[For The Sunny South.] EDGAR ALLEN POE. A Memorial Volume. By Sara Sigournet Rice. Balti. more: Turnbull Brothers. 1877. It has not often happened that I have found my. self so enthralled by a book that I have been un able to lay it down until I have read from the first to the very last word; but it has been certainly so with this Memorial Volume to Edgar A. Poe. The book is a perfect gem ; as to its entire get u p—it is exquisitely bound, of excellent clear type, and fine paper, and is embellished with a good likeness of the Poet, several engravings and with the rather unusual and very interesting addition of fac-simile letters from the well-known writers of the day, Tennyson, Longfellow, Swinburne Whittier, and others. It is a pleasure to hold in the hand merely to glance over, so tasty a speci men of the publisher’s art. And as to the con tents—my hours of steady perusal testify to their interest. But this is not all. We are not only in terested by the sketches given of the life, the strug gles and sufferings of one of America’s greatest geniuses, and by the account of the ceremonies on the occasion of the dedication of a monument to his memory, but our eyes fill and our hearts swell as we feel that at last at last the load of undeserved obloquy has been lifted from his name; and his de- famers silenced, while the tributes of appreciation of his rare genius and of sympathy for his sad life and untimely end have been ollered to his memo ry by the great spirits of England, France, Spain and Germany, as well as of his native land. In ail ages, there have been noble minds who have been tortured through life nnd crushed at last by cruel criticism nnd vile slanders, but Edgar A. Poe has the pre-eminence in such martyrdom. He was persecuted with diabolical ingenuity, during life, his dearly loved wife was hurried into her grave by anonymous letters, and his papers and manu scripts were given into the hands of his bitterest enemy, who, under the garb of friendship became his biographer and editor. So, while this friend gave to the world an edition of Poe’s work’s, with refined malice he attached thereto a memoir, in which while he pretends to excuse, he vilifies, nnd invents the most insidious lies to sustain the col oring he wishes to give. Thus pursuing his victim even beyond the grave with unrelenting ma lignity, for wherever Poe’s wonderful tales and “weird” poems find their way, side by side are the malicious inventions, nnd the excuses which damn with their paltry sophisms. We can well apply here the words of another most unhappy poet: THE WICKED WORLD. Oscar Hudson, colored, of Jersey city, N. J., in a fit of jealousy, seized his colored mistress, Martha Shuttle, threw her across a stove, and poured a kettle of hot water over her body. He then beat her dreadfully, and again placed her on the stove. Her injuries, of course, were fatal. Hudson was arrested. It has just transpired that Jacob Behene, a young well-to-do farmer, living in Columbia county, 111., some dozen miles from this city, who died very suddenly New Year’s Day, was poisoned by his wife, whom he married two years ago, and with whom he lived unhappily. Mrs. Behene is under arrest, and much excite ment prevails in the community. A Western newspaper has the following no tice: “ All notices of marriage where no bride cake is sent will be set up in small type and poked in an outlandish corner of the paper. Where a handsome piece of cake is sent, the notice will be put conspicuously in large letters; when gloves or other bridal favors are added, a piece of illustrative poetry will be given in ad dition. When, however, the editor attends the ceremony in person, and kisses the bride, it will have special notice—very large type and the most appropriate poetry than can be begged, borrowed or stolen.,’ “ ’Twas thine own genius gave tlic final blow And helped to plant the wound that laid thee low. So the struck eagle, stretched upon the plane No more through rolling clouds to soar again, View’d his own feather on the fatal dart, And winged the shaft that quivered in his heart.” While we owe to the mother country many and constantly renewed benefits, she has given us none more grateful to true hearts than the glorious vin dication of I’oe’s memory by John II. Ingram, for it has been left to an Englishman to unmask the pretended friend and false biographer and to re fute with all powerful truth his abominable cal umnies. 1 trust that Mr. Ingram’s name may be gratefully remembered wherever Edgar Poe is I known. And that booksellers and readers will show their practical appreciation of the truth, by refusing to sell or read any edition which bears the viper’s sting of Poe’s former biographer. If it be well to aid the living it is a glorious privilege to honor the noble dead. Miss Sara Sigourney Bice and her able assistants have honored themselves and their country by their ef forts to raise a monument to Poe’s memory. We are most happy to record the entire success oftheir labor of love. Of this charming Memorial Yol- lume we can only add, it is worthy of the genius ' who “spared no pains in considering, designing and elaborating with the highest and most minute finishing almost every subject he adopted.” S. E. Gabrett. Glittering Misery in Wash inton—A recenj Washington letter says: "The life of a statesman’s wife at the capital is not strewn with flowers. I was returning from the opera, and a friend sud denly twitched my elbow. ‘ Come here,’ he whispered, ‘and I will show’you something.’ It was a hack drawn up near the curb, the driver and horses of which seemed asleep. ‘ Well ?’ I asked. ‘ That hack,’ continued my friend in an undertone, ‘holds Mrs. . She comes here every night, almost, to wait for her husband, who is in the hall yonder, drinking and gam bling. She waits here hour after hour, and meeting him, takes him home without a word of reproach.’ ” Brutal Murder of a Woman by a Drunken Printer.—At 3Ii‘2 south Delaware street, Indian apolis, Frank Olden, a printer, shot and in stantly killed Caroline Pfeifer, wife of William Pfeifer, who resides at that number. Olden was an occasional boarder at the house of Pfeifer, and members of the family can assign no cause for the murder. The pistol was aimed at the woman’s head, and snapped four times before it discharged, when the ball took effect in the left temple, blowing the victim’s brains out. j The murderer was found at his lodgings soon after in bed, and was placed under arrest. He was in an intoxicated condition, and gave no reason for the killing further than that he had been mistreated by Mrs. I’feif'er. Another woman he said had also mistreated him, and would share the same fate. A Southern Cotton Planter. Gentlemen, you talk to me about not plantingso much cotton.

A Subscriber asks: "Is it proper for a young gentleman to call on a young lady repeatedly when she lias a lady \ friend visiting her, snd not call for that friend, when he has no serious intentions ?” . . .

A Romantic Marriage.— December 15th, Mr. IV. II. Venable, of Atlanta, was married to Miss Sallie Miller, of Lagrange. The ceremony was per formed at 1’once De Leon Springs, Atlanta, while the couple were upon horseback. No one was pres ent save the brother of the bride, the minister nnd a photographer, who took their photographs while they were sitting upon their steeds. This romance was not found out until the 2d instant, and the happy coupie did not live together until a few days ago. They passed through the city last night on a bridal tour to Florida. Two or three young gen tlemen of the city were to meet them last night at the depot. We congratulate the groom upon hav ing won so worthy a lady, nnd wish that their lives may always be one as rdeasnnt as an evening ride upon “horseback.”—Columbus Enquirer. Marriage of a Lynciiburgeb.—The Richmond Whiff of yesterday contains a long account of the marriage of Mr. Max Guggenheimer, of this city, and Miss Rosenbaum, of that city. The Whiff says : “The Eleventh-street Synagogue last night was the scene of a brilliant gathering of ladies nnd gen tlemen on the occasion of the nuptials of Mr. Max Guggenheimer, of Lynchburg, and Miss Bertha Rosenbaum, daughter of Mr. S. Rosenbaum, of this city. The sacred edifice was packed long before the hour appointed for the ceremonies. Not only was the Israelitish element of Richmond fully rep resented, but hundreds of tlieGentile friends of the bride s father and of the bridegroom were present. At half-past seven the bridal procession was heralded by the blast of a trumpet from the gallery, and then the happy pair preceded by several couples of bridesmaids and groomsmen, moved down the aisle as Kessnich’s orchestra played Mendelsshon’s wedding march. Of course the ob served of all observers was the bride. She was a brunette, young and beautiful, and was arrayed in a robe of elegant white brocade satin, with a white veil falling from her head over her costume. The groom was of handsome bearing, and is about thirty years of age. The pair ascended the dais in front of the altar, accompanied by the parents of each. The ceremony, which was of a very impos ing character, was performed by Dr. Renj. Szold, a rabbi of Baltimore, who officiated at the request of Mr. Gueggenbeimer. After the address a bendiction in the Hebrew language was recited, when a goblet of wine was handed by the rabbi to the couple, out of which they drank. Then the bridegroom placed the wed ding ring on the finger of the right hand of his bride, saying : “Be thou betrothed untome by this ring according to the law of Moses in Israel.” After this the couple drank again out of another goblet handed to them. Then the rabbi declared the married couple as husband and wife, the cere mony having been performed according to the laws cf religion and this State. He concluded with the priestly benediction. The wedding guests repaired to the Exchange Hotel, where the reception was held. At 11 o’clock several hundred ladies and gentleman sat down to an elegant supper, after which dancing was engaged in until a late hour. There were in attendance many prominent Is raelites from New York and Baltimore. ENIGMAS, PUZZLES, ETC.

Brown, was forbidden by the parents of Miss Emma Jared to visit her. He went to town, bought him a pistol, a butcher-knife and a quart of whisky, and going to Jared’s house, he quietly approached the family room, and throw ing open the door, stood with his knife in one hand, his pistol in the other, and enough of the whisky in him to make him a demon. When informed that Mr.JJared, for whom he inquired, was from home, he entered the room, ordered all out but the young lady he professed to love, and said: “Emma, you and I must die here !” She screamed and ran, but he shot her dead, and then himself. He died with his pistol clenched in his hand, his knife under him, and his empty bottle in his pocket. A Woman Who Wanted Damages for Being Kissed.—An amusing case was tried before Judge Hulett in the County Court Friday morning. The plaintiff was Mary Schaup, who resides on Gibbs street; the defendant was Adam Most, who, like his ancient ancestor of the same name, is a gardener by trade. He resides on Bay street. It appears that one day Mrs. Schaup was in the house of a neighbor named Mrs. Stehle, when Most entered. After feeling a while with some lettuce which was in the house, and being in a somewhat frisky mood, he seized Mrs. Schaup (so she says), and though somewhat hindered by a game leg, waltzed her around two or three times and then k’ssed her—yes, actually kissed her twice ! For taking this liberty she now sues lor damage. Judge Chnmasero advocated her case with his usual eloquence, while Mr. Stull, who oppeared for the defendant, made some quotations about the “manthat layeth his hand on a woman,” which he said was from Shak- speare, but which Mr. Chumasero said was from Cowper, while the Judge thought it was from the Bible. All this about a couple of stolen kisses. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant.—Rochester ( X. Y.) Express. A Southern Plantation Scene when Cotton Planting was Profitable. DRAMATIC NOTES. Edwin Booth is drawing large audiences at the Lyceum Theater, in New York City. Dan ltice has commenced a tour through Miss issippi with his trained animals. “The Black Crook” has been withdrawn from the stage of the New York Grand Opera House, after seventeen performances. The Dramatic News says that a formal separa tion has been arranged between Kate Claxtou, the actress and her husband. Celia Logan says there are nearly one thousand ballet girls idle in New York, and if their pas won’t support them their mas must. Mr. John T. Ford has purchased the exclusive right to “Tom Cobb,” for Washington and Balti more, from Samuel French & Son. T. W. Davy and Joseph Brooks, managers of the Nashville and Memphis Theatres, have sued Clara Louise Kellogg and her manager, to recover $1,- 000, alleged to be due by a failure of their song stress to carry out a contract to sing four nights at the Memphis Theatre last week. While Barry Sullivan, the renowned tragedian, was playing “Richard the Third” at the Drury Lane Theater in London, recently, he fell, when it was discovered that the sword point of “Rich mond” had struck Mr. Sullivan’s cheek, severely lacerating it, and threatening the destruction of his eye, that calamity being fortunately averted by the fact that the end of the weapon was broad, in stead of pointed. Madame Nilsson’s next visit will be to Holland, under the direction of Herr Ullman, if indeed, she is not already there. She contemplated operatic performances in Vienna during the present month, and she will sing in German at the Imperial Opera House, in the “Huguenots,” “Lohengrin,” “Faust,” “Mignon” and “Hamlet.” Kate B., of Tnlbotton, desires to know if it is right and proper, after an engagement, for the girl to break off her engagement should she find ont that her lover was given to a vice or bad habit she did not know. Should she try to win him from it as a wife, or break off the en gagement and run no risk ? . . . We would say, bet ter to break off the engagement and be honest and candid about it. Make bad habits good cause, and etick to it; that is the way to reform and impress men. “Peter S., of Greenesboro, asks if the expression, “ he's a brick,” is a slang phrase or an historical expres sion. ... It is both, we think, but we will give you the historical account of the expression. It is said that when Agcsilans was king of Sparta, a stranger visited the city. lie called to see the king, and remarked that lie saw no walls around the city. Agesilans told liim he would show him the walls, and took him to the encampment of the Lacedemonians, and pointing to his army, said: “ There you see the walls of Sparta, and every man is a brick.” My dear Miss Nannie : The great love I have hitherto expressed for you is false, and I find my indifference towards you increases daily. The more I see of you. the more you appear in my eyes an object of contempt. I feel myself every way disposed and determined to bate you. Believe me, 1 bad no intention to offer you my hand. Our last conversation has left a tedious insipidity which has by no means given me the most exalted ideas of your character; your temper would make me very unhappy, and if we were united. I should experience but the haired of my friends and the everlasting dis pleasure in living with you. I have a heart to bestow, but I do not desire you to imagine it at your service. 1 could give it to no one more inconsistent and capricious than yourself,and less capable of doing honor to my choice and family. Miss Nannie, I hope you will be persuaded that I speak sincerely, and you will do me a favor by avoiding me, and excuse taking the trouble of answering this. Your letters are always full of impertinence, and you have not a shadow of wit and good sense. Adieu, adieu !

Mr. Editor,—The above was received a short time since by a young lady in Richmond. Virginia, who, by reading every other line, discovered that her lover wae de cidedly more loving than his letter at first indicated. This method of keeping the old folks in the dark as to the true state of affairs will doubtless be adopted in the futnre by many of the young folks who experience difficulty in bringing mama and papa into measures.
