OF Music to the perturbed spirit is Esoil TO "a
the angry waters. In the wearest and lonelicst- i
hour, a.gush Of melody is like sunbeam which
leaps like singing fountain into the darkness
of troubled thought. A familiar bird note--a
strain OF olden tunes melody--the laugh Of a ..
chIld--the carol Ola brd--Ghe beating ofrain. "a
drops on the roO.-wl Ii come back with SOL many
earlier and Fighter associations, that the sinewy
spirit grows young again and turns with new
energy to the life encounter. A single sweep
across a harp string has often banished a clead
of dark and bitter fancies. And they tell
that there is world full of sweet melody and
its sky without cloud! -..r ~. -,

one or two such exqEisltely delicate and beautiful
paragraphs-so womanly, and true-that we
"cannot choose' but extract them for the pleasure
of our readers. Thus says the Mobile Advertiser
and we agree with the editor that the woman
who could thus write has heart as tender and
susceptible to all pure and loveable impressions as
her intellect is clear, and her pen polished and
elegant. Speaking of the view at Nalant, she
eXclams:
"What shall | say to give you the faintest idea
of its beauty for it is grand and glowing yet still
beautiful, beyond the power of human pen.7-

then the waves in calm summers day come

must oppose the force of winters stormy sea; and
the waves IN their joy fear lest the gulgling Of
their deep, deep love, should awaken and rouse
too soon its latent power
Gas | gazed upon it, thought it an epitome of
woman's life and love. There stood, eternal, the
rocks, calm in their suen grandeur-type of man,

grily and sullenly he throws her from him, again
and again; until the winds are husbed, the tides
of passion ebb and at his feet she sinks her spent

Mr.. Flournoy and the Test--0n Both
My Sides,

1t seems that Flournoy is on both sides Of
the Test question, and at the time Of his
nomination, was playing two handed game
with the delegates. II is well understood
at Fayette, that he told Hancock he was in
the right track; to others, he said he was
with the Banner on the Test, but could not
stand Gardenhire at all. Again, he told
others that he was in favor Of the Test, and
that the Banner was OF the platform. The
delegates from this county were divided on
the Test, and Flournoy so shaped his course
as to please both parties. We suppose in
canvassing the district, he will speak to
suit the location he happens to be in. Our
information from his speaking above, goes
to show that he is on the Wing platform, so
far as Internal Improvements are concerned,
and was repeating Mr.. Lindley's speeches
against jackson, last summer. Our cor
respondent thinks he has got hold of the
Wing platform and mistakes it for the de-
mocratic. There is considerable excitement
in this county to hear Mr.. Flournoy speak,
by both Wings and Democrats, though a
number Of the latter, who perhaps know
him best, would rather he would not come
at all. We are anxious 10 hear him, and
hope he will come.
