Loves Desperation.
A ROMANCE OF REALITY.

Beautiful, peerlessly beautiful is the lady
Manuelita, the only daughter of Rosas, the
famous and powerful President of the Ar
gentine Republic; powerful in the strength
of his mind, and in the iron resolution of
control and sway people whom none
save him can keep in order, and to defy the
united attempts Of England and France to
break up his commerce and bend him to
their terms.
We say that the lady Manuelita is beauti.
full, but her talents, graces and accomplish.
ments alone sustain and render her beau
ties perfect and kstmonious.
1t almost seems subject of surprise
that this fair lady, so attractive in manners,
and SO elevated in her position, should have
arrived at the age of twenty-five years,
without thought of approaching the by.
meneal alter, yet so it hath been: not, how
ever, from lack of solicitation and oppor-
tunity;.for many noble and brave cavalier
has knelt and sued for the love and hand
which might bless king, but because:
First-of all her suitors, not one, when
weighed in the careful balance of her dis
eliminating judgement, but lacked some of
those qualities of head and heart which
alone could win and fix her pure and lofty
affections.
Second-Had any cavalier presented
himself, possessed of all the qualities which
would gain her love, she could not leave
her fathers side, for as necessary as dew is
to The flower, as light in darkness is to the
man, was she to him. She has ever acted
as his adviser and confdant she alone can
guide and sway his stern will, she alone
can soften his heart when it is frozen in
its stern resolves. He could not live without
her. She receives his company, writes his
private and important documents, keeps
watch and ward over his interests and
safety, and becomes even as it were Sec
ond self unto him. But to our story.

Vol. s..
THE SPRING OF LIFE is PAST.


With its budding hopes and fears,
And the autumn time is coming
With its weight Of weary years
Our ioyousness is fading,
Our hearts are dimmed with care,
And youths fresh dreams of gladness
All perish darkly there.
While bliss was blooming near US
In the hearts first burst OF Spring,
While many hopes could cheer US,
Life seemed glorious thing!
Like the foam upon river
When the breeze goes ripping Ger
These hopes have fled forever
To come 10 US no more.
IT'S sad-yet sweet-to listen
To the soft winds gentle swell,
And think we hear the music
Our childhood knew so well;
To gaze out on the even,
And the boundless fields Of air,
And feel again our boyhood's wish
To roam, like angels, there
There are many dreams Of gladness,
That cling around the past
And from that tomb OF feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast
The forms we loved so dearly
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon.
Those bright and gentle maidens
Who seemed so formed for bliss,
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such world as this;
Whose soft dark eyes seemed swimming
In sea of liquid light.
And whose locks Of gold were streaming
Der brows SO sunny bright:
Whose smiles were like the sunshine
In the spring time Of the year
Like the changeful CLEANS Of April
They followed every tear!
They have passed-like hope--away-
All their loneliness has fled
Oh-many heart is mourning
That they are with the dead.
Like the brightest buds Of summer
They have fallen from the stem
Yet oh-it is lovely death
To fade from earth like them!
And yet-the thought is saddening
To muse on such as they
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away!
That the fair ones whom we love,
Like the tendrills Of vine,
Grow closely to each loving heart,
Then perish on their shrine!
And can we but think of these
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees arc waving Ger US
And the flowers are blossoming!
For we know that winters coming
With his cold and stormy sky
And the glorious beauty around US
Is budding but to die.
