Prom the Washington Capital
We happened to meet Colonel
Strother, the famous Porte Crayon,
and the talk turning as usual upon
Morse, the Colonel said: 81 knew
him well | took lessons under him
in drawing and painting. | first saw
him when he was a competitor for
the remaining panel in the rotunda
of the Capitol. [ thought then he
ought to have had it. | think so yet.
He was not great artist, but he was
enough to save us from ridcule.
The Job was given TO Mr.. Powell.
General Schenck did that. The
General probably did not know one
picture from another, but Mr.. Pow
ell was his constituent, and he be-
lieyed, did Schenck, that something
in the way of art should be done Tor
the Miami bottoms, so he worked at
it till he got the commission"
"And one day" said we, Congress
will give General Schenck permission
to remove that terrible product Of the
Miami bottoms. But about Morse" "
"Well, | engaged to become his
pupil, and subsequently went to New
York and found him III a Rom on
University place. He had three
other pupils, aud soon found ,hat
our Professor had very little patron
age. | paid my hf y dollars til t
settled fot one quarters instruction.
Morse was II faithful teacher, aud
took rs much interest in our progress
more, indeed, than we did ourselves
But he was very poor, | remember
that when my second quarters pay
was due him it did not come as soon
as | expected, and one day the Pro-
fessor came IN, and said 9ourteously:
"'Well, Strother my boy, hoE are
we off for money!
"'Why, Professor, I answered, i
am sorry to sayI have been disap-
pointed; but expect a remittance
next week.
"Next week, he repeated sadly;
4 shall be dead ty that time
"Dead, sir?'
"Yts, dead of starvation.
81 was distressed and astonlshed.
l said hurriedly, Would ten dollars
be of any seryice?,
"'Ten dollars would save my lite;
that is all that it would do.
81 paid the money, all that l had,
and we dined together 1t was a
modest meal, but good, and after we
had finished he said:
"'This is my first meal for twenty
four hours. Strother, don't be an
artist. 1t means bgggay. Your
life is dependant upon people who
know nothing of your art, and care
nothing f you. A house dog lives
better, and the very sensltlyeness
that stimulates him to work keeps
him alive to suffering.
81 remained wi, h Professor Morse
three years, and then we SEPARATED.
Some years after met him on
Broadway one day. lie was about
the same as before, tr.ne older, and
perhaps somewha. ruddier., |
asked him how he was getting on
with his painting, and he told me
that he abandoned il; that he had
something better, he believed, and
he told me about his proposed tele'
graph. l accompanied him to his
Ioom' and there found several miles
of wire twisted about, and the bat
terry, which he explained to me. His
pictures, finished and unfinished,
were lying about covered with dust,
Shortly after Congress made an ap-
preparation, and Morse was on the
high road to wealth and immortality.

CHOICEST LITERATURE,
WOMAN.

NbMANs
Those disasters which break down
the spirit OF man, and PROSTATE him
III the dust, seem to call forth all the
energies oil the softer sex, and give
such intrepid elevation to their char
acter, that at times it approaches to
sublimity. Nothing can be more
touching than to behold a soft and
tender female, who had been all
weakness and dependence, and alive
to trivial roughness, while treadiug
the prosperous path Of life, sudden
ly rising in mental force to be the
comforter and supporter of her hus-
band under misfortune, and abiding
with unshrinking frmness, the Bit
terest blast of adversely. AS the
vine which has long twined its grace
ful foliage about the oak, and been
lifted by it in sunshine, will, when
the hardy plant is rtted by the thun-
derbolt, cling round it with its ca
ressirg tendrils, and bind up its
shattered boughs; sois it beautifully
ordered by Providence that woman
who is the mere dependent and or.
namont of man in his happier hours
should be his stay and solaco when
smitten with sudden calamity; wind
ing herself in the rugged recesses OF
his nature, tenderly supporting his
dropping head, and binding up the
broken heart.
