The ?Story of lois Itonrantle Courtship Pleasantly Told. "The Personal Historyof Garibaldi," told in an interesting way by Ears. BareiCi- ardi, is is timely feature of the midsummer holiday number of ehe. "Century." His romantic courtehip is described as follows: Disappointed in his hopes of accomplishing great things for liberty in South Aenerica, saddened by the death and imprisonnlent of his companions,' and weary with his personal sufferioge, Garibaldi was standing one day on the deck of his ship, when; among the women who came to the shore for water, one suddenly attracted his notice. " I gave orders," says hen:" toehe put on shore, and I approached the house pointed out to me as her dwelling -with a beating heart, but with that determined will which never fails to command. A man (her husband) invited me to enter. I should have done so without his levitation. I had seen him previously. And to the young worcum I said: eThou must be mine by a bond which only death 'can dissolve.' 1 had found a treasute, forbidden, indeed, but of what value If there was blame it was wholly mine. And blame there was. Two souls were indissolubly 'bound together, and the heart of an innocent man was broken. But she is dead.- He -is avenged -avenged indeed. And I acknow- ledge my sin ou that day when, striving still to detain her with me, I felt her failing pulse, and sought to catch her feeble breathing, but I preeeed the hand and kissed the lips of. the dead, and wept the tears of despair." From ' this -pet:mbar description of his courtship, if so "that could be called which proceeded. in such summary fashiou, it may' be inferred that Garibaldi's way of love was very similar .to his way of warfare. " He took :Anita Rivierae," say e Ricciardi, rn pretty much the same manner that he did Palermo," and however tittle it might have been expected from auch a commencement, to ehe end of poor Auitals life she was faith- ful to her hero. She bore him three children, Memetti, been in 1840 ; 'Teresita, in 1845, and Riemotti, in 1847- . • , • The New Testament. • The books of the New Testament were originally written in the Greek language, and at different periods of time, ranging from 55 A.
