1 Bfl ftOLDICK LOTKR HOW III D1KD. The following comes from a very gracefully written sketch of th Amer ican prima donna, from the pen of Lmcj Hamilton Hooper: A singular and mournful little ro mance it connected with the earlier portion of the fair singer's career. During the last rear of the war, and after one of the last great battles, the chaplain of the Massachusetts regiment was engaged in rendering the last ser vices to the dying, when he came across a young lieutenant Wing by the road aide, and evidently desperately woun ded. The chaplain proposed to sum mon medical aid, but. the young man declined the offer, saying that he was dying, and vhat he preferred to he left to pass away without further suffering. After doing what he could to make the sufferer more comfortable in his last moments, the chaplain asked the dying man if he wished to send any messages to his relatives or fronds. "No, he bad neither he was alone in the world." "Was there no one," per sisted the chaplain, "to whom he would like to send a word of farewell V The young officer hesitated. "Yea" he answered, "there is one' adiss Clara Louisa Kellogg, the prima donna. She does not know me, nor have I ever met her, er seen her off the stage. But she is the one the only woman that I ever loved. I saw her in opera repeat edly when I was last in Boston, and tbeffect she produced on me was in stantaneous and ineffaceable. And I should die happier did I know that he would one day learn that I had once existed, and that I loved hsr." A few brief lines were penciled by the falling hand on a leaf of the chaplain's note book, a single dark curl was sev ered from the locks already growing damp with the dews of death, a word or two of thanks were faintly spoken, and then tb dim eyes closed, and the brieT romance and the young soldier had ended together. In due course of time the letter and the lock of hair were placed in Miss Kellogg', hands, and if the spirit of the sender, at the moment of receiving them, was Cover ing near, he had at least the joy of knowing that though unknown to his fair lady love, he had not died unwept by her. ! ' a ' A corespondent of the Chicago In-Ur-OeeaA says: "When Alex. H. Stephens was a boy, two sisters, ' old maids, attracted by his brightness, adopted, educated and destined him for the church. But a few months of theological training convinced the yoong student that the profession had no attractions for him, and he announ ced (o his benefactors his intention of exchanging the pulpit for the bar. Shortly after -he was admitted to his new profession a lawsuit arose invol ving the estate of the younger sister, the other having, in the meanwhile died. ' He asked her to let him man age the case for her, but she, fearful of his inexperience, preferred looking for some older lawyer. At last one wrote to her whom she approved, and haviug asked the advice of her friends, she confided the matter to him. The contest was warni. vexatious and lnn. but she came out so triumphantly of wnai caa oeen regarded as a hopeless snarl, that she doubled her cr reel's fee. The intercourse between ' two had been by letter exclusively, n, liv ing in the country, and he in a distant city, so that the trick, which you have already guessed, Stephens had playe i upon her, was under the circumstan ces, quit creditable. Out of his fee he repaid what she had .pent on his education, and his success in so deli cate a piece of business was a fine be ginning for a young lawyer."
