NAPOLEON. MFRABEAU
AMOR Y PRIsIONES

cuando ella estrechaba en- sus febrlles
brazos al viejo V tuerto Condo de Nap
perg, Napoleon escribfa asf para ella:
<decid 4 mi querida Maria Luisa, que
la ano tiernamente y que lamas he ce-
sado de amarla.2
iPero. 81 en- lugar de prisionero aquel
hombre hubiera estado en- Paris, hui
biera perdonado V querido a SUI espo-
saI No; es que en- la prision Sc quie-
re demasiado para no perdonar......
Ell amor en- las prislones detiene la
fuerza moral, porque es ALI que facil-
mente, produce neurastenia.
Dad 4 los presses In compania de la
mujer predilecta Y la carcel no sera
sufrimiento.
Asf como cuando, en- 10 ffsico, algo
duro nos moleSta buscamos 10 mullido
para recostarnos; en- i, rudeza de los
castigos morales, suele sernos apre-
ciable la blandura de la mujer, csc
<balsamo tranquilos de n>.astro espf-
rltu Y nuestros nerVlos.
Las innumerables cartas de Mira
beau 4 Sofia de Momier, cuando cada
uno de los dos estaba encerrado en- una
prisi6n, guardian para trasmitir 4 la
posteridad, la melancolia que las Gel
das solitarias imprimi6 4 sus espfritus
perseguidos por la contrariedad.
La carcel, por ell deito de amar,
cre6 en- ell alma va acibarada de Mira
beau, csc sombrfo rencor que engen-
dram las ofensas 4 los grandes afectos.
La tirma de Luis XVI al decreto de
prisi6n suyo y de Sofia, en- pals ex-
tranjero, fu6 la chispa que mas tarde
debia incendiar las Tullerfas.
La lobreguez de la prisi6n Sc grave
en- el espfritu del triste v al subir 4 la
tribuna sus palabras. quejas de un 20
razon adolorido. fueron para eel Rey,
tan fat1dicas, como las sombras Gle la
zelda habian sido para el.
Mirabeau libre con Sofia, acaso sig
nificaba Ell Rey salyo con la reina.
Tn hombre hist6rico puede incen-
diar un p~olvorfn, un genio histerico
incendia la paz de una gran naci6n.
Los dolores morales constituyen un
estimulo pcligroso en- las grandes in
tel6ctualidades. FL cucrpo de un loco
Sc agita sin sentir postraci6n: un es-
plritu adolorido es la tenacidad ind6-
mita en- movimiento.
Napoleon separado de Maria Tulsa,
lega i esta su corazon; Mirabeau no
puede legar para sus esp6reos amores:
lego ell luto para sus ~jueces, ell cadalso
para una sociedad. All mundo plugo
hacerle viyir en- una tempestad Y al
MORN abri6 crater lie horroroso vol
can.

First Murder.

FIRST MurQcr.
Crookston, Mimi, April 8.-The new
