EMEEI She leans beside her mirror, in her old accustomed pia e, Yet something unfamiliar is on her lovely tam; ' She wears a wreath, a snow white wreath, whirls yet she It gives a palenesa to the cheek, unknown to it iwfore Tho maiden goeth to the grove, and, of the flowers bo neath, She takes the illy or the rose. to bind her midnight wreath; But of one plant she gathers not, though fair its blossoms Only the bride bath leave to wear buds from the orange tree. Once, only once that wreath Is worn—once only may she wear The pale white wreath of orange-flowers within her shi fling hair;. They wear, upon their soft wan lioom, the shade of coming years; The spiritual presence is around ~of human hopes and fears. Ay, let her soft and thoughtful eyes, upon her mirror dwell, . • For, in that long and tender look, she taketh her farewell Of all her youth's unconsciousness, of all her lighter cares. And fur a deeper. sadder life—a woman'.. lot—prepares. She leaves her old familiar place, the hearts tied were her The lore to Irhich she trusts herself is yet n thing un Tho Ugh at One name her cheek turn red, though sweet it be in hear, Yet for that name she must resign so much that has tn•en dear.? It is an anxious happiness,—lt is a fearful thing. When first the maiden's small white hand puts on the gel den rink; She passefh from her father's house, unto another's care. And who may say what troubled hours, what sorrows wait her there? Ali! loin and life are mysteries, both blessing and both blest: Anl yet how much they teach the heart of trial and un rest Sweet maiden, while these troubled thoughts 'mid bridal thneies sweep, Well may'l4 tk , ou pensive watch thi glass, and turn aside to weep! GETTING , 4 FITS " IN A CLOTHING STORE Lewistowii Falls, Me., is a place, it is ! You can't exactly find it on the map, for it has been located and incorporated since Mitchell's latest, but it's there—a manu facturing city, as large as life, with banks, barber shops, newspapers and all the usual fixtures and appurtenances of a locomotive, go-ahead Yankee settlement. _ . Just about the newest thing, in the new city, is a new, cheap clothing store that "riz up" or "rained down," lately, on the Jonah's gourd or Aladdin's pain.o p 5;....1 ple, and which, by the same mysterious dispensation, became endowed with a coup le of the cutest Yankee salesmen that the Dirigo State ever turned out. T'other day an up-river young 'un, who is about to for sake both father and mother and cleave unto Nancy Ann, came down to get his wedding suit, and was, of course, "jest nat erally baound" to find his way into the new clothing store. Not that he saunter ed in with the easy swagger of the town bred searcher after cheap clothing; for the vernal tint was tolerably fresh on him yet, and lie stopped to give a modest rap at the door. He had effected an entrance at the grist-mill and at the . 4 Journal" office,where he had been doing business,' in the same unobtrusive manner, and the boys all agreed that Mr: Nehemiah Newbegin was from, "the Gulley," and was paying his vir gin visit to "Pekin." Nehemiah was let in ccimejitly," and he was delighted at the cordial reception he met with. The proprietors were ready to, "forward his suit" at once, if he "saw fit," or they would "take measures" and "furnish him to order" Nehemiah drew a hand-bill from the top of his hat, and spread it upon his knee for easy reference. It wa headed in fat Gothic letters "Winter Clothing at Cost !" and set forth that, in consequence of the mildness of the season, over five hundred thousand dollars worth of ready-made clothing was to be closed up and sold out at an • “Enormous Sacrifice !” A list of prices followed, and Nehenfiah running his stumpy fingers down the col umn, lit with emphasis on a particular item. 'Say !—v'ye got enny of these blew cotes left, at five dollars 'nd five n'af 'nd six dollars—got enny on 'em left V 'Smith, are there any of those cheap coats left enquired the 'perlite' Mark of his partner. 'We sold the last this morn ing, did we not?' Smith understood the cheap clothing business; and answered promptly, 'All gone sir !' 'Jest s'l'xpected,' iturmured the disap pointed candidate, 3 darnation seize't all ! I told dad they'd be all gone !' 'We have a very superior article for ten dollars' 'Scacely, Squire, scacely !—ten dollars is an all fired price for a cote !' 'We can make you one to order.' ! but I want it now—want it rit strut off—fact is Squire, I must hey 'un.' cYoU'd find those cheap at ten dollars.' `Dun know baout it ! Say, v'ye got en ny of these dewrable doeskin trowses left, at tew dollahe<ld them all tew, spect, haint ye? .h mt none o' them left nether, hey' ye ?' Luckily there were a few left, and Ne: hemiah was advised to secure a pair at once. Nehemiah was open for a trade, but acting up the 'instincts of the Newbe gins, it must be a dicker. 'Dew yeou ever tek prodjeuice for your clothing .V 'Take what V 'Prodjeuce—garden sass and sich—don't dew it, dew yeou?'- 'Well, occasionally we do; what have you to. sell_?' "'Oh, almost anythin'; a leefle of every thing, from marrow-fat peas down to rye straw; got some new cider, some high-top sweethlgs;got some of the all-161,1;11'1d dried punkin yeou ever sot eyes on; spebt, neow, yeim'cl like some of that dried pun kin.' Mark declined negotiating for the (dried punkin,' but inquired if he had any good butter. o a-0 7 4a-d butter ! naow, Squire, I ex- pect I've got some of the nicest and yaller est yeou ever sot eyes on; got some out here naow; got some in a sooger box, eout in dad's waggin; bro't it daown fer Kur nul Waldron, but yeou ken hev' it; I'll bring it right strut • in here, darned of I 4loan't !' and with all. the impetuosity of youth, Nehemiah shot forth to 'dad's wag gin,' and brought in the butter. On the strength of the butter, a dicker was speedily contracted, by which Nehe miah was to be put in immediate and abso lute possession of a coat, vest and panta loons, all of good material and fit, 'Now, then,' said Mark, 'what kind of a coat will you have 'I reckon I'll hev' a blew 'un, Squire.' 'Yes, but what kind—a dress coat 1' "Certainly, Squire, certainly, jest'what I want a coat for, tew dress in. 'Ah, exactly; well, just look at those plates,' pointing to the fashion-plates in the window, 'and see what style you fan- 'Oh, darn yeour plates, daon't want any crockery; speck Nance has got the al-kil lin'est lot of arthen ware yeou ever sot eyes on !' 'Yes, I see; well, just step this way, then, and I think I can accommodate you.' Nehemiah speedily selected a nice, blue coat, and vest of green, but he . was more fastidious in his choice of pants, those crowning glories of his new suit. He seem ed to indulge a weakness for long panta loons, and complained that his last pair had troubled him exceedingly, or as he ex pressed it, ccblamedly," by hitching up over his boots, and wrinkling about the knees. Nehemiah delved away impetuous ly amidst a stack of two or three hundred pairs, and finally his eyes rested upon a pair - of lengthy ones, real blazers, and with wide, yellow stripes running each way.— Nehemiah snaked them out in a twinkling. He liked them—they were long and yel low—they were just the thing, and he pro ceeded" at once to try them on. The-new clothing store had a nook curtained off for this purpose, and Nehemiah was speedily closeted therein. The pants had straps, and the straps were buttoned; Now Nehemiah had seen straps before, but the art of managing them was a mystery, and like Sir Patrick's dilemma, 'requited a mighty dale of con sideration." • On deliberation', he decided that the boots must go first; he according ly drew on his Bluchers, mounted a chair, elevated the pants at proper angle, and endeavored to coaxthe legs into them. But he had a time of it. His boots were none of the smallest, and the pants, though long, were none of the widest; the chair, too, was ricketty, and bothered him, but, bend ing his energies to the task, he succeeded in inducting one leg into the 'pesky things.' He was straddled like the Colossus of Rhodes, and just in the act of raising the other foot, when a whispering and giggling in his immediate vicinity, made him alive to the appalling fact that nothing but a thin curtain of chin+, twenty or thirty of the prettiest, and wick edest girls that were ever caged in one shop ! Nehemiah was a bashful youth, and would have made a circumbendibus of a mile, any day, rather than meet those girls, even had he been in full dress; as it was, his mouth was ajar at the bare possi bility of making his appearance amongst them in his present dishabille. What if there was a hole in the curtain ! What if it should fall ! It would'nt bear thinking of, and, plunging his foot into the vacant leg, with a sort of frantic looseness, he brought on the very catastrophe he was so anxious to avoid. The chair collapsed with a sudden 'scrouch,' pitching Nehemiah' head over heels through the curtain, and he made his grand entrance among the divinitie's upon all fours, like a fettered rhinoceros. Perhaps Collier himself never exhibited a more striking group of tableaux vivantes than was now displayed. Nehemiah was a 'model,' every inch of him, and though not exactly 'revolving on a pedestal,' he was going through that movement quite as effectually on his back, kicking, plunging; in short, personifying in thirty seconds all the attitudes ever 'chiselled !' As for the gals, they screamed of course, jumped up on chairs and cutting board, threw their hands over their faces, peeped through their fingers, screamed again, and declared 'they should die, they knew they should'!' 'Oh Lord ! blubbered the distressed and bashful young 'un, 'don't holler so galls, don't! I did'nt go tew, I swan to man I did'nt; it's all owin' to those cussed trowsers every mite on't. Ask yer boss, he'll tell ye how 'twas. Oh Lordy, won't nobody kiver me up with old clothes, or turn the wood box over me. Oh Moses in the bullrushes ! what'll Nancy say 1' He managed to raise himself on his feet, and made a bold splurge toward the door, but his a entangling alliances" tripped him up again, and he fell "kerslap" upon the hot goose of the pressman! This was the'nnkindest cut of all. The goose had been heated expressly for thick cloth seams, and- the way it fizzled in the seat of the new pants was afflicting to the wearer.— Nehemiah riz up in an instant, and seizing the source of all his troublea by the slack, he tore himself free from all save the straps and some pantalet like fragments that hung about his ankles, as he dashed through the door of the emporium, at a two-forty pace: Nehemiah seemed to yearn with the poet, for a lodgelin some vast wilderness," and betrayed a settle purpose to " flee from the busy haunts of men," for the last seen of him he was capering up the railroad—cut ting like a scared rabbit, the rays of the declining sun flickering and dancing upon a broad expanse of shirtail that fluttered gaily in the breeze, as he headed for the nearest woods.—Yankee Blade. From Housghold Words. MISSING A ➢TARRIED GENTLEMAN The readers of Nathaniel Hawthorne's Twice Told Tales will remember a very cu rious speculative essay on the subject of a gentleman, who took the strange whim of suddenly absenting himself from his wife and family, and remaing concealed for ma ny years in the neighborhoad of his own home, for the 'purpose of observing their conduct after his supposed death. It is an old newspaper story, and was found, I believe, by Mr. 4wthorne„in an American journal. A yeat, or two ago it was, also related in a London weekly pa per, ,the scene then beinkin the suburbs of the nistiopolis;. and Iremember a fewyears liaok to have Diet with it in in a French pa per, .wherein•the circumstances 'were stated of - recent oopurreneeCt!Le mysterious hus band' beiig„_nO" other ',than our old friend the SiCui X:, pro bac "vice, drp,per in the ~. , . CITY OF LANCASTER, TUESDAY MORNING, AUGUST 1, 1854. Rue St. Honore e The various versions are evidently taken from one another; but the original story, which differ scarcely in any thing but names, is found in Dr. William King's", Political and Literary - Anedotes of his own Times." Dr. King was a well knoWn scholar and a busy literary man, in the early part of the century. His anec dotes were discovered by accident, in man uscript, about forty years ago only ; but they were well ascertained to be genuine. The story referred to appears to be authen tic, and to those who have not yet met with it may be found an interesting addi tion to the stories of "Disappearances" in earlier numbers pf Household Words.— About the year seventeen hundred and six I knew one Mr. Howe, a sensible, well na tured man, possessed of an estate of seven or eight hundred per annum. He married a young lady of good family in the West of England; her maiden name was Mallet; she was agreeable in her person and man ners and proved a very good wife. Seven or eight years after they had been married, he rose one morning very earls:, and told his wife that he was obliged to go to the Tower to transact some particular business. The same day at noon, his wife received a note from him, in which he informed her that he was under the necessity of going to Holland and should probably be absent three weeks or a month. He was absent from her seventeen years; during which time she neither heard from him, or of him. The evening before he returned, whilst she was at supper, and with some of her friends and relations—particularly one Dr. Rose, a physician—who had, married her sister, a billet, without any name subscribed, was delivered to her, in which the writer re quested the favor of her to give him a meeting in the Birdcage Walk, St. James' Park. When she had read the billet, she tossed it to Rose, and said laughing;" you see, brother, as old as I am, I have got a gallant." Rose, who perused the note with more attention, declared it to be Mr. Howe's handwriting. This surprised all the company, and so much affected Mrs. Howe that she fainted away. However, she soon recovered, when it was agreed that Dr. Rose and his wife, with the other gentlemen and ladies who were at 'supper, should attend Mrs. Howe the next evening to the Birdcage Walk. They had not bees there more than five or six minutes, when Mr. Howe came to them; and, after salu ting his friends and embracing his wife, walked home with her and they lived to gether in great harmony from that time to the day of his death. But the-most curious part of my tale re mains to be related. London is the only place in all Europe where a man can find a secure retreat or remain, if he pleases, many years unknown. If he pays, con stantly for his lodging, for his provisions and'for whatsoever else she wants, nobody will ask a question concerning him, or in quire whence he comes, or whither he goes. When Mize. I.:- -. uiey iivea in a nouse ermyn-street, near St. James' ,Church. He went no further than to a lit tle street, in Westminster, where he took a little room, for which he paid six shillings a week ; until changing his name, and dis guising' himself by wearing a black wig, (for he was a fair man,) he remained in this habitation during the whole time of his abseTtee., He had two children by his wife when he separated from her, who were both, living at the time, but they both die d young in a few years after. However, du ring their lives, the second or third year after their father disappeared, Mrs. Howe was obliged to apply for an act of Parlia ment to procure a proper settlement of her husband's estate, and a provision for her self out of it during his absence, as it was uncertain whether he was alive or dead.— This. act he suffered to be solicited and passed, and enjoyed the pleasure of read ing the progress of it in the votes, in a little coffee-house near his lodging, which he frequented. Upon his quitting his house and family in the 'manner I have mentioned, Mrs. Howe imagined, as she could not conceive any other cause for such an elopement, that he contracted a large debt unknown to her, and by that means involved himself in dif ficulties which he could not easily sur mount; and for some days she lived in continual apprehension of demands from creditors, or seizures and executions. But nothing of this kind happened; on the con trary, he did not only leave his estate free and unencumbered, but he paid every tradesman with whom he had any dealings; and upon examining his papers in due time after he was gone, proper receipts and dis charges were found from all persons, wheth= er tradesmen or others, with Avhom he had any manner of transactions, or money con cerns. Mrs. Howe, after the death of her children, thought proper to lessen her fam ily of servants and the expense of her housekeeping, and therefore removed from her house in Jermyn-street to a little house in Brewer-street, near Golden • square.— Just over against her lived one Salt, a corn-chandler. About ten years after his disappearance, Mr. Howe contrived to make acquaintance with Salt; and - at length acquired such a degree of intimacy with him that he usually dined there once or twice a week. From the room in which they ate, it was not dicffiult to look into Mrs. Howe's dining room, where. she gen erally sat and received her company; and Salt (who believed Howe to be a bachelor) frequently recommended •his own wife to him as a suitable match. During the lastsev en years of Howe's absence, he went every Sunday to St. James' Church, and used to sit in Mr. Salt's seat, where he had a view of his wife, but could not easily be seen by her. After he returned hoine, he never would confess even to his most intimate friends, what was the real cause of such singular conduct. Apparently there was none; but whatever it was, he was certainly ashamed to own it. Dr. Rose has often said to me that he believed his brother Howe would never have returned to his wife if the mon ey he took with him, which was supposed to have been one or two thousand pounds, had not been all spent; and he must have been a - good economist, and frugal in his man ner of living, otherwise his money would have scarcely held out; for I imagine he had his whole fortune by him (I mean what he carried away with him) in money or bank bills, and•daily took out of his bag, like the Spaniard in Gil Blas, what was sufficient for his expenses. 'Yes, I have seen him, after his returri, addressing his wife in the language of a bridegroom. And I have been'asiurea by some of her most intinnte friends that he treated her, during the rest of their lives, with the greatest affection. Dr. 'King adds in a note, -that he was well acquainted with Dr. Rose, and also with Salt; that he often met them at Coffee House,nearGolden Square, (Dr. :ging was an active Jacobite, and Dr. Rose was of French connections:) and that they fre quently entertained him with their remark able story; relating these and many oilier particulars which had escaped his memory. From the Bosttot Posit PENNSYLVANIA, AND ONB OF HER OBITOES, I The speech of Hon. John L. Dawson at the great Democratic gathering in Pliila-• delphia on the 4th, was just the thing, for the occasion—fresh; earnest, and happily seizing upon the sympathies engendered by that immortal day. A man who would "get off" a dry disquisition in .Indepen dence square, surrounded by an enthusi astic Democracy, on the 4th of July, could never obtain the thundering applause which greeted Mr. Dawson's effort, and, in our opinion, would not deserve it. On that day the great truths and doctrines of De mocracy may be "fresh remembered," but they should rather be announced, likethe sudden roar of cannon, than elaborate in the tedium of a turbid oratory, playing ike heat lightning in the distance. The resolves passed on the occasion, and which we have published, in accordance with the spirit of freedom, denounced inre ligious intolerance, and all secret, ro scriptive, mysterious organizations, as of in harmony with our republican - syst in; but in speaking to these resolutions, li. Dawson, who is a representative- in eon: gress from a district remote from Philadel phia, forbore any remark which might of fend even one of his audience in that me tropolis, in view of recent political ac'lon. On the contrary, he thus giacefullyl re ferred, in the first place, to the act of con solidation under which the late elecion : "Appropriate for the ay was holden 1 1 1 which hallows in our affection the unio of •States, is a word of congratulation upon the union of your municipalities. Auspieibus of good for your future may be the act of your consolidation !" He then, spoke of Philadelphia as, excepting London,he largest manufacturing city of the WO Id, and as the natural market for the grea est deposits of coal and iron upon the gl e, i , which deposits she reaches by "those ne es of iron," the railroads. Upon those vqins I and arteries of intercourse; .Mr. Daw'on naturally passes out into the CO):11111 n wealth, which he eulogizes like a true . nd loving son. He asks, and scarcely nth exaggeration, - "What find we among her sister Sta es comparable with her ? With a happy i)o -sition in respect to climate, which, while severe enough to impart energy to Or in habitants, is yet mild enough to present Nature ih her most interesting and agree able phases; her landscape presents evsry variety of bauty and grandeur; and wllie ,politically the balance wheel of the confnd , k___ ~.._..._ .______:"..2.a.% 7 ~_. .____.______:"..2.a.% 7 t, t,until CPI the most commanding importance. Her eastern border, washed by the waters of the Delaware, and touching at one extrem ity upon the great lakes; penetrated by the noble Susquehanna and its north and wlest branches, by the Juniata, by the Ate ghany and the Monongahela; her surface a tissue of railways and canals, she holds, at the same time upon the west the keysl of the Mississippi. (Enthusiastic Cheering.) With the finest coal fields in the world, her eastern Atlantic slope has a market limited only by the seaboard, while that upon the west extends to the gulf of Max ico. The Alleghany range which divi es her eastern and western portions, is rea ly a mountain of iron, covered with exliau t less forests of valuable timber, and wh se soil even is richer than a great portion of New England. It is also pertinent to he occasion to remark, that upon these lo ty summits the patriots, casting eyes eastw rd and rejoicing in the commercial greatn ss of the nation, and westward in her a,, •i -cultural wealth, cannot but feel impresqed with the conviction that here, in these iin pregnable fortresses of Nature, the liber ties of his country • will find their last (in trenchments. (Great cheering.) I have referred- to the great lines of In tercommunication between the Delaware and the Ohio. But similar works are ev erywhere in progress. Tunneling the mountains, or following the valleys in their serpentine course, they form, together with the canals, a-complete network intr lacing your - whole Atlantic slope: while the same iron arms are reaching out o wards the lakes to grasp a portion of e trade of those inland seas, br piercing e most distant and inaccessible portions of the State to draw forth from each, to t is great mart, its peculiar products. ((Meals.) But little inferior to New York in square miles of surface—greatly superior• to er in domestic resources—in the character of 1 her population she boasts a similar desce t, and has the same retrospect in revoluti n ary memories. The commonweaith of P• I u inviting to settlement, by its foundation deeds of peace, in charity, tolerance, a brotherhood, not alone the English, Germans of superior character, and the. venturous and enterprising of other E pean States found here a chosen retreat In the words of the lamented bard, wrote so well that he has left us to reg that he wrote so little— "For here the exile met from every clime. And spoke in friendship every distant tongue. Men from the blood of warring Europe spruns Were but divided'by the running brook." And here, -The blue-eyed German changed his sword to pruo hook." The patriotism of this varied populati has demonstrated itself upon many a bloo field. .While Pennsylvania presents. Fort Necessity and Braddock the earli scenes upon which the father of his cot try exhibited his youthful prowess, ker gallant sons crossed the Delaware, thid participated in nearly all the battles of the revolution till its final and triumphant close. (Great cheering.) ' i i This, even as we read it coolly in N w England, sounds like true and hearty e o quence. Addressed to the ears of Pe = sylvani ans, it must have been cxceedinkly effective, giving them a high opinion of he speaker's power, good sense, catholicity and patriotism. They will not fail to chbr class of statl ish his talents, as they applauded his Wor s. Mr. Dawson belongs to the. men whose career of usefulness is not et accomplished, and who have the ambit on 1 to acquire further distinction at the ha ds of their' fellow citezens by contintuld a bors in their behalf. It has everbeen he pride and pleasure of a Democratic•coreiti tuency to advance ,those who, serve th•m with ability and fidelity, las' Mr: - Dam: on has done while in'Congress. He has b • en a zealous and Intiform adveoate of all. he Democratic measures, and has givenPresi 7 dent Pierce and his administration a cor dial support. At home, in Pennsylvania, his services-to the good cause have been rendered without stint, and have met with a generous appreciation. His exertions will not, we trust, be relaxed in the ensu ing campaign, during which the: efforts of every real friend of the Union and the Con stitution will be needed to .withstand the onslaught that is to be made upon Demo cratic principleS and men by the combined factions of lhe opposition. Wishing Mr. Dawson a.ndleiir'fellow Democrats of Penn sylvania the sane success in the ensuing contest which they have hitherto so often won in popular combats with their many headed enemy, we cannot' better close this brief notice than by copying the conclud ing paragraph of his address in Independ ence Square:— We should not suffer it to be forgotten that here, in ;this very city, Franklin found a theatre for the exercise of his extraordinary genius. Here as a printer, he becaine the fabricator of his own fortune; as a patriot he wrote, counselled and struggled for the independence of his country; and here, as a philosopher, he disarmed the lightning. (Cheers) Here Godfrey invented the quad rant by which the mariner, upon the path. less ocean is enabled with accuracy to de termine his•position. Here West taught the canvass to reveal the eye of fire, the form of beauty, and the living landscape. Ilere, upon the waters of the Delaware, Fulton began those experiments in steam which resulted in the perfecting of the greatest of human inventions, (great cheer ing;) whose mighty fruits are now seen in the steamers which are crossing the ocean, defying wind and wave—which are vexing every sea, and threading the rivers of every continent. (And here Rittenhouse found the earth too, limited a sphere for his gen ius, and the glass conducted him to the heavens, where his philosophy had full scope amid ,the splendour of a thousand worlds. (Cheers) Within the city of Phil adelphia—in that ancient and honored building, under the shadow of whose walls this mighty concourse of freemen is now as sembled—American freedom had her birth, [Cheers]; and this is the last spot in the confederacy where that freedom will find a grave. [Great cheering.] True to the constitution and the Union of the states— "sink or swim, live or die, survive or per ish,—she will be the last to yield either." GEORGE: w.
