School of Parson Colo,
BY C. H. WiLEY.
PineidN COLS was an eccentric sort of
character, though a learned divine and an
excellent man. Ile lived in the country.
on his own farm, being a man of substance,
and he'and his amiable wife taught a pri
vate select *wheel for young ladieit The
girls were boarded and lodged by Mr.
Cole at his own house, and in all respects
' treated as ..members .of his own family ;
and as the situation was healthy, and in
sight of the beautirul village of the
school was considered a very desirable
one by those who knew the merits of the
teachers. The number of scholars was
. limited to twenty, and as no kid under
the age of ten years was admitted, and as
those who did come were generally hand
some and well off, the Parson's residence
became a spot consecrated in the imagina
tions of all young men in that region of
country. The Parson's daughters, as they
were, called, were a lively, romping, hap,
py set, and as they walked out in the af
ternoons to gather flowers, they knew they
were observed by watching eyes, but this
did not in the least restrain their gaiety, or
prevent them from indulging in that "fro
lic glee" of which school misses are fond
while their merry voices rung softly and
sweetly over hill and dale. Now, as we
said, the Parson was eccentric ; he had a
place for every thing, it's true, but every
body else thought every thing in the wrong
place. That he might enjoy his books
without the fear of interruption, and in
dulge, at times, in solitary study and holy
I meditation, he had fitted up a chamber in
I one end of his house ; a chanalter.ad Tram
bly suited to the purposes for which it was
designed, being removed from the noisy .
part of the labyrinthian edifice, and ap
proached through long, narrow, dark, and
crooked passages. In this chamber, for
purposes best known to himself, the Par
son kept sonic rare curiosities ; but it is
nut our purpose to give a description hot
or catalogue of these natural and artificial
wonders. Suffice it to say they lent an
air of quaintness to the place, and induced
the servants and others who had been there,
readily to believe that, as Mrs. Cole assert
ed, the chamber was haunted. The good
lady often, at the table and in presence of
her boarders, urged her spouse to fit up a
study somewhere else, bat the old men de
clared that he liked to spend his time
where familiar spirits of another world ,
seemed hind of holding counsel, though he
earnestly urgeil his pupils to obey his in
junctions, and not to venture into a place
where their superstitious fancies might dis
cover the most frightful apparitions. It
became a rule in school, in fact, that no
girl was to visit, on any pretence, the
haunted chamber, and thus as parson Cole
flattered himself, lie could there have ev
ery thing his own way, and enjoy his stu-,
dies uninterrupted.
The parson had a nephew residing in a
distant part of the country, the only son
and heir of an eminent citizen of great
wealth, and a young man famous for his
accomplishments and manly beatity. Of
this youth, whose name was Edward Cole,
every girl in school had often heard, and
the auuouucement that he was shortly to
visit his uncle, created quite a stir and ex-1
citement. There were many hearts that
beat quicker at the intelligence, and there
were some even that already began to feel
a new and tender sensation. Thera was,
for several days, an unusual attention paid
I to the atioriatnent of their persons by par
son Cole's daughters, and , every arrival
Icaused a sudden and violent palpitation.--
I One day the girls got intelligence that a
strange young man had arrived, and as
may be expected, they came to dinnerdres
seal with unusual care, and with hearts
wildly beating; but judge of the disap
pointinent of each, as she entered and was
Lpreseitted to ''a' plainly drvissed young man,
by dig name ofHattry rilliame. He wbs
a modest, simple-hearted lad, but leaped
withal, and won largely on the affections

remarked Susan Standish, ..and in his su

the world. 'I get so sick of his everlasting

nature of mnn, and the chief good, and all
such antiquated stuff. I wonder when
Edward Cole is coming ?"
GETTYSBURG, PA. FRIDAY EV'ENING, FEBRUARY 16, 1849.
"And would you think it," again spoke
Miss Walters, "Ellen Saunders is delight
ed with him!"
" With whom," asked Agnes Thorpe,
the belle of the school ; "not Mr. Cole, I
hope, for / want to see hint first."
"Edward. Cole, indeed," exclaiined
Miss Walters ; "poor Ellen neveraspires 4to
high. She is a meek creature, and listens
to the musty philosophy of Mr. Williams,
as if his words were the sweetest music."
"Yea, and I have observed," said Jane
Anderson, "that she has begun to take un
usual pains with her dress, and that the
sentiments of Mr. Williams haviLalreadi
affected her mind. She will not do what
he thinks is wrong, and what he praises
is her delight. But here comes the love
lorn lassie herself. Ellen, they say you
are in love."
The girl spoken to blushed crimson, and
exclaimed, "What ! / in love ? "
"Yes, you little saint," said Miss Thorpe,
"and all with his holiness Mr.—what's
hie name ►"
" I don't know what you're. talking a
bout," said Ellen quietly ; "you aro all
disposed tojoke; I see, but 111 - foreve you,
for you no doubt do not intend to wound
my feelings."
"Not for the world, dear Ellen," said
Miss Thorpe ; "you're an angel in heart,
and hard indeed would be ours if we could
wantonly hurt the fueling of our gentle sis
ter. But tell me, dearest, what is the
name of this modern Plato we have here.
I never can remember his name ; this sage
boy who is to be Erasmus the secondl"-
"Do yo mean Mr. Williams ?" asked
Ellen meekly.
" That's the man !" cried Agnes—
t.' Phothtm, what a name
To 0111-ell the sounding trump of fame.'"
`" - 1 came to call you all to prayers,"
said Ellen Saunders, "and they are wait
ing for us."
A few days after the above conversation,
the parson put his school into a flutter, by
inliirming his pupils that his nephew would
be at their approaching examination, and
that he intended to give him a party.
" I inform you of this," said Mr. Cole,
" that you may write to-your parents in
time, and be prepared with dresses suited
to the occasion. The party will be on the
first night of May, and you may have a
May Queen, if you choose ; what say
" Agreed ! agreed !" cried all the girls
" And you shall select the Queen," said
several of his pupils to the parson ; " we
might not be able to agree."
" I was thinking," replied the parson,
that we had better have no Queen ; it's an
invidious honor, and might cause imart
burn ings."
The young ladies protested that it should
not, each one declaring that she would be
satisfied with the choice of the parson.
" I cannot distinguish among my child
ren," said thegood old man ; " you are all,
in my eyes, equally fair."
" But then some may be better than o
thers," replied Miss Anderson.
" So they may ; but that's for the world,
not me, to determine," answered the teach-
" Suppose we let your nephew chose,"
said Mrs. Cole.
" Oh, that's the very idea," exclaimed
Miss Agnes - Thorpe, her eyes sparkling
with conscious superiority; " Mr. Cole is
the very man to choose—and he is a stran
ger to us all, he will have no prejudices."
" My nephew would not like the task,"
said Mr. Cole; " tie would not wish to
say that one of you is more handsome than
the rest."
Yee, but father," interposed Miss Ag
nes,'" you know that some are handsomer
than others, and so do we—and I'm sure
I forone will not be offended many choice
ybur nephew tan inake."
Nor I," said Miss Andertion.
"4 , Nor I, tier I," rut In ell the patent

the' parson. The girls iittered, Mr. Wit

" Iffellspoken,"said hint. Cote ; " those
are excellent sentiments, and I hope all
sympathise in. them.",
No doubt all do," said the parson
"but I think I can easily settle the whole
matter to the satisfaction of all. I dislike
to see preferences Made ; You are all hand
soms_enomb, and agreeable enough . we
are none of us as good as we might be. So
that beauty, goodness, or agreeableness,
shall not be the test : the matterothall be
determined partly by 'accident, and in a
way that will give general satisfaction.—
To-morro* morning each one of you shall
go separately inin - theltirden and bring me
a present; and the one . Whose present
most becomes female royalty, shaWbe the
Queen."
„ But who is to determine this t ” asked .
Miss Thorpe.
All due," replied the mitten. 4 , If
we do not all agree, then'the choice shall
be determined in same Mher way. 'you
will find violets, tulips, roses, pinks, hy
acinths. and other flowers in bloom."
'• But suppose that more than one of us
bring the same thing," suggested Ellen
Saunderi.
That you will handly do ; but to pre
vent it, you must each bring a compound
present. You all have studied the same
i botany, and you all therefore attach the
the same language to the same flowers:
hut if you do not, you may each translate
for yourselves."
On the morning appointed, Miss Agnes
Thorpe, who was the find to enter the gar
den, was somewhat startled as she passed
the gate by the question, " Who are, yon
who ere you ? " uttered in a hoarse, linnet'
ural voice glove her head. She cast her
eyes up, and saw sitting among the tangled
vines over the arbor a large green parrot, ,
to whose interrogatory, often repeated, she
made no reply, andeassqd on, still a little
flurried, to cull and" arrange a bouquet
worthy of a queen. Miss Standish was
the next to enter, and she too, like Miss
Thorpe, was alarmed by the strange pore
ter at the gate, nor did she make any re
ply. Indeed every girl that passed was
in her turn,frightened by the strange voice
above her—some, in their agitation, not
even casting their eyes upward to see the
mysterious questioner who vociferously
demanded their names.
The last to enter was Ellen Saunders,
who, when questioned at the gate, instantly
looked up, being more curious than fear
, ful, saying as she did so, "I'm Ellen Saun
ders : who are you I "
the Parson—l'm the. Parson," re
plied the bird, in great glee at finding a po
lite interlocutor: 661'm the Parson—l'm
the Parson, fearing God—fearing God r
who are you? who are you?"
The girl was, astonished, and greatly a
mused at the discourse of the learned bird,
and nearly forgetting her errand, while
filled with a sudden desire for a frolic, she
immediately overhauled his feathered rev
erence—and running into the house,grn
moderately laughing, flung the solemn bird
into the midst of the assembly, at , the same
time asking it who it.was, 'O4 I'm the Parr
son—l'm the Parson," instantly replied ;
the parrot, to the infinite amusement of the
whole' company—the real parson himself,
though somewhat confused, joining in the
laugh,
And what do yOu bring for the

asked Parson Cole.
"'Crown of Love, Crown of Love," re
plied his 'feathered holiness: " Who are
you ? who are you
Adler
,they had ail 'admired, the bird ftir
a while, Parson Cole 'suddenly .turned, to
Ellen, saying, "But, my dear, whPre's
your present for the Queen?"
‘" Indeed," answered Ellen, 4$ I had to

' ''And I know it too," replied the parson,
the tears 'teaming down his cheeks as he
as he took Agnes in his arms : " daughter,
I will say to you as Otto wore mighty and
more holy said to one of your erring sox
'thy 'eine are forgicrea -thee, go and Ito no

There were now other and similar Cott
fessions to be m ade ; the example or At
nes inspired her In9re , timi4 companion s
.
with moral courage, and soon it appeared
that every one except Ellen Saunders had :
taken a peep, into die haunted chamber.
" And how comes it you never trans

" were you afraid of Avitehes and and gbh.
line, or had yOu no ettriosity?"
" I never thought thechamber vise

and though my curiosity liras grmtt, re ?
strained it,' hoping that before I left school
you would let me see thl thsourioses of

ports."'
" And so You' shall . ; yap shall ail look:
now to your h i startir contera,", replied the
parson, who ecconlingly.led his pupils. in
to the Intuited chamber.
All of course were gratified, end dl
were happy; but Ellen only With liVely
relish turned over and examined with in
-creasing delight-the *matii envious relies;
and specimen, of art and nature, , that gave
a strange, mysterious air to . the parsog's
study. ,
"And now," said the parson, after they
had left the haunted chamber," Whom than

" Miss Agnes, of course,' cried Ellett,

They certainly all were; and none more

Tut FOP OUTWITTICD.—tta one of our
country taverns, a few years since, there
happened to be a number of respectable .
farmers clad in the usual habit, when a
spruce young gentleman came in, rigged
in the highest style, with a watch in 'his
pocket, who strutted about the room with
great pomp, dangling his watch, keys mit
seals, in the most foppish manner. After
swaggering about the room fqr a few min
utes, hecried out and challenged any ton in
the room to drop money with him, one piety
et a time, and the man whose parse held
out the longest should take the whole 'and
treat the company. No one appeared
to aceept the challenge, which only tended ,
to'render the fop more inflated withisa
idea'or his superiority in wealth, and he
-became more in earnest. At length a rus;.
ty looking, but shrewd old farmer, °tame
etl,if no one else would accept the ollfer, ,
Would do it. 'lt's done," said-thefop,
and immediately called on the third man
le hold the hat. The farmer then put his
hand in -his pocket and took out , what.he
'called* bungtown copper, and dropped it
in the hat. The fop immediately drop-'
pod in hie second piece, and the fanifei •
-feeling in his pocket for another piece,but
'finding none, gravely observed, .4 us ,
I,have no more; you may take the
whole and treat the company."
