THE TRUTH ABOUT PAUL meRrHY.
He Has Never Been Issane-He T. still
the Best of Chess Plsyers-
New York SUM-
New York Sun.

New ORLEANS, Aprll 2S-The Sun Of the
24th inst contains a repetition of that oft
told lie about the insanity of Paul Morphy
that he has not played chess for a long
time, and so forth, Gd aausedrs. Will you
have the kindness to publish the following
which contains all of the facts concerning
Paul Morphy with which the public have
anything to do?
He is now practicing law in this city, and
has never been insane, or spoken OF in that
relation by his family or friends.
As to chess he is unquestionably to-day
the best chess player in the world, although
he does not play often enough to keep him
self in thorough practice. He gives the odds
of knight to our strongest players, and is
seldom beaten, perhaps never when be cares
to win His disappearance from p1blic
view a chess player has just this explana-
tfon-Ho more, no less
The publicity analioniing which attached
to him for a time. both, in this oounsry and
Europe, were always distastesul to his fam
ily, and especially to his mother.
On his return frem his EuFopean trinmphs
he entered into an engagement with his
mother never again ts pleI for q money or
other stake; never TO play public game or
encourage or countsnanee any pobiication
Of any sort waaseves IN eonnecsiOn with
name. 4a.ff ~.rofrI1 .ff t, %,
The last cAuse in the agreement has here
.ofore been 50 strictly construed rs to pre-
vent any denial by him or his family OF ths.
numerous silly publications that have beon,
made coAcerIling him. 1t is now tinae,
however, that the thing should be stopped.
Will you have the kindness to inform the
public at large, and newspaper paragraShers
in particulsy. that Paul Morphy is engaged
in strict attendance upon his own affairs,
and that his family and friends Do not at
present ad3udge him in need of any assist
ance therein. Very respectfully, ".

A flush of green is on the boughs-
A warm breath pantenth In the air,
And In the earth n heart pulse there,
Throbs underneath her breasts of sne~ss.
Life Is astir among this woods,
And by she moor, and by the stream,
The yesr, as from a torpid dream,
Wakes In the sunshine on the buds

Seedtime and harvest, has returned again,

The first flowers OF the plain.
Sweet April many thought
Is welded unto thee, as hearts are wed:
Nor shall they fail, till, to its autumn brought
Life's golden fruit is shed.

DlD down upon the Northern shore.
o, sweet new year, delaying long;
Thou dosi expectant Nature wrong;
Delaying long; delay no more.
What stays thee from the clOuded moons.
Thy sweetness from it's proper place?
Can trouble live with April days3
Or sadness In the summer moons?

The elm trees slender, tapering sprays
Are green with buds these April days;
And In the liquid. azure sky
The mottled clouds entranced lie
Along the margin OF the stream
The willows silvery branches gieam,
And from the dark soil round their roots
The blue-veined, trembling violet shoots

Harki that sweet carol! With delight
We leave the stifiing room;
The little blue bird meets our sight
Spring, glorious spring, has come!
The south winds balm is in the air,
The melting snow-wreaths everywhere
Are leaping up in showers
And Natute, in her Frightening looks,
Tells that her flowers and leaves and brooks,
And birds will soon be ours.
