i From TimeB. l
JOINING THE MORMONS.
The author of eubjuwcd letters (says P. Pod.
hammer,) was my old and intimate friend. At
an early period in existence we used to go to
school together, play truant together, and get
flogged together. At a more recent period, dar
ing my absence from town, we maintained a
correspondence, of which I hero give a portion.
From the time when he first wore whiskers,
my friend bore the undesirable reputation of a
male flirt. This was the result of a reprehensi
ble and incorrigible propensity he had to amuse
himself by contracting matrimonial engagements,
the very number of which would have prevented
his consummating any of them. The reader
may here learn its consequences.
These letters being private and confidential, I
should communicate their contents to no one,
reader, except a person of your well know se •
oresy and discretion. You will, of course, not
mention them, oven to your most intimate friends.
With regard to the lesson they convey, I must
say with the late S. N. Pepper, " morvt/s obvis."
LETTER I
- NEW YOWL, FEB. 1866.
MY DEAB, PODHAEBBER: In this letter, I have.
as usual, to annoumoe to you, that I am engag
ed, and this time, net to one only. Three divini
ties—with different fascinations indeed, but all
equally irresistible—are tugging at different
portions of my too assailable heart. I think
that the organ must be made of Indian rubber
or it would have long ago have gone to pieces.
Know the circumstances, before you judge me.
Soon after I wrote you before, I met Annie
Dobbs at a party, in the Fifth Avenue. You
know my admiratian of the beautiful. Annie
was beautiful—angelic! Oh! Pod, such ring
lets 1 such cheeks such eyes ! such brows !
such lips I such dimples I such teeth such a
neck! such shoulders 1 such a style 1 such etc.,
etc., etc.
For a full description of the divine Annie, I
refer you to the most popular sensation novels.
All of them together would fail to de justice to
the charms that met my eye as I gazed upon her.
Of course I need not tell you that I exerted
myself to produce an impression on this fair
creature ; nor need I tell you that I succeeded.
You know the power of fascination that sits en
throned in my gray eyes, and in my munstaohe,
which latter has been much improved by dyeing,
since last you saw me. You know how the ladies
will fall in love with me, and how difficult it is
for me to be cruel to them. You will not be sur
prised, then, to learn that within a fortnight
from that evening, Annie Dobbs and I were en
gaged.
One morning, not long after, I chanced to call
on my friend, Mrs. Grigehaw. I had taken my
seat in the parlor to await her coming, when my
attention was attracted by music in an adjoining
room. It was such music as seraphic hands
might elicit from a piano of celestial manufac
ture. Thalberg might in vain try to imitate it.
Presently a voice, which evidently belonged to
the seraphic performer, began an aria from Bel-
Hui. The tone and execution were marvellous.
The most fastidious critic, under the stimulus of
a pusonal pique, could not have withheld his
unqfialified and unpaid for approbation. Could
that voice have been heard in the Academy of
Music, during regular opera or matinee, Fres
zolini would have hung her diminished head,
D'Angri would (I fear) have been aogry, and
Lagrange would have taken a ‘, bona fide" de
parture for Europe, not waiting even for another
farewell benefit or coronation. I fancied myself
seated in a private box in the heavens, while the
prima donna of the Milky Way was executing a
solo in the Music of the Spheres.
The mush) ceased. Mrs. Grigehaw entered the
room. Behind her I heard the rustle of silk and
crinoline, and was conscious of the presence of
the divine cantatrice. Mrs. G. presented me
her niece, Fannie, just returned from Italy.
Fannie and I talked music for half an hour.
Fannie sung and played for another half hour.
Oh ! Pod, what transports were mine
You are aware of my musical accomplishment.
Day after day, Fannie and I played and Bang to
gether. The chord of our hearts became attuned
io unison, and gave forth responsive chords.
Need I tell you the rest? During the perform
ance of a duet, we somehow became engaged.
Soon after, I happened in at one of Mrs. Geo.
ghull's receptions—literary affairs, you know.
There was a collection of authoresses, with all
the floral and vegetable names in the botanical
vocabulary. Among these flowers stalked a
number of literary lions, with shabby coats and
untrimmed manes—each a Great Unknown, des
tined to astonish the world home day and eolipbe
Shakspeare.
The star of this gifted assemblage was Miss
Sallie Lobkins alias Lavinia Lavender, the cele
brated poetess. I can convey to you but a faint
idea of that bewitching female 3 Although not
beautiful in the vulgar sense of the word, she
has the resistless charm of intense intellectuali
ty. Her blue eyes sparkle with inspiration.
I lost no time in procuring an introduction, and
addressed her a common place observation about
the weather.
She replied with a quotation from Tennyson,
I responded with a stanza from Byron.
She repeated some stanzas of her own oompo—
I answered by reciting a poem of my own com
position.
In a glow of inspiration, she turned her lus
trous orb ceiling-ward, and recited a poem in:.

I am going to ask you a question," she
whispered:. "Will you promise to answer ma.

I promised.

scarcely heeding my negative. "Reis my beau,

I am thus equally the slave of Annie's beauty,

Man POD:—.I have become involved in two.
more engagements.
The first of these—don't laugh sit, me—te with
a charming widow of thirty. summers. I will
not attempt a fall length portrait of her. I may
sum up her most engaging qualities In the one
word—experience. •Oh t Pod, what a host of
graces, which exist but in embryo In young un
married ladies, are beheld in full bleom in an
accomplished widow.
How bewitchingly she makes love to you ? She
first proposes to be your aunt. In this confiden
tial relationship she now and then favors you ,
with touching recitals of her past trials, expe
riences and heart history. How you sympathise
with her and long to console her I And when
she says she never—no, never—can love again,
what an unaccountable pang her words cause
you I She knows a thousand ingenious ways to
flatter you and convince you that none but she
can make you happy. She occasionally affeota
to lecture you with a grave, motherly air, wear.

look.
At length you are surprised to find yourself, Y.
if under some spell, holding the little jeweled
hand, which she knows so well how to display,
and beseeching her to alter her matrimontal in
tentions in your behalf. This alteration she les,
after due hesitation, prevailed upon to make.
Believe me, Pod, there's nothing like being made
love to by a widow.
Such, at least, has been my experience with,
thecfasoinating Mrs. Nellie Bellealr.
