were the wonder of the world This, he ac-
complished during long imprisonment when
he had only violin with one string to prac-
tice upon. Surely, imprsonments are, after
all, great blessings They hsve proved in
many signal instances, the .prodgious power of
isolation and uninterrupted application. Be-
hold Kossuth, acquiring the English language
while in prison. with only a Bible and a
Shakespeare Behold Socrates, during those
thirty days, developing the grounds Of his
immovabIe conviction of the Immortality 0f
the soul. Behold GaliIeo, in the loneliness Of
dungeon, pondering upon his great discovery
Of the gravity of the air, and his inventions
of the cycloid and the pendulum Behold
Casanova sharpening his ingenuity in his
solitude. Imprisonment has done great deal
for others of later period. Voltaire was
always in the Bastile or escaping from it.
Louis Napoleonhas had the wholesome applica-
ton Of an Imprisonment. Even the Chevalier
Wykof awoke from imprisonment to fine him
self famous One seems almost tempted TO inn
plore imprisonment, and if necessary. sentence
of death, if thereby one could achieve such
greatness as has thus been achieved. ia
But to our wonderful! composer and musi-
clan, Paganini. Had he been poet" says
a cotemporary, "he would kav rivalled the
most wild and fanciful creations Of Germany,
and the sweetness, submity and pathos Of
Shakespeare. His mind seems TO run into he
same strange iancies that are displayed by
Moritz Retsch, in his illustration of Goethe,
Schiller and Shakespeare"
| fancy that Paganini held that position in
the musical world, which John Randolph OF
Roanoke held in The political world. He was
a wonder, an enigma, fantastic creation OF
mind and matter, whose laws we're unlike the
recognized laws which govern mankind. He
was sublime and groesque-angeIc and de-
moniac-as inferior in some things as he was
superior in others--a perpetual riddle to the
age in which he lived Elfn more then 'hu.

bride, and taken up his habitation on the bor-
ders Of the Shadowy Land.

A LITTLE TOO JUBILANT.

The friends of Judge Douglas, says the
Democratic IN. H. Standard, who, in this
State, are also the enemies of the Admins,
tration, whatever may be their pretenses to
the contrary, are little too jubilant over
the victory which he has gained in Illinois
These sanguine and inconsiderate worship
pers of the "Little Giant" seem to think il
foregone conclusiony that he is to be nom
mated at Charleston for the Office of Presi
dent, and elected, in 1860. ~
We think those exuberant gentlemen are
a little ahead of the times. They will, when
they get little cooler, find that the little
Judge has not that firm and strong hold Oh
the great body of the Democracy of the
Union which they imagine In the first
place, he undoubtedly owes his success in
Illinois to the votes of republicans sympa.
thizing with him. And in the next place
the great body of the Democracy of the
Union adhere to the President. At this
day the friends and supporters of Mr.. Buch-
anan comprises three fourths of the Democ
racy of the Union. They will not be rode
over and trampled upon by the jealous recu
SAINTS who, with their patron and leader, have
defeated them and the Administration which
they have sustained.
We caution these exhilarated Douglas
men to abate little of their sauguine expec-
tations Their favorite cannot be elected
President, in 1860, without the consent Of
the buchanan men. 1t not very probable
that they will give their consent for his ole-
walton to the exalted honors of the Presi.
dency quite so soon as 1860. They may re.
quire little probation. We do not say but
they may consent in 1864; but, as at pre-
sent advised they will insist upon some other
man for the next Presidential Term.

MISSIONARIES TO UTAn-The Phladelo
phia North American thinks the present a
favorable time to send missionariCs to Utah,
to Christianize The Mormons. The Saints
will not be likely to regard this proposition
as very complimentary to their professed
sanctiry That paper says:
"Here is an admirable opportunity for
benevolence of any kind to exercise itself.
Good men, and-better still good and true
women, who are prepared to endure, meeky
and courageously, hardships, toll, danger,
and, perhaps, insult and ingratitude-women
of the same temper as Florence Nightingale
will find the Mormon country just the
place for them. They must be prepared to
suffer and work, unknown and unrewarded
Of men; but still enjoying the secret con-
seriousness Of doing good, They will find
thousands of unhappy sisters, and thousands
of unhappy children almost uqcared for ;
thousands of poor, ignorant and distressed
people, whom they may teach to cal them
blessed. With such protection asthe feder-
alaauthorities will now, we trust, afford in
Salt Lake City, we believe that benevolent
and Christian effort mny, with safety, be
made amongst the Mormons, and with the
happiest results"

TUE CHAMPIONSHIP OF SAyANNAH.--For
the second time within the present year has
our city been disgraced BY prize fight
On yesterday morning, John Manning and
Aa0ch Robinson met in G the ring, on q
green just south Of the Gulf Road depot,
and fought seven rounds. Bothwere badly
bruised, but which was victorious we did not
feel sufficiently interested to learn. There
was considerable betting. and large crowd
collected to witness the disgusting combat.
It is an unpleasant duty to lay before our
readers the fact that such an affair had been
perpetrated in a city where there is so little
Of the bravado as we claim for our own, and
we do it with feelings Of the deepest repug-
nance. We look upon such displays OF mere
brute force and obstinacy asrevolting to every
sense Of humanity, and we hope the partic-
ipants will meet with such punishment as
their crime against good order and society
deserves. Republican, 9th. ssiss s-srsf

I Al CIEReYMAN's. WIFE IN Luck. ---At a
recent wedding breakfast in Liverpool, the
brides father handed to her note of $1,000,
which the lady very properly transferred to
her husband, he deposited it in bis waist
coat pocket along with i5 note, intended
for the ofic;ating clergyman. Before de-
parting for the wedding tour the bridegroom
hanoed the clergyman one Of the notes in
requital for his services, and gave the other
note to his father for safe keeping. On his
arrival at home the clergyman ESQ the story
goes) presented his wife with the note, as he
had previously promised to do, for the purs
pose of purchasing q new dress her aston
ishment was great on unfolding the note to
fnd the amount was $1,000. The clergyman
desired to repair the error, but his wife
would not listen to such an act Of impolite-
ness. 8e gs

ExCAvATloNs FROM THE Ruins OF CAR
THAaE.-A private letter received in this
city from iIunis, Algiers, states that on the
10th Of October, H. y. NJ, steamer Supply
arrived at that port from Malta, for the pur-
pose Of taking on board forty five cases,
containing Mosaic and Puuic Inscriptions,
which were taken from theruius of Carthage.
Some Of the Mosaics are represented as be-
ing quite beautiful and'of large size-one
piece measuring fifteen feet by SIX feet. The
cases generally measure about eight feet
square. Besides the inscriptions several
pieces of statuary andarchitecture, were also
put on the Supply. These articles are to be
taken toIondon and placed in the Museum
there. Both the English government and
people seems to take great interest in the
excavation of these ruins, and the former
has been liberalin supplying money for the
purposa.--WaSktngtop Star. 5 ns

THE MAPLE GROVE.

THE MAPLE GROVE.
by WIN. p. BRANEAN.
In memory lives the blessed night,
We wandered down the maple grove,
When Luna, with her mellow light,
Shone sweetly on our plighted love:
Whilst stars. within the azure dim,
Grew pale in gazing on our eyes,
And scenes no alien art could linn,
Became our transient paradise. 0
With arms encircled round thy waist,
Thy head reclining on my breast,
With gentle force and eager haste
My lipstO thine were fondly pressed;
What. blessed heart-throbs then were ours,
What heavenly rapture-joys divine
What bliss was born within those bowers
For thou vast mine-forever mine
From vineclad slopes the streamlets thri,Pd
A music on the charmed air,
AS sweet as thy dear voice that filrd
The holy night with heavenly prayer;
Lest envious zcphyrs, unaware,
Should trespass on thy ssmatchless charms
| stood thy guard, with jealous care,
And clasped thee safe within my arms.
Twas there, and thus, told my love,
Twas then we pledged our troth for aye,
Beneath that blooming maple grove,
Upon golden night ia May;
The stars that gazed upon our eyes
The moon that looked so pale aud lorn--
We're fading in the azure skies,
That rounded up that morrow morn.
What yearning hours have passed away,
Since we were wandering side by side,
Adown the maple slopes of May
Upon blessed eventide s1
Yet in my dreams I clasp thy form
And Hiss those ruby lips of thine
Still press thee to my heart as warm,
And reyel thus in joys divine.

The FIRST LONG TAILED CoAT.-Ws do
not believe that any boy ever put on his
first long tailed coat withouta sense Of shame.
He first twist his back half off looking at it
in the glass, and then when he steps out of
doors itseems to him as if all creation was
in broad grin. The sun laughs in the sky;
the cows turn to look at him; there are faces
Iat every window, his very shadow mocks
him; When he walks to the cottage where
Jane lives, he dares not look up for his life.
+gIie very boards creak with consciousness Of
the strange spectacle, and the old pair of
rautalOons that stopa little in the garrett
window, nod with derision file is obliged
ito pass group of men and boys, the trial
assumes its most terrific stage; his legs get
all mixed up with embarrassment, and the
flap of the dangling appendage is felt upon
them, moved by the mind of his own agita-
ton; he could not feel worse were it % dish
cloth worn as a badge of disgrace 1t is q
happy time for him when he gcts to church
and sits dowa with his coat tail under him

children will ask him to "swing his loug-tail

THE EMpTY cRAnLE.

The death of little child is to the moth
er's heart like dew on plant from which a
bud has just persisted. The plant lifts up its
head in freshened greeness to the morning
light; so the mothers soul gathers, from the
dark sorrow through which she has passed,
frightening Of her heavenly hopes.
AS she bends over the empty cradle and
fancy brings her sweet infant before her, a
ray of livine light is on the chefub face
It is her son STILL but with the seal Of immor-
taity on his brow. She feels thai heaven is
the only atmosphere where her precious flow
er could unfold without spot or bemish, and
che would not recall the lost. But the anni-
veFsary of his departure seems to bring his
spiritual presence Lear. . She lndulgss in that
tender grief which soothes, like an op ate in
pain, all hard passages and caresain lifs.onil
The world to her is no longer filled with
human love aud hopei in the future, so glori
ouso with. heavenly love and joy; she has
treasures of happiness which the worldly,
unchastened heart never conceived. The
bright fresh flowers with which she has dec
GRATED her room. the apartment where bel
infant died, are mementoes of the far brighter
hopes now dawning on her dreams
She thinks Of the glory and beauty Of the
new Jerusalem, where the little foot willnev-
er find a thorn among the .fowers to render
a shoe necessary, Nor will apillow be want
ed, for the dear head is reposng on the
breast Of the Savior, and she knows her in
fant is there in that world Of eternal bliss
She has marked one passage iu that bool
now emphaticslly to her the world Of life
now lying closed on the toilet table, whicl
she daily reads s'Suffer little children t.
come unto me, for of srch is the kingdom
of heaven"
