A ROMANCEOF REALITY
Beautiiul, peerlessly beautiful lathe la
dy Manoelita. the only daughter of Rome.
the famous and poweriul President ot the
Argentine Republic ; powerful in the
etrenglb‘ol his mind, and Iti‘the iron rem
lutton at his character. n hich has enabled
him to control and «way u people whom
none rave him can keep in order, and to
defy» the united attempts ofEngland and
France to break up his commerce and bend
him to their terms.
We say that the lady Manuelita is beau~
titul, but her talent‘. graces. and accorn.
pliahments.~ alone sustain and render her
beauties perlect and harmonious.
It almofl’ seems a subject of surprise
that this fair lady. so attractive in'man‘
nere, and so elevated in her position.
should have arrived at ,lhe age at twenty
five years. without a thought of approach
ing'the hymenial altar.yet no it hath been:
not, however. tram lock of solicitation and
opportunity; lor many a noble and brave
cavalier has knell and sued for lhe love
and‘hnnd. which might blus a King. but
because: ‘ ‘ -
First—ol‘all her suitors, not one, when
weighed in the careful balance 0! her dis
’(:riminalingjudgment. but lacked some of
those qualifies 0! head and heart which a
lone could win‘and fix her pure and lolly
‘afiecliohu. .
Second—Had nny' cavalier presented
himself. possessed of all the qualities
which would gain her love. she could not
leave her father’s side, for as necessary as
«less is to the flower. as light in dorknesp
is to man. was she to him. She has ever
acted as his adviser and confidant}: she a
lone can guide and sway his stern will,
she alone .can soften his stern heart when
it is lrozen‘in its stern reeolves. He could
not' liv'e Without her. She receives his
company. writes his private am.l important
documents. keeps watch «and ward over
his interests and saletymnd becomes even
as it were a second sell unto him. But to
our ”story : ,
A short distance up the river above Bu
enos Ayres. General Rosu has a beau-.1-ful
ful country seat. where often in the warm
summer time he and his daughter retire to
enjnylthe fragrant perfumes which arrives
With the evening breeze from the groves
of peach. lemon, and orange. which cover
it. A few years ago during a heavy gale,
a ship wandri’ven high and dry by lhe
winds and swq’llgn waters into the very
midst..of this favorite plantation of the
President’s. and when the gale abated she

Melancholy Disaster!
Collision between lhe ateamer Chesapeake
. and schooner Jolm Patten-fiat]: Vu
aela and several Live: Last. ‘ ‘ .
'l'he steamer Chesapeake and John Por
ter came in collision about half past tWelve
o’clock Thursday morning. when some
four or live tnilesofl Conneaut. The mo
ment they struck the officers and hands
on the Porterjumped on board the Chea
apeake. The boat and vessel soon sepa
rated. the boat backing nti. The Porter
Was not supposed to be seriously injured,
and the boat ol the Chesapeake was low
ered to put the crew on board the schoon
er. when the vessel went down.
About this lime it was found that the
Chesapeake was fastfilling,and unsuccess
ful eflorts were made to stop the leak.—
The boat was headed to the shore and all
steam crowded. The pumps were seta
going. and efl'urts were made to keep down
the water by bailing. Captain Warner
had the jib lowered over the bow. which
was drawn into the opening and partially
atded in staying the rush ol waters. Not-'
withstanding every etiort. the water gain
ed so rapidly that the tires were soon ex
tinguished, and when} about a mtle and a
halt trnm shore the bd‘at lost her headway.
The wind was blowing quite lresh lrom
the south-west. considerable sea was run
ning. and the anchor was letgo to prevent
dritting into the Lake.
The Chesapeake’s boat was immediate
ly manned. and filled with as many patt
sengers as it could carry. (our of them Is
dies, and started tor Conneaut tor assist
once. The wind was so heavy that the
boat dritted some two miles below the
pier. Mr. Shepard, Clerlt of the Chesa
peake. ran upthe beach. and reached the
pier just as the steamer Harrison was en
tering the port. Capt. Parker promptly
went to the rescue of the sufferers with
the Harri-on. took "tithe survivors on the
wreck, and picked up all that could be
lound afloat in the lake on hatches. cabin
doors, &c. A small boat from the shore
rescued some who were nearly exhausted
from long bum-ting of the waves, upborne
on these lorlorn hopes of drowning men.
. Alter the Chesapeake was brought to
anchor she continued to sink gradually.
notwithstanding every poasible eflort by
pumping and bailing to keep her afloat.
and at half past three o'clock. the hull
went down how foremost in 40leet water.
The upper'cabin parted from the hul|.and
the upper deck remained out nl waler.—
On this such of the persons on board as
had not previously lelt the boat were gath
ered and saved. None were that who tol
luwedthe adviceol Capt. W. and contin
ued with the wreck. But as the boat sunk
deep in the water. and itbecame certain
that the must go down. a number prepa
red floats and took their chancelor escape
on them. Of these. eight are known to
have been drowned. and it Is feared that
others met with a melancholv fate.
The passenengers numbeied between
forty and filly. an unusual proportion la
dies. and several children. No ladies or
children were lost. The presence ofmind,
energy and iortitude oi the ladiel through
out the trying scene is described as re
markable. Perilous as was their situation
they herded the advice ol the officers, at
their request-urged their protectors to go
below and assist in keeping the vessel tt
lloet. and made no outcry until it was ap
parent that the Harrison in passing had
not discovered the wreck—when one of
them asked permissinn nl the Captain to
also hail their best hope til rescue. with
the remark that woman‘s shrill Voice
Could be heard farther than man’u. Wo
man‘s cry 0! agony, too, was ioat.in the
voice of the louder sounding sea. The
lady nl Captain Warner was on boartl.‘
and belore the bout went down she has ta
ken to the mast head. and remained there
until the Harrison came to the rescue.
Althe bonlts ol the-boat were lost, it is
impossible to obtain a lull-list of passen
gers at present.
It is greatly lesred that Mr. D. M. Ful

small boat was leaving the wreck. he urg
ed his wife to enter it with her child. She
was unwilling to do so Without he. accom

night was gusty. clear above but misty on

lights appeared much larther distant than
they really were. r
A Paris letter-writer. alluding to the
approaching marriage of General Lamori
ciere, says that theintended bride. 'f one
of the richest heiresees in the kingdom.
ailted. moreover. with youth. beauty and
great intelligence, had long been solicited
by her lriends, and persecuted by her re
lations. to consent to divers marriages pro
posed by them in turn.and all of course
at unique and unexceptionable park's.—
Worn out with these repeated annoyances,
disgusted and disappointed with the tail
ure of the various tests to which 'she had
submitted the divers suitors [or her hand.
she at length declared to her astonished
relatives that she had taken her own cause
in hand. and selected a husband for her
sell. llthe astonishment was grestat this
avowel. how. much greater did it become
when it was.ltnown that the choice had
fallen upon Gen. Lamoriciere, who um
serving in_ Africa. whom she had ne'er
seen. and knew only through report.—
However, there was no remedy ; the
young lady is her own mistress 3 her for
tune entirely nt her own disposal, 80 La
moriciere was written to immediately.
and. although not among the leastwunder
