TEE FOOLISH QVARREL.. "Hush, Juana, 'tis quite certain That the coffee was not strong, Own your error-I'll forgive you Why so stubborn in the wrong V" "You'll forgive me I' Sir, I hate you! You have used me like a churl; Have my senses ceased to guide me ? Do you think i am a girl?" "On no! yon're a girl no longer, But a woman formed to please; And it's time. you should abandon Chldish follies such as these." "Oh, I hate you! But why vex me? If I'm old, you're older still; PJl no longer be your victim And the creature of your will." "Tut, Juana, why this bother? It might happen I was wrong; But, if common sense inspire me, Still, that coffee was not strong." "Common sense ! you.never had it! Oh, that ever I was born To be wedded. to a monster, Who repays my love with scorn." "Well, Juana, we'll not quarrel What's the use of bitter strife? But I'm sorry I'm mariried; I was mad to take a wife." " Mad, indeed!. I'm glad to know it; But if there be a law in Spain, I'll be tied to you no longer I am weary of the chain."I "Hush, Juana! shall the.servants Hear you argue ever wrong? Can you have not done with folly ? Own the coffee was not stroig." "Oh, you goad me past endurance, Trifling with my woman's heart; But I loathe you and detest you Villain monster! let us part !" Long this foolish quarrel lasted, Till Juana, half afraid That her empire was in peril Summon'd never-failing aid. Summon'd tears in copious torrents, Tears, and sobs, and piteous sighs; Well she knew the potent practice, The artillery of the eyes. And it chanced as she imagined Beautiful in grief was she Beautiful, to best advantage, And a tender heart had he. Kneeling at her side, he soothed her b cbear anaI was irong; Never more PIl contradict vou-7 But; oh, inake my coffee strong!" THE 1UANZAC, Or THE MAD-HOUSE INMATE. BY GEORGE C. ILL.. I was visiting, a few autumns~~ago, the Lunatic Asylum in H--, desirous of practically accumulating myself with the modes of. discipline there enforced, as well as of gratifying to its full the appe tite of my sympathies, that craves food sometimes, even when, as in this case, in dulgenceivrought no immediate good. I hadia child, some three or four ycars old, witlh me, which I led by the hand from room to room. From patient to patient I went, stopping to look at each but a moment or two, and that moment always crowded to the full with pity and sympa thy. The keeper, a very kind and sagacious, as well as intelligent man, led me along, commenting on the condition, now of this one and now of that, carefully watch ing each patient to detect, if possible, some new and prominent change, and al ways dropping a gentle word with each, to work its own way unaided to their brain, through their feelings. As we sauntered silently along, we sud denly came upon a young looking wvo man, of very handsome and regular fea tures, wvith long raven black hair, that streamed widely over her fair shoulders, and with an eye that had such a look of calm and sweet repose, so indicative, too, of gentleness, and woman's strong and fervent love, as to make me tm-n onl the moment and ask the keeper if he wecre sure that this woman was insane. He did not at once comprehend my question ; and, while I was in the act of repeating it to him, the little girl whom I held by the hand, slipped from me, and approached within the full viewv of the woman. I should have known or thought nothing of it, had not my ears been pierc ed just at that moment, wvith a most uni earthly cry-a cry, not of words and ar ticulate sounds, but of shrieks and hisses, and bellowings, all combined. My hair stood on end. The noise was fearful to listen to. It made my very blood curdle in its veins. My flesh grewv very hot; and then icy cold chills ran fearfully over me. I turned to see what it meant, and was astonished beyond all description to look at the woman, who but a moment before wvas all calmness, and gentleness and love. Her eyes-glowed like living coals. Every feature of her before handsome face, was awfully distorted. H~er lips were drawn out into fierce lines, through which she ejected, in her momentary ma nia, the noise that had so alarmed me. Her wvhole countenance was livid and fi-ightful. With the long locks of hair streaming down over neck and shoulders, the lurid glare of her eyes, the awful dis tortion of her features, and the ashy pale ness of her countenance, she formed a spectacle of human misery, such as my eyeB, for many a year to Come, will sum mna.before me. .'She, was confined wvithin a cage-like room, partitioned off from the rest of the apartment.jy a., row of perpendicular iroB bars, or rods. 'These she kept con stantly seizing hold. of and shaking with all theadditional.atr.engik her frenzy lent her, except when relaxing~her- righttaand from its hold, she clutched through the bars at the littre girl, as if she would tear I yan to seize my precious litle cliarge, and coqvey .it out of, harr's way, she following her. all the time. with her glazed and glaring eyes, looking like a ferocibus lioness eager for her prey. The keeper hinted that we had better withdraw from her sight, which was ex peditiously done. Wandering what cause could have so suddenly inflamed the wo man to madness, as soon as we were in another room, I ventured to ask the keep er to gratify my inquisitiveness. He complied as follows: " That woman, sir, though she now raves so fiercely, is at most times as gen. tle and as affectionate as the child you have hold of by your haud. It was in one of. her gentlest and most placid moods, when by dint of kind words and pleasant stories, I had drawn her in so cial converse beyond what I had ever done before, that she gave something like the following account of the strange in sanity, whose unhappy victim she is: I was not always just such a wo man, sir, -as-you now see me; I was once innocent, free, girlish, and happy. My parents-may God have taken them to rest-were blessed with only two chil. dren-daughters. I was the eldest of the two. William Stanly came into our quiet little village, and I became his. Words needs not attempt to describe the depth or the strength of the affection I bore him. We loved, I believe, as human be ings had never loved before. Every time I looked on his manly face and form, my eyes grew wild, almost, with rapture. I thought there could never have been crea ted another like him. We were married. Years passed on, but no offering blessed our union. My heart began to sink. I knew I needed help from another source to hold me up. I was sorely, bitterly disappointed. This had been the high hope of my heart, to behold my own im. age stamped on another. I could love my William to distraction, but it was not with the love that I felt yearning within me towards a child I wished to call mine. I thought of adopting some pitable, des. titute orphan; but then I felt that that would have been only gratifying my pity and my sympathy, not feeding my burn. ing love. I bethought me of every expe. riment. I prayed to Heaven. I turned my mind on every side of me. I tried to become contented, but I only grew more restless, more uneasy. I set my heart on this object for years, and my disappoint ment was only proportioned to the strength of my .hopes. Mortal creature cannot conceivo my misery-its intensity, its bitterness,- its raging fierceness. It seemed as if my existence were all swal lowed up in the vortex of this one object and purpose. "' While I thus suffered, and my heart was daily corroding, my younger sister was married. In due course of time, a child was born to her. Oh, God, hows bitter were my feel'ngs then ! I thought not to be responsible for-what I- fet All the depths of .my niisery were stirred over .sagin.. I reproached :myself.. I cursed my God. I felt -myself outcast. Ifcared not what became' of mer From daily and weekly. seeing my sister's child growv in beauty, I became more enraged. The sight of it some times made the hot burning blood mount to my cheeks, and I feared what I might do, I actually trem. bled at my own thoughts. Where the suggestions that entered my mind came from, it was difficult for me to imagine. I did not try to imagine; I cared not wvhence they came, so exquisite, yet so extreme was their torture. Her child grew larger and stronger daily. I used to take her in my arms-the little angel -and when I put my face down to hers, and looked in her large blue eyes, and sawv the r.eflection of my own wild fea ture in them, I fairly trembled with af fright. The child seemed to return my gaze, as if she could read my tortured soul in its very depth. I grew afraid to hold her in my arms. I knew not what I might do. Still, she would cry to have me take her, and sometimes, even though my eycballs seemed fairly to hiss and snap as they rolled about in their sock. ets, I shrunk from her, lTcannot tell why. "'As she grewv more beautiful and more interesting, so she seemed to love me more and more. I thought she was born in the world to pursie my soul with torments. The more I became inflamed, the closer would she clasp me wvith her little white arms. She smiled at me, when my very look, haggard and fright ful as it was, should have made her scream with terror. Her pretty little finger play. ed wvith my lips, and poked at myeyes, as if she would open them when 'I shut them close, for very, fear of looking at at her. She played with my curls, and threw her soft arms about my neck. She soon learned to pronounce my name, and seemed to be as much delighted with me as with her own mother; nay more, she would cry for me when for her mother seemed to care-nothing. "' Her mother left her alone with me one summer afternoon. Oh, can I ever forget that afternooni The sun was just going into his decline ; soft winds wvhis pered gentle voices in my ears; birds warbled out their joy in the cool reces ses of the thick leaves; the air was as bland and enchanting as they say it is in paradise ; the fragrance of a thousand flowers swvept in one steady stream into my nostrils. I found~ myself, without knowing it, almost carrying the child out with me into the garden. At first, when 1 thought of my sister's happiness, and then of my own misery, I felt only un happy. I tried to think it was all for the best. I tried to see a providence in my own - mortifying disappointment. But I could see nothing, I could feel nothing but misery. And misery fast grew into madness; yes, fearful madness! The old spirit came over me again. I felf, that I was not myself. I KNEW I was not my. self'. I dreaded to look at the beautifhl child; but I could not turn my eyes away from her as she ran about me in the gar. den, prattling and laughing in her inno cence. "'Then the blood came creeping, up from my eartt-my head. My veins felt full to bursting. My blood was hot, and felt as- if it would scorch me. Pains and pangs shot over my frame that I never felt before in all my life. Then the hot soothing blood nounted to my brain. It seemed to gush and-roll over it like a a boiling. torrent just let loose from its caverns. Every thing swam. I seemed to go round and round, as I stood there in the garden walk. I looked at the blue eyes of the little girl. They were snap. ping and flashing, and seemed to look de fiance in my face. I thought her little lip turned itself up in scorn, and chid me for feeling as I did ; and then again taunt ed me because she was not mine, and I had none of my own. My brain went reeling, reeling round again. I looked about me. I saw a cistern not far off, from which they were accustomed to draw water for the garden in times of drought. The cover was off and lay on the ground. Oh God! what did I doI what did I do? In a twinkling, my strength seemed to grow superhuman. I felt as if I could have defied all mankind. I seized the child in my arms, and dashed her down into the dark cavern filled with water. I saw her struggle only a mo ment; her long auburn hair floated out upon the water like strands of gold; and with her little dimpled hands stretching out for assistance, she went down, down till she reached the bottom. I could not look at her palid face, as it lay turned up to the sky. I fled-to the house. My sis ter was just coming in. I met her in the hall, and she asked me where was Nan. nie. I shrieked out in despair, and run back to the garden. She saw my terror, and became in a moment wild herself. She followed me to the cistern, and looked in. I could not hold her; she had the strength of a giant, and escaped me. In a moment, she was in the dark water. She plunged in .head-long. I saw her seize the dead form of her child, and then she lay down calmly by her side. In a moment they slept together-mother and child. Oh God! I knew not what I had done! My hands looked bloody! I cried out for more children-more chil ldren! I raved, and tore my hair! I-' "Here," said the keeper, "I was ob liged to check the woman in her recital, for I saw the old excitement coming over her brain again, and I thought it best that she should not brood over this melancho ly event. I very much doubt' whether she ever fully regains her mental powers and mental balance; or if she does, liam persuaded that it will be to make the re mainder of her days as miserable and wretched as human existence can possi blv be made. The story of the kind hearted man, as he recited it,- touched my heart to the quick; and I could not help being most powerfully impressed as I left the place; with the mysteriesswith which God's wise providence is very often enshrouded. FoR--YOU, Yofmwo Ma.-You spend .your feisure time in boUe.deotI in-trolling'around-the streetstin-playmng idle games-or in ,profitless conversation with boon companionsi You are foolish-very foolish'? You aro wasting enerries, which, properly employed, might lift you high in the world. You are squandering your time, wvhich never comes again ! You trample the pearls of youth beneath your feet. You are sowving the seeds of an old age full of v-ain regrets, repentant when too late. You, other young man ! You find your highest pleasure ini in the pages of some useful or entertaining book, whence you gather the treasures of thought. In stead of lounging in barrooms, or idling away your time, you delight in the plea sures of the social circle, in the com panionship of those whose intercourse may profit you. You are treading the right path, and your old age will be full of pleasant memories. "I am satisfied," says Goethe, "that the great difference between men is in their energy." Energy and perseverancee are the two great passports to success, in almost all things. They will accom plish what even genius cannot alone, and will enable you to bear down all barriers interposed between you and your aim. Let that be high ! - A GOOD SroaR.-The Boston Trans cript tells a good many good stories un der the head of "Dealings with the Dead" -One of these numbers he devotes to fortune-hunting, and amongst other illus trations gives the case of a Mr. Mewins. He was courting a young lady of some attractions and something of a fortune into the bargain. After a liberal arrange ment had been made for the young lady, by her father, Mr. Mewins, having taken a particular fancy to a little mare, demanded thatit should be thrown into the bargain; and upon a positive refusal, the match was broken off. After a couple or years, the parties acodentally met, at a county ball Mr. Mewins wvas quite willing to renewv the engagement-the lady appeared not to have slightest recol lection of him. "Surely you have not forgotton me 1 said he. " What name sir ?" she inquired. "Mewins," he replied. "I had the honor of paying my addreses to you, about two years ago." " I remember a person of that name," she rejoined, " who paid his addresses to my father's brown mare." A sILENT WIFE.-A daguerreotype taker a few days since, exhibited a-like ness of a lady which he had taken to her husband, and asked him if- it was not a very good one. "Very," was the reply, "anid I only wish my wvife was like it -silent." "LIZZIE," said -a -little churly-headed boy of some five years, "'isn't Sam Slade a buster ?"
