A SINGULAR STORY.

A correspondent Of the National Era
says that he translated the following article
from the Magazine Universal, published in
Paris. AS the scene Of the story is placed
in Washington, it would not be very diff
cult to ascertain whether il be fact or fic-
ton.
| am about 10 recount story, which like
many others of the same kind, Mr.. Thomp-
son, missionary, has lately told in pub.
lie meeting held on the subject of slavery.
A young physician Of much merit ard
knowledge made journey from his native
town in one Of the northern states, to
town in Mississippi. This young man,
whose name was Willis, took lodgings in
furnished house, The mistress of it, a
young woman about twenty years old, in
spired in him the most ardent love. AL
though the color of the woman was not the
purest white, the doctor having no preju-
dice against the colorcd race, offered her
his hand, which was accepted. The mar
riage took place almost secretly, and the
happy couple went soon afterwards to es-
tablish themselves in Washington, in the
District of Columbia.
They had not been there long, where
they lived peaceably and retired, when one
morning an individual, who had all the
appearance ofa gentleman, presented him
self at DR.. Willis's under the pretencc of
business. The conversation proceeded,
when the stranger addressed the following
indiscrect questions to the doctor:
"Did you bring woman with you from
the South sir! 2"
| "No sir; do not understand YOU"
| "How. :" rejoined the stranger, "did not
your wife come with You from Mississip-
pi"
81 believe she was born in that country"
said the doctor.
"Well, your wife, as you call her, is my
slave and unless you pay me Immediately
nine hundred dollars for her purchase, l
will advertise her tomorrow as a runaway
slave. In fact, she is worth thousand
dollars, at least but as you have married
her will abate something"
"Your slave ~ exclaimed the astonished
doctor, ''that is impossible"
"Whether you believe me or not" cried
the other, ssyou must give her up or pay
the money. II, in twenty-four hours, the
money Is not sent to my hotel, promise
you, my dear sir, that you will see the
name of Mrs. Willis in the newspapers, as
that of fugitive slave"
AS soon as the man was gone, the doctor
went to his wife, whose good qualities, vir.
tues and graces rendered her dear to him
"My dear angel" and, "when we wert
married, were you slave?"

time shedding abundant tears.
"Why did you not tell me before thu
ceremony was performed z"
81 did not dare do it. Could have eX
pected you would have allied yourself to
slave"
"Well, now, know it. l will Civ
the nine hundred dollars required; for
love you too much TO consent to a separa
. tion."
During this short dialogue, Mrs. Will
was laboring under the most lively aglta
; ton. She asked her husband TO describ

did as exactly as possible then he aske

DIRoE FOR THE BEAUTIFUL.

BY n. ELLEN GoopMAN.
Softly, peacefully,
Lay her 10 rest;
Place the turf lightly
On her young breast:
Gently, solemnly.
Bend DER the bed
Where ye have pillowed
Thus early her head.
Plant young willow
Close by her grave
Let its long branches
Soothingly wave:
Twine 4 sweet rose-,rce
Over the tomb;
Sprinkle fresh binds there
Beauty and bloom.
Let a brigh, fountain
Limpid and clear,
Murmur its music,
Smile through tear
Scatter its diamonds
Where the loved lies
Brilliant aud starry,
Like angles eyes
Then shall the bright birds
On golden wing,
Lingering ever,
Murmuring sing;
Then shall the soft breeze
Pensively sigh
Bearing rich fragrance
And melody by.
Lay the sod lightly
Over her breast;
Calm be her slumbers,
Peaceful her rest
Beautiful, lovely,
She was but given,
A fair bud to earth,
To blossom in heaven.
