There is so much misery to relieve between Florence and Venice, that I should not find there in obolct. aßut, be not afraid—my poverty is the lister of opulence, and my talents fill my purse yvith gold, as soon as my benevolence has emp i. lied it.” Whilst talking thus the stranger opened his f Jportfolio; he took out a parchment and spread it i cn the table, and, in the space of a few minutes • fie drew a hand with such marvelous skill that ■ [ pltho’perfectly ignorant of the art, the gondolier i llould not help uttering an exclamation of sur . ftrise. • If “Here, ’ said the unknovn artist, giving to the fisherman the hasty drawing, “take this parch tnent to Pierre Bambo, who is now in the place if St. Mark; telt him that a painter, destitute of Inoncy, wishes to sell it for 2000 pistoles.” |f “Two thousand pistoles!” exclaimed the tav- Irn keeper, in the utmost surprise, ‘that man is i :razy, I would not give one zechin for it.” In the gourse of an hour the gondolier return ee with the price that was asked ; to which the 1 Secretary of Leo X. had joined a letter, reques j ing the artist, in the warmest terms, to honor pirn with a visit. The next day Maria and Barbarigo were uni -5 led in the church of Stephano. The stranger wished to contemplate the begin ning of their happiness by being present at their iiuptials; and wnen the gondolier, frantic with loy.and penetrated with gratitude, entreated him So tell his name, he answered that he was called nlichael Angelo. I Twenty years after this little incident, Anto toio Barbarigo, by oue of those extraordinary Changes of v?hich God only possesses the secret, was promoted to the rank of General of the Ve netian Republic. But, however intoxicating to Ihe former fisherman was this unexpected eleva tion, he did not forget his illustrious benefactor ; pnd when Buonaroiti died at Rome, after a mag nificent old age, and the most brilliant career known to an artist, the former gondolier, jvith his own hand, wrote under the Latin epi taph composed by the successor of Paul the 111., tor his favorite, these two lines of gratitude Pvhich time has respected and which may still be seen on the mausoleum of the great man. I Woman. e BY REV. J. N. MAFFITT. ■Oh, woman ! truth and passion reach the throne (W here thou dost sit triumphant and alone ; fßright shapes of titful fancies throw Prismatic colors o’er thy beauties glow— Before a thousand shrines thy feelings burn, i As vestals wtive theiijtapers o’er the urn ; i A seeming fickle nature imbues The color of thy mind with rainbow hues— I Yet when awakened to some daring deed, ■When grief and trials come, and nations bleed, | When fields of blood re-echo shrieking cries, ■ And H pe’s lone star hath left the shrouded skies ; a Tis then tlfy mighty heart shall fully prove II The strength of all thy constancy and love ! ■; Who longest lingers at the bed of death, 1 With kisses winning back the fleeting breath ? Who longest at the chill lone tomb shall stay, i Pale sentinel o’er cool and paler clay ? I “uast at the cross, and earliest at the grave,” Ah, woman ! ’tis th3’ chosen hour to save, f i When maihood’s haughty crest has fallen low, W Shattered and broken by the stunning blow.

May 30, I threw (by permission) my blue broadcloth cloak into the one horse wagon of an individual, who, with his wife and a small child, was crossing at the same time. The wife knew of the fact, for it was to her I addressed myself. When I arrived at the landing, I came off leaving my cloak, which was carried off by the ndividuals alluded to. The lady, if I mistake not, told me they were moving from South Carolina to the western part of this State, (Georgia). If any kind friend could give me the clue to their names, or the place to which they were travelling, so that I may obtain my valuable cloak, he would confer a favor upon one who at times is too forgetful for his own interest.
