A Romantic Story.
Tbo following extraordinary narrative !
from a late number of the Cleveland, Ohio, j
Herald, is said by good authority to be lite- i
rally true. The reader will admit that an :
air of varisemblancc pervades the narrative, I
such as isscldoni found in a manufactured !
story:
Some twelve years ago, two young men, j
named Clvma and l'anln. liv??rl in ? em-ill
village not far from the sea-coast in tho ex- '
treme west of England. Both were
miners and worked in the same tin mine j
near the village. Both paid their addresses j
to the 6amo maiden, though not with equal !
success. Clyma prospered so well with his
suit that a day was appointed for their
nuptials, and in due course of time the bans
of marriage were asked in tho village church
by English cannon law.
Before the second Sunday came round !
the rivals met at a wrestling match in the .
village, and it changed lliat the turn came ;
for them to wrestle together. lJaule was
cxcited and endevored strenuously to give ;
his successful rival in love a "wicked fall,' ;
but his eagerness worked his defeat, lie i
was thrown to the ground amid the shouts i
of the villagers. On springing to the '
ground he swore that he would he revenged i
and that Clyma should never marry his intended
bride. 1'"rom that day he took to ;
drinking deeply, and was fierce in his im- !
precations on his rival.
The day before that fixed for the mRrriage,
Panle told all his friends that he
would be at the wedding and would find j
means to prevent its taking place. Know- j
ing bis determined character, Clyma ap- j
peared alarmed at the threat, and got some j
friends to intercede with Paule, but in vain. |
Late that night Clyma left the bouse of'
Ins intended bride for his own cottage.? ;
The way lay across a path of barren moor, ;
where there were several open mine shafts,
which had been deserted and the bottoms
of whose black depths were now covered
with severel fathoms of water. About the
same hour Paule was seen crossing the same 1
path of moor from another direction. A
miner, who passed a little later towards the
mine where he worked?it being his turn 1
for night work?averred ihe next day that :
lie heni'd a noise as if of a dispute and a '
scuffle, but it was too dark to distinguish 1
any one.
Tho marriage was to take place at eleven j
o'clock in the morning at the village church. '
Long before that hour Nthe village was j
a scene of great excitement. The hat and j
neckerchief of Paule, the latter torn and '
bloody, bad been found near the deepest of j
thfc abandoned pit shafts, and of Paule him- I
self nothing bad been found, nor had he {
been sjeen since he went towards the moor j
All til A I . A rnL

to crown, life wjiole, two buttons recognized'a^birtoiJgftig.to
Clyma'a coat, wfere diseased
among the earth and &tones(. To
these ominoKji facts Clyma could only reply
thj?t h^met l??ule at the placementioned
during ?he nij^ht; that liigh words
were*succeeded by a scuffle and that hehnd
beaten 2?aule, who retired cursing him.?

Her excitement was intense. Drawing

Loud Byron's Terrible Secret.-?The j
unhappy character of Lord Byron may per
Imps be traced to the secret of his terrible
deformity, the extent of which was never
suspected even by his nearest friend*, and
which is now revealed lo the world for the
first time, by his friend, Mr. Trelawny, in a
new work just i>sued. The little vanity,
which was one of the illustrious poet's saddest
weaknesses, made this a source of continual
irritation during his life, and at his
death he exacted from his confidential servant
a solemn promise thai no one should
see his body, in order that the secret should
descend with him (o the grave. Mr. Trelawny.

was solved. Both his feet wero clubbed,
and his legs withered to tho knee?the

chaining a proud and soaring spirit like his
to the dull earth. It was generally thought
this halting gait originated in some defect
of .too right foot or ankle?tho right foot

| An Art Item.?Crawford's studio, says
the Boston Trnnscript, is a greater object
1 of intferest now than during his life ; the
j pathos of bereavement lends a melancholy
charm to the various and admirable trophies
of Art there preserved ; the same overseer
j <>iiu wurKiuvn are uiisy upon I lie govern
| ment commissions; tlie statue of Marshall
i is complete, and will bo immediately cast
in bronze. It will require two or three
years to finish the work now in progress,
and an artist writes us that duplicates of
Crawford's favorite statue* are constantly
ordered. The ''Peri," "Children in the
Wood," "Pandora," "Hoy at Play," bust of
Washington, and even some of tbe basso
relievos and colossal works, will probably
long be thus reproduced; indeed, now is
the time to secure them with the advantage
of Crawford's own well-trained workmen
and original models. Powers has recently
met with some of the <rnnH f.irfnno li? r>~_

tient loyalty to art merits. Mr. AstorhaB
bought his "California," Hamilton Fish, a
duplicate of the ''Fisher Boy," and the
statue of Webster has been re-cast for the
city of Boston. Mr. Jarvis, the author of
"Art Hints," etc., has Iwgjfcj. to form an historical
gallery of historical paintings, from
the earliest to the latest masters ?nH li!? I

passage was taken in the Arctic.
An Organic DifficoLiv.?A parish in
the west of England, after rauSU effort, lately
purchased a self-acting orgau, warranted
to play twenty tones, and a larger congregation
(ban usual met to inaugurate it.
The first psalm Kadbeen&Occessfully brought
to an end, when after a short pause, t^p organ

bravo trouble, as tlio New England boy
braves Winter. Tlio school is a mile
away over tlio snowy bills, yet bo lingers
not by tbo liro; but, with bis books slung
over bis shoulder, and bis cap lied closely
under bis chin, besets out to face the storm.
And when be readies tlio topmost fidge,
wbero the powdered s.iow lies in drifts, and
the north wind comcs keen and biting, !
does ho shrink and cower down beneath :
the fences, or run into the nearest house to I
warm himself? No ; he buttons up his con",
and rejoices to defy the blast, and tosses
tlio snow wreaths with his foot; and so, erect
and fearless, with strong heart ami I tidily
ehcek. goes on to his place at school.
Now, when tho fierce winds of adversity
blow over you, and your life's summer lies
buried beneath frost and snow, do linger in- i
active, or sink cowardly down by the way,
or turn aside from your course for momentary
warmth and shelter, but, with a stout
heart and firm step, go forward in God's
strength to vanquish trouble, and bid defiance
I o disaster. If there is ever a time to
be ambitious, it is not when ambition is
easy, but when it is hard. Fight in darkness ;
tight when you are down; die hard, and
you won't die at all. That gelatinous bodied
man, whoso hones are'not even muscles,
and whose muscles are pulp?that man is
a coward.
It is not work that kills men ; it is worry.
Work U healthy you can hardly put more

destroys the machinery but the
friction. Fear secrets acids; but love and
trust are sweet juices.
