FOOI Florence Keed was the little and Julia Willis, her cousin, it fool, was who called her so. You can judge between them if you like : it is a story that will not take lonp; in the telling. Florence or Florry, for nobody ever dreamed of calling her anything else Florry Head was not in the least what one would call a beauty; but then she had the softest eyes aud the sweetest lips in the world. Some thing at least to that effect Charley Iennis Lad been heard to declare, and it is very much to be believed that he Fpokc as one who should know on this subject. The two had been lovers for quite a while; lovers in tho bud, as one may say, aud everybody knows tb.U the bud is the sweetest part of the whole blossom seasun. The practical, common-place staure'of 'declaration had j not yet been reached ; it was the time ot broken hints and secret nana pres sures, of stolen kisses and general felicity. Florry walked on air, and forgot that it was not her native ele ment, tiil one unlucky day the clouds melted under her feet, and 1ft her down to earth again with a rude thump. It was the day of a celebration given in Ulackville to commemorate some event perfectly uninteresting to the world at large, but of the very last importance in the eyes of the IJIackviliiaus. For, though Ulack vilie was a little place, its inhabitants were men and women very much like other people, and measured the uni verse on the Elackville yard stick after the orthodox and proper fash ion. The festivity, beginning with an oration, ended with a Die nic in a grove just outside the town, a mag- 'nificcut maple grove, whose violet- ! scented solitude it was almost a sin :to iirot'aiie with the clattering of hardware and the popping of ginger beer eoiks. Charley Dennis and Florrv were there together, as ihev were together every w here. I'ut un Lyitunately for Florrv, Miss Adela 15reut was there also. This voung lady was not lluck- vilieboru. hhecame from a much argertowu, a town which would have turned up Us nose very high iudced at poor little IMaekville, had j it happened to be aware of its cxis- .. .. , , tellce at all. 1' or WhlCU reason the niackVlUiaUS naturally looked With admiring awe upon it and all that i m:.j .1. 1., . i pertained to u. Mi.s Adela, then, being a visitor just arrrived among . , , , - thelll, her tli but was an event Second ioiily to the great event commemorat- , td b" the daV. She Was not prettier . than half their own girls there j.res ent, b .t she was wholy unlike them iu dress and style; in a ord, fehe was something new ; and if novelty is one of the greatest of all charms anywhere, it certainly is not the least so in a small country town where a wholesome fear of his neighbor Lolds each in decent restraint. So all eyes vcre fastened on the stranger, when, at a rather late hour, she made Ler appearance on the ground, which in nowise discomposed her. She settled herself aud Ler flounces, gave a final toss to the fiizzy wilderness sur mounting her little Lead, and, turn ing back Ler fan-parasol, looked around her with much the air with j which a traveler, siianded among ; savages, might observe their barbar j ous customs. i The tirt of the natives on whom her glauces chanced to rest, were Florry and Charley, and the vouch safed them a prolonged examination, under which Florry's eyes fell and her color rose; whereupon Adela, who had already mentally inventori ed her as pretty, but deplorably with out style, regarded her anew, with amused compassion, as a girl who could actuallv lihi.-h for being looked at! Charley did not blush, thou. h. On the contrary, he returned the gaze with one that might Lave abash ed souio girls. Hut Miss Hrcnt was a young lady not easily abashed, and if the very evideut admiration in the handsome savage black eyes afTectetl her in any way, it was certainly neither to embarrass nor onend her. That vas plain, from the manner in which she received his advances ! later ; else the two would uot have made so rapid an acquaintance, nor havo been missing when, bv-and-bv, a strol through the grove was pro nosed, so that Florry was obliged to put up with the escort ot Ler cousin Fred Willis, a necessity considerably more agreeable to him than to her. Oli, what a cloudy ending for a day that Lad begun all sunsbine! Florry wondered piteously, when, the festival at an end, they drove i back through the evening together, U-otild this lie the same Charley, w ho, Jon that very road, only a few Lours ' before, had said well, it was not so I much v7ta Lc said a the way, and ; especially the look, with which he ! had said, could this be the same, I this abstracted individual w ho had to keep rousing himself out of some revery' over w bat ? The charma of Miss Adela Vviit? V'orry greatly fyared it. Yes, that was it. New brooms sweep clean, and Miss Adda's flounces and frizzes Lad swept set ESTABLISIIED, 1852 PA., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3. 1874. Charley quite away from Lis moor- ingft. In a wci-k, she coultl turn Lim round her little finper; in another, he had bo completely deserted ' the soft- est eyes and sweetest lip?," as if that aud niuny alike speech hiil been iiutj empty air. If Florence had been a heroine, she would probably have broken her heart; have taken to writing poetry and reducing her weight at the rate of a pound a day. Hut then she was not a bit of a heroine; an army of little brothers an. sisters to attend to loft her no time for poetry-writing, while lilackville, although as before stated, an insignificant place, had a bracing mountain air which forced people to eat in spite of themselves. So Florry, occupied with small frocks and stocking-, did not lose her pretty color or roundness, and il there was sometimes tears in the "softest eyes," and sighs on the "sweete.-t lips," why, that is only what is happening every dov to eyes and lips that are neither soft nor sweet. No, Florry had no notion of sitting for a picture" of despair. She had a stout little heart of her own, as brave as it was warm, and whatever the trial, she "grinned and bore it," inetanhoricallv speaking. Nature, in bestowing on her a pair of dimples, having put the grin sardonic out of her power. It was very hard, very provoking, very cruel of Charley, no doubt, but still it was Charley, and she was not going t make an outcry against him. 1 hat was Hur ry's way of looking ai It; mere u.e such people now and then in this med ley of a world. "Hut her cousin Julia, Fred Willis's sister, w as quite 01 anoiuei mum. Julia was a vouog lady wno nan opinions and liked to speak them. She considered that Charley Pennis was behaving himself in a weak, wicked, and altogether disgraceful hidi Florry was bound to resent ; and this quite apart from her pet plaoi of making a match between her cousin anit ner oroiuer, ior uun., if prejudiced, was honest. o sue had no mercy tor tnc iruaiu (.uunn, abusing him as often and as openly na Klnrrv'a reserve would allow, till one day "the barrier broke down, audi let the full tide of ber wrath sweep over. Fred was describing a party of the previous evening, at which neither of the girls had been present. "I suppose Ihot Miss Hrcnt was there as large as life?" said Julia, w hose habit it was to use the pronoun of censure in referring to Adela. "Yes, she was there," answered Fred, and laughed to himself fur a moment Then aloud, "The fool Cbarlev Dennis makes of himself with tliat girl!" he said. "And what he can sec in Ler." ex claimed Julia. "She's no beauty, certainlw" "Ob.'ns to that, she's rretty enough," said her brother-masculine and feminine eves are so apt 10 see this matter differently-" but as out- and-out a little flirt as ever 1 saw.

Hut the moment Fred was gone, she indemnified herself for this loreed clemency. She pounced down on Florry, and never left her till she had worried her into tears and confession. Then she paused, half in triumph, half in pity. "Now, don't be a goose, ! lorry, she said, soothingly, tapping the bit of flushed cheek not hidden in the elasned hands, "if there ever was a mau worth crying about, I'm sure it isn't CLarley Dennis." Florry made no reply to this, but she lifted her bend and set some stitches rather blindly in the embroi dered frock on her lap. Hut it is lucky that Master Harry, for whom it was destined, was not a connois seur in fine needle-work, else it is to be feared that that cotton rose-spray would have been a thorn in his side so long as any thing remained ol it.

It is a very common rural custom "to improve the shining hours" of the full moon, not, indeed, as "doth the little busy bee," but after a fashion quite as agreeable, if less industrious.

Now, the Hlackvillo moon being just at nrt.cnt at the full, a jolifieation of this sort Lad been arranged for the morrow evening, and Charley a;coid-. ingly took an early opportunity to make sure of Miss Adela Hrent. Hut, if tho truth must be told, Miss .dela wos growing rather tired of this rustic homage Add to which, that Ler own particular "young man" kad jvtst came frorn lown a ace Ler, and it will easily be perceived that Charley's ckanciys were not bo good as ho fondly imagined. The pair stood in tho porch, watching him as he ' approached, and indulging in 7. com monts whicL, if tLcre be nay i truth in proverlis, fchould hare malo his vara tingle. "Oh ! it is us Father Noah intends , huiiorino; with a vi'it," remarked Mr. alter lliiiinton, when Lharley'a "ark," as the other had irreverently dubbed his carriage, drew up before the gate. "Am I to leave you to a IrU-i-M,; Adela?" "Oh, for mercy sake no !" answered Adela, "or he is such a bore" (poor Charley!) "ho would stay forever!" So Charley waited in vain for Mr Wilmington to go and give him a chance to make known his errand. At last, it became evident that he did not intend going, and Charley could in decency wait no longer, he opened the subject with an introductory" re mark on the fineness of the weather. "(iood weather fur green things," nonchalantly observed Mr. Wilming ton, with a glance that Charley easi ly understood. " Especially the carrot crop," return ed Charley, with an equally intelligi ble look at his new acquaintance's petfumed luxurient locks, which un doubtedly did bear on the auburn. After which little exchange of civili ties, Mr. Wilmington retired into the privacy ol his segar-smoke, and j Charley proceeded to make his re- quest. "Well, I don't know," replied Miss Adela, languidly playing with her fan, "i hit sort of thing is so apt to be tiresobie ion't yon think so?" Charley, who certainly had not thought she found that or any other sort of thing tiresome in his company, remained speechless, while she re sumed, "I am afraid you really must excuse me this time but I dare say, Mr. Dennis, Miss Florence Wells would be happy to go if you asked her." The blood rushed to Charley's face at this last piece of politeuess'and he took leave of the young lady, inward ly vowing that he would excuse her uot only for that, but for all future time ; that if she were to remain the rest of her natural life in Hlackville, she should be troubled with no more tiresome attentions from him. "Florry. indeed!" he said to him- self, indignantly "She may sneer : 1: she likes but si kes but she is not one-half so nice as Florry and take away the frizzes aud flounces, I do believe not one-half so pretty!" He really did believe it, none the less that it was wounded vanity which hail opened his eyes to the perception. Ann, witn all his an;er and mortification, there was mingled an odd sense of relief, which would seem to indicate that he was nothing deeper than his fancy which had leen taken by Miss Hrent. "What if I were to n-A- I'l.irrr" uis reueciious went on. "Uniy it is so long since I've been near her. Hut, then, she's such a sweet-tempered little thing. I've half a mind to risk it. And the end of it was that he did risk it; and that was how he came to give Julio- Willis occasion to quote a very unflattering old proverb on ins beiialt. And now, as he Las waited at the gate quite long enough, we will let him in, and see how he fared within doors. It was an absurdly constrained in terview. .Neither I lorry nor Charley felt equal to bearing the burden of the conversation. Julia could have done it well enough, if she had chosen, but she would not. So there was mean ingless remarks, interposed with pauses longer than the code of well- regulated society admits. "It is quite a while siuce I was here," blundered Cbarlev after one of these, in sheer despair of anything better to say. "I wonder what you are here for now?" retorted Julia, unable longer to keep silence, while Florry stitched for dear life. Charley could not very well answer the truth, and, not knowing what l'lse to answer, held his tongue. Jul ia, however, had no scruples to hold hers, which, moreover, at the best ot times was apt to be an unruly mem ber, so she said in her downright way. "I suppose that Miss Hrent has had enough of you, and given you leave to remember old acquaintances at last." This hit the case so exactly, that it left Charley without a single word to say for himslf. Perceiving which, Julia laughed in scornful triumph, and, rising from her seat, added iron ically. "It is hard to have to lose the pleasure of your society now that it has grown such a rarity, but I have an engagement, so I hope you will excuse me." With which parting squib, and a whisper in passing "lie firm, Florry!" she left the room. And wecannotdo better than follow her. Having proceeded to fulfill her en gagement the rummaging of a chest of drawers, up-stairs .Julia who guessed Charley's errand well enough, waited for him to make it known and be gone. Hut never, surley, Lad a simple proposal for a drive taken such a while in the asking and refus ing! Exactly how long she bad to wait, Julia eould not say, but a very long time, indeed, measured by her patience. Just as the last thread of that was giving way, she heard the outside door close, and, flyiug to the window, saw Charley Iennis' head bobbing in and out between the tall hollyhock borders. In less time than it takes to tell it, she was down in the parlor, where she fouud Florry still stitching away, as if the comple tion of six-year-old Harry's frock was the-oue thing'for which the whole universe was waiting. "Ah!" said Julia, exultingly, as sho advanced, "revenge i sweet, let the moralists say what they like! I haven't seen you, I don't know when, with such a nice color. Well, I hope you've sent Mr. Charley Den nis propperly about his buisness?" "N no," said Florry, with an in creas of tho nice color. "No!" repeated Julia, looking dobtfully at her, "what do you mean by 'No ?' What Lave you done, then never promise-tl tJ go with him surely ?" "I I've promised to marry him,'' answered Florry, in a voice between laugbing and crying. Julia dropped into the nearest scat "Well, you are a little fool !" said she, when she could find ber tongue era Was she uot ? Hut then, you see, sho loved him ; a poor excuse, no doubt; but the only one ber historian can find to offer in her defense. V"i I'ii', Aldine fur May. The fchillook of the White Mle The Shillook tribe inhabits the en tire bank of the White Nile, occunving a territory about two Lundred miles Ion? and about ten miles wide and which extend to the mouth of the Gazelle Hivcr. This territory is densely populated. After the subjection of the Shillooks to the Vrrrnlinn (Invprnmerit n census WHS ."'?' - taken, wnteu restuieu in un i-nuiuuic of about 1,200,001) souls. These Shillooks are the first tribe of wild savages which Dr. Schweinfurth en counters. As his boat neared the landing of the first village a great crowd of naked creatures swarmed together to meet him. The first sight of a throng of savages sud lenly pre senting themselves in their complete nudity must make a very strange im pression upon the traveler fresh frorn the civalization of Europe.

These savages are accustomed to plaster their bodies with ashes as a protection against insects, which gives them a thoroughly diabolical aspect. The movements of their lean, bony limbs are so languid, and j their repose so perfect, that whoever! comes as a novice among mem can hardly resist the impression that in rrazin? at these ash-rrrav forms he is looking upon smouldering corpses rather than upon living bcinzs. The only conception the Shillooks entertain of a higher existence is lim ited to their reverence for a certain hero, who is called the father of their race, and who is supposed to have conducted them to the land which they at present occunv. In case cf famine, or in order that they may have rain, or that they may reap a good harvest, they call upon him by name. They imagine of the dead that they are lingering among the living, and still attendthem; they cherish old traditions, and venerate the memory of their ances tors with all the fervor that more civ ilized nations be.tow upon their relig ious belief. At Fashoda, a small town provid ed with a garrison for the mainte nance of Egyptian power, Pr. Schweinfurth stopped several days in order to complete his store of pro visions, and also to await the arrival of several boats, which were to ac company him to the Gazelle Hiver. He improved the time by making short excursion inland, and by watch ing the customs of the Shillooks. The Egyptian governor of this por tion of the Shillook country appears to be a complete sovereign, regulating not only the public but also the pri vate affairs of Lis subjects. One day a young girl, abashed and dejected came to him, and with her speech half choked with emotion, she be sought him to interpose Lis autLority to set aside the obstacles which her parents threw in the way of her com pleting her marriage engagement with a young Shillook, whose name was Yod. The hinderance to the wedding was simply the fact that the young man possessed no cattle pos session of cattle among Shillooks as well as among Pinkas being the sole distinction between rich and poor. The governor inquired whether Yod was not at least the owner of a few cows. Her reply wa?, "No, Yod Las no cows; but Yod wants me, and I want Yod." Hut though she urged Ler point with much earnestness and with many tears beseeching the gov ernor to pronounce in Ler favor, as Lis judgment would constrain ber parents, he persisted in upholding pa rental authority and the custom of the country. The girl kept saying "we must" and "we will;" the judge could speak only of bullocks. There seemed to be not settling the matter, when he said, "You must go and wait, wait tiil Yod has bullocks enoujrh to satisfy vour parents." Hnllocks or dollars it is all the same story ; and in this one phase of family life the parents of the poor Shillook savage and those born to all the ad vantages of civilization and culture play the same part.

As the season of the year is ap proaching when the custom of bath ing is most popular, we deem it advi sable to throw cut a few bints on the subject. Though it should be prac tised the year round, yet it has its periodical fits, like marbles among boys, Loops among girls, and Louse Lunting among the heads of families. Hathing, like eating and drinking, is an old, old custom. It is not un unlikcly that Adam and Pve tried its virtue before they went out of the garden. At any rate, when they were expelled they both took a bath in tears. Sorrow almost invaria riablr resorts to that method of com fort. ' Homer sings of the bath as a ven erable institution in his early day. Anciently it was the first refreshment offered to a guest Nowadays we proffer a warmer meal, a glass of cold water, or some "hot stuff." The pub. lie baths of Greece and Home were many and magnificient. They were as common as the days of Antonius, Plocietiao, and some other Emperors, as liquor shops are in American cit ies.
