We oft destroy the present joy,
And future hopes, nor praise them,
While flowers as sweet bloom at oar feet,
If we'd%ut stoop to raise . them.
For things so fair still greater are
When youth's bright spell hath bound
us;
But soon we're taught that earth has
naught
Like home and friends around us.
The friends that speed in•time of need,
When hope's last reed is shaken,
Do show us still that, come what will,
We are not quite forsaken.
Though all were night, if but the light
From friendship's altar crowned us,
'Twould prove the bliss of earth was
this -
Our home andirientis around us.
A ItIRLANCHOLY TRUTH.-- When a rak
ish youth goes astray, friends gather
round him in order to restore him to the
paths of virtue. Gentleness and kind
ness is lavished upon him, to win him
back again to innocence and peace.
No one would suspect that he had ever
sinned. But when the poor COnfiding
girl is betrayed, she receives the brand
of society, and is thenceforth driven
from the ways of virtue. The betrayer
is honored, respected, esteemed ; but
there is no• peace for her this eide of the
grave. Society has but few loving,
helping hands for her ; no smile of peace
no voice of forgiveness. These are
earthly moralities unknown to heaven.
There is a deep wrong in them, and fear
ful are the consequences.
A LOST BRIDE.—The Patrie publishes
rather a queer notice to the .public.
On the 16th of November last a young
married lady, only in the first half of the
honeymoon, left her home at 6 P. M. to
take a warm bath. She has not yet re
turned, and all efforts of her husband and
friends to find her whereabouts have
proved fruitless. Conjugal desertions
of this kind are not viewed in their pro
pel light in Paris. The story of the
Patrie reminds us of a smart thing in a
French paper some time ago, A gen:
tleman calls on a lady, and inquiys for
her husband. "He has gone out to
fetch a cigar." " Has he been gone
long r " Twenty years ago." "Ah, he
was right—he wanted to find a good one.'
BOy's COMPOSITION ON Moomorr.
—The following is said to have been
read in a. city school :
'Twee a calm, stilt night ; the moon's
pale light shone soft o'er hill and dale.
Not a breeze stirred ; not a leaf stirred ;
not a dog stirred ; not a horse stirred ;
not a man stirred ; not an owl stirred ;
not a bog stirred ; not a oow stirred;
not a sheep stirred ; not a cat stirred ;
not a mouse stirred.; not a hen stirred ;
not even a goose stirred. Here the
teacher interrupted, observing that the
composition related more to agriculture
than moonlight.
lir A young lady advertised in the
Cleveland Plaindealer for a young gen
tleman to act as amanuensis. He must
be able to write and cipher, and when
not engaged he will be expected to read
poetry with feeling, and converse with
ease, and be able to play cribbage and
backgammon. He must expect to be
kissed when she is pleased, and cuffed
when she is not; but as her temper is
acknowledged to be good, there will
probably be more kissing than cuffing.
There's a good chance for somebody.

MARIETIA, SATURDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 24, 1866.
A. correspondent of the American Lit
erayy Gazette, writing from Paris, says
'Tie ill playing with edged tools, To
day I will tell yon the history of an ill
starred pair who set out in life with the
belt, the most laudable intentions, to
end their career with weeping and wail
ing, andgnashing of teeth. They play
with edged tools. Who'cannot call to
mind a-dozen instances where nnhappi
.
nese was the fate of people who thought
they might play with intellectual gifts
and inspiration descend at the crook of
their finger, and lure fame as easily as
the falconer does his tassel? The child
of genius, persuades himself that if he
had but money, he could soar to the
masters' pride of flight. He meets a
woman who would gladly share her dow
ry to be borne on' such pinions. They
marry. Wrinkles come, Gray hairS
appear, He is a child of genius all the
days of his life. Genius will not wear
fetters Besides, children of genius too
often shut their eyes to the great truth
that experience of life is absolutely ne
cessary to give maturity to genius.
She might as well expect to use hemp
before it has rotted as to see the loftier
talents bloom into genius until they
have gone through the feimentation of
life called experience. Tears must he
shed, blood must be spilled, the cheek
must burn with blushes, the heart must
be wrung, the brain fevered, the soul de
pressed to the gates of death, and all
this time and again before the genius
blooms. As the nightingale singsssveet
est after its eyes have been torn oat, as
the aromatic herbs have no odor until
they have been bruised, so genius must
ba bowed down to earth before it can
dream of scaling heaven. Therefore is
it that wealth hath stifled more genius
than poverty;, therefore is it* that the
road to immortality does not lie through
an heiress' bridal chamber, but' rather
, ihrough the cheerless garret, bereaved
of fire, whose calendar contains more
facts than feasts, whose wardrobe (a row
of nails behind the door) has nothing

A hundred demons, armed with wea
pons more formidable than smithy ever

world's contempt, the world's scorn, the

shrinks into himself and explores his

To expect this initiation from wealth's
partner 'would, be as idle as to ask the
hlolian harp, packed in bran, to rival
the instrument exposed in the window
to the current 'of winter's air: Forgive
me this long preface; but the story I
proceed to teliyou threw me into so
many and bitter reflections, Thave hith
erto been unable to recover my self
command.
Happening to be at St. hi—, a
small town in the south of France, I
visited the lunatic asylum. 1 have al
ways been fond of lunatics ; I have nev
er met among them a stupid or bad man.
I was shown into a tidy cell, occupied
by a little old man, bent over a desk,
and writin; with his finger on the board
with inexpressible rapidity. He rose
timidly, twirling hie fingers. He was at
least sixty years old, but occasionally
did not seem to be above fifteen.. His
white, almost blonde, hair fell in child
like curls, and his sweet face, smiling
and uneasy, wore the expression of in
fants when they both weep and laugh at
the same time. Neverthelees, one could
detect profound grief, trembling agony,
in his dilated eyes, which wore the fixed
expression'bf madness and despair. My
attendant made a gesture, and the poor
old man resumed his seat with extrava
gant delight, and began to write as fast
as ever . he could. .
Then, seated in a corner of the cell in
front of this infantine old man, my.
tendant told me the unhappy creature's
history. Somelofty or more years, ago
there lived in a small town named St. R
—, a young orphan. She was intel
lectual, wealthy, beautiful. Every un
married man in the province was at her
feet, his eyes fixed on ter fortune. She
was so fluttered, so adulated,.so compli
cated, her gorge would rise at night
when upon going to bed she would think
of the suitor:forced upon ..her during the
day. Atlast anoh7as the nausea she
expaTieimod, she peolvel to. give `her

A Sad Story,
exehange for the beauty and estate she
gave him. There was at that time in
her town a prodigy of eighteen, who
had rhymed from infancy, had "lisped
in numbers." He had already written
many a fable, tragedy, sonnet, and epic,
and the whole province had firm belief
that he would blea t into a greet genius.
She married thinrodigy that no ma
terial obstruction might delay his pro
gress on the road to fame. She brought
him up to Paris, and so planted him in
wealth's hot-house to force him to bear
fruit. Strange and inexplicable fatali
ty I unheard of catastrophe I The poet
bore no fruit. He had a charming study;
it was nothing but bronze and black
marble. HO lived in most favorable
quiet. He knew nothing of the thorns
of life. And after all he rhymed as he
rhymed when he was fifteen, mere dog
gerel ; fit at best for a confectioner's
kiss. Be was the best little husband
that eves was seen, gentle and timid,
amiable and laborious. She was the
best little wife that ever was seen, con
ciliating and encouraging, extremely
tolerant, and of an invariable good hu
mor. Nevertheless, by degrees, she be
came irritable. Be became ashamed of
himself. Every morning he would lock
himself up in his study, write madly,
blot quire after quire of paper, read it
over, and in despair confess t'was not
worth the ink it was written with.
. ,Every evening she would come, her
heart throbbing with anxiety, to see if
some good lines had at last made their
appearance. She would question the
poet, who everyday hung his head still
lower. At last impatience and disdain
appeared ; she could not tong check
their ontbreali; and she upbraided her
husband for defrauding her, because in
return for her beauty and her money he
had not giverrher genius.
After this scene matters went from
bad to worse. The husband became a
child scolded by his wife. He lived. in
a state of constant uneasiness, eternal
shame. He lived blushing and tremb
ling ; his heart was wrung by all the
tortures of the impotent artist and the
insolvent man. He suffered the tor
merits of the damned by the Bide of the
woman head robbed (as she said,) and
whose only sentiment for him now was
disdainful pity. So long as that woman,
had not abandoned all hope of seeing
her husband bloom into a geoiris. she
chained him to his writing-desk, and
made him write a given number of lines
every day before dinner. The unhappy
man addressed himself to the task, and
daily wrote worse. 'T was an hourly
battle between them of contempt and
and pain, She laughed disdainfully.
He shivered with fear and anguish.
He had spent $2,500 of her money in
attempting to become a great poet.
This was his galled withers. One morn
ing he refused to do his daily task, set
him every morning by his wife. He had
found in the office of some feint stock
company a copying clerk's place, with -a
salary of $l5O, and henceforward he be
gan to pay his debt to his wife. He
lived under the same roof with her, but
be paid rent for his• room ; he took his
solitary meal in restaurants whose price
was fourteen sous ; he dressed himself
with his own money, and nevertheless
managed to pay his wife a considerable
amount of money annually in payment
of his debt to her. He lived in this way
above thirty years, "silent and - uneasy,
sliunnibg every eye, and blushing Bud.

Hie sole . pleastire was to consult a

fur making Kansas's free state, left hie
wife and repaired to the territory, in
tending to return 8t;01). Becoming,
however, identified with the struggles of
Kansas, the Senator stayed away very
long. His wife, at length demanded hie,
return. He wrote back that it was im
possilile. His wife waited a little, and
then wrote, declaring that unless he re
turned by a stated time, sbe would sue
for a divorce. The Senator made no re

the patriotic movements in which ha
bore an important part. The next let
ter he received was from the clerk of a
court in Indiana, informing him that
his wife had filed a bill, with another
from a lawyer, offering to defend him.
The Senator wrote,back to the lawyer
as follows " Dear Sir—Yours to hand.
My wife , says she will not stand my long
absence. If I were she I would not
stand it either. I shall offer no oppo
