THE DAILY TIMES. niCBTHOVEN. 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, COLUMBUS, GA., SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 12. L 875. 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. I ndrPMtd lij Machinery. 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. .Im 1,-Hun ( Mieh.)

Read, Reflect end Act. kl / \ 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. Drs. LOVE At WILLSON, solo proprietors in tho United States. Address, LOVK Ml WIMJvON, Room No. H, Powell Building, Atlanta, Ga. A liberal discount mado to the trade. 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.

Lovk & Wlllsov, Atlanta, (la:—Oentlk- 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. I cheerfully recommend It to all “shakers.” Respectfully, etc.. •I AM EH McCBABY. A ij.ania, Ga., August 7th, 1876. 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. N.
