The ssat.sl That saves Us.

Two painters, were employed to sresco
I'll. walls Of cathedral. Both stood on
a rade scaffeldinr, constructed Tor the
purpose, some forty feet from the floor.
One Of them was 50 intent upon his
work that he became wholly absorbed,
and, IN admiration, stood OF from the
picture, gazing at 1t with intense delight.
Forgetting where he was, he moved
back slowly, surveying critically the
work of, his pencil, until he neared the
edge Of the plank ca which he stood.
At this critical ncment his companion
turned suddenly, s,1d almost paialyzed
with horror, belfe'd his imminent peril
another instant, and the enthusiast would
be precniseted apon the pavement be-
meath. If he spoke to him it was GER

was equally sure Saddealy he regained

Aresident Of the ssGadsden PursAsse, =
which it is proposed 70 organize as ter
ritory under the name of Arizona, sends
the following brief description of the
natural resources Of the country 10 the
San francisco Herald:
From the geological indications, and
from actual de, elopements already made,
it is not improbable that this is the rich
est mineral district in North America.
Already several enterprising companies,
engaged in silver mining near this place,
notwithstanding the many inconvenieces
and difficulties resulting from our situs-
ton, and the absence OF an efficient gov
ernment to restrain evil doors, have sue
ceeded 80 far as to fully establish the fact
that they are in possession Of mines Of
extraordinary richness, which require on
ly time aud energy to return an ample re-
ward to the prorrietors, aud perhaps in
i,iate state Of things destined to rival
your golden Californis.
And 50 far from being barren waste,
there is perhaps within the limits OF the
proposed territory sufficient agricu tural
lands to sustain million Of people.
We have a variety Of climate and soil.
The bottom binds of the ella and its
tributaries are well adapted to the growth
of sugar and cotton, as well as all kinds
of grain and most of the garden vegeta-
bles. This is proven by the abundant
harvest gathered by the Pimo Indians
with their imperfect mode of cultivation,
always having profusc supply for them
selves, aud a surplus to sell to emigi ants
aud others passing on the road.
/ Tue farming lands in the vicinity Of
Tucson furnish an instance Of inexhaus-
| tible fertility not e1ualed even in Califor-
MIA. There are fields here which for
eight consecutive years have yielded
two crops annually--one of wheat, one OF
corn, and are at this time is productive
! as ever.
. Smut, rust and other diseases, which
blight wheat in most other countries. are
unknown here, and a good crop may be
relied upon if properly cultivated Fruit
trees thrive here, as the orchards OF Tue
son bear witness.
! The climate OF this place is like that OF
j Sacramento, consequently not as pleasant
as some parts of Caliiorns"
+ The writer says that the Apache Iudi-
ADS are the scou-e of the country, aud
tn, troops stationed there are ina lequate
to control then. He also says the cyun-
I try is greatly in need Of territorial govern
ment Oh account Of its isolation and in
creaSing population. aud that il already
has a larger population than Washington
or Nebraska had at the time they received
territorial government. There are 10
courts, higher than that Of the justice OF
the peace, nearer than Dona Una. New
Mexico, over three hundred miles distant
Hence the expense and trouble to obtain
redress for private wrongs, or to infie:
punishment upon public offenders,
amounts II denial OF tha. protection II
life and property to which every Ameri,
can is entitled.

Americanized Englishnan, who, one,and-

and now he has 500 acres of as hand

Should nothing befall it, the present

WHY HE DIDN'T VOTE.
From the Albany Evening Journal, |

We find the following letter in the Austin
(Texas) State Gazette, from the late Senator
Henderson, of Texas, giving his reasons for
not voting upon the Kansas Conference bill
PHILADELPHIA, May 2, 1868.
Major JOHN MARsHALL-My Dear Sir:-I
left Washington city on day before yesterday
evening, just after the final passage of the Kan
sas compromise bill. / did not vote on the bill
at its passage.
On the morning of the day the bill finally
passed, the President sent for me, and made
such an earnest and strong appeal to me to vote
for the bill, and aid in saving his Administra-
tion and the Democratic party of the North, as
to induce me to leave the Senate Chamber and
not to vote at all, as | would have felt bound to
vote against the bill if / had voted
We are unfortunate people; and when we
will be able to present the question in shape
to unite the majority of our people in standing
by their rights is hard to foresee.
Yours, very truly, HENDERSON.
This frank avowal of the Texas Senator is
significant. 1t demonstrates the truth of the

Monday afternoon, Deacon Bancroft found
an errand that called him over to the widows
IL chanccd to be about tea time. He was i'm.
portuncd to stay to tea and, somewhat to his
surprise actually did.
The polite widow, who knew the deacon's
weak point brought on one of her best mincc
| pies, slice of which her guest partook of with
zcSt.
You'll take another piece know, said she
| pcrsuaSivey.
Really, am ashamed said the deacon. and
he passed his plate 'rhe fact is,' he said, APP

where to stop
DO you call these nice, said the widow, mod
estly. Il only call them common. can make
mince pies, when | set out to, but this time
didn't have such good luck as usual
Il shouldn't want any better said the deacon,
emPhnticaily.
Then hope you ike them, ycu'll drop in
to tea often. We ought to be more ncighbor-
ly, Deacon Bancroft
Deacon Bancroft asscntcd, and he meant
what he said. The fact is, the deacon began TO
think the widow was very charming woman.
She was very comely, and she was such an ex-
celient cook BESIDES, he had no doubt in his
own mind that she was worth considerable
sum of money. What objection could there be

this question before her one evening. The
widow bluShed, profcssed to be greatly surpris-
ed--in fact she had never thought of the thing
in her lile-but, on the whole, She had thought
highly Of the deacon, and, to cut short the mat
ter, accepted him.
y month afterwards She was installed as mis-
tToss Of The dcacon's large house, somewhat to
the surprise Of the village people, who could not
conceive how She had brought him over.
Some weeks after tAc ceremony the deacon
vcntured to inquire about the pot of gold which
she had found in the cellar
Pot Of gold she exclaimed in surprise; Il
know of none
But said the deacon disconnected; YOU know
you asked me about whether the law could claim
it,
-, lor! deacon, only asked from c,o4oSitB'
And was that the reason you made inquiries

Certainly. What else could it be?
The deacon went out to the barn, and for
about half an hour sat in silent meditation
At the end of that time he calculated, as a clos
ing consideration, after all she makes good

1t gives me pleasure to state that the union
between the deacon and the widow proved a
very happy one, although to the end Of his life,
he never could quite make up his mind about

p. But worthy critic pray
In such pinch what shoaH the poet say?
THE SPIRIT OF POETRY.

There is quiet spirit in these woods,
That dwells where or the gentle South wind blows
Where, underneath the whitc-thom, in the glade
The wild-iowers bloom, or kissing the soft air,
The leaves above their sunny palms outspread.
With what tender and impassioncd voice
IL fills the nice and delicate car of thought,
When the iast-usherng star OF morning comes
O'er-rding the gray hills with goien scarf
Or when tile cowled and dusky-sundalcd eve,
In mourning weeds, from ont the western gate,
Departs with silent peace The spirit moves
In the green valley, where the silver brook
From its full lavcr, pours the white cascade
And, babbling low amid the tangled woods,
Slips down through moss-gown stones with endless
laughter.
And frequent, on the everlasting hills,
Its feet 90 forth, when it doth wrap itself
In all the dark embroidery of the storm,
And shouts the stern strong wind And here amid
The silent majesty of these deep woods,
Its presence shall upliit thy thoughts fom earth,
As to the sunshine and the pure bright air
Their tops the green trees lit.
Hence gifted barls
Have ever loved the calm and qnet shades.
FOR them there was an eloquent voice in all
The sylvan pomp Of woods--the golden sun
| he howcrs-the leaves-thc river OH its way
Blue skies-and silver clouds and gentle winds
The swelling upland where the sdelong sun
Asant the wooded Slope mt evening goes
Groves through whose broken roof the skv looks in
Mountain--and shattered cliff-and sunny vale
The distant observation-disclosures mighty trees
In many lazy syllable repeating
Their old poetic legends to the wind.

HE Philosophy OF LovE.-All men love
all women. That is the prin,d .tdcie aspect of
the case. The court of nature assumes the
law to be, that all men do so; that the individ-
ual man is bound to show cause why he does
not love any particular woman. A man. saws
one of my old back-letter aw-books, may show
divers good reasons, thus: He hath not
seen the person named in the endictment; she
is of tender age, or the reverse of that she
had certain personal disqualifcations, AS, for
instance, she is blackamoor, or hath an i'll
favored comtenance or, his capacity of loving
being limited, his affections are engrossed bv
previous conner and of other conditions
Not the less is it true that he is bound by duty
and inclined by nature to love each and every
woman. Therefore it is that each woman yir
tually summons every man to show cause why
he doth not love her. This is not by written
document, or direct speech, for the most part,
but by certain signs of silk gold and other ma
tcrials, which say to all men,-Look on me and
love, as in duty bound Thenthe man pleadeth
his special incapacity, whatsoever they NAV be,
AS, for instance, impecuniosity, or that he
hath one or many wives in his household, or
that he is of mean figure, or small capacity; of
winch reasonit may be noted, that the first is,
according to late decisions of chiefest authority.
SO far the old law-book. But there is note
from an older authority, saying that every wo-
man doth also love each and every man, except
that there be some good reason to the contra
ry; and a very observing friend of mine,
young unmarried clergyman tells me, that so
far as his experience goes, has reason to think
the ancient author had fact to justify his state
ment.
I'll tell you how it is with the pictures of
women we fall in love with at first sight. The
reason why man is not desperately in love
with ten thousand women at once is just that
which prevents all our portraits being distinctly
seen upon the wall They are all painted there
by reflection from our faces, but because all of
them are painted on each spot, and each one
the same surface, and many other objects at the
same time, no one is seen as picture. But
darken chamber and let single pencil of rays
in through key-hole, then you have a picture
on the wall. We never fall in love with wo-
man in distinction from woman, until we can
get an image of her through pin-holej and
then we can see nothing else, and nobody but
ourselves can see the image in our mental
caamera-obscura.-[ "a AutOcr@ Of the Breakfast

And she had large fortune in silver and gold.r
Whether attracted by her fairness or her
fortune, MIR. Muruaga, who possesses at all
events the advantage of not being Count, and
who is Secretary to the Spanish Legation at
Washington, commenced the career of atten-
tons which has created this romantic row. Mr..
Muruaga and Miss Corcoran met. it appears.
at several of those charming " hops" bv which
the Washington season is so gayy got over,
and on the splendors of whose crinoline and ice
cream the JenkinSes of some of our cotempor-
aries so delight to dwell. With each succeed
ing hop" their love hoped on 1t is no dis
paragement to the attractions of the lady to
say, that in which she had to encounter the Ju-
no-like richness of Mrs. Douglass beauty, and
the spirituelie and fawn-like facinations of Mrs.
Thompson, not to mention the lesser lights by
which these two great stars of Washington So
ciety are surrounded, and at an age at when
even the prettiest women begin to grow little
tremulous and uneasy, the devotion of the gay
and gallant Spanard was not unwelcome or
unprized. Forgetful of the favorite Injunction
of the great master of his art, Taleyrand,
Above all things, avoid too much zeal" Mr..
Muruaga dashed hotly on, and lost no oppor-
tunity to press his suit In the lady's rides, in
her visits, to friends or church, the shadow of
her lover was ever across her path, and the
work went loving gly on until in evil hour came
to Mr.. Corcoran one of those kind friends who
seem destined by perverse fate to raise up those
distractions, without which love would lose
with half its difficulties, all its charms.
Unsoftened by the memory of some similar
passage in his own early career, the old mans
anger rose. Accompanied by trusty friend,
the gallant and dauntess Senator Bright of In
diana, he sailed forth, and meeting the Young
Spaniard pacing in front of church in which
the lady was at prayer, accosted him in harsh
and hasty language. Mr.. Muruaga, instead of
regarding lightly any words which might fall
from an angry and disobedient father under
such circumstances, foolishly demanded an ex-
PLANTATION or retraction, which was fitly refused
and nothing remained but to fight. 1t is but
justice to Mr. Muruaga to state that he eagerly
courted a proxy, and solicited Mr. Corcoran TO
transfer his right of battle to some young foe !;
but, with the spirit inherent to his descent, Mr..
Corcoran declined to relinquish the pleasures
of the pistol to any other hand. The seconds
were chosen and all the arrangements made
for the mornings meet. In the mean time.
However, the fair cause of all this tumult avaied
herself of her fathers absence, at dinner at the
distinguished Senator Slidelrs to dispatch by
