Like flower she dwolt among us,
NurturedWith our purest love;
Her charms, the hoart Of each bcholder,
Aye, the coolest heart, could moyo.
As the sunbeam's sparkling brightness,
Gliding cen the darke.t gloom;
Love and cheer we're her attendants,-
Now they'rs rooping'o'er her tomb,
Oft when vexed with warTing passions,
Or when lonely sad and drcar, .s
Did her voice Of angels sweetness,
Quell and soothe this spirit.care.
Ere the crystal dews of morning,
Sparklcd meath the risen sun,
A blast swept Ger this bOauteoua flower,
And. dashed its petals to the ground. -.-.
.Ah, we miss this gentle spirit,
Oh, how much we ne.er can.tell,-
How our heart-throbs stopped in anguish
At her sad and mute farewell.
Yes, We miss her, ...aly miss her,
Miss her sweet voice N the choir;
Brt tits raised in holier anthems ).
Clearer, sweetor tones, up there.
Like note of far-of music,
Waited on Eolisn waveu,
Is tho sad, soft, thrilling feeling, 5,5

From the Holly Springs Miss, Republican.
Romance in Real Life.

Romance in Real Life.
Something like quarte' Of century ago
a amarriage took place at Holly Springs, which,
at that time, excited no little attention on
account OF the opposition manifested by the
relatives of the lady. The gentleman was
stranger in our midst, and, as his past
history and antecedents were unknown, the
opposition to the marriage seemed right and
proper. The lady, however, who was at the
time widow and of lawfal age, thoug ght diff
ferently, and resolved to marry MIR. b. in
spite Of them all. She was married, and,
meeting with no friendship from her rcla-
,ions the husband determined to.leaye Holly
Springs and return to bis home IN the North
west. ri.
A few weeks sitter their union, they arriv-
ed at Cincinnati and engaged rooms for tie
soiourn for some time in that city. The
baggage was brought up, and the husband
had the wiie's baggage put:nto the room, but
ordered his to be left in the public hall.
This excited no surprise st the time with the
wife, as nothing of an unkind nature had oc.
Cured between her and her husband, and
love seemed still to be running in its even
and onward channel. A few moments az
tcrward the husband feigned some excuse 10
leave for few hours, and the lady retired to
her room to await his return. He never re-
turaed.
Wien morning dawned the lady discover
Ell that she had been abap pdoncd, stranger
among strangers, without friends and with
out money. Her agony was so intense that
the interest of the boardcra of the hotel was
earnestly engaged in her behalf, and she
found many friends who not only sympath z,
ed with her. but seemed willing to. render
such aid and assistance as was necessary
Among the number Of boarders at the hote
WIS wealthy lady and her husband, on theiI
way t. Cuna. to see If the delightful climate
o. that seasirl island would not assist in re
storing the wife to health.
Tue LADY solicited Mrs. B. to accompany
her as companion and nurse which PROPOSE
ton was accepted. In a few days the arIy
reached Havana. and Mrs. B. having some
leisure time, from the sick bed, employed htr
self in making and fitting dresses. She soor
became an expert at the business, and had
more work than she could possibly do. In
few mouths she purchased stock Of ladies
goods, and from this small beginning it was
but few years before she became the pro-
pretress of one of the finest hotels in the
city, which she kept in almost Oriental mag,
nifcence.
Her hotel was, and we believe still is. ex
tensively patronized by the first class citizens
Of every nationality. She is now millionaire
and her charities, particularly to the people
of her own country, are unbonnded. She is
the friend Of the friendless, and her nam.
and charities will long be remembered by al
who visit Cuba. She has, however, never
forgotten or forgiven the cold-heartcd wretch
who so cruelty abandoned her at Cincinnati
aud looks forward eagerly to that day which
may give her the opportunity to be avenged
