A Beautiful ApostrOphe 10 the Mem
Ory of BYRON,

Grace Greenwood, in her late visit to
Europe, Of course. paid visit 10 New.
stead Abbey, in England, the we'll.
known residence Of Lord Byron. In
speaking Of the event she beautifully and
touchingly alluIes to the love Of the po.
csfor Mary Chaworrh:
"Strangely sorrowful, almost agoniz.
ingly regre,ful, were the thoughts which
swept over my mind, wave nftsr wave,
and shook my heat like a tempest, as
stood in the place where the young poet
passed many hours of silent thought, ii
may be Of lonely wfetchedness. =.
never before so deeply felt how passing
mourrful was the story Of Byron's first
and only love. That Mary Chaworth
returned the passion Of her young poet
lover. have not doubt; but. like the
Montagues and Capulets, the Horses Of
Chaworth and Byron were at feud. Ma.
~ had not the strength and truth Of Ju.
liet, and so they were parted-a separ
alton by far more pi,eous for her, and
more fatal 10 him then death amid the
full summer brightness Of happy love.
This, not Shakspearc's, was The true.
soul tragedy. Might she not have re.
deemed even his wayward and erring
nature, by the divinity Of q pure love
and steadfast faith? But it was not TO
be. Mary bestowed her hand upon
man Of whom little better can be said
than that he ranked among the most
eminent sPortsmen Of the day lived, it
is said. 10 weep wild tears over the
words which have linked her name in
sorrowful immortality with her lovers,
and died in broken. .heartedness, at last,
while he, grown reckless, restless, aud
defiant, the very core Of his heart turned
to bitter ashes, forgetting his God, and
distrust!ng and despising his brother,
swept on his glorious, shameful, sor.
rowful and stormy career, till the sha.
dows deepensd, and the long night clos.
cd in.
"The tablet raised 10 the memory Of
Byron. by his sister Augusta, is plain,
and 30 in excellent taste. As stood
on that rude slab. in that dismal and
nloulLy old church. was struck most
painfully with the miserable un6tness of
all the surroundings Of his tomb, who
loved all beauty with poets intense
passion. l could not believe that that
grand head, with ita clustering. dark
curls, those eyes Of strange brightness,
and the lips Of proud beauty, those fair,
patrician hands, and that fiery and
princely heart, were darkness at my feet.
Better would it been TO have laid him
where he willsd to lie, by his faithful
'Boatswain,' in the Vault at News,ead." 81

Within the range ofhuman ken. there
is nothing that God has done SO grandly
as Man. 1t was His last and his best
work. The heavens and the earth. the
waters and,the mountains, the 6rmamen,
and armies Of cloud, are Insignificant
matters in comparison with the meanest
Ho,tcnto, that ever stupidity gozed upon
them. All the force Of Gods heavenly
army, the bright procession Of glittering
stars, wheeling in space and moving in
silence along theirappointed ways upon
paths which none can see, but from
which, through ages, they never wander
nor stumble therein; the pomp Of this
steller, host, hammered with light. is
transcendent. But every globe is but a
huge deadness. They neither think nor
choose, nor Joy nor sorrow: puleseless,
passionless, they swing through the cir.
cults struck by the hand Of God, for the
same reason that the shuttle darts, or
the ball from the unconscious bat, or the
shuttlecock between two battledores.
But, within the nearest man, there lives
a nature on waich all eternity may work
without fully developing it. The. in.
tellect, tho soul, the affections-they
are something Of God. All he''universe
is but their cradle, and these elements
in their lowest state in their fudest life,
are yet in value beyond all the fabric Of
ear,h,-Heny Ward Beecher.

A Romantic Affair.

A spanish boy, named Joseph Edward
Enc Pobdlo, has arrived at w ashington,
in charge Of Adams & Cos Express.
!, is said that about ten years ago,
while bathing on the coast near the
city Of Campeachy, Mexico, be, with FIVE
other boys were stolen by q gang Of
French pirates, who kept them four
years, and then sold them 10 merchant.
man, who kept them two years, took
them TO the city Of New Orleans, and
there sold them to q Louisiana planter
for the term Of their minority. Their
owner was about to resell him 10 ship.
master, to make sailors Of them, when
the boy Pobslo made his escape, and
worked his way to Lafayette, Indiana,
where he attracted the notice OF gentle.
man, who corfssponded with the Mexi.
can minister At Washington regarding
him. The minister became interested
in the story OF the boy, and wrote 10
have him iorwsrded, that he might re.
store him 10 bis parents, il they were

A valuable silver miEe has recent,
been opned on lands Of Thomas J. Wa
ters, in Gwinnet county, Georgia. |,
was discovered by a gentleman who
said he derived his informa. from o
traditionary account, handed down fol
many years, that there was an abandon
ed silver mine somewhere contiguous to
the Chat,ahooche. The pit. when open
ed. had the appearance Of having been
hastily filled up. Mr.. w. sunk shaft
forty feet in depth, and struck a very
rich vein. From various relics, such
as old iron implimen,s, commonly used
by pioneers, silver drinking cups, &C.,
which have accidently been found in
various sections Of Gwinnet county,
many intelligent persons are Of opinion
that the celebrated Spanish adventurer.
De Soto. must have passed along there
in his searches for the mineral wealth Of
the New World.

Religion In Russia,

II will be seen from the address be-.
low, issued by the Patriarch Of Moscow. i.
Of The Creek Church, 10 the soldiers,
that the Gear is mentioned before the
Almighty and Christianity in tha, pious
document:
Children Of the Gear, our Father. and
Of Russia, our mother! our brothers OF
army! the Gear, the country and Chris.
tisnily call upon you. The prayers Of
the church and the country accompany
you. Russia is again provoked by an
enemy who was vanquished under Cath.
crime II, under Alexander l, and under
Nicholas l. Already have your brothers
revived the old habit Of beating them by
land and by sea. II it be decreed by
Providence that you are TO see the enemy
in front of you, recollect, then, that you
are fighting for the most pious, Of Czars,
for your dear country, for the holy
church, against the persecuicrs Of Chris.
,ianily, against profancrs Of the holy
and venerated cities, which have seen
the birth, the passion and the resurrection
of Christ. Now, If ever, victory, glory,
benedic,ion and eternal benediction
are due to those who give their life for
their faith in God, for their failh'to their
Gear and their country. By faith you
will gain victory" Hebrews, ii. ls. J
You likewise, will conquer by faith.
We bid you farewell, with our prayers
and with the symbol Of our faith. Garry
with you and recollect the warlike
speech Of tho Czat.Prophet David:
"Salvalion and glory is in GoI."-

that the Phariseos believed in spirits

had spoken to Paul os the Pharisees

The Story OF Z Bonnet.

Whom 8. Paris, l had purchased one

display in nothing their characteristic
modesty and reserve moro than in bon.

promenade, retiring into profound depths
Of leghorn and lace. and sometimes
cloisteriug themselves in the shades Of
huge "ugliness."
Tho Psri,ion millincr Of whom I
purchased tho above named bonnet, who
was a reduced comtess, and had her arms
blazoned OH tho plafond Of the show
room, was so complsisant as to 60 into
ecstacies over the effect when l tried it
on, crying; "C'est jol! charmant par.

cularly so; and she. assured me il was
not dear; so took il, with no fearful
looking for Of Cockney Indignation,
surely. Well, as | decended from my

to accompany me looked little stuck
up; but concluded it was with aJmira.

it was. AT the station, while waiting
for the train, | had a strong suspicion
that q remark overheard OF "My eyes!
them is popies,' referred TO q trac in the
decorative way, belonging,o my bonnet.
In the railway carriage | found myself
an object Of rather curious regard-but
this attributed TO acertain foreign air |

and il was not till | was walking down

impudent youcg foo,man, as he passed

which quite ex,inguished my "slunner,' u

HEAVEN.

Oh, Heaven Is nearer then mortnls think,
When they look with trembling dread
Al the misty future that stretches on
From the silent home ofthc doad.
'Tis no lone isle on distant main,
No brilliant but distant shore,
Where the lovely ones who are called away
Must 60 10 return 10 more.
No. Heaven is near us, the mighty veil
OF fmornli,y blinds the eye,
That we see not the towering angel bands
On the shores Of eternity.
Yet OF, in the hours Of holy thought,
To the ,hirs,ing soul IS given
That power 10 pierce through the midst Of sense
To the bcauteous scenes Of Heaven.
Then very near seem its pcnrly gates,
And swectly its harpings full;
Till the soul is restless to soar away,
And longs for the angel call
know, when the silver cord is loosei,
When the vel! is rent away
Not long and dark shall The passage be
TO the realms OF endless day.
The eye that shuts in dying hour,
Will open the next in bliss;
The welcome will sound IN heavenly world
Ere tho frrewell Is hushed in this.
We pass from the clasp ofmourniug fricnds,
To the arms Of the loved and lost;
And those smiling faces will greet US then,
Which OIL earth we have valued most.
