To some of our readers, doubtless, the legend o
“Peeping Tom, of Coventry,” will be new, while
j others may never have chanced to meet Tenny
-1 son’s beautiful version of it:
The Lady Clodiva.
BY ALFRED TBNNTSON.
j 1 waited for the train at Coventry;
! I hung with grooms and porters on the bridge
; To watch the three tall spires; and there 1 shaped
I *“• Clt y s ancient legend into this :
I Not only we, the latest seed of time
New men, that in the flying of a wheel
!'o- V t *? WU the past » not ou!v we , that prate
Os rights and wrongs, have loved the people well
And loathed to see them over-taxed ; but she
; o' d m o p P. and underwent, and overcame
* * Borneo of a thousand summers back •
j Godiva, wile to that grim Earl who ruled’
i }“ Coventry: for when he laid a tax
i Upon his town, and all the mothers brought
Ttietr children, clamoring, “If we pav we starve ”
Hhe sought her lord, and found Inin, where he
strode
| ü bo “ t ,h ? hail among his dogs, alone •
His beard a foot before him, and his hair
A yard behind. She told him of their tears,
- nd prayed him, “If they pav this tax thev
I starve.
| Whereat he stared, replying—half-amazed
| * 011 w, »uld not let your little finger ache
i For such as these!” “But I would die,” said she.
j ‘augned, a, l( i swore by Peter and bv Paul;
filliped at the diamond in her ear ;
| ‘Ch ! ay, ay, ay, you talk !” “Alas 1” she said,
But prove me what it is I would not do.”
; From a heart as rough as Esau’s hand,
He answered: “Ride you naked through the town,
j -^ nd repeal it!” and nodding—as in scorn—
j parted, with great strides, among his dogs.
So, left alone, the passions of her mind.
As winds from all the compass shift and blow,
: Made war upon each other for an hour,
’Till pity won. She sent a herald forth,
I And bade him cry—with sound of trumpet—all
1 lie hard conditions ; but that she would loose
The People; therefore as thev loved her well,
From then till noou no foot should pace the street,
No eve look down, when passing; but that all
Should keep within—ddbrshut and window barred.
Then fled she to inmost bower, and there
i Unclasped the wedded eagles of her belt—
The grim Earl’s gift; but ever, at a breath,
She lingered—looking like a summer moon
Halt dipped in cloud—anon she shook her head
And showered the rippled ringlets to her knee ;
Cneltjd herself in haste; adown the stair
Stole on ; and, like a creeping sunbeam, slid
From pillar unto pillar, until she reached
The gate-way—there she found her palfrey trapt
In purple, blazoned with armorial gold.
Then shone she forth, clothed with ehastitv ;
The deep air listened round her as she rode, '
Aud a'l the low wind hardly breathed, for fear.
T he little wide-mouthed heads upon the spout
Had cunning eves to see ; the burking cur
Made her cheek flame; her palfrey’s foot-fall shot
Light horrors through her pulses; the blind walls
Here full of chinks and holes; and overhead
Fantastic gables, crowding, stared, but she
Not less through all b r >re up till, last, she saw
The white-flowered elder thicket from the field
Gleam through the Gothic archway in the wall.
Then she rode back, clothed on with chastity ;
And one low churl, compact of thankless earth,’
The fatal by-word of all years to come,
Boring a little auger-hole, in fear
Peeped ; but his eyes, before they had their will,
Were shriveled into darkness in his head.
And drooped before him! So the powers, who
wait
On noble deeds, canceled a sense misused;
And she, that knew not, passed; and all at once,
\S itli twelve great shocks of sound, the shameless
noon
Was dashed and hammered from an hundred
towers,
One after one; but even then she gained
Her bower,“whence rising, robed and crowned,
To meet her lord, she took the tax away,
And built herself an everlasting name.
Distressing and Singular Suicide.
A man named Cornelius C. McAcuffk, a per
iodical dealer, committed suicide in New York on
Friday night, bv taking a large dose of bitter al
monds. At the coroner’s inquest the following
letters, among others, came to light:
New York, March 31st, 1856.
To Coroner Connery:
Dear Sir: Believing that a man has the right
of disposing of his own as he may deem proper,
provided he does so without injury to others, and
when he has no one for whom he is bound to pro
vide, 1 have determined to retire from this world,
and this communication is to prevent any misap
prehensions about my death ; no one is aware of
m.i intentions, lie through whom I have procur
ed the poison, 1 have deceived; lie is therefore al
together innocent.
l’he reason of my determination is simply this,
that some years ago 1 formed an attachment, un
fortunately “loving not wisely, but too well.” The
object of my idolatry proved unworthy of inv af
fections, but this could not alter me, nor weaken
the spell that bound me to her. 1 have used every
exertion in my power to obliterate her image, but
in vain. 1 find after change of scenes, Ac., noth
ing can effect the purpose, and it is altogether out
of the question that 1 could ever love another wo
man.
lam indeed desolate! No home ! Nor anything
resembling it. The four walls of a bed-room when
1 retire at night—-what object then to toil away?
Fruitless, unproductive, what good am I to myself
or society ? None, only in somebody’s way, there
fore f shall retire. 1 well know how my friends
will be horrified at this step, as they will regard it
in the light of “living in the face of Providence,”
“going into the presence of God uncalled, unßent
for.” 1 respect their ideas, although I don’t coin
cide with them. The great Creatorof the universe
knows the secrets of all hearts and “Sees as equal
Lord of all, a hero perish or a sparrow fall.”
I desire to be buried in the plainest manner, and
at as little cost as possible. I cannot conclude
without expressing the deep sense of obligation !
am under to Messrs. Coleman and Stetson, of the
Astor House, for their great kindness to me, and
liiv acknowledgments are due and are hereby free
ly given to all the employees of that establishment;
since I first entered it 1 have received nothing bin
kindness.
I have written a statement of my affairs as well
ns my excited state will permit, and 1 doubt not
that my assets will produce more than any debts
of mine in this country will amount to. This state
ment 1 shall address to Mr. Butler, hut 1 don’t wish
it to he published, as it could only gratify idle cu
liositv ; for i presume this letter will answer all
the ends of public justice in reference to the cause
of my death, Ac.
In conclusion,! beg to say that / am at peace
with aU mankind , and if I have any euennes 1
freelv forgive them, and hope I shall be forgiven
by those I may have injured.
I never did a deliberate wrong that 1 am aware
of, although I am aware that, a weak fellow, I
have been wanting in firmness to say “no.”
Wishing you every happiness, anil asking noth
ing of the world but the charity of its silence.
I am, dear sir, yours respectfully,
Cornelius C. McAuliffe.

New York, April 2s.— Austria intends occupy*

ment can be got up in excuse for events which arc
;of daily increasing importance. Additional Aus
trian troops are ordered to remain in the States now
occupied by Austrian forces. The garrisons in
Lombardy are to be increased, in fact Austria is
already at war with Piedmont, though their ar
mies are not face to face, and a struggle cannot be
; long delayed. Austria will, however, try to post
pone a quarrel in the field until the policy of France
and England towards Italy is declared, the work
iof reconciling the affairs’of that country having
) commenced in Parts.
The Emperor of Austria has signed the treaty.
I When the ratifications have been made public, a
thanksgiving will be proclaimed throughout the

Congressional.
THIRTY-FOURTH CONGRESS —FIRST SESSION.
II AsnixGTON, April 23.— Senate.— Mr. Hunter re
ported back the deficiency bill with the disagree
ing amendments of the two Houses, and moved
that the Senate insist on its amendments, anu ask
a committee of conference.
Mr. Pugh opposed the Washington water works
appropriation, and moved that the Senate recede
from that amendment.
The motion was not agreed to—yeas 7, nays 32
—and the motion to appoint a committee of" con
ference was then carried.
Mr. Hamlin introduced a bill to incorporate the
Atlantic and Paoilic. Union Railroaa Compa
n\■ He said this bill had been seut him bv an in
dividual whom he did not know, with a requesi
that it should be offered as a substitute for all oth
er Pacific railroad hi] 1 .-, but as lie did not think
proper to do tiiai, he introduced it as a separate
bill, and moved its reference to the Pacific railroad
special committee. He read some extracts from
the letter accompanying the bill, in which its au
thor says it is the most important bill that has ever
been presented in Congress since the adoption - f
the American Constitution, and whatever party
shall first adopt it will be sure to succeed in the
Presidential campaign. The reading of these ex
tracts occasioned much laughter.
Mr. Weller thought there was no need of refer
ring the bill, as the committee has already re
ported.
Several Senators exclaimed, “Oh, yes, let it go.”
Mr. Vi eller—Well, if he sends it there, I will
pledge myself that none of the committee will ever
read it. (Laughter.)
Mr. Brown spoke on the Kansas question, after
which Mr. Benjamin obtained the floor, and the
bill was postponed until Friday next.
Mr. Stuart moved to take up the river and har
bor bills. After some debate the motion was re
jected—yeas l!t, nays 22.
The Naval Board question was resumed, and
Mr. Biggs gave way to allow Mr. Bell, of Tennes
see, to make some remarks relative to Lieutenant
Maury. Before he had concluded, the Senate
went into Executive session and shortly after ad
journed.
Horsk.—Mr. Nichols made an explanation re
specting his vote for Mr. Banks as Speaker, called
forth by the recent speech of his colleague, at
Hamilton, Ohio. Ho denied that the printing and
binding question influenced his vote against his
colleague, and for Mr. Banks.
Mr. Campbell disavowed having intended to
east the least imputation on Mr. N'ichol's integ
rity, hut, at the same time, lie believed that the
printing question delayed the organization of the*
House.
Mr. Ready asked Mr. Campbell sundry questions
with reference to what the latter, in his speech at
Hamilton, said about the southern Americans in
connection with the Speakership.
Mr. Campbell replied that no formal proposition
was made by members of that party, but it was
suggested to him privately, by persons not pre
tending to represent it, that if he would consent to
endorse the twelfth section of the Philadelphia
platform, the probal>ility|was that lie would acquire
strength for the Speakership from that quarter.
Mr. Morgan objected to further explanations.
The Senate bill to remit duties on goods, wares
and merchandize, destroyed by lire, was taken up.
The House, by five majority, that sustained the de
cision of the chair add the hill did not make an ap
propriation of money, and therefore need not, un
der the rules, be reported to the committee of the
whole on the state of the Union. (Several days
ago this decision was reversed).
After an unsuccessful motion to make the bill
the special order for the {third Tuesday in May, il
tyus sent to the committee of the whole on the state
of the Union.
The House passed the Senate bill amendatory of
the act of l sv>, establishing the Circuit Court for

MELL’S PATENT PLOW STOCK!
r»UIE undersigned has invented and patented
i a most valuable improvement in the PLOW
STOCK—the county rights for which tie desires to
sell. lie prefers to let others speak its praise, and
therefore introduces the following certificates, from
two planters, well and favorably known in the
community in which they reside. He might in
troduce many others, but the Plow Stock will
speak for itself whenever examined.
JAMES B. MELL.
Riceboro’, Liberty county, Ga.
This is to certify that I have, with nit’ own hands,
thoroughly tested the netvlv invented Plow Stock
of James ’ll. Mell, Esq. In point of simplicity and
perfection, I have neverseen or used its equal. In
u is combined every Ihing that 1 could wish in a
Plow Stock, and it, in my opinion, is the cheapest
and the best that has ever been offered to the pub
lic. 1 speak from having used it with my own
hands. I was raised to follow the plow, and think
that I know how one ought to run. I would cheer
fully thank any one, who will thoroughly try it, to
point out to me one single fault in it. (t is’ easier
upon the horse and the plowman than any that 1
have ever used.
The principle upon which you regulate the depth
oi the Plow is so simple, and yet so perfect, as to
commend itself to any one; and the Stock is adapt
ed to any kind of Plow Hoe. It is, moreover, just
as light as any could desire it to be. I would re
commend to any and all, if they wish the best and
cheapest Plow Stock, without hesitation to get Mr
James B. Moll's. I). \V. Wilson.
Pentield, (la., April 15, 1856.
In company with several others, 1, this day, wit
nessed the trial of Mr. James B. Moll's Plow Stock,
by Mr. lb W. Wilson, and cheerfully state that ali
present were fully satisfied that it does everything
as stated above. 1 would, moreover, state that 1
have been using them on my farm for several
months, and every day serves to confirm me in the
opinion of the superiority of Mr. Moll's Plow Stock
to all others now in use. Tno\i \s P. .1 inks.

TO THE CITIZENS OF AUGUSTA.
t would can your attention to mv new pre
para.ion, known as “BLISS’ DYSPEPTIC REM
.vIEDY.” This medicine is anew medical com
inund, and is the result of long practice, exten
sive observation, and close study of all diseases
having their origin in a disordered state of stom
ach, and adapted to every stage of these diseases,
f rom their incipient symptom to those in which they
nave assumed a Chronic form; and although but
yet in its infancy, has gained a notoriety and repu
tation very seldom attained by any “ patent” pre
paration. This Remedy is no quack nostrum, got
up to gull the people, and fleece them out of their
money, but a medicine, which, together with the
treatment prescribed to accompany the taking of
the medicine, has the sanction of years of success
ful application in private practice, and will not fail
to cure the most stubborn case of Dyspepsia, no
matter of how long standing, or how severe it may
be, providing the directions are closely followed
out. It was not suddenly hit vpon, nor dreamed
-of, but is the accretion of facts and experiments
collected in the daily rounds of duty as a practis
ing Physician, and is given to the public in a popu
lar form, in the hope, as in the belief, that it will
not fail in giving relief to the sufferer from Dys
pepsia, and all other diseases having their origin
lu the stomach, in any instance when thedirections
are properly attended to. It has received the high
est encomiums from the first physicians throughout
the North and South—it has been tried, recom
mended and certified to by some of the most emi
nent jurists and statesmen in the country, all of
which shall appear in due time. Physicians of
large practice are now using it and relying upon
it alone in these diseases in their practice, and re
commend it to their friends as worthy their best
confidence.
It is entirely dissimilar to any and every prepar
tion of the kind now before the people. The ori
ginator, entertaining views and opinions somewhat
at variance with the prescribed notions among
medical men generally, as regards tlie nature of
these diseases, has in this preparation brought to
gether medical agents of known utility and worth,
in the form of a new combination, making a com
pound altogether and entirely new, and one that
will not fail in effecting a cure, if directions are
followed and persevered in. The undersigned is
well aware that the same encouragement has been
given, and the same promises made, over and over
again, by manufacturers of patent medicines, as
regards tlieir different preparations, and as vouch
er for the curative qualities of this preparation,
and for the purpose also of giving additional
weight to whatever he may say as regards this new
preparation, he would beg to refer to the fact, that
lie is the originator, manufacturer and proprietor
of the well known “Jacob’s Cordial,” the cura
tive properties of which in Cholera, Dysentery and
Diarrhea, are now being proclaimed by thousands
in every section of the country, and as being all
that he ever said of it.
Tin- undersigned does not profess to be a philan
thropist, or that he is uninfluenced by considera
tions of pecuniary profit in placing the Remedy he
fore the people, but he iA>c know that while lie max
be realizing a pecuniary profit, fellow-sufferers will
realize that which is of more worth to them than
the wealth of India.
Dyspepsia, like Gout, may he said to be a fash
ionable disease; it more readily than any other, in
various of its forms, and to a greater extent, find
its victims in the wealthy and aristocratic circles,
especially in large cities, and its insidious work
ings are often the real, though undiscovered cause
of the sallow cheek, the dull, heavy eyes, and gen
eral inertia- indisposition to either mental or phy
sical effort, which are erroneously attributed to
other causes.
Scenes of luxurious ease are not, however, alone
the haunts of this destroyer of the health and en
joyment of myriads of mankind. Other conditions
of life there are in which it revels oxer faded and
emaciated forms, and dispirited and despairing
hearts. The sedentary labors of the counting
house, and the study, not less than the intense ex
citement and irregularities of busier occupations
of mercantile life, are promotin' of it; each daily
adding to the number of its subjects. But our
(that is the physician und his patients) object is
not, having once discovered the disease, so much
to trace it back to its source, as to remove it from
where we find it, and to establish a healthful and !
vigorous action of the various organs, by use ot
the proper agencies, and to restore to their natural
functions these organs which had been perverted
bv disease. For all
NERVOUS SUFFERERS,
This preparation, with itsaocompanyingdircctions
for treatment, are peculiarly applicable; and if the
former is taken and >i. hi r closely complied with
it will not fail of curb' .
Also, to those stiff- vom DISEASE OF THE
LIVER, tt is parti u 1 c enoiub-d, and most
admiral lv adapted. NDDTBILITA
TEDSVSTEMS, itw-;;: bt i • ,»pt issessutg tonic
prop- ics to a pre-emineu -<>, and very ad
mirably adapted to a bug i .of the female
sex, whose debilitated am. i: constitutions
requirt au artificial resu.nr.
In using this Remedy, i-s .n- It ial effects may
be toorted for at once, i will begin to relieve, an'd
the patient will know that recov-ry has commenc
ed within forty-eight or seventy-two hours, or, at
farthest, by the time he has taken the contents of
one package. To those trying the effect of this
Remedy, I would propoed a test that will demon
strate to the patient that he is being benefitted.
If it is used in a case of Dyspepsia, where pain
or other distressing feelings attend the taking of
food upon the stomach, I suggest that the patient,
after using the Remedy for three or four days, and
following closely the other directions, partake
of some articles of food which he had known pre
vtously to disagree with him, and he will discover
that it no longer produces the disagreeable effect.
Sufferers from Dyspepsia, nervous sufferers, inva
lids from disease of the Liver, and from broken,
worn out and debilitated constitutions, try one
package; follow out closely all the accompanying
directions, and prove the truth or falsity of what
I have said of the Remedy. I would, however,
remark, that unless you determine to take the medi
cine and follow out all directions ns given, I pre
fer you would let it alone entirely, and not buy it;
preferring much rather to go without your money
than have you take it without deriving benefit.
