FIma wishes US to " assist one of our
Older readers over few difficulties" In
Tennvson's " Dream of Fair Women" she
understands all but one of his illusions to
the fair ladies he met in the old wood
She desires to know to whom he refers IN
these lines:-
Morn broadened on the borders ofthe dark
Ere l saw her who clasped in her last trance
Her murdered fathers head"
The illusion has perplexed not few
besides our correspondent. In the reign
of Henry VIII, Sir Thomas More was be-
headed for refusing to take the oath of
supremacy" His daughter Margaret
twice broke through the guards who con.
Quoted him to the Tower, after his SEN
tence had been pronounced, to throw her
self into his arms. After his execution,
and when his head had been exposed on
London Bridge for fourteen days, she man
aged to procure it, and preserved it in the
most careful manner till her own death,
when, according to her last request, it was
buried in her arms. Marfaret the
wife of William Roper, was highly &C.
complished, and wrote elegantly, both in
Latin and English. The incidents we
have quoted illustrate her unbounded af-
fection and reverence for her father

TRUE LOVE AND LOVE OF LOVE-
Many women suppose that they love,
when, unfortunately, they have not the
beginning of an idea what love is. Let
me explain 1t to you, my dear lady
Loving 10 be admired by man, loving
to be .petted by him, and loving to be
caressed by him, loving to be praised by
him, is not loving man. All these may
be when woman has no power of loving
at all-they may all be simple because
she loves herself, and loves to be fiatter-
ed, praised, caressed, coaxed, as a cat
likes to be coaxed and stroked, and fed
with cream, and have warm corner.
But all this as not l0u8 1t may exist
to be sure, where there is love it gener-
ally does But it may also exist where
there is no love. Love my dear ladies
is sell sacrifice, it is life out of self and
in another. Its very essence is the pre-
ferrlng OF the comfort, the ease, the
wishes OF another to ones own, for the
love we bear them. Love is giving, and
not receiving. Love is not sheet of
| blotting paper or sponge, sucking in
everything to itself it is an outsprnging
fountain, giving from itself. Loves
motto has been dropped in this world as
a chance gem of great price by the love
lest, the fairest, the purest, the strongest
of lovers that ever trod this mortal earth,
of whom it is recorded that He SAID
at is more blessed to give than to re-
ceive." Now, in love there are ten re
ceivers to one giver There are ten persons
in this world who like to be loved and
love, where there is one who
knows hoao to lo0e.. That, oh my dear
ladies, is nobler attainment than all
your French, and music, and dancing.
You may loose the very power of it by
smothering it under load of early self
indulgence. BY living just as you are
all wanting to live-living to be petted,
to be f1attered, to be admired, to be
praised, to have your ownsway, and to- do
only that which is easy and agreeable
you may loose the power of self-denial
and self-sacrifce; you may loose the pow
er of loving nobly and worthyly, and
become mere sheet of blotting paper
all your life.-Piaak and Wate TYRANNY.

| How A WHOLE FAMILY BECAME BLIND.
There lived family in Dorchester
county, every dark-eved male member of
hlch for the past ffty-year, has gone
blind at the age of 30 to Is years. Those
with blue eyes escape the terrible aff1c-
ton. There is tradition about this
singular circumstance, which we lay
before our readers as we heard it: Some
sixty years ago, so goes the story, beau
tiful black eyed girl of twenty, from
some cause or other, lost her eyesight.
Her misfortune brought penury and want
with it. Being reduced to beggary, she
was wont to go about asking aims. Du-
ring one of her journeys she visited the
neighborhood in which resided the an
cestors of those who are now sightless.
Instead Of her helpless condition excit-
ing, as it shonld have done, feeling Of
sympathy, she was treated with ridicule
by some of the younger members of the
family her evil star had led her into. Two
Of the boys, as a matter of meIe deviltry,
took her out, promising to take her to a
place where plenty awaited. Instead of
giving her safe conduct they carried her
into swamp and left her. 1t is sa d
that she cried OUT, be eeching them to
put her on the public road, but they
needed not her lamentations. Finding
herself about to be deserted among the
tangled brushwood, sh turned her prayer
to a curse, asking her Maker, in her
revengeful anguish. to punish her hetray-
ers, by making their offspring for seven
generations as helpless as she was. 1t is
said that she was found dead in the
swamp, having persisted from hunger
and cold This may appear somewhat
romantic, but whether the traditional
part of it be false or true, it is assuredly
a fact that the male offspring of the fam
lily referred to, lose their sight as indi-
Gated. Hundreds of persons in Dorches-
ter county will verify it.

ADVICE TO SoLDIERs.-A cotempoary
has a few words of excellent advice to
soldiers. They are urged not to sell or
part with their discharge papers. The
new law of Congress so modifies the re-
quirements Of the homestead act that
soldier or sailor who has served ninety
days or more during the rebellion may
deduct his term of enlistment from the
five years settlement hitherto required to
perfect title. For instance, if he served
three years in the army or navy, he may
require a full title to quarter section
of public land by residence of two
years. There is evidence that the sharks
are preparing to wiring dishonest fortunes
out Of the law. Soldiers discharge ia
pers are in active demand at the west.
Either by falsely personating the right
full owner, or by selling back the papers
at an advanced price, the brokers hope to
perpetuate fraud on the government or
soldier, or both. The warning to all
soldiers, sailors or their widows or or
phans having possession of such papers is
to hold them firmly.

EQUINE SAGACITY-There is horse 81
the government corral at this place noted
for loosening the knot of the halter strap
with which he is tied. He will work
the strap loose with his teeth, and 60
about the corral just when he chooses.
There is we'll in the yard from which
all the government stock are watered.
Day before yesterday the pump-a force.
pump, worked by brakes-got out of
order, and no water could be obtained.
The animals were taken to the creek close
by for water. The horse referred to re-
fused to drink, was taken to his stall aud
tied as usual. In few minutes he DELHI
erately united his halter, walked over to
the pump, and, finding no water in the
trough where he was accustomed to drink,
at once seized the brake with his teeth,
and worked it up and down several times,
then iput his nose to the spout, evidently
expecting the water TO come. Again and
again, for nearly five minutes did be seize
the brake and work itgand then put his
nose TO the spout. Finding his efforts USE
less, he walked off, evidently disappoint-
ed. Several of the hands at the corral
and others witnessed the above, and can
testify to its correctness Austin Repu6-

ROBERT CHAMBERs.-RobertC Chambers
whose death was announced, Saturday,
from London, was one of the famous Ed
inburgh publishing firm of W. & r.
Chambers, to whom literature, history
ami still more the common people, are
greatly indebted The two brothers were
thrown Oh their resources in early youth
with but an elementary education. They
began life as proprietors of book stalls,
then of book stores, and William added
to his small printing establishment. The
union of their business occurred in 1882,
when Robert was 80 years old, and they
soon took rank among the first editors
and publishers Of Great Britain. They
founded periodical, the Edinburgh, at
terward Chambers Journal, which, in
1864, had circulation of 100000. They
had published many valuable series of
books for the people, all of high quality,
and they were in fact the pioneers of
cheap literature in the Island Robert
Chambers was more than an editor mere
ly. He had genuine literary ability, and
his life of Robert Burns is one of the most
valuable of biographies, He wrote and
compiled many works illustrative of Scot
fish history and customs, among them a
book Of songs and ballads, and histories
of James l." and the Rebellions of
Scotland" His first book was published
In his twenty third year.

PERMANENT EFFECTS OF STRONG
DRINK.-In the Herald of Health is an ar
ticle from which we clip the following, as
showing the evils of intemperance in a
new light, and adding another novel and
startling argument to the many already
advanced against the use Of intoxicating
liquors:
The history of four generations Of d
family, as sketched by NJ. Morcl, distin-
guished French writer, is full of instruc
ton in this matter. 1t is as follows:
First Generation The father was an
habitual drunkard, and was killed in a
public house brawl
Second Generation. The son inherited
his fathers habits, which gave rise to
mania, terminating in paralysis and death.
Third Generation. The grandson was
strictly sober, but was full Of hypochon,
drical and imaginary fears OF persecution
ETC., and had bomicidal tendencies.
Fourth Generation. The fourth in de-
scent had p very limited intelligence, and
had an attack of madness when sixteen
years old, terminating in stupidity, nearly
amounting to idiocy. With him the fam
lily probably becomes extinct. And thus
we perceive the persistence of the faint
in the fact that generation of absolute
temperance will not avert the fatal issue"

ST.. JOSEPH CURCULIOs.-We have be-
fore us Il copy Of the st. Joseph, Mich
Herald, of Feb 18th, which contains an
article signed "a St. Joseph Fruit Grow
err in which occasion is taken to talk
back somewhat sharply to DR.. Hull and
Prof. Riley for the position taken regard
lug the RANSOM method of catching tue
curculios. Among other things the writer
says: " do not say it may not be neces
sary to use the sheet at sometime during
the season; suppose, however, in taxing
the first crop that appears, the male or
the female should be caught before copu-
lation, can much damage be done in either
event? Or suppose every grower of fruit
should prepare his orchard early, AS Mr..
Ransom recommends, by clearing away
from the trunk of the tree two or three
feet, place your traps of small barks, chips,
pieces Of 'lath, corn cobs etc, start out the
boys and girls early In the morning to
examine each trap and kill all the curcu-
lios found, this to be as followed by some
person, with pole TO feet long, with
a rubber ball on the end, who shall lar
each limb of the tree, that curculios which
may be ON the tree shall fall and seek
shelter under the traps. In this way, by
going over the ground again an6 exam
lining the traps all may be taken. Is this
not sensible as well as cheap way to
catch them This, Mr. Editor,is not.a sup
possible case, as it was demonstrated last
season by actual experiment. If this be
SO, Dr. Hull's umbrella .curculio catcher
will have had its day, and Dr. Riley's
parasite can be sold at one dollar a pail
to all Illinois fruit growers who are dis
posed to invest"

RAILROAD from Hickman TO Troy

0B1oN COUNTY, Sept 4, 1871.
EDITOR COURIER ALLOW me small
space in your columns for the purpose Of
suggesting an enterprise to the citizens
of Hickman and vicinity, and those liv-
ing on liue from thence to Troy, which
it seems TO your writer, would be greatly
to their mutual advantage.
That enterprise is the building of a
narrow gauge Railroad from Hickman to
Troy, where it would connect with the
Mississippi River Railroad, which in all
reasonable probability will be completed
and in operation in two years from this
date. This would give you direct con
neclon with Memphis within eight hours
or less.
There is also projected Railroad frem
Holly Springs, Miss, via. Somerville,
Brownsville, Newbern, Troy, north to
Cairo, part of which (lrom Brownsville
to Newbern) is now under construction,
will never extend beyond Troy, there are
several very good reasons, for this opin-
ion not now necessary to mention.
The consolidation of the Paducah and
Gulf, and Mississippi River Railroad will
doubtless take place at an early day, if
it has not already, been done The
former road will be completed to Troy
by the first of January next, and learn
that the consolidated company will push
the work forward from both ends, Troy
and Memphis, and probably close up the
gap in eighteef Months.
What the cost of narrow gauge road
is, in this country, L am not sufficiently
posted to stale. but, taking estimates
made by men who profess to know, eight
thousand dollars per mile is a reasoua-
bic average-then say it is seventeen
miles upon a direct line from Hickm
to Troy, we could build the road for one
hundred and thirty six thousand dollars.
Would not this important connection
be worth more than that amount Of mon
ey TO your merchants and real estate ow-
ners within the corporate limits of your
city; besides the great advantage and
it would he to all within the
vicinity. We know it would be of great
and vast advantage to Us on
the route, in fact to all living or own
ing lands West of the dirt road, leading
from Hickman to Troy, East Of Reelfoot
Lake.
Could you not, Mr.. Editor, espouse
the good cause, and enlistthe talents and
energy Of your citizens in this enter
prise Obion will lend you a helping
hand Troy IS anxious for this improve
ment, but Is so strained to meet her en-
with the Padueah and Gulf
Railroad, she is not prepared to do much
ut this time OBSERVER

Terrible Details OF the SudTerIn 2
IA Persia,

Foreign advices report that in Persia
the cholera and famine are still making
fearful ravages among the people On
August ), telegram was received by
Mr. Galata, of the Board OF Health,
from Tabreez, which reports the rapid
spread Of the cholera in that city. Du-
ring the previous week the deaths from
the epidemic averaged two hundred a
day, and when the. telegram was dis
patched the Inhabitants were flying in
thousands to the villages toward Ooru,
miah and Khoi The intelligence also
at Tabreez, of the same date, was that
the famine in the southern provinces, in
stead Of abatiug, was worse than ever.
The Levante Herald publishes the state
ment that, in Korasson, one third of the
whole population has persisted from star
walton, aud at Ispahane, no less than
twenty seven thousand souls have sue
cumbed to it. Ever since the Shah's
pilgrimage to Kerbela the cholera, ty-
plus, smallpox, famine and cattle
plague have combined to ruin the coun-
try.
