A NEW ROMANCE WAIZONI The ni:dit wa , 4 loarrul rl'he thunder le it in him' ,deliite reverberations front c ra z in elift, „ad hack The li,,,ht enhez li:ditened ; the rain tained. The diet , of Nttture was v,31..3 . wLt, and the earth et ,:wed and trembled beneath the terrifi.• , buck of tlu element: , would hav•.• been a fitout hearted and learles:s man who dared venture out without an umbrella into the whirl and turmoil of that driving , torm. I dare ny he did nut d o it. And india-rubber overshoes, too. ;Suddenly, had it nut been so dark, there !night have been seen a small and fragile boat---a shallop--leaving the tu multuous lake, and slowly making its perilous way, buffeted :111(1 beaten back continually by the storm. Now aloft, now slow, now lost in the engulphing billow, but ever working on ward toward the euthenist shore, the shallop went, propelled by the strong and nervous arms of a heroic hired man. But ha! who is it that reclines in the slern seat ? 11 is cheek blanches not, and his eye is lit with a ray of anticipation and delight even in the midst of the tetn pest's roar. And it is no roar on the halbshell I can tell you by looks he 80 unmoved, so calm, so 0-be-joyful, almost, while the stormy ter rors of the deep encompass him ? Ah, it is because s/u• nestles at his side. Hier rosy palm entwines his ; her long yellow hair limas like a golden chain a bout hint; bet gentle nose and radiant chin are close to his conspicuous should er, and their hearts throb in Inison with the dirge-music of the pines on shore and the raging waters before them ! And thus they speed onward, ever guided by a din] and twinkling Window light alhr, that wakes pale echoes through the gathering mists. It is warm and snug in the uak•panel ed library. The clear-globed lamp shines bright upon the ponderous tomes and ntil titudinous papers .that strew the floor and furniture.

NOBLE Dimon —Mr. Dickens, in his Mid's History of England, gives the following slap in the face at some of the greatest of the nobility in England. In Charles the Second's. time, he says : ,‘ The whole Court was a great flaunt ing crowd of debauched men and shame less women ; and Catherine's merry husband' insulted and outraged her in every possible way, until she consented to receive those worthless creatures as her very good friends, and to degrade herself by their companionship. A Mrs. Palmer, whom the King made Lady Castlemaine, and afterwards Duchess of Cleveland, was one of the most powerful of the bad women about the Court, and had great influence with the King nearly all through his reign. Another merry lady, named Moll Davis, a dancer at the theatre, was afterwards her rival.

There is a good deal of music in it: NASHVILLE, Jan. 29, 1865 • near Brother Tom wrote to you some six months ago, and feel quite un easy about you, as not a line has reached me since your letter last June I now repeat to you that matters and things are getting worse every day. You will be astoniahed to hear that your friends of the female denomination are dropping off every day. Yes, dropping off, too, as willing victims into the arms of the ruth less invader. Just think of it ! Mollie the unconquerable, who used to parade that large Beauregard breastpin, and who used to sing "Maryland, my Maryland," with so much pathos, was married some four months ago to a Federal officer with but one baron his shoulder. Sallie, who used to sleep with the" Bonnie Blue Flag"under her pillow, who looked daggers and pis tols at the invaders, who would not speak to her schoolmates,N and C ,be cause they received and treated Federal officers with due politeness, she, too, is gone—yes, married to a Federal officer with two bars ! Sue, the historical one, who carried the glittering stiletto in her belt, who was going to imitate Charlotte Corday and assassinate somebody for her country's sake, she, too, has gone the way of all flesh, and married an officer with that detestible eagle on his shoulder. And now pull out your handkerchief, and prepare for the worst, my poor brother Toni. Your old sweetheart, Anna, the one to whom you dedicated your sweetest verses, and whose mekdieus voice o often mingled with yours in days of yore, who defied both generals and the whole 15th Army Corps, who was first sent South and then North, but upon whose rebll.ous temperament no elimaterial change could have the least influence, she, too, has hauled down the stars and bars, and Is about to surrender at discretion. 1 should not have believed this, but to convince myself 1 passed her house the other night with a gentleman who protects us during your absence on purpose to find out the state of her political sentiments from her musical programme.

Poor brother Tow ! You know I con sidered her always the Gibralter of the South, and now, when she surrenders, I must think that the Confederacy has gone up You had better come home immedi ately and)ook to your interest in that quarter, as, perhaps, it may not be too late yet to produce a favorable change in your suit Tell the boys down in Dixie if they do not return soon they will not find a single girl or widow below con scriptage in these parts, as the watch word now seems to be " Suca•' qui which means " Marry who you can."

A member of the LowerHoUse,by the name of Do Laet, who represents the largo, wealthy, and influential city of Antwerp, and who is regarded as 'one of the fore- Most politicians of the country, accused the Ministry of provoking the hostility of the United States by takiug t9q.aetive active a part in the prooesi of ImpeFeal- izing Mexico, merely because Maximilian the First happened to be the son-in-law of the Belgian King. In the course of his reniks, he asserted that the officers of the Government had granted permits to emigrants for Mexico, which were so worded that the holders could be shot as deserters unless they joined the army of Maximilian, upon their arrival in the distracted country of their destination. Hereupon the Minister of War, Baron Chazal, became exceedingly irate, and declared that the man who made such an accusation could alotte ha capable of performing such an act of infamy."— NO, 23. The deputy from Antwerp appealed to the chair, asking to have the Minister rebuked for what he deemed a violation of parliamentary decency. Failing 61 obtain satisfaction in this way, the dep- uty challenged the Minister. The chal lenge was accepted Baron Ghazal was slightly wounded, and then the combat ants, in accordance with the usual ens- tom in such eases, declared theinselve, Satisfied, Shook hands, pronounced earl] other men of honr. and swore eternal friendship. There is certainly a comical side to Two men, indulging in such bitter feelings of enuty, that each is willing to risk his own life fbr the sake of' endangering that of his adversary, meet, fire once or twice at each other and then utter the warmest protestations of Mutual regard. The most. malicious animosity changed, by a pistol-shot. into the most devoted friendship ! The days when duels among public men were common in Anglo-Saxon lands seem to have passed away. But they do not lie very far hack in the past. In England. even during the present cen tury, such statesmen as Canning, O'Con nell, the two Peels. the Duke of Wel lington, Castlereagh, and D'lsraeli have not been courageous enough to refrain from sanctioning by their examples this absurd and wicked practice. In our country the list of public 111C11 who have participated in duels is still larger. The mournful incident of Hamilton's death. at the hands of Burr, is well rememher ed.

Even now, scarcely a session of our na tional legislature passes without threats of a re s o r t to this code of honor.

It is amusing, however—for one is interested in observing the habits of animals all over the world—to see the manner in which these creatures catch) the apes. which sometimes take a fancy to play with them. Close to the bank lies the crocodile, his body in the water, and only his capacious month almve the surface. ready to seize anything that may come, within reach. A troop of apes catch sight of him, seem to consult together, approach little by little, and commence their frolics, by turns actors and spectators. One of the most active, or most impudent, jumps from branch to branch, till within a re spectful distance of the crocodile, when, hanging by one claw, and with the dex terity peculiar to these animals,the ad vances and retires, now giving his enemy a blow with his paw, at another time only pretending to do so. The other apes, enjoying the fun, evidently wish to take a part in it; but the other branches, being too high, they form a sort of chain by laying hold of each other's paws, and thus swing backward and forward, while any one of them who come within reach of the crocodile, torments him to the best 'of his ability.
