Afterdescribing a tural feast, and the beauty of tha ladies present thereat, the following is recorded as ap unexpected interruption for a tint?, to the festivities. Mounted on a mule which had evidently been de. barred the rights of his tribe to corn and fodder fur a serious length of time, were two beings, certainly of primitive origin --a gay cavalier and a captivating dub cities! TI e charger not exactly caparisoned like a palfrey of the Elizabetheau age, walked deliberately. and we thought at the time, with 'malice aforethough,' up to a decayed pine log, and came to a dead stand. Off trolled the knight in a perfectly "don't care a ti--n" manner, and without carting a glance at the fair one by his side, or giving. her the slightest, mi.. tang in dismounting, be,dretv a bee line for 'has; compment, jumping over every thing that tau* obstruction to his passing ; and singing at the .40p his voice: "Come all ye Virginia galls, And listen to my noise... • - Neverdo ye wed With the Carelinaboys; For if you do Ytlbr portion it shall be Corn cake andhominy, And jansastanga tea; Berreassal a, Mary. Bono eum-aoc," &c. By way of accompaniment he cracked with Infnaira ble grace, a huge whip, which he flourished above his held, and gave a yell that wonld have mut the appro val of a committee of Cumanche braves. • He's some!" said a friend near us, who mt., indul• ging in a caehinatory fit at the strange phenomenon. "The wild man of the woods, for it V!" cried it wog on our right, who had mounted a log to have a clear view of the c ritter. "Two to one he's the feller that butted the bull off the bayou bridge" exclaimed Ben Brower of Snake Cree Our hero heard not, or herded not these coMplimett• tary remarks, but made his way up to the company in fine style. He was indeed un original. His height could not have been less than six feet four, without the shoes or stockings, which he considered escheats app •ndages. He wore a shocking bud hat, with a bete in the top, through which a tuft of red hair found egress, and waved to and fro, like the cap of a corn stalk on a windy day. His coat was of nut-dyer!, home manufacs ture, minus the skirt, which he said he had lost in an encounter with a wild cat he had slain on the road... r — Hi* shirt collar was thrown open, disclosing a breast tanned . .ay the sun of some twenty years, and his ineX pressibles, which appeared to be on had terms with his feet, leaving them about two feet leeward, were hitch ed up on one side with a buckskin brace, giving theln a zigzag rippeatance decidedly unique. Surveying the assemblage for a moment, with the attention he would have given to a- menagerie t f wild beasts, Fie broke for th thus: 1 "Fellers, I'd just like to know if there's a 'squire in these parts?" 'Do you mean the parish judge?' asked an estima ble Citizen, 'Yes, 1 'spore—don't care a pine knot who, so as he can do the thing,' replied the stranger, giving his whip a peculiar crack. 'What may be your business, friend?' inquired a .. demure 'sovereign' in the crowd. - •Nothin' much no how,' replied the modern Nimrod. 'I only wants the feller that can harness me and that gal on old Rattler, yonder. She's just the loudest gal I reckon in the settlement—as slick as a peeled =Tie', and as clear grit as it skinned taterrolled in the sand; and I'm called a whole team and a big deg under the wagon, I've snaked it about these woods for a week, looking for a 'squire to hitch u:; and wore out a pair of deerskin britches looking for him; and I wiahl may be rammed through a gum tree head-foremost, if I'm going to pack Suze any fu.ther. 1 came bete to yoke her, and hero I'm ageing to stay.' The roar of laughter that followed this simple re cital was deafening. We lost four buttons in convul sive fits, and it is quite probable we should have suf fered largely in that lino, hnd not the parish judge &- rived at that "moment, and given a new turn to affairs!. The judge, as all our readers know, is supPoserl by many lobe of Gallic descent although we have anthoti ty for saying that he is 'native to the manor born.' Unlike the great poet's justice. "In frit- round belly with good capon lined; - With - eyes severe, and beard of formal cuts" • .jull of, wise saws and modern instances." ~ he is as lean as a Graltamite, living entirely on bran pudding and fricasseed radishes. With the undying zeal of an Israelite, he thunders .forth anathemas a gainst:four-footed animals, and considers ornithology a fit alterly for cannibals. Theirs ere the sentiments of the judge, albeit in po litics he strangely enough "goes the whole hog." At one time we learn he was an expounderof the Meth odist faith, and traversed the country in company with the devout, end, exemplary Father Redwine. This may account for the serious cast of countenance pecu liar to him. On the present occasion he was dressed in the height of the fashion. He wore a "west of England" invisiblegreen coat, the collarof which was perpendicular and corded a la collegitfia, giving the wearer quite a magirerial appearance. His cash mere vestwas buttoned close up to hie chin, over the top of n hieh protruded an enormous pair of jot whiz kers,such as are worn by brigands, whom sensitive young ladies hold in such high esteem. His pants. loons, of fancy stripe, were neatly strapped to a pair of patent leather boots; and French kids encased his small, delicate hands, in which he held the license that was to bind together "two willing hearts." The judge now proceeded to business, calling on the gay Lothario We have imperfectly described, to "trot out" his bride." "You're tae man for my yeller quarter," said °tube r() in ecstacio3, and away ho went in a run for "Strut." With one tiffort of his brawney arm, be took het from the mule ifird brought her to the centre of an enclosure formed by the company, his eye dilating and his whole frame exhibiting signs ofjny unspeakable. The bride was a bouncing prairie beauty on whom time had smil ed in his rapid course. She wore a blue calico dress, lull iu every part, thus permitting .-. "Every grace ... To rim a race " • IA string of blue beads ornamented a good subatoothil neck—none of your . 'swan-like" I hings—and het. head.- gear was a cotton handkerchief with scarlet writs* and yellow ground-work, tied gracefully under the chin, and concealing the Outten curls that struggied for lib erty. Her ‘hoes might have given your ry..cherchtsfash ionable ladies the hysterics, but they united cornfart and durability and effectually closed the doorio , that fell destroyer, consumption. In the hurry of the air meat, doubtless, she made an invidious distinction be tween those necessary appendages claatticallrealled 'insect destroyers," one of which lacked the Lt.lun;lmok —hut this was an omission, not a fault.. Iferbbseisye, as it rested on the chosen ono, spoke eloquently of abi ding love, and her handsome face was wreathed in smiles. The judge glanced at the paper in hi., hand, arida en in a solemn impressive tone demanded of the groove 'Will vou take Susan Jenkins as your lawful lr ad ded wire?' host, I reckoirr will I a•ould'nt have rid since daylight aid packed her kern, if I did'nt nr ito to do the elean ansyseP , d our hero.
