The Wyandot pioneer. (Upper Sandusky, Ohio) 1853-1868, 1853-12-08
The Wife of John Mitchell.

The Empire, paper published in Sgd
ney, Australia, has very happy notice of
the exile, Mitchell, and his young, brave
and devoted wife. In the hour of the
patriots most severe trial, when the time
had come when he must brave the dark
est perils which beset the 'sreber' on his
path, and meet the fate he dared so bold
ly, his wife went to him in the prison cell,
adjured him to let no thought of her or
his children, from whom he was about to
be torn, distress him; but to go to his
doom as fearlessly as he had courted it,
for her heart was strong in the consola-
ton that he had played noble part for
Ireland, and the legacy he was about to
leave his children was more precious than
gold.
'sThe gifted and beautiful wife of the
exile, John Mitchell, arrived here on
Thursday, with her fine family of six
children, on her way to join her brave
husband in freedom, in free country.
In the present generation, perhaps,
Providence has not united man or wo
man more worthy ofeach other-a heroine
wife and hero husband. We know it
well from eye witness, how the indomita-
BILE energy and courage of that lion heart
ed man was tried in the fiery furnace of
revolutionary excitement. Well we know,
too, upon the same authority, the slow
force of circumstances that urged him,
like Hampden, step by step from the
quiet country life into the foremost posi-
tion-into the very gap Of desperation.
The famine with which social and polit-
cal misrule had inoculated that happy
land, his native country, came at last to
the inhuman crisis, which mothers fed up
on their own offspring, as in the horrors
of besieged Jerusalem; and we have
heard how he made tour in the Pro-
vinces to witness for himself the appalling
sciences of pestilence and famine, walking
among them like the man who had seen
helP--the sad and thoughtful Dante-and
then returned to Dublin, desperate, one
ideaed man-the leader of revolutiona-
ry movement. We do not, at this dis
tance, pretend to offer an opinion upon
his revolutionary project; we merely state
facts as they have often been narrated,
and. assign the motives which propelled
him into that career, in which he after
wards advanced with unfinching resolu
ton between the bayonet and the gibbet.
But how must the heart of that young
wife, the mother of brave mans chill
dren, have been tried to its utmost core in
the conflict between affection united with
maternal sollcitude, and what she con-
ceived to be her duty to her husband and
her country. Nobly, we are assured, she
stood the fiery ordeal, without word or
a sigh to cross his stern purpose, and even
participating in the halo of his intense ex-
citement.

True and Touching Incident.

True ana 1OuCnlES InclOents
The New Orleans Delta is responsible
for the following:
An official, on All-saints' Day, array
ed himself in his best apparel, and, at the
request of his wife, called the carriage to
visit the cemeteries. The husband, be it
promised, knew that his beloved, ere he
married her, was widow. AS soon as
they entered the gate of the said City of
Silence, a shade of melancholy passed ov-
er the lady's face, and clinging to her hus-
bands arm, she went TO a tomb, at which
she knelt and prayed for the repose of her
dear dead husbands s soul Tears flowed,
and plentifully; but the living husband,
though he felt little mortified at the
strong affection which his wife showed for
her first love, now sleeping his eternal
sleep, still forgave the outburst, and hur-
ried her from the spot. Soon, however
she knelt before another tomb, and again
uttered a touching orison for the repose of
her dear dead husband whose holy dust
there found a resting place. The hus-
band thought that this was a little more
than he bargained for, bat said nothing,
though grave were his reflections, as he
again led his wife from spot which
awakened sad remembrances. He had
not gone far, when his wife again turned
aside, knelt, and prayed as before, for the
repose of her dear husbands SOUL The
husband could stand it no longer, and ut
tering an inexcusable and unhusbandly
oath, said, sd--n it, madam, how many
husbands, in the Lords name, have you
buried7' Ere the accusing spirit had
flown to heavens chancery with the oath,
the thoughts of the wife were turned to
the things of the earth, earthly and she
answered, as onl y an experienced and pro-
voked woman could answer: Three, sir,
only; and that, it would seem by your
outrageous conduct, as one too tew.'

MANY of the party asserted afterward

Many of the party asserted afterward,
that she had appeared agitated and un-
easy during the supper: and some declar-
ed that they had observed her watching
her young husbands countenance with an
eye of terror and perplexity. Her maid,
too, affirmed, that she was quite certain
her lady's heart had failed, and that she
had some misgivings that evil awaited her.
when gave my lady her shawl and bon
net, she said, she shook like an olive leaf;
and when Iasked her if any thing was
wrong, all she said was: 'Madre di Dio,
pieta! pieta!' Mother of God, have pity
on meD
They travelled all night-at least all the
remainder of the night, for twas past mid
night when they started-only stopping to
change horses, and had arrived at Terni
to late breakfast, as Boboli had predic-
ted. Whilst the breakfast was preparing,
the young countess changed herdress; and
the maid inserted that she here again be-
trayed considerable agitation, and thatshe
heard her say to herself: 'Ahi. milo padre!
ahi, Giovanni!' (Alas, my father! alas,
my Giovanni!) The waiter and the host
who had attended them, remarked that
she ate nothing, swallowing only little
wine; and that the count himself appeared
to have equally little appetite. No con-
versation passed between them, till, sud
denly, her husband asked her if she was
ready. She started at the sound of his
voice, as if it were something unusual to
her; but Immediately rose from her seat,
and said, Yes
Come, then,' he said, and giving her
his arm, he conducted her down stairs
The horses for the falls had been ordered
by the servant Immediately on their arri-
val, and now were waiting atthe door; and
it was at the precise period our story has
nowreached, that we had looked out of the
window, and saw them enter the carriage
and drive away.
What did he say to you,' inquired of
the host, when he turned to speak to you
on the steps?'
He desired to have horses ready for
Spoleto, as they should start the moment
they returned from the falls
Your waiter says he will escape be-
cause he is noble--is that so?'
e possible { 1t is possible, } replied the
host, struggling his shoulders.
| But he did not escape, the young Count
Alessandro WAS condemned and ex-
ecuted; partly, however, through the
strong interest that Boboli made against
him Nothing more OIL the mystery was
ever disclosed, except to his confessor.
He died, and made no sign

SINGULAR TAsTE.--Last Saturday man
presented himself to the officers of the
Jacksonville (Ind.) Penitentiary, and
demanded the privilege (?) of being put
to work, saying that he owed the State
five years labor, and he was determined
to pay it. Upon being questioned as to
his right of admission, he stated that he
had been convicted at a recent term of
the Circuit Court held at Lawrenceburg,
of manslaughter, and had broken jail
Although reward was offered for his ar
rest, he had bafled pursuit up to that
time. His singular request was complied
with.

Washington News.

| washington NEWS
The Washington correspondent of the
Tribune says:
The war news produced great sensa-
ton with the Administration. The Pres
ident and Cabinet are intensely interes-
ted.
The Union gave an Extra to the pub
lie containing the news, and says, editori-
| ally, what the Administration feel: "a
general Continental war would seem to be
inevitable. But from the first, we were
disposed to believe that Gear would not
keep the ring and this opinion is still un-
changed. The pluck ofthe Sultan we new
er doubted. He is full of fight, and will
not submit to any conditions from his ad-
versary as long as Cossack foe treads up
on Turkish soil. Every American heart
mustbe enlisted for his success. Thegood
of every land must espouse the cause of the
oppressed against the oppressor, and give
it moral support. In such contest as
Russia is engaged in, she can have no
friends. If she has to make an ignomin-
lous retreat from the Principalities to the
tune of 'Rogue's March. enlightened hu-
manity will rejoice at the necessity which
occasioned the disgrace. We have as lit
tie confidence in her prowess as we have in
her integrity. The Serfi is far from being
the equal of the Turk in combat. The en-
gagements already reported are conclusive
on this point Thinks Turkey will be an
overmatch for the Gear, but if she wants
help, she will receive from France as much
as she desires.
The Message is nearly completed, and
will be sent in advance to distant newspa-
pers, all rumors to the contrary notwith-
standing.
Mr.. Bosworth, the Postmaster of Troy,
has resigned. The report of his defalca-
ton is not credited at the Department.
Gen. Davis will probably be his successor.
Tie Hea1d correspondent says:
A good deal of feeling isexpressed here
az the bad taste of the British Minister,
Mr.. Champion, at Julien's concert last
evening. When Hail Columbia was
played, the audience followed sac example
set in New York, ana rose from their seats
The onl Y exception was in the case of Mr.
Cramp,on, who, occupying a prominent
position in the theater, saw fit to mark his
contempt by remaining seated. Were Mr..
Buchanan to act in such manner in Lon
don, when God save the Queen was play
ed, what would be thought of it.
