THE

ANTEDILUVIAN AKM CHAIR.

A TEA AND qUlI/TIXG TARTY FIFTY YEARS ACiO. WRITTEN FOE THE GAZETTE. "Memorv, not so brilliant as hope, is almost as beautiful, and a thousand times an true.''

The wives of many of the early settler* of Terre Haute were educated ladies, aocial and thrifty, who braved the hardships, toil, privation*, and the inevitable homesickness. in a truly heroic spirit, and culled the sweet flowers of love and friendship with earnestness and fidelity, I'ndustry and economy, governed by discretion and good judgment, were the prominent traits of character.

One lady had pieced "a love of a quilt" at odd hours. A friend suggested a quilting ffarty tyheit it Was finished. The ladv was very particular and exact. Quilting, in those days, wan a "fine art," aixl the did not fancy having every one quilt for her, tearing they might spoiljher beautiful patch-work. After due Consideration, however, the partv was decided upon. Then came the difficult tafck of selecting the guests. .Son.e desirable ones did not quilt nicrly, and some s^ood qailterb were not "con^nial." .^etaoon .til things were satitfactorily arranged, the invitation? given in such a manner that "feelings"' were spared, the fatted calf was killed and ail things, made ready,

the ladies were assembled, and by one o'clock were quietly arranged around the cjuilr. Thev catne early, id an tohave a long afternoon for work

The guests were Mrs. Cunningham, Mrs- P. W. Osborne, Mrs. Weston, jMrs. A. Kv«s, (the mpther of Mr. liiarry Rons) Mrs. Hannah Kinney, Mrs. Stephen Collett. Mrs. Col. Huntington, and Mrs. Muntfort. If di&'ir

Mfs. Cunningham was a' desjr, kind, nsotheilv old lady who delighte'i4»i*iskiall the children of the then lialej village, happy. Mr*. Osborne, the wiffe of the Editor" ot the fi'at newspaper, published in Terre Haute, was a shrewd judge of cnaracter, and an isolated iitrifary society of ore. Mrs. Wasson (afterwards Mi*. Dr. Daniels.) was a courtoouK, cordial neighbor, ready to advis\ assist and relieve the tick aad weary, trulv a goocl Samaritan to all strangers, a lady of remarkably good judgment and refinement. Mrs. A. Ross was aUo a woman ot deci-.k-d character, upright, honorable. atvA self reliant, a mostucvoleu wife and mother in all respects a perfect housekeeper, given to hospital it v. and ever ready to succc: the poor. Mrs. Kinney, was an educated, brave lady of the olden time, always a lady under all circumstances, unassuming, yet firm and staunch ,for the right. Sirs. Collett was. a sweet lovabit gentle, woman, and an excellent neighbor. Mrs. Col. Huntington was brillyant, sympathetic, a warm friend tendfcr mother, and a devoted efficient wi*e. Mrs. Montfort was the wife of the Rev. David Wontfort, the first Presbyterian Minister ever neUlerJ herfc in Terr's'Hsute, a quiet woman, sad and out of place among the heroic, energetic women of the West.-

A llttK atf'sir of this rt that was siiven on Murray Mil last week cost $50, or

over $8 for the iunch of each person. There are Lenwn dinner parties a» well as lunch parties. Gentlemen have the privilege of attending these, but they must not appear in swallow-tails and "White ties. That would be altogether too worldly for Lent. Neither must the ladies present themselves in low-neck d-iesset. The flesh must be mortified in Lent, of course sb the ladies have to wear dresses which don't expose anything below the throat. The dress for gentlemen is frock coats and black tics, and such other things as they may wi6h to wear. The dinner is as sumptuous as anything that Delmonico couid get up, except in the item of wine. The line must be drawn somewhere, and in the cases it is drawn at the sideboard. Three.kinds of wine is the lowest, and these do«iot include champagne. Sauterne, sherry and claret are the onlv wines allowed in thoroughly pious families. There is no dancing after dinner, of course, but music is permitted, and the young folks take carte blanche for flirting, lust as though they were not keeping Lent at ail. The whole affair is supposed to be strictly in keeping with the penitential season, and perhaps it is—quite as much so as opera going, I am sure.

TH MISSISSIPPI JETTIES

THEIR CONDITION AKD WHAT THEY HAVE ACCOMPLISHED AS RELATED BY CAF1AIN EADS.

From tbe New Orleans times. Catain J. B. Eads who passed through this city Monday, en route to '.he jetties returned yesterday afternoon and registered at the St. Charles Hotel. Knowing that the late improvements in the condition of the passes had induced this trip, and rightly hurmislng that the Captain,.after his visit, would have something of interest on the subject to impart, a Tirues reporter called last night upon .1,0 Ciptam poinu 1

The capping on the weste-n jetty has been extended to within about '00 ieetof its sea end. This improvement has stepped an enormous waste of water over the ejrids of the jetties, and the result has t}ecn the opening of a splendid channel ijhtough the shoat which existed at the mouth of the jeities. Through the center of this channel the depth of the water is twenty-seven feet, and a shin drawing twenty-five feet has several hundred feet of channel within which to float out to sea.

There is nowhere less than twentyscven fc^t depih throughout the entire length of the jetty channel, At the head of the pasoes the works are being rapidly pushed to completion, and the channel there has undergone a decided improvement in the last six weeks. A vessel drawing twenty-four feet can easily pass through at the present time.

The shins Mikado and City of Limcrick, which have been reported in the rthern papers as being aground in the jetty channel, were not detained in the channel at all. The Mikado grounded by bad management in the pass -itself, two miles below the shoal at the head ot the pass. The City of Limerick was not aground, cither in the pass or jetties, but was detained at Port Eads because ot her propeller-key being lost out of the sh&tt.

A b«x dock was placed under her stern by Col. Andrew*, at Poft Eads, and pumped out, and the propeller replaced and keyed all in about forty-eight hours. She the 1 proceeded t« sea, drawing 23)4 fees water.

The London Graphic has published a roval wsdding number containing admirable illustrations of the great ceremony at St. George's Chapel, Windsor, *hen the Duke of Connaiight and the Priness Louise Margaret, of Prussia, were made one. There is a large sheet in colors giving prdtraits df the bride and groom. He is rather austere looking and she is petite and pretty- It also contains a portrait of the Duke as a baby in the arms of the Qneen, with his godfather, the Dake ot Wellington, after whom he was named Arthur, presenting the little Prince with a casket. The late

Prince Consort is in the background. The portraits of the eight bridesmaids iho*v them to be fairly pretty, particularly Lady BUnche Conjingharae and Lad Victoria Ed^ecu"ibe. Among the pre»ents'sk.etched are the first pair/al"shoesworn by* ll«e bride and now presented by tier nu.se.—fN. Y. Herald.

Mr. Ts-rring, an English barrister, has been appointed Professor of International Law at the University ofTokio. He wil' iectuse in English, that having betn adopted as "the learned language" b\ u:iivcrv:ty authorities.

The work done eince De

cember at the head of the pass .has fully restored th« natural discharge of the river. This of "usslf tvould increase the depth of the water at the mouth of the jetties, even if no work had been done upon the jetties themselves but since the 1st of January the sea ends of the jitties have been receiving a capping of concrete which has been the effect of compressing the willow mattresses of which those jetues are composed, and of stopping- the wastage of water through and over the top ot the jetties.

On the eastern jetty over i,Soo feet of this capping have already been laid, and it now extends out to within

150

feet of

the sea end of that jetty. The blocks of concrete are of enormous weight, those of the sea end being 'over seventy tons each. They measure 20 by 13 by 4 feet, and are :naue of the best Port and cement, combined with certain portions, of sand, gravel and broken "Stone.

Tne top of this capping stands two and one -half feet above the average of hightide waiter. When the blocks are first put on, a se'.tlement of six inches is observable This is doubtless due to the compression ofthe vviilowg. After fortyeight hours have, pa'sed, scarcely any further Hettlement whatever can at any time be detected.

These blocks in the course of a week become so hard aa to be able to successfully resist a smart blow from' a hammer, while the oljBV blocks resist the entrance of a sleJge-driven spike.

The blocks are laid closely together, and o» each ^ide of them a slope of stone and gravel is afterwards put. Thii blanket cftectualiy stops the passage of y?ater and facilitates the accumulation of frSjiiment in ine voids or spaces in the willow mattresses.

E LOVES OF G1 :AT MEN. V*.!

HOMT AUTHORS. POETS AKD STATESMEN HAVE BEFN SWAYED BY THE TEN'DBR PASSION. if

From the Troy Tim«a.

It is an old saying, "whom first we love we never wed.'' and this, though not strictly true, may be applied to Scott, Byroa, George Washington and many other men of note. It is interesting to observe how poets generally present their iove matters to the public, The personal experience of such men will crop out. Scott, for instance fell deeply in love in early life with a girl of aristocratic family, and as he was, then merely a poor barrister, there was no prospect of success. His father, knowing this, and being desirous to bring the matter to a close, suggested to the parents the propriety of terminating the acquaintance, and this was done in the least painful manner. The lady was the only daughter of Sir John Stewart, of Forfarshire, and she afterward married Sir William Forbes, the noted Edinburg banker. As Scott was a welleducated young man, of fine personal appearance and agreeable manners, there could be but Tittle reason for giving the banker .preference except his wealth and social rank. Scott felt this keenly through life in "Rokeby" he revives the episode at some length. Matilda, the heroine of the poem, represents the object of hi# love, who there rejects a poet in favor of one of higher rank and this fccene becomes doubly terestingas a picture, of Scott's early experience. In iSti lady Forbes died, but she lived long enough to see the once penniless barrister the first poet in Scotland. Her death was keenly felt by Scott, for although he had been married for twelve years the old flame was not extinguished. "Rokeby" appeared next year, and Lockhurt says "that there is nothing wrought out in all Scott's prose, more exquisite than the contrast between the rivals for the hand ot the heroine." Six years afterward, Scott wrote thus tb Miss Edgewortk. "Matilda was attempted for the person of a lady who is now no more, so that I am flattered with your distinguishing it." As this took p'«ace nearly twenty years after the disappointment, it illustrates the tenacitv with which the author held to his first love. When Lady Forbes died Scott was so affected that he' called on her mother, and both fell to weeping over the sad affair. It is a curious incident in domestic history to see a man carrying his first love so tenderly through life, while married to another woman to whom he always showed tfreat attachment. Scott evidently made Matilda the ideal or dream wife who ac companied him till the last. Having recovered from the worst effects of his disappointment. he meta French girl whose fatner had saved both life and fortune by fleeing from the danger* of the revolution. At the time referred to, Miss Charpsntier (or Carpenter) was an orphan, and to her Scott transferred his affections, as far as this was possible. He appeared, as has been said, much at: tachcd to his wife through life, and sincerely mourned her death. She was, howtver, intellectually and physically inferior to the Scottish ladies of that day, and the rapid degeneracy Of the family may, in some degree, be ascribed to so unfavorable a union.

Jefferson, the author of the Declaration, was also subject to early disappointment. His first love was a Virginia maiden of reputable family named Rebecca Burwell. The latter, however, preferred a young man named Robinson, and Jefferson, like most sensitive youths, keenly felt the loss of one whom he tenderlv* loved. He afterward married Martha Shelton, an attractive widow of 22, and the union proved one of rare happiness. It lasted, however, only ten years, at the end of which Jefferson was left & widower with two daughters—four others having died in early childhood. Of these daughters, Maria married John W. Epps, while Martha became the wife of Thomas Randolph. The latter thus describes the. care which her father bestowed ori his dying wife: "For four months, during which she lingered, he was never out of call. A moment before the closing scene he was led from the room in a fainting condition by his sister, and was so overcome that it was feared he would not recover. He kept his bed three w»:ks after the funeral, and required my constant attention." Jefferson was evidently a man of deep tenderness, and after his death there was found in his drawer a lock of hair from each of his dead children, which he had kept as sacred memorials. Though only

Washington and Franklin both married widows. The former fell in love with Martha Custis on first sight, and, having been disappointed in his expectation of the hand of Mary Morris, he urged his suit until it was successful. He adopted this wife's children, and his married life was one of unbroken harmony. Franklin's case was rather peculiar. During his early life in Philadelphia he paid attention* to Miss Read, but soon after went to London, where he remained several years. During the separation he neglected. Miss Read in a manner which ne him»eif afterward condemned. On his return he louni that she had married, but her husband, who had proven worthless, was gone on a voyage aad supposed to be dead. Franklin's early love returned, and, being reinforced by sympathy, he asked her forgiveness and a re

newal of her affections which was readily

granted. Jefferson waa married at the age of

The latter says of

his wife: "We prospered together, and it was our mutual study to render each other happy. Thus corrected, as well ae I couic, the error of my youth." This union continued for nearly forty years, and, though Franklin was the survivor, ne remained a widower. They are buried side bjr side in the old Philadelphia eemeterv, and a huge slab which covers both graves bears the simplest inscription that Franklin could devise. While »peaking of this subject it may be added that American statesmen have generally been married men, and the Presidential chair hat never but once been occupied by a bachelor. It is said that Buchanan, tine Irving, was disappointed in his early love, and it so, it aii'ords a pirdonabie reason for his celibacy. Another bachelor politician ot some note was the late Preston King, formerly United Stites Senator, and aUo collector of our

port. To these instance*is to be, added that of Samuel J. Tilden& |T Shakspeare w*s, at eighteen, marriec (no doubt through compulsion) to a wo man eight years his senior. Before he reached manhood he was the father of three children, but he then deserted his family, and sought a new abode in Lon don. I tjs evident that thia iH-adjudged marriage lfcd him to tie opinion' that the advantage of years should be on Uws.husband's side, an idea which is neatly expressed in "Twelfth Night,*' where the Duke says to Viola:

Let still the woman tako

There are, however, some very striking instances of a reversal of this order working harmoniously. Dr. Johnson married a woman twenty years older than himself. He loved her sincerely and never ceared to»mourn her death. When this occurred he was forty-three, and yet he remained a widower, dying at the age of s«vttnty-six. John Howard, when young man, married a widow twenty years his senior. This was %n expression of his gratitude for her kindness and attention during a severe illness. They Hved in great harmony until her death, which Occurred a few years afterward- A second union was also sundered by death, and then Howard entered otv that career of philanthropy which has rendered his name immortal!''

Among those men of genius who felt the keen disappointment of their affections were Irving and Gibbon, both historians who afterward reached fame. Gray, the author of the "Elegy," died a bachelor of

55,

when

he lost his wife he never married again, 'and remained for

years a widower.

Pope, who is also on the list of literary bachelors!, had deep emotional power, as is evident from some of his poems. It was a matter of tradition that he was

much

attached to Martha Blount, to

whom he net only addressed a poem but bequeathed his antire estate. He, hawever, was an invrlid, and spoke of his life as a "long disease," a fact which may have had great influence in keeping him a celibate. The most incorrigible and unpardonable bachelor of genius was Sir Joshua Reynolds, the famous painter, whose immense wealth deprived him of any such excuse as has just been mentioned. He was, however, intensely devoted to art and had no room for any other object of the affections. On one occasion meeting Flaxman, who was then a young sculptor struggling for a position, he exclaimed: Well, sir, I learn that you have married. If so, you are ruined for an artist." Flaxman, howeaer, proved by his success that such wa« not the case.

After seventeen years of painful delay Mie was allowed to become his wife, with the itipulation that they were still to live aparpahd never to meet. except iti the presence of a tlti|df peffcQn. The history of'JVannessa" also occurs in this connection, and may {.imply be mentioned as aggravating the liprribje and -unnatur

al baseness of S.wift's chara^'.er. Southey lovea EditK Frfdker, but both were poor and he was obliged .to leave home (Bristol) in order to accept an ap1*.1 pointment in Portugal. Just, before the vessel sailed, they formicf their hahds in matrirponiar bonds, the reason being in order to permit the one t6 receive remittances from, the other without scandal. Southey returned in six months,.and the uniop^thus begun in p6verfy(vyas one of prolonged happiness. Coleridge married Sarah Fricker, sUter to Edith, but though more intense in his feeling than Southey, he was vastly his inferior in the duties of dopiestic life. It seems strange that the man who could write:

All thoughts, all passions, all delights, Whatever utir ttiu mortal frame. Are hut the ministers ot love,

Andfsed his sacr#U flame, should desert his wite and family during half a lifetime. Only Southey's chdrity kept the latter from absolute want. Coleridge, however, was the slave of the opium haibit, and that is sufficient to explain almost any degree of domestic neglect. Byron is another instance of one who could write beautifully concerning love, while his history proved how little he could appreciate true womanhood.

As Gray was never "erased with care,* the latter clause in the verse is the only one that can be applied to his case. He was of a susceptible nature, but poverty stood in the way of a domestic life. He had a sure support as one of the "fellows" of Cambridge University, but this would have been forfeited by marriage. Goldsmith stands on the same list. He was in love with the beautiful Miss Herneck, whom he fondly termed the "Jessamine Bride," but the ^lender and uncertain earnings of a London literateur in the Nineteenth Century were not sufficient to justify matrimony. Cowper, also, was disappointed in love, but he found a faithful friend in Mrs. Uftwin, whose ministrations were of the most affectionate character.
