The Perfect Man.
~”'.l‘he~perlect man is everjust and_ti'ne.- .
In all the many wiudings_of'_ !hi:.;life,.- '
The right from wrong iiiost:;E:ic1l.y he diviils-‘
How fair the sight. !-and yet lit‘.-‘ff very rare,
To see at man so far above the woi'.id..
As not its imperfeclioiis to imbibe.
Thou who hast injured either friend or foe,
By any unkind word or sl;'.iid’i'o%s thought, '
Amend thy course; and mark the perfect man.
He makes no wound in the reputation
Ofliiin ‘who his acknowledged friendship has;
lHis niind.o’erlool_<s the faults of other men
And is well employed in selfcoi'i'eclion.
The poor and sic!-1 his helping liandhave felt,
The widow destitute and oi-plian lone ‘
-‘Feel his kind bounty in the hour of need,
And in their praycrs the, perfect man is bless’d.
He knows his day: on earth are few and short,
A brieftinie given foi' preparation.
He hoiii';ls no wealth, he carries on no strife,
But everlcalnily waiting for the hour
When he shall bid this world adieu. he dies.
His friends awhile the griefmost‘poignant feel.
But; with his death a new resolve they make,
Ever to imitate the perfect man.
From the Knickerbocker.
The Cholera King-
BY II. \V. ELLSWORTH.
He cometli! it conqueror proud and strong,
At the head ofa mighty bend
Ofthe countless dead, as he passed along.
That be slow with his red right hand!
And over the mountain, or down the vale,
As his shadowy train sweeps on, ~_
There stealeth a lengthened note of wail
For the loved and early gone.
He cometli! the sparkling eye grows dim,
And heavily draws the breath
Of the treinbler who whispers low of Him
And his standard bearei'—Death!
He striketli the rich man down from power;
And wiisteth the student pale ;- _
Nor ’scapes him the maid in her latticed bower,
Nor the warrior aimed in mail.
He cometh 3 through ranks of steel clad men, .
'I‘o the heart oftlie warrior band-
Ye may count where his conquering step hath
been '
By the spear in each nerveless hand:
Wild shontetli be, where on the battle plain
By the dead are the living hid;
As he buildeth up from the focinen slain
His skeleton pyiainitl. ‘
There stealeth 'neath yon_dcr turret’: height
A lover with song and late .
Nor knowetli the lips of his lady bright A
Are pale, and her voice inuie--
For he dreaiiieth not. when no star is dim,
Nor cloud in the summer sky,
That she who from childhood loved him
Hath laid her down to die.
She watcheth !—a fond young mother dear—-
Wliila her heart beats high with pride.
How she best to the. good oflife may rear
The first born by her side ;
With a fervent prayer and a love kiss warm,
She liatli sunk to a dreamy rest,
Unconscious all of the death- cold form
That she claspetli to her breast.
Sail ho! for the ship that tireless flies,
VVhilethe mad waves leap around,
As shespreadetli lier wings for the native skies
Of the waiiilerei's hoineward hound--
Away through the tiackless waters blue,
Yet ere half her course is riiu.
F ruin the wasted ranks of her merry crew
There standeth only one.
All hushed is the city’s busy throng.
As it sleep; in the fold of death,
Like the desert o'er which has passed along
The pestilent Simooms bretiih:
All hushed! save the chill and stilling heart
Ofsoiiie trembling passer by.
As he looketli askaiice at the dead man's cart,
Where it wailetb the next to die.
The fire hath gone from the cottage hearth-—
The plough on the unturned plain
Stands still—wliile unreaped,totlie motherearth
Down droppeth the golden grain.
Of the living and loved that gathered there,
Each form to the dead liatli gone-—
Save the dog that howls to the midnight air
By the side of you cold white stone.
He cometh! he cometh! no human power
From his advent dread can flee; '
Nor knoweth one human heart. the hour
When the Tvrant his guest shall be;
Or whether at flush of rosy dawi.—-
Or at noon-tide’s fervent lieat—
Or at night. when with robes of darkness on
He treadeth with stealthy feet.
He cometli ! a conqueror proud and strong,
At the head ofa mighty band
Of the countless dead. as he passed along,
That he slew with his red riglithand!
And over the mountain, or down the vale.

Prussian, for a ‘voyage up the‘ Rhine, which
for centuries was not only the sole highway
of. central Europe, but the very centre of
European? civilization." No tra_velei" who
crosses the broad, Atlantic should return with’-
ont visiting this beautiful and romantic river,
and scanning its crumbling and decaying
fortresses and castles, which for centuries
have withstood the combined power not only
of the warring elements, but of many long
and bloody revolutions. F:oin the days of
Charlemagne to Napoleon Bo'nap'_arte this
stream has been the focus of most of the im-
portant civil. religions and political move-
meals, which have affected the destinies of
Europe and the world. Here it was that the
art. of printing was invented; here, too, on
the banks of its bounding waters the Reform-
ation bad, its birth, and among its cragg
mountains it was nursed to its maturity.-
Such are the truths which give character to
its streams, and then thcreure the “thousand
legends old" with their wild and wondrous
histories appertaining to each particular castle
and.tow.er, which throws the soft halo of be-
witching romance over the classic lounts of
broad and princely Germany. From Cologne
to Bonn the river banks are studded with
pretty little villages ‘‘ all of the olden time,”
but possessing no historical importance ivor-
iliy of our space. Bonn is one of the oldest
cities of the Rhine, with about 16,000 inhab.
itants. V It has a large university also with
about 800 students. This city was the birth-
place of Beethoven, where a monument is
now reared to his memory. The next town
of importance is Godesbui-g,a cbeei-ful little
village with a large ruined castle In view just
back. of the town. The castle was surren-
dered to the Blivarians in i593, and was re.
duced to its present state by them. There is
a legend, which has been rendered in verse
by Schiller, that sweetest of German poets,
and is no doubt familiar to most intelligent
readers. Across the stream, at this‘ point, is
_Konigswinter,a small town at the fool of the
Seven Mountains. This range averages
about 1900 feelaltitude. The Dracbenfels
is the most interesting, its summit being
crowned with ruins. On the top of this
mountain is also a good hotel, from which
you have a line view of the surrounding
peaks. Back on the Bonn side just above
is Rolandseck, and in the river the Isle of
Nonnenroorih, upon which is an ancient
nunnery, but which is now occupied as a
boarding-school. \Viih the ruins of Roland-
seck' is linked the thrilling tradition of
“ Roland's true love," and is one of the finest
points on the Rhine.
The next landing is Renragen, an ancient
Roman town of about 1700 inhabiiants. Near
this town is the mouth of the Ahr nndeits
romantic valley. Next comes Linz, a small
town, near by which are Linzerhansen and
the ruins of Okkenfcls. Next Sinzig, orig-
inally it Roman castle. There is a church
remarkable for its antiquities and an old
painting which commemorates the victory
gained by Constantine over Maxentius-
Then comes Brohl, where are extensive stone
quarries and a very singular volcanic ravine.
From this town you go up to the Lake and
Abby of Lunch and to the tomb of St. Gen-
ovefa. Castle Bheineck, which has been
rebuilt by and is the residence of Prof. Beth-.
manu Hollueg, next catches the vision. It
is a magnificent palace and splendidly deco-
rated, which with ihe kind hospitality of the
owner, well repays the tourist for his Sab-
bath day's journey up the rugged clifl's.—-
Then comes Hammerstein, a total ruin. It
was to this castle that Henry ll’ repaired
while escaping from the vengeance-of his
son in i105. The story was thus 0: the cas-
lie was ltheuresidence of a brave German
Baron, who on a stormy winter’: night. look-
ed from his chamber window upon the angry
river that roaicd and foamed below, and up-
onihe, drear and desolate landscape before
him—bnt he saw not the rushing stream, he
hem] not the raging waters; the cbecrless
fields and the bleak mountains were all? un-
heeded by him,and neither the bowling of
the wind no_r the crash of the thunder which
shook the very heavens to its centre and re-
verberated from mountain-top to valley,
seemed audible to his ears. He dwelt on
other times--the days of youth and valor.
and as his old heartbeat young again, he
sighed that, though rich in the love of two
beautiful daughters, who bloomed from the
parent stem like twin ‘roses of unwanted
fragrance, and whom, like Jeptlie, he loved
"passing well, be had no sonto lengthen out
the line of his ancient family. While thus
he mused, the elementary stgife abroad in.-

the church are objects worthy of ,,oi;ce._._'.
Friedrickstein follows, which is the ruin of
an enormous castle begun inthe 17tltncentn-
ry, but never completed. A little distance
above on the same sidehof the river stands
the modern town of Newwied, founded in
1733 by Count Erederick William, who
opened it as an asylum for the persecuted of
all creeds, who are to this day tolerated,
and has given it a ‘degree of prosperity for
more than a hundred years unparalleled in
the history of all the commercial cities of
the Rhine. Newwied possesses manyato
tractions to the traveller, the principal of
which consists in the remains of Roman an.
tiquities discovered in its vicinity and belie.
vcd to be the remains of the ancient city of
Victoria. Specially, it affords a practical
illustration of the beneficient effects of reli-
gious tolerationf and liberty. Crossing the
river we find Weissentburn, of historical
note as the spot where the French crossed
the Rhine 1797, upon a rising ground adj...
cent rises the monument-of Gen. Hocke. It
is inscribed to his-memory by the army of
the Sambre and the Meuse, but his history
belongs to the pages of French history. He
was buried at Coblenz. A little farther up,
on 3 Sleep acclivity, washed by the waters
of the Sayn, and overlooking the mighty
‘Rhine stand the decayed and shattered towers
of the once princely castle of Sayn. These
ruins are‘ believed to date from the 10th cen-
tury, are supposed to have been built by
the “Count of Sayn” renowned for his feats
of arms against the Saracens.
Passing rapidly ‘by the place above, at the
junction of the _ river Mosel with the
Rhine, opens to view the beautiful and popu-
lous city of Coblenz, one of the most ancient
on the river. At the‘ time of the invasion
of Drusus Germanicus, (B. C. 13) a castle
was built there by that. conqueror, which in
process of time became the centre of the
great city which stood on both banks of the
Rhine. Little is known of its history for
lhrec hundred years after its founding. The
first historian who alludes to it is Marcellinus
in 360. Afterwards it is noticed after the
f"all"of the western empire, :1 period of 500
years. Here the rival grand-children of
Charlemagne. met to prepare the treaty of
Verdan, by which the empire was subse-
quently partitioned among them, A. D. 840.
Its subsequent liistory is soon told ; in the
course of the thirty years war, it repeatedly
changed masters--the Spaniards, the Swedes.
the French, the lmperalisis and the Protestant
party being successively its conquerors.-
Tliere ate very many edifices still maintain-
ing their grandrur and“ beauty. In 1688, it
was bombarded by Louis XIV, and almost
reduced to ruins. In 1794 it capitulated to
the Sans-Culoiics, when the city was annex-
ed to the territory of the republic, but it be.

the “Gibraltar of Germany.” It is built up-
