ORIGIN AND DESTINY
Among those who aspired to the hand of
Laura Woodville, was a young man named
'Percival, whose father, a poor day laborer,
!had, by self-denial through many years,
succeeded in giving him an education be
yond what was usually acquired at that
!time by those in the lower walks of life.—
' When sixteen years of age, an attorney of
some eminence, whb pereeived in the lad
more than ordinary ability, took him into
I bis office, and raised him to the profession
of the law. At the time of which we write
Percival, who was 25 ; years old,had already
gained some reputation at the bar, having
conducted to a successful issue several very
important cases.
Mr. Woodville, to the hand of whose
daughter, as has just been said, Percival
aipired, was a merchant in rather reduced
circumstances, but connected with certain
families more distinguished for aristocratic
pride than virtue. This connection was
the more valued in consequence of the loss
of wealth through disasters in trade, and
the inability to keeps up those external ap
pearances which dazzle the multitude and
extort a homage that is grateful to weak
minds.
Laura, a beautiful and highly accom
plished girl, was a favorite in all circles,
and there were many among the wealthy
and fashionable who, for her.personal at
tractions alone,were ready to approach .and
offer the homage of sincere affection.—
Among these was a young man named Al
lison, whose family had, in the eyes of ;qr.
Woodville, everything to render a marriag
connection desirable. But Laura never
encouraged his advances in the least; for
she felt for him a strong internal repulsion.
He was wealthy, accomplished, attractive
in person, and connected, both on his fath
er's and mother's side, with some of the
oldest and so-called "best families" in the
State. These, however, were not, in her
eyes, attractions sufficiently strong to in
duce her to overlook qualities of the heart.
Already in her contact with the world had
she been made to feel its hollowness and
its selfish cruelty. Per something more
than mere fashionable blandishments had
her heart begun to yearn. She felt that
a true and virtuous friend was a treasure
beyond all price.
While this state of mind was in progress
Laura met Henry'Percival. A mutual re
gard was soon developed, which increased
until it became a deep and sincere affec
tion. In the meantime Allison, confident
from his position, became bolder in his ad
vances,'and as a preliminary step, gave
Woodville an intimation of his views. The
old merchant heard him gladly, and yield
ed a full prosecution of his suite. But
perceiving what was in the mind of the
young man, Laura shrunk from him, and
met all his advances with a chilling reserve
that was not for an instant to be misunder
stood. In the meantime, Percival daily
gained new favor in her eyes, and was at
length emboldened to declare what was in
his heart. With ill-concealed pleasure
Laura referred the young man to her fath
er. As to the issue of the reference she
had well grounded fears.
The day that followed this declaration
was one of anxious suspense to Laura.—
She was alone, late in the afternoon, when
her father came into the room where she
was sitting. She saw instantly what was
in his mind; there was a cloud on his face,
and she knew that he had repulsed Mir
lover.
"Laura," said he gravely, as he sat
down by her side, was exceedingly Bar
prised and pained to-day to receive from a
young upstart attorney, of whose family no
one has ever heard, an offer for your hand,
made, as was affirmed, with your consent.
Surely this affirmation was not true ?"
A deep crimson flushed the face of Laura
her eyes fell to the floor, and she exhibi
ted signs of strong agitation.
' "Yon may not be aware," continued Mr.
Woodville, "that Mr. Allison has_also been
to me with a similar application."
“Mr. :Allison!" The eyes of Lanza
were raised quickly from the floor, andher
manner exhibited the repugmuyse she felt.
((I'can never look upon Mr. Allison as
':'more than a friend," she said calmly.
"Laura! Has it indeed come to this ?"
'oak Mr Woodvillii,', really: disturbed.—
. ,
"Will you disgrace yourself and family .by
a union with a vulgar upstart from the
lower ranks, when an alliance so distin-'
guished as this is offered? Who is Perci
val? Wher6 is he from 7 What is his or,
igin 1"
"I regard rather his destiny than his or
igin," replied the daughter; for that con
cerns me far more nearly than the other.—
I shall haie to tread the way my husband
goes, not the 'way he has come. The past
is past. In the future lies my happiness or
misery."
"Are you beside yourself:" exclaimed
the father, losing his self-command before
the rational calmness of his child.
"No, father," replied Laura; "not beside
myself. In the principles that govern Mr.
Allison, I have no confidence; and it is a
man's principle that determine the path he
is to tread in life. On the other hand, I
have the fullest confidence in those of Mr.
Percival, and know where they will lead
him. This is a matter in which I cannot
look back to see from whence the person
has come; everything depends on a knowl
edge as to where he is going."
"Do you know," said Mr. Woodville,not
giving the words of his child the smallest
consideration, "that the father of this fel
low, PerciVaL was a day laborer in one of
Mr. Allison's manufacturing establishments
A. mere day-laborer?
"I have heard as much. Was he not an
honest and honorable man ?"
"Madness, girl!" ejaculated Mr. Wood
ville, at this question, still further losing
his self-control. "Do you think that lam
going to see my child, who has the blood
of the P—'s, and R.—'s, and W--'s
in her veins, mingle it with the vile blood
of a common laborer ? You have been
much in error if, for a moment, you have
indulged in the idle dream. I positively
forlitd all intercourse with this Percival.—
Do not disobey me, or the consequences to
yourself will be of the saddest kind."
As her father ceased speaking, Laura
arose weeping, and left the room.
. A deep calm succeeded to this sudden
storm that had fallen from a sumtner sky.
But it was indicative of a heavier and
more devastating storm. Laura.commun
icated to Percival the fact of her painful
interview with her father, and at the same
time gave him to understand that no change
in his views was to be expected, and that
to seek to effect a change would only be to
place himself in the way of repulse and in
sult. Both of these the young man had
already received.
A few months later, and, fully avowing
her purpose, Laura left the house of her
parents and became the wife of Percival.
A step like this is never taken without suf
fering. Sometimes it is wisely, but oftener
unwisely taken; but never without pain.—
In this case the pain on both sides was se
vere. Mr. Woodville loved his daughter
tenderly, and she felt for her father a more
than common attachment. But he was a
proud and selfish man. The marriage of
Laura not only disappointed and mortified,
but made him angry beyond all reason and
self-control. In the bitterness of his feel
ings he vowed never to look upon nor for
give her. It was all in vain, therefore,
that his daughter sought a reconciliation;
she met only a stern repulse.
Years went by, and it remained the same.
Many times during that long period did
Laura approach her old home; but only to
be repulsed. At last, she was startled and
afflicted with the sad news of her mother's
death. In the sudden anguish of her feel
ing she hurried to her father's house. As
she stood with others who bad gathered
around, gazing upon the lifeless form of
her dead parent, she became aware that the
living one had entered the room, and, to
all appearance, unconscious of her pres
enee, .was standing by her side. A tremor
went through her frame. She felt faint
and ready to drop to the floor. In this
season of deep affliction might he not for
give the past? Hope sprung up within
her. In the presence of the.dead he could,
could not throw her off. She laid her hand
gently on his. He turned. Her tearful
eyes were lifted in his face. A moment
of thrilling suspense ! Pride and anger
Ronquered again. Without a sign of re
cognition, he turned away and left the
chamber of death.
Braeing herself up with an intense
struggle, Laura pressed her lips to the
cold brqw of her mother, and then silently
retired.
During the time that intervened from
his marriage up to this period, Mr. Perci
val had been gradually rising in the Confi
dence, respect and esteem of the commu
nity, and was, acquiring wealth through
means of a large practice at the bar. As
a husband he had proved most kind and
affectionate. As a man he was the very
soul of honor. All who knew him held
him in the highest regard.
After the death of his wife, Mr. Wood
ville fell into a gloomy state o mind. His
business, which had been declining for
years, was becoming less and less profit
able, and to increase his trouble, he found
himself progressing toward embarrassment
if not bankruptcy. The man whom of all
others he had wished to see the husband
of his daughter, married a beautiful heiress,
and was living in a style of great elegance.
He met the brilliant bride occasionally,
and always with an unpleasant feeling.—
One day while walking with a gentle
man,- they passed Allison, when his com
panion said :
"If that man doesn't break his wife's
heart within five years, I shall think she
has few of woman's best and holiest feel
ings."
"Why do you say • that r asked Mr.
Woodville, evincing much surprise.
"In the first place," replied the friend,
"a man with bad principles is not the, one
to make a right minded woman happy.—
And, in the second place, a man who re
gards neither virtue or decency in his con
duct, is the one tomake her life wretched."
"But is Allison such a man ?"
"He is, to my certain knowledge. I
knew him when a boy. We were school
mates. He then gave me evidence of more
than ordinary natural depravity;.and from
the training he has received, that depravi
ty has been encouraged to grow. Since
he became a man I have had many oppor-.
tunities for observing him closely, and I
speak deliberately when I say that I hold
him in exceedingly low estimation. I am
personally cognizant• of acts that stamp
himps, possessing neither honor nor, as I
Said before, decency, and a very lOng time
will not, probably elapse, before he will
betray all . this to:the world. Men like him,
indulge in evil passionsandselfash . desires,
until they-lose even-common , prudence."
“You astonish - me," said Mr. Woodville,
"THAT' 60111.1 TRY 11 TEN MOST ,PROSPRECOOS maim. LABOR! 0011:31ANDBi-THS,
LANCASTER CITY, PA, TIJESD.AY MORNING, MARCH 27, 1855.
"I cannot credit your words. He belongs
to one of the best families."
"So called, but judged by a trim stan.:
daid, I should say one of our worst families."
"Why do you say that?" asked Mr.
Woodville, evincing still more surprise.
"The virtues of an individual," replied
the gentleman, "make his standard of
worth. The same ,is true of families. De
cayed wood, covered with shining gold, is
not so valuable as sound and polished oak.
Nor is a family, raised by wealth, or any
external gilding, into a high social position,
if not possessed of virtue, half so worthy of
confidence and esteem as one of less pre
tension but endowed with honorable prin
ciples. The father of Mr. Allison, it is
well known, was a gentleman only in a
Chesterfieldian sense. A more hollow
hearted man never existed. And the son
is like the father, only more depraved.
Mr. Woodville wasprofoundly astonish
ed. All this he might have known from
personal observation, had not his eyes been
so dazzled with the external brilliancy of
the person condemned, as to disqualify
titan for looking deeper, and perceiving
the real character of what was beneath the
brilliant gilding. He was astonished,
though not entirely convinced. It did not
seem possible that any one in the elevated
position of Mr. Allison could be so base
as was affirmed.
A few months later and Mr. Woodville
was surprised at the announcement that
the wife of Mr. Allison had separated her
self from him, and returned to her father's
house. Various causes were assigned for
this act, the most prominent of which was
infidelity. Soon after an application for
divorce was laid before the Legislature,
with such proofs of ill-treatment and shock
ing depravity of conduct, as procured an
instant release from the marriage contract.
By this time the• proud, angry father,
was beginning to see that he had probably
committed an error. An emotion of thank-
fullness that his child was not the wife of
Allison arose, spontaneously in his breast ;
but he did not permit it to come into his
deliberate thoughts, nor take the form of
an uttered sentiment. Steadily the change
in his outward circumstances progressed.
He was growing old, and losing the
ability to do business on an equality with
the younger and more `eager merchants
around him, who were gradually drawing off
his oldest and best customers. Disappoint
ed; lonely, anxious, and depressedin spir
its, the conviction that he had committed a
great mistake was daily forcing itself more
and more upon the mind of Mr. Woodville.
When evening came, and he returned o
his. silent, his almost deserted dwelling,
hig loneliness would deepen into sadness ;
and then like an unbidden but not entirely
unwelcome guest, the image of Laura would
come before his imagination, and her low
and tender voice would sound in his ears.
But pride and resentment were still in his
heart, and after gazing on the pensive, lov
ing face of his child for a time, he would
seek to expel the vision. She had degrad
ed herself in marriage. Who or what was
her husband? A low vulgar fellow, raised
a little above the common herd ! such and
only such did he esteem him ; and, when
ever he thought of him, his resentment to
ward Laura came back in full force.
Twus it went on, until twelve years
from, the time of Laura's marriage had
passed away, and in that long peri6d the
father had seen her face but once, and then
it was in the presence of the dead. Fre
quently, in the first year of that time had
she sought a reconciliation ; but repulsed
on each occasion, she had ceased to make
approaches. As to her husband, so entire
ly did Mr. Woodville reject him, that he
cast out of his mind his very likeness, and
not meeting him, ceased actually to re
member his features, so that if he had en
countered him in the street he would not
have known him. He could,.and had said,
therefore, when asked about Percival, that
he "didn't know him." Of his rising re
putation and social standing he knew but
little; for his very name being an offence,
he rejected it on the first utterance, and
pushed aside rather than looked at any in
formation regarding him.
At last the external affairs of Mr. Wood
ville became desperate. His business ac
tually died out, so that the expense of con
ducting it being more than the proceeds,
he closed up his mercantile history, and
retired on a meagre_ property, scarcely suf
ficient to meet his wants. But scarcely
had this change taken place, when a claim
on the only piece of real estate which he
held, was made on the allegation of a de
fective title. On consulting a lawyer he
was alarmed to find that the claim had a
plausible basis, and that the chances were
against him. When the case was brought
up Mr. Woodville appeared in court, and
with trembling anxiety watched the pro
gress of the trial. The claim was apparent
ly a fair one, and yet not really just. On
the side of the prosecution was a subtle,
ingenious and eloquent lawyer, in whose
hands his counsel was little more than a
child, and he saw with despair that all the
chances were against him. The loss of this
remnant of property would leave him ut
terly destitute. After a vigorous argu
ment on the one side, and a feeble rejoin
der on the other, the case was about being
submitted when a new advocate appeared
on the side of the defence. He was un
known to .Mr. Woodville. On rising in
court there was a profound silence.
He began by observing that he had some
thing to say in the case ere it closed,•and
as he had studied it carefully and weighed
with due deliberation all the evidence which
had app'eared, he was satisfied that he could
show cause why the prosecution should not
obtain a favorable decision. ! •
In surprise Mr. Woodville bent forward
to listen.
.The lawyer was tall in person ;
dignified in manner and spoke with a pecu
liar musical intonation and eloquent flow of
language that marked himaspossessing both
talents and'eduoation of a high order. In
a few minutes he was perfectly absorbed in
his argument. It was clear and strong in
every part, and tore into very tatters the
subtle chain of reasoning presented by the
opposing counsel. For an hour he occupi
ed the attention of thecourt. On'closing his
speech he immediately * retired. The de
cision was in Mr. Woodville's favor.
"Who is that? he asked, turning to a
gentleman who sat beside him,- as the
strange advocate left the.floor.
The man looked at him in surprise.
"Not know him'?" said he.
- Mr. Woodville shook his head.
“His name is Percival."
Mr. Woodville turned his face partly
away to conceal the sudden flusd that went
over it. After the decision in his favor
had been given, and he had returned home
wondering at 'what had just .oecurred, he
sat musing alone, when there came a
light tapping is from the hand of a child'
at his .door. Ppening.it, he found a _bay
there not overtive or six years of age, with
golden hairfalling over hie shoulders, and.
bright blue eyes raised to his own.
"Grandpa,',' said the child,. looking earn
estly into his lace.
For a moment the old mau stood and
trembled. Then stooping down, he took
the child in his arms, - and ugged it
with a sudden emotion tb his heart, - while
the long sealed fountain of his feelings
gushed forth ;again, and tears came f rom
the lids that lwere tightly shut to repress
them.
Father!" The eyes were quiokiy unclos
ed. There was now another present. '
"My child!" came trembling from his
lips, and Laura flung herself upon his bo
som.
How changed to the eyes of Mr. Woo -
villa was all, after this. When he met M 1
Percival he was even More surprised tha
in the court room at his, manly dignity o
character, his refinement' and enlarged in
telligence. And when he went abroad an
perceived what he had never before allowt
himself to see, the high estimation" in vthio
he was held by all in the community, he wa.4
still further affected with wonder.
In less than a year after this reeoncilit
ation, Mr. Percival was chosen to a high
officein the State ; and within that tim
Mr. Allison was detected in a criminal co 4
spiracy to defraud, and left the common
wealth to escape punishment.
So much for origin and destiny. Lauri
was right; it ,concerns a maiden far more
to know whither her lover is going than
than whence he came ; for she has to jouri,
ney with him in the former and not the lat
ter ',ray.
JENNY LIND GOLDSCIIMIDT AT DRES
DEN—TIER POWERS FAILING—HER DRESS
AT THE CONCERT.—A correspondent of
MOORE'S Rural New Yorker, writing from
Dresden, says : !
c!I have recently been enjoying a great!
treat! nothing less than attending a con; I
cert given by Jenny Lind—and listened
the encl Anting song of the "Swedish Nigh I I
ingale," as she was so often called in luir i
triumphant progress through . America.
You
You probably know that Madam Gol -.!
schmidt (the unromantic appelliaton info!
which marriage has metamorphosed the!
world-renowned name of Jenny Lind) isal
resident of this city. She occupies ti.
e ,
second story of a fine house, situated in
the outskirts of the town, and commana
lug so extensive a view of the delightfhl!
country which ,surrounds Dresden, that the!
rocky fortresses of the Saxon Switzerland',
loom up distinctly in the far !off horizon.'
Jenny lives in a very quiet, retired mO-!
ner •'
does not mingle in general society,
but has a select circle of acquaintances!
among the artists and men of musical tal
ent who are. collected in this music loving,
city. !
cclt is realy astonishing tg,see how conk.'
pletely she enters into the spirit of every-;
thing she sings, however diversified is
character it may be, child-like , simplicity,
high souled enthusiasm, passionate emotion'
—she is equally at home in all. The con
cluding piece at this concert was a Swedish
dance and national melody, in which;
Madame Goldschmidt accompanied herself
on the piano. It was full of bursts of wild
glee, which she gave with zest and abandna
which were perfectly contagious. When
these strains came she would• turn halt'
round from the piano and shower the clear;
ringing notes upon the audience like shonn4
of joyous laughter, her face all the whilel
wearing an expression of such radiant hapi
piness that one could not but smile from
very sympathy.
"But every picture must have its shad-,
ows, so now for a little criticism to com
plete my sketch of thie-wonderful singer.
Her voice is remarkably rich and powerful
in the lower and middle notes, with a clearl
metallic ring in it, which I never heard
equaled; hilt when she reaches the highest
notes, those where she, formerly produced
the flute-like tones which conquered her
the proud appellation of the 'Swedish
Nightingale,' 1 could perceive, little as I
understand of these matters, that there
was a Wing off. Still the public seem to ,
be unanimously of the opinion that her
voice more nearly approaohns, its former
standard this winter than last.
"Some of our acquaintances here, who
have heard her perform operas in former
years, when she was in the zenith of her
glory, say that she is now but a wreck of
her former self, and that strains which she
once executed with perfect ease she would
not now dare attempt. How this may be
I know not, I only know that with her
present powers she afforded me more pleztivt
ure than any or. all the singers I have ever
before heard.
“Dresden is a very musical place, next
to Leipsic the most so of all Germany.- 1 ,
Concerts of all kinds and ' descriptions
abound, from those where tickets are ! a
thaler (Madame Goldschmidt's were a thar
ler and a half) to these where the price of
admission is less than sixpence of our money.
"But I perceive that I have omitted one
very important item in .my account of Jen
ny Lind's concert—important, at least, in
consideration, that I am writing to a lady
—namely, the manner in which the fair
singer was. dressed. She•wore a silk of a
plain rose color trimmed with white lade;
her hair dressed in the same style in whibla
she wore it in America, with a half wreath
of white flowers mixed with foliage at the
sides. A boquet of similar flowers adorned
the corsage, and the general appearance of
the toilette was elegant and, at the same
time, simple.”

as to command assent without even an efr

We are indebted to our friend, X. M. P3lltt•
of Marietta, Ohio, for the f ollowing grtklill
ic sketch. We are assured that the, facts.
transpired substantially as narrated: „.
Methodist clergynian 'who luta -been
;laboring in this vicinity, was not long'sinee
ipreaching to his people on tiemiens
j power of the Apostles over i Fhe &Maniac
spirits of'their day.. As he was pursuing,
his theme, the audience were suddenly
startled. by a voice from some one in the
congregation demanding, in a half quern
' lous, half authoritative tone, ' , Why do'ut
preachers do such things now a days r In
an instant every ea g in the house was turn
ed upon the indivianal who had the effron
tery thus to invade the sacredness of the

"The speaker paused for a moment, and
fixed his penetrating gaze full upon the
dice of the questioner. There was an in
terval of intense silence, broken at last by
the speaker in resuming his subject. He j
had not proceeded far with his remarks be
fore he was again interrupted by the same
impertinent inquiry. Again he paused for
a time, and again resumed his subject.—
Not content with a silent rebuke, our re- I
doubtable questioner demanded again; , Why
don't the preachers do such things now a
days V and curling his lips with a sneer of
self-complacency, drew himself up pomp
ously in his seat.
"Our reverend friend (who, by the way,
is a young man of great muscular power,)
calmly left the desk and walked deliber
ately to the pew where the interrogator sat
and fastening one hand firmly upon the col
lar of his coat, the other on the waist-band
of hbk , unmentionables,' lifted him square
out of the seat and bore him down the
aisle to the entrance. Pausing for a mo
ment there, he turned his eyes upon his
audience, and in a clear, full voice, said :
'And they cast'out the devil in the form
of a distiller,' and suiting the action to the
word, out won t' the knight of the mash-tub,
a la leap frog fashion, into the street.
~T he good. pastor quietly returned to his
desk and completed his discourse. After
closing the services, as he was passing out
of the church the out-cast distiller, with an
officer of the law, escorted our clerical
friend to the office of a magistrate, to an
swer for an assault upon the person of said
distiller. After hearing the case the Mag
istrate dismissed the clergyman, and after
roundly 'reprimanding the complainant,
fined him for molesting the service of the
sanctuary.
"Since• that day we believe he has nev
er for a moment doubted the power of the
Methodist preachers to cast out devils, at
least within the limits of the Ohio Confer
ence.”—Binghantton (N. Y.) Standard.
LCD "Slocum, how is it to-day—can you
take that note up ?"
"I'm sorry to say I can't—never was so
cramped in my life."
"By the way, you are always cramped—
are you not ?"
"I'm sorry to say, I am ; and yet there
is a natural cause for it."
"And what is that?"
'aWhy, I was weaned on green apples
and water-melons."
We regret to say that Mr. Jayeocks
could not see the force of this sort of reas
oning, and the next day presented Slocum
with a piece of paper, on which was an ex
aggerated wafer, surmounted with an
American eagle, bearing in his claws eight
darts and a thunderbolt. What this in
indicates we cannot say. Probably that
Slocum _must "dart" around and raise the
money, or else close his shop and ccbolt"
himself. We wit} enquire and find out."
THE NEW ASTAGE LAw.--We give the fol
lowing synopsis of the new postage law passed,
by the Thirty-third Congress, which is to go
into effect from and after the Ist of April :
`Under this law all single; letters mailed for
any distance not exceeding three thousand li
miles are to pay three cents, and fin• any dis
tance, exceeding three thousand miles ten
cents ; Half an ounce in weight will consti
tute a single letter; and double, treble, .and
quitdruple•letters to be charged in the same
proportion. All letters must be pre-paid, ex
cept auch as are to or from a foreign country,
or those addressed to the officers of the Gov
ernment un official business. ' After the first
of January next the Postmasters are to affix
stamps upon all pre-paid letters upon which
none are placed by the writers. A registra
tion of valuable letters is required to be made
upon, the payment of a fee of five cents in addi
tion-to the pre-paid postage, but the Govern
ment will not be responsible for the loss of
any registered letter or packet. The franking
privilege is to remain as heretofore. Selling
poipage stamps for a larger sum than their
marked value is to be punished, as a misde
meanor. ,
