I think in every quiet season now,
Still do these waters roll, and leap, and rop.r
.And tumble, all day long;
Still are the rainbows spanning them
A hundred feet below. •
Still when the sun is on them, do they shine
And glow like. molten gold.
Still when the day is gloomy do they fall
Like snow, or seem to crumble away,
Like the front of a great chalk cliff,
Or roll adown the rook like dense white smoke
But always does this mighty stream appear
To die as it comes down.
And always from the unfathomable grave
Arises that tremendous ghost of spray
And mist which is never laid:
Which has haunted this place
With the same dread solemnity,
Since darkness brooded on the deep,
And that first flood before the Deluge—Light,
Came rushing on. Creation at the word of God.
To any one who reads this we need not say
that but three lines in it vary at all from the
closest requisitions of an iambic movement.
The measure is precisely of the kind which Mr.
Southey so often Used. For the reader's con
venience, we copy from Thalaba his well remem
bered lines on Night, as an instance :
"Row beautiful is Night!
A dewy freshness fills the silent air,
No mist obscures, nor cloud, nor speck, nor
stain
Breaks the serene of heaven.
In full orbed glory yonder Moon divine
Rolls through the dark blue depths.
Beneath hor steady ray
The desert circle spreads,
Like the round ocean, girdled with the sky. '
Dow beautiful is Night!"
TIIF KECKLEY•LINCOLN` BOOK.
"Behind the Scenes 71
The following extracts from this curious
book refer to many of the most interesting in
cidents of the five years' life in the White
House,which the authoress,,Mrs. Keckley,de
scribes:
THE DEATrr OF LITTLE VS ILLIE
Finding that Willie continued to grow
worse, Mrs. Lincoln determined to withdraw
her cards of invitation and postpone the re
ception. Mr. Lincoln thought that the cards
had better not be withdrawn. At least he ad
vised that the doctor be consulted before any
steps were taken. Accordingly Dr. Stone
was called in. He pronounced Willie better,
and said that there was every reason for as
early recovery. He thought, since the
invitations had been issued, it would
be best to go on with the reception. Willie,
he insisted, was in no immediate danger.
Mrs. Lincoln was guided by these counsels
and no postponement was announced. Oa
the evening of the reception Willie was sul
dardy taken worse. His mother sat by hi=
bedside a long while, holding his fever.sh
hand in her own, and watching his lab )re ._1
breathing. The doctor claimed there was
cause for alarm. I arranged Mrs. Linclla'
hair, then assisted her to dress. Her dress
was,white satin, trimmed with black lace.
The trail was very long, and as she swept
through the room Mr: Lincoln was standing
with his back to the fire, his hands behind
him and his eyes on the carpet. His face
wore a thoughtful, solemn look. The rust
ling of the satin dress attracted his attention.
He looked at it a few moments; then in his
quaint, quiet way remarked :
"Whew' our cat has a long tail to-night."
Mrs. Lincoln did not reply. The Presi
dent added:
"Mother, it is my opinion if some of that
tail was nearer the head it would be in better
style," and he glanced at her bare arms and
neck. She had a beautiful neck and arm.
and low dresses were becoming to her. She
turned away with a look of offended dignity,
• and presently took the President's arm and
both went down stairs to their guests, leaving
me alone with the sick boy.
The reception was a large and brilliant ene,
and the rich notes of the Marine Band, in the
apartments below came to the sick room in
soft, subdued murmurs, like the wild, faint
Aobbing of far-off spirits., Some of the
young people had suggested dancing, but Mr.
.Lincoln met the suggestion with an erriphatic
veto. The brilliance of the scene could not
dispel the sadness that rested upon the face of
Mrs. Lincoln. During the evening she came
up stairs several times and stood by the bed
aide of the suffering boy. She loved him with
a mother's heart and her anxiety was great.
The night passed slowly : morning came,
and Willie was worse. He lingered a few
days and died. God called the beautiful spirit
home, and the house of joy was turned into
the house of mourning. I was worn out
with watching and was not in the room when
Willie died, but was immediately sent, for. I
assisted in washing him and dressing him,
and then laid him on the bed, when Mr. Lin
coln came in. I never saw a matt so bowed
down with grief. He came to the bed, lifted
the cover from*the face of his child, gazed at
it long and earnestly, murmuring, "My poor
bey, he was too good for this earii. God has
called him home. I know that he is much
better off in Heaven, but then we loved him
so. It is hard, hard to have him die"
Great sobs choked his utterance. He buried
his head in his hands, and his tall frame was
convulsed with emotion. I stood at the foot
of. the bed, my eyes full of tears, looking
at the man in silent; awestricken wonder.
His, grief unnerved him, and made him a
weak, passive child. I did not dream that
his pigged nature could be so moved. I shall

been twined, and now that he was dressed
for the tomb, it was like tearing the tendrils
out of the heart by their roots. Willie: she
often said, if spared by Providence, would be
the hope and stay of her old age. But Provi
dence had not spared him. The light faded
from his eyes and the death-dew had gath
ered on his brow. _ .
In one of her paroxysms of grief the Presi
dent kindly bent over his wife. took her by
the arm and gently led her to the window.
With a stately, solemn gesture, he pointed to
the lunatic asylum.
"Mother, do you see that large white
building on the hill yonder ? Try and control
your grief, melt will drive you mad, and we
may have to send you there."
HOW THE DEBTS WERE CONTRACTED. ,
Mrs. Lincoln was extremely anxious, that
her husband should be re-elected President of
the United States. In endeavoring to make
a display becoming her exalted position she
had to incur many expenses. Mr. Lincoln's
salary was inadequate to meet them aad she
was forced to run in debt, hoping that good
fortune would favor her and enable her to
extricate herself from an embarrassing situa
tion. P 7773
"What do you think about the election,
'Lizabeth?" she said to me one morning.
"I think that Mr. Lincoln will remain in
the White House four years longer," I replied,
looking up from my work.
"What makes you think so? Somehow I
have learned to fear that he will be de
feated."
"Because be has been tried and has proved
faithful to the best interests of the country.
The people of the North recognize in him an
honest man, and they are willing to confide
in him,at least until the war has been brought
to a close. So Mr. Lincoln is certain to be
re-elected. He represents a principle, and to
maintain this principle the loyal people of the
loyal States will vote for him, even if he had
so merits to commend him."
"Your view is a plausible one, 'Lizabeth,
and your confidence gives me new hope. If
he should be defeated, I do not knew what
would become of us all. To me, to him,
there is mere at stake in this election than he
dreams Of."
"What can you mean, Mrs. Lincoln? I do
not comprehend."
"Simply this:—l have contracted large
debts, of which he knows nothing, and which
he will be unable to pay if he is defeated."
"What are your debts, Mrs. Lincoln?"
"They consist chiefly of store bills. I owe
altogether about $27,000; the principal por
tion at Stewart's in New York. You under
stand, 'Lizabeth,that Mr. Lincoln has but lit
tle idea of the expense of a woman's ward
robe. Ile glances at my rich dresses, and is
happy in the belief that the few hundred dol
lars that I obtain from him will supply all
my wants. I must dress in costly materials.
To keep up appearances I must have money
—more than Mr. Lincoln can spare for me.
He is too hcnest to make a penny outside of
his salary; consequently I had, and still have
no alternative but to run in debt."
"And Mr. Lincoln does not even suspect
how much you owe ?"
"God, no !"—this was a favorite expression
of hers—"and I would not have hitu suspect.
if he knew that his wife was involved to the
extent that she is the knowledge would drive
him mad. If he is re-elected I can keep him
in ignorance of my affairs; but if he is de
feated, then the bills will be sent in and he
will-know all ;" and something like a hysteri
cal sob escaped her.
When in one of these excited moods she
would fiercely exclaim :
"The republican politicians must ply my
debts. Hundieds of them are getting im
mensely rich off the patronage of my hus
band, and it is but fair that they should help
me out of my embarrassment. I will make a
demand of them, and when I tell them the
facts they cannot refuse to advance whatever
money I requife."
THE FEENITUEE OF TIIE WHITE 11.01.151,
For five weeks Mrs. Lincoln was confined
to her room. Packing afforded quite a relief',
as it an closely occupied us that we had not
much time for lamentation.
Letters c f condolence were received from
all Farts of the country,aud even from foreign
potentates, but Mr. Andrew Johnson, the
successor of Mr. Lincoln, never called on the
idow: or even so much as wrote a line eX
ples.irg sympathy for her • grief and the loss
of her husband. Robert called on him one
day to tell him that his • mother would turn
tl,e White House over to him in a few days,
at d he never even so much as inquired after
their welfare. Mrs. Lincoln firmly believes
that Mr. Johnson was concerned in the as
sassination plot.
In packing, Mrs. Lincoln gave away every
thing intimately connected with the Presi
dent, as she said that she could not bear to be
lemind«l of the past. The articles were given
to those who were regarded, as the warmest
of Mr. Lincoln's admirers. All of the pres
ents passed through my hands. The dress
Mrs. Lincoln wore on the night of the assas
sination was given to Mrs. blade, the wife of
an old and faithful messenger. The cloak,
stained with the President's blood, was given
to me, as also was the bonnet worn on the
same memorable night. Afterwards I received
the comb and brush that Mr. Lincoln used
dining his residence at the White House.
With this same comb and brush I had often
combed his head. When almost ready to go
down to a reception he would turn to me
with a quizzical look: "Well, Madam Eliza
beth, will you brush my bristles down to
night:
There was much surprise when Mrs. Lin
coln left the White House as to what her
or sixty boxes, not to count her seores of fifty
trunks,could contain. Had the government not
been so liberal in furnishing the boxes it is
possible that there would have been less
demand* for so much transportation. The
boxes were loosely packed,and many of them
with articles not worth carrying away. Mrs.
Lincoln had a passion for hoarding old things,
believing, with Toodles, that they were
"handy to have about the house."
The bonnets that she brought with her
from Springfield, in addition to every one
purchased during her residence in Washing
ton, were packed in the boxes and transport.
ed to Chicago. She remarked that she might
find use for the material some day, and it was
prudent to look to the future. I am sorry to
say that Mrs. Lincoln's foresight in regard to
the future was only donfined to cast-01l cloth
ing, as she owed at the time of the President's
death different store bills amounting to
970,000. Mr. Lincoln knew nothing of these
bills, and the only happy feature of his assas
sination was that he died in ignorance of
them. Had lie known to what extent his wife
was involved the fact would have embittered
the only pleasant moments of his life. I dis
close this secret in regard to Mrs. Lincoln's
di hts, in order to explain why she should
subsequently have labored under pecuniary
. embarrassment. •

grandson of the great literary and dramatic critic,
who was the intimate friend of Charles Lamb
and S. T. Coleridge, has lately published, in one
large Svo. volume, "A Bibliography of the
Popular Poetical and Dramatic Literature of
England previous to 1ti60." The "London and
County RevieW," the first number of which has
lately appeared in London, is a sixpenny
monthly magazine, which is to treat
of Science, Natural History, Letters, Po
lities, Trade, and Amusement. Mr. Richard
Morris, of the Early English Text
Society, is preparing an edition of Shakespeare's
"Henry the Fourth,'with grammatical and ety
mological rules for the use of student. Mr.
Henry Green, MLA., has lately published "Shake
speare and 'the Emblem Writers of his Age," a
curious volume, with illustrations from the orig
inal woodcuts and engravings. Mr. Green should
be able to show how far Shakespeare has bor
rowed from the emblem-writers. And also, if
Mr. Green be a reader, how far some of the latter
have borrowed from him, as, .for instance,
Withey and Quarles. Messrs. J. Forbes Watson
and John ". William Kay will soon
issue in London "The People of
India," a series ofphotograph illustrations of the
races and tribes of Hindostan. This work, which
is said to be superb, was prepared some time
since, under the direction of the government of
India, for the use of .the English government,
and it is only now that the Secretary of State for
• India has authorized an edition for the geeeral
public. It will be published in Instalments at

FANNY FERN has been reconstructiuz a
Rebel. It seems that Iklr. Parton (her hus
band) has an amanuensis who served in the
Confederate army, a young gentleman of fine
manners and accomplishments. Now Fanny
has hes,id 7 of sundry such American citizens
refusing to walk under the American flag.
So she fastened the loyal bunting over the
door of Mr. Parton's writing room,whereby
the amanuensis could neither get in or out
without passing under it. Appreciating the
joke, the Rebel pinned on the flag a pencilled
slip, to the effect that "lovely woman's wit
bad done what five years of war could
not do : but that though his body passed
under, his soul soared above." Next morn
ing Fanny placed in the entry, by the side
of the bat rack, a bust of General Butler, so
that the gentleman rebel could not fail to take
off his hat to it. Whereupon the amanuensis
left on the pedestal a memorandum intimating
that "persons curious to see Butler's face as
it appeared there, might have seen his back
as it appeared at BetheL" During the after
noon Fanny set a bottle of "Gettysburg
Water" by the statue, with the words "Good
for bad blood and secession. Butler was not
at Bethel, according to his plographer, James
Parton. Therefore his back could not have
been there. But, if it had been, be never
would have covered it with his wife's petti

i►larder Trials mid Alleged Aliiidere
in High 1411 re—An Aristocratic Fele
indicted and Convictod—llletery-ol
the Case and Sentence of the Culprit.
VIENNA, March 16, 1868:—When a ,noble
,man commits murder and the act is brought
home to him we have kpause odhlore. The
Earl Ferrers and the Due de Praslin have no
other title to their places in histcpy, than that
of famous murderers. A case Ih'pehding here
and in Munich—namely,thatof the poisoning
of the Countess Chorinsky by the 13aroness
Julie Von Ebergenyl, with the connivance
and aid of the former's husband and the lat
ter's intended, the Count Chorinsky—which
will certainly takeits . pla,ccealcongside of 'the
Ferrers and Praslira crimes. Julie Von Eber
genyi's trial is expected to take place in this
city next month, and early after the conclu
sion of that cage Count Chorinsky will be
tried in Munich, where he now lies in
prison.
In the meantime another aristocratic mur
der case has been brought to trial in Ora,ow,
and after a nrolong,ed heeling has ended in the
conviction of the accused: This cese,the de
tails of which lam about to give you, has
created an immense sensation, not only in Cra
cow and Galicia,but in the kingdom of Poland
also, and a gum; of, each day's proceedings
has even found its way into the leading papers
of this city.
Chevalier Mirezyslaus von Korytowski is a
etion of one of the historical families of Po
land. Some of his progenitors were the com
rades of Pulaski in the first Polish war of
independence (17); -\7:1,). His father, Leon
Korytoweki, is a counsellor of appeals in Cra
cow. The culprit himself is twenty-six years
old.
Korytowaki, re and 7/21 , e, occupied a
'tat," or a suite of apartments, in a certain
house in Cracow. One of these rooms they
bad let to an aged widow, named Agnes
Zychovrier. Widow Zychowicz, previous to
her murder, was on the eve of leaving the
house and of moving into another quarter of
the town. Mirezyslaus slept in the adjoining
room to the , widow's, on v. sofa, and a door
led from his room into the latter's, The
widow Z. was an extremely eConomical add
even miserly woman. She wasgenerally be
lieved to be very well to do. She had in
herited from a brother a considerable
amount of property, which she had in
vested partly in Austrian and partly
in Russian securities. So the murdered
woman had property and was unprotected.
The murderer hatl, even as a schoolboy, been
noted for his idleness and indisposition to fol
low any settled pursuit. At the age of twenty
be was, therefore,good for nothing. For some
years he loafed about, "coshering' upon one
or other of his relations. Finding that
his- relations were getting tired of
him, he hit upon the happy thought of look
ing out for a good match. Hereupon he paid
his addresses to'3llle. Bronislawa
the daughter of a rich landed proprietor. The
young lady was smitten: her mother
satisfied. 7,1. Constantine Kozminski, how
ever, was, naturally enough, ne , „t favorable
to the suitor, and informed him that for the
present he (the father ) could not give consent
to the marriage, because the chevalier had no
settled substance, and was, in fact, nothing
better than a chevalier (Tine/eerie. What
was the chevalier to do ? He hit upon anoth
er happy thought. That was to buy a heavi
ly mortgaged estate, which was situate in the
kingdom of Poland, and thus hold himself
out to the world at large, and to M. lioznain
ski in, particular, as an estated gentleman:.
The estate in question was valued at 22,500
roubles, bit as the charges upon it amounted
to 22,047 roubles he was required to pay only
o;oo roubles on, the completion , of t the pur
chase, which i comparatively, infra he
managed to raise.
But this appearance of wealth did not last
long. The chevalier could not pay the in
terest on the mortgages and the mort
gagees, , entered into ~,pease ion
the , , estatb. When they ~ •ettor-lets they
discovered that the new purchaser had al
ready sold the emblements, or growing crops,
that he had contracted other debts and that
be had not delivered some wheat which he
bad already, sold to some merchants and re
ceived part payment for. Thuelhe chevalier
was once more thrown on his back, and
while in this position he hit upon the evil and
fatal idea of possessing himself of the property,
of his parents' aged tenant. With this he
could win his bride.
Cherishing this design in his heart he paid
a visit to his parents m last September and
slept in the place I have already mentioned.
He procured a picklock, and, for • two nights
before the murder entered the room of the
widow during the night, opened and rum
-ranged her drawers, but found nothing. ,The
widow, heard that somebody was inter room
and knew what the intruder wanted, but was
afraid to cry out for fear of being murdered.
She mada this statement on the afterooon of
the 2d of October t last year, to, one of her
friends'whom .she visited on that day, and
added the ominous presentment that she
feared she would never leave her then resi
dence alive. The tollowing night, the bight
of the 2d,and 3d October, she was found dead
in her bed with her 'throat cut.
In the bed .and clothing of the murdered
one was found the sum of •25,000 A.ustrian
florins, partly in paper money, partly in
securities. According to the inventory found
in het room eleven Polish land debentures,
valued at 7no roubles in the'aggregate, were
missing. •
Ten out of these eleven debentures were on
the following' day discovered in Mirczylaus
room, tacl.r. up the chimney. The police
funotiwaries who examined the morn when
the alarm was given swore that the murderer
could have entered neither by way of the
window nor of the chimney, but could only
bare come in through: the apartments of the
Kozminskis. Nobody suspected the parents.
They enjoyed an unblemished character.
Everybody suspected the son! Moreover,
the son gave the alarm at three o'clock in the
morning of the 3d and gave it in a very
singular manner. He proceeded to awake
the servants and told them that he had heard
footatepa.moving about in the widow's room,
and thathe bad 'a present:silent that all was
not right there.
The trial began in the latter end of 11.3 t
month, lasted sixteen days and has just been
concluded: It was attended by the nobility,
the jurists arid officials of the neighborhood
as well as by the gentry from various
parts of Poland, who came to Cracow
expressly to attend the trial, Admission to
the court could only be procured by • means
of cards.
On the twelfth day Mlle. Bronislawa was
examined. She avowed that she dearly loved
the culprit. When at one time her father
opposed the marriage she expressed the de
termination to make away with herself. Of
her intended's arrest she was made gradually
aware by her father and her piiin at the news
was intiritely great. Immediately thereupon
she sent back to her intended's rnotliet the
ring be bad given her, and demanded that
the ring which she had given to him should
be banded over to a charitable institution.
On the sixteenth day the court gave juda
ment and decided' that the circumstantial
evidence was sufficient to condemn the ac
cused. The Attorney-General demanded that
thepunishment of imprisoment for life should
beinflicted.
The court adjudged a sentence of eighteen
years' imprisonment with hard labar, and the
loss of .his rank. Strange to say, , the court
considered that his tender age (at the time of
the murder over twenty-five years of age) was
palliating circumstance. I mention this fact
without comment.
