W1YD RIPPLES. The wear,’ sun was sinking in the west; , The wave that broke upon the strand, j Seemed but a wrinkle on the breast Of the Kir lake, and when it retche’d the land It rippled gently. The beach caressed And thanked it, for its offering of sand. And then, as though its modesty forbid, That it. a little wave should seeek the shore, It rippled back, and, in evening shadows hid, .Twas lost to me—aye—lost for ever more; Yet o’er the surface of the water sped Another wave, and it was wrinkled as before. Then I thought how very like our joys, These little ripples on the lake appeared. Tis coming in: Oh! bow our Lopes it bnoys— It disappears: Oh! how onr hearts arc seared! 1 Tis gone, and thonvh its going out annoys, Another comes, and then the heart is cheered. JIOIRY SOT FOR THE DEAD. BY ELIZA COOK. Mourn not the dead—shed not a tear. Above the moss-stained sculptured stone; But weep fur those whose living woes Stiil yield the bitter, rending groan. Grieve not to see the eyelids close In rest that has no fevered start; Wish not to break the deep repose That curtains round the pulseless heart. But keep thy pity for the eyes That pray for night, yet fear to sleep. Lest wilder, sadder visions rise Thau those o’er which their ’waking weep. Mourn not the dead—’tis they alone Who arc the peaceful and the free: The purest olive branch is known To twine about cypress tree. TIMBER CUTTERS BANK. Exchange at Sight. On NEW YORK.

Greatness is so often associated with glaring t faults of character, that its attainments oniy serve as perpetual monitorsfof the frailty of our nature. What a merciful dispensation it is—dark as it seems—which arranges the counterpoise of weakness so as to adjust the true glory of ^ strength ! It is this wiseprovision which enables I us to behold great genius, wonderful talent, or mighty achievements without being maddened! by the sense of onr own inferiority, or made i morose by contemplating the unmingled happi- ! ness of those who, while they tower above ns. j i have their heart-aches, passions, vices and tears ; as scorpion whips to chastise their arrogancy and ) ! to silence our envy. Every revelation of the j ! prominent people oi’ our own times, or of any other j period, illustrates the prevalence of the law 1 j have here stated. As if to give fresh comfirma- tion to this notion, and to keep alive in our hearts i j the acknowledgement ot its tiuth, there has re-i centlv been published a biography of one whom [ fortune raised front actual beggary to the most giddy heights of affluence, and who, surrounded 1 hy admirers, caressed, flattered, and almost idol ized was cursed with a greed ol money, afflicted I with relations who had merchandise of her talent and repaid her kindness by harsh treatment, and • who herself, not hesitating to barter for fi.thv lu cre woman’s holiest attribute of virtue, yielded honor where she did not love, and when at last the flame of pure affection was kindled in her heart. ; it was only to serve as a funeral torch for ber who . died unwilling and unhappy. _ | In the review last week the suspicion that the author of the Memoirs of Rachel was a profession al writer of the masculine gender was playfully suggested: but as that statement might do in- justice to a very excellent and high-talented lady. 1 it is proper to correct it here. The accomplished ! editor of Graham's Magazine. Charles G. Leland F.sq. has called my attention to a feuilleton ot the | coustitutionnel, in which the writer. M. Florentine . gives the full name of the authoress as Madame de | I Barrera, (formerly Madame Georges.) a lady of, high social standing. Mr. Lelaud. iu remarking ; upon her personal appearance, quotes the state- j I rnent of a leading London review that she was . ; -beautiful euougli to redeem a whole generation ; 1 of literarv women from the charge of ugliness. The "Memoirs of Rachel." as we suspected, is not the first literary production of Madame de B.; she , has also written the “Annals of the yueens ot , Spain,’ and. in addition to her private worth, ha> a right to respectful treatment for her attainments. ! It would be a matter of deep regret to the reviewer I if a pleasautrv at the expense of an anonymous writer should' be deemed au intentioual disparage- inent of acknowledged talent, or an afiront to a i lady of high social position. With this explanation, let us turn from the au- , thoress to her work. Rachel was the child of pov- er’v in one of its sad Jest forms: her parents ! | homeless wanderers, and the place of her birth 1 though believed to be Munf, in Switzerland, is ! j doubtful. Brought into the world during the, peddling excursions of her parents, the first ten vears of Rachel’s life were years of ceaseless^ wan dering. and it was a great step ia the scale ot pros perity which at last enabled the Felix family to j open an oid clothes shop iu the city of Lyons. But even then the family finances were eked out ; by the teaching of German by the father, and the performance in public of Sarah and Rachel so graphically described by Madame de Barrera in j the following passage: “Sarah, the eldest child j went from one cafe to another singing, accotnpaui- ed by her youngest sister. Rachel, who collected the copper donations, and the children not untre- ^ quently trundled between them, on a barrow, a third child—thus adding to tiie interest they ex- j cited, and relieving their mother of the care of the baby for a short time." From Lyons the parents t of Rachel removed to Paris, and here the same it-j nerant and perilous life awaited her. Sarah sung* in cafes aud Rachel varied the entertainment by recitations. Here it was that thed)-or was open- , ed for the career in which she aiterwards became so famous. A gentleman named Morin, wbo heard the sisters ina cafe in an obscure street gave them a letter to M. Choron. the leader of the Conserra- j toire of sacred music. At this period other life the great triulrgianne was a little selfish personage whom no one seems to have loved; and in this sad school of neglect, with a home in which a varice and contention were the household gods, this poor child, consumed by the tire of an unexpressible genius, was allowed no rest. 1 aught I’’ strive for money; and to guage al. things by their cash value, who shall wonder if iu after-life she prized her geniotts and even holier things only tor their market rates' Her poverty was so great that in order to purchase a volume of Racine she sold an umbrella and falsely stated she had lost it; deceit was thus early implanted iu her bosom. Of all persons she was probably most indebted to Jules Janin for ever rising above the rauks of ill-paid actors; seeing her perform at the Theatre Fro arsis Janin set the press in motion to announce to the world the appearauce of a worthy successor of Mars and Talma. The feuilleton of the Debats did for the the “little fright" what in America as well as iu other countries the newspaper press very often does—it created for her that reputation without which genius may puna in poverty and worth go supperless to bed. From tins time nci history is only a record of prosperous success at tended by an ever-increasing greed for nl0ne } a passion which was stimulated by the grasping demands of ber family. In the height of her tame she stooped to many deeds which, bUn ble as they were, ought still to be charged to the ac count of her early training. T bus *“® resorted to numerous exp*jU?ut» *‘uich^ ar»' reueemeJ from pettiuess by their costliness, fche was re begging. How much ingenuity she brought to bear upon her vocation is exhibited in the follow ing anecdotes: On one occasion she annonneed to her numer ous friends and admirers that she had a perfect pas sion for emeralds, and intended making a collec tion of those beautiful gems. For this purpose she had already procured a very fine one which she complacently exhibited to one of the titled sons of fortune who followed in the train of the trag ic mnse as the gift of a competitor in the race for her good graces. The appeal was understood and responded to with a contribution of course more valuable than the specimen exhibited, the last gift tn turn doing duty as a decoy to draw others until the collection was large as it was rich and rare, no one being willing to be outdone by his predecessor. This manontvre varied according to the victim played upon, brought into the lady's jewel casket some thirty or forty of the finest em eralds in Paris, each gem set with more or less magnificence and some surrounded with brilliants. The following year the whim was for rubies, and finally the lady raised a sapphire tar. When ber ingenuity for the genercsitv of ber contributors was exhansted, a jeweller was sent for, to whom the valued and valuable souvenirs were sold for the price that could be obtained; the money was put where it brought in better interest than in its former more brilliant but less profitable shape. The story of the guitar has been told in a vari ety of ways. The following is reported to be the most authentic version: Every ene has heard of the grand visor who had once been a shepherd- boy and who, having attained to the summit of power, desirous of being kept in remembrance of his early poverty, had hung up in a room of his sumptuous palace the humble garb, the shepherd’s crook, of his boyhood. A report was long afloat that, following this excellent example. Madem oiselle Rachpl had hung on her plded walls the time-worn guitar of the barefooted street-minstrel. The groundwork of this affecting anecdote is quite true, there is a guitar, and that gnitar occupied a conspicuous and honorable place among the splendid ornaments ti" Mademoiselle Rachel’s boudoir. Tiie celebrated artiste had noticed at tiie house of a friend a guitar of most respectable antiqui'y.the original color of which had long ago disappeared under the thick black emit with which time had coated it. “Are yon much attach ed to that piece of lumber quoth Racliel to MadamejS , the owner “would you mind giving it to me“Oh no, indeed," was the reply, “I shall be glad to get rid of it." The maid was sent off with the guitar to Rachel’s lodgings. A few days after it was the turn of an intimate male friend to notice the instrument, but this time it hung enveloped in a beautiful silk net. through the bright meshes of which its black back was plainly visible; on the gilded wall of an elegant boudoir. “VYhat in the world have you there 7’’ quoth the visitor “That," said Rachel, assuming a sentimental attitude, "that is the humble guitar the faithful companiou with which, in the days of my childhood. I earned the scanty pittance be stowed ou the poor little street-singer.’’ “Good heavens! can it be possible? How very interesting! Oh, I beg, I entreat you to let me become the for tunate possessor of that inestimable treasure ! To me, to the world, to history, a precious momento; to future generations, a priceless legacy!’’ ex claimed Mr. , in the glow of his enthusiasm. "Oh. I can never, nexer consent to part with it. — ‘•I must have it. at any cost; do not deny me this gift, to he held as a sacred relic; and permit me to offr-r vou. as a poor exchange, the set of diamonds and rubies you appeared to admire some days ago at the jeweller’s." “Ah well.” quoth the tragic muse, heaving a deep sigh, “since yon will have it I cannot refuse you ” The historical instrument obtained so cheaply, at a cost of some 59.999 francs, was triumphantly installed in the aristocratic apartment of its new owner, who exhibited it to every caller, narrating its pathetic origin with the emphatic delivery of a show man at a fair. Unfortunately, the original possessor happened to have occasion to call on the noble count, and recognising the present she had made to Rachel, uttered au exclamation of surprise. An explanation {followed, given withont malice prepense: for Madame S.. quite ignorant of the mischief she was doing, destroyed the romance at tached to the relic so dearly purchased. Rachel repented too late not having warned her un conscious accomplice. As for the count, he could not forgive himself for having hern so readily the dupe of his own unsuspecting enthusiasm. Some one who heard of this successful little speculation and somewhat doubted its truth, men tioned the report to Mademoiselle Rachel, think ing to hear her give it an indignant denial. But the heroine only laughed,exclaiming, “Poor , how furious he was !" No wonder her co-religionist, Mademoiselle Ju dith, said: “lam a Jewess, but Rachel—Rachel is a Jew'." And yet there was a woman's heart beneath it all, as witness this touching recital of her return to Lyons: On one of the off-nights, having dressed very plainly, the young actress accompanied by a male friend' set out to visit the different parts of the city she had been in the habit of frequenting when she and her sister Sarah were obliged each night to bring home a certain amount of small coin. _ A coffee-house in the vicinity of Le Theatre Celestins one of the minor theatres, was a favorite place of resort with the poor children. On arriving here the emotion of Rachel was veryjgreat. Having en tered with her companion, they seated themselves at one of the little tables and ordered some refresh ment: but she could touch nothing: her eyes were filled with tears, and finding herself recognised she hastened home. Perched upon the highest pinnacle of fame the great anxiety which seems to have possessed her was to obtain the largest sums of money with the least labor Her treatment of her associates in the Theatre Francois was such as to lead to /aw suits: and she seems to have discarded all sense ofjnstice and honor in her professional engage ments. Her father and the whole family evident- ly regarded her with the same sort ot feelingr they would have manifested towards a valuable treas ure found in some parcel of old clothing—the only question which seems to have disturbed them was how to make the most of her gift. It was this un appeasable greed which led them to insist upon her visit to America—a project to which she was greatlv opposed: but the news of Jenny Lind s success, th^ glitter of three hundred and forty thousand dollars which rumor said the latter had earned iu thirty eight nights, was too glorious a vision to permit the Felix family to contemplate any fatigue or danger which might threaten their frail consumptive relative. The history of that expedition is still fresh: but Madame de B.. states a fact, which if it is correct ly put is a complete refutation of the charges of want of taste, appreciation, and liberality which Jules Janin saw fit to make against the American people; for according to her account forty-two performances given here produced the sum of $13fr.rtfi, of which the share of Rachel netted her §59,6' 0. How her exertions, or onr climate, quickened the long slumbering germ of consump tion—of her return to France—of her journey to Egypt in hope to shake of the relentless grasp that was upon her. and ot her death, and the mer cenary sale of all her effects even to her articles of clothing, by those miserable relatives who appa rently would have made merchandise of the nails in her coffin, the reader will remember too vividly to need reminding here: but he will find ip tho work of which this is a very meagre synopsis, all these events detailed in a manner so graphic that they read like new facts. And this is the sum of a life which for a while astouished the world. This is fame! U nder it ail the current of Lethe washing out gradually its foundations: around it the grasping and mer cenary; who fawn and flatter that they may be borne on others wings above their native tend; within it fierce contention, foul outcries of passion deafening conscience; and above it the same calm immovable heaven whose lustrious beauty over arched the chaos in which no man had been formed, whose morning stars burst into song when the first rays of the sun ringed the hill tops ot the new creation, aud whose constellations, once g.it tering over the arms of Alexander, now glisten as richlv upon vou. reader, and upon the ’ MIDDLE-AGED MAN Periodicals.—Sonthem Literature.

It has nearly completed the thirty-fourth year of its career, and, to the shame of the southern people, its success presents an auomalous and almost iso lated fact iu the history of Southern periodical lit erature. The foundation cf its reproach exists not bv reason of any want of Southern enterprise to undertake, or or Southern genius to couduet the business of supplying the public with literary food. Time after time such efforts have been made hut. as often, they haw ended in discouragement aud defeat. The difficulty lies in a habitual proneness of the Southern people, to look to the North for their exemplars iu the empire of taste and fashion, and in an unreasoning and seit-abas- iug enthusiasm for whatever may come endors ed with a Yankee label. Southern patronage en courages and supports the periodical literature of the north. Southern money is the motive power that drives the pens of their abolition editors.— There is hard! v a book-seller s table or a family parlor in onr Sourhern cities winch is not visited monthly bv "Harper." yet its pages have been filled with articles winch could not have reexed. to a greater degree, with the filth and venom of abolition freuzv. had they been peuned bv Hale or Summer.

We have seooped the health imparting waters from the dead sea of their abominations long enough The same encouragement, expeuded at home, would strike the roek of Southern genius, whence would gush a living stream to overflow and fertilize the land.
