It is edited by the "Ladies Of the Telegraph officer
at Mobile, and streams over with choice ,ems of
wit and hamor. As a *3104.0 its contents, we
extract tip following beautifinate
Shall .tell you a story of real' life, as romantic'
and affecting as any in fiction ? Well, listen. Ev-i
err citizen of Mobile is familiar with the sight of!
the Indian girls who are seen in our streets in the .
winter. With their little bundles of light wood up
an their backs, they mark the adVent of cold wee-
ther as regularly as the mocking. bird and the, car
dinal chronicle the approach.of spring., They ped
dle their smell parcels of pine from door to door,
and all are.familisr with the soft,. quick, petitiona
ry voice in which they exclaim "chumps," as they
offer their cheap bur&us for tale.
These Indian girls, it is mull known, belong to
certain Choctaw families who refused to emigrate
with their tribe beyond the Mississippi, sod yet
linger upon their aboriginal bunting grounds, on the
waters of the Pearl and the Pascagoula. • Though
they thnq exhibit an unconquerable attachment to
their native soil, they have yet refused to adopt
the habits, lapguage, or pursuits of the whites by
whom they are surrounded, and are perversely in
ditrerent to all the inducements of eiviliration.—
They persist in leading a species of savage r gipsey
life—the men sustaining themselves by Ilinating,
and the women by peddling whortleberries and
other wild fruit in the summer, and bandies of pine
in the winter. With these simple productions they
visit'llobile semi-annually, anti for the time reside
in the vicinity. in small huts or camps, constructed
of btu lc. boards, anti the limbs of trees. This has
been their usage from time immemorial, and it yet
continues.
These Indiana are generally a miserable and ig
norant race, but with all their degradations, they
gesis some of the virtues in a singular degree—
The women are proverbially chaste and modest.
1 and-of all the young girls that annually visit our
i city, none have been known to depart from the
paths of rectitude. A strong interest, therefore,
surrounds these simple daughters of the woods.
who resist all the blandishments of their station
and peas unharmed through the streets of our city.
Many of them are quite handsome, and possess,
beneath tbeir rustic garbs--the calico gown and
red blanket—considerable grace of manner and ap
pearance. 'As they invariably refuse - to talk Eng
lish, very little conversation can be had with them,
and that only in reference to the small bargains
They wish to make. Chumpa and picayune are al
most The only words they emkloy. . in their inter
course with our inhabitants. btill they are not re
served in their movements, where they with to
rya' e a bargain, arid enter the different boozes of
the city, atores, dwellings and °Glees, without hesi
tation, ceremony or nom:num-meet lvlao has not
been started many. Lt morning by the IoW voice, at
the chamber door, exclaiming—" Mmma . '"
The stoical demeanor of these Choctaw nuiftle.:
has the natural sensibilities and sentiment§ of th
sex, They have bright flashing eyes, well devet%
oped, Symmetrical and flexible thrills, beautiful
small hands and fe'?t, and show, in their love of
brilliant artieles of dress, rings, beads, and other
personal decorations, the taste' and vanity of their
civilized sisters. Is it possible that they are,desti
tute.ottliase delicate sympathies and etender taco
tins which have marked women in all other elms
es and e.onklitien; of life! This question him no
doubt suggested itself to many. as an interesting
problem of character. In one Instance, at least, an
attempt—perbapt, ii, heartlessone—was made ,to
-solVe it, and it is to that the story I have to tell
refer'. It eanie to my knowledge. in fill its details,
bat I will attempt to narrate it in such'a manner
. as not to detain the reader with partict4ra which
he can imagine himself
Among the Choctaw gipsiee Who visited Mobile
in the winter of 1846, was one cf unusual beauty
and attractiven7asa. Although scarcely developed
into womanhood—not more than seventeen "suns"

was yet tall, round-limbed, straight and gracefiil 7 ,
a very model of feminine form. Her features, urefe
prominent and regular than is usual with her ttibe.
were delicately sculptured ; and the erect utrfitude
i of her head, with liar large, fawn-like eyes, and
1 abundant coal-black hair, always. neatly ilaited in
f massive folds, gave to her appearance air of su
periority szch as the youthful, Pocalio tas is said to
appearance
have possessed. number was 'e tremely . neat,
though with a large of si er and wamp
um ornaments, and her small f .et, which - any of
the fair 'promenaders on Dalin in might have en
vied, were invariably dressed in mocensina, orris,
melded in the most ferieif , style, with many color
ed beads. As she walk . about the stNett of Mu
bile arrayed in this w v, wi , h her parcel of pine
swung across her ehi'ailders, she attracted the at
tention of all spectaeoni for her beauty, though-she
would hold canz,4 with none except in the words
by which she , eavored to dispose of her burden.

for some weeks—at' list began to have ohvinus4t.

office than elsewhere ;, she always came there hest,
and took an evident interest in his attentions. t

Henry Howarchunderstood the secrets of woman's

Nuisance.
A novel mode of putting one dearitt has
. been
adopted in the
,quiet and picturesque village of
Derby, with complete stiocegs. For a considerable
time. a number of illiterate young men assembled
at the principal entrance to the church, and amused
themselves by making indecoroa-i remarks 'on the
person, dress, tbc., of each female (irrespective of
wild position) as she entered the church. No Fe
niale escaped their vulgar 'rudeness. Ono day a
humfbill, of which the following is a copy, was post
ed throughout the village'
" Wanted, about twenty voung men, of all shapes
and aizre, from the tall &tidy, with hair enough on
his upper works to stuff a' barber's cushion, down to
the little huhip-backed, freckled-faced, bow-legged,
carrotty-headed upstart. The object,` is to form a
gaping corps, In be in attendance at the church
doors, on each Sabbath,. before the commencement
of divine service, to stare at the females as they
enter. and Make delicate and.gentlemanly remarks
on their person and dress. All who wish to enlist
tbe above corps will appear at' the church door
next Senday.morning, as usual; when, they will!be
duly inspeeted ; and their names, personal t_Tpear
ance, registere d to a book kept for that pur
pose, and v.:Wished in lutndialls, to be distributed
all over the village. To prevent a general rush, it
;will be well to state that none will he enlisted whip
possess intellectual capacity above that of a well:
bred donkey."
The,nuisancc was discontinued.
IS HE At.nrcl"—Some years ago, a chap arrived
-in Augusta, Maine; itith.one of those great curiosi
ties, an Egyptian Mummy, which he desired to ex
hibit. It Was requisite then, that before the exhi

of one of the inferior courts. Accordingly,' the
- showthan p . roceeded lathe courtchouse,,tvliete some
court was to seffiign, and applied 4o the Judge for
a license, stating that attrifinite trouble and ex

fortunate enough to procure the greatest curiosity
ever seen in the trotted States. .
