With none ta comfort bu?od only,
There's one that suffereth for many-.
In fault, at laast, not more than any;
One who. n?t moio than others, t-imuug,
A martyr's crown ia surely winning.
His hair is bleaching wh?ter, whiter

His brow ia furrowing deeper, deeper,
Ah! there's afar, one lonely peeper.
Who feels the iron, his soul, that enter a.
In her own heart of hoarta hath center d.
Oh! for her sakot whose heart is breaking,
Now, let compassion be awaking;
Oh! for his children's sake we're praying:
Let mercy vengeance's hand be staying,

Who, not for his own sui, is dying.
Oh! let not tho fanatic, crying
For blood, compassion be denying;
Tho nation,' in her truth and honor,
Avert tho stain they'd put upon her;
An old man's crimelcss blood, that never .
Could bo wiped out, forever, over. M,. al.
COLUMBIA, S. C.
Loni? Napoleon's Love Affaira.
The first flame'of the present Emperor of
the French was Eleonore Gordon, - the
daughter of a French captain, who fell in
Spam. Ele .?nore was the Prince's confi?
dante in the Strasburg attempt. She was a
singer, and made advances to the Pretender,
at Baden, in the summer of 1839. It is
said she had dreamed that 3he would be?
come the Empress of the French. In any
case, sb i behaved very courageously. While
Lous Napoleon was unsuccessfully ha
rangueing thc troops in the Pinmatt Bar?
racks, the gendarms were already knocking
at the door of Miss Gordon, whom Persigny
had just informed that the Prince's enter?
prise was a failure.
Miss Gordon burned all the papers refer
yjiirr th? emento-tho lists of conspirators,
the correspondence with them, and when
the gendarmes threatened to break the door
in, she placed a?chest of drawers against* it,
so as to complete her auto de fe at leisure,.
It was owing to her presence of mind sub-,
sequently, that so little came to light at the
trial. Louis Napoleon held Miss Gordon
in affectionate memory for a long time. ,
When Louis Blanc visited him at Ham, in
1842, he sp?ko kindly about her.
Almost Simultaneously, Louis Napoleon
had fixed his oyes on the.Quecn of Portugal,
who was then fifteen years of age. J. he
portrait of Maria dc Gloria produced an.
impression on him, and ho would not have
been indisposed to become King of portu?
gal. But the matter did not go on quite
right, in spite of all the exertions made, by
his relatives. Oh December 44, 1835, Louis
Napoleon, in an official letter, declined fhe
r??l-t,U(reSe CIMulMlubCaltlp.
At that time, however, a third lady was
ie rival of the singer and the queen. This
WUs Mathilde, King. Jerome's seventeen
year old daughter. She seemed to have
loved Louis Napoleon sincerely. When he
was transported to .America, on board the
Andromeda, he thought with sadness of his
cousin, and wrote the following in Iiis
. journal: . ' -
"When I was taking Mathilde home, a
few months ago, wc entered'the park toge
fher, and saw there a tree which had just
been destroyed by a tempest, upon which I
said to myself, that our marriage plans
weald be destroyed by destiny in a similar
manner. What my mind then darkly fore?
boded has since become the truth. Have I,
during this year, enjoyed the whole amount
of felicity granted to me in this world?"
Mathilde, who was born at Trieste, on
May 27, 1820, was a great beauty, of short
stature, but well formed, with a head of
classic shape" large, flashing eyes, and ex?
pressive, regular features. Her blooming
complexion served as a .relief to her light,
flaxen hair,,. Soon after her marriage with
Prince Anatole Deniidoff, her charms faded
away, and lier face assumed an expression
ol" weaiiness. When Louis Napoleon be-,
came President, Mathilde did the honors in
his house.
In 1840, Louis Napoleon was enamoured
of tho lovely Lady S--. He bore her
colors at the tournament which Lord Elgin
got up in Aryshire. From the tournament
ho proceeded to Boulogne. At the fortress
of Ham, whither he was conveyed after the
Boulogne failure, he fell in love with a girl
of the name of Badingnet, the daughter of
a wholesale baker in town. By her he had
' two children, of whom Miss Howard after?
wards took charge, of course for a large
allowance.
Mfss Howard was a robust English beauty,
who. cost Louis a great deal. He maxie her
Countess de Beauregard, and purchased
? her a splendid villa near Paris. In 1640,
she had a fausse coilche; and the Parisians
still remember, as it were to-day, how
.straw was spread ?Jin front of the house of
the President's mistress.' It is notorious
that it was Miss Howard who, hi the winter
of 1861, drove the Empress to Scotland by
her audacity; she took a box in the.opera
exactly opposite Eugenie's, and stared at
her through her glasses in a most provoking
way. < " /

poloon was, a while, the admirer of Madame
Kategris, a charming blondme, to whom
GaVaignac also paid court. Louis is Said

' Southerners in Washington.
There are many more visitors from the
South just now than -from the North, and
their manners at the hotels, before the Pre?
sident and elsewhere, aro thus described by
aiw>bsorver in the Richmond Whig:
TSerious, with an air of resignation in their
faces which does not exclude vivacity, dig
niftcd without haughtiness, reserved ""but
not taciturn, the prodigal children of the
Union como back honre, if not entirely con?
vert? d, with tho best intention at lda?t tq
\>e, faithful to their pledge and to live is
peac* with the Gojernmeuti *Flie hotel afc
v,iiic% 'I l>itt'trp was fi?ed with famffiis froni
the South, coming here with the awowed j
intention of obtaining their pardon from
the President. The men looked grave, the
women sad; the children surprised and al?
most bewildered to see themselves in such
a place. Most of those I sa\*r were in
mourning. At breakfast or dinner they ate
solemnly and almost without exchanging a
word. It was evident from their manner?
that they belonged to what - was formerly
called the aristocracy of the .South. . Their
manners were easy and simple/ without; any
mixture of that stiffness- and constraint
which you. meet so frequently among up?
starts. Their-proud and" domineering atti?
tude; their imperious look; the sententious
etvle in whjph they addressed other people
ali this is gone. Cool, reserved and modest;
they speak very little, go straight forward in
then- business without looking either to the
right or to the left, like people who aro in
haste to leave ..he city and go homo.
In the President's ante-room, where I met
several, and among them a few members of
the Confederate Congress, "they stood in
corners or ont of doors^ with a newspaper
in their hands, communicating with no one,
and acting pretty nearly as if they were
prisoners of war and bad lost the right of
speaking their mind. The ladies copy and
even exaggerate the reserve of the men.
They remain most part of the* time confined
to their rooms, never go down to the parlor,
and when they leave the hotel, which is very
rare, it is for a visit to some friends, or to
exchange civilities with Southern families
in some other hotel. The only time I saw
Southern, ladies depart from their silent and
reserved attitude was when they addressed
the President in behalf of their sons and
husbands. . On that occasion their timidity
vanished; they became bolds even audacious,
and, with true eloquence, tried to awake the
sympathies of the Chief Magistrate. The
impassibility of the President and his ap?
parent coolness did not seem , to make them
flinch; they renewed their entreaties with
greater sphjt ?nd force, and did not leave
the ground until they had either carried
their point or hoped to carry it.
A RUSSIAN BEAK.-While I am speaking
of Russians let me narrate the eccentricity '
of ono of them, who ia just now the lion of
Paris. I never saw a human face divine
degraded by so mn-h sensuality. Hin
'wealth is something enormous.
I will not challenge your oredulity to its
utmost verge by hunting only figures. This
may, however, say. Ho went recently to a
stock broker and ordered him to buy some
three per cents, that he might not have too
much money lying idle at-ic Rothschild's
bank. "How much shall I buy?" inquired
tho stock broker.. "Well, i really ?rget; I |
believe somewhere between six and eight
millions of dollars." Can you conceive for
a fellow '?out" ' by one or two millions of
uuuu.uf ir_ i_j. .-1_ x-_.1_i_
detests* and who hang on him as iron filings
on the magnet. Who does not hang on his
richfckin? He summoned them to his study
the other day and held this language: "I
know we are of kin, but I came to Paris to
.enjoy myself, and the' continual sight of
you does greatly lessen the pleasures of my
life . in Paris. How it is I don't know.
Doctor Fell, 'the reason why I cannot tell. '
Now if you will promise mo to leave Paris
and never set your foot again in afc, L will
give you $1,200,000 a piece." The offer
was accepted. He gave them a check on
Messrs. de Rothschild, and they quitted
Paris that night. %
