Richard Lo cell EdJe,corth.
Pail Mall Gazette

Maria Edgeworth had a curious bring
ing up at the hands of one of the most &C.
centric of men. Richard Lowell Edgeworth
on one side of his nature fully deserved
the title of madmap," which seems to
have been commonly given him. On the
other, he was a thoroughly sound man of
business, an admirable manager of his
Irish estates, and throughout his life capa-
BILE of inspiring and guiding his famous
daughter. As for his madnesses, they were
many. His first marriage was a Gretna-
green affair, which turned out indifferently.
His wife-Maria's mother-failed to keep
any permanent hold over him, and he was
wont to accuse her of "lamenting over
small matters.'' On the other hand, he
was too apt to leave her to her lamenta-
tiOns while he was enjoying himself at
Lichfeld in the famous coterie of which
Miss Seward was head, and to which DR..
Erasmus Darwin and Day, the strange au-
thor of Sanford and Merton" also be-
lenged. Here he met his second wife,
HonOro Sneyd, to whom he was romantic
ally attached during the lifetime of the
first Mrs. Edgeworth, and whom he mar
ried within six months of that poor plant
i've lady's death. Honora Sney2, beau
tiful consumptive girl, died in her turn;
within eight months. Mr. Edgeworth con-
soled himself with her sister, marriage
with sister-in law being not yet positive
" illegal, and upon her death, after II
years of married life, the veteran husband
wooed and won a maiden younger than his
eldest daughter, a Miss Beauford. One
would think that the hero of such a matri-
monial career could hardly have been des-
titute of sensibility and romance, and yet,
strange to say, it was to her fathers sober
ing prosaic influence that her friends COM
monty attributed that cold quality in Miss
Edgeworth's work which led Byron to say
of her novels that they 6 excite no feeling
and they leave no love-" But this self
willed, impetuous man could cut off his
daughters golden hair without a moments
reflection, simply because young officer
had ventured too openly to admire it, and
his estate at Edgeworth's Town was one of
the best cared for, best fenced, and best
drained properties in Ireland.

What the Confederacy Might Haze Been.
Andrew H. II. Dawson, somewhat put
out by some of the obituary notices of
Alexander II. Stephens, brings up this
vivid picture of southern confederacy bis
tory: Responsive to the serenade Mr..
Stephens received on the evening of the
day he was elected vice president by the
Provisional congress- he made speech
In which he struck the keynote to the
confederacy's success, in the simple sug-
gestion of the purchase of every lock of
cotton in the South and the immediate in
vestment of the proceeds of its resale in
Europe in enough iron clad war steamers
to keep southern ports open. Had Mr.
Davis Endorsed this suggestion ear
nestly it would have been promptly
adopted. He practically rejected
1t. y hat was the result
First, the blockade-ergo, the depreciation
of confederate currency, the imitation of
the value of the necessaries of life, suffer-
ing at home, Generalization in confeder-
ate camps, open desertion from the ranks,
until Gen Lee had but 5000 muskets in
line to surrender at Appomattox, while
his muster rolls exhibited the fact that
there were absent without leave 10000
uleh VINO nad gone nome TO club from their
doors the prowling wolf. This we know
is what did happen. Now, suppose we
look at what might have happened if Mr.
Stephens edyice had been adopted. There
could have been no blockade, and the white
wings of foreign merchantmen hunting
for cotton would have lowered in south
ern bays. Foreign commercial inter
course is always regarded as necessity
when it promises 70 be profitable. and in
tercourse must have been followed by rec
ognition, and, above all, the confederacy
would have been administered upon a
specie basis; confederate bonds would have
commanded premium abroad, and flour
could have been bought at home for SIS,
wheN 1t did sell for $4,000 per barrel in
the same currency soldiers received for
quenching the thirst of the earth with their
blood, only 81 per month. Confidence
would have then reigned in the confeder-
ate ranks, because comfort would have
reigned in their homes. No children then
would have cried for bread, nor would the
wounded in hospitals or the captives in
prisons have Roaped for incidence
