THE OLD. OLD STORY
Eager to ace, alie pres.-e i the aash,
The alight frame broke with a sudden crash,
Aud fell it into the street.
A splinter struck a gallant knight,
He upward glanced ; there met his sight
The little maiden sweet.
8he smiled ; he smiled ; you know the re
My tale you havealrc ady guesned,
The end of course is plaiu.
The maid confessed, drew back frum view,
The kuight passed ou amidst Ids crew—

COLORADO.
In tlio year that George Washing-
ton died,I’eggy O’Neill was born. Tiie
city of magnificent distances then had
ju»l three thousand inhabitants. Cons
pressmen—splashed and travel
stained—forded the Tiber on their
way to the Capitol, which was then
in c< uiso of construction, the corner
stone having been laid six years be
fore. Wnat changes were beheld, ill
men a.id manners, hy ono who lived
twywtfiocarii. '
lie down to the year of yAt past!
This was the lot ;of Peggy O’Neill.
While l’eggy O’Neill was still a
cliilil her father opened a tavern in
Washington. It was frequented by
young and reckless visitors to the
Capital. There were seen the livelier
Con-yr ssinen, and the wealthy South
erners, wlini affairs or pleasure
! brought to the political centre. Hen
ry Clay, in his taster days, frequented
O’Neili’s tavern, aud was a fair type
of those among whom 1’eggv O’Neill
grew up. A fairer bud never ripened
into a more perfect blossom. She was
as brilliant in intellect as she was
eraceiul in movement, and as sparks
ling in conversational charms .as she
wa? beautiful in person. She was am
bitious, aud her childish associations
stimulated in tlie young maiden the
determination to enter the magic cir
cle of that society upon whose thre h-
I hold she had stood, gaz'ng tu the glo
and marked attention to Mrs. Eaton.
General Jackson was in a position to
name his successor, and a letter'writ-
teh by Daniel Webster, in 1830, to a
personal friend says: “Mr. Van Bu-
ren has evidently, at this moment,
the lead in influence aud importance,
lie coutrols all the pages on the back
stairs, ami Hatters what at preseat
set tus to be the Aaron’s serp.ut
among the i’resideul’s desires—a set-
tied purpose of making out the lady
ot whom so much lias been said, a
person of reputation. It is odd enough
but too evident to be doubled, that
■ u *-•“
during great political effects, and may
very probably determine who will be
the successor to the present Chief
Magistrate.’’
Maj. Eaton was promoted to the
rank of General, and appointed Gov
ernor of Florida. Mrs. Eaton en
joyed her life iu the Land of Flowers;
it was a quiet, refreshing episode. On
the expiration of his term of office in
Florida, Gen. Eatou was appointed
Minister to .Spain, an office which he
filled for thirteen years. Of all the
periods of her career, probably Mrs.
Eaton’s life abroad was the most bril
liant. All her life she looked back
to it and spoke of it with pride and
pleasure, aud in memory still livtd iu
her ‘‘Chateau en Espague.’’ She was
greatly admired and her social con
quests are among the brilliant tradi
tions of Madrid. Mrs. Eaton always
spoke of her lile abroad as being very
pqetslo write tiie most oeauiiful of his
poeins. Nmne time after Margaret
IrNeill became Mrs. Timberlake she
was iu Baltimore, apil there Edward
Coato Pinckney saw and admired lmr.
Going home he wrote his « Health.”
and dedicated it to ” The most hean'.i-
fu! woman in America.” Was she
selfish, was ambition her dominant
trail, was she happy? It is certain
that she enjoyed intensely tli" advan-
vantages ot official stat’on, ami -lie
wa« undoubtedly fond of display.

WHY GAXBETTA BROKE BIS ENUAGEXEYT.
Gambetta is a bachelor; hnt he
has not lived so long wit hout having
contemplated marriage. Tiie stury
of his engagement to an heiress in
Western France, and its su
breaking off, give us a fresh glii
of his character. From the tin
his leaving his hnnible home at
hors till hfr rise to the highest
public personages, Gambetta..
a faithful, loving, devoted;
with a faithful, loving, devoted aunt,
who (jsd followed him to Paris, and
who made, everywhere Ire went, a
pleasant ^ome for him. She was at
once bis msid-of-all-work and his con
genial i companion; and he was as
deeply attached to her as she to him.
His engagement to a handsome aud
accomplished girl, with a dot of seven
millions, was a shock to the good
aunt;.hot she yielded gracefully to
the inavilable. Wlu-n the arrange
ments lor the marriage were being
discussed, the young lady took it into
Iter head to make it a condition ol
their union that the aunt should be
exclude^ from the new establishment.
She was* scarcely elegant enough to
adorn gilded saloons. Gambetta ex
plained pow much bis auut had been
to him; -the rich taauty was only the
more obdurate. Gambetta took up
h’a hat- apd with* profound 'bow,
“Adieu,* tmid he; “we were'not
made to understand each other.”
And the marriage wa- put off iorever.

Court dinner was a lengthy and l»bo- , evidence of ambition in her first mar-
rious ceremony, and Nfrs. Eaton, not
i reliug very strong at that time, was
somewhat reluctant to go. “ I kept
on hoping that my dress would not
come from Paris,” she said, '‘but it
did come, a beautiful pale blue velvet,
and it was c ad ' so small that I could

be worth recording but for the fact
that htter in the day, ia consequence
of tho light lacing she fainted away
and had to leave the dinner table. It
was an innovation. No one else had
ever been known to faint away’ at a
royal dinner paity. The barriers of
Spanish etiquette had never been so
tar carried away as to allow any one
to leaje the table before the Queen
rose. “It cannot be done,” said the
ladies in waiting, “such a thing was
never heard of.’’ But it must, be
done,” said General Eaton, “my.wife

clouded. While Air. Timberlake was
at sea. his wife remained at O’Neill’s
tavern, where Maj. Eaton, Senator
from Tennessee, boarded tor ten
years. Mr. Timberlake died in 1828.
It was reported that in a fit ol mel
ancholy he had committed suicide.
Soon after, Maj. Eaton and Airs.
Timberlake, whose names had already
been coupled by the gossip of the
hour, were married. The wife ot
Andrew Jauksdn was much attached
to Peggy O’Neill and her mother,
and Gen. Jacks' n became the faithful
and tenacious friend of the blooming
beauty. Gen. Jackson advised the
marriage with Mrs. Timl erl-tke when
Maj. Eaton consulted him about it,
and a tew weeks later appoir, id the
happy bridegroom Secretary e. War.
Then Mrs. Eaton’s troubles began.
As a Senator’s wife, Mrs. Calhoun
and the wives of the Cabinet minis
ters had called upon her, hut they
were opposed to addmitting her into
their ranks. The President took up
the cudgels for iiis friend. When Or.
Ely, a Philadelphia -clergyman, re
monstrated in r letter in which the
current charges against the Secretary’s
wile were set forth, the President
responded in an epistle of formidable
length, in which he pronounced the
atones vile shmders, and held Henry
Clay chiefly responsible for putting
them in circulation. Dr. Ely was
not wholly convinced, whereupon tho
gallant defender of temale innocoi eo
sent him ajOteond argumentative let
ter. Nq^Content with this, he insti
tuted a careful and protracted inves
tigation, his own records of which,
Air. Parton says, would till an eighty-
five |>ago biography. He ended With
the conclusion with which he began,
that Mrs. Eatou was a much injured
woman. The President held to liia
opinion that Mrs. Eaton was, to use
his own words, “as chaste as a virgin,’’
nnd the Presidential family ceased to
attend tile chnrcli of Air. Cumpliell,
by whom Dr. Ely had been
invited to intervene. President
Jackson had an iron will, hut that
of the women of W asningion proved
squally Stab • 1 A-Tea ..<tftec-se. k-
ers catfei Affr^ Eaton, l ot
Mn. Calhoun, Mn. Berrien, and
even Mrs. Donaldson wife of the Pres-
ident’s nephew and private secretary
would not do so. The hitter lost his
position fur six months on this ac
count. Martin Van Buren, Secreta
ry oi State, was- a widower without
daughters and could therefore afford
lo be polite. He called upon Mrs.
Eaton and nude parties for her, but
he could not compel his colleagues
and the foreign Ministers with wives
to do the same. Mr. Vaughan, the
British Minister, gave a ball at which
Mrs. Eaton was present, -llnmst ev
ery cotillon which she attempted to
join was brok- n up. llcr host con
ducted her to the supper table and
none uftlie la-lies appeared to know
that she was present. .It the Russian
Minister’s ball tiie wile of tbe Dutch
Minister, sorely against her will was
taken to supper by Mij. Eatou. Ou
arriving a. iho head she found Mrs.
Etluu sitting at the table with an
empty chair sitting Inside her intend

high spirited Batavian declined to

Mrs. Eaton’s two children, Virginia
and Margaret Timberlake, were with
her in Madrid, and Virginia’s beauty
was a matter of universal remark.
“ Kiss the little Americana,” said the
Queen to her daughters, when the
.'Imerie.iu Minister’s family were ma
king their adieux, “ tor nothing so
beautiful was ever seen in Spain lies
lore; or ever will be again.’’ Isa
bella drew back haughtily, but the Id-
tauta, with her usual sweetness, kissed
her. The “ Little Americana” re
turned to Washington, and grew up
to be one of the most beautiful wo

haughty woman. Phillip Barton
Key, handsome, dissolute and recks

ground of his dissipation. Several
elopements were planned and fras-
trnted On one occasion, when Key
cabled at the house to see her, her
mother sent down word that V irginia
was sick and he could not sve her.
Flinging the door wide open, he set
spurs to his horse and rode up the
stairs into the room where she lay
sick. He was determined lo carry
her away with him, and the girl, in
fatuated and recklessly in love, would
have gone with him. But at last, the
affair was broken off, and alter a bril

In J350, Gen. Eaton died, and, a
secoud time a widow, Mrs. Eaton un
dertook the care and oducatiou of her
grandchildren. One of tho teachers
was a dancing master named Buck
iguaui. Buy as he was Mis. Eaton
married him. In spile ol a marriage
contract which had secured her prop
erty to herself, lie finally got it all,
personal aud real estate, into his own
hands, and eloped with the. grand
daughter, Emily Randolph. They
went to Europe. Airs. Eaton pri -

back to Washington, where she re

ten or remembered oniy in pity,
through the sorrows of her later
days. •
It was a strange eventful history.
None deny Mrs. Eaton’s wondrous
beauty. There are old men in Wash
ington today who recall the soil
gray eye, the light chestnut hair, the
perfect contour of taro and chiseling
of feature, the complexion exquisitely
dear and soft, - the form ut mulilusa
proportions. President Jsckson- was
