From the Lady .Magazine THE DIVORCED. 1 was very young when I first saw Mrs. irilmprtnn. hut I recollect perfectly well how ninrli 1 was struck with the calm, clear, full irnps of her voice. It was iddecd music, hut music so monotonous and so melancholy, that, like the voice of Coleridge s L mehne, "Even in the mirthful mood, It made me wish away and weep." i nlWirnrds I sncnt some weeks OCItlOl Jiv...-- - , in the town where she resided, and thougl not well versed in human nature. 1 11 1 . . . . J I ,nlm A r very thought I could aiieiu uihiii ii'.i v.. j terior tlie traces oi juimj; .tiv...v... the emotions. She was a tall, hnely formed woman, with a hand and arm that might have been the model for a sculptor. Her face was chiefly remarkable for the extreme paleness of its complexion, and the wonderful brightness of the ens: indeed, had it not been for those large, black, lustrous eyes, that face would have seemed chiselled from the marble, so -snowy, so unchangeably white was the hue of lip, nnd;chcck,aml brow. Her demeanor was alwavsValm, self-possessed and lady like, but not one among those who then were her associales.had ecr marked the faintest shadow of emotion upon her fair countenance. Ilcr tranquility seemed unnatuial. Too deep to be merely the calm slumber of the passions and affections of human nature, it rather seemed like the silence which followed the fearful rush of the hurricane the silence of desolation. Her skill in music was unrivalled, and 1 well remember her singular and almost awe-inspiiingnppenrance as she sat at the piano, her tall figure shrouded in a black velvet dress, her dark hair parted on her marble brow, and her small, bloodless looking hands, drawing forth strains that seemed to thrill through every heart. Hut when she Eiing when these'colorless lips opened, to emit sounds that seemed to 'lap the soul in elysium,' the clVect was such as never could be forgotten. I have since seen her in her coffin, and cxrrnlintr that the hrisrht eves was pressed down beneath its purple lid. there was no change ; l,pr countenance. Its paled hue, its calm d it seemed as if death himself had been unable to work hi usual chances upon this 'statue of flesh.' inrr in a volume of 1 I CIIIVIIII'V I v v -- - - - fairy tales of the young princess, who, after receiving every good gift from the benevolent spirits.found them all rendered useless by the .nnnrontlr tiirlinfr but miScblCVOUS Ctliln.vn.nont of an oflended fairy. The history f mm.v of our evcrv-day associates would fnniUli nn ant illustration of this allegory How often do we see the blessings of fortune and beauty and genius rendered valueless to their possessor by the presence oi some i uc , il trooft nuulitv. Perhaps there never was a stronger instance of this than the case of Clara Wilmerton. Endowed with a fine person and rare genius, inheriting immense fnihnr. and united to one TV.UIUI ilV't"" - 7 who was no less respected by the world than ndored bv hcrsclf.it needed no great skill in vaticination to prophecy for her a brilliant destiny. Hut in vain the'faircst flowers blossomed in her path: "the trail of the serpent ws rtirr flipnt nil-' ami where others less cifted mieht have found happiness, she only met with desolation. Among all the bounti ful srifts of nature and fortune one thingonly has been neglected. Temper was the one mil pnilnumnnt which accompanied the blessings that had fallen to her let. and this was sufficient to render all the others useless. From infancy her passions had been excessively violent, and her timid parents, terrified nt the sight of her fragile little form, convulsed with rage, had shrunk from the task of subduing those passions, until long habit had rendered them a part of her very nature. As she grew up, the decencies of society, of course, compelled her to check the ebulitions of a temper which she could not govern but the evil was concealed, not destroyed; and, however refined and elegant her manners ap peared, there was often an angry spot on her hmw. and a flashed lisiht in her eyes, which told of feelings very unlike the gentleness of woman. Those who looked upon tier in aller life, when she exhibited only the immo bility of the statue, would have found it dif ficult to believe in youth the principal charm of her face was its every varying expression. Possessing a highly cultivated mind, and unrivalled skill in music, it was delightful to watch her fine countenance when engaged in intellectual converse, or, when seated at the piano, she gave free scope to her passionate love for music, and improvised the most exquisite airs that ever thrilled a sensitive heart. The dazzling bright eye", the ever varying complexion, the quick vibration of the delicatelv arched brows, the rapid movcment of the beautifully chiselled lips, nil combined to form a picture of that most exquisite of all styles of beauty, the beauty of expression. But the vividness of the changes which nnnl over her face was a faint Symbol of the violence of her feelings. Every emotion was with her passion; her friendship was a species of tyranny from which nil revolted, for she exacted nil the demonstrations of the ardent love; her dislike was perfect hatred, and her love was passion so deep, so violent, so almost turbulent, that by its own excess it destroyed all chance of reciprocal affection. It may be easily imagined, therefore, that in married life, where so much gentleness and forbearance and subdued tenderness are necessary, Clara WImerton was not destined to find happiness. She loved her husband as only such a heart as hers could love, while his affection for her was simply that quiet, tran

quil sort of preference with which most men enter the conjugal state, and which, in nfter

years, either ripens into tne warmest nnecJ. ' - . I'lf tion, or degenerates into loiai lnaiuerencu. With all the discriminating tact that belongs to woman's character, it is astonishing to per ceive how generally they deceive themselves when they attempt to judge of the feelings of a husband. It is seldom, very seldom, that man marries the object of his first affection; it is seldom that he marries at all until after the freshness of his feelings, like the impress upon coin, has been worn oft by constant collision with his fellow men; and how can it he pnerted that he should look upon his ' X- -W "J'-v wife, with the deep and fervent tenderness with which she must necessarily regard him? The nbiect of her first love, the possessor of .j - . . . . . her heart s long hoarded tenderness, lei rarelv are these things considered; and when woman looks for affection as fervent as her - i .. . . j i n... own. anil linus U nor. too oiien uoessne iinun the wailings of discontent to be her husband s 7 ' . - , only welcome to a home which she alone can brighten. II the husband be a man oi prin ciple, it depends" entirely upon the wife to awaken that tenderness which will shed over their latter days "the moonlight of the heart" and if, through ignorance or wilfulness, she neglect the means of doining'this, woe, deep woe, to her, lor the guilt no less man tne mis ery is tiers. Had Clara WilmTfon allowed herself to be directed by the dictates of her tlcar judg ing mind, she would have eventually been happy, but her passions were too vehement to submit to such a government. The thousand little diversities of character which renders the first years of married life always a period of probation, were to her occasions oi uncontrolablc sorrow or ungovernable anger, Compared with her own strong affections, her husband's warmest tendencies were cold. The fatigues of business, the cares of wealth, the reaction of an over excited spirit, all in turn occasionally shadowed his brow; but she considered not these natural causes, while she attributed the gloom which she sometimes marked in his countenance, to his diminished regard for herself. This is another error which often makes ship-wreck of a woman's peace. Her thoughts constantly occupied by the object of her affections, she forgets that his very situation in society prevents her husband from yielding himself so entirely to the influence of the gentler feelings. Love is the whole business of a woman's life the daughter the wife the mother in all these char-ter-s love is the lendinir motive of all her ac tions: but its holiest attributcs.it is to him but as an interlude between the acts of a bu sv. active life, and never is a woman so mis crablv mistaken as when she believes herself to he the sole cause of his anxieties. I say miserably mistaken, because it almost invariably leads to a course of conduct which is sure to'produce the most evil results. It was impossible to meet Mrs. Wilmerton in societv. pitied as she was beyond her sex. and not admire her: it was equally impossi ble to know her in private life, and yet love her. Possessing a heart filled with kindness, that seemed to yearn with tenderness over every living rcature,shc deprived herself of every hope of being beloved, by that ungovernable temper which terrified her ordinary associates, and even repelled her dearest friends. Mr. Wilmerton soon grew weary of :i borne where frowns awaited him more frequently than smiles. The strength of his principles were a sure defence against vice; but unfortunately the world offers too many attractive modes of dissippating time to him who finds at his own fireside that worst of all friends, domestic discord. Instead of striving to win him back by gentleness and did such means ever fail of meeting their own reward; Clara met him with bitter reproaches and passionate tears. Poets may talk as they will of tears being a woman's strongest weapons; she may nnu mem so once or twice, un It t her resort to them frequently as a means of resistance, and whether her opponent be a lover or i nusuanu, sue win soon it-aiu now I I 1 1 1 l..r ensilv such weapons may be foiled. 1 he ouict. half-concealed tear of gentle, devoted woman may do much, the passionate gush of violent emot'on can seldom triumph more than once. In a little time Clara found her husband's affections entirely alienated from her. Restless and unhapp-, he plunged into the vortex of fashionable life, with a headlong eagernefs that spoke a mind ill at ease. At home, moody and silent, he listened to his wife's sullen murmurs or vehement reproaches with equal indifference. Such a state of things cculd not last long without some fearful result. It was on the third anniversary of their marriage, a day which, notwithstanding their increasing happiness, they celebrated with a small party of friends, that the evil reached its climax. At the supper table some slight difference of opinion occurred, and Clara yielding to the impulse of her temper gave utterance to some of the keen and bitinir sarcasms which are more severe for being veiled in the most elegant and polite language. Like the heavy sword of Kithard Coeur de Lion, through a bar of iron at a single stroke, his mind could master any thing that could be overcome bymere strength, while her wit was like the fine tempered scimetar of the Saracen kirtg, which could divide the f ielding and pliable down cushion, even though it otlered no resi tame of the blow. Stung by her remarks, Wilmerton could not forbear renewing the conversation after the departure of the party. The greater part of the night was consumed in violent altercation, and the next evening saw him on board a ship bound for France. The frantic grief and anger of the un happy wife knew no bounds. Her very love for him increased the vehemence of her rage at his desertion; and when, week affer week, month after month passed, and no letter no

evidence of remembered regard reached her,!

maddened by her furious passions she applied , to the courts of law tor a divorce. Many secret misgivings crossed her heart during the process of hei suit. Many a remorse swelled her bosom when she thought of j her idolized husband, whom she is now cast-j ing fiom her forever: but mistaken pride and j indignation steeled her against the surges-j lions of her better feelings. "He shall not return, she said to heisell, "he shall not when wearied with the follies of tho world, return to his deserted wife, and find her lamely submitting to be recalled whenever he may condescend to claim her duty." The divorce was obtained. Hy mentis of the mercantile house with which he had been cmnwwl ert. fcbe sent him n nronerlv eTecnted - " - I I j copy of the paper, but without adding a sin-i gle word cither ol explanation or reproach. Yet she had almost unconsciously cherished a hope that the paper would be returned, or at lcat that her husband would write to re monstrate against her rashness. How dread fully was she deceived, when, in less than a year after the deed had been transmitted to him, she learned that he was the husband ol another. Goaded by disappointment and sorrow, Wilmerton had at first plunged info all the fillies of Paris; but the thorn was in his side, and every attempt to extricaie only urged it deeper in his wound. Among the many fascinating women whom he constantly met, was one who had first attracted him by the gentlein ss of her manners, and a face ike the sunshine in spring, seemed to brigh ten every thing it looked upon. During their early acquaintance, a number of "those rival circumstances occurred which give so deep an insight into Individual character, and Wilmerton was charmed by the unruffled serenity of her temper. Perhaps the contrast which her sweet and cheerful temper afforded to that which had so long harassed him by its turbulence, contributed not a little to the charms which Wilmerton found in her society, and before he was aware of it himself he was unconsciously betrayed into those attentions, which, as a married man, he never ought to have proffered. To add to his re morse, he discovered that the young and artless French girl had learned lo love him with the tenderest affection. As a man of princiciple, he shuddered at the apparent dishonor of his conduct, as a man of feeling, he trembled at the misery which he had unconsciously inflicted. In the midst of his perplexity whilst suffering the keenest pangs for his unguardedness, he received the deed of divorce. This severed forever the tie that united him to his unhappy wife, and when he considered the manner in which she had conducted the process for diorcc when he recollected the bitterness of her resentment, and the violence of her temper, he felt that no forbearance was due from him. One course alone seemed left him lo pursue. Clara had vol untarily burst the bonds which united them and he was now at liberty to repair the in jury which ne had unconsciously indicted on the young r rench girl. Whatever were his feelings, he concealed them within his own bosom, and the fair Adela became his wife. A fearful shuddering shook his frame, and hi check was ghastly pale as he stood before the altar with his sec6nd bride, but she marked it not, and with the strength of a wcll-lried spirit he mastered his emotion. Cara knew nothing of the particulars of the marriage, and it she had, they woul have afforded her no consolation. One only thought was present with her she had cast from her a precious treasure, and that treasure now graced the cabinet of another. The an guish was more than she could bear. Her spirit wrestled in vain with this more than mortal agony, until reason perished in her citadel, and the unfortunate Clara became a raving maniac. For five years she lingered in the loneliness of a maniac's cell. At one limequiet and melancholy in her madness, but at others raging like a tigress robbed of her whelp: Sickness at length, reduced her to the verybrink of the grave; but, as her body gradually decayed her mind seemed to return, and before the crisis of her disease was past, her eyes again shone with the light of intellect. She recovered; but when she arose from her bed of sickness, they who had looked upon her in her day of happiness, nay, even they who had watched her hours of madness nnd disease, gazed upon her with awe and won der. Every trace of the violent tempera mcnt and passionate feelings, had vanished. Hei lace was such as I have before described it, pale, cold, statue-like, and never from that hour was the slightest shadow of emotion seen to cross that marble countenance. One more scene in her life remains to be rocorded, and I have done. She had quited her native city and taken up her abode in Baltimore, where her elegant manners and skill in mu sic rendered her the delight of all fashionable circles. It happened one night that a splendid party, given by one of the most distinguished women of our country, Mrs. Wilmerton had been frequently called upon to play and sing, until wearied with constant importunities shejretrcated from the crowd, and entered a small room, which had been lifted up as a retreat-room, or bourdoir. A few select friends followed her, and after repeated entreaties from her companions, Mrs. Wilmer ton seated herself beside a harp, commenced a beautiful and plantivc voluntary. I will sing one song," said she, "but do not ask me for another. This is the anniversary of one of the most unhappy days of my life, and but for the promise extorted from me by Mrs. i n t u :t.,,t,i i J- , uuiu uwi urtvc uuiuuuu my moodiness among so gay an assemblage." " It was the first time that any of her companions had ever heard hcrallude to her own historv, and ther listened in breathless silence as she

a wild and meloncl.oly air, the foi-' lowing words. I have no heart I know not where The wild and artless tiling- has fled, It lives not in the mortal breast, Nor is it with the dead. I have no heart love, hope or joy Stir not the current of my life, Nor know 1 aug-ht from rapture's thrill, Or passion's fearful strife. I have no heart too early chilled It slumbers ne'er to wake again; E'en as the frosen traveller sleeps Through all life s parting pnui. I have no heart no power can rouse My spirit from its heavy trance; Alike to me arc love's sweet tones, And hatred's withering glance, I have no heart nor would I call The restless thing of life once more, E'en if I wish could gain me all I dreamed in days of yore. The song ceased, and Mrs. Wilmerton pushed the harp from her, rose as if to retire. What was it that rivited her to the spot where she stood? Immediately before her, in the doorwa3 .stood the long absent bus band, and, leaning on his arm, the delicate little creature, who was now his wife. Ten years had passed since Clara gazed upon these features, but she new them at a glance No gloom was upon her cheek, no tremulous ness in her step, but her blue veins upon her marble brow were swollen and darkened with suppressed emotion, as she glided by and left the room, business had compelled nUmer ton to visit America, and little dreaming of finding his wile in that part of the country, he had excepted an invitation to Mrs. nartv. . The attraction of sweet sound's had drawn him to the boundoir, and he had listen ed with deep interest to the Fong, totally un conscious of his connexion with the songstress until she turned and presented lo his gaze the altered features of his deserted Clara. Whatever Clara may have felt, no change was pcrreptible in her manner. The hus band and wife never met again. Wilmerton returned to France, and died n few weeks after. Clara lived till time had woven many a silver thread amid her raven tresses,-a melancholly example of the leafless desert of the mind. kew aois.
