The Phantom Wife.

the arch which separated the fil‘St rooms
of the suite, they saw Pennou, 8W3"
graceful, and joyous, appearing better
than ever in his life before, as he replied
to the greetings constantly poured in upon
him. And there by his side stood the
phantom wife, a sligh fair creature—the
living reality of her portrait, only as much
more beautiful, as the cunning flesh and
blood workmanship of nature must sur-
pass all art.

.. n is Beatrice herself I” stammel'ed
Mazziui, turning pale.

At that moment her eyes rested “P0“
him. With a cry of joy, forgetful of cold
decorum, she sprang and threw herself III-
to his arms. “Oh, my dear friend, my
dear cousin, I am alive—I am savcdl
and so glad to greet you,” she murmured.

“I cannot comprehend It,” muttered
Mazzini ; “ I saw you drowned.”

H No, no ; not drowned ; I was washed
ashore insensible. The wreckers picked
me up and restored me to life ; but they
kept me concealed on account of the rich
jewelry which I wore on my person, and
'of which they robbed me : I told them
to take it freely, joyfully, if they would
let me go to you ; but they were _ufrald
you would compel them to restore it, and
they would not release me until after you
had started for your home.”

“ Come into this recess for a moment,
my friends—the company must excuse us
for a brief interval,until it is all explain-
ed,” said I’cnnon ; and the four withdrew
into a quiet corner.

“ I had great difficulty in getting the
means of coming on,” continued Beatrice,
smiles and tears upon her heavenly face.
“ I wrote to my cousin here but my letter
did not reach him, and, after waiting four
weeks for an answer, I begged of a friend-
ly family the money to pursue my journey
and arrived safely in this city only four
days ago. I found Pennou’s name in the
directory, sought him out surprised him,
amazed him, convinced him of my identi-
ty, and married him [blushing] the same
day.

“ But this in no manner accounts for
your presence here several weeks ago,”
said Throekumrlon, stupidly.

“ I must have been mad,” whispered
Pennon : “ I realize it now. But, if so
the shock of her real coming restored the
reason which the anguish of her loss over-
throw. 1 am sane enough now,” looking
at his wife with eyes of calm immeasura-
ble fondness. “I am sure enough of this
Beatrice,” clasping the hand which sought
his.

“ But the singing i” queried Throck-
morton.

“ I cannot explain it with distinctuess,”
replied I’ennon. “I remember, however
that my phantom wife sang for me, talk-
ed with me, laughed and played with me
like any human creature ; I believe now,
since I think it all over, that I did the
singing myself, and responded to my own
conversation. It is not strange that the
songs which Beatrice used to sing should
have so entered into my memory and soul
that in the singular condition I was in, I
should be able to produce them—perhaps
even, to counterfeit her voice.”

“ Then, all I have to say,” remarked
Throckmorton, dryly, “is that you are
the most skillful counterfeiter of whom we
have any account. If you could forge
such notes as those, you are scarcely to
be called to an account for it. They
would have been indorsed as genuine at
the bank of heaven itself.”

“ 1n the language of you Americans,
it’s all right now,” laughed Mazzini ; “ so
let us all be merry as marriage bells.”

“We shall have a good appetite for the
Wedding feast,” observed the material
’.l‘hroclmmrton; “for we were detained
on the river, and have had nothing to eat
since breakfast. I can imagine myself,
now, drinking, in a. glass of that old Ma-
dicra, I’ennon, the health of the Phantom
Wife.”

DEATH OF E. '1‘. STERLING.
A Sermon Prcaclwd at St. Paul’s Church,
Cleveland, Sunday Evening, Aug. 14,
1859, by REV. Dr. CLAXTON, Rector of
said Paris/1..
Never have I been Called my friends,
to so painful a duty as that which is now
before me. Never have I known—God
grant I may never again know—such a
struggle of mind and of soul, as that
through which I have passed since on last
Sunday morning it was told me, “ E. T.
. S'rnmnxc is dead.” Dead i )an it be ?
M y friend, my counsellor, my brother 1—
Ile whose kindness I had so often preved;
whose nuselfishness I had seen so abund-
antly manifested ; whose generosity I
had so largely experienced ; whose sym-
pathizing tenderness had soothed my
hours of deep personal affliction ; whose
hand was the first of all the members of
this parish to give me the warm grasp of
greeting, in my then distant home on the
banks of the Ohio, and afterwards, when
I came to seek a home amongst you ; he,
with whom I had spent the most pleasant
hours of social intercourse that I ever en~
joycd ; he whose business tact and far-
reaching sagacity had made him an in-
valuable co-worker with me in the Vest-
r‘, of this Church, in the Convention of
this Diocese, in t to trusteeship of Ken-
yon College (an institution whose pres-
ent prosperity is largely owing to his
faithful disinterested labor in directing
its administration) nc whom his fellow-
citizcns (by whom he was well known)
had admired, and honored and trusted ;
ho whose presence in any circle was wont
to add to the satisfaction of all with
whom he mingled ; he whose name I had
so often mentioned in places near and far
of, as one who was a treasure to me as a
pastor—he is dead l
:5: >1: :1: >k ' * *
That our thoughts may take a more profit-
nbl: shape, let me seek to link them witha
yult—‘Fugc of God’s own Word. Genesis iv. 9,
If} :
“ And the Lord said unto Cain, Where is Abel, thy
ltljrllllrlili-r: And he said I know not, am I my brother’s

“ And He said, What hast than done? the voice of
thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground.”
It is a fearful thought that the first human
death was by \iolcncc,a death by murder,and

- that by a brother’s hand.
But I cannot dwell on this thought. , Yet
does one ask me whether I do not ovorstep the
bounds of propriety—whether I do not trench
m: the prerogatives of civil tribunals when I
ow-n infer concerning our departed brother
that his was a death of violence. inflicted by
unothcr's hand? I do not accuse any man

He was a warden

tual attendant an all the services of the Sanc-
tuary. His hand was over open to the cause
of Christ, and to the relief of His poor.

I found him just what the venerable Bishop
of this Diocese, who had known him for t‘weu-
ty seven years described him to be—“ a Jr: st
perfectly confidential, and large hearted
energetic mun—as staunch a friend as ever

was.” A man. wrote the Bishop, “ wihose
mind is one of great influence.” And on Fri-
day last I received from this eminent Christian
minister a lament from ich I must read a
few words; I have no heart to write—but to
be dumb; except to say ‘It is the Lord in

reference to this most awful death of our poor
friend. What a blow to you as his pastor J—
For nearly twenty-seven years has his house
been my kind and affectionate bome,ne.ver
anything but the most generous and affection-
ate hospitality did I receive from bun, and
never did I see any thing in him ineonsrstent
with his profession as a Christain.” I need
say no more in his praise. Many of you knew
him well ; if any knew him better than myself
he knew more of the nobleucss of his nature.
Yet this is the man whose name has for aweek
past been in every month ; whose sad, sad end
we can never cease to deplore.

More than two years ago as his pastor, I
could not but see and lament the beginning

of a change in the aspect of his christian char-
acter. Business troubles annoyed him and
called him often from his home. Ifeared that
he wasforming new and injurious associations.
Soon his attendance at the Communion table
became irregular, and erc long it ceased. At
last the fearful truth was made too apparent
that there were tempters about his steps, lur-
ing him to his ruin. I shall not recite what
took place in thereneatcd interviews between
the pastor and this his crring brother. He

ever took kindly my admonitions and my
counsels. He ingenuously, and with self-
loathing, acknowledged his faults. Ilc wep t
he prayed, be resolved, he struggled, he prom-
ised,bc tried ; but the arch-tempter had many
willing helpers, watching, laying snares for
the destruction of body and of soul.

Who were the men who ought to have been

this our brother’s keeper?

God only knows how far he was reponsible;
God only knows whether bya miracle of grace
in the last hours, after the fatal injury was
received. when, perhaps seemingly uncoucious
he so sought God’s mercy in Christ—so believ-
ed—and the work of God’s Spirit was so
wrought as to rescue his precious soul. That
soul is now in the hands of the Judge of all
the earth, who will surely "‘ do right.” Hap-
y is it that man is not the finaljudge of fol-
low mortal. But here I arrulgu as guilty of
his death every man who knowing his weak-
ness partook with him in that most debasing
of vices, in which only when reason was de-
throned by alcoholic drinks he could stoop to
indulge! These men—druggists, saloon keep-
ers—who knowing the first glass Would open
the flood-gates of evil, supplied him with the
maddening poison, must answer to God when
He maketh inquisitiou for blood ; and woe to
them if they dare say with the first murderer,
“ Am I my brother’s keeper?”

Those men who masking themselves as
friends, lure their victims into their lurking
dens, and when they have destroyed for the
time all self-control, plunder them of that
which belongs to their families, it may be
their families it may be their creditors of their
employers ; those men must meet-the investi-
gations of an Omniscieut, inflexible Judge,
who has power to cast soul and body into hell.
There will they find what is the guilt of' him
who,-not his brother’s keeper, has been his

brother’s destroyer. There they will find what

is God’s estimate of conduct like that which

the past. week’s investigations have disclosed;

what the decision of Ilcnveu’s Supreme Court

will be as to the man who, professing friend-

ship,could take to his own room a companion

who. he knew, lost his self control as quickly

as he partook of the first intoxicating glass ;

who made of that room what the just verdict

of society is unanimous-execration calls a hell;

who, with a malignity that one might have

looked for in the realm where the devil—the

first murderer—rules, plied his companion

with the draught of moral death; who won

'f'rom him (so the world describes this trade of

robbery) all the money in his pesscssion ; and

who (if his own tale be true) opened his door

led forth his victim ; then incapable of stand-

ing uuaided—a.nd,as though he would ensure

his injuryif not his deatb,extinguishcd the

light and left him in darkness on the stairs

to grape and to stumble, and to plunge head-

long to destruction?

To each‘ one of us, my hearers, the Provi-

dence of God in this calamity has a voice.

lt speaks to each of us of the sin of drunk

enness. There is not a word in this sacred
book, from first to last of the disease of drun-
kenness. I do not say it is never a disease,
not ever to be treated as «disease ; but where
a man has such use of his mental and moral

faculties as enables him to know right from
wrong, he cannot excuse himself before God,
if, whatever his appetite or propensity, he
yields 'to the temptation. God classes, the
druukard with the murderer. He says that
for such there is no part in the kingdom of
Christ or of God. Not that it is an unpar-
donuble sin ; but that it is like any other sin
of the flesh, and one which the Divine justice
cannot let go unpuuisbed. The current cou-
versation of society, the common language of
the press deals altogether to lightly with this
offence affainst God and against man. Even
Christian men and women are to ready to make
ajest of the drunkard and his habits. a fault
which may well remind us of the Divine de-
claration—~" Fools make a mock of sin .”

Of the other vice into which our friend fell
I can scarcely bring myself to speak at all,—
Drunkeuness drugs a man down to a level
With the brute. Gambling, persevered in de-
grades him to the bascness of'a fiend. It was
only by destroying his moral sense through
one intoxicating cup that he could be made to
stoop to such degradation. The es sential na-
ture of gambling is seen the revelation that
has been ever partially made in the investi-
gallons the past week. It is worse than theft;
worse than highway robbery; worse than a
hundred other crimes for which the law sends
culprits to the Penitentiary. So even the im-
perfect legislation of most well ordered com-
munities deals with it. Why, theu,lctme ask
has it been tolerated in this city? Why has
not public senliment demanded the enforce-
ment of existing laws? Why have not those
in authority felt themselves under continual
pressure of public opinion insisting that the
laws, both as to this vice and as to the traffic
in poisonous drinks. should be vigorously ex-
ecuted? Have any of us said “ It i- not my
business ‘2” Raw any said, “ IfI do not drink
and gamble, I have nothing to do with others
who may thus offend ‘2”

But where is Sterling, our brother? Dare
I, dare you, say, “ 1 am not my brother's
keeper?” Nay. “We are verily guilty con-
cerning our brother.” Every one of us
ought to have been “ his keeper,” his guardian
his true, watchful friend?

There are other men in like peril at this
hour I Other brethren fathers, sons, citizens,
are in danger of being plundered degraded,
ruined—it may be murdered, through the al-
luremcnts of these destroyers. Men and
breth rcn—wbefore ch,I charge you save them.
Let the thunders of public indignation expel
from our city all who would continue to ply
this trade of death amongst us! Let the
voice of our brother’s blond be heard ; if' not
crying for protection, moral protection, legal '
protection—for our own sons, for your bug.
bands, Christian wives—for your fathers,
young men—for all who are lured into the
society of those vampires who would plunder
and destroy them.

'The day before this deed was done—eight
days agowsllting at my own table with the
venerable Bishop of Kentucky, I was giving
vent to my feelings of strong dctestation of
everything that bad the rcmotcst resemblance,
to gambling—and even the experienced Bish-
op seemed to think me in danger of taking an
extreme view. The next morning be under.-
stood why I spoke, and felt as I did. ' ‘ ‘

A Countryman lately arrived In Cin-

he desired to marry. As she was only seven-
teen, some difficulty concerning the ceremony
arose, which a $20 bill would have settled,
but the bumpkiu thought the price to “ steep”
and deferred the ceremony. The girl cried
and wished to stand half the money herself,
rather than miss: a union, and a bystander
kindly offered to pay the whole if she would
take him and let the other man go. But the
avaricious lover objected to such an arrange~
ment and drew away the weeping damsel to
search for a cheaper opportunity to get unl-

strcct.ou the morning of the 9th inst,our
most valuable books and papers were exposed
for 36 hours in one of Stearns A: Marvin’s

We say fire proof, not because they are so

sioned by steam.
Our store was five stories above ground ,
and two stories below, occupied from collar
to gal-rel. The intensity of the heat can be
attested to by any fireman who witnessed it.
No furnace can be contrived by the inge-

A compound remedy, in which we hag- .
bored to produce the most effectual alteiiitiiio
that can be made: It is a'conccntrated extract
of Para Sarsapanlla, so combined with other
substances of still greater alterative power as
to adord an effective antidote for the diseases
Sarsaparilla is reputed to euro. 11; is believed
that such a remedy is wanted by those who
suffer from Strumous complaints, and that one
which will accomplish their cure must prove
of Immense service to this large class of our
afflicted fellow-citizens. IIoW completely this
compound will do it has been proveu by exper~
meat on many of the worst cases to be found.
of the following complaints:—

SCROFULA AND Scnorutoos Commune I

on Sr. ANTnoxy's Fran, and indeed the whole
‘class of complaints arising from IMPURITY OP
run BLOOD. I
This compound will be found 8 great pro-
motor of health, when taken in the spring, to
expel the foul humors which fmter in the
blood at that season of the year. By the time-
ly expulsion of them many rankling disorders
are nipped in the bud. Multitudes can. by
the aid of this remedy, spare themse, Ives from
the endurance of foul eruptions and ulcerous
sores, through which the system will strive ‘0
ml itself of corruptions, if not assisted to do
tlus through the natural channels of the body
by'an alterativc medicine. Cleanse out the
Vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities
bursting through the skin in pimplw. eruptions,
or sores; cleanse it when you find it is ob-
structed and sluggish in the veins; cleanse it
whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell
you when. Even where no particular disorder
is felt, people enjoy better health, and live
longer, for cleansing the blood. Keep the
blood healthy, and all is well; but with this
pabplum of life disordered, there can be no
lastipg health. Sooner or later something
mus go wrong, and the Great ‘

life is disordered or overthrown. machinery at
Sarsaparilla has, and deserves much, the
reputation, of accomplishing these ends. But.
the world has been egregiously deceived by
preparations of it, partly because the drum
alone has not all the virtue that is claimed
for it, but more because many preparafions
pretendipg to pe goriecntratcd extract.w (if it:
contain at Iitt c o t c virtue of S ‘ arilla
or any thing else. afsap
During late years the ublic hr '
led by large bottles, pretdiiding tdvg‘ivliaefinqgla‘r;
of Extract of Salsaparilla for one dollar Most
of these have been frauds ‘upon the sick for
they not only contain little, if any, Sarsiipa:
rilla, but often no curative properties whatev-
er. -Hence, bitter and painful disappointment
has followed the use of the various extracts of
Sarsapanllawluch flood the market, until the
name itself 18 justly despised, and has become
synonymous With imposition and cheat. Still
we call this compound Sarsaparilla, and intend
to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the
name .from the load of obloquy which rests
upon 3t. .And we think we have ground for
believmg it has virtues which ’are mean” 'stible
by the ordinary run of the diseases it is intend-
ed t9 cure. In order to secure their complete
eradication from the system, the remedy should
be judiciously taken according to directions on

the bottle. _
