DearMits Maude: After dwelling for sometime in the dark and misty Azoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Ce nozoic ages, witnessing the gradual drying of the earth’s surface, the successive formations of rock and coal-beds, upheaving of the horizonal strata by the internal co operation of fire and water, observing with much*, pleasure the gradual rise of, and de velopment of radiate, molluscan, ar ticulate and vertebrate animals, and the various kindsof plants which com pose the vegetation of earth since its creation, I gladly and cheerfully leave all such wandering and fatigu ing researches to commune for a short period with her majestic and angelic like spirit, which seems to preside over my existence. Both in my waking moments and when my soul visits the shadows of J § the dream-land. Indeed you are complimentary in saying you were relieved of the loquacious young vvid' ower, whose eloquence no doubt was soul - chaining. While and doubt for one moment that you»?re relived, lam oftentimes induced to give a different version to .such say ings. Who know’s but that Orphaeus like songster has sent his thrilling love songs throughout your entire being, and ere many smiles from “Aurora” greet the eyes of an un known friend, you will have plunged yourself into the vast and illimitable ocean of wed-lock. But, let us not dream over such probabilities. Look to the Star of boon for mil' enfa an.lil ance to me haven or your acquaint ance, and despond not until the stern reality is more glaring than the re splendent beams of the “day god.*’ It is my painful necessity to state that circumstances will debar me of the pleasure of visiting Madison before the 20th of June, which were it other wise, we could almost see it. Imagine my anxiety for this period since it will be the climax of my college career. I leave the cloister of the student, cease for a time to look on the flickering midnight taper, and go foith into the world, mingle with my long absent friends, meet those who may prove 1 isting friends, and bask for a time in ihe sun shine of life. You no diubt will conclude that I have been erecting some very extrav agant castles. I confess my mind has been roaming over life’s vast are na. Indeed I have pictured the pal ace in which love dwells roved along the banks of the silvery stream amid the richest foliage of natures vegeta tion, with a devoted companion. I have pictured some of the sterner duties of life, but in ev.ery case imagi nation has borne me to some blissful E len. Hoping the intervening time will soon pass, and that I will im mediately realize a visit to Madison, I beg to remain. Your sincere friend, William Adonis. P. S.—For your photograph, all thanks, I return mine, but a poor compensation. Atlanta June 10th, 1850. Mr. Adonis: You can only fancy how happy I am in believing you to be rav iriend. May we be friends forever. Y’our entertaining leUer was a very ample compensation fur my brief and uninteresting note. Now r , that you are so soon to leave the cloister of the student, and with long absent friends you have my most sincere wishes for a future as bright and joyous as possible. We are in the joyous morning of life, with hopes gorgeous, rain-bow gilding over sky, with romantic dreams of a happy future, and with few corroding cares. Why should we not enjoy it? I am aware that hope oiten proves deceptive and that behind the rain bow the everlasting triple arch of the sky-clouds aud darkness shroud the heavens. But we should not anni hilate the pleasures sf the present by gloomy anticipations of the future. 1 restrain all sentiments in regard to your photograph since you were perfectly silent in regard to mine. Your sincere friend, Maude. When Willie became the happy re cipient of Maude’s last his duties were so arduous that he c uld not re spond. He was very assiduous to his studies, and unusually so at this eventful period, as he was soon to withstand the ordeal of final exami nations. He intended his first leis ure should be consumed by a visit to Atlanta, where he anticipated the pleasure of forming Maude’s acquaint ance, but circumstances over which he had no control thwarted for a time his fixed purpose. That bright mo ment was deterred until near the middle of July, when the “Fates” happily contrived their meetjfig. The commencement Emory College had beer^Jj^rrogress for two days. and hope ful Demosth(yii£fisu"and Cicero’s had poured fort Fie their eloquence and all with the exhibition. surprised, was Willie, when he meet a friend from Madison who informed him that Miss Maude was present on this delightful occasion. a thrill Gkf perforated his entire being. Arrangements were soon made and Wil.ie and his friend were in the dniwing-rooin awaiting *\{aude’s ap pearance. Her extreme anxiety ush ered her almost imperceptibly into his presence without giving her toilet the coup de grace. Picture, now in your mind this of two i much of each oth er, yet they were t . , Maude’s exquisitely beautiful and symmetrical form came to Wile view he rose from*the i oft settee and stood as wlflfr Maude advanced, anil setting aside the rules of formal extended lur hand to receive the first grasp ol friendship. scene was affecting even beyond description. The Wtie spectator was so overwhelmed that, his senses were lulled while Willie was more enamored with his new mistress than the self-adoring Nar cissus. The valentine and corr- s pondence were the principle topics of conversation, neither reiterating in words the assertions which they had formerly penned, but both speak ing volumes more in their glistening orbs. The closing scene of these ex ercises was a literary address to each of the societies. Willie attended Maude to the wdl known Few, where they exchanged glances fraught with meaning as they listened to the elo quence of Prof. Hopkins. The ad- dress concluded, the hall soon rung with the enlivening accents of a mer rv crowd. Willie and Maude desir ous of a little more silence and soli tude than the crowded hall afforded, seek a promenade. As they pass out, to the right was seen a beatiful grove where others had gone and were making an appee; fance, such a we fancy the Dryads of mythology to have made. As they perambu late this delightful place, fair Luna smiled with purer and clearer beauty, shedding a halo of light over earth’s daik bosom, bathing all thihgs in her refulgent light. As her gentle rays glance through the opening trees, here, and there, at intervals might be seen some twinkling star as it were a ‘‘living spirit” gazing upon the happy couple. Did I but hold the lyre of Homer and could sing like one en* spired, I might feebly describe the joy of those happy spirits. This bright dream was continue I until the soft lulling of the midnight gale admonish ed both, the merrv occupants of the hall and of the moon-lit grove that they must seek their nocturnal abodes. Imagine Willies private medita- tions as lie winded his way home iu the “we sma hours bevant the twail” w beneath a canopy illumined by the silvery bright ray. Said he to him self let poets rave about mermaids sitting on the coral cliffs of ocean braiding their sea-green ringlets ; of maids enticing the river deities with their strains of more than mortal melody, but they compare not with this sweet spirit, the Aurora Borealis, child of pure affection. Oh ! that raven hair flowing in ringlets of diamonds ; those eves like warm, soft sumraer stars, sparkling under their charming lashes; that smile, the re flection of moon-light on the polar seas, and her soft breathings like the whisper of invisible spirits. If 1 could only be her cherished object, I would never more sigh lor the forfeit bowers of Eden. A few days inter vening and Willie and Maude met *ag;iin in Athens. Willie desiring to intimate to Maude some of the mys terious symptoms of an indisposition with which he was afflicted, proposed to show her the beauties of the ccme tarv. When they had wandered a nid the green paths and lovely en closures of this “silent city of the dead” till they (elt their spirits bath ed in divine repose of the scene, they slowly advanced to an elevated rock bending over the yellow waters of the Oconee, famous as the lover’s leap. Near by her side, Willie seat ed himself, as if desiring to catch inspiration and receive the electric charge by contiguity. With trem bling voice he began to breathe forth, the warm and fervent aspirations of a soul almost convulsed by its strug orlinets. The trembling orator worm ing into power applied the golden key that opens the fount of love. Says he, I bow before a shrine where nope sits brooding like a dove, where life is a thing divine and all things SHte *"l"riow “attempt" so" Bleat fi mv first young vow, while the sum mer flowers send their sweet fra grance on the vernal breeze sighingly softly : “Tt cannot be the first time your young ear has heard a lover’s burning sigh or silver word. I can but hope'your mind will not be con fused, but that (as my own) your bosom will be made a paradise, and my soul illumined by your rain-bow smile. I need not . Such is in evitably the case, lovers will cave about this time. This eloquent speech, though a failure in the end, did not “waste its sweetness on the desert air.” While Willie was writh ing in the agonies of painful embar rassment, Maude was not entirely free from a similar diflidence. The Commencement exercises being over, Willie attended Maude safely r.ome to her father’s mansion in the “Gate City.” Vivid, indeed, were the imaginations springing from his en chanted mind. The theatre of life possessed many charms, and like most young men, Willie was eager to become an actor. After much debate in his own mind, he decided to follow the beaten track of his father, and launched his bark on the sea of mercantile life. Little business, however, of a mercantile character was transacted for some time. The loadstone of his soul was not to be found amid the folds ot dry goods. He worshipped not at the shrine of mammon, but was desirous of forming a connubial union with her on whom he had lavishly bestow ed the deepest affection. But a few flank movements were made wilh the greatest art and strate gy. when the fortress with all of her treasures rec pitulated. Maude’s soliloquy is now to be realized. She has left the ideal and merged into the pleasing realities of wedded life. As the beautiful crescent of the into the%ill orb of they are delight ed with the beautiful and imposing scenery of Tullulah and Toccoa, awed by the grandeur and sublimity of Niagara, refreshed and invigorat ed by imbibing pure draughts from the spriuor of Helen, perfumed with Arcadia’s most mellifluent odors and overwhelmed with visions from the white crested summit t { Parnassus.
