AN INCIDENT
lnthe Life of n Celebrated Painter.


On glorious morning in the summer
of 10, a youth might have been seen
walking with g free and easy step up the
steep ascent and through the difficult
passes of the heights of the Abruzzi, one
of the loftiest peaks of the southern Appe-
mines. He was apparently about nine
teen. His form was slight and graceful,
his face was lighted up with the inspira-
tion of genius, while the profusion of
glossy ringlets, which foated over his
shoulders, impaired to his whole person
girlish appearance. Under his arm he
carried portfolio, which clearly showed
his profession. AS he continued to mount
the dark and frouning rocks, he would fire.
.quently pause to contemplate the splendid
prospect which was spread out before him.
In the distance, the blue waters of the
Mediterranean and Adriatic Seas Law
calm and placid as sleeping child. The
hills and wales were crowned with orange
and lemon groves, whose delicious fruits
waved and sparkled in the sunshine, ruin
ed castles, towers, and bridges, around
which hung much of mystery and gloom,
were everywhere scattered over the land
scapc; while the clearness of the atmos-
phere and the soft feecy clouds which
hung over all completed the enchantment
of the scene.
The soul of the youthful painter seemed
filled with the glorics that nature had SO

For the Literary Echo.
The Drunkard'S SOIilOOuy.

BY GENEVA.
In hour of sad reminisence,
think with tears of penitence
My sin and wild extravaganza,
Upon the direful consequence
Ofmy great intemperance,
l think of former innocence.
Ofyouthful days when young romance
Cast DER my path its radiance,
When hope was bright, and affluence
Was mine. When my intelligence,
Uprightness and benevOlence
Obtained for me the confidence
OF men of note and eminence.
Then l enjoyed the influence
OF home and social conference,
Unmarried by dark malevolence,
BY guilt or wild intemperance.
But now alas the variance
Betwixt those days of opulence,
And my present state of findigneco.
Gone is my former competence,
At home am nuisance,
My purse is empty now of pence,
My Uranium almost void of sense,
My ragged, poor habilimcnts
Are soiled with dirt, and full of rents.
Friends meet me with indifference,
Nor can get by any pretense
Even few, poor, paltry cents.
Alas in such an exigence
Where shall | seek deliverance?
What can do? I'll 60 at once
And join the Sons of Temperance.
