I write a personal letter to-day.
This morning I met the most discon
solate young man I evor saw. His
name is Mason. He is from New York.
He has been in Saratoga ail Summer.
He has seemed to know every young
lady at the Spa, and has been an im
mense favorite with all of them. He
Las also stood chance with the dashing
young ladies from Chicago, the flipsy-
flopsy girls from Oil City. He has
danced more, sat on the balcony longer,
and in closer proximity to the beautiful
yonng ladies, and walked over to the
grase-yard with more rich and aristo
cratic girls from the Clarendon, than
any beau in Saratoga. And still this
yonng man came to me yesterday al
most heartbroken. His eye had the
look of despair.
"‘ I am discouraged and aiek of life,"
he said. “I want to die."
‘‘VVfrat, you ! You want to leave this
festive scene. Robert ?” I said, taking
off my glasses and looking him straight
in the lace.
‘Yes, Uncle Eli, I am tired of life,”
lie sighed in a hoarse whisper. ‘T came
to Saratoga with a theory. I believed
in that theory as I believed in my life.
I worked for it day and night. I cher
ished it practiced it, and worshipped
it, only to see its utter failure—only to
work out my own ruination by it.”
‘‘What was your theory, Robert?"
I asked. “Was it to bet continually on
the ace—to wager large sums on the
same card, hoping and believing it
would some time win and make you
rich ?” Was it ”
“O, no ; nothing of the kind. It was
a social theory, Eli. You know I have
blood and family and good looks. My
pet theory was to come to Saratoga and
marry a rich girl with a bad cough—
with consumption.”
“And you have finally become en
gaged to the object of your affection,
then, Robert ?” I asked, becoming deep
ly interested in this good young man.
“No, sir, alas ! Oil, no ! My theory
has failed. I have been unfortunate.
The first young lady I met was from
Chicago—Miss Johnson. She was
sweet , and O ! so affectionate, and had
just the cough to suit me. A low,
hacking cough. It was fairly melodi
ous ; and 1 knew it would prove fatal
to the object of my affection in n year ;
but, alas !” and then he buried his face
in bis hands.
“What, Robert I asked.
“Alas ! in a fatal moment I learned
that she had no money to go with it.
She was poor, but such a lovely cuugh
Just the one I had so long and vainly
searched for.”
“What then ?”
“Why, then. I met the rich Miss
Lilly Thompson, of Madison avenue
She is very rich. She wore laces and
diamonds and a new dress at every hop.
She just suited me. She was just the
girl I had been looking tor, with just
one exception.”
“What was that, Robert.”
“O, dear, there was no cough to go
with it. She was all health and mon
ey. There had never been any con
sumption in the family—-just my luck!”
—and then he buried his face in his
hands and wept long and bitterly.
“Again, Eli,” he began, drawing
closer.-“one happy day 1 met the very
object of tny affections—the paragon I
had been searching for years. She was
rich anti delicate. She bad just the
cough, the fatal consumptive cough. I
had fancied in nty dreams and sighed
for in nty waking hours. Two hundred
thousand in her own right, and yet so
frail and delicate—so near death's wel
come door”—and Robert’s face shone
with a joyous light as he described the
frail, rich object of his affections.
“And still you are not happy, my
dear friend,”'! remarked as he brushed
the ashes from his cigar upon my boot.
"Can it be she refused you ?”
■‘Oh. no ! alas, she accepted me. I
took her pale, jewelled hand in mine.
1 placed upon it a §1,000 solitaire. She
was too frail to speak aloud. She
coughed and only whispered her love,
while overcome with emotion, her lan
guid eyes suffused with tears. I was
too happy to live. Fate ruthlessly pluck
ed the lovely prize from out my grasp.
Fate ”
“But how, Robert ?” I asked.
“Well, in an evil hour my Lilly be
gan to di ink the water here. Not the
mineral, but the pure water from the
village hydrant. Is she had stuck to
Congress water, I would be happy now ;
but one fatal day she drank some by-
drant water. She felt better. Then
she drank more—then more, till at last
she used to drink ten glasses every
morning. Then her appetite came
baek. She began to grow stout. Her
cough went away, her cheeks grew red,
and nty beautiful, frail Lilly became
a healthful, ruddy hollyhock. She took
to bowling, then riding on horseback,
and this morning O, dear ! I cant
tell you.” n
“Go ahead, Robert, tell ms all, I
urged confidentially.
“Well, this morning, Mr. Perkips,
she—my frail Lilly—carried her Sara
toga trunk down two flights of stairs
just for exercise. Then she asked me
to walk three miles over to the lake,
and whon we got there. Oh, dear . she
ate ham. and woodcock, and potatow,
and almost an entire black base, weigh
ing three pounds, and when Mrs. -l*y-
ers asked ner if the wouldn’t hare an-,
other, shs said no, she 'was 11
would take away her appetite for dm-
- uMtSwiia
with no prospect ahead but jest to
spend my whole life marketing and
spending that $200,000 for her. and I
to get only my victuals and dothes.”
And then Robert Mason leaned heav
ily forward on his^hands, while the
tears trickled through his fingers and
pattered down on his pentaloons—a
wretched, heart broken, and ruined son.
Hon. Nelson Tift, and “the Happiest
Thought of his Life.”
Hon. Nelson Tift is now engaged
in pefecting a scheme by which the
South can have direct^ trade with
Europe by a Hdc of ocea/f steamers
from Savannah to Liverpool. We
wish Mr. Tift the greatest success
ir. his gr.md undertaking. The fol
lowing on the subject is from the
Atlanta nerald.
Hon. Nelson Tift always a man
fertile in sensible projects, is on the
happiest thought of his life just new
He addressed our Board of Trade
yesterday upon tlie necessity and
feasibility of connecting the South
and West direct with Liverpool by
means of a line of ocean steamer ply
ing direct from Savannah. It ap
pears that the project is perfectly
feasible. Mr. Tift is in communica
tion with a company owning a splen
did line of. steamers that will put
them on this line at once if they can
only get assurance from the railroads
leading to Savannah from the West
that they will reduce freights so as
to allow this line to compete with
other oceanic lines. This is a fair
anti seasonable precaution on the
side of the steamship lines, for it
would be perfect!/ useless for them
to put their steamers in competition
with New York lines when on account
of high freights over rail it would
cost twice as much to get the freight
to Savannah from a Western city as
it would to gel it to New York from
the same city. Such a state of things
now certainly does exist, and if a
line of trans-Atlantic steamers were
competing from Savannah with
another line ol steamers from New
York, on equal freight tariff, it would
be cheaper for a Nashville or a Mem
phis, or a Louisville, or even a Mont
gomery merchant, to ship via New
York than via Savannah, because
the freight from these ixiints is great
er to Savannah than it is to New
York.
Hence, this provisional clause ol
the steamship company is a wise and
a jti'f one, and we are glad to learn
that Mr. Tilt has obtained from a!!
the leauiug roads in Georgia a guar
anty that they will reduce their
freight tariffs so as to make the
Sa\annali line as cheap a route for
Sou*hern and Western merchants as
the New York line, and he is now
on his way to the West to interest
other lines in the projected route.
He feels confident that he will secure
the co-operation of at least ten thou
sand miles of F.ailroads. He has al
ready secured, also, certain pledges
from Savanah in regard to wharf
privileges, etc., which will tend to
reduce the expenses of tlie new line,
also the hearty approbation of the
boards of trade of several cit ies, that
like Atlanta’s Board of Trade pledge
the new line their freight and pat
ronage as long as they will do the
Nothern line.
So the scheme seems very likely
to succeed, as we sincerly hope it
ded, and every one's attention was
given to the man on th» rope, who
marched along, apparently with the
greatest ease, to* thermic of a band
which was stationed in front of the
Clifton House. At 4:64 o.clocfr Bal-
leni reached the middle of the rope,
where he halted to return his saluta
tion to the tremendous applause
which greeted his exploit. After
resting himself for a brief period the
Signor again started OB his tramp.
This was the only stop made, and at
5:10 o’clock the perambalist. looking
as pale as death, bad reached the
American end of his rope, he having
made the trip in twenty-five minutes.
After another rest of thirteen min
utes Signor Balleui again took his
pole in hautl and was off to the mid
dle of the rope to make the great
leap. '
I took him jct3tVix nAautes to ar
rive at the centre of the rope, and
when there he at once began making
preparations to jump. While thus
engaged he lost fiis balancing pole,
which fell into the water and sank.
A cord six feet long, made of rubber
bands, was attached to the rope
at a point just one bundled and fif
teen leet above the surface of the
water. Balleni caught hold of one
end of the elastic cord before tlie
spectators thought he wa9 ready to
go. He descended like ou arrow,
and the recovering snap of the rub
ber was almost simultaneous with
the loud splash of his fall in *he wa
ter. No sooner was the splash heard
than the head of the Signor came
peeping out of the water, and he
struck out vigorous and heartily to
ward the hoat which was there to
pick him up. He was quickly haul
ed into the little cralt,carefully wrap
ped up with heavy bankets, and
rowed to shore.

REASON AS* INSTINCT.
Lost Treasure Not Found.
The San Francisco Bulletin, of the
22d ult., says:
In January, 1872, at stock com
pary was formed iu this city for the
purpose of making an attempt to re
cover the treasure lost in the wreck
of the Spauish ship Lcocadia, 1802.
The Lcocadia was engaged at the
time in collecting the tribute due
from tho Spanish South American
States to the home government. She
went down of! the coast of Ecuador,
and between four aad five millions
of silver dollars disappeared beneath
the sea with her.
The above named stock company
was organized with a capital of
§160.000, in 1.500 shares of §100
each. Of this amount tot ty-five per
cent. wsspakLjg. So flattering did
the prospect at first appear,
those interested would make a “big
tiling'’out of the enterprise, that
some of the stock changed bauds
at orices ranging from §1*00 to $300.
The steamer Mary Taylor was fitted
out to undertake the expedition,and
she sailed from this port about ten
months ago.
The stockholders confidently look-
forward to her return with the hope
that she would bring buck at least
a moiety of the long lost treasure,
but their anticipations were destined
to be woefully disappointed. She

Mr Editor :
Thera is a theory now existing
among vien «f learning, and one which
is also very popular with the mas of
people. Bandy, that Reason and Ins
tinct era totally different ; that there .is
no more relation or resemblance between
them than there is between white and
black. Now, why writers and speakers
should attempt to support and perpetu
ate a belief, which tneir ewn experi
ence tells them is as false as it certain
ly must be unreasonable, is something
which I cannot understand. But the
inquiry naturally arises here, ‘ if it is
faise and unreasonable, why ia it ac
cepted as truth by both tha learned and
the unlearned, ?” Why in the aame
way that many ethers have been re
ceived before it, which were equally if
not more absurd. The world, always
o*t the alert for some new hypothesis,
with which to feed the greedy pens of
her literary sons, readily embraces the
airy imaginations of some unthinking
writer, p.ud establishes them ss undeni
ably true ; when, perhaps, after many
years, and even centuries, Time, the
great disclosor of mysteries, will prove,
beyond a doubt, that the learned and
scientific disciples of said doctrine have
been laboring under a fair but a false
delusion. Just so it is with the theory
of reason and instinct. And I hope
the incredulous will pardon me if they
think me too bold, when I say that rea
son and instinct are one and the same.
I know that it is directly in opposition
to the beliefs and opinions of the theo
rists of modern times ; I know that it
set3 at defiance the arguments contain
ed in some of the most renowned essays
of the Nineteenth Century ; I know
that my assertions are liable to be
scoffed at, and that their author will
probably recive the severest censure
from the unbelieving ; but, I think that
what I aver is true..
The most powerful point that is em
ployed for the maintainance ofi the
theory that reason and instinct are sep
arate. is that reason advances while
nstinet remains stationary. This poiut
claims its origin from a distinguished
writer, but, one whose conjectures lack
ed foundation more than they in reality
einod to, when viewed by a casual
ader. For an illustration in support
of his argument, the same writer says :
“The spider’s web of to day is exactly
the same ss it was a thousand years
ago. Neither does the beaver dam of
our time contain any improvement not
known to beavers when the world be-
g ri ” We will admit, of course, that
t( iat j trll this is very true ; but how does this
author know whether it is reason or
their instinct which does not improve
or advance ? The right view of this
is. that animals are endowed with rea-
snn enough to build their dens and lairs
hut not enough to improve them : and
the r as'iu of this is attributable only to
the in c -ittable wisdom end providence
of God It is clear enough to our
mind that reason is instinct, and in-
ttinct is reason, and that they are one
and the same. For the perceptive fac
ulties of brutes which" enable them to
discern the different natures of things,
are precisely the same as those of man,
to return for the fifth one before ho fed
them, they became stubborn and frac
tious and would ‘generally run swsy.
Now we do most emphatically affirm
that this is the thing which is properly
denominated reason ; and there is no
other name on earth by which it may
be truthfully called
These are our convictions, end we
care not in wbat light they may appear
to others, they are certainly sincere,
and we believe them to be trim. Had
we the talent of other writers we might
make cur theory plainer and our argu
menta more powerful; but ss we have

Alexander H. H. Stuart, of Vir
ginia, thus writes of the political
complexion in tlia tState: “The issue
now yolned, and npoa which Um p
pie will be called on to render their
verdict, is which race, white or black,
is to govern Virginia. It Is an issue
between virtue and intelligence on
the one side and vice and iguor&uce
on the other. I admit that among
the colored race there are some who
possess a high degree of intcligence,
and whose moral worth entitles them
to oar respect. But even these men
cannot deny that the mass of their
race ore ignorant, indoleut, and un
fit depositories of political power.

what would be the practical effects.

its first hunger by sucking the breast
of its mother. In speaking of this iu
their learned essay on the subject, Mr.
Smeliie and Dr. Darwin say : “The
brute tribe possesses an intelligent fac
ulty of the very same nature a3 man
kind, though more limited in its range.”
Whether animals have the power of
communicating their thoughts to each
other or not. is a disputable conjecture;
but, that they often meditate and rca-
sou within themselves is undoubtedly
true For an illustration of this we
turn to the Scriptures. Balaam’s ass
spoke to him and remonstrated or rea
soned with him on account of the se
verity of lys blows. Now the only
miracle that was performed upon the
ass was giving him the power of speech f
the thoughts and remonstrances that he
expressed to Balaam were in ins mind
beiore the power of speech was given
to him. This the Scripture very plain
ly says in substance, though not in
words. So if Balaam’s ass possessed the
gift of reason, why may not the asses of
this age possess it also ? And if asses
are endowed with it, then certainly
other animals must be endowed with it
in proportion to their respective de
grees of intelligence.
