STRAUSS AND HIS SOPHIE WALTZ.
Strauss, the waltz-hero, - loved the daugh
ter of a count. Sophie was her name. Her
eyes as blue as Italy's heaven,and softer than
she sweet light of the evening star. Grace
and beauty-shone forth in every motion, and
sweat melody in elm , tone, He 'Would have
given Worlds to Mere won one glance of !Ore
from this - beautiful being, but she was cold
and stern. Madness indeed it was for a poor
wandering musician, with nothing but 4i3
violin, to,dare to love the high-born Sophie,
who had as many noble ancestors as he had
waltzes.
•
"Rash impertinence," said Sophie ; 1-
when he came to give her brother a less n,
she scarcely deigned to give him a look.
Shortly afterwards Sophie became the
trothed of the Count Robert, Lord Chain-•
berlain. who also could boast as many prolud
ancestors as the fair Sophie.bnateyond these
and his titles, he had nothing else.
One day Strauss chanced to be alone with
Sophie; he sank upon his knees-before her.
and with the burning words of the madden
ing passion, declared his love,, and besought
her to give him but one word or look ere he
was driven to despair. But no tears or pro
testations could move her, she was cold and
unfeeling as the inanimate marble.
"* I am the affianced bride of Count ROb•
ert," she said, haughtily, " and if ii were
otherwise, think von I would become he
wife of a poor musician ?" She turned
scornfully away and left him alone in his
grief and despair.
The repentance which soon awoke in The
heart of Sophie, came too late. The bride
groom and her father hastened the nuptial
day ; in eight days she would become the
wife of Count Robert. The ceremony }vas
to be performed in the grind -saloon °lithe
city, and the Count called on Strauss to! re
quest him to lead the orchestra on the o4ca
sin, and to hinor his bride with the compo
sition of a neelwaltz.
Strauss, the most miserable man in Ged's
universe, proinised him both. "He wishes
to wound m 4, yet more deeply." said the 'un
happy man io himself, " but I pardon him,
and my prayer to heaven is, that she maV be
happy, and that- she may never repent Ther
choice."
But his waltz! y thought strikes 1149, it
shall be the interpreter otitis passion and his
grief to Sophie; it should challenge her city,
if not her love. Oh ! what glorious power,
to be able to speak, to reproach, to plead ;
and through' his divine art. To work i l to
work !
'hen all the great city slept, Strauss ook
his violin, opened his window, gazes out in
to the cold night, and improvised and naiwi
ed forth his sad tale of woe to the sweet it6si
above, who looked kindly down on the :des
olate aid heart-stricken.
The day of the wedding came at last. The
fearful agony' of love had given him a waltz,
every measure or which spoke a longing sogi
row and departing woe. •The ball glistene
and shone with bright - jewels and brighter
eyes, but Sophie was more gloriously beauti
ful than them all. The richest gems_ilent
their beauty 'and then lustre, the pure myrtle
wreath bloomed in her golden hair. and! the
rare and costly veil shaded her heautilu! fea-
tures from the full gaze of =the admiring
crowd. Strains, a haggard, emaciated Man,
with brilliant and piercing black eyes, sharp,
and strongly 'marked features, dressed from
head to foot in black, as though he had as
sumed the mourning livery for the bride'noW
dead to him, 'stood sad and silent in thel gal
lery 'above, directing the movements of the
orchestra. Sophie danced now with lone;
now with another of the wedding Oests,
and as often as she passed after the giddy
whirl-of the dance, she turned her eyes to
wards the pale and grief-siricken StrauS.!s, in
his robes of sorrow and mourning, andleach
time-met his piercing look of despairing ;love.
It was more than pity she felt—it was re
moist., it was a kindled love. A terrible pain
awoke in her heart, like the swelliagl of a
stream, groling ever deeper and 'yiderlin its
onward course; which threatened to Over
whelm and destroy her. How gladly sirould
she have wept, but she dared not. It son-
ded twelve; .Strauss gave the signal for the
performance of his new waltz. Tha gay
dancers stood up, Sophie on the arm cif the
happy bridegroom. All stand spell-bound
with the magic witchery of those magic
sounds. They forget to dance, they gaze in
. wonder .at the pale man in black, Whose
grief -torn soul breathes out his woe thiough
his beloved instrument. His bow moved with
his heart, his spirit moves in unison.; The
bridegroom leads oft the dance, and Strauss,
with fascinated, tearful eyes, and torn heart,
follows the flying pair in their giddy whirl.
They dance, and dance, and dance, and still
do not cease.- Strauss Plays, and playa, and
no stop to his wonderful waltz, which so
fearfully affects both him and them. They
still dance, and dance:, he plays, andplays ;
as sudden as the lightning's flash, the E -el
his violin Snaps, and at the same moment the
beautiful Sophie falls,dead upon the flOor.—
Violin and bow fall from his trembling haods,
and with a cry 'of horror he shrieks, lia So
phie!" and falls fainting on the ground.
Since SOphie's death, the waltz is ctilled
by her name: Strauss loved her to the last
moment of his existence. He, too, iit now
dead, but his, chat:Min* Sophie waltz still

WOMAN'S RIGHTS:
• David Hale, late editor of the Journal of
Commerce, once wrote n jeu d'espirt on the
" flights Of Woman," in which he shoried
that the balance of wrongs was decidedly on
the side of: men. When the simple question
of superiority is at issue, the men always
have to give up. If ladies and gentlemen
meet on the sidewalk, who has to turnout?
If there are not seats enough for all the com
pany, whO has to stand up? When there
is danger to face, who must go forward ?
There is curiosity to gratify, who goes be
hind ? there is too much company fur
the first table, who eats at thesecond ? Who
has always the tight hand, and the most re
spectable ]position ?. We could 'mention a
hundred other cases in which; unite simple
question of, right; every thing, is yielded to
the woman. • .
But thMe are many cases' in which the
condition of men is still worse. For instance
if on any public occasion n pew at a church,
ora seatanvwhere be occupied by men ever
.
respectable or aged,U smirkly little beauty
.trips along and presents herself at the top of
the seat mid they must all jumptup and clear
out as ifi they had been shot. Especially
ought it to be noticed, that when triatrimo- 1
nial negotiations are to be made, the whole
burden of perforining the delicate and•often
very emliarrassing part of ,making prOpo
sals is thrOwn upon the men; while the wo•
men sit and say no, no, .no, no, as long as
they like, 'and never say yes, until they have
a mind to.
GOOD-MANNERS
There can be no general rules for good
manners -that supply the Ilse of individual
judgment, to their application. A general
rule may, in special cases, require to be re
'versed. The same conduct that is accepta
ble in one condition of mind becomes offen
sive, in another ; and what will please a
stranger is often a nuisance to a member of
the family. Attention, in the one case, has
a welcome appearance of kindness and hos
pitality ;-in the other, it is troublesome and
unwelcome officiousness. A good-natured
man will bear more familiarity than a reser
ved and Unsocial one. A thick skinned loan
will endure ruder habits than ,a thin skinned
one; and the ruder habits will seem pleas
anter to than the favorite habits of his
more sensitive counterpart. A well-man
nered man will find nut all this with an lot
perceptible glance nf his - e-e, for he can see
without staring, and he will act accordingly,
accommodating himself to the temperament
of his companion : and if his companion he
equally well-mannered - and accoMmudating,
they undetstand one another immediately.
DESPISING HOUSEHOLD•DUTI ES
From a variety of causes, nothing is more
common 'than to find American women who
have not'• the slightest idea of household du
ties. A writer thus nlludes to this subject :
"In the neglect of household cares.
American *women stand alone. A German
lady, no' matter how lofty her mak, never
forgets that domestic labors conduce to the
health or the mind and body alike. An En.
glish lady, whether she be only a gentleman's
wifeor a duke's,does not despise the household
and even, though she has a housekeeper, de
votes a portion of a her time to this, her true,
her happiest sphere.' It is reserved for our
republican fine ladies to be more choice than
even thgir monarchical and aristocratic sis
ters. The result is a lassitude of mind often
as fatal to health as the neglect of bodily ex
ercise. The wife who leaves her household
cares to the servants, pays the penalty which
has been affixed to idleness, since the founds
tion of the world, and either wilts away from
ennui, or is driven into all sorts of fashiona
ble follies to find employment for her mind."
BOYHOOD AND ITS CLATTER
Few - Men have any objection to " making
a noise in th 6 world :"
' and alt boys delight
in a hidecius racket, when produced by them
selves. Observe the relish with which they
" holler," stamp, pound on tables, upset
chairs, slam doors, drive nails, roll blocks of
wood down stairs. throw missiles against a
building, draw sticks across a slat fence, dis
charge Crackers and pistols; rattle castanets,
thump ' tin-pans, , blow penny-trumpets,
scrape cracked fiddles, ring bells, jingle mo
ney, shake buttons or marbles, tread round
in squeaking shoes, mimic the cries of ani
mals, and plunge iuto the hubbub of a fire
or an aCeklent. The first whistle a young
ster gets hold of—no matter how "dearly"
he " pays" 'for it—drives him almost crazy
with hilarious joy, and at the same time
drives those about him almost crazy with
ear-splitting, brain-tearing, nerve-racking
shrillness.—Bosion Literary Museum.
POWER. OF MUSIC
A clergyman, says Mrs. Sigourney, pos
sessing; much know - ledge of human nature.
instructed his daughters in the theory and
practice of music. They were all observed
to be exceedingly amiable and happy. A
friend inquired it there was any secret in his
mode of education. lie replied,," When
sorbing disurtbs their temper, I say to them,
• sing," and it I hear them speaking against
any person, I call them to sing to toe ; and
so they, have sung away all cause of discon
tent, and every disposition to scandal." Such
a use of this accomplishment might serve to
fit a family for the company of angels:—
Youngi voices around the domestic altar,
breathing sacred music, at the hour of morn
ing and evening devotion, is n sweet and
touching accomplishment.

lIOGARTH'S VIEW OF THE RED SEA.
Hogarth was once applied, to by a miserly
old nobleman, to paint on his stair-ease a re
presentation of the destruction of Pharaoh's
hosts in the Red Sea. In attempting to fix
upon the price, Hogarth became quite (Hs
satisfied. The miser was.unwilling to give
more than one half the real value of the pie•
titre. 1.4 Liao, Hogarth, out of all patience.
agreed Ito his patron's terms.
Within is day or two the picture was yea

expedition, and immediately called to exam.

e following physiological . facts Were
hated from a French Scientific Journal:
he average height of a man and wo
at birth, is g enerally sixteen inches.
eh of the twelve years after birth, one
th is added to the stature each year.—
cen the age of twelve and twenty, the
th of the body is slower ; and it Is still
et diminished after this up to twenty
the period of a maximum growth. In
ge the height of the body diminishes on
verage of about . three inches. The
t of a woman varies less than that of a
TN
transl
in different countries: The average
_ht of a male infant is about seven lbs. ;
female, about six and a hall pounds.-
1
weight of an infant decreases a few
after its birth, till it is a week old. At
end of the first year, the child is
. -
times as heavy as when it is barn.—
he age of seven years, it,is twice as
y as when a year old."
PRINTING OFFICES. •
When Dr. Franklin's mother-in-law first
discovered that the young man had a hank
.ering for, her daughter, , that good 'old lady
said she did not know so well about giving
her daughter to a printer : there were alrea
dy two printing offices to the United States.
and Ishe was not certain' the cotentrrtibuld
support them. It was plain younglranklin ''
would.depend for support on the profits of a
thir'd, and this was rather a doubtful chance.
If such an objection was urged to a would-be
son
1
in-law when there were but two print
ing o ffi ces in the United States, how can a
pri ter hope to get. a wife now, when• the
preitent census chows the nuntbeite be 1567.
