The Child of Poverty anil Shame.
UY CHARLES LAWTON LOVELL.
TIio’ she has fallen,
Show thou no scorn for her,
Speak to her gently—
Weep for her—mourn for her ;
Weak was humanity—
Temptations beset her,
Starvation ami want
On every hand met her.
Cold was the garret
She was abiding in—
Cold as the grave
Our lost ones are lying ill—
Cold as the miser’s heart,
Calloused and sordid,
Caring for naught
Hut the gold he has hoarded.
Fiercely the wind shrieked
In through the broken pane,
Through crack and crevice,
Wailing a mournful strain ;
Dark was the hearth, and cold
Showing no sign of lire,
Near on a heap of straw.
Shivered her aged sire.
There, too, her mother, dear,
AY anting a crust of bread—
De i tii standing at the door,
Kager to cut life’s thread.
AVork unattainable—
Famished the aged pair—
Poor child of poverty !
Why should she not despair ?
Oh, must she see them starve,
Sutler from want and cold?
How could she gain them bread—
How could she •jain them gold ?
Then came a fearful thought—
God 1 it was terrible—
Here in this Christian land
.Beauty was saleable.
Wildly she fled the place,
Wildly into the street—
Out in the storm and rain—
Sternly her fate to meet.
Fled she forth undeliled
Bv sins polluting stain,
Artless and undeliled,
Ne’er came she hack again.
The Musician’s Marriage.
After having passed the slimmer in vis
iting the principal towns of Germany, the
celebrated pianist Liszt arrived at Prague,
iu October, 1S4G.
The day after ho came, his apartment
was entered by a stranger—an old man,
whoso appearance indicated misery and
suffering. The great musician received
him with a cordiality which lie would not,
perhaps, have shown to a nobleman.
Encouraged by his kindness, his visitor
said, “I come to yon, sir,as a brother. Ex
cuse me if I take the title, not withstand
ing the distance that divides us, but for
merly I could boast some skill iu playing
on the piano, and by giving instructions I
gained comfortable livelihood.—Xow J
am old, feebler, burdened with a large
family, and destitute, of pupils. I live at
Nuremburgjbut I came to Prague to seek
to recover the remnant of a sma'l property
which belonged to my ancestors. Al
though nominally successful, the expense
of a long litigation has moro than swall
owed up the trilling sum I recovered. To
morrow I set out for home—penniless.”
“And you have come to mo ? You
have done well, and I thank you for this
proof of your esteem. To assist a brother
professor is to me more than a duty—it is
a pleasure. Artists should have their
purse in common; and if fortune neglects
some in order to treat others better then
they derserve,it only makes it more noccs
lary to preserve the equilibrium by fra
ternals kindness. That is my system; so
don’t speak of gratitude, for 1 feel that 1
only discharge a debt.”
As he uttered theso generous words,
Liszt opened a drawer in his writing case,
end started when he saw that his usual
depository for his money contained but
three ducats. He summoned his servant.
“Where is the money '!" he asked.
“There, sir,” replied the man pointing
to the open drawer.
“There 1 AYliv, there is scarcely any
thing 1”
“i know it, sir. If you please to re
menber I told you yesterday that the cash
was nearly exhausted ”
“You see, my dear brother,” said Liszt,
smiling “that for the moment, I am no
richer than you. Ilut that does not trouble
me. I have credit, and I can make mon
ey start from the keys of my piano. How
ever, as you arc iu haste to leave Prague
and return home, you shall nut bo delay
ed by present want of funds.”
Bo saying, lie opened another drawer,
and taking out a splendcd medallion,gave
it to the old man. “There,” said he,
“that will do. It was a present made by
the Emperor of Austria—his own portrait
set in diamonds. The painting is nothing
remarkable, but the stone are lino. Take
them and dispose of them, and whatever
they bring shall be yours.
The old musician tried in vain to de
cline so rich a gift. Liszt would not
hear of a refusal, and tire old man at
length withdrew, invoking the choicest
blessings of Heaven on his generous ben
efactor. He then repaired to the shop of
the principal jeweler in the city, in order
to sell the diamonds. Seeing a miserable
dressed man anxious to dispose of magni
ficent jewels with whoso value ho appear
ed unacquainted, the master of the shop
very naturally suspected his honesty;
and while appearing to examine the dia
! mends with close attention, liu whispered
a few words in the car of one of his assis
tants. 'flic latter went out, and speedi
ly returned, accompanied by several sol
diers of police, who arrested the unhap
py artist, in spite of his protestations of
innocence.
“You must first come to prison,” they
said, “nftcrwa-ds you can give an expla
nation to the magistrate.”
The prisoner wrote a few lines to his
benefactor, imploring his assistance.—
Liszt. hastened to the jeweler.
“Sir,” said he, “you have caused the
arrest of an innocent man. dome with
me immediately and let us have him re
leased. lie is the lawful owner of the
jewels in question, lor I gave them to
him.”
“JJut sir,” asked the merchant, “who
arc you t"
“My name is Liszt.”
“I don’t know any rich man of that
name.”
“That may be; yeti am tolerably well
known.”
“Arc you aware, sir, that these dia
monds are worth six thousands ilorius—
that is to say, about live thousand guin
eas, or twelve thousand francs?"
“So much the better for him on whom
I have bestowed them.”
„But in order to make such a present,
you must be very wealthy.”
“My actual fortune consists of three
du ats.”
“Then you are a magician ?”
“By no means; and yet, by just mov
ing my fingers, I can obtain as much mon
ey as I wish.”
“You must lio magician !”
“If you chooso I’ll disclose to you the
magic I employ.”
Liszt had soon a piano in tho parlor
behind the shop. IIo opened it, and ran
his fingers over tho keys; and then seized
by sudden inspiration, he improvised
one of those soul-touching symphonies
peculiar to himself.
As he sounded the first chords, a beau
t fill young girl onteiod the room. While
the melody continued, she remained
speechless and immovable; then, as the
last note died away, she cried with irresis
tible enthusiasm “Bravo, Lisztl ’tis
wondrous!"
“Dost thou know him,then, my daugh
ter ?” asked the jeweller.
“This is tho first timo I have had tho
pleasure of seeing or hearing him,” re
plied she; “but I know that none living,
save Liszt, would draw such sounds from
the piano.”
Expressed with grace and modesty, by
a young person of remarkable beauty, this
admiration could not fail to be more than
flattering to tho artist. However, after
making his best acknowledgements, Liszt
withdrew in order to deliver the pris
oner, and was accompanied by tho jewel
er.
Grieved by his mistake tho worthy
merchant sought to repair it by inviting
tho two musicians to supper. The hon
ors of the tablo were done by his amia
ble daughter,who appeared no less touch
ed at the generosity of Liszt than aston
ished at his talent.
That night the musicians of the city
serenaded their illustrious brother. The
next day tho nobles and most dintingnish
ed inhabitants of Prague presented them
selves at his door. They entreated him
to give some concerts, leaving it to him
self to fix any sum he pleased as a remu
neration. Then tho jeweler perceived
that talent, even in a pecuniary light,
may bo more value than tho most pre
cious diamonds. Liszt continued to go to
his house, and, to the merchant’s great
joy, ho porceived that his daughter was
the cause of these visits. I ie began to
love tho company of tho musician, and
the fair girl his only child, certainly did
nut hate it.
One morning, tho jeweler, coming to
the point with German frankness said to
Liszt:—
“How do you liko my daughter ?
"She is au angel 1”
* A'hat do you think of marriage ?”
“1 think so well of it, that I have the
greatest possible inclination to try it.”
"What would you say to a fortune of
three million francs?’
“I would willing accept it.”
“Well, we understand each other. My
daughter pleases you, you please my
daughter. Her fortune is ready; he my
son-in-law,’'
“With all mv heart.”
The marriage was celebrated the fol
lowing week.
And this, according to the chronicle*
of Prague, is a true account of the great
and good pianist Liszt.
Tiie Great Chinese Wall.—Some
idea of the extent of China may be gath
ered from a remark of Dr. Bowring, in a
lecture on that country, recently deliver
ed in England. He said that if all the
bricks, stone and masonry of Great Bri
tain were gathered together, they would
not furnish materials enough for such a
wall as the wall of China; and that if the
materials in the building in London were
put together, they would not mako the
towers and turrets that adorn it,
If Douglas is so groat a man now, and
drunken, what would hobo if sober?
The world will novor know.
The politician who changed his princi
ples to the winning party, gave as his se
ven reasons lor doing it—A wife and six
children.
