"r E DANGERS OF FLIRTATION
BY J. T. TROWBRIDGE
"The world would hardly be worth liv.
leg in if it, were not for flirtation," exclaim.
ed the gay and thoughtless Isabel Lee, as
she laughingly enter() I her aunt's room .
"I hope you are not serious.," she said.
"There's nothing like flirtation," cried
the merry Isabel. "But you look reproach
ful—angry,---"
"Oh, I am sot angry," replied Mrs. Bet ,
ford, with a melancholy smile.
"But you are displeased."
"Your words recall recollections which
cause me to feel sad, Isabel ; that's all.—
Sit down here by my side, and you shall
hear a story of one of my flrtationa, which
may change your mind."
Isabel sat down, looking thoughtful, and
her aunt continued—
"When I was young like you, dear child,
I was quite as guy and thoughtless as your
self. I was called a coquette, and, I shame
to confess it, gloried in the name—until
the occurrence of the painful event am
about to relate.
"Half a dozen times a year,l used to via
it C— and spend a week in the pleasant
society of our friends in that place. There
i frequently mot a pale, handsome, sensi
tive young man named Gilborne, who paid
me' very flattering attentions, making me
the theme of several poetic effusions, and
with whose partiality I was very well pleas
ed.
"1 was warned by many well meaning
friends against encouraging the addresses
of so impulsive a person as Gilborne, who
they said was more serious than I, and
who might end by falling more deeply in
love with me than I expected or desired.
I laughed at the idea; and finding the at
tentions of the young pout still agreeable, I
continued to receive them until it was too
late."
"Too late I how so, aunt 7"
1 4 Why, to my astonishment, he one
day made a passionate delsration of love
And offered UN Ma hand."
"Aud you did not love him ?"
"No, child. Imes merely pleased with
him. But even thou I did not suppose
that, was more than the resift of a sudden

log the most passionate devotion, and burn
ing with the eloquence of love. They
bore no name but I knew they were from
Henry Gilborne. But I woe beginning
to be very much annoyed.,A-took
eel with my friends and tived to send
all future epistles back to him unopened
I returned two letters in this manner, and
received uo more, but three or four meets
after I received a newspaper, in which
there was a sonnet addressed to me under
a fictitious name, and signed with his ini.
dais. He had discovered a new mode of
reaching me with his passionate effusions ;
and from that time a sonnet or song sign-'
ed "H. G—." came to me in the C
Gazette nearly every week.
"At this time Ur. Berford was paying
me his addresses ; ho was ono of nature's
noblemen—frank, generous, km in what
ho considered right ; and a gentleman in
his manners. Having learned a 'lesson
from the unhappy termination of my last
flirtation, I received Mr. Buford's atten
tions in a different manner from what I
had been accustomed to do, and in a short
time wo were married."
The ceremony took place in a church.—
I loved Mr. Berford. Unborn° was at the
moment quite forgotten, and I was perfect
ly happy. I bad not a thought to disturb
my peace of mind—the , calm repose of
my heart, which I bad so willingly, gladly
given away—until, as we were parsing from
the church, my eyes fell upon a wild, hag
gard figure, near the door.
"It was GilLorue I Ilia face was dread
fully pale, hir lips ashy, his eye gleamed
with unnatural brightness, and he trvit.-
bled in every limb. I stoned, uttered a
suppressed cry, and, shuddering, clung to
my husband's ann. A pang went_through
toy heart—a pang of remorse and' dread
' which I shall ewer forget."
"What's the matter ?" Edward asked
I could not reply. But ho !item my eyes
fixed upon the haggard object in the door
way, and knew why I shuddered, for I had
told him of my unfortunate flirtation."
"Is that Gilborns ?" he asked.
"Ves," I murmured.
'• By this time all eyes were fixed on the
wretched nitin. It was not his Rile faec
and wild eyes alone that attracted at
tention ; his dtik,„ was dkarranzed, his
long dark hair CT in disordered halo a
bout his checks and his garnients were cov
ered with dust of travel. i But while all
eyes were fixed on hint, his' were fixed on
we alone ; and in my alarm and confu
sion, I felt the blood forsake my cheeks,
then burn in them like fire.
"Gilborne fell hack as we approached the
door, and bowed solemnly with his hand
on his heart as we posed out. I wa4 glad
to lose sight of him, and lardently hoped
his passion would be cured.
"But his haw, tube stood there in the
door-way, haunted my brain, and it was
many hours before I could compose my
' self.
"I was begioniag, however, to feel at
ease again in the midst of our wedding
guoste, when a demeatio came to rue to
say that a person wished to see me in
the hall. Thinking it was some invited
friend who had arrived at a late hour, I
hastened to the door alone. Imagine my
consternation who I saw the wild figure
of Qilborne standing before me.
"How do you do 1" he asked, addressing
me by my maiden name, "Won't you shako
hands with me V"
I gave him my hand.
"You tremble," mid he, fixing his wild
eyes upon my face. "You aro not afraid
of me, I hope."
"Oh, no," I replied in an agitated voice
—for his strange manner frightened we.
"Why should Ibe afraid 1 Come in."
"No..thank you ; you have company, I
soe---and I make one guest too many.—
And you see I am not dressed for a party,"
said he, glancing at his disordered attire.
"So you will excuse me. Ha I ha !

"But I cannot talk to you here," said 1.
"Oh, I will not detain you a minute.—

GETTYSBURG, PA., FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 25, 1853.
I much frightened to speak. In my agita•
tion I took bold of the bell wire and rang.
A domestic came, acid I sent her for Mr.
Berford I
"Berford! who is be l'" cried Gilborne,
grasping my atm. "They told me that
Iwas the name of your husband l Say—

"Yes, Mr. Glilborne," I replied trem
bling so I could hardly speak. "I am
married and hero is my husband."
To my great relief I saw Mr. Berford
advance into the ball. Gilborno started
back, fixable eyes upon my husband with
'a wild and tierce expression, which caused
me to fear for him.
But Edward was undaunted. Returning
ailborne's gaze with a firm, steady, com
manding look, be advanced towards him,
and demanded what he wanted.

and I heard his unsteady footsteps die a
way in the (distance.
"Poor wretch," murmured Edward, as
be kindly took my hand, "he is to be piti
ed ! But you are agitated. I hope," ho
added, in an anxious tone, "you have noth
ing to blame yourself for in this matter.
"I wish I had not," I exclaimed ftrvent
ly.,'"But oh, Edward, I feel that I have
acted wrong—although heaven knows, I
never intended he should love me."
"Weil do not reproach yourself too
severely," he replied in a mournful voice.
"Let us go back to the parlor, and forget
what has taken place."
"We returned together, and Edward's
presence alone sustained me for the rest
of the evening. Fear, pity, and remorse,
madelny heart faint and my cheek pale,
and I was wretched."
"1 think I understand your feeling,"
said Isabel, who hail listened with deep in
terest. "I know how I should have felt
under a conviction that any thoughilm
iiess of mine had ruined a fiik)w being's
happiness—perhaps had shattered his in

"Listen. Ho disappeared. For more
than u year he was absent, and nobody
knew what had become of him.
"A thin, haggard youth, lie wandered
about the country, begging his bread fmot

the touching songs which lie sang in a soft,
melancholy voice, and the musical tones of

he played with peculiar feeling and skill.
Everybody treated him kindly, for al•
though ho was evidently of an insane
mind, there was a mildness—a melancholy
enthusiasm about him which won all
hearts.
"Search was made for him. His friends
were not mistaken in their suspicions.—
Ha was the wandering Gilborno!"
"Uh, aunt !" exclaimed Isabel, tears
filling her eyes.
"They carried him back to C—.—

One chilly, rainy day, I wan sitting
alone in my room, amusing myself with
my first child—then about six months old
—when there was a ring at the door. Our
domestic bud gone out, and, there being no
body in the house but me, I left little Ella
playing on the floor, and I wont to open the
door.
I started back with an exclamation of
alarm. Gilborne, drenched with the cell
rain, was standing on the steps.
My first impulse was of fear, and I
would have shut the door in his face, had
he not looked up to me, and said in a utel-
unchnly voice—
“lt rains. May I come in ?”
I was touched. I held the door open as
he entered. There was a fire in the sitting
room, and I made him set down before it
to dry his LI For ten minutes not a
word wits spoken by either of us ; but Ilia
will oyes followed me about the room

definable dread, and oh ! how ardently I
longed to hear,the footsteps of Edward in
the hall. I tried to speak to the wretched
man, but for some reason I could not ; and
his eyes still followed toe in silence.
At length, to my dismay, I beard Ella ,
crying in the next room. Gilborns
started.
"Is that your child 1" he asked.
1 trembled as I replied that it was.—
Turning deadly, pale, he started from his
scat, and approached the room whence the

floor.
When I reoovered my menses, I saw him
bending over my darling Ella, as she lay
on thi'rug, gazing up with baby wonder in
his face. With a ory. of terror I sprang
forward. Ile raised his hand. There was

child.
He kissed her, and rising from his knees,
begged my pardon in a son and melancholy
voice, and words so delicate and touching
that I burst into tears. Before I cold
speak ho was gone.
"How singular !" exclaimed Isabel.
From that day Gilboedo's insanity die
appeared. He is now a minister in C—.
"Is that the man, the pions, benevolent,

The same. He turned to heaven the

flirtations, I am pined by the reflections

"But they seldom have span melancholy

Isabel.
"True. Disappointments in lore gen

ter to the Galena Advertiser, written from

are brie fly , given, which make up a sad pied
ture of Western adventure:—J. C. Mord
-on, of Taiuwell county, arrived safely in
Oregon. Their teams gave out 500 wiles
this side of their destination. They loft
their oxen and those who had families, end
started down the Lewis river on the beds of
their wagons; end out of twenty young wen
so embarked, only four ever got ashore alive,
so rapid was the stream and ro full of rocks:
The four having escaped, started through
an uninhabited country, with but little pro.
visions and few clothes. They arrived at
the settlement at last, after passing through
trials and dangers beyond the power of
tongue or pen to describe.

have been engaged to be married for two years,
but since which period they have never
been out limbo at the same time, though
each has been at liberty some twenty times.
The damsel serves out the term of her in
carooration, but before her lover is also free,
she is re-arrested as a vagrant and sent
back. And thus also with the swain ; when
free he gots to pondering over the delights
of connubial felicity, takes , a "snifter," or
two from an excess of joy, gets drunk and
is- returned to the lock-up. They both now
almost despair of being - out together long
enough to be married.
