MAXY WALTON
I ■
BY I.OVOLA.
Mary Walton ! Mary Walton !
Tell me, tell me, where is she;
Is she playing with the <slildren
On the daisy-sprinkled lea, ,
Gathering Flowers, i ,
From the bowers,
Where can Mary Walton bet i |
Go and seek her by the river,
Bending o’er the lilies fair,
Wading in tlie crystal waters,
See if yon can find her there,
She is straying, * '
teyng in staying, I (
See if Mary Walton’s there!
Hie thee to the bine waved ocean,
Seek her on the pebbly strand,
Gath’ring tiny shells ami sea-weed '
In her chubby baby hand,
Step ye gently,
Seek intently, 1
Little footprints in the sand.
Little children hasten thither,
Thro’ the dingle o'er the lea.
Seek her on the hill and mountain, I ;
Lead her geutly home to me,
Little fairy, ; I
Laughing Mary, ' .
Little ones she’ll come with thee.
And they sped—those little children,
Lightly-footed o'er the sand,
Sought her in the shadowy valley,
Sought her on the pebbly strand,
“Hid ye find her,
Did ye bind her,
Gently to your little baud ?”
“ Mary Walton 1 yes we found her,
Sleeping 'ueatii a hillock lone.
Blue-ey ed daisies watching o’er her
And her name upon a stone, ;
Pointing Heavenward,
Ever Heavenward. i
There has Mary Walton down !”
i
CONVENTS AND < (Kjl ETRY.
“How hard it is to decide for one.ilf! Il i
there’s a trial in the world it lies in the ever i
ci>e of free will.'’ »
“Wherefore, Lizzie?" asked her father.
“Os course we wish to do everything that
pleases our fancy,*' replied Lizzie, “and ot
course we wish to oblige all n.ir frienss ; and !
so of course we priqiosc and promise every- I
thing, until one thing gets m aiisther •• way, i
and all are confused, every body 's disappointed, I
ami we don't du :Uiything at all. I:n tired of i
life. 1 wish I were a MUM.” i <
“Let me see,’' said her father- "how many .
gentlemen have a<ked my leave to pay their i
addresses to you t ’ .'
"Nine, 1 suppose." said Lizzie. <
“Ami how many have von at various times t
accepted ?”
"Eighteen,” she replied.
"That is a fair beginning for a nun—but 1
what's the trouble now <"
“Why, to tell the truth, father. I have mad, I
seven engagements for this afternoon, and til! i
with different individuals. What shall I do?"
“Say that being indisposed you have decided I
on remaining at home and reading the paper
to me, like a dutiful child.'
Lizzie’s face brightened. “1 know a plot I
worth two of that," said she; “We will take a ■
walk together; for one doesn't wish to be po- i
ring over politics on such an afternoon as this.
Wait till evening, and then I'll read you to .
sleep.” _ . I
“Oh you must excuse me, child, I am busy
this afternoon.” >:
"But 1 cannot excuse you.” said Lizzie.- i
“We shall both enjoy the walk ; and think ot .
being preferred to all the beaux in \\ ilmington! .
I will wear my gray mantle and my new Paris
bonnet, and you'll be proud of your daughter.
There 1 know you will go, 1 see it in your face.
1 have rung the bell, ami when Mary comes
you must get ready, for I'm away."
An only child, educated by a doting father—
for her mother had died at her birth—Lizzie
Ice had known as little trouble or restraint as
could well full to a mortal s lot. Accomplish
ed and sprightly, elegant rather than beautiful,
with tine hair,"a pleasant voice, and uttquea
tiouuble taste in dress, she took the lead in the
gay society of Wilmington. Many lovers made
the fullest, possible acknowledgement of her
fascinations by offering hands and hearts,
which were accepted for awhile in an obliging
way, and then forgotten.
Mr. Leo was yet in the prime of life, hand
some iu person, courtly in manners. Wealthy
and indolent, he had gradually abandoned his i
profession, and suffered his fine abilities to rust j ,
unused while lie devoted himself to the enjoy- i
ment of belle-letters and society. He and Liz- ‘
zie were mutually fond of -ieh oilier; and
took care as seldom as possible to cross each
other’s inclinations.
“ Mr. Breckenridge,” said Mary, as she
brought her master’s coat, “the gentleman who
was here last night is in the parlor waiting for ,
Miss Lizzie
“Didn’t you know that Miss Lizzie was
out!”
“ No sir,” replied the servant, “ I saw her in '
her room two minutes ago. I expect she's go
ing to walk with Mr. Breckenridge—he said
so."
“ Lizzie must really mend her ways." mut
tered the father. “ What can I say for her I — |
The youth is no fop. I like him, and he de- .
serves better treatment.”
Lizzie appeared in due time, in magnificent -
finery, and found her father alone in the dran ing- 1
room. “ Why, I thought Norval Breckenridge '
was here ?” said she.
“ He has been here,” replied her father, “but ,
in spite of my apologies went home offended, I |
think. It is wrong —wrong, Lizzie, to multi- '
ply engagements as you do. This young lieu
tenant ran all risk to obtain an hour's leave ;
of absence, that he might keep the appointment
with you.”
“ Oh, well, don't scold, papa. I feel sorry
myself, but I eau console him easily enough.—
Do you know I mean to marry Brecken
ridge I”
“Do you love him I" asked her father.—
“ Here’s something new.”
“As well as 1 know how,” said Lizzie; “to
tell the truth, father, I seem to have used up
my heart by little and little upon all the mul
titude of lovers I've endured ami now That I
St ate I.lti's!?.
am growing old--twenty to-morrow ’—should
; be glad to settle down in life, and be some
, body’s dutiful spouse. 1 don’t know how to
begin, and 1 am as ignorant as a country lass
! that never had an otter in her life. I haven't
I any heart. I’m tired of flirtations. Come, father,
1 let tisgo abroad.”
| His youths forgave Lizzie Lee for that day's
disappointment, in consideration of u smile;
but the seventh avoided her with silent digui
i ty. It was the otic for whose forgiveness she
cared more than for that of all the rest—it was '
Norval Breckenridge. If he hadn’t been an-
I gry she would have felt him in her power, and
soon have wearied of him afterward; but now >
his indifference was too tantalizing, she watch
ed jealously his attention to other ladies, her
pride was piqued, she grew angry, and—in
love. She urged still more strongly to go
abroad, and her father’s consent once obtained,
they departed the following week.
And too late Lizzie fimnd that what she was
flying in senrch of, she h«d left at home—con ,
tent, repose, which all the world could not fur
nish. Restlessly she roved from city to city,
viewing scenery, pictures, architecture, and lis
tening to mtlsic, all in vain. Visions of an
earnest, manly face which might be with her
now, of a serene, and happy home which might .
—alas! which might have been! would haunt
her everywhere.
While in this state of mind Lizzie met in
Paris an enthusiastic young Abbe, of the Bo
mish Church. Perceiving tlie heart-ache that,
caused Lizzie's restlessness, the youth warily
painted the peace and repose, the life of duty j
here and sure reward hereafter, which liis ,
church had to offer all who could renounce this -
world.
They journeyed on to Romo, and Mr. Lee
bore letters to several of the Abbe’s friends ; it
occurred to him afterward that this fact might
have some connection with succeeding events.
One day. all by chance it seemed, Lizzie en
countered a beautiful young nun, a Sister of
Charity accomplished and fascinating, like (yet
how unlike!) herself. The atmosphere of
peacefulness and holiness which surrounded I
Sister Agnes seemed, for the time, to quiet Liz- !
zie's restless heart: they met frequently; the
nun showed great kindness in procuring for i
her new acquaintance all opportunities for ob
serving the ritual of the church. At length, '
Lizzie olitained admission into her convent as
a student of music; and the holy, tranquil life
of the nuns, by its very contrast to aught she
had ever felt or desired, so fascinated our gay 1
young belle that Mr. Lee returned from a tour
in Russia to find his daughter a member of the
Romish Church, and resolved never again to I
leave the seclusion of her nnnnerv.
"She will forget this new love with the 1
rest," thought the indolent father, and revel
ing himself in the contemplation of lieoutv '
which had failed to satisfy Lizzie, he was only
glad of the new diversion she had found. The i
Al lie who had followed Mr. Lee to Rome, was
his unfailing companion and useful guide about i :
the Eternal City; and was, at the same time, '
more weary of lingering amid its wonders, and :
more at a loss in projecting a plan for some i
new tour beyond the limits of Italy. Weeks
multiplied to months, and months to years, and .
still tfie l.s’i s lingered at Rome.
About this time a stranger, attracted bv the '
loi-tle about its doors, entered one of the pub- 1
II • hospitals of Rome, into which they were 1 I
Inuring wounded and dying men; for there
had been an iasnrreel'on the previous week. , ;
and many soldiers had been killed or fearfully ' i
mangled. Ti c stranger was himself a soldier,
as hi- interest betrayed, no les- than the tin
dies-uniform which lie wore. Walking up and
down the wards, a pitnyg spectator of the tu
mult ami vheerlessness of the place, as this ,
young man took note* of the impatient agonv
of those sufferer- who waited for their turn in
the scanty supply of medical attendance, the
-till terror ot those who already were suffer
ing surgical operations, the groans of the neg
lected. the curses of such as felt their misery
increased by the carelessness of their hearers,
hi-attention was arrested by the approach of
two Sisters of Charity.
He had striven in vain to quiet the impa- !
t'a n< e or the apprehensions of those immedi
ately about him, fellow-soldiers as they were:
but v. lien these women came, wise only in their
kindness, strengthened only by their love, the
stranger saw'how at oner the magnetism of
their presence subdued the sufferers, until
prayers took the place of curses, and the sleep '
of exhaustion fell upon faces which had so late- 1
iy writhed with anguish.
“Why, Agatha, how you tremble!” said
Sister Agnes, suddenly. “ You mnst not be
overcome by your own feelings in the presence
of sutt'ermg. Come take heart! See that poor
creature," -lie said pointing to his parched lips. '
“bring him drink!”
And Agatha moved to obey, but the ernei 1
fix which she had clasped to her bosom drop
ped from her helpless hands, and she would have
fallen save for the stranger’s help.
“Am I dreaming ?” lie whispered. “ T.izzie
Lee!"
“ Hush, hnsh, for heaven's sake! No, it is '
not my name. I am Sister Agatha. Before
the stranger could say more she was hurried
away.
But Agatha’s dreams that evening were not '
such as hetitted one who on the morrow would
take her final vow to renounce the world ; she 1
looked at the Virgin's picture, and only thought i
liow human eyes hail looked so earnestly into
hers -he clasped the golden crucifix and wish
cd it were a human hand that could clasp back
her own.
The morrow came, on which Lizzie Lee was
to kneel before the altar, tu have her beautiful,
abundant hair cut away and her rich garments ■
removed ; and another spirit was about to be
buried from the world. And she was buried
but only from its “cares and vanities.” No
welcoming hands of nuns led Sister Agatha in
to the convent. Lizzie's disquietude was bu
ried away witho"t their assistance; for early
the next morning human eyes came to gaze as
earnestly as Hie pictured eyes of the Virgin
had ouee looked into hers, and she found a
hand which could clasp hers back as fondly
as once the young nun bad clasjaid her cruci
fix.
Lizzie Lee did not become a Sister of Chari- I
ty, but returned to Wilmington as Mrs. Breck- , >
I ridge.
A WOLF
; " The Cartersville, Ga., Ej-preu, says: Wei
i understand from a reliable source, that a wolf I
j has been seen on or near Maj. Willis Benham's
j plantation on Pettits Creek in Cass eoanty,
I and that Mr. Wm. Powell run something off;
I from bis calf lot a few nights ago, that he took I
!to boa wolf. He was awakened from his (
, slumber at a late hour of night, by the dis- ’
I tressing bleats of a calf, when, on running to |
’ the lot, he found the animal making rapid
strides to unlife its victim. It made its debut
with a dog after it, and was no sooner over- ,
taken than the dog retreated.
A toss. —boy belonging to Messrs. Turn - 1
lin, who arj engaged in the livery stable busi
ness in Carteitaxiiie. Ga., undertook to ford the i
Etowah river uzzr Col. Tumlin’s in a two-horse
buggy; the water near the bauk where be j

MACON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 3, 1858.
LATEST PARIS FASHIONS FOR BALL DRESSES.
Ihe full dress ball costirtiu s, for the spring
entertainments, are generally composed of ve
ry light nutterials, such usganz.es, tulles, crapes,
Ac. Iwo very full skirts, sometimes puff
ed all over, are supported by an under petti
coat of silk. On Others the first skirt is trim
med with a wide-botiillonne,studded w ith-mall
bows of pink ribbon; the second skirt is cov
ered with a tiounre ot rich lace. The most
striking feature iu the festivities of this past
winter lias been the display of magnificent jew
elry. It the dowagers of the old regime hoast
e<l of their family diamonds, the fair dames
who form th< court circle of the present day
far surpass them in the quantity and magnifi
cence of their gems. The toilettes are literal
ly glittering with precious stones; theporures
are not only rich from tho value of the jewels
which compose them, but are works of art by
the beauty and skill displayed in their mount
ings. In former days, jewels descended from
generation to generation unaltered ; now,
their settings vary with every change of fash
ion.
Walking dresses for the spring arc nil made 1
w itli high liodies, and are generally without
basques, the waist forming six points. Bran- I
denbourgs, tassels, fringes, lace, ami velvets i
are the decorations in vogue. For young per
sons, the following is a pretty trimming: the
decoration is a niche of ribbon, or a fringe
about three fingers wide, surmounted by two
or three rows of velvet placed round the’ skirt,
a little below the waist. Silk dresses are trim
med when made with two skirts, with fringes
or galloons, of the same color ns the robe, on
the upper skirt. \\ alking dresses are general
ly very much ornamented on skirts. Last
year the trimmings were almost invariably 1
placed en gnillet. or bands of velvet or 1
pas-ementerie arranged perpendicularly ; now,
they are more frequently placed round the
skirt. Ihe same color as the dress is pre
ferred. .Sometimes plain skirts are worn ; but
they are then made very full, and in exceed
ingly rich materials. One very deep flounce,
profusely trimmed with ruches'or bands of vel
vet, is also in favor.
fil’ElNfl B<»NNETfi, PARASOLS, AND WRAPPINGS.
The shape of the bonnets is decidedly the I
.tfrtro Sfmtrt style, coming very far forward
on the bead, and bent down towanls the fore
head ; the sides of the crown are profusely
trimmed, and the curtains arc much smaller
than those worn during the winter. Tulle
ami crape are the materials employed, often
mixed with velvet, or with fancy straw Straw
and taffetas also form a pretty mixture. A
capote may be fashioned of tulle puffed, sur
rounded with n bias piece of white silk and
three others ot plaid—the last ending in a flat
bow at the side. A white blonde is placed
around the edge, and flowers inside ; thestiings
are wide, and have a plaid bias piece sewed
around the edges.
J’arasols are small, and are composed of rich I
satin or silk woven expressly for the purpose, '
They are generally without fringes, liaving. in- I
stead, u tiounee, cut in large scallops or van ;
dykes. We have an immense variety ot spring 1
and summer zrra/i/i/ni/s ,• the close-fitting jack ;
et is -till worn, but the Burnousmanteh-t, sty]- i
e<! the Magician, is the greatest novelty. This 1
mantle is a large Burnous, without lining, trim
m< d witli ruches of silk, or velvet hands or gal
loons. The black .-ilk point, double or single. .
when trimmed u ith n deep lace tloim.•<■. forms

AX IMfEIUAI. BAI. COSTI ME.
A late letter from Paris -ays that “the fivo
rite festivity there, since F.'i-tcr, has been the
foal eottume. (fancy ball.l Enormous sums are
expended, by both ladies and gentlemen of'
fa-hion. on magnificent historical and pictorial
costumes. Theyk'r of this descrioii n lately
given by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, (’omit 1
Walewski. surp.-i -ed all othere in tlie brilliim 1
cy of the arrangements mol decoration-, and in
suniptumisne-s ot'the toilettes. The hall was,
opened at midnight ivitii a quadrille of pier
rots, pierrett'-s (clown and elownesse-,1 har- *
leqitilis. and punehinelloes. The deckings of
the pierrot- ami pierr -ttes are the especial de
light ot all the gamine of Paris in the pnblie
places, during the Carnival; but on this [occa
sion the coarse white muslin, and gay colored
stuils. were exchanged for ma-s}ve satins, rich
brocades, gold embroidery, and drizzling jew
els.
“ The Emperor and Empress were present;
his Majesty wearing a grey domino, and the
Empress a pink one at the commencement of a
brill, but before she retired she changed her
costume four times. One of the four dominoes
was a magnificent gold brocade. A lady of
the Court made her entrance into the saloons
as a marquise of the ancient regime, in a se
dan chair, preceded by a mnelern marquis as a
running footman. One of the most superb
costumes was that of a Peruvian Princess, the
hair being dressed in arcades and decked with
birds’ feathers. Another fair dame had her
face hidden by an immense bouqet of flowers
tastefully arranged to make it resemble the
globe of a lamp. A foreign Princess wore a
costume representing a game of dominoes.
The Persian embassador and suite appeared in
ancient Persian costumes, resplendent w ith di
amonds and other jewels of great value.'’
AN EXTENSIVE FARM
A correspondent of the Silver Creek Mirror
says that Col. Jacob Cnrnd. of Texas, is one
of the largest farmers in the I'nited States, [[e
owns 250,000 acres of land (nearly 400 square
miles) in this and adjoining counties. His
home plantation contains aho.-it KOO acres, near
ly all valuable bottom lands along the Guadn
loupe river. On this farm he has over 6<M>
acres in cultivation, on which he raises annu
ally about 800 bales of cotton worth at the
plantation from $75 to SIOO j>er bale, nnd 20,-
000 hushels ot corn worth about $1 50 per
bushel. He lias a foree of alsmt titty field
hands, and lie works about sixty mules and
horses, and fifteen yoke of oxen.
Col. Carrol hasonlris immense range of pas
ture lands, alanit one thousand horsesand mules,
worth $50.001); one thousand head ot cattle,
worth $7,000; six hundred hend of hogs, worth
$2,000; three hundred Spanish mares, worth
$15,000; fifty jennies, worth $2,000; fifteen
jacks, worth $9,000; and five stallions, worth
$2,500.
Col. Carrol’s jiroperty, in stock nnd negroes,
is worth at least $150,000; and the value of
bis landed estate will swell the amount to over
half a million of dollars. His annual income
from the sale ot stock amounts to from $5,000
to si 0,000; and from the sale of cotton to from
$15,000 to $20,000.
WARNING TO BOYS.
The poor creature Crockett, who is sentenc- i
ed to lie hung shortly for his participation in
the murder of old Mr. Landrum near Atlanta, i
for the sum of fifty-five cents, was brought to !
this unfortunate end by habits of idleness and
Judge Bull, in passing sentence
upwi Jiiin, conjured the young men present to ,
take warning. They cannot be too often warn
ed. Idleness is a erime! Ju the parable of the i
t<u talents this doctrine is clearly developed. I
It does not appear thqt the servant who buried ,
his talent was in the habit of committing .
crinks. and yet he is called “wicked.” Why?
Because he was laz> idle .-Athene Wateh-\
