soldiers. I had faced murderous Indians on
their own hunting grounds ; their fiendish yells
had aroused me from my midnight slumber-s to
action ; I had marched unflinchingly forward,
leading my men, while arrows and bullets fell
like hail around me. All this I had met with
comparative equnnimity, and returned to the
metropolis of mir nation only to be subdued by
9. women. _
m Helen Sparrow wits fair and beautiful as
an li-a'iien sky. Conscious of he!- fascination,

Imm and soul to her bewitching influence.
“Army buttons” are provorbiafly inconstaut,
and I was no exception to the general rule.—
on this occasion I was fairly caught. in my own
not, so carefully woven for Helen. My flirta
tion assumed a} serious nepcct-—»I loved her, yet
I knew she mislrusted me.

a sacrifice would grimly her. .
Al. the expiration of this time, a party, con

Cares—n. former messmme—lho old fulks and
mywlf, was formed for a trip to Niagara. The
olcl folks took care of themselves. the captain
had charge of Gertie, and Helen fell under my
especial protection.
At Niagara, the International was filled to
iIS utmost capacity. North and Soulh had
poured their fairest daughterfijmo'mis caul
dron of fashionable excitement. and handsome
sons had followed the wanderings of their fair
inamo‘ratas. Among all, Helen-10 menwas
the fairest. With Ich eyes I viewed the mighty
torrent asit pitched headlong inlo thcggwfihg
abyss; when she was sad I was dospondeut;
when .she smiled I was all vivacicy. We walked,
rode, talked, laughed and wept together, until
my love amounted to frenzy, and my frenzy to
madness.

But this state of things could not. last. long,

of our acquaintance, when I had made a boost.
of my many flirtatious and scoffed at the very
existence of such a thing as pure and lasting
love. I had ridiculed it, one evening, as a
maudlin sentiment, and denounced it. the next
as the moonshine of juvenile precocity. For
all which 1 was soon to reap my reward~-and
a bitter one it proved to he. -
It. was a calm and beautiful night, such a. one
as is designed especially for lovers. Helen and
I had left the frivolous dance and strolled away,
flfifigxbég‘go 355.1: the Falls by 'moonlight. We
ourselves on a convenient. rock in 51g 0 e
mighty cataract. The final week of my fur
lough was drawing to a. close. We had been
conversing about constancy, and though my
sentiments were materially changed since our
first acquaintance, I was afraid to betray my
inconsistency by expreSSing them. My views 1
of lqye were somewhat. modified, and as that 1
subject naturally followed the other, the spirit
prompted me to try the virtue of action. With
a sudden impulse I fell upon my knees and‘
poured into her attentive cure my tale of love.
Half doubtingly, but. with becoming gravity.
she libtcncd; occasionally, at some unusual.
outburst of sentiment, a faint smile played
over her face, but only for an instant. My
vanity Whispered that it was the excess of joy
which filled her. At length I reached the mo
mentous question—the imaginary turning point
in my existence. She placed her soft. white
hand in mine, and while I kissed it enthusias
tically, ejaculating in the interim. “Mine, mine
forever !” with the other she raised her hand
kerchief to her eyes and turned aside her head,
as I supposed, to conceal the joyful tears which
‘would naturally dim her vision. I did not
1 learn, until several days subsequently, that it
} was simply to smother a laugh at my ridicu
lous actions.
I returned to the hotel jubilant, and in the
very extremity of happiness. Happy had it
been for me had I, by accident, fallen over the
precipice, for the dizzy height from which I.
was about, lo be thrown brought me in the end
more sorrow and anguish. '
A few days passed, and I received orders go
report for duty at Fort Leavenworth as early as
possible., I called oh Helen in her private
parlor. We were alone. The parting was very
like all such, which have been described a thou
sand times on paper, and occurs at least. once
in the life of every one. I renewed my vows
and protestations, but. she was submissively
tranquil. The last. farewell was spoken; a
final kiss imprinted on her fair brow ; I had my
hand on the knob of the door, when she drew
from her pocket :1 letter, and gave it to me.—
She bowed sweetly, and sorrowfully I returned
to my own room.
With eagcr‘expecmtion I opened the letter,
and here is a copy of it, word for word, as she
penned it
“My Excellent Friend: The time for part
ing has come ; thefizrcc is ended. Let us raise
the curtain and calmly review the events of the
past two months.
“ You returned to your home with the crown

your nature prompted you to make many do
velopments which taught me caution. You
scoffed at true love as an ideality, and at con

the fallacy of your unbelief.

THE SOUTII‘AND THE ELECTION OF
‘. LINCOLN.
__......,._<.-.
a 50mm won!) FOR THE NOR-TH
A correspondent of the New York Herald has
recently made a visit to the Hon. Alexander H.
Stephens, and eonversed with him freely upon
the probehle results of Lincoln’s election at the
South. Mm Stephens’ answer to the direct.
question : What course would be pursued at
the South on the happening at" such an event?
is given as follows: .
“ Mr. Stephens—Undoubtedly an attempt at
secession and revolution. I lz'ave viewed with
painful apprehension the approaching crisis for
years past. Fifteen years’ experience in Con
gress has qualified me to become somewhat in
timately acquainted with the temper and feel»
ingeof our people; and I am satisfied beyond
a doubt. that, in the ewnt of Lincoln’s election,
there will be at least an attempt at revolution.
There will be blood spilt—some may he hung;
but that the attempt will be made lam certain.
I cannot fortell the end, but I hold revolution
and civil war to be inevitable. The dema~
gogues have raised a. whirlwind they cannot
control nor stand before, and as much as I de
plore the event] cannot close my eyes to its
consequences.” v
We desire to add a. word of comment on the
above, and we hope it will strike the eye. if not
the hearts, of at least it. few at the North.
We are among the most hopeful of the friends
of the Union. Believing that Providence has
singled out this great. Republic of the West, in
which to work out the true principles of free
government, and the highest attainable degree
of mental and moral perfection. we have never
despair-ed. Nor can we reconcile with our eon
victions the apprehended feet. that a purely
sectional ruler is ever to be elevated over the
people of these States. Wild and desperate as
we may at times become, under the impulse of
temporary passion, we believe that there is a
conservative leaven in the hearts of a. vast um
mmmmwmmme-
ment and cause to penetrate the entire nation.
The necessity must be known and felt in order
to bring about. these happy results, and we have
a firm conviction that. it‘ the people of the North
were to-dny sensible of Ihe true state of public
sentiment. at the South, they would rise in their
might. and put. down that hydro-like monster
that. lies at. the bottom of all our woes—the
Republican party.
Reluctant.” as we say it, we are impressed
with the firm conviction that Mr. Stephens, in
the language we have quoted. has spoken the
truth—tho naked, unvarnishcd truth. It mat.-
tors not with the Southern people how conser
val-tire Mr. Lincoln may be, or whether his ad
ministration would be free from insult and
oppression or not; he is the representative and
head of a. purely sectional party, and one, the
solebond of whose union is hostility to the
domestic institutions of their brethren of the
South. The election of such a. man, and the
elevation of such a. party to the rulership over
us, is in our candid judgment, obliged to be
disastrous to every section of the confecleracy.
All men at the South may not favor disunion
as a. remedy or in. retaliation, but. we tell our
Northern friends that. the sentiment of disafl’ec
‘ lion and the sense of wrong will be universal.
We shali all feel it. deplore it, writhc under it,
and though peace and union may be preserved,
what. is such a peace and such a. union worth?
With no place in the hearts of the people, the i
outward exhibition of more prudential consid—
crntions within. how weak and impotent must.
be the sentiment. to resist. the first. billow of
passion, or the first, ground of disruption,
whether imaginary or real! There may be a.
state of things within the Union as bad as dis
ruptiokitself. Can the Northern mind not.
grasp is idea. and lay it‘lo heart? We pray
God that it. may, and that. it. will do in in time
10 save us from the breakers ahead 1 Throw us
not. into strife and revolution with our brethren
at. home; for when that. day comes we shall be.
all of one mind and one heart. The Rubicon
will have been passed, and a common cause
will he the cement of a. united South.
The friends of the Union compose a. vast
majority of the southern people-ave pray our
northern brethren to pause where they are,
and not. by their maddened career, place it in
the power of a. few to draw all into a. common
trouble. ,
Thus, the issues of peace or warn—possibly
union or disuuion—ore in the hands .of the
Republicans of the North. There can be no
peace so long as a. political organization is kept
up in one section, based on hostility to the
institutions and rights of another section—-
Whether we like the domestic systems of each
other or not, a. reconciliation must. take place
with regard to them, or it is impossible [or us
toeontinue together. Let us alone is all the
South asks, and that? must be granted, or cternul
discord reign. The' existence of the licpubh
can party is now the sole disturbing cause in
the Union, and the North must choose between
that and the Union. The question of “Protec
tion” is a more abstraction, 90$ {ll3 f 0? fll’l'eSi
dentin] campaign, there 110‘ bflng a foot of
territory to which it can be applied, and it‘there
was, the South should. and would, be content.
with the law as it. stands, declared by the
highest judicial tribunal of the land. Alibrary
of congressional statutes could give us no more
effectual protection than we already have, and
after the purpose of agitation shall have failed
——as it. assuredly will in the coming election—
we shall bear no more of the humbug.
Let. the North think of these things and be
wise while she may.
It is stated that there is a. grand emancipa
tion scheme now in embryo in Wester'n Vir
ginia, which will develop itself in the course of
the coming winter. The movement. is to have
for its leader “ a. dxstinguished gentlemen from
Eastern Virginia, not regarded as particularly
sound upon the slavery question for many years
past.” » "
Sronr or A New Outlaws lion—Nut. quite
fifteen years ago, says the New York mm
Messenger of the 2d inst, Paul Arthur was born
in the city of New Orleans. His parents were
poor, hard working people, and Paul was their
only child. Before he was old enough to wear
a. jacket and trousers, his father died, and
shortly after the mother removed with her
little boy to the city of Baltimore, where she
has since resided, obtaining for herself and son
a scant-y support by taking in washing. By
dint of birthplace and perseverance the ho;
picked up a little knowlidge of the Fl‘efleh.
and could read well the English language,
whilst hardly out of his slips. Some four
years ago Mr. Joseph Jefierson ("Our Ameri
can Cousin”) observed the little fellow about
the doors of the theatre in Baltimore, and, al~
though his dress was much the worse for wear,
his sparkling eye and intelligent countenance
attracted the attention of the commedian, and
an acquaintance between them Was the cone
sequence—an eequnintnnce which has proved
thus for highly: “‘ *1: to both. Mr. Jefi‘erv
son’s friendly amm~-un. pecuniary aid has.
kept Paul from the strong chances and tempta—
tions of “getting lost." V
During the session of the last Congress, Mr.
Pennington, the Speaker, on passing through
Baltimore, was so pleased at the appearance
of the boy that he offered him the appointment
of page to the flame of Representatives; but
Paul was then studying for u more ambitious
post, and he respectfully declined the offer. It.
few months ago, Without consulting a single
person, Paul wrote a letter direct to Louis Na
; poleou, Emperor of France, stating that he was
i an orphan, with all its destitution, verging
1 upon fifteen years of age, four feet and eleven
I inches in height, and that his fondest destroy
‘ was to receive it military education and become
i a soldier in the French army! In_ just four
weeks from the ditto of that letter Paul re
ceived, at the Post Oiiice in Baltimore, oletter
from the highest military niiiaer under Napo
leon, stating that the Emperor had selected a
place for the orphan boy in the first school of
France, and had placed the necessary funds to
defray all expenses in the hands of an agent
at l-luvre, who would receiVe him on his arrival.
with a special request for him to report him
self to the Emperor at his earliest pleasure.
Paul flew to arms, and, through the aid of
Mr. Jefferson, procured abecoming outfit. and
then fortif‘ying himself with testimonials of
the truth of all that he had written to the Empe
ror, took passage on the United States steamer
Illinois, which sailed from New York August
11th, and arrived at Harte on 23d of the some
mon'th. Mr. Jetferson has received the glad
intelligence that the wildest dreams of the or
phan boy, Paul Arthur,.orc now being fully
realized in the heart of France. Good old
