not do. It is hall-past eleien, and the
tones of the organ, in harmony with the sweet
voices of the sisters rise in swelling strains upon
the midnight air, and Mary, with quick step, had
quit the tedious abode forever? The last stroke of
the clock, striking 12, is dying away, and Mary
no longer "Sister Elizabeth," is in the arms of her
lover.
The voya g e was pleasant and prosperous, and
Lewis and Mary were happy in each other's loves.
In due time they arrived in Paris, and, until they
could be married, they determined to obtain apart
ments in Rack street. Lewis called upon his
friends and informed them that he "had taken
apartments with a friend, where he might prose
cute his studies agreeably, without interruption!"—
An opportunity to have the marriage ceremony
performed, had not yet presented itself. Procrasti
nation ! thou art indeed the thief of time—aye, 6t
happiness and life. It was now December, and po
litical storms were brewing upon the horizon of
the French people. It was a gloomy day, and
Lewis had gone to visit his friends, who were pre
paring to leave the scene of bloodshed that Paris
presented. Mary was alone. Night came, and
hour after hour did the unhappy girl watch the
coming of her lover, but in vain! Morning came,
and Lewis did not appear. All day had Paris been
in an uproar, the air was rent with the unceasing
roar of artillery, from morning till night, which
brought not the absent one.
Now for the first time, she comprehended the
extent of her transgression, and the sin she had
committed appeared to increase every moment in
magnitude. Another night was wearing slowly
away; Mary's case was becoming desperate. She
conceived that the last words sh had ever heard
her mother speak, were written in blazing letters
upon the wall: Mary! you shall never be the wife of
Lewis Benson.
_
Driven almost to distraction, in her convulsions
of grief and agony of suspense, she shrieked aloud
and swooned away.
The morning after Mary's disappearance from
the convent, found its inmates in a state of great
excitement. The grief of the; good priest Ange
lique and sister Agatha was severe; and the agony
of the mother on hearing of her seduction from
the place, where she thought her perfectly safe, was
truly indescribable. She felt that she had been too
harsh. The excitement, however, passed away
without their receiving any tidings of the lost one.
When December came, Father Ageliqe was unex
pectedly called to France, and, one morning
while
on his way to Notre Dame church, Paris, he was
led by curiosity to the morgue, where unknown
strangers are exposed after death, to be identified.
He approached the couch upon which lay a female
' shrouded decently—on uncovering the fair sleeper's
face, he drew back, horrified; and then, with a
groan of agony, knelt by her side, and once snore
blessed "Sister Elizabetk" The following from
a report of the police commissary, appeared in
a Paris paper of the 12th of January.
The police commissary of this quarter of the
ministry, lately reported, three days ago, in a mod
est lodgings of a back street, the double suicide of a
young student and a lady of foreign origin living
with him. He had represented her on taking lodg
ings, as his wife. In taking all the particulars of
that event, in order to write a report, the police
magistrate found some papers and regular acts,
which established, the individuality of the young
man; but he could not discover anything of a na
ture to give a knowledge of the unfortunate lady
who asphyxied:herself with her lover. The body
of the young woman was taken to the morgue,
where she was decently exposed. Yesterday, an
old American priest, who was coming from Notre
Dame church, entered curiously the goomy estab
lishment, and recognised, in the young lady expo
sed, one of the inmates of a religious institution in
New York, Miss Mary F, who disappeared in the
last part of July. A summary inquest held after
the declaration of the venerable stranger, proved
that the young man, L. 8., had an uncle in NeW
York, with whom he had spent about 18 months,
till July, 1851. It is supposed that, at the epoch,
he had some relations with Miss Mary, althfiugh
in a convent, and induced her to follow him to
France, where his family called him. It was per
haps the sorrow for her fault that induced the
young lady to commit suicide; and it is also sup
posed that he who had authority enough over her
to make her renounce fatal her resolution, wished
partake her fate.
'Tis sad to dwell upon the fact, that so lovely a
creature as Mary F.should perish in alhher bloom,
and share the fate of her lover in a Double Suicide!

DR. JOHNSTON;
Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, Lon
don, Graduate from one of the most eminent Col
leges of the United States and the greater part of
whose life has been spent in the Hospitals of Lon
don, Paris, Philadelphia, and elsewhere, has affect
ed some of the most astonishing . cures that were
ever known. Many, troubled with ringing in the
ears and head when asleep,great nervousness, being
alarmed at'sudden sounds, and bashfulness, with
frequent blushing, attended, sometimes, with de
rangement of mind, were cured immediately.
TAKE PARTICULAR NOTICE.
Dr. 3. addresses all, those who ha to injured
themselves by private and improper inddlgencies,
that secret and solitary habits, which ruin both
body and mind, unfitting them for either business
or society.
These are some of the sad and melancholy ef
fects produced by early habits of youth, viz :
Weakness of the back and limbs, Pains in the head,
Dimness of Sight, Loss of Muscular Power, Pal
pitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Nervous Irrita
bility, Derangement of the Digestive Functions,
General Debility, Symptoms of Consumption, &c.
Mentally.—The fearful effects on the mind are
much to be dreaded; Loss of Memory, Confusion
of Ideas, Depression of Spirits, Evil of Forebo
ding, Aversion of Society, Self Distrust, Love of
Solitude, Timidity, &c., are some of the evils pro
duced'
NERVOUS DEBILITY.
Weakness of the system, Nervous Debility and
premature decay generally arises from the destruct
ive habit of youth, that solitary practice so fatal to
the healthful existence of man, and it is the young
who are themost apt to become its Victims from
an ignorance of the dangers to which they subject
themselves. Parents and Guardians are often mis.
led with respect to the cause or source of disease
in their sons and wards. Alas! how often do they
ascribe to other causes the wasting of the frame,
Palpitation of the Heart, Dyspepsia, Indigestion,
Derangement of the Nervous System, Cough and
Symptoms of Consumption, also those serious
Mental effects, such as loss of Memory, Depres
sion of Spirits or peculiar fits of Melancholy, when
the truth is they have been caused by indulging
Pernicious but alluring practices, destructive to
both Body and Mind. Thus are swept from ex
istence thousands who might have been of use to
their country, a pleasure to their friends, an orna
rnent to society.
WEAKNESS OF THE ORGANS
immediately cured and full vigor restored.
Oh, how happy have hundreds of misguided
youths been made, who have been suddenly resto
red to health from the devastations of those terrific
maladies which result from indiscretion. Such
persons, before contemplating
MARRIAGE,
should reflect that a sound mind and body are the
moat necessary requisites to promote connubial
happiness. Indeed, without this, the journey thro'
life becomes a weary pilgrimage ; the prospect
hourly darkens to the view ; the mind becomes
shadowed with despair, and filled with the melan
choly reflection that the happiness of another be
comes blighted with our own. Let no false delica
cy prevent you, but apply immediately.
He who places himself under the care of Dr.
JOHNSTON, may religiously confide in his hon
or as a Gentleman, and confidently rely upon his
skill as a Physician
TO STRANGERS.
The many thousands cured at this institution
within the last ten years, and the numerous im
portant Surgical Operations performed by Dr. J.,
witnessed by the Reporters of the papers and ma
ny other persons, notices of which have appeared
again and again before the public,
is a sufficient
guarantee that the afflicted will find a skilful and
honorable physician.
N. B.—Shun the numerous pretenders who call
themselves Physicians, and apply to DR. JOHN
