JOURNAL, NERAL ADVERTISER. ,Select gate. From Godey's Lady's Book for August A STORY OP 'TEE "LIPPER TEN." Jereiniab Crouit considered himself one of the "upper ten thousand." And so he was, as far as a brown stone palace in Fifth .Aiecue, and the reputation of being worth half a million. were,coo cerned.. Everybody who wrote to him put Esq. after his name, but that did not make him a gen tleman by • great deal. Jeremiah Crook *tested in lira as a soap and candle manufacturer, in which business he contin ued even after his elevation into •• good society." At first the dipping and, moulding processes were conducted on a small scale, while a single cart for the collection of ashes and oleaginous matter, pro ved quite sufficient to 'supply the demand for these indispensible articles in the pradtt_tirrt of either hard or soft soap. But honest industry, prudence, and economy, met, in his case, their reward.— Jeremiah prospered in his business, and continued to prosper until he became a rich•man. industry. prudence, and economy aro 'very com mendable virtues, though by no means cardinal virmes. By this remark, do not understand us to disparage industry, prUdence, and economy ; they are virtues that all men should practice; but while these are practiced, weightier things should not be, as alas! they are at present; almost eatirely ne glected. We grow rich in this world's goods, but poor in the heart's better riches. Trieir bodies they lift above their fellows, while their minds too often, below instead of maintaining the level with which they sot out in life. This is a melancholy but undeniable fact. fn the case of Jeremiah, as his coffers began to fill up, he began to think himself a better men. He had always maintained that he was as good is any nabob in the land, but now he began to think himself something better than men who stood at the level upon which he stood a few years before. And as money kept pouring in, his self. estimation kept rising. The wife of Jeremiah Crouk was a plain semi ble woman. She loved her children well enough to find in the care of them, sufficient to do to keep her mind healthily employed; she was not, there- *core, much troubled with newly acquired ideas of self-importance. The growing consequence of bar husband had some trouble, at times, to carry such an appendage is a sensible wife with it.— The two oldest doughters Amanda and Margaret, were only a little way in 'their "teens" when,iheil , " father'■ ideas in regard to things of a personal Intl .family nature began to be eornewhat expansive. He became all at once concerned about the best schools, and had them removed from a seminary ■t which they were most-carefully instructed in all the useful anti ornamental branches of a young lady's education, and sent to a ••butter" institution —that is , one at which were cmgreg'ated the chil dren of fashionable people. Neither Amanda or Margaret liked the change; nor were they bent. fitted by it. Amanda, especially, soon began to acquire notions a little different from what she had been in the habit of maintaining,, and to con , eider the fact of her father being rich as giving her consequence. Margaret, who was younger, was more like her mother, and therefore less 'apt to have her bead turned with what she saw and hoard in the new world into which this change hail in. 'reduced her; but even she took an unnatural growth in this sickly atinnsphere—nut so muse, however, alto produce a very apparent moral 'nation. Even after she hod completed her edu- cation, she remained a very sensible gal.—vulgar . ly so in some respects, according to the judgment ' direr more fashionable arqueintances. ' ' About the time there young ladies were ready to come out. their father had finished his splendid residence in fifth Avenge, and was ready to take his place among the upper ten thousand. He had built a large manufactory away up on the Wand, that theodor of his soap works might not taint the city, atmosphere or remind people that he was but a soap and candle maker after all. He had save. ral times thought of giving up his extensive works and. edgaging in 8..4110 new business, but some thing of the prudence of old times remained, and kept him back from committing this folly. Ai soon as Mr. Crook had taken possession of his new home at the Court End of the town, he iseeed invitations for a large party, and went to a thousand dollars expense to have it all upon the most grand and fashionable scale. Fur old ac quaintance sake, as well as to let them see how largeand fashionable he had grown, Mr. Crook invited sundry individuals not fairly entitled to es. social° with the upper ten. On the night of the grand affair, much, to his mortification, he found himself with but few representatives of th 3 "ten thousand" in his magnificent drawing-rooms, and a hill attendance, to the man, woman and (laugh ter, of the plebeian herd, who were invited more outof compliment thao anything else. And what added to his chagrin, was the fact that only a email number of those Who had not come, deigned even to send their "regrets ;" Bird also the fact that two or three of the -families, after arriving tind seeing the seines and daughters of vulgar people there, withdrew-without facing 'called upon 'to offer a word of anology. But Mi.. Crook, who felt himself as good as the best and better than many hundreds of thon-tende around him, was not to be killed off in this way. He was one of the •upper ten' and no mistake, and they were bound to acknowledge him—end so they did in the end. Money and style were the passports, and he saint made his peers feel that his claims were not to be lightly , esteemed. In this of Jeremiah Crobk for a place in the ranks of the exclusive few, his wife and daughters did not as warmly second him as he couhl wish, although there was no opposition.— The mother's good sense impressed itself as a na tural consequence, upon the minds of Atriandii and Margaret, and her right views, uttered on all fitting occasions, found an echo in their minds. They saw deeper, even as young girls, than the glittering surface, and understood true Irstipiners was rather quiet and unobtrusive than brilliant and imposing in its mein. With the full liberty of dressing in• the most costly and stylish manner, they rather suffered their taste to beguided by that of their mother, and were on most occasions, at. tractive rather from their want of elaborate orna ment than on account of its opposite. The con sequence was that even among the "rapper ten,‘• Amanda and Margaret were general favorites.— Their title to the place they held beirig undiputed, nu one of course could question, for any want of the usual insignia the _feet that they were of the exclusive., and, therefore, that which in others would hive been thought exceedingly vulgar, wan spontaneously acknowledged to be charmingly simple and attractive in them. But these two strong indcations of • low origin' seriously disturbed rho father, who wee forever 'complaining of the want of style in the dress of his 'daughters, and the want of dignity in their man ners.. What he-could do, was always done. He never permitted.theas to go to the opera without private box could be obtained; and when he could have a word to say about the. toilet arrangements, insisted upon a proper use of ornament, especially of rich jewelry. Tne privatebox at the opera was not objected to very strongly by the girls; it was pleasant Ind comfortable to be separated front the crowd, to tie exempt from really vulgar contact and the sundry annoyances that all most suffer even in the most fashionable audiences. Still it was petting them apart in a -manner, not altogether agreeable to their feelings, and it would have been ,less so if they had been aware that they were pret ty generally known by the theatre -going public and remarked ' -upon as two of the - "upper ten" So much fur, the position and pretensions of Jere- miah Crook and family. The two,aistera wore not withotit theiradmirers 'among, the young men of their own circle'. ae well as some who stood on the cowls, yet dared to cast'upon them ambitious eyes. Spite of their want of ostentation in dress, and the entire absence • of eriatheratic airs; let them appear in company when they would, they soon hail a group of mind- Mrs about them. This fact greatly - surprised young ladies who Wire seoriatious of being far more-bed lianf,:and.'-as they imagined, more lughWattracf. - But young Men havei a greater; Tracy for looking a little timer than theuutside when.they hill at all inclined to pay scrums 'attention to yohog ladisto'ir;l: - .1. ‘. • ; :Amanda i land t many wooers, and it, vraa- riot ry long before her heart was won, end ; liy . , a, lorei against whom her father mild Ming no manlier albite:lion; Asa naan,it is pleasant to Do ibis Br T. S. Aitkar to Say, he was worthy of her hand. But the heart of Margaret, to all appearances, remained unimpressed, although many attracted by her for tune, or native excellences,or both, sought an alli ance. The addresses of one young men in par ticular were encouraged by her father, but Marga ret maintained towards him -a cold but polite re., serve. He was never able to approach her near enough to ark her the. all-important question. • All at once, and without any apparent cause for so doing, Margaret assumed a still mots simple styled( dress. At home.= abroad. in public places I - or in private assemblies, she appeared with scarce. ly any ornament on her person. Evfry article of jewelry was laid aside, and, all rich or attractive ' colors avoided. Her father remonstrated, but in vain ; ho sternly ordered a compliance with his wishes, but with no better effect,and La was finally constrained to let,the "wilful girl" have her own way. To the eyes of most of her friends, Marge. ret appeared none the lea; attractive on account of this change, her extreme neatness and, good taste making ap for. all deficiencies.. Instead of the number of her lovers being duniniahed, they were incrensed,but her heart remained antouched.‘, This singular freak, as it was considered by her family, was continued by Margaret rnare than a year, during which she withdrew tierself from corn pony as much' as it was possible 10 her to do. and appeared to . take More delight in dOrneatic employ ment than in faehionablo pleature;taking. Mr..Crouk Was troubled: he Saw in this eel dences of a vulgar mind, and indications' of a per verted , and grovelling ta•de. , Thus the time passed on. and Amanda's wed; ding-day approachix , . 'But Margaret repulsed all euitors—actually refusing•to see your ' , men who had at anY time made even the innallest.advances.
