Fran the N. V. Mirror. THE THREE BRIDES. ’Du you Bee,' said the sexton, ‘those three hillocks yonder, side hy side! There sleep three brides whoso history L mn abonl lu re late. Look there, sir, on yonder hill, yon may observe a hula isolated house, with a straggling fence in front, and a low stunted appio liens on the ascent behind. It is sad ly out of repair now, and the garden is all overgrown with weeds and brambles, and, Ilia whole place has a desolate appearance, it' tho wind were high now, yon might hear the old crazy shutters flipping sgajiißt the sides, . and the wind tearing the gray shingles oil' the rolf. Many years ago, there lived in that house an old man and Ins son, who cttllivu ted the tew acres of arable land which belong to if •The father was a self-taught mao, deeply versed in the mysteries ofseience, and, ns ho could te 1 the name of every lljwui (hat hlo.i coined in the woods and grew in the garden, .and used to sit up late of nights at Ins books, •or reading the mystic story of the starry hea vens, moo thought ho was crazed or bewiloti ,«d, and avoided him, and even hated him us rthe ignorant ever slum tint gifted and enligh tteneiT. A few there were, ami among others ;tho uiinisfor, and lawyer and physician of the •place, whu showed some willingness to afford him countenance; but they soon dropped In* -acquaintance, dor they found the old man .somewhat reserved and morose, and moreover, -their vanity was wounded hy discovering the •extent of Iris knowledge. 'l'° lho ministers .lie would quote the Fathers and Ihe Scriptures -in tho original tongue, And showed himself well armed with the weapons t>( polemical controversy. He astouishe.i lho lawyer wills ins profound acquaintance with jurisprudence; and the physician was surprisci} at the extent of his medical knowledge. Wo iIkY ah de serted him, and the minister, from v, hom lho old man differed in some trilling pt. nils of •doctrine, spoke very slightly of hint; an d hy and by all looked upon lho self-educated i ar mor wUh eyes of aversion. Uni he little cat ' -ed for that, for ho derived Ins consolation •from loftier resources, ami in the untracked paths of gc enco found a pleasure as in tho | pathle-s woods! Ho instructed Ins sou in till his loro—the languages, literature, history, ' science, were unfolded, one hy one, to the enthusiastic non of tho solitary. Years rolled away, and the old man died. He 1 ,«Lcd when a etonn convulsed lho fsco of na- f lino, when the wind howled around Ins slid- 1 terod dwelling and thn lightning plsycd above The roof; and though he went to Heaven in -Fatih ami purity, the vulgar tboaglil and said 1 that the Evil One had claimed Ins own in the thunder end commotion of the elements. I can not paint te you the grief el the son at his bereavement. He was, for a lime, as one dis tracted. The minister came a d tutored a few cold and hollow yhraacs in his ear, and a ' few neighbors, impelled by curiosity to see ‘ the interior oflho old man’s dwelling, canto ' to Ins funeral. With a proud and lolly look ' the son stood above the dust, and the dead in Abe midst of the b and of hypocritical mour- 1 tiers, with a pang at his heart, hut • serenity 1 on his brow. He thanked his friends for their kindness, acknowledged thoir courtesy, and •then strode away from the grave to bury Ins grief in the privacy of his deserted dwelling, •Hn found, at first, the solitude of the man- 1 cion almost insupportable, and he priced the •echoing floors from morning till night, In all ' .the agony of wo and desolation, vainly im- 1 iploring Hetven for relief. It can;-) lu him 1 first in the guise of poetic inspiration. He wrote with a wonderful case and power. Page afler page came from hit prolific pen, with out an cllort; and there was a time when lie dreamed (vain fool) of immortality. Some cf his productions came before the world. They were praised and circulated, and inqiti. rics were scion foot in the hope of discover ing tho author. He, wrapped in the impene trable veil of obscurity, listened to the voice of applause, more delicious because il was obtained by strollh. From the obscurity ol yonder lone mansion, and from tins remote region, to semi forth lays which astonished theworld, was, iuJocd, a triumph to the vis ionary burd. “His thirst for fume was gratified, and now lie began to yearn for the companionship of joine sweet being ol the oilier sex, to share the laurels he had won, to whisper eonsola itiou to his ear m moments of despondency, and to supply the void which the death of Ins old father had occasioned. Ha would picture ■to himself the felicity of refined intercourse .with • highly intellectual and beautiful wo- ' man, and, as he had chosen for Ins motto 1 what lias been done may still bo done—lie did .not despair of success. In tins village lived threu-eistcrs, all beautiful and accomplished. Their names were Mnry, Adelaide and Made leine. tl am far enough past the age of en thusiasm, but never can I forget the Loamy of those young girls, Mary was the youngest, a fair-haired, mare laughing damsel newer .- , canccd upon a green. Adelaide, who was a few year* order, was dark-haired and pensive; but of the threu.

Still he did not altogether encourage tire affection which he found springing up be tween Mary and the pool. When, however, he found Unit her affections were engaged, he did not withhold Ins consent from her mar riage, and lho recluse bore to his solitary man sion the young bride Os Ida affections. Oh sir, the boVHto assumed a new appearance, w.thin and without. Roses bloomed in the garden, jessamines peeped through its lalti ccs, and the fields shout il smiled with the ef fects of careful cultivation. Lights were seen in the little parlor in the evening, and many a time would the passenger pause by the gar don gale, to listen to strains of the sweetest music, breathed by coral Voices from lho cot tage. If the niystdtfous student and hia wife were neglected hy their neighbors, what cared theyt Their endearing and mti'ual affection made their home a little paradise. Hut death came to Eden. Mary fell suddenly sick, and alter a few hour* illness, died In the arms ol her husband and her sister Madeleine. This was the student’s second heavy affliction. "Days, month* rolled on, and the only so 'kcc of the bereaved was losit with the sisters of the noi eased and talk of lho lost otto To Adelaide, at length, he offered hi* widowed heart. She canto to his lone homo like lho dove, hearing the olive branch of peace and connotation. Their bridal wa* not one of re velry and mirth, for a recollection brooded over tho hour. Yot they lived happily; the husband aga n atnilod, and with a new spring, the rose again blossomed in their garden. Bit it seemed as if a fatality pursued this singular man. When the rose withered and the leaf fell, in the mellow anlnmii of the year. Adelaide to# aic cned ami died, like her youn ger * stcr, in the arms of her husband ami of Madeleine. “Perhaps you will not think it strange, young man, that, after all, tlio wretched ear vivor again stood at the alter. But ho was a mysterious being, whoso ways were inslrula bln, wh», thirsting for domestic lilies, was doomed ever to seek and never to (hid it. Hi* third bride was Madeleine. I well remember her.

She might have set upon a throne, and the most loyal subject, the proudest peer, would have sworn tho blood within her veins had descend, from an hundred kings.

She was a singular ly gifted woman, ami possessed of rare jnnpi ration. She loved the witlowerf.ir hia pow er and lih fame, anil she we lded him. They wore married in that church.

Tlio 1 number of failures in Paris since tho commence- ■ ment of 1537, has been four times as great as dur- ' ing the corresponding period of last year. The 1 markets for Uto sale of provisions are glutted ’ purchasers arc scarce in the great provision marts o) Bcc»ux and Poissy. Ysl the mania for specu- ! latioti, which his proved so injurious in England t and America, had not made its appearance among s ns. The harvest has been abundant. The real i cause of thia di,tress must be sought for in the i n.oral posi.ion of tlio country and in the want ol : confidence and public security. The same torpor i which Government had sought 10 instil into the t minds of men has communicated itself to their physical energies; and the material world has re echoed and produced the sentiment which pre vadcs the political system. Gloom and despon d ncy have lienee insinuated themselves through out the whole frame-work of society. The Mayor of Lyons left Paris, having come to the capital for the purpose of communicating to the Government lire deplorable state of the silk-weavers, in consequence of the stagnation of the silk trade. The magistrate is stated to have insisted strongly on the urgent necessity of sup plying the thousands of sufferers with bread, by sllording them employment on lire public works. —[Messenger.] According to the Journal dc I J nrii, the Dukes of Orleans mid Nemours arc on the point of pro ceeding to London,on the invitation of the King of England, and will visit the principal towns of 1 the kingdom. They are to be accompanied by ihe young Princes, their brothers.

They will afterwards embark at Osteud Tim Messenger says :—‘‘The general discus sion on the allairs of Algiers and tire expedition against Constantino is expected to tic opened on the 2 2d.—Both parties announce their determin ation, to declare the whole truth.

They then advanced upon the heighs of San Marcos, which commands As- Irigaraga where the great contest took place and the most vigorous defence was made, which re sulted in tire occupation ot the mountain by the Queen’s Iroojs. Gon. Sarsfield left Parnpcluna on the SJ, and ' Don Sebnstain set out the same day with eight balallions for Rencnle-la-Reina. A letter from St. Sebastaiu of the 11th, states the loss of tiro Christines at 830 men, moat of whom were only wounded. The Journal do Paris states that the bill for granting an apanage to the Duke de Nemours has undergone aome modifications, in concert with (he President, of the Council, that the domain of Rambudlctis to remain included in the grant, and that the rest of lire 000,0001'. per annum is to be supplied by any annuity from the Stale.

Indeed, if the stock* cun he consi dered any test of the money market, this is the most gloomy day we have had for a long period. The hopes that were entertained at the close of last week, have all been destroyed by the article recently published in the Globe. The sales this morning were very light, and at a reduction of from 1 3 to 6 per cent., on the last transactions on Monday.

To obtain this amount, ho had bonds of the first character, and of which, under any circumstances, there can he no question to the amount of more than three hundred thousand dollars. And yet the private deposites in the banks this day amount to seventeen millions. April 20. Wi,i.

Now n it appears, that at the present price of American ( produce and stocks in England, there will altea- » dy boa deficiency of $25,000,000, in the exports and remittances, embracing the same period of time. This will leave the establishments on both |, sides worse than they were before, for the govern- a ment here is determined to hold on upon the spe- It cic now in the country, received lor the public lauds, as the only sound basis for the expansions of our banking system. Cl Such is tiro exact relations of the two coun- ), tries to each other—but the denouncement will tl net appear in either till the month of May or oi June. We do not seo in the current of events h any hope of unexpected aid to interfere between * ' us and the catastrophe. If any should take place, a| we shall bo greatly disappointed. ' sf In the meantime, failures take place. Since r( . Saturday we have a list of fifteen in all, some of B them very Urge houses, anti always considered 1 solvent until the present disastrous crisis. The whole number of failures up to IhU dale are esti- e mated to he 190, large and small, embracing an amount of liabilities equal to sixty millions of 1 dollars. Their asscits arc estimated generally as follow: Description of assets, Estimated value. Real val. ] Luts and real estate, 15,000,000 5,000,000 .Notes & debts ol south-west, 30,000,000 5,000,000 I Bills ot exchange returned, 10,000,000 1,000,000 Notes and debts elsewhere, 10,000,000 5,000,000 1 I’iopr-rty on band in goods <fc chattels, 10,000,000 10,000,000 I 75,000,000 26,000,000 I Thus showing a dead loss of furtjj-uine mil- 1 lions, in six weeks, by the depreciation in pro perty, caused in the existing convulsion. The general statements of assets are entirely [chimer ical. AVc even doubt whether we have not esti mated them too high. The bank money of other stales is now entirely unncgocialilc in AVall street. Hardly a broker will touch a New England bill, and if things go on as they are going, such currency will soon he quoted at a great depreciation. The accounts of failures and depression in the Boston money mar ket, increase the distatc to deal or trade in New England money. Since Saturday last, it is re ported that failures have taken place in Boston, and other places eastward, to the amount of se veral millions. The “Boston Courier” says, in one day in Boston, the amount was more than a million. The indissoluble connection between the men of business, and the banking system in that region, begins to make our brokers wary of all New England money. Every clique of busi ness men in New England have their own banks, which is merely a blanch of the business estab lishment, although nominally it ranges under the banking system. In Lowell, Boston, Lynn, Taunton, I’rovidcncc, failures have taken place. There is also a great want of confidence in Bos ton, and money is up to 1$ and 2j per cent a month. In western New York there is a difficulty ge nerating. Many of the bank managers of that region have been in town lor some time, endeav oring to make arrangements to sustain themselves. There is a great scarcity of money in that quar ter, and their bank paper is returning upon them. The exlrordinary decrease in the price of (lour will cause a loss of nearly $250,000, if not more, on the slock on hand, owned by the western spe culators. The hanks of the west are the basis of these speculations in bread stuffs, and the fall of the price of (lour has accordingly alarmed the hanks themselves. Western hank money is nearly in the same unnegociable condition as that of New England— and both will probably circulate, in a short time, at a great discount; In this stale of things, the spirit & policy of the government is beginning to create a new crisis— the most alarming of any that has yet assailed us. The great struggle in the commercial world is for the specie—which is the basis of all the ex isting values and operations in mercantile affairs. Besides ibis general struggle between Europe and America, the Washington government has commenced a new struggle, of a local natuie, for the specie now in the banks. For a year past in consequence of the peculiar doctrines flung be fore the people by general Jackson and by his successor, there has been a gradual steady ab straction of gold and silver from the banks. We know a single bank in this city that has, in the course of the two last past months, redeemed in gold and silver, an amount of its notes equal to its capital. This process heretofore’ has been con fined to a small portion of the community—the locofocos. From the tone and policy of the government at Washington, it appears that they arc possessed with the same spirit, and that the transfers of surplus revenue contin ue to he demanded in specie. If the private depositors of lire banks should pursue the same policy, and demand their deposites in in specie, the denouement will bo complete. It is very evident that whoever gets hold of the spe cie, bo it the government or the depositors, at that moment every dollar would appreciate in value, and bo equal to two or three at the pre sent rates. The struggle for the possession of the specie is the great crisis to be apprehended, and the course of Ihe government—lhe tone of their prints—the action of all ils departments appear to he hasten ing that terrible calamity upon us. If such an event should lake place, we would not be in Mr. \ r an Burcn’s shoes, for all the honor or mone y he can get by his four years. UOrTUIUiSCIAI*. Ilflf i I I | - I ..
