TOASTS AND SENTIMENTS.
Origin of the Custom of Drinking
klealtits—Toasts—Wit—Tlie Ladies.
"Heahim" in honor of mortals came to us
from abroad. The first given . in Britain was
given by a lady. It was the "Health of the
King;" and mischief came of it. The lady
was Rowena, daughter .of Hengist. That
Saxon ally of the British King Vortigern
entertained at a banquet the monarch whom
Ile intended first to make his. son-in-law and
Then to destroy. After dinner the ladies
averififitaitteda . custom which - has not yet
died out 'on occasions of public festivity—
and Rowena was at the head. of them. She
carried aloft a capacious goblet of wine, and
approaching the dazzled and delighted king,
she said, with a courteous reverence, "Lord
King,' drink your health." This was said
in Saxon, and Vortigern shook his head, to
ilnply that he- had not been taught Saxon,
and was very sorry for it. He looked in
quiringly at his interpreter, and that oftemi
translated . the lady's words. "Bat this ren
dered Vortigern little the to Rowena
'stood silently gulag at him, cup in hand;
and he found himself ,in entirely new „cir
cumstance, and in dreadfurwant of a mas
ter of ceremonies.. "What ought I to do ?"
-he asked of the interpreter; and the latter
replied, "As the lady has offered to drink
your health, saying, Wacht heil ?' you
should bid her (pall the wine, saying, Trine
hell !" And \ ortigern shaped his British
- mouth to the utterance of the foreign idiom,
and Rowena smiled so exquisitely at his un
couth accent, before she kissed the brim of
the cap, that the king lost head and heart,
and speedily became double drunk, with love
and wine. Thus wasn drinking of healtlis
brought into Britain, and under such distin
guished patronage that it became a universal
fashion. And it had a pretty circumstance
attached to it, which in later degenerate days
went out with the fashion itself. The gallant
Vortigern, when be returned the Saxon lady's
compliment, and took the cup to drink, not
only quaffed it to her health., but, before he
did so, kissed her rose-tinted lips with such
fervor that the custom of giving health was
at once firmly established, and when a lady
drank to a gentleman he not only pledged her
with the formula of ~ ` ,`Drinc hell," but sa
luted her lips!
The wickedness of man brought about an
unwelcome change in the custom. We all
remember the unpleasant story, how the
young King Edward the Martyr drank from
a bowl of wine as he sat on his horse at the
gate of code Castle, and how, while he was
drinking, he was stabbed in the back by a
murderer hired by the young King's step
mother Eltrida. From that time • pledging
no longer implied kissing, even when , the
health was given by a lady. When a man
then drank, his neighbor "pledged" him,
that is, undertook neither to stab him himself
nor to allow such an act to be committed by
another.
The old forms of pledging, however, did
not die out readily, nor are they altogether
extinct. It was long the custom at Queen's
College, Oxford, when a Fellow drank, for
the scholar who waited on him to place his
two thumbs on the table. This was also an
ancient - German custom. As long as the
drinker saw the two thumbs- on the table
he was quite sure that the hands they
. belonged to could not be lifted against his
own life.
Mr. Adams, at a late dinner of the "Geo
graphieals," asked if healths and speaking to
them were older than" the Anglo-Saxon.
Doubtless... In the pictorial illustrations of
Egyptian life it is seen that the guests rose to
- challenge each other to drink, proposed
healths, and inflicted speeches on the ears of
vexed listeners. In short, all things come
directly or indirectly from the East, always
excepting the term Tormi itself, and also the
shibboleth of "Hip! hip! hip!" by whiqh
toasts ar ehonored, as "healths" were, long
before them. The cry is said to have been
taken to and not brought from the East. To
ordinary non-observant and non-inquiring
' persons, the triple cry is only a sort of respi
ratory preparation for the thundering "Hur
rah" which follows: but arebteologists assert
that we get hip, hip, hip, from the Crusades
—with a modification.. The letters H. E. P.,
• we are told, were on the sacred banners of
the invaders, carrying with them the meaning
"Ilierostdyma est perdita" (JeratoWitin i'

When Jerusalem first presented the view of
its towers to the exulting - .eyes of the sot
diery, they pointed witii — llleit — swerds and
lances to their banners, and frantically
screamed "'Wept - 141 - tep!" - - `capping the `cry
with a savage "Hurrah!" Such is the tradi-
lion, but it is far from satisfactory; and even
if it be not true, it is hardly of the happy
humor of true-seeming stories.
After Rufus, there were no such drinking
bouts as his till James's time. The greatest
men of that court and time drank healths
with much solemnity. The (pager, as he
rose with the cup in his hand, doffed his cap,
and on naming the personage in whose honor
he was. about to drink,he looked at his neigh
bor, who pledged ,himself to drink next, and
who did sq by doffing his cap, kisSing his
hand; and bowing. Then he Ivho held, the
cup drained it to the last drop, and made. it
ring to show that it was empty. The pledger
had to go through the same ceremony, which
extended to the whole company and then re-'
commenced.
Prynne, in 1628, published a pamphlet to
prove "the drinking and pledging of health's
to be sinful and unlawful unto Christians."
The gentle Herbert, too, a little later,
urgently counselled the drinkers of healths to
stay at the third cup ; that is, not to drink it,
the which doing is to be, "a beast in
courtesy." Chief Justice Hale. however,
would not sanction his grandsons going even
so far as a couple of healths. "I will not
have you begin or pledge any health," he
says, adding, after much more to the same
purpose, that if they follow the advice they
will bless their grandfather's memory.
In the Protector's time they dropped a
crumb into their mouths, arid, raisin° . b the
glass to their lips, said, "May the Lord send
this crumb well down:" Whitlock tells of
four or five Berkshire royalists who, in their
cups, cut small scollops from their own flesh,,
and drank Charles's health in the blood tha
flowed from the mutilated parts. The Puri
tam, Winthropoylwn he, founded Boston, in
America, prohibited "healths" as a criminal
offence.
When Charles IL got his own again, loyal
men drank the king's health on their knees—
a form known to King James's days, and
called in the slang of the period "knighting."
Of this loyal drinking there ensued much
quarreling, and some spilling of blood.
The matter became so serious that Charles
endeavored to remedy it by royal proclama
tion, in which the King expressed—"our
'dislike of those who, under pretence of affec
tion, to us and our service, assume to them
selves a liberty of reviling, threatening and
reproaching others. There are likewise an
other sort of men whom," says Charles, "we
have heard •much, and are . sutliniently
ashamed, who'spend their lives in taverns,
tippling-houses and debauches, giving . no other
evidence of their aflection to us but in drink , '
in our health." _
There is a pretty story of a politicalol toast
in the reign of William lIL, which runs
thus. The French, German, and English
Ambassadors were dining together. Toe first
availed himself of an after-dinner opportu
nity to propose "The Rising Sun," in • honor
of his Master, who bore such device, with
"no pluribus impar" for his modest motto.
Thereupon the German envoy gave "The '
Moon." This being done, the English repre
sentative solemnly proposed "Joshua, the son
of Nun, who made both sun and moon to
stand still!" This story ' however, neat as it
is, is without authority; anachronisms, in
the original, prove that it is fictitious.
It is scarcely necessary to 'say that the la
dies were honored long before the period of.
"toasts" . properanived. - The amorous young -
gentlemen of Elizabeth's days, as each sped
the cup with the name of his mistress to fur
ther it, pricked their arm with a dagger, and
wrote their mistresses' names, in their own
WOO, on the table.
In course of time came the "reigning
toasts," and.noble ladies felt flattered at know
ing they were the "toasts, of the town."
blabs engraved th'ets names on the club
glasses, and the first pt:?k , 'of the day added a
tribute of laudatory verse. There came a
time, however, when men lad more refine
ment, and would not give up to the tipsy salu
tations of "health-drinkers" the natrisA of the
true and modest mistresses of their hearts.
The lover who was a gentleman, and yet who
was also a "good fellow," always kept his
gentility "before him, and his nirstress's mane
to himself. An illustration of , this is far )rded
us through Mr. John Brued's 'having luckily
inserted, in his admirable edition ofCo.,vper,
that writer's "Early Ppeins.." In one of'
these, "The Symptoms4d Love," *ritten to
"Delia," but really addressed to the author's
early and only love, his cousin Theodora, are
the following lines
"And lastly, when summoned to drink to my
flame,
Let her guess why I never once mention her
name,
Though herself and the woman I love are the
same."
There was fine and generous delicacy and
great readiness of wit in Goerge 11. when,
during one of his absences abroad, on being
asked if . he would object to a toast which
wished health to the Pretender, lie replied
that he would readily drink to the health of
all unfortunate princes.
If it be true that Pitt, at Kidderminster,
gave a toast in compliment to the carpet
manufacturers, it cannot be said , that there
was much outlay of brains in the making of
it. "May the trade of Kidderminster," said
Pitt, "be — trampled under foot by all the
world!" If this may be simply called "neat,"
in that term lies as much praise as the occa
sion warrants. It is weak, compared with
the more audacious - toast, - freighted with
double meaning, and which has been vari
ously attributed to Smeaton, to Erskine, and
some others. This after-dinner trade senti
ment was delivered in this form : "Dam the
canals, sink the coal-pits, blast the minerals,
consume the manulitetures, disperse the com
merce of Great Britain and Ireland !"—Co'rn
hill Magazine.
Kearney's Chateau and COC olft flail
In driving about Newark, N. J., we pass
italnany beauties in review, and note new
points of interest. We find that the Passaic
river has, on its lovely shores, many beauti
ful villas, which might fairly ,rival the finest
the storied Hudson has to show. One of the
most interesting of these, both by its charac
ter and from the fact that it was lately the
residence of one . : , of our nation's brave
defenders, is the fine chateau known as the
Kearney Place. The architecture of this
building, though peculiarly French, is still of
no distinct order. It is of red brick, with an
intermingling of brown stone, erratic and ec
centric, like the man who it, but also
tasteful like:filth. It has 'no' 60, ' sides alike.
General Kearney ,bore for it a -Veculiar affec
tion. While in. France. he was "continually
referring to it. rHislast letters from the army
contained' au , "order for photographing the
house On everysi..olo, and' sending him the
pictures. They arrived after his death. The
chateau stands in a forest. The grounds are
rough and untamed; Kearney cared little for
the surroundinga of his house. The most
peculiar feature of the chateau is the entrance
hall, a vast apartment, occupying nearly as
-much space as all the other rooms of the first
floor, which consist of three drawing-rooms;
a dining-parlor, conservatory, offices, etc.
This hull is paved with black and white
marble, and its ceiling is nctbing

Pandora, standing in a tow-window of the
dining-parlor is bathed in a glorious effulgence
of rose-color through the agency of a pink
glass inserted at the top of the window. The
chateau is furnished with almost regal splen
dor. Yellow satin in hangings, fauteuils,and
other articles of use and ornament goldens
the house in profusion. What scenes.of feast
ing and carousing have been witnessed within
these walls 'many an artist now living can tell.
General Kearney was fond of surroutalingt
Himself With men and' women
liancy, and beauty, • and his hospitality tp
such was princely. But these walls echo no.
more to the voice Of merry-making. The
host sleeps in -a hero's grave ; the guests are
scattered.
On the opposite shore of the Passaic from
the Kearney chateau stands the ancient house
immortalized by Washington Irving in the
Salmagundi, • under the title of "Cockloft
Hall." In 1858 Mr. Irving, in a letter to W.
A. Whitehead, alluding to the "pleasing re
collections of early days, mid of social meet
ings at an old mansion on the banks of the
Passaic," expresses the opinion that "scarce
a trace remains" of the storied Cockloft
But Irving was mistaken. The house was
then standing, and is standing still, in good
preservation, being occupied as a residence
at this writing. Readers of 'Salmagundi will
remember good old Pindar Cockloft
and his promising scion, Jeremy
Cockloft, the Newark hosts of Launce
lot Langstaff. They will remember
the wonderful summer-house that old Pindar
erected, with its windows all looking inland.
and its back to the river, because its owner
wished to be the proprietor of the view; the
mysterious cellar that was under it and the
fish-pond that was near by—a fish-pond
blasted out'of the rock by old Cockloft be
eause he wished to fish on his own premises,
though the . free Passaic washed the edges of
his estate with its fin-peopled waters. Until
very recently, this old summer-house was
still standing, but its wood-work had fallen
sadly to decay; Mosses had gathered upon
its ancient sides, bugs and worms crawled
and bored, and irrepressible boys had scrib
bled and whittled here and there. In May
or June last, an avenue was opened- through
the Cocklofcdomain, and the summer-house
stood in the way. So it was torn down, but
was to be erected on an adjoining spot, .of the
same olffmaterial, a peculiar white sandstone,
and in the exact term it had in the day when
Thing's genial yoUng fade looked out of its
exclusive windows. The wood-work, con
sisting mainly of a quaint, round top, with
a point in the centre, is to be built anew in
the style of the old. It is a refined and gentle
spirit which animates the breast of him who
does this saving work for a relic around which
linger such kindly literary associations. Of
all Irving's works there are none more de
lightful than those embraced in Salmagundi,
and the most charming feature in them is the
presentation of the Cockloft family ..peduli
arities.—/Vorthern Monthly.
The Mexican correspondent of the New
Orleans Republican says, in a recent letter :
Within the last two days I have "done,"
the city of Vera Cruz thoroughly. Discuss
ing the non-changing character of our Ame-•
rican cities with an old friend in New Orleans
a few weeks ago, we came to the conclusion
that we had never seen . a finished city. If
you see the old judge, ytiin may say to him
that I have found it. It is Vera Cruz. An old
friend, with forty-five years ex,perience here,
declares that there has been no building
erected in the city all that time- a perhaps
not for fifty years before, The city is entirely
surrounded by a wail, an evely building
in it is built either of stone imported from
foreian lands or from coral daz from the sea.
And everyhouae is a castle—every mansion
a Spanish form. .& There are terraces almig
the tops of all the house~, gashed for riflemen,
and even the staircases and halls are designed_
to dispute the approach of the invader inch
by inch. I have not the time to-night to
write all the interesting things that might be
said about the ancient city, nor have .yon the
space to publish them. In olden times there
were many churches here, but all but oneare
in ruins. The cathedral alone is in running
condition. Twice I have attended morning
mass there and gazed with wonder on its ap
pointments and decorations. At the left of
the altar is the negro Jesus, its woolly head
surrounded with a golden crown made of
solid Mexican gold and silver, its loins covered
with a cloth woven of _silver, and its arms
andankles decorated with bracelets of. pre
cious stones. Only a few days previous- to
the recent surrender of thacity by the Lupe- •
rialists to the Liberals, this_ image was carted
through all the city streets under the escort
of chanting priests with silver banners and
boys swinging brasiers of incense, while the
pious and ignorant humbled themselves with
fear 'along the streets as it passed. But
even this did , not- avert the calamity,
It 'stands quietly again in its
place, "and will continue too, per
haps, until the priesthood makes another
"forced loan" of prayers to sustain some tot
tering expedition. Over the altar is the mo
r
nogram of Maximilian, upon whi h a pair of
cherubs are placing a golden rown. On a
sub-altar near the door, on th left as you
enter, and near a superb ma tie statue of
Minerva, is a handsome apron, upon which
is embroidered the same monogram, sur
mounted by the same imperial crown, around
which are perpetually burning tapers. Here
the masses are said for the repose of the soul
.of the late scion -of the Hapsburg house.
Passing by the score or more of gaudily
dressed wax Maries, one's attention is called
to images at the right of the altar, which
would be tiiken for-eherubs, but that they
are provided with the bows and arrows of
cupids!
The Gold Mines in the Tributaries of
the Southwest.
The Salt Lake Vedette of the 31st of July
has the following about the gold mines re
cently discovered on the headwaters of the
Sweetwater, in .L'ah;
"At last we ar enabled to give our distant
readers what we consider reliable news of the
character, extent and richness of the new
gold discoveries on the- heads of Strawberry
and Willow creeks, near the South Pass.
Our information has been derived from men
with whom we were acquainted in Idaho and
elsewhere, who would not 'scare' at a two
bit prospect, who can tell the difference be
tween a piece of quartz rock and a burned
brick, and who. can take in the 'lay' of a
country at one view, as well as some other
people. We know our informanti
know they are not given to Munchausen ro
mancing, and would not be apt to say any
thing about the new mines that they did not
sincerely believe.
"According to the statements of all those.
with whom we have talked, the existence of
numerous gold-bearing quartz-ledges- on the
north side of the Sweetwater, is a demon
strafed fact. The discovery claims of Lewis
Robinson, Terry and that company, are ex
ceedingly rich, so far as developed. With
. ordinary hand mortars, selected rock was
being pounded out at a yield of from $25 to
110 a day to the mortar, and even, as high as
14100. The existence of placer diggings has
not been discovered- to any great extent;.

are no miners or prospectors in there now.
The Indians command the situation.
"We have seen a great many specimens o

rich in gold. Parties also found silver quartz

and look to be well defined."
The Ocean Bottom.
Mr. Green, the famous diver, tells singu
lar stories of his adventures, when making
search in the deep' waters of the ocean. He
gives some new sketches of what he saw at
the "Silver Bank,".near Hayti: "The banks
of coral on which my livings were made
are about forty miles in length, and from ten
to twenty in breadth. On. this bank of coral
is presented to the diver one of the most
beautiful and sublime scenes the eye ever
beheld. The water varies from ten to one
hundred, feet in, depth, and so altr that the
diver can see from two to three htnidred fi?et
when submerged, with but little obstruction
to the sight.
"The bottom of the ocean, in many places,
is as smooth as a marble floor; in others'it is
studded with coral columns, from ten to one
hundred feet in height, and from one to
eighty feet in diameter. The tops of those
more lofty support a myriad of pyramidal
pendants,. each forming a myriad more, giving
reality to the imaginary abode of some water
nymph. In other places the pendants ,form
arch after arch, and, as the diver stands on
the bottom of the ocean, and .gazes throuzli
in the deep winding avenues, he finds that
they fill him with as sacred an awe as if he
Were in some old . cathedral Which had long
been buried beneath old ocean's wave. , Here
and there the coral extends even to the sur
face of the water, as if the loftier columns
were towers belonging to those stately tem
ples that are now in ruins.
"There were countless varieties of diminu
tive trees, shrubs, and plants in every crevice
of the corals where water had deposited the
earth. They were all of a faint hue,' owing
to. the pale light they received, although of
every shade, and entirely different froM
plants that I am familiar with that vegetate
upon dry land. One in particular attracted
my attention; it resembled a sea-fan of _ im
mense size, of variegated colors, and the most
brilliant hue. The fish which inhabit these
"Silver Banks" I fOund as different in kind as
the scenery was varied. They were - of all
forms,colors and sizes—from the symmetrical
goby to the glObelike sunfish; from those of
the dullest hue to the changeable dolphin;
from - the - spots - of - the leopard - to the hues of
the sunbeam; front the harmless minnow to
the voracious shark.
"Some bad heads like squirrels, others like
cats and does, some of small size resembled
the bull-terrier. Some darted through the
water like meteors,whileotherrs could scarcely
be seen to move.
"To enumerate and explain all the various
kinds of fish I beheld while diving on these
banks would, were I enough of a naturalist
so to do, require more than my limits allow,
for I - am convinced that most of the kinds of
fish which inhabit the tropical seas can be
found there. The sunfish, star fish, white
shark and blue or- shovel-nose shark were
often seen.
"There were also fish which resembled
plants, and remained as fixed in . their posi
tion as a shrub; the only power they pos
sessed was to open and shut when in danger.
Some of them resembled the rose when in
full bloom, and were of all hues. There
were the ribbon from four or five inches
to three feet in Idn,gth; their eyes are very
'large; and protrudeTlike those of a frog.
"Another fish is spitted likethe leopard,:
from three to` teriqbet in length. They build
: their houses like beavers, in which they
spawn, and the male or female watches the
egg until it hatches. I saw many specimenA
of the green turtle, some five feet long, which
I should think would weigh from 400 to 5 01)
pounds.!!
Discoveries in Palestine.
The secretary of the Palestine Exploration
Fund writes to the London Times:
"When the committee of the Palestine
Exploration Fund sent out their second ex
ploring party to the Holy Land in January
last, under the charge of Lieutenant. Charles
Warren, Royal Engineers, they gave him a
general instruction to make 'Jerusalem his
headquarters, and to excavate and investigate
in and about the city as much as possible.
especially in the sacred inclosure of the
Harem eslOSherit. The result is that
outside the walls of the inclosure he
has made a; discovery which is almost,
if not quite, as important as any that
have ever been made in or about Jerusa
lem, and which cannot fail to be the fruitful
parent of many more. He has found that
the south wall of the Hamm '
which rears.its
venerable face to a height of eighty feet
above the soil, descends also to no less a
depth than fifty-three feet below it—the solid
rock of Mount Moriah, on which it is founded
being covered with that immense thickness of
debris. Thus this wall must originally have
stood at a height of one hundred and thirty
feet above its foundations, fully justifying the
eXPressions of Josephus, who says concern
ing it that 'if any one looked :down from the
top of the battlements into the valley he
would be giddy, while his sight could not
reach to such an immense depth.'.
"The foundation and unworn masonry of
the buried portion may be expected to disclose
many a secret affecting these venerable walls,
secrets which Lieutenant Warren is now dili
gently: occupied in revealing. But this is
not all. He found two other things. He
found, first, that the eastern wall is prolonged ,
beyond the southern face, and continues in
the general direction of Siloam, with all the
solidity and antiquity which characterize its
known portions. now far it continues,or what
are its exact direction and extent, I expect
to hear shortly from Lieutenant Warren. He
Ibund, secondly, that beloyir the debris a
• second south wall exists, twenty feet distant
from the known one, and of_slighter work
' inanship. How far this Wall goes—what its
purpose may have been—its relations to the
`triple gateway' and the staircase which M.
de Smiley believed that he had discovered to
descend from the triple gateway—how this
discovery may affect the piers of the arches
below the southeast corner of the. inclosure,
are questions which I await further informa
tion to be able to answer.

The movement having for its object the forma
tion of a Shoemakers' Co;;perative Association
has so far progressed that the originators of it
are now engaged in considering a preamble and
constitution, setting forth specifically the pur
poses of the Association, and declaring by what
laws it shall be governed. At a - meeting last
night, after they had been read, the articles were
taken 111) to be considered. The constitution, as
read, contemplates an organization solely to
advance the interest of its members by enabling
them to divide the profits of its work among
themselves. The capital is to be supplied by the
sale of stock, the number of shares to which each
member is entitled being limited. No dividends
are to he declared before the lapse of two years
from the date of organization, it being designed
to have, by that means, a fair capital on hand to
meet any emergency that may arise. Some
change or modification may be made in the con
stitution as reported, when it has been duly con
sidered, but the main features will no doubt be
presiirvkl.

Ti lAL OF A FUSE.-A trial the Itietlia Fuse,
foi spherical projectiles, at Fart Mifflin, took
place hi the presence of a number of persons,
yesterday afternoon. The 15-inch smooth-bore
Rodman gun was used, and three spherical shells,
weighing 335 pounds each, were fired. All the
shells ricocheted across the river and exploded
on striking the earth on the New Jersey shore.
The results demonstrated that the Inertia Fuse
can be used for ricochet firing with perfectsue
cess. The fuse had been previously tested in the
light 12-pounder guns,and gave equal satisfaction
in that and other calibres less than rt-inch. The
fuse is the invention of Major W. S. Beebe, Li. S.
Ordnance Corps.

The Laud ok Tell.
A correspondent of the New York Buciting
Po.s.t, writing from Switzerland, speaks as
fellows of the great mythical hero, Tell:
What a gigantic frame for the pictures re
flected from the Claude Lorraine gloss of the
waters, and what a theatre for the simple but
great deeds that here had their origin! These
mountains, . these ravineg, - these glaciers are
the birthpace of the Switzer's independence
and liberty; and the home of William Tell,
traditional if not real hero of stories that have
gone sounding for centuries over the earth,
and that will sound on along the ages
for centuries to come. On yonder slender
plot of green, called the field of Milli, half
hidden by the trees, and smuggled away un
der the frowning precipices, was assembled
at midnight on the 7th. of November,. 1807,
Fhrst, Stauffacher and Melcthal, accompa
nied by ten of the true men of each of their
cantons, when they took the immortal oath
which forever emancipated Switzerland from
the tyranny of Austria. Thus, at' a time
when all Europe save a few towns lay groan
ing Or asleepunder the nightmare of feudal
ism a handthl of rude but honest peasants of
the hills drove the local oppressor from' their
ownsoil first, and afterwards Germany. the
banded chivalry of France and Gerinany.
Like Marathon, like Runnymede, like
Bunker Hill,. like Gettysburg.; it is a holy
vet, which must be forever dear to all lovers
of 3iberty throughout the world, and to which
I trust they will long continue to come a
pilgrims and worshippers. On the opposite
shore, a little further on, is Tell's Platt, ak it
_ll3 named, where a little chapel InarkesLthe
spot on, which ho sprang from the boat during'
the storm, when he was about to be con
veycd by GeiSler afid - Tils minions to prison.
It is ornamented with fresh frescoes, repre
senting scenes in 'his Tile, which are poor as
works of art—but nevertheless, full of deep
and tearful interest.
'A skeptical history, I know, which founds
itself only on written documents and contem
porary dates, is disposed to bring doubt Over
all this noble story of the deeds of William;
.Tell. It not only denies his performances,
but even his existence. The simple-minded
and immortal peasant has become,a myth,
and these sacred spots, which we BO: /OVO to ,
look at and venerate ; are resolved again into
common earth: But away with 'such' history!
It is of the sort which has already Wed to
blot Christ out of the record, and
which in • a few years would make
our Washington but the creature of
the mythopoic faculties, and the stories
of his greatness and goodness, and wisdom on
which our nation feeds and grows, but the
accretions of the Yankee imagination around
some primitive nobody. The Swiss, God bless
them! do not belieVe in that kind of history.
Tell is to them a grand and instructive reality.
Every year they come in crowds to lrtsi lonely
chapel by the lake-side to do homage to his
genius and his virtues; popular aquatic sports
recall his prowess and his skill as a boatman;
while songs and dances on the shore tell that
posterity is grateful and cherishes his
memory.
:411I1LER'S I)ItANIA
But even if the people of the mountains
were inclined to forget the name of their De
liverer, the beautiful and inspiriting poem of
the German poet Schiller would soon recall it
to their hearts. It was but justice, and a
grateful sense of service rendered, for the
Swiss people to inscribe, on the face of the
Mythenstein—one of the boldest of the rocky
.promontories _stretching ont-into She lake—ihs
letters of gold, and large enough to be read
from the distant opposite shore, "Ilia ,SW/-
go. mix, Prifyleich ,S'vhiller, die brrk«n
tom:, Isis)," or "To Schiller, the Singer of
'Fell, the Primitive Cantons of Switzer
land in !sot." By this grandest of monu
ments the hero anti the poet arc
indelibly associated, and every passer who
remembers the deeds of the one will recur
with delight to the drama of the other. Thus
a noble nation perpetuates its records in per
petuating% its gratitude. It does honor where
honor is most deserved. Thus, on the other
hand, does' literature fulfil one of its worthiest
missions; it commemorates the grand and
useful services of man to man; it Idealizes
and exalts the examples of high character in
the past t!tat might otherwise grow - dim; and
inspires in the'breasts of mortals a higher aim
for the future and a deep and earnest yearning
for the acaompliShment of a, better human
destinys.
Schiller's dratna, , which I am glad to have
retread here amid the veryscemz of its Welt
dents, and which scenes, though Schiller
never saw them; he has. most faithfully
studied and reproduced to tut witness% has
some defects as a work of , art. It is a trifle
too didactic in parts. Characters and inci
dents are introduced that break the flow of
the narrative, and that have really nothing to
do with the development of the catastrophe;
and, in fact, which are lugged in, like the ap
pearance of John,. the Parricide, after the
catastrophe has occurred. It- would seem as
if Schiller, not sufficiently convinced of
the justness and grandeur of his hero's con
duct, wanted to justify it by speeches
and comparisons, He could not enough
allow the acts to speak for themselves,thit
tried to Dive a reason or motive for everything.
Yet these arepmall , defects compared with its
transcendaremerits, the chief of' which -are
its rigindelity to the unsophistical.and ruts
tic manners of the forest, and its beautiful
conception of Tell 4; noble simplicity and
goodness. An inferior genius, with the same
materials, would have made - him a strutting
'sentimental hero, 'full of a grandiloquent
morality, and : surrounded by melodramatic
stage effects. But Schiller has represented
him otherwise: as a rude and homely,but geu-
Ile and true-hearted dweller among the Alps;
inured to toil, accustomed to the grand scenes
of nature, and unconsciously elevated by
hem: a good thiller, a kind, husband, an
honest neighbor; who has brooded over
wilt schemes of revenge, who entertains iv;
',wets of selfish ambition, and who is - only
stung by his own wrongs and the sight of a
general oppression, to relieve himself awl his
country from a tyrant and a foe. Unlike
most heroes, Tell is an infinitely lovable man
—silent but true: of iron nerves-and iron will,
buVordial; - tender;
.peaceable and affectintis
sw-who uccs his cwage his skill, his
mastery of the bow, not for vengettuce, nor, a
vainglorious show, but 'in a stern, self
prompted sense of duty and right.
How «Indian Outrages" are Some.
times itlematifetctured.
An Omaha correspondent of the Chicago.
Repub/ican writes concerning the recent at
tack on a train of the "Union Pacific Railway
as follows:
"The way the thing looks now, it does not
appear that the redskins did this business,
but 'the white-skins did. The scalping was
certainly not done by an Indian—so men who
understand the business say. A redskin
would not be apt to leave the scalp behind
—he would rather lose his own—that of itself'
is'a little evidence; but what makes it almost
sure is the fact that the scalp of the man who
is still living, and in a fair way to recover,
by the way—is not. taken in the Indian
style. An Indian is never known to take the
whole top of the head for his scalp, but
merely a couple of inches•from the crown of
the bead; and, besides, they generally take it
off neatly, while this was done in a very
bungling manner. Some persons—and .1
must say I am one of the number—think
there were no Indians concerned, but Omaha
and all these Western towns are bound to
have an Indian war if possible; and their
constant cry is extermination. Now, this
late attack serves first-rate to bring Eastern
people to their side of the question, provided
they keep under • a few of the fasts. Several
trains on Eastern and Southern railways have
been thrown from-the track before now,
the cars robbed, and sometimes destroyed..
This has been done inside of two years.
There being no Indians then to throw the
blame upon, it was at once charged rightly to
thieves, rowdies and highway robbers; and it
is very natural to suppose that the same class
of beings will do the same kind of work here,
if that class is here to do it. And it is not
denied,' but readily admitted, that towns such
se Julesburg, and others not so far away, are •
more than half peopled by roughs. Another •
thing: every time there is a rumor of •au In
dian attack anywhere, it is telegraphed East
as a fact;but when,a ew hours later,it proveF;
to be entirely untrue,.the telegraph does not
carry the correction."
