TILE 11 ISC LILA NV. From the New England Review TIIIIMAN WITH THE MUSTACHIOS. It was a warm Saturday afternoon in Au gust that a horseman turned up to the inn which fronts the steepleless meeting house of a small village in the interior of New England. As usual, in the warm Saluda) , afternoons of summer, the male portion of the villagers were assembled at the tavern : 7 --- z sowe drinking punch like water, and oth ers the "regular old soakers" discussing the merits of pure.s.New England." Some were stretched out half asleep, and if the truth must be told, hall' intoxicated, under the shade of two venerable elms which overlook ed the "highway in frontOf the inn, and cult ers were seated in the window seats of the bar room, gravely arguing upon matters spiritual and political. But the unusual appearance of the stran ger roused every one in the attitude of cu riosity. lie, was mounted on an elegant horse, and as he reined up in it graceful manlier betbre the door, every eye was turn lip Was sonic hat tall, with a diminutive wlaiSt, which would have an swered4:t :A; to the similitude of Falstall l ---"an eagle's talon"—and legs of most inordinate length, fiunished - with a close ; covering of _light-eloth—looking - tbr - all - the'weTld";like: a coujile of ox-goads with eel-skins drawn over t hem, I [is dark frock was finely con- Fasted with his yLosoin. ornamented with pearl studs and glittering salbty chains. A broad -stock of silk. de,: voted his chin to an angle of forty-live de grees, and supported a collar ()finical, starch ed to the stitllieNs of sheet iron, and which protruded'on each side of his. chin like the limn of a rhinocerdS. Ilbote a huge pair of whiskers extended froin car to.car, with the trilling exception of a square inch or two of his chin, over which the tonsorial implement had evidOtly recently passed. His Upper lip was garnislicd by enormous mustachios, which bristled fiercely upward, iuul covered ajnoiety °faller cheek. 11 is hat was most extpusitely small, cone like, and pitched wittradmirable elfect upon the left side of his head, while tinge Masses of', hair, tumbled up carelessly at templesd were left wholly unciiveied. • The stranger dismouikted and entered the inn without deigning a glance to tile right or left. "lle's a Spaniard or Portuguese," said one in it low whisper to his companions —"Look at his beard," said another. ""011,. what legs," said a third. One after anoth er of the loungers gave in their opinion, and none could a(r.ree as to the precise char- . acter of the walking phenomencur, - Leroy° them. An old sailor -insisted that he was a Turkish bashaw—while an itinerant Preach er as strenuously afliiined that - the bpifig who had appeared' questionable / shape" was none other than the famous Lo renzo Dow.. • _._ • , The- stranger had in the Mean timeyeach ed tho' centre of-thet bar room. .a,glass , looked -round foi the. first time upon the company.. ‘.‘Landlord," said he, 'show ma my ,roen,ritnti let inc haVe stippet: • - Slipper is jost tcady," said die lanti lortlL-"will you tali,ein seat- with - 'Nu of mutifacl* and whisker took, otl . his 'hal, .-141•A;ihreiltdi hr hair-, • • . . .. . . GETTYSBURG, TUESDAY, JULY 5, 1831, until it stood out as wildly as the locks .of a LaphindVindstealer.' "Sir!" said he, "I am a crentleman, and I choose to eat alone— damme if I don't:" And he looked around on- the company With the most sovereign contempt. otu is tilere was_,A' G o illsnolo _ appea l, r and .tne man Oli.whisketli was shown to his apartment, and supper was prepared agreea bly to his directions. The waiting quid' was none other than the fair daughter of the innkeeper, a girl in her seventeentiLyear, with a bri ,, ht black. eye, and dark natural . ringlets falling over her plump shoulders. The whiskered gentleman us the bright lie ho seated herself at the table to wait upon his gastronomic operations, stared at her for some time..with the_most .provokinwassuf. ance. The girl blushed up to the shadow of her ringlets. • "Curse me," said the gentleman at length, "but you are a devilish. handsome girl." The fair waiter blushed yet deeper—and tried to smile away her contusion. Luckily for her the substantial -Eire of the table at that monan it caught the eye of her admirer, and completely occupied all his faculties for the next half hour. The supper finished, the stranger arose, strutted to the glass, pinched his dic:kev, and twisted his mustachios into a 'gill fiercer erect ion. "Ila, my pretty mis - s,"! said he ns'he flung his 'arm round — tlie neck of die Thu wtfitin., who, in the perfornuu►cc ()flier household doles had chanced to approach hi —' Yotere too h,uulsom© for a country gift'--and he bent his wiskers to her thee and attempted a kiss. The mustachios would unquestionably have suffered, had not the fair ones hands [well filled with the empty dishes of the sup per table. As it was, she bounced out of the room in high dudgeon, & our souiew•hat disconcerted hero vas leti to his own reAcc tiuns during the remainder of the evening. The girl, as was undoubtedly her duty, immediatel related the circumstance of the offence sho had received at the hands of the whiskered traveller, to the keeper of her father's bar room, who had some time been her acknowledged lover._ , Shouldn't have cared so much about it, she said, if the fellow had looked and acted like a Chris tian, but to have such a good fur nothing heathen poking his head in her face, was what she wouldn't bear, nor touch to—she knew she wouldn't. The twain forthwith resolved upon vengeance, and that very night was fixed for.its - cxecution. It was midnight—and all was still in the inn, save that here and there the sonorous noise of some queasy sleeper, "made the night hideous" with some somniferous melo dy. The stranger in mustachios had fallen into a quiet sleep, with, his pillow so adjusted as to prevent any -collosion with the hairy appendages of his countenance. He was roused into conciousness by the entrance of the bar keeper and his pretty waiter of the precedfing evening. He rubbed his eyes and ral - sf2d himself half upright. The bar kee per laced a basin of warm wi for a • ing hd.N mid razors, and a huge pair of sheep shears upon the stand at the bedside. "What do yen ant?"w demanded the whiskered gentleman, ma tone or vacilating between resolution mid terror. "To. shave you," was the laconic reply. In vain the dandy remonstrated, swore, 'and wept by turns—thebaL as hooper, w. iii, excitable. Brandishing his naked razor he commanded him to be quiet under-the pen alty of a elippe - d'weasand. Exhausted by agitation and terror, our tniftnlunate hero sunk down 'won his pillow, and sulle,red tlie hrush to pass over his countenance wit bout resistance. The . girl with a grill of most exquisite - satisfaction, held the light, while her lover applied the dull arid jagged razor - to the hairy honors of the stranger.' 'Wills-, kers and mustachios fell one after the other —4ll, beautiful as" they were, and dearly treasured as 'they had been. The wretch ed' Robespierre, lay .with' his eyes closed, and silent, save when a dull groan or smoth ered curse told that the tonsorial instru ment acted in tho double capai:ity of a clear ing knife' and stump digger. "Now:for his hair, - Jane," said the bar ber,..and the forrnidable sheep shears went clipping amid the curled and perfumed locks of our hero.. In a fesy,moments he was left whiskerless and hairless-.--an excellent fcan didate for a wig. "q . ,_nd night to you, mis ter," said the.barher,.... . he gathered up his apparatus and rett,..,o „room. "The next. time you try to kiss a country girl, you'll have a smooth facqlor it." . , .
