Correspondence ollie Guardian.

NEW ORLEANS, LII; AP1H IL; -e"e'
Dear Guardian: Perhaps some OF your
numerous readers would like to hear how
affairs move on in the Crescent city, n0w
the metropolis Of our country; if so, you
can inform them that VIC received, with
the utmost GOODNESS imaginable, without
being at all frightened. the dispatches
purporting to be by telegraph, stating
that seven Of Uncle Abes men Of war
were waiting outside of the Charleston
6H. Bar for te TODD tide to pay their respects
to Gen. Bea1rcgard.
Everything here is being placed on a
regular war footing. Gov. Moore went
down to-day to inspect the forts, which
will soon be so strongly garrisoned and
fortified as to render it impossible for any
force to enter the Mississippi river.
Our distinguished fellow-citizcn and sol
dicr Col. A. H GLADDEN. is rapidly raising
a regiment of infantry, Of which he takes
command, under the commission of the
Southern Confcdcracy. Several compa-
nics have. already left this place for Pen
sacola, among whom the Zouaves are very
conspicuous. They are the most fantastic,
fierce, daredevil looking set of men in
in their tout ensemble that ever rshouldcred
q musllc, in this country, and they wall
doubtless astonish the natives wherever
they make their appearance, and most
likely will astonish some foreigners, if they
are called into the field OF battle. They
arc the exact counterpart of the zouaves
of France, and mostly composed of French
creoles. The officers give their com
mands in that language.
On tic 18th instant the proposals for
the five million loan will be received, and
it is thought that it will be cargerly ta-
ken even at premium by the capitalists
here, such confidence is there in the in
vestmcnt.
Business of all kinds begins to be less
active as the summer draws on, war grows
more certain.
During the two weeks past we have
had the usual spring racing carnival, and
there has been: considering the Z" hard
times" most excellent display of stock
and interest.
The seasons of the opera and theatres
will close in few days, and the pal
which summer usually spreads over this
Justlng city will be rendered two folc
more dismal by the absence of so many O.
her sons engaged in the defence of theil
country. Bella.

Amusing Love Affair.

Gulu6lub ACVC 1Auoeil'
The London correspondent of the New
Orleans Delta relates the following:
A good sell is related of q wealthy
banker here, who IS very good naturcd,
but is inclined to be a trife fast in his
views of life. Hc had favorite clerk,
a young man, about twenty-one, remark
ably handsome, modest and highly intel
lectual. For these qualities, he was liked
by every one, and the, banker did not cs
cape the general feeling of good will.
The banker, on Sunday afternoon, when
no one was expected, would occasionally
ask the young man to visit his family at
his suburban villa, as the conversation of
the young man was so correct and clcv-
er it could not but be Of advantage to his
children. This was mistake evidently.
but it was q good-naturcd error, and
VIC can only wish. all of us, that there
were more committed. have not men
toned that there was beautiful daugh-
ter. of nineteen summers; but that may
always be understood. There were OF
course no attentions on the part OF the
young man, other than extremely deli
cate reserved and proper. The youth,
in. spite Of two or three days invitation
to the bankers scat to breath fresh air
and clear his lungs of London smoke,
was evidently very i'll, and though he
declared himself well and robust, the
banker shook his head.
Il cannot make out what is the mat
ter with my clerk said the banker to
confrerc, who was in his bacl, Office with
him, after the youth had just brought in
some papers.
"Wcll, you arc rather green, I should
say for man of your time Of life and cx-
pcriencc,' said the banker number two.
Don't yon know what's the matter
He's in love-
0In love. He is modcsty and propric-
ty itself
81 tell You it Isl fact, and with rich
old fellows daughter: who would no more
think of having him for son-in-law than
you would
.:oh, the naughty old fool! Ny clerk
is as good as his daughter, and be hanged
to him. Thank you for the hint
Soon as the banker number two had
disappeared, the clerk was called in.
$50, sir, you are in love, and pining
away for the object of your affection
that's yonr secret, is it? Why did you
not tell Inc before SIR?
The youth was silent.
Well, my boy. pity you; but I will
give you piece Of advice. If the daugh-
ter is fair. she is worth running risk for.
Look here, there are $500 and two
months leave of absccnsc. Run away
with the girl. Bah! don't look so stupid
[ did the same before you, and it has not
hurt me-"
I'll c clerk fell upon his knees and was
upon the point of making clear breast
of it. when the old man rose and left pre-
cipitatcly, to avoid scene. The young
man considered and acted, and the consc-
oucncc was that the next day week there
was no daughter at the dinner table OF
the banker at the country house. The
house was in CONSERVATION, and the
search made for her in all directions. A
note, however, was found on her dress
ing-tablc, conveying the customary prayer
for forgiveness, and note, enclosed from

The Zouaves of Now Orleans, now at
Pensacola, arc thus noticed in the Delta
of Saturday :Ys
There was great crowd yesterday on
Lafayette Square to witness the reyisw
of the Second Company of Zouaves on the
eve oftheir departure for Pensacola. The
company mustered over one hundred, and
with their close shaven heads, their exact
Zouave uniform, their brace Of veritable
vivandieresin front, and their stern deter
mined, rough aspect bore striking re-
scmblance to the original, the invinclble
heroes of Algiers and the Crimea. They
are no holiday soldiers, but regular dare
devil fre-eatcrs, who will have no need
for gun-powder and balls when they can
get at the enemy with their sword bayo-
nets. They are just the fellows to charge
the deadly breach which Bnagg's colum-
bad willsmalle in the walls of Fort Pick
ems, when the ball is opened.

SUICIDE OF STEPHEN VAN RENssELAR
JR.-NIr Stephen Van Rensselar, we'll
known citizen of New York, committed
suicide on Monday night, in the drinking
saloon No. ATS Broadway, in that city,
kept by Elizabeth Hoyt. lie went into
the above saloon, and calling all persons
present up to the bar, invited them to
drink with him. When his liquor was
set before him, he took from his pocket a
phial containing laudanum, and poured a
quantity of the poison into his glass. He
then said to his friends, this is my last
drink" and Immediately swallowed the
contents of the tumbler. A physician was
speedily procured, and every remedy was
applied to remove the drug from his
stomach, but without success, as he cxpi-
red about one o'clock. The deceased was
at one time considered one of the wealth
thicst men in the State, owning an i'm
mense tract of land in the vicinity of Al
bany, in addition to his other property.
He was the titular deccndant of the Alba
nv PATRONS Of that name, but his disso-
lutte habits for few years past have
brought disgrace upon the entire family.

"Phon;x, fabled bird Of antiquity, when

means which Natures instinct taught it..
All plumago, and its form of beauty,

and chambers of decay would the fcdg-
ling come, with its eyes turned toward
tho sun, and cssaying its dark velvet
wings, sprinlllcd with gold and fringed
with silver, on the balmy air, raising a
little higher, until at length, in the full
confidence of flight: it gives cry ofjoy,
and soon becomes u glittering spcck in

So rises the spirit from the ruins of the
body, the funeral urn which its Maker
built and death frees. So towers away
to its home, in the pure clements fspir-

proud wingsin the fountain Of everlasting
bliss.
So shall dear. precious humanity, sur

So beautiful shall the unchanged soar
