[From the Missouri Democrat.] The past few years have demonstrated, from a variety of points of view, that a well es? tablished newspaper ls one o? the indestructi? ble and imperishable things of the earth-that so long as it is true to the wants and Interests of the people, and, having won public confi? dence, is sa cooducted as to retain that Inesti? mable Ingredient of its career, it ls superior to accident and Independent to all the skyey in? fluences which so oiten determine the fate of other buslnexB pursuits and enterprises. The Missouri Bepublican has, within the memory of men new in St. Louis, twice suffered the loss of all Its pro? perty by fire-lia building, its type, KB presses, and all the complex machinery neces? sary to Its production and conduct; yet in each case "even in its ashes lived its wonted tiren;" it aros' from each disaster stronger than be? fore, and each apparent destruction served only to enow how Impossible destruction was. A single day's omission of the regular issue, and the relations between the proprietors and their patrons were resumed as if nothing had occurred; and as the result of the last confla? gration, one of the finest newspaper buildings in the west, if not In the country, to be ready and occupied in a few mont hs hence. Every newspaper in Chicago was burned to the ground In October last. On the night of Che 9th ot that month, there was nothing to show for the wealthy and powerful Tribune but a few blackened and smoking walls. All the rest that was perishable had perished and no one would have given $10,000 for what remained thal was visible. Tne same as to the Times, and the Post, and the Journal. Yet to-day each of these newspapers is worth far more than lt was before t he fire, J he Tribune was estimated at a million dollars, with Hs floe building and perfect machinery; and now, be fore any of these are replaced, lt could not be purchased (or a million and a half. We pre sume the appreciation of the Times has been In equal ratio. It is different with the large mercantile establishments destroyed by that fire; somo of them have not resumed, others are crippled; not one, perhaps, is as well situ? ated, or as valuable as a business, as it was on the 7th of October. The reason is thut the value of a newspaper consists of its good will, which time alone can establish, and which even the furnace heat of the Chicago confia ?ration could neither singe nor destroy; and this ls not strictly true of any other business enterprise Three weeks ago a partnership disagree ment amcng the owners of the Missouri Demo erat led to a lawsuit, which bas j ist been terminated. While the suit progressed, and while lawyers and clients argued in the court all the many fine points cf a transaction in? volving so much money, the paper continued its course as lt nothing at al.' affecting lt were in Issue. It furnished the news of the dav, with appropriate comments, and went lorth every morning on Hs mission of enlighten? ment and information, none the less interest? ing because the firm name might be changed to-morrow, or because men who had been conducting lt lor twenty years might conduct lt no more. Its intellec tuai and mechanical forces were harmo nlously at work all ihe lime, and the relations between it and its readers were undisturbed. This could not have been trincase with any otter business enterprise. A mercantile Arm would have Buffered loss by any such litigation; but for reosous we have already Btated a newspaper does not. A great newspaper ls like a great oak. Its growth and establishment are the work of years. It takes au average lifetime to get Its roots firmly in the ground, aud no ordinary storm or accident can impair It when once rooted and established. It differs from the oak in the constant renewal of its youth, and the contin?es Increase of Its vigor and power. Jt knows age only In accumulated years and ?added etrength, bul not in weakness or de? cline. If it could speak for itself, and as some? thing -Independent of the human agents lo which lt ls subjected, it could say with Time: "Men may come, and men may go, But I go on forever." OLD MAIDS. .i ' ... c {From Blackwoods Magazine.] ' O? cour*"- In talking of old maids we do not Include women of large fortune, who may be anything they please. No woman with a lew thousand a year will have to complain ol op? portunities ot changing her condition, want of I position, or want ot respect, nor will she be the first lo occur to the distracted mother's mind, whoBe dozen children are taken with the. measles at once, as the person to come and help In the nursing and Fit up with Hw baby. People with money are always sup? posed to nave something to do. Importance implies a certain sort of occupation. But strength ls relative. No womau without a .certain independence and force of character ls fit ito be an old maid. There are loeble .'women who might make passable wives, but who make deplorable old maids; they are wretched single, and Impart some of their j wretchedness to all who have to do with them: they, trail for want ot a pron, and ile huddled like some unlucky creep? er, an unshapely heap, for want of the vigorous stem that should bold it up. Such women cannot believe they are not to be married some dav. Somebody to love, to be afraid of, to look np t ?. to swear by, some .duties imposed by necessity, do strike the ob iserrer as such a necessity for their well-being or even creditable existence that the life-long altitude of expectation, however hopeless, is almost justified. Women of this character have probably had many fair opportunities of Battling in life-feebleness In girlhood not sel? dom takes au attractive form; but perhaps no , ode to compel them to a decision; and there is I wanting to this temp?rament the powers of | falling genuinely in love, as well as ot coining ito a fixed resolve. Life ls all expectation with i the feeble, woman; she recoils from a final i step, aud would as likely os not still slip out of i an engagement which she had stimulated all jber small despairing energies to bring to a point. The beauty who, in vulgar phrase, has overstood her market, does not make an amiable old maid. She fet ls her life ras been .amistake, and ls soured a .cording!.v. There jff something in the poosesr .on and conscious \ ness of beauty , which intet eres with the frank 'bestowal of the affection. The woman who ls made to understand by ali the world that she ahandsome, acquires a notion of duty to lier Urns which supersedes and puts the appeals of the heart out of countenance. She ls afraid of wasting her advantages, and asks herself at . critical moments, can I do better ? For a j brief year or two all the world lies within the grasp of ber elated fancy. When the niece in .the -?play asks her aunt why she uever mar jriedrtbe answer ls, "My dear, I was very cruel thirty years ago, and nobody asked rae -since." Such reverses sharpen alike features and temper. The ladles haunted by these re? grets are a bugbear to their kindred; even their kindnesses have a sling In them; there is something Irritating to them in other peo? ple's success and happiness ; the trials of mar? ried life would have len them more amiable. * WHERE THE '-CONFOUNDED MOTHER" WAS. A gentleman who came up the Hudson tells this story: I noticed, he said, a serious-looking man, who looked as lt he might have been a clerk or bookkeeper. The man seemed to be caring for a crying baby, and was doing everything he could to still its sobs. As the child became restless In the berth. Hie gentleman took it in his arms and carried it to and fro in the cabin. The sobs of the child irrit?t*d a rich man, who was trying to read, until he blurted out loud enough for the father to hear: "What does he want to disturb the whole cabin with that d-d baby for ?" The man only nestled the baby more quiet ly In his arms, without saying a word. Then the baby sobbed again. "Where is the confounded mother, that she don't Btop Its noise ?" continued Hie profaue grumbler. At this, the father came up to the man, and sala: "I ara soirv we dlt-turb you. eir. but my dear baby's mother ls In her coffin dowu lo the bazeage-room. i'm taking her back to Albany, where we used to llve.^ .?.The hard-hearted man burled his face in %hame, but In a moment, wilted by the terri? ble rebuke, he was by the side of the grlef ?tricken father. They were both tending the baby.-Neva York Commercial. THE TRUE LUCREZIA BORGIA. An Excellent Lady and a Beautiful Princesa. [From tue Galaxy for May.] All the historians of Ferrara mention her with respect. Llbanori calls lier "an excellent lady and a beautitul princess, endowed with rare qualities ot mind and beart, esteemed by all as the light ot her time and the treasure of her age." Capello says she was "a most amia? ble and good woman." Still greater ls the praise of Cavlceo, who, In dedicating to her one ol his works, places lier as superior in ex? cellence to the famous and virtuous Isabella d'Este, who was considered in polut of rank and goodness the first woman iu Italy of ber time. Assuredly, if (here had been the least suspicion that Lucrezia had been the infamous monster which the Neapolitan poets repre? sented her, these writers would rather have dwelt in their compliments on ber learning and personal attractions than extolled her modesty, virtue, and charity; for to do BO In that case would have been to venture too fer in the field of bitter satire. But it ls to Ariosto that Lucrezia ?, wes the highest and most last? ing testimonials of her virtues. This immor? tal poet ia an epithalamium on the occasion o? her marriage with Alfonso d'Este, represents her as "rivalling In decorum of manners and beauly all that had yet been seen in former times." In the forty-second book of his great poem, the "Orlando Furioso," he raises a tem? ple of female excellence, the niches of which are occupied by the most merltoriousof Italian women. Among these. Ariosto places Lucre? zia Borgia as the first and most prominent." "Rome should prefer to the Lucrezia of an? tiquity the modern, as well in modesty as in beauty." The Doge' of Venice, on learning the sad news of her death, thus feelingly condoles with her bereaved lord: "Slr," he writes, "I have this day learnt the news of the death ol the lady your wile. Believe me, my lord, I could not be more afflicted if I had lost one of my own beloved daughters. But we mn-t both console ourselves In remembering thar, the virtues and piety ol this lady will aot lull to receive their reward." Aldo Manuzio, the great printer, a mun of unimpeachable character, veracity and r> spectability. Incapable ni base flattery, thus addresses to Lucrezia Borgia the first edition of the works of the Strozzl: "Madonna, your chief desire In life has ever been to stand above all, approved of by God, and to be use? ful-your most ardent wi-M not to live in vain,, and, when you quit this world, to leave behind you a monument in the heart of grateful gene? ra'ionB." He proceeded to enumerate her vir? tues. Justice, liberality and amiability. But I think that my readers will now conclude, with Roscoe,, that "if Lucrezia Borgia were guilty of the crimes of which she now stands accused, the prostitution of her panegyrists is greater than ber own; but of such degradation, such men as Aldo Manuzio, Bembo, Cavlceo and Ariosto were Incapable." Ai>?* we may safely affirm that the flagitious and abominable heroine of the modern stage has nothing whatever In common with the respectable and honored Donna Lucrezia Borgia, Duchess of Ferrara. __ TBE HE ALTS DEPARTMENT.
