80 HOWDNOU WRITE g
Wa LOVE'LETTER ?ss@glsNgD9) lsNg9)
FROM THE UNK NWoN TO CAvouR

An especially interesting series of love
letters are those written by lady, whose
name has never been divulged to the pub
lie, to Count Camille di cVour, 'he eele-
brated Italian statesman Ttsg contain
various dates between e years 1880 and
1899. A biography of che count was pub
lished in 1S4S and one chapter m the
work is devoted to the narrative of Ca
YOURS connection with the lady whose
letters he had so carefully preserved
1t is noted in the biography that the
lady was of noble birth. about the counts
own age, and very well educated, being
able to speak and write four different
languages. Whatever led to the first
meeting of the lovers they soon sepa-
rated and among the letters to Cavour
are found only one, dated in 1880, one in
1881. two in 1882, one in 1888, and nothing
in 1884 before June.
Cavour takes upon himself the blame
for this estrangement: II preserved a
tender and painful remembrance of her.
found myself often regretting that my
own stupidity, coupled with unfortunate
circumstances, had prevented my FORM
ing with this sweet and loveable woman
a connection which would have thrown
such charm over my sad and monoto-
nous existence. But to tell the truth,
there remained in my heart for her no
sentiment of love nor of passion
But this seems to have changed. He
tells of most "divine meeting they
had, in which he found her suffering.
and realized that he was the cause of it.
Explanations We're made on both sides,
and, finally, emboldened by the sweetness
of her looks, Cavour took her hand and
pressed 1t to his lips do you forgive
me?" he said. She could resist no longer
She bent her brow to his and helps sought
his in kiss of love and of peace. Then
she told him the whole story of her sad
life, in doing which she endeavored by
all means, he says, to avoid reproaching
him, but wildly portraying the violence
of her passion for him.
Cavour was transported. He writes in
his diary: Unhappy man. l am un-
worthy of so much lovei How, how shall
recompense it, All, | swear, never,
never to forget, never to abandon this
celestial woman"
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-09-02

Among the many letters of the I'm
known to Cavour, this is an excellent ex-
ample of her style in the expressing IT
her sentiment: II do not know why hap
plnes; leaves in me more profound traeess
than vr-happiness. These three days, |
assure you, have effaced the remem-
bra1ce of many cruel years. / preserve
them in my memory as an inhaustibIe
treasure of consolation for the days of
sadness which await me. l shall reflect.
then, that time passes but that love
abides forever. We know 1t will, we who,
not content to live here for feeting years,
dare look forward to an endless future of
love and happiness.
IT have told you, Camille. my soul is,
only a reflection of thine; without thee
I am nothing let the light be inter-
cepted, and / shall cease toa exist. | shall
follow thee everywhere; let no one hope
to separate thee from me, Relatives,
friends, / renounoe all rather. than cease
to see thee and to write to thee. / feel,
that nothing can subdue me so loDg as
l am sure as / am now of thy love-
Thy heart answers to mine, and between /.
us it is, as thy motto says: For life or
for DEATH
The last letter she wrote to Cavour was
evidently intended to be read after her
death. 1t Is as follows:
1.-THE woman who loved thee is dead
She was not beautiful--she had suffered q
tuO HiutI w hat slit ldthtu she hieW
better than thou. She is dead. tell thee.
and in the domain of death she has met
with former rivals.
'If she has yielded to them the palm
of beauty in this world where the senses
demand to be seduced, here she exeels
them all. None has loved thee as she
did, for, o Camille, thou hast never ap- .
preeiated the vastness of her love How
could she have revealed 1t to thee?
Human words could not express it: no
act, however, devoted it appeared to thee,
was more than the shadow of what her
heart desired to produce for thee. So
thou hast often seen me silent and con-
centrated, renounciag an incomplete man
Hesitation, and hoping within myself that
the truth would have its day. What,
does this Immense sentiment exist to be
forever suppressed? Shall not this burn
ing germ have It's full development? Is
SO much love created, but to consume the
bosom that harbors it?
How soon after this letter was written
the Unknown died is not told, but it could
not have been long. Cavour probably re-
ceived no further communication from
her.

The speech made by Senator Tillman of
South Carolina a week or ten days ago
to Congress was widely quoted and
aroused considerable Interfere, both
among the advocates and opponents of
woman's rights. It is interesting there
fore, to note the replies which are being
circulated through the equal suffrage
organs over the country. Yesterday
Alice Stone Blackwell commented in this
way In the columns of the Woman's
Journal
II sincerely believe" said Mr.. Tillman,
that the usefulness and goodness of
women vary inversely as the extent of
her participation in politics." Then Queen
Victoria must have been the worst and
most useless woman in England during
all the years of her long reign. The
same reproach would apply to Isabella of
Spain and to every good and virtuous
Queen in history.
Mr. Tilman continued: Il believe she
will improve politics, but ultimately poll
tics will destroy her as we know her
and love her" This is the fear of a
senator coming from a state where
women have not even the school vote,
and where he has not had the smallest
chance to observe the practical effect of
the ballot on women. Contrast with his
ignorance the voice of experience. The
Hon. John w. Kingman of the supreme
court of Wyoming. says Il have never
heard any man complain that his wife
was less interested in domestic economy
because she had the right to vote and
took an interest in making the commu-
nifty respectable.
The women of Wyoming have had full
suffrage for a years--long enough.
surely, to see whether it is going to de-
stroy them or make them unlovabe-yet
Wyoming has the smallest proportion of
unmarried women to its population OF
any state in the union For the last
quarter of a century the suffragists have
had a standing calenge, inviting the op-
ponents to find n all Wyoming two re-
spectacle men who will assert over their
own names and addresses that equal sur
frage has had any had results whatever.
The opponents have thus far failed to re-
