PATRIOTISM IN THE DARK.-The Savannah
News, of the 18th inst, says that at ParodPs
farwell concert in Augusta, a few nights be-
fore, while Parodi and Mime Starkosch were
singing "'rhe Star Spangled Banner the gas
went out, leaving the company in darkness
Enchanted with the music, the audience re-
manned attentive to the end, when the song
was rapturously encored, and the ladies re-
peated the last two stanzas by the light of a
candle held from the side scenes.

all other men of mark is not free from the ro-
nance of love as well as war. Whilst law
student in New Orleans, he conceived warm
attachment for very interesting young lady,
who was born deaf and dumb. She had been
well educated, and was of very engaging man

sympathies and regard of all tender hearted per-
sons. With his characteristic originality and
peculiarly of feeling and sentiment Walker be-
came warmly enamored of this young lady. She
reclprocated his regard, and for some time they
were never happy unless together. He soon ac-

conversation, no doubt, adding zest to their en-

bold, daring, dauntless revolutionist and war
