Hope inspires it.] "TnE FALLEN SNOW/'-A corres? pondent of the Macon Telegraph writes: You published, in your paper of Wednesday moruiug, the ahovo poem, a production of extraordinary merit. Tho author's name does not appear, no doubt to the disappointment of many readers who admiro the true and beautiful in sentiment aud com? position. Knowing hor history, I pur? pose giving a brief biography. Tho maiden name of tho author was Dora Shaw. She was born and grew into womanhood iu tho Wabash Valley, Indian?. Her pnrents wero plain, houornblo people, blessed with plenty, though not rich, as tho word goes. They loved their beautiful Porn, and bestowed upon her an education which few females ever re? ceive. That accomplished, her father and mother's next ambition was to wed her to some wealthy and distiu gnished gentleman. As is too often the case, they had the fatal delusion that tho daughter's will should bo s&criliced upon thoalturof Mammon; that wealth and ambition should be preferred to love. In lfet>0, F. 8. LoBuum and Dora Shaw were married. LoBaum was n citizen and the possessor of immense property in St. Louis. Being in the Wabash Valley upon business of his honse, he saw, loved and wooed this young, beautiful and accomplished woman. He did not get her own, but her parents' consent, and the marriage which followed was hallowed by no love, save upon thc side of the husband. Taking his bride home to his splen? did palace in the city, she was there given everything that wealth could bestow. Still she was not happy. Did you ever .see a contented euglo iu a gilded cage? Tho wifo was at once introduced to and became tho admiration of thc best people of tho city. To tho out? ward world, sho appeared tho hap? piest of mortals, illustrating how fow there are who really know tb* 96? sbT??xi^?JPWe' nttmau LhViaVt PMraUYt-houra ip SR**ndidN.. . Afr waVlime %h?*lhi?ous tlionWi manager, Ben. r>oBar, bad a lino comp?uj afc-'tho St.1 Louis Theatre. His leading star was Mies Annette Ince-no less renowned for her acting mirnio lifo than her heauty and many womanly virtues. To thia theatre, Mr. and Mfrs. Le Bau in weat, one night, and witnessed a play. Dora had never been insido a theatre be? fore, and, .before the curtain ?ell apon tho second act, sho had taken a reso? lution whioh would chango tho whole courso of hor life-she had deter? mined to bo au actress, like Miss Ince. An interview with the manager wns easily obtained, who saw in the aspirations of the lady a chance to make a splendid hit, and put gold in his purse. Ho gavo her every encou? ragement, .dismissed (ho iden of ber first rissnming a second part, but' ns surod her that she should make her debntip. the lending character of tho play she bad witnessed-"Julia," in the* 'fHitnchbnek." More than en? couraged-indeed, completely rc solved'-T-Dora nt once commenced thc study of. tho; play,'and, possessing a quick intellect, was at least master of tho laugungo in a few days. Private rehearsals appeared to give perfect satisfaction to tho manager, as well as to his company-trained for that particular purpose and for that occa? sion. All this was kept from the husband. Ono morning, the city was thrown into a fovar by the announcement, in all the journals and upon all tho bul? letin boards, that "Miss Dora Shaw worjid appear that night as Julia in Sheridan Knowles' great play, enti? tled tho Hunchback. " LoBaum an d his friends were struck as if by a thunder-bolt from heaven. Ho first entreated, appealed and threatened his wife, and next the manager, and finally declared bis intention to mur? der her upon tho stogo thp moment she made her appearance. All to no purpose. The manager dnly hud all this passed into the streets, which, of course, increased tho sensation, and strengthened thc desire to ut tend. Every tieket was sold by 'J o'clock, and it were needless to say that when night caine that pince of amusement occupied the thoughts of tho city. Tho curtain rose-Dorn appeared walked, stammered, blushed and re? peated lier part mechanically-like any school girl reading her composi? tion at an examination, Still the au? dience was pleased-not by thc act? ing, but by the novelty of the occa? sion. The next, the third, fourth and fifth nights were like the first. Then the morbid appetite of thc public, satisfied with novelty, de? manded good acting. This Dora could not supply. Tho audience full off-tho manager became restless, dissatisfied-refused to oller a re? engagement, but intimated thal she had best go to another city. In tho meantime, LcBaum sued for a divorce, which was readily granted by the court. Tho next ap? pearance of Dora was in New Orleans, where her former social osition was unknown, and where sho was wholly thrown upon her merits as an actress for success. It is needless to say that she failed to elicit ono single plaudit. The rest of the story is soon told. Abandoned by friends, home, hus? band, pennylees, she fell-to use her own words "Fell like the snow-flakes, from heaven to hell." Tho Court Journal relates a re? markable case of the riding passion strong in death. A great pigeon fancier, whose birds had won moro races than any in tho district, was dying, and he had received great consolation from the minister. "I'll bo sure to gang to heaven, eh, minis? ter?" he said. "Yes, I've no doubt about it, Johnny," said the minister; "you have repe?tod of all your sins, and you have not been a very bad boy." "That's right; I've dono nowt very bad, and I'so repented of it all; and I'll be a hangel, minister?" con? tinued the collier, raising himself up in bed. "Yes, Johnny, and have wings." "And will ye come to haven Boom day?" the" collier went on. "I hope so, Johnny," said tho minister. "And will yo be a hangel, and have wings?" "Yes, pleaso God," said the minister. "Ay, mon, that's grand," exclaimed Johnny, "111 lly thee for a sovereign." DON'T STAND STILL.-If you do, ' you will be run over. Motion-ac? tion-progress-these aro thc words which now fill the vault of heaven with their stirring demands, and make humanity's heart pulsate with n stronger bound. Advance, or stand asido; do not block up tho way and hinder tho career ot others; thero is too much to do now to allow of inac? tion anywhere or in any one. There is something for nil to do; tho world is becoming more ami more known; wider in magnitude; closer in inte? rest; more loving and more eventful than of old. Not in deeds'of during; not in tho ensanguined field; not in chains and terrors; not in blood, and tears, and gloom; butin the leaping, vivifying, exhilarating impulses of a better birth of the soul. "Mark Twain" says in ono of his lecture programmes, that ".some little pathos will be infused into this lecture, and persons who are over? come by it may go out for a few minutes."

The bravo , girl took .upe*5'the iuoninuHe bodV? | placed it in her' wherry, and pullen across the harbor to Newport. Tlic Providence 1'resx says this is tho fifth instance in which this intrepid young woman had rendered valuable assistance to persons iu .peril of a watery grave.

During th? recant'-passage of the steamer Chicago from Liverpool to New York, an icc-berg was encoun? tered which stove a hole iu her bow, and for:several days she was in immi? nent danger of sinking. Duriug tho excitement, one of the steerage pas? sengers furnished a little melancholy nniuserhcnt by following tho officers about, and offering them money if | Lhey would let him go into tho boats with them. Ho was perfectly willing his wife should remain on tho ship. She was a good Christian, he said, and prepared to die; but ho was not | quito ready to go, and would rather get to New York first, where he would have time for repentance. GOOD HuMoii-Good humor is tho clear blue sky of tho soul, on which every star of talent will shine more clearly, and tho sun of genius en? counter no vapors in his passage. It is tho most exquisite beauty of a fino face-a redeeming grace in u homely one. It is liku the green iu tho landscape-harmonizing with every color, mellowing thc glories of thc bright and softening the Imo of the dark; or, like a ilute in a full concert of instruments, a sound not first discovered by the ear, yet filling up the breaks in the concord with its soft melodv. MARRIAGES AMONG THE PKXESTS AND NI NS IN ITALY.-A large number of monks and priests in Italy have tnken advantage, of the now privileges conferred upon them by tho new law for civil marriages, and have rushed into wedlock with unexpected ala? crity. Sven tho nuns have taught tho infection, and the matrimonial mania threatens to complete tho abo? lition of the convents begun by the civil law. Human nature appears to be a good deal stronger than the most rigid of monastic vows. A Mississippi paper reporter gives i the following poetic description of a thunder-storm : "At midnight tho scene changed. The proud waves of the angry and storm-tossed Missis- ', sippi uncapped their crested heads and bout in low courtesy to the re? tiring clouds, which, as they ascend? ed, cast off their torn drapery, and, robing - themselves in tho transcend? ent garments of their azure nome, gracefully bade tho no louger surging waves adieu." Tho colored people of the South are said to take a great liking to Se? nator Wilson. One old mother said in her enthusiasm, "He is Massa Liukum's son sure." A freedman, after hearing him speak, said, "Ho need nobber lift his hand to anoder day's work while I hnb a dollar!" His black auditors express their agreement while he speaks by shout? ing, "Glory to God!" and "Arnon," and the meetings aro often closed with tho doxology. A youth of sixteen and a girl of fourteen eloped in New Britain, Ct., a few days since, but the girl's father caught them at the door-way of a justice in au adjoining town, horse-whipped tho lad, seized his daughter by tho arms, seated her on tho norse behind him, promised her a "good spanking" when they got homo, forbid her would-bo husband from ever being seen in New Britaiu again, and slowly galloped home. An English tavern-keeper recently illustrated punctuality iu this wise. Speaking of ono of his customers, he said: "He is the most regular man in Harwick; he comes and gets drunk every Saturday, and has dono tho same for ten years, except when his mother died, and that time he came on Sunday. It is a grand thing to ' be punctual." A Dr. Newton is lecturing publicly in Hartford. At the close of his lectures ho asks those diseased to I rise, when he makes a few motions I from the platform, and tells the ail? ing ones, "You are cured." Some : of them beliovo they are long enough I to say so, but they generally find ont j their mistake after a while.'
