Boyard Taylor, in an article in the
January Atlantic, says of the poet
Goethe:
No suthor has ever been so persist
emily prejudged in regard to his relations
with womea as Goethe. The world for
gets hat during the greater part Of his
life be was the object Of the inteusest
literary jealousy and hostility, and that
the most Of the stories nos current had
their origin therein. The scandal occa.
stoned in Weimsr by his marriage to
Christisne Vulpus-Another part Of his
life which has never yet been correctly
related-is an additional source Of mis-
% PERCEPTION. The impression thus pro-
ducej, combined with a false spprehen-
sion Of Goethe's true character as a man,
have kept alive to this day the most I'M
founded ISLANDERS. Schiller's life con-
tains exactly the same number Of love
passages, put they ceased to be remem-
bered against him after he had married
a refined aud n~oble-natured patrician
lady.
Goethe offended the sentiment Of the
circle in which be moved less by his nom
marriage than by his final marriage with
the plebeian Christians, the much ma
ligned woman whose memory still waits
for justice. Old prejudices and ISLANDERS
have a tremendous local vitality. 1t is
rather a sorry business to pry into the
intimacies OF an individual lie, ever for
the sake Of explanation or defense; but
one who undertakes the study of Goethe
las no alternative When the beautiful
eyes of Miuns Herzlieb looked at me
from the wall, as | listened to Alwine
Frommsun's story OF days nov nearly
seventy years gone By, and | saw many
a simple relic Of a mans guarded ten
derness for a girls transient enthusiasm,
which made the relation clear 10 its IT,.
nocence, | could but lament anew the re-
luctauee OF the world to give up its belief
in evil.

The river here is full of floating
ice and is now in a terrible condi-
ton, there being but 4 feet at 0s-
ceola bar. Below here there is from
8 feet 6 inches to 6 feet of water.
The Ohio remains closed with ice,
as also the Mississippi between
Cairo and st. Louis; and Memphis
continues to be the head of nayiga-
ton. The Arkansas is receding,
with &c inches in the channel from
Pine Bluff to the mouth. The
White is declining slowly, with
scant 2 feet from Jacksonport tC
the mouth.
