The daily phoenix. (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, August 30, 1865, Image 4
AlIYcl Tennyson.
Wc HOC it reported in t he Northern papera
(says tho Augusta Goitsl?uHoHalisl) that thc
English Poet "Laureate is i:> a hopeless <]e
?.lin.-. Should thia intelligence provo to Lo
true, what language can exaggerate tho
regret of tin- lovi rs oijLigli art in poetry,
wherever the Faiglislr tongue, (toj which
Tennyson has added a new music,jf.ia
Rpokch antony nun? To bc cut. off in tho
noon-day of his life aud rame, withs?many
"Thoughts onwrittcn.and songs unsung,"
would be a melancholy fate indeed.
And yet Tennyson has done more flinn
enough for immo'-'ulity. "In Memoriam"
is thc greatest metaphysical poe:n of this
agc-HPerhaps of any age -and the "Idyls of
the King'" present us with pictures the
vividness and glow of which are unequalled
except tu Homer.
While wc write, the last published verses 1
of Tennyson have bien brought to our no?
tice. Wo insert them herc, with the remark
that they fall fur b&ow thc usual lowl pf
tho author's genius: -i '
cv A MO un y KU. ,
r.\" .YL?HEO TKXXYsoy.
Nature, so far as in lier lies,
imitates God, and turns her fae-'
To every bind beneath tb" skies.
Counts nothing that sin meets with base,
But lives and 1' >ves 1:1 < very place;
Fills out tho homely quick-set screens,
And makes tin- purple lilac ripe, |
Steps from her ;ti>y lull, and gre.-ns
Tho swamp, where lunns the dropping
snipe.
With moss and braided marish pipe;
Ami on thy heart a finger lays, J I
Saying, "ocal qui? ker, for Hie die
Is pleasant, ami thc woods and ways
Are pleasant, nod the beech and lime
Put forth and feel a giftdder clime."
A*a 1 murmurs of a deep? r voice, j
Going before, to some far shrine, . <
Teach the sick le an i de stronger choice,
Till all thy lib one way incline
With one "wide will that closes rhiuc.
And when ti:.' zoning eve bas died
Where v in dait; valleys wind forlorn.
Come Hop" and Memory, spouse and bri ,
From out the bord? rs of th? morn.
With thai fairchild betwixt thom born.
And when t:o mortal motion jarsV
The blackness round the tombing sod.
Through silence anti the trembling stars
Conies Faith from tracks-no feet hau
trod.
And virtue, like a household .; xl:
Promising empire; euch as those
That once ar dead of night, did greet
'iibv's wandering I'rince. so that he rose
With sacrili-e, while nil 1 he licet
Had res fe b\ .-?..ny h?ls of Crete.

om LATE ?VNIOHTS.;
LADIES: F am aware ot the fuel of
there being husbands so lost to all
souse ol' propriety, anti so r<\gnv?Uess
of thc tend r susceptibilit?s of.the
married fournie ir.-art. ihaj they stay
out lill-' o'night;.. ?.Iy hus! -v ) waa
one of that class. Ho is now, through
?nv system of training, th uroughly re?
formad, tamed, subdued, tie ac?
knowledges that he has no rights
which 1 am bound to respect, ll-' is
asdoiiile as a lamb. A family man in
every rcr.se of thc worri.
This useful and not often o ?".mm .-ur?
ta! adjunct t:> every well regulated
household- a husband-is a singular
being, strange in his ways, prone to
go astray, ready to oblige anybody
else rather than his wife very api t->
forgot the existence ?d' that'wifo, in
the'contemplation of som'" snip of n
girl with n light gait, a tight gaiter,
and bright eyes. Husband-;- I am
now speaking of th os ? wiio have grown
<::illoiis in the conjugal hu moss are
much given ! idee -it. What tim - thev
are not' hob nobbing with tl] ir boon
companions in the rui*w'ook( rios, they
may bi doing something much worse.
Tie re.'.; no believing 4anything they
say when oner- they get tue tippt v
hand, aud have full swing with lin
night-latch key.--. Out two-thirds of
th- night, ooming reeling home, or if,
by chance, returning sober, they uro
asCiOVi and ill-grained a- the very
old Satan.
Husbands have na inordinate va?
ric ty of tftc-uscs. 1 will give you an
erarnple:
When w<2 were first nv-rv;: -I my
husband could not have IK-CM moro
attentive. 1 wa ; ac?ountpcl hand ionio,
plump and lively- a good figure; and,
imagine even now I have not altoge?
ther lost all trace of those charms so
powerfulin causing men to make tools
of themselves.
The first three months of our mar
riag ? J shall nevt'dlfong'd Henry was
at home every night. "No rioting
around town; always punctual to tea
often playfully insist-in;; on our drink?
ing tea out of tho santo cup; and, oh
how loving anti tender. ? 'He. ?kisse?}
rae, and I seemed to walk on thrones.'
i wnr. in an elysium. With his arri:
?.round mc, and my head resting upon
his bosom I rifting upon bis lap h<
utting in thc high-back rocking-chaii
m eur snug, cry pari? >r, and the Min
closely drawn. Ah, m ! that wat
bliss;*heavenly, enrapturing, enchant
mg! No night-latch key asked bu?
co whiskey demijohn 111 the closet; rn
roystering, grinning, v rinking fellow
m to help drink it; no trying in th?
rooming, with trembling hand an<
with a case-knife or lather his face
with a tooth-brush. ' No breath smell?
ing like the atmosphere of a beer
brewery, or clothing rank with the
fumes of tobacco smoke-, or stained
with tho wasted cocktails or the soup
of a midnight orgie.
As time passed on, his warmth de?
creased. I, fool like, as every young
girl green and gushing; is, when she
gets full possession of that wonder?
fully and fearfully created animal, a
1'ull-grown man, with a l ight to call
him husband, redoubled my exertions
to recall his honey-moon fondness.
He accepted my kisses, my playful
embraces, and ray tenderness, as a
matter of course: eat his breakfast as
if he were a bachelor; put on his hat '
and walked off ns indifferent to the
parting salute as if he had never de?
clared, "My darling little pet, I can?
not live the day out without your
good-bye kiss resting on my lips."
The great moustached brute!
When we wore first married and
staid home o "nights, he never snored.
He slept ns calm and quietly as sleeps
the wearied traveler after a long day's
journey, Butas he grew indifferent
to mo, as bis absence froia bonni of
evenings became longer, bo began to
snore. When: ho learned it, 1 don't
know. Louder and louder and move
1 disgusting that abominable soinnam
bulie noise increased as tin; months
passed on, until just before i re?
formed him, the awful sound became
little loss than n series of spasmodic
snorts, bits* i profundo nasal shrieks,
and vocal roars, as if his voice were
being torn onlnw tho root:-,.
Despite all my efforts, my cosily- j
arranged tea-table, tho luscious fit- I
bits of the luxuries of the season, ,
I which 1 placed temptingly upon tho I
? snowy cloth, the beautifully embroi- |
! dered slippers aud th? dressing gown i
i presented him with on our first |
, (Christmas da v, ho fell into strange
j ways, and at last came bonje couti- -
iniallv in a state of beastly intoxica- j
I timi. '
I At br r. ho hold in % his absence was \
j causad by meetings at bis lodge. He
l belonged to thc Masons so he said, i
l I believed him thru, lint whim the
j lodge got to holding protracted meet
; i i ig?? every' nighd, bo coming hume
j looking ns i?' Tv - bad. boon drawn
through si knot -Iioio, jaded, face
, itushe !, and unst-endy as- to gait, and
i with a card of a Mies Somebody' in
I his pocket, .1 began to have my doubts
.about tho lodge, ?uni so expressed
. n rysi .! f. J \ is < m ly n -ply wis- - ? >. ?rs.

His next dodges wove - buAiuoss,
I posting the book*, taking account of
?tock. over-worK, heavy ord; rs to ?:*l.
liad to go wiri: etuuttrj custom" rs.
Then came a new set of excuses.
Coroner's j ny suddenly called as a
j witness; charitable meeting: waiting
in the wrong street for :i ear and
well. [ eouklu't nani - the lot of mise
rab?^ subterfuges to which he at last
' resorted.
j 1 was neglected. To bo sure, .1 hud
enough to cat a lui drink and wear;
but. as you ar.- w< il aware, a married
woman wants more than victuals and
; clothes to make her happy. When a
husband easts a-ide his wife, as he
would a squtieZ >tl lom >:i, it is rime for
? woman to rise, assume a j)"we",
though she bat): ii not, mulgoa! bim.
hammer and tong., until he quails,
: cowers and submits to be what ho
ought , a domestic cotwi nienen- a lay
tig ure wliu.se j /.nt.-, drapery ?ind en
, tire i ssion shall be subject to the
< aplic? of ids wife.
J.f thc young lady who i ? rending
this, and perhaps easting aside these
i crumbs of a tviee as being stale and
' <lrv. and dist ist d il to ber moral pa
; late, and who is warning to possess a
husband- could s? ? into the dead fu?
ture of hov eonjugal life behold the
: hand..onie ?do] of ber affections sluni
' bering, his mouth wide upon, li!:-- iii"
I jaws of an old-fashioued rat-trap, his
?.hair pulled in landed masses over his
! head, s o his clothing scattered all
i over the room, over!o ?keil by a pair
1 of great heavy hoofs, with all his snor?
ing and gutterul wind-catching; if she
! should catch a scent of Iiis whiskey
laden breath, hear hijo swearing at
' thc cc dice, ana t he! nat i '.i, ig t lie biscuit.
. and si liding to everlasting perdition
. j the moat, and finding fault wi* h every -
J thing with his wife she would not
? j leap np so quickly, nor run so cn thu
! ; siastieaJly w hen she hears her favored
i lovers voice demanding an interview.
1 1 I think il r were to become a widow
1 , and be compelled, bj the force of cir
M eunistauees. or thc "yearning of wo
. man's nature, to marry again, [should
1 j choose a fat man-a three hnndrctl
> pounder. Mever, oh. never, a jean
' ' man. They are, these lean nu u, pur
; , i'eetiy frightful in their little pi-v.idil
. loes and delinquencies. Jt is the fal
and unctions dog that lays about tin
. I house and never goes abroad, lt v.
] j your gaunt, lean, yellow deg that ac
? ' anises home, alwavs dissatisfied, 'ana
.
keeps himself thin as a rail by his
constant wanderings from home.
Avoid a lean husband, ladies, and,
above all, avoid one who, in addition
to his lea ff ness, expresses a devotion to
temperance. My husband was great
on temperance while courting me,
but he fell from grace very soon after.
Marry a fat man. They are too in?
dolent to dispute your authority, and
if they do grumble, give them an extra
dose of beer and beef, and they are,
crushed.
13ut even lean husbands can be sub?
dued, and brought to see the evil of
their ways, by a resolute, determined
wife. 1 have cured mine effectually
ot' billiards, of euchre, and of every
othei\ time-killing nonsense. He is
wonderfully domestic just now.
The manner in which I tamed my
husband, perhaps, might not operate
with all ot that ilk.
First, I pretended sickness, and
then got- rid of my hired girl, thereby
compelling my husband to get rp and
build tires in the morning, go to mar?
ket, and attenArthe baker and milk?
man. ?
Ihif at the outset, this proceeding,
a;; 1 thought, made him stay away
Iut*r than (-vcr. I fixed that. On
day I sent for the locksmith and had
a new dead latch put upon the door.
On tin's occasion he did not. come,
hourn until two o'clock. 1 heard him
fumbling and swearing at his key and
ai thc key hole.
"Jhmm the key." I bud bei n
aroused by iii:; noise aiV.:<- door.'und
was watching him through the blinds
'of our brd-roo:n window. ile pulled
the hell-knob, he knocked, he went
into tho street., gathered up bits of
stone and t'avew them up against thc
blinds, thinking 3 was asleep.
".Uia.'my niau. I've got von this
hitch ! Flo danced on tin: door stops,
walked ciaos; the street, looked over
at our windows -walked back again,
did a little more swearing, then sat on
tho door sill, then began again at the
key-bole with his key. In vain ! At
last, i i isl H arti neil md awfully sleepy,
he resumed his seat at the door sill,
and there s!. ?n until duvlighU when i
let bim iif.
: 'Hi -! tlc* lock changed !" he ex?
claimed, when I told him.
j "Yes. and. Master rlenrv, I'll have
