SAXE Some years ago, when I was young, And Mrs. Jones was Aliss Delaney ; When wedlock’s canopy was hung With curtains from the loom of fancy ; I used to paint myifuturo life With most poetical precision— My special wouder of a wife ; My happy days; my nights Elysian. I saw a lady, rather small, Ji'No was my strict abhorrenoe,) With flaxen hair, contrived to fall In careless ringlets, a la Lawrence; A blond complexion ; eyes that drew From autumn clouds tbeir azure brightness; The foot of Venus; arms whose hue Was perfect in its milky whiteness ! I saw a party, quite select.— There might have been a baker’s dozen; A parson of the ruling sect; A bride’s maid, ami a city cousin ; A formal speech to me and mine, (Its meaning I could scafte discover;) A taste of cake; a sip of wine; Some kissing—and the scene was over I saw a baby—one—no more ; A cherub pictured, rather faintly, Jleside a pallid dame who wore A countenance extremely saintly. 1 saw —but nothing could I hear, Except the softest prat tic*, may be— The merest breath upon the ear So quiet was that blessed baby ! I see a womun, rather tall. And own. a comely lady Complexion—such as I must call (To be exact) a little shady ; A hand not handsome, yet confessed A generous one for love or pity ; A nimble fool, and—neatly dressed In JXo. s—extremely pretty. I sec a group of boys and girls Assembled round the knee paternal With ruddy cheeks and tangled curls, And manners not at all supernal. And one has reached a manly size; And one a.-pires to woman’s stature And one is quite a recent prize, And all abound in human naturo ! The boys are hard to keep in trim ; The girls are often very trying; The baby—like the cherubim— Seems very fond of steady crying ! And yet the precious little one, His mother's dear, despotic master, Is worth a thousand babies, done In Parian or alabaster ! And oft that stately darno .and I, When laughing o'er our early dreaming, And marking, as the years go by, How idle was our youthful scheming, Confess the wiser power that knew How care each earthly joy enhances, And gave us blessings rich and true, And better far than all our fancies! A LOVING GIIIL IN A PET Well, let him go, or let him stay! 1 do not mean to die ! I guess he’ll find that I can live Without him, if I try ! Ho thought to frighten mo with frowns, 80 terrible and black— He’ll stay away a thousand years Before 1 ask him back ! Ho said that 1 had acted wrong, Aod foolishly besido; I won’t forgive him after that— I wouldn’t, if X died ! If I was wrong, what right had ho To bo cross with mo ? I know I’m not an angel quite— I don’t protend to be. • Ho had auothor sweotheart once, And now, whon wo fall out, Ho always says sho was not cross, And that she didn’t pout. It is enough to vex a saint! It’s moro than 1 can bear! I wish that girl of bis was— Well, 1 don’t caro where ! He thinks that sho was protty, too— Was beautiful as good; I wonder if she’d get him back Again, now, if she could? I know she would—and there she is She lives almost in sight, And now it’s after nine o'clock— Perhaps ho’s there to-night! I’d almost writo to him to come— But, then, I’ve said I won’t! I do not care so much —but —she Shan’t have him, if I don’t! Bosides. I know that i was wrong, And ho was in tho right; I guess I’ll tell him so ; and thon— I wish he'd come to-night ! A STORY OF A GARTER. Just at four o’clock one dazzling after noon last February, two young persons, opposite tenders, took sudden possession of a neat sluigii, muffled themselves to gether in a manner intended to secure as far as possible the double advantage of comforting protection and engaging ap pearance, and, after judicious settlement of skirts and robes on the one hand, and hat and furs on the other, darted off, along the smooth and shining roads of Winston. Clear and still, and not at all chilling, was the atmosphere. The sun shed all its splendor from a cloudless sky, and the spotless earth radiantly reflected its glit tering beams. The two sleighers with whom we have to do agreed without de bate that no other day so favorable for their excursion could have been selected, and in turn went into spasms of rhetorical excitement over the glories of Winter—in its present cheering aspect. Not having accustomed themselves to the assiduous study of Nature, they failed to exactly interpret certain omens which might otherwise have interfered with their innocent enthusiasm. Of course neither had noticed, the right before, the broad circle of luminous haze that surrounded the moon, giving warning of approaohing disorder above. Of course neither con sidered, as they dashed along heeding only their own pleasan: fancies, the light clouds which rapidly rising, soon overspread the southern heaven, and gradually threatened to obscure the declining sun. What need had they to anticipate the possible inter-- ruption of their sport 1 None, certainly. Their aim was pleas ure. Lucy Brandon, niuoteen, daintily beau tiful, and coquettish by unconquerable' feminine instinct, filled the hearts of. the youth of Winston, above all, those hearts gathered within the institution for the wholesale manufacture of clergymen for which Winston is celebrated, with fine frenzies. The secular youth swore • she was an angel. The students, whose destiny was theological, did not swear, but, after in vestigating the subject, and finding that angels-were sometimes imperfect and falli ble, proclaimed * her divine, and in their orisons remembered her. In this way they satisfied all the condi tions of their college life Inside the walls they were divinity students ; outside, they-were students of divinity. In confidence it may be revealed that Miss Lucy’s highest attributes were in fact of a mortal order. She was not a bit of an angel; but she was what is much bet ter for the purpose of this world—a charm ing girl, with beauty enough to wind golden ohains around susceptible young hearts, and wit enough to fasten them with glistening clasps whenever she chose. At the same time, she was as amiable as could fairly be expected of a spirited young wo man who ruled a subservient seminary with a rod more rigid than any of the pro fessors could wield; she was, with all her frolicsome coquetry, as discreet as a dowa ger, and she was not destitute of good sense, a powerful proof of which was that she never wrote her name Lucie. Never theless, it is a melancholy truth that many of the maidens of Winston persistently re- = fused to recognize those infatuating quali ties whi h by the ruder creatures w re unanimously accorded to her. After a considerable period of supreme sway, Miss Brandou at length sigln-J, Alexander-wise, for something to conquer. 1 She fell in with Mr. Henry (so uliris- 1 tened, but popularly denominated Harry) ; Langford, a fine young fellow with no theo logical aspirations, who had come up to 1 Winston to look aftersome long neglected 1 relations. Clever and well-dressed, and with a heavenly curl to his hair, be inter ested Miss Brandou, who forthwith smiled upon him,' and baited her flirtation-books j with mosfc delicate fascinations. With u j shade of surprise, she observed that her | intended victim succeeded in reaping the | full benefit of the baits, and yet refused to be caught. Upon this, she became shy, and he commenced a promiscuous assault upon t lie affections of every available young woman encountered. As soon as it was evident that they understood each other, they began to laugh. Consultation followed. From laughing at one another they turned to laughing at Miss Brandon’s troop of suppliant admirers. I am sorry to say' that the young lady betrayed confi dence. She told him how one especially devout adorer was continually quoting Scriptural puffs to..her; and how another, of entomological turn of mind, would in sist on comparing to new aud exquisite specimens of bugs. Then he told her, quite maliciously,Jiow precarious her rule was, and cruelly likeued her position to that of a keeper in a luuatio asylum, whose strength lies in his confidence that his subordinates, having lost their wits, possess no power of combination among themselves to defeat his plans. Occasion ally Miss Brandon was a little tart; some •times Mr. Langford was a little rude ; but they usually kept within amicable bouuds, and were understood to be excellent friends —nothing more ! Not one of Miss Lucy’s devotees ever thought it worth while to look upon Harry Langford with eyes of green indignation. He was in no degree rapturous about her ; she often snubbed him. An infintesimal quarrel between them had onoe beeu de tected. Besides, he was not a resident, only a visitor, whose opportunities were thus limited. Moreover it is a fact that no two persons were more profoundly convinced of their absolute indifference to one another than Miss Brandou and Mr. Langford them selves. They hud given much private thought to the subject, (there was the dauger !) and had satisfied themselves that they were, as every body understood, excellent frieuds —nothing more ! Nevertheless it happened that Mr. Lang ford was suddenly overcome by a sense of shame at his want of family feeling iu so long neglecting his Winston relations.— So he endeavored to repair old errors by frequent visits, and established an exten sive acquaintance in the neighborhood.— He grew fond of sooial gaieties. He cul tivated all Winston. At every important gathering he was made welcome. At last the winter came, and every body knows how delightful the winter is in a New England country town, where tho thermometer never by any excess of tation gets more than an occasional degree or so above the 0 ; where frozen noses are to be met with at every corner, and are deemed neither uncommon nor unornamen tal, while frozen toes are accepted almost in the light of a luxury; where ice cream is indissolubly associated with breakfast, and where for many months life is but a perpetual shiver. Mr. Langford, anxious to experience all these joys, came up to Winston in the middle of February to re main two' days, bringing with him bag gage sufficient for three weeks, to which term, after much inter-exchange of en treaty and expostulation, he was induced to extend his visit. The first time he met Miss Brandon, he' tempted her with the suggestion of a sleigh-ride. Said he, 4 A sleigh-ride in winter is seldom amiss,’ and was there upon sharply criticised for admitting the possibility of such a thing at any other season. However, Miss Brandon con sented. See would ride with him the next afternoon. In the morning Mr. Henry Langford gravely inspected the family stable, but found nothing therein equal to his own idea of the magnitude of the oocasion. At the public stable he was more, successful. At first he contemplated the luxurious magnificence of a span, but an irresistible impulse subsequently induced him to scttlo upon a single courser. (One horse may be driven with one hand !) It is difficult to imagine what impelled him to seek with such pertinacity as he did for the narrow est sleigh in the collection. At four o’clock, P. M., the light-hearted young pair dashed away, as full of good-natured glee as the sleigh was full of Jthem—and they fitted very compactly. Miss Brandon, knowing the country more intimately than her companion, undertook to point their way, a manner of proceeding quite agree able, in view of the male creature’s total ignorance of localities. They glided on, turning hither-and thither, until ere long they left the clustering cottages of Winston quite a distanoe behind. For a while both chattered and laughed with a vigor that put them into a precious glow ; but by and-by Mr. Henry stopped short, in an unaccountable manner, and left Miss Lucy to do the declamation, contenting himself with watching the sparkle of her eye, or the pretty curve of her lip, as she threw out incessant little smart sprinkles of feminine wit. Presently he observed with wonder a faint suspicion of a flutter tremb ling through him, and attributed it to their rapid motion, recollecting similar sensa tions in earlier youth, caused by swinging. He must have expressed something odd in his countenance, for, of a sudden, Miss Luoy cut short her fun, and subsided into a dim oblivious tranquility. Just one minute after, it flashed upon Mr. Henry Langford, that he Lad for the past six months been steadily and uninterruptedly oooupiod in making a muff of himself; “ THAT COUNTRY IS THE MOST PROSPEROUS WHERE LABOR COMMANDS THE GREATEST REWARD.”—BUCHANAN. LANCASTER CITY, PA., TUESDAY MORNING, NOYEMBER 1, 1859. that the notion of 4 excellent friendship,’ so far as he aud Lucy Brandon was con cerned was utterly absurd aud degrading to think upon ; that the truth was he loved her dearly, and that he ought to have known it long, and should, if he had ever before been alone with her, as he now found himself. Having settled all to his own satisfaction, be took courage and a bold step. 4 Miss Lucy ’ (rather shakily) are you comfortable ?’ 4 Oh, perfectly.’ 4 Not cold V 4 No, indeed.’ Now what he wanted was, that she should say she wa3 cold, and be considered him self a little ili-use'd because she did not. But he would not be bereft of his idea ; so gathering reins in one hand, he cautiously disembarrassed the other, and sweeping his arm around the back of the sleigh, caused that vagrant member to encircle the bis bundle of buffalo bandages which confined the gentle form beside him. Not a word of remonstrance, but a silence dangerously ominous, if he had kuown it. Incoherently mumbling a repetition of the inquiry concerning comfort, etc., he per mitted the arm to venture upon a faint suggestion of a squeeze. This time the little face, now sadly flushed, came round square upon him, and disconcerted him horribly. But with desperate impudence he remarked quite careles.-dy, ami looking earnestly at a point in the road at the distance of half-a-mile ahead — 4 Please shut, your eyes a minute.’ Down weut the lids. T 7 The calm was over. First came a torrent of reproaches, very limited m -duration, but’ of crushing weight; then an intrusive little tear, which had better stayed away ; then a dead silence. Mr. Henry Langford was sorely afflicted. 4 lf she did not want me to kiss her,’ thought he, 4 then why did she shut her eyes V As he could make nothing of it, he endeavored to effect pacification, but all encouraging response was withheld. Hardly a word was vouchsafed him, and the few he got were by no means of a character to till him with rapture. In the midst of his anxious argument, there came a cry from the side road. Harr) pulled up, and saw a melancholy looking woman, not well clad, not strongly framed, standing with a child in her arms. She asked how far it was to Linville. 4 How tar to Linville, Miss Brandon V inquired Harry, iu blissful ignorance. 4 Four miles ’ —(rather pettishly.) The woman of melancholy mien further more desired to know the direction. Was it straight on I 4 Yes 7 —(stiff aad short.) The lugubrious female murmured a thank and the sleigh moved off. Iu about a minute Mr. Langford clutched the reins savagely, and uttered an exclamation which would have satisfied any listener of his innocence of theological tendencies. Miss Lucy emitted a high D, head register, staccato. 4 1 think lam a brute,’ quietly remarked Mr. Ileury Langford. Miss Brandon now assumed an air of resignation, as if expecting an apologetic explanation of the recent rudeness. She was disappointed, and when the sleigh began to turn about, became perplexed. ‘The woman is going to Linville, wherever that is. She mustn’t walk four miles through the snow this weather. And loaded down with a big baby too !’ Miss Brandon gave out symptoms of uneasiness. 4 You are not going all the way to Linville,’ said she. 4 Certainly I am, Miss Brandon ’ —and he drew up beside the pedestrian of aspect. 4 1 do not see as there is room,’ said Miss Brandon, ungraciously; and the poor woman shrank back at the words. Harry’s eyes flashed in a. very uncivil! manner, I am afraid, as he said roughly, 4 We will make room,’ springing out at the moment, and hurriedly lifting the lachry mose traveler and her child into his place. Then, without a word, he quartered himself upon a seotion of the sleigh’s floor, and and drovp ahead. In a little while Miss Brandon said, softly— 4 l think there is room up here Mr. Langford.’ r . 4 1 am very -’well down here,’ he answered ; and then, in a low voice, lean ing over towards her— 4 1 could not have thought, Miss Brandon, that you would transfer any part of the resentment you felt toward me to this unoffending and unfortunate person.’ Lucy began jto cry, but this new phenomenon escaped his • notice. The woman of woeful countenance, who heard nothing, but saw everything, sat on thorns. Now here was a most unhappy misunder standing, for Miss Lucy really deserved better of this good-natured, but too hasty young knighoerrant. T4ie fact was, that just at the moment when the pedestrian episode began to interfere, she had discovered that she was not irreconcilably offeuded, after all, and was longing for an opportunity to give a fraction of a hint to that effect. Having, after much waver ing, heroically resolved to do this unfemi nine thing, she was naturally disturbed by the interruption. So the cause of her pique was not at all uufiattcring to her cavalier. Presently she bent forward, and said timidly, but with inexpressible sweetness : 4 Won’t you forgive me, Mr. Langford V Harry looked quickly up, and saw one .tear glistening on the end of her nose, and another threatening to freeze upon her cheek. He pushed back something that came uninvited into his throat and sang out lustily : — 4 Come now, it is cold here, and I must have a share of the buffaloes!’ —and he clambered in, without much dis turbing the solemn-visaged passenger. Lucy got up a small laugh. Before they reached Linville it was six o’clock, and growing dark. A few snow flakes, scarcely noticed, rested upon the horse’s back. Five minutes more, and they had deposited their passenger at her destination. She flung out a profusion of thanks, flavored by a tear. The reconcil ed twain started homeward, each a little doubtful as to the exact condition of the other’s temper. Preliminarily, they con versed upon very remote topics—agreed that as Linville was eight miles from Winston, they had about eight miles to overcome ; and that as it was already late, it would probably be later before they reached home. The increasing snow fur nished a new subject, and. this very soon acquired a positive interest, as it steadily gained strength. In a little while gnsts of wind came surging along, keen and icy, and impudently whirling the light snow into the faces of the homeward-bound.— With any other companion, Mr. Harry Langford would have said disagreeable things. Miss Brandon acknowledged to herself that if she were now under the guidance of any of her professed devotees, there might be words as bitter as the wind. When they were fonr miles from Win ston, they came to a sudden turn in the road. The new snow had drifted here, and the way was difficult to pass. At a touch of the whip, the horse plunged for ward and—a trace snapped ! This was seridus. Langford sprang out, and discovered that the difficulty might be temporarily arranged by splicing. For this he needed twine. Together they searched the sleigh, but ftund no consola tion there. Ten cheerless minutes passed. Harry tried a expedients, all unsuc cessful. What should bb done 1 'There were no houses near. It was becoming very dark. At last he proposed, not without hesi tation, to draw the sleigh to the side of the road, to wrap his feir charge in irnpenj etrable folds, and to start off on foot in search of twine. At this point all trouble vanished in an instant. In a faint voice Miss Lucy unex pectedly chirped forth from her pile of buffalo robes— 4 Will this do 1 ?’ and instantly hid herself from human view. She had let fall something upon the snow that lay like a half-coiled blue snake. In answer to her frightened question she was informed that it 'did. Harry, laughing himself to pieces internally, but superfici ally solemn and calm, repaired damages, resumed his place, and drove cautiously onward. After a while he said— 4 Think, now, Miss Luoy, of a woman walking to Linville in this tempest.’ Lucy looked appealingly into his face, and gave signals of great distress. 4 You are cold,’ be said ; and as she wa9 silent, he took it for granted that she was ! ! As,they passed through the long avenue to Mr. Brandon’s house, an eleotric exper iment took place, without the same explo sive result as before. The next evening there was a sewing circle in Winston. A sewing-circle is a popular needle-and-tbrpad assemblage at which flannels and reputations are pitilessly punctured ; at which under-garments for infants and scandal-cloaks for adults are manufactured, and all made to fit. The duties of the occasion having been worried through early in the evening, the mascu line element was suffered to mingle socially and the sport began. Mr. Henry Lang ford was admitted with the rest of the thitherto excluded. He looked mischie vously at the centre of attraction. The centre of attraction smiled at him, and folded its front upper teeth over its lower lip. Lid you ever notice what a depth and variety of meaning is conveyed by that very curious contortion of the female face? It signifies amazement, amusement, grief, anger, reflection, —almost anything, ac cording to the will of the exhibitor. This time it meant remonstrance and exhortation. A divinity student was talking very loudly about the Atlantic cable, and des canting upon the ingenuity of mau. Mr. Langford asserted that the ingenu ity of man bore no comparison to the ingenuity of woman ; and proposed to substantiate his position by a slight nar ration, and a simple apparatus he had in his pocket. From the centre of attraction there came again a high D, head register, this time staccatissimo. Miss Brandon broke recklessly from her circle, spilling all 'Sorts of work-box treasures as she ran.— Spools, needles, pins, bodkins, scissors, hooks were scattered- around in inextri cable confusion. ‘ Harry, give it me,’ she pleaded -very softly—< please do, dear Harry.’ The 1 dear ’ was of at least ten seconds’ duration. Long before the prominent vowel was exhausted, Harry Langford was a lost man. ‘ There it is,’ he said, ‘ and what shall I have in return V (All this very softly.) ‘ Everything ’ —(more softly still, but with a smile that was better than a dozen orations.) In the course of a week, the youth of Winston heard something that took away its appetite. It considered that its confi dence had been abused. It regarded Mr. Henry Langford as an intruder who had exceeded the privileges extended by hos pitality. A little while after this, in the course of a retrospective conversation, Miss Bran don made the following-mysterious remark, with all the extravagant emphasis peculiar to young ladies : 4 Nothing of the sort, Harry. It was horribly old-fashioned, and it was the merest accident in the world ! !’ It seems there are ever so many morals in this story, notwithstanding it is ao short, and so true—for it is true, every word, excepting only the names of persons and places. There is a moral of youthful society, a moral of humanity, a moral of feminine apparel, and some more, all of which it is very pleasant to reflect upon, since none of them were intended. But I shall not take the trouble to point them out. CARDS. SAMUEL H. REYNOLDS, Attorney at Law. Office.
