• ' art, mintare and Love.
'That odd bundle of sublimated sensations
lvhich`we call our memory contains nothing
litter than its landscapes. It has many faces
--of men and women, some ot them giving
e lath perpetual sunshine; others clouded with
anger and hate; it even holds the forms of
favorite dogs and horses; it stores up recol
' leetious of particular rooms in houses that
are now level with the ground, of chambers
in country inns where merry or tender meet
ings have taken place; but its richest and
.finest treasures are its landscapes. You can
not call before your mind the figure of any
one who was once dear to you without filling
In a background, and the background is sure
to be some well-remembered scene, which is
made to glow with all the magical light of re
miniscence. Love and- memory between
them - have a knack of creating landscapes oat
of nothing. The coarsest materials leap into
artistic harmony at their wizard touch. What
can be made out of a large manufacturing
town for example—out of its dismal grey
streets, its hideous pall of smoke, its ghastly
ehimneys rising up into the cold and clouded
sky, its squalid lanes, and dingy people, and
muddy pavements, and - what not? The
subtle alchemy of love crimsons the grey
clouds, the tall chimneys become spires of
gold,the dull streets have a wonderful glamor
about them, far more wonderful than any
transformation scene with shining fairies and
g•reen light; and then, this flue picture having
been completed,lovebands it over to memory
in order that it may acquire the richness, and
softness, and mellowness of age. So it hap
pens that they who have lived their life in
large towns are not entirely deprived of love
landscapes. Perhaps the oddest fact, how
ever, about these mental transformations is
that once certain forbidding materials have
_ been made beautiful to you, they are always
beautiful. The modern loVer, whose heart
may be as big as that of a Petrarch or an Abe
lard, walks the cold streets with no more idea
of the change which outward things are un
dergoing than he has of the political move
ments in Japan. He is only conscious that
-he is about to visit a particular young person
and trusts that she will be at home, and that
her mother may be asleep over a novel, or
busy scolding the servants. Perhaps he has
just visited her, and now walks past the
shop windows seeing nothing and hearing
nothing, engrossed with the windy delight
which is blowing through -his not over
stocked head. He does not know that upon
the dismal buildings which he passes he is

curiously-jumbled associations linked with _
the most ordinary sensations. Tne smell of`
seaweed, for example, is not a fine per
fume.- - It< cannot be • compared' with
the fragrance of roses after rain, or
the scent of a beau-field in blossom; and yet,
the first whiff of it one gets, in coming down
from some close city to a seaside village, and
getting out upon the nearest headland, seems
to transfigure one. The swift rush of, mem,-
ries is far too confused to admit of any single
bygone experience being recalled; but the
whole effect of this solitary sensation is so
new, and strong, and bewildering, that years
are taken from or added to one's life, and you
.vaguely imagine that past things , may noti be
quite past. In such a moment, if yon were
to turn and find at your elbow some person
who could by no possibility be actually there,
you would scarcely feel surprised. You feel
as if you had not yet proposed to the lady
who is your with, and that you might choose
somebody else. You think you will not in
vest that money which has been invested, and -
lost, years before. You resolve that you
will alter the plan of that book which is to
set the , river on fire—that book which was
long ago printed, and bound, and published,
and barely got noticed.
There are various causes for the senti
mental interest with , which certain phases of
scenery are invariably linked in the mind, but
love is undoubtedly the chief of these. And
even as a story which ends tragically is longer
remembered than one which ends happily, so
scenes which have been consecrated by the
bitterness of love are more keenly remem
bered than these which have witnessed its
pleasures. The trifling accidents which will
suddenly revive these old pictures are com
mon and curious. Familiar objects which
have no intrinsic interest whatever—a bit of
scratchy landscape on the outside of a sheet
of music; the first fall of snow; the whistle
of plover, the howling of wind round the
house at night—in short, any little bit of one
of these mental pictures becomes the key
with whichthe whole Cabinet is unlocked.
The odd freaks which every person
at times 'manifests in an incompre
hensible liking for this or that commonplace
story, or snatch of poetry, or painting, must
often be accounted for in this way. We
cannot see what tue entranced spectator sees
in that coarsely-executed lithograph of a
moonlit castle on the front page of a drawing
room song. We see only a tumbling ruin,
with a rough sky, an impossible moon, and
some heavy and black foliage in the fore
ground. But the person whose eyes fill with
tears over this glimpse of bad art may see in
it unimaginable things—may have forgotten
years in the space of a moment ; and be there
and then breathing the air of the sea, con
scions of starlight overhead, and of the s3und
of waves, and of low, and urgent, and bitter
protestations, with the delight of making up,
when she who has been wayward suddenly
grows gracious, and the night is full of joy.
There are some happy people to whom
memory is only a sort of quiet and pleasant
churchyard, in which they can take a sedate
and respectable Sunday walk. Here they
tenderly place a wreath over a certain grave;
there they have the mute delight of scowling
over the tombstone of a buried enemy; but,
one way or the other, there is nothing of a
disturbant or repellant kind to confront
them. And there are people whose memory
is very different—a powder-magazine which
any casual spark of reference is likely to blow
up with a sharp and sudden shock. Love is
the etorer of that powder; and sometimes
the explosion is so fierce as to transfer the
unhappy victim to a better world. And
there are other people—perhaps the ma
jority—whose memory is stored with recol
lections painful and humorous, pleasing and
terrible, joyous and full of despair; and these
are the people who carry about with them
ideal landscapes. It would puzzle themselves,
'perhaps more than anybody else, to refer
back to their original elements those mystic
pictures of thunderous forenoons, and sum
mer days, of happy evenings, and stormy
nights of rain and wind. The materials are
doubtful; but the band that combines them
is unmistakable. Love is the master-painter;
and as yet no explanation has been given why
he paints more sad pictureblhan merry ones.

HAIMISRMIO, Jan. 14; 1869.—The . time of the
Senate and House today has been mainly occu
pied with drawing the committee "to try the
Greenbank contested election case. You will see
that two Democratic Senators and two Republi

Representatives were drawn. To-morrow the
some tedious operation will have to be submitted
to to please the Dernocratic citizens of Philadel
phia who desire to oust Judge Hare The meet
ing to-morrow was ordered more particularly so
that the political minority could have no cause to
complain of unfair dealing, but the passage of the
resolutiOn so ordering was rather distasteful to
many of the Senators and Representatives, woo
desire to go home to-day.
Mr. Mclntire, of the Senate, .has introduced a
supplement to the act relating to Orphans' Courts,
approved March 29, 1832. It provides that In all
cases of proceedings in the Orphans' Court, in
.partition.wherein a wife has made or shall m Ike
her declaration in pursuance of the 48th auction
of the act of March 29, 1832, of her desire taat
the money secured to her under the said proceed
ings shall be paid to her hnsband,and subsequent
to the filing of the said declaration and before the
payment of the money, the parties shall have
been or shall thereafter be lawfully divorced from
each other, the said money'shall remain the pro
perty of the wife notwi hstanding the said decla
ration, and shall be legally collectable by her in
her own name and for her own use.
Mr. Connell has a bill in charge which proposes
to rep( al the eleventh section of the act of April
28, 1850, relative to party walls. The reason
given for its passage is that the section was
,Passed by a then member of the Legislature from

effected, great hardship and injustice will be
caused as property be a. -s more valuable.
Mr. Sobers has intN•ciOd a bill, which, .if it

power of appointing one>of the Building Inspec

Court. He is to serve for three years. from July
next, and receive the same compensation as hie

Fortieth Congress—Si:gird session.
CLOSE. OF. YESTERDAY'S PROCREDLEGS.
BESTATE.—Mr. • Wilson introduced a bill to
amend the act of March 2, regulating the tenure
of certain civil offices, which was referred to the
Joint Committee on Retrenchment. It providds
that all persons holding, or who shall hereafter
hold civil offices; to which they have been up
' pointed by and with the, consent of the Senate,
except the Secretaries of State, Treasury, War,
Navy. , and Interior, the rostma.ster-General mid
Attorney-General, and others that may hereafter
be made Cabinet offices, shall be entitled to nold
such offices until a successor shall have been In
like manner appointed and - duly qualified, except
otherwise provides for in this bill.
Section two provides that daring a recess of
the Senate the rrt.licient shall have authority to
suspend any officer SO appointed, except Judges
of we Supreme Court, and to matte en ad interim
appointment until the neit meeting of the
Senate, and until-the case shall be agreed upon
and determined by that body. The .suspension
must be report-ea to the Senate within twenty
days stfU:r lta meeting. In case of Its Concurrence
that suspension may be made by a removal, but
it the Senate do not concur, the suspended (Mittel
shall resume the furretions of his office, big shall
notreceive'parfor the time during which be was
suspended. The President may, however, at any
time before reporting such suspension to the
Senate, revoke it and reinstate the suspended
officer in diaper for Mance of his duties.
Section three repeals the, first two sections of
the act of March 2d, as above referred to. .
Mr. Kellogg introduced a bill to aid the con
struction of a orotribsitestern railroad and tele
graph line to the Pacific Ocean, with branches
and connections, Which was referred to Me Com
mittee on .Pecifie Railroads. It incorporates a
company under me style and name of We South
western Pacific Railroad Company, with a &pi
ta! stock of ono hundred million dollars, to con
struct and maintain a railroad and telegraph line
from Fulton, ArkanallA, crossing the Trinity river
between the 32d and and parallels to El Paso, on
tee Rio Grande; thence through New Mexico and
Arizona ton point on the Rio Colorado, near the
southeastern boundary of California, and thence
to San Francisco, with branches from the cross-
Ing of Trinity river to a railroad running from
Louisiana through Marshall. county, Texas, and
from some point in California to. Sea Diego.
in aid of the enterprise the bill proposes to
giant twenty sections per mile on each side of
tue tine, abet six per cent. thirty-year bonds of
tee government to the amount ut twenty thou
sand dollars per mile in New Mexico and
Arizona, and sixteen thousand dollars per mile
for the rest of the line, to be secured by a second
mortgage.
Mr:Sumner introduced a bill, providing that
persons attempting to exercise powers of office
for which they are disqualified by the Constitu
tion and laws of the United States shall be pun
ished, on conviction, by Imprisonment for two
years at bard labor, and making it the special
duty of officers of the United States Courts,
which are to have exclusive jurisdiction over
such Cases. LO institute proceedings against such
persona Referred to the Committee on the Ju
diciary.
The Senate then resumed the consideration of
the bill for the relief of Bac Murphy, of De
catur, Alabama, which was debated by Messrs.
Sawyer, Thayer, Howard, Stewart, Morton, Wit
h. Williams and Howe.
, / 6
Adjourned.
The special order was then taken up, when Mr.
Van Horn (N. Y.) spoke at length in support of
his bill to provide for the construction of a ship
canal around the Falls of Niagara. He argued its
importance and necessity in a military, travel
and commercial point of view, and
earnestly maintained that its construc
tion could work no injury to our
present lines of CoMmunication. and that it was
a national work, fdr' the benefit of the whole
country; and the duty of .Government was to
further and support it, as It would increase the
production of an immense extent of country.
Wisdom and sound statesmanship and a high
sense el duty demanded that the work be consum
mated as speedily as possible.
Mr. Van Horn spoke one hdur in support of
the bill, and was followed by Mr. Humphrey (N.
Y.), who opposed the bill. One for the purpose
of constructing the canal was passed by the
House during the Thirty-ninth Congress, but
failed in the senate, and why was this bill Intro
duced here? Private capital could not be pro
cured to build it, and that was the reason why
Congress was asked for 512,000,000 to be placed
in the hands of the Secretary of War to construct
the work. It was a scheme of •the Dominion
from beginning to end. The construction of this
canal was to revive the reciprocity treaty with
Canada, and for no other purpose. .
Mr. Van Horn—Do I understand my colleague
to Buy that I am in favor of the revival of the re
ciprocity treaty.
Mr. Flumphrey—l say that fide Scheme is in the
interest of the Now Dominion and of a revival of
the reciprocity treaty.
Mr. Van Horn—l want to say I dad my friends
are oppOsed to' ita.renewal.'. • ,
Mr. Humphrey was sorry to say that one of the
Secretaries of the Government should so far pan
der to the interests of the schemes as to use the
report's of Mr. Brega, in view of the fact that the
canal would be, of no interest to, the West, and a
part of the plunder scheme. R esealed to hini it
was,time the I3ouee should consider whether they,
have the money to invest for the purposes of the

WASHINGTON, Jan. 14.—The despatch announ.
clog the nomination of Carl Schurz, as Senator
from Missomtin caucus last evening,gives gene

action of Senator Drake in going to Missouri to
defeat the nomination of Mr. Schurz is criticised
very severely by many of his valleagnes,as being
unnecessary interference nrt his part, and his
failure, therefore, is well received in Republican
circles.
