ORIGIN OF THK MOONLIGHT SONATA.
Globe-Democrat.}
“It is beautiful null terrible,"
(Beethoven’s musky says F
thoughtfully, “as his own nature.
It Is tin incantation—a poem, a spirit
ual philosophy. Did I ever tell you
how or why ho composed the ‘Moon
light Sonata?, ’’
"Now,” replies S . giving me a
triumphant glance.
“It happened at Bonn, Of course
you know that Bonn was ids native
place. He was born in a house on
tile Bheingasse; but when l llrst knew
him, he was lodging iu the upper
part of n little mean shop near lhe
liomerpkttz. He was wretchedly
poor just then ; so poor t hut he never
went out for a walk except at night,
on account of the poverty of hisap
peurauee. However, he had a piano,
pens, paper, ink and a few books,
and from these he coutrived to ex
tract some little happiness, despite
his privations. At this time, you
know he had not the misfortune to
be deaf. He could at least enjoy tho
harmony of ids own compositions.
One winter’s evening, l called upon
him, for 1 wanted him to take a walk,
and afterward to sup with me. I
found him sitting by tho window iu
the moonlight, without lire or candle,
his head buried iu his hands and his
whole frame shivering with cold, for
it was freezing bitterly. 1 roused
him, persuaded him to accompany
me, urged him to shake oft his de
spondency. Hi' went, hut he was
very gloomy and hopeless that night,
and refused to lie comforted. 'I hate
life and tho world,' lie said passion
ately ; ‘1 hate myself! No one under
stands or cares f>r me. 1 have
genius, and 1 am treated as an out
cast. I have heart, and none to love.
I wish it were all over, and forever.
I wish 1 were lying at the bottom or
the river yonder. 1 sometimes lind
it difficult to resist the temptation.’
And lie pointed to the lihiue, looking
cold and bright iu the moonlight. 1
made no reply, for it was useless to
argue with Beethoven, so I allowed
him to go on in the same strain,which
lie did nor paused till we wore return
ing through the town, when ho sub
sided into n sullen silence. 1 did not
care to Interrupt him. Passing
through some dark, narrow streets
within the Coblentz gate, he paused
sinldenlv. 'Hush!' he said. 'What
sound is that?’ I listened, and heard
the feeble toucs of what was evident
ly n very old piano, proceeding from
some place close at. hand. The per
former was playing a plaintive move
ment in triple time, and, despite the
worthlessness of the instrument, con
trived to impart to it. considerable
tenderness of expression. Beethoven
looked at me with sparkling eyes,
it is from my symphony in F,’ he,
said eagerly. ‘This is tho house.
Hark! how well it, is played!’ It was
a little, mean dwelling, with a light
shining through the chink of the
shutters. We paused outside and
listened. The player went on, and
the two following movements were
executed with the same fidelity —the
same expression. In the middle of
the linal there was a sudden break a
momentary silence- then the low
sounds of sobbing. 'I cannot play
any more to-night, Friedrich.' ‘Why
not, my sister?’ asked her companion,
gentiv. 'J - -.it -ely know why, unless
tliut it is s i beautiful, and that it
seems so utterly beyond my power to
do justice to its pei feci ion. Oh, what
would I not give to go to-night to Co
logne. There is a > meert given at
the Kauthans, and ail kinds of beau
tiful music to be performed. It must
he so nice to go to a concert. ‘All,
my sister,’ said the mail, sighing,
‘none but the rich can afford such
happiness. Ii is useless to create re
grets for ourselves where there can
be no remedy. \\ can scarcely pay
our rent now, so why dare even think
of that which is unattainable?’ ‘You
are right., Friedrich,' was her reply;
‘and yet sometimes, when I am play
ing, I wish that for once in my life, 1
might hear some really good music
and tine performance. But it is of
no use of no use.’ There was some
thing very touching in tire tone of
those last words, and in the manner
of their repetition. Beethoven look
ed at me. ‘Let us go in', hesuld, hur
riedly. ‘Uo in !’ I exclaimed. ‘How
can we go in? What can we go in for?’
‘I will play to her,’ he said, in the
same excited tpiie. ‘Here is feeling,
genius, understanding. T will play'
to her and she. will appreciate it.’
And before I could prevent him his
hand was upon the door. It was
only latched, and instantly gave
way; so I followed him through
the dark passage to a half-opened
door at the right of the entrance
which lie pushed open and entered.
It was a bare, comfortless apartment,
with a small stove at one end, and
scanty furniture. A pale young man
was sitting by the table, making
shoes, and near him, leaning sorrow
fully iijsm an old-fashioned harpsi
chord, sat a young girl, with a profu
sion of light iiair failing over her
bent face. Both were cleanly but
very poorly dressed, and both started
and turned toward us as we entered.
‘Pardon me,’ said Beethoven, look
ing somewhat embarrassed. ‘Par
don me—but—but I heard music and
I was tempted to enter. lam a mu
sician.’ The girl blushed and the
young man looked grave somewhat
annoyed. ‘I I also overheard some
thing of what you said,’ continued
my friend. ‘You wish to Itear —that,
is, you would like that is, shall I
play for you?’ There was something
so odd, so whimsical, so brusque in
the whole affair, arid something so
pleasant and eccentric in the very
manner of the speaker, that the ice
seemed broken i.i i mom nt. and all
smiled involuntarily. ‘Thank you,’
said tho young shoemaker; ‘but our
harpsichord is wretched and we have
no music.’ ‘No music,’ echoed my
friend. ’How then does tho fraulein
—He paused and colored up, for
tile giri looked round full at him,
and in the dim, melancholy gaze of
those clouded eyes he saw that she
was blind. ‘I—I entreat your par
don,’ he stammered; ’hut I had
not perceived before. Then you
play from ear? ‘Entirely.’ And
where do you hear music, since you
frequent no concerts?’ ‘I used to
hear a lady practicing near ns, when
we lived at Bruhl, two years ago.
During the summer evenings her win
dows were generally open, and I
walked to and fro outside to listen
toher.’ And have you never hoard
no music?’ ‘None—excepting street
music.’ She seemed shy, so Beetho
ven said no more, but seated himself
quietly at the piano and began to
play. ’ He had no sooner struck the
first chord than I knew what would
follow-how grand he would be t hat
night, and I was not mistaken. Nev
er, never during all the years I knew
him, did I hear him play as he then
played to that blind girl and her
brother. Never heard I such fire,

such passionate tenderness, such ln
tinite gradations of melody and mod
ulation. He was inspired ; and from
the instant that his lingers began to
wander along the keys, the very tones
of the instrument seemed to grow
sweeter and more equal. Breathless
and entranced, we sat listening. The
brother and sister were silent with
wonder tintl rapture. The former
laid aside his work; the latter, with
her hand pressed slightly across her
breast, crouehod down near the end
iof the harpsichord, as if fearful lest
even the heating of her heart should
break the How of those magical,
sweet sounds. It was as If wo were
all bound in a strange dream,
and only feared to wake.
Suddenly the tlame of the single;
candle wavered, sunk, Dickered, and
went out. Beethoven paused, and I
threw open the shutters, admitting a ,
flash of brilliant moonlight. The i
room was almost as light as before,
and the illumination fell strongest
on tlio piano and the player. But
tho chain of his ideas seem to be
broken by the accident. His head
drooped upon his breast; his hands
rested upon Ills knees; he seemed ab
sorbed in meditation. It was thus
for some time. At length the young i
shoemaker rose, and, approaching
him eagerly,yet reverently, ’Wonder
ful man,’ lie said, in a low tone, ‘who
and what are you?’ Beethoven lifted
his head and looked up at him va
cant ly, as if unconscious of t he mean
ing of his words. He repeated the
question. The composer smiled, as
he only could smile, benevolently,
indulgently, kindly. ‘Listen,’ lie
4id, and playing the opening bars of
tho symphony in F. A cry of do- j
light and recognition burst from the
lips of both, and, exclaiming, ‘ I’lten
you are Beethoven!’ they covered his
hands with tears and kisses. He.
rose to go, but we hold him back,
with entreaties, ‘l’lay to us once
more only once more.’ He suffered
himself to bo led back to the instru
ment. The moon shone bright
ly in through the eurtainless
window, and lit up his
glorious rugged head and massive
figure. I will improvise a sonata to
the moonlight, said he, half playful
ly. He looked up thoughtfully for a
few moments t<> the sky and the stars
then his hands dropped upon tho
keys, and he began playing a low,
sad and infinitely lovely movement,
which crept gently over the instru
ment with a sweet, and level beauty,
like the calm flow of moonlight, over
the dark earth. This delicious open
ing was followed by a wild, elfin, ca
pricious passage in triple time -a sort
of grotesque interlude, like a dance
of sprites upon tho midnight sward.
Then came a swift aijUato finale
a breathless, hurrying, trembling
movement, descriptive of flight, and
uncertainty, and vague, impulsive
terror, which carried us away upon
its rushing wings, and left us at
tho last, all emotion and wonder.
‘Farewell to you,’ said Beethoven,
abruptly pushing back his chair and
turning toward tho door; ‘farewell to
you.’ ‘Y’ou will come again?’ they
asked in one breath. Ho paused, and
looked compassionately, almost ten
derly, at tho face of the blind girl.
‘Yes, yes,’ said lie hurriedly, ‘I will
come again, and give tlit- fraulein
some lessons. Farewell; 1 will come
soon again.’ They followed us in si
lence more eloquent and words, and
stood at their door till we were out of
sight and hearing. ‘Let as make
haste back,’ said Beethoven, urging
me on a rapid pace. ‘Lot as make
haste, that I may write out that son
ata while i can yet remember it.”
We did so, and he sat over it till long
past, daydawn. And lids was the ori
gin of that Moonlight Sonata,’ with
which weare all so fondly acquainted.

On Monday night Mr. A. D. Oornoll,
a miller employed at tho /Etna Mills,
met with a severe accident. At
about midnight some gearing in the
extreme peak of the mill began to
creak, and Mr. Cornell wont up to oil
it., it was in a low part of the room,
well under tho oaves, aud in applying
tho oil, lie was obliged to reach over
the shaft. While he was stooping, a
key on the shaft caught in the breast
of his shirt, and by tho time lie
had finished his work hud taken up
all the. slack, and held him down and
was drawing him still tighter. He
was thrown over the shaft, his light
went out, and then in the dark he
coolly braced himself, and lot the
shaft slowly tear off his clothing by
strips; the undressing operation was
not delicately performed. It would
not do for him to struggle much, as
on both sides was gearing within a
few inches of him that seemed wait
ing to draw him into its embrace.
Gradually his clothes parted compa
ny with him, and at last he felt that
he was no longer in the toils. Slowly
he drew himself hack and started to
grope ids way down the stairs, for
he knew that cries for help would not
ho heard below. On hands and
knees lie made his way along until
he reached the head of the stairs, and
] then lie staggered to his feet and got,
I down to the ground lloor, and appear
ed to his fellow workmen pale and
trembling, clad in only a shirt collar
j and the waistband of his pantaloons.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect end Act.

/ \
If one gram of Vaccine Virus, takwu from the
cow's udder and kept dry for years, then mois
tened, and the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
iu it and drawu gently on the arm, so a* not to
draw the blood, will so impregnuto and change
the entire system as to preveut the party vac
ciliated from taking tlie most loathsome dis
cuses (small pox) lor an entire again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into * healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not tho
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy tho poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to iuhabit malarial district* with
impunity?
We claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, and applied it, and proved
it in our Anti-malarial or Kuchymial Belt—and
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chilla and Fever, Billions or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, and tho. it will cure all tho above dis
eases, except tho worst eases of Billloua and Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, us it correct* tho humors of tbr oody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling it to per orui ItH various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria iu
the. b ust.
It has been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained troiu the proprietors In
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta. Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cute or the money refunded.
N. B.—None genuine without the trade mark
is stamped upon them.

Caution.—This Belt or Pad, like ail articles of
merit, is being imitated by parties who ary try
ing to put up u worthless article, as there is not
a living person, besides ourselves, that knows
tho ingredients in i(. We are the patentees, and
have our Belt protected by a Trade Mark.
Sure Cure.—lu another column will be found
two remarkable certificates about the efficacy of
Drs. Willson & Love's Malarial Belts. The diffi
culty iu tho way of using these belts is that they
are so simple that few can believe that there is
any virtue in them. When a patient is told to
UNO ouo ho is very much like Naaman when told
that, to cure his leprosy, he had only to bathe in
the river Jordan. Hon. Johu E. Ward says that
during his Htay in Chiua, an Minister, these belts
wi re used with great .success as preventives of
cholera. We know a case where a lady had been
suffering with chills for more than a year, aud
was finally induced to adopt one of these belts.
She has not had a return of tho chills since, and
she is fully persuaded that it is owing to the belt.
Dr. Willson's terms are very fair—no cure, no
pay.
#4”Read the following certificates:
Atlanta, Ga., Juno 5, 1876.
Messrs. Love k Willson: Gentlemen—ln Apri
last 1 was taken sick with regular Fever aud
Ague, having it every alternate day. Alter it had
run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Anti-nmlarial belts; so 1 discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, us
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite and clear skin; and in Aiture, if I should ever
have a Chill or Ague,l would want one of your Pads,
und no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
h>> unfortunate us to have Chills and Fever may
be fortunate enough to get ouo of your Belts,
1 am, respectfully, etc.,
W. J. Wilson.
Atlanta, Ga., June 3, 1876,
Dus. Love k Willson:
On the first day of December last I was taken
with Chills und Fever in Thomasville, Southwes
tern Ga., and was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days at a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution that my physician pronoun
ced me to bo iu the first stages of consumption,
when I accidentally met up with Drs. Love & Will
son's Anti-malarial Belt, which has entirely cured
me. 1 have had but one chill since, and that was
the first day after putting it on. lam now iu as
good health us I ever wbh in my lilo, and think
this Belt a Uwd-send to the afflicted.
J. M. Mathews.
Cannon House, Atlanta, Ga., June 4,1876.
Some nine years ago I contracted malaria iu
Savannah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at
times, ever since, until 1 met up with Drs. Love At
Willson’s Anti-malarial Belt some three months
ago. I have worn it continually, and have had no
chill since, aud find my general health, which
has been poor, innch improved. 1 would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.
It. A. Wallace.
Macon, Ga., June 4, 1876.
Friend Hodgson: I received your letter of the
26th ult., on yesterday, I have been off on a fish
ing excursion and just returned.
The people of this town don’t chill worth a cent
yet. 1 have sold two of the pads, and that 1 did
the very hour I first received them, one to one of
our conductors, ami to Mr. Vaughn, a Clerk in
the office. They both say that they tried Quinine
and other remedies, and that they failed till they
put on the pad; since then they have had no more
Chills or Fever, and they recommend them to ev
erybody. * * * * * Alex. Mathews,

MtN I have been u sufferer froru chills aud fever
for (19) nineteen years, and have used all of the
popular remedied, but only had temporary relief
until uhoul three mouths since, I was induced, by
your agent. Captain W. K. White, to wear one of
your “Auti-Marial Belts.” I have not had a chill
since putting it on. It has enabled me to look
alter my farming interest more closely, and ex*
yose myself to rain and sunshine more than for
nineteen years. It lias been worth to me, iu
feelings and absolute results, not less than five
hundred dollars.

Dhm. Lovk .V Wixxhon:—Dear Hlrs—l have been
having chills, caused from living in a malarious
district, for seven years. During that time 1
have taken Miner* of Quinine, with which I have
usually checked them for a while, but they have
invariably returned as soon as 1 would leave off
the use of the medicine. Having taken Arse,
nie and Htrlchniue, aud nearly every chill
remedy I ever heard of. I procured, a month
since, one of your “Anti-Malarial Belts,” which I
have worn, and during this time I have had only
one chill, which was brought on by being exposed
to night air and getting wet. It has done me
more good than all the internal remedies put to
gether which I have taken in the past seven years.
I am very gratefully aud respectfully yours,
WILLIAM OKKNBHAW, Dentist.
