F->r the Georgia Herald ] Though the year eighteen hundred and fifty has long since gone with its “thorns and its roses to mix with the dust of dead ages,” and the sweeping tide of a late internicine war has inun dated our Sunny South ; catching the eagle of liberty without the ark of safety, and leaving many of the Vul tures of vice and contamination gath ered around the wounded and bleed ing carcass of our glorious old State ; though the dusky drama now being enacted in oiir legislative halls will ever reflect shame upon this age, and darken this page of Georgia’s history; we are not totally severed from the past. Memory still bears us back on her downy pinions to those friends and places of pleasure most de lightful to our contemplation. It is not the prosperity of the gov ernment that so much delights u.s in letrospeecing the past; nor i9 it the pleasures of our own private life, which makes the contemplation of the aforesaid year as sweet as “memories p ?rfume. ! ’ While visiting a dear friend resid' ing in Madison, after many hours in dulging in the inestimable pleasure of viewing and admiring the beauties of' that part, of the Lord’s moral vineyard. Maude DeLacy began to inspect her friends album. While eagerly look' ing upon each lifeless face, and in many instances criticising the skill of the Artist very severely andamusc ing herself by laughing at the rare homeliness of which dame nature had endowed some, she found one mina ture image which appeared to her ex tremely fascinating. With frantic steps she rushed from the drawing room to the beautiful and well furn ished apartment of her friend, and exclaiming with and air almost alarm ing to Cainile, whose mind had but a few moments left the “anarchy of dreaming sleep. V/ What handsome fel low is this? 0 ! I’de give all the but tons on my old dress to be acquainted with him. Who is he, and from whence does he bail ? “Why ?” says Camile, “he from his entegrity of character, steady moral habits, and more than all his ‘ spondulicks has extracted the gold en opinion from both hijjh and low, but especially the old folks. He is well known to many of the young ladies of Madison, and stands perpen dicular in their estimation. He is now learning the studies of the senior class of the State Univer sity and will be emancipated from the rigid discipline of College life in the present month of August.” “I had the pleasure,” says Camile, “of meet ing him as one Mr. William Adonis, ami was informed by my friend who lavished such a favor that he was the only son of a wealthy merchant whose locks are already tinged with snows of age, and hence will soon embark in the shadowy ship now anchoring for passengers at the shore of this rude world. “O ! how appropriate for me,” says Maude “as you know I am the sole heir of a distinguished banker with one hundred thousand cash; how fas cinating the idea of casting with him the die of greatest importance next to the last thrown for eternity; what a charming link we wou'.d make in be*» ings endless chain ; and, O ! what a blissful cup from which we would quaff the essence of love! With ample means at our command and a peculiar fondness for traveling, bow delightful ly could a bridal tour be spent visiting first all the most important cities of our fair Columbia, then to the home of our ancestors, and follow the foot prints of Phidias and Praxiteles through the land of poetry and elo' quence. And when tve have suffi ciently admired that classic land so much honored by containing the ashes of an orator whose sublime ora toins have reverberated throughout the civilized world, and the sweet pastoia’s, or more heroic measures of a poet, whose heart once pregnant with celestial fire “wrote as few men have ever written.” When we have thoroughly inspected that spot vet red with gore from the Guillotine, whose remaining inhabit.nts culled from the garden of fame the bright* cst flowers and offered them as an oblation at Napoleon’s feet. In short, when we hate performed Captain Cook’s voyage, and then wish to share some of the sweets of domestic life, being sufficiently chaste and free from all the ills and frailties of hu manity, Ave will quietly retire to that hallowed, that consecrated enclosure, that favored spot of Divine love, the Garden of Eden. There, amid the luxuriant and variegated beauties of nature which have elicited the admi ration and engaged the attention of succeeding ages; there where the beautiful rose “acknowledged queen of flowers,” would ever shed its po tent fragrance to perfume the sweets of our domestic life; the blushing lily, “fit emblem of maiden purity,” whould spread her downy leaves as a carpet for our feet, and the majestic magnolia sweetly waving its expan sive foliage in the pure atmosphere of heaven, there will we pass our mortali ty in a state of bliss surpassing that of our primeval parents. After this outburst of passidn and enthusiasm. Maude arid Camile, council as to the most plausible means of having Maude meet Willie as she was pica - ed to call him. Knowing that the sun of his College life was fast ap proaching the western horizon, and fearing that some enchanting venus might shoot “Cupids” arrow into his heart, Maude was loathe to await the annual commencement which pro claimed him no longer a school-hoy, launched his bark on the sea of life and rendered him capable of con tracting in a manner very suitable to her. A few niglit3 of agitated slumber having passed. A few nights of af fliction with beatific visions more fas cinating to her than would have been the Apollo Belvidere of the Vatican, having been spent, she resolved to make circumstances tavor her with Willie’s acquaintance. While en deavoring to generate some occasion to visit Athens, sweet Valentine s day loomed up in the distance like the “brands” of the sun, when precipitat ed from a thin cloud. How much delighted was she at such a favorable opportunity of telling him in a val entine that her heart had been touched bv fancy’s magic wand. After much impatience for the ar rival of the eventful fourteenth, sev eral nights loss of sleep, and the destruction of several quires of guilt edge letter paper, the day came. Maude fearing her maid might be careless visited the office in propria persona and mailed the valentine to Willie Adonis. Her anxiety to hear from it can be better imagined than described. To give you, reader, more of the particulars of the romance I must submit the valentine and a part of the correspondence for your perusal. Hoping as the week is nearly ready to go to the years beyond the fl >od, and as you doubtless need recreation from the week’s arduous labors you will find a tempory pleasure in lLten ing to the marration of these real in cidents. I hereby submit the valen tine ; Cupid’s Home, Feb. 14, 1850. Mr. Adonis: Woman has many severe burdens to bear, as she passes from the dawn of infancy to the threshold of nunen' titv. She is charged of having been the origin of the downfall of empires, the de molitions and devastations of cities, and of inducing old Adam to eat the forbidden f. uit; thereby depriving him and all his posterity of the indescribable happiness of fired by the frag-ant garden of Ed n. I trust, however, your generosity and magnas nimity will pardon me for addressing ibis note without ever having made your ac quaintance. It is true, X have never had tho honor to know you personally, but nevertheless, 1 havo so niton boat I yr.ur name h. l ' i ed wrh the sweetest note** nf praise, that my highest admiration has been jjiitDPd, and in addition, niy vision has once softly reposed on y urseif in ph >t graphic form. The silent influence began t, »»| or» ate, and ore l irai e meeious of my real state, my heart, of which I have so often boadted as being impervious to the fascir a** tioris of the male >ex, w .is completely churned by the brilliant face portrayed Upon the Card. I deem it imprudent to tax you with an unl.niited historical letter, therefore, I will simply state that my purpone in writing is to solicit an epistolary correspondence. 1/ you should accede to my proposition vor will please make it known by responding at your earliest possible convenient)* Your unknown friend, M..vns DkLacy, Madiaun, Qa. Ampys, Fob. 17, 1850. Miss Maude • While witnessing the hilaa rious mirth of my college mates and friends this afternoon with a half melancholy air, my entire being was thrilled by the electric influence of the blisdul sentiments express* ed in your fastidious proposition for the existence of a correspondence. It is entires ly needless for me to assert that I accede to y.mr proposition. 1 prefer your judging Irom my notions rather than my words. My generosity and magnanimity will cer tu nly induce me to pardon yor, if you havo done anything for which you should ask or receive pardon. If you were only aware how much elated I was after perusing its pages you would immediately see that (hero > s ,u » necessity for asking pardon. As for °ur mmacquaintanee, I only regret the ion* possibility of my meeting you soon. As you are wall aware, I am toiling, even by ftio midnight taper, over the indexes of mens minds, long since passed from ihe cons A I '' s this eai t 1 , into the shadowy regions oj tli* dvad. Aiy timl vacation wiih its flagrant ros* sand th - aroma, of pleasure is now numbered niaoi g the things that were, >ud the extremeiy ligid discipline of coL hge duties c odines me to the limits of h‘autiful and delightful Athens. Circums ntaoces, as you know, prevent the enjoys ment of such profound b!i-s as I certainly wound real ze from your acquaintance. P.ease allow me to state that you have none t e advantage of me in having seen my m igc stamped hy the artist up n a card. There is occasionally even in the dull monotony of co'lege life something to cheer the a’mof t disconsolate and weary heart of the fatigued student and cause h m, for a t me, to iorget the many arduous and la borious duties imposed up m him, and for a time, lie is wafted to the never to-be-for g *tten fields < f pure bliss. Such was the cafcc with tnyßc I s out time since when per** milted to rest my s cady g,ze on your mi.mature likeness. Were 1 n t afraid you m.ght con iderme extravagant I would ex* claim in toe InoguagH of the poet: I ho-s i-.vea whose 11/t'ii- rather xlvca 'Jo lie lulmeii lhuii l>» Horn - Simh h-< a.v ii.tVi- looked fiom heaven, iiut ue’vt wire raiseil to ,i before 1” I liey teli ot a pure fount that needs an o ject on which to pour its refreshi, g waters. 1 hey tel a st <rc o! alineuient only desiring a soul to nourish. I have heard your name also mentioned many times with praiste bordering on adulati. n. So it seems that the “fates” have distributed to each of m equally, out have left the more important duty unconsummated, viz : our acquaint-* ance. It is a pleasure indescribable tube abb to endorse your propsition. It is in deed a p easure, though 1 am fully aware of iny inability to m;ike. an interesting o >r respondent. Perhaps no act «)f my life, no dictation of heart, no act of will, no ef fort of mv b**ing, will ever be performed m oe cheerful than stamping th 1 seal of approbation upon your dear request. It will be a monument of pleuMire to the halcyon days of my youth. Blissful daysl hallowed even as the joy of angel-, w here the “go den chain of godlb e.-»” •« entwined with the roses of friendship, though wj know not each other. Days blooming with th-i fl iff r> of joyous and happiest friend si ip which hang mellitlucntly on the hedges that line our pathway and whoge sweetness and fragrance are as tlieshothiug balm from amarynth- of heaven. Nothing could give me m tre pleasure, when l recall to mind your winning grace, possessing tne p wer to melt the frozen heart and e-art the life streams t > flow through the vital sys tem, invigorating every limb and nerve until the tender petals of affection, protect** ed by the corrdias'f pure and generous magnanimity expands into rich foliage uq* and r which you take shelter, than to graufc the corresp mdence. When 1 tiiiuk of thy smile a train of light ineffable, rippling over the features so sweet as to wake the heart from sorrows, arouse the native fountains of the soul and stir the holy tides of feeling, causing the heart to drink a draught of overflowing bliss. I see in my imagination the brighn# est flower that ever bloomed in pristine g irgeuusnese outside the garden of Para** dise. I fear t» mention the go lslike queea of beauty that reigns supreme onjvour fi.ee, lest she should fade from my touch. Hoping that you will find me able to make the correspondence ki a smaaU degree interesting. and that you wi 1 not change your exaued op nion of me until you know more of m**, 1 will jaticotly await the eventful moment whin we shall meet and become acquainted. Requesting that you do no: delay I beg leave to subscribe my seif, Your unknown friend, William Adonis. BB OONTIWCXD.] KO. 11.
