(li\- a rtcent vUit to Washington a •lrieiid of mine related to me an experience of her own, which struck me as being so amusing that I have thought it worth re coiding. 1 will give it as n< arlv as possi ble iiv lier own words, though I cannot re prodiK-e her light laughter and her pretty sparkling manner, nor give any idea of how very prUly Lulu Vaughn looked as she told it.) The funniest adventure I ever had in my life occurred during my last winter here, and as you have a.-ked me to give yo some idea of my history since we parted, I can scaicely Jo i: better than by telling you a.l nb ut tny flirtation with the Man Without a Name. You know what a perpetual round of new/aces Washington society is, how we never meet the satin- set twee in the sea son, hut how night after night one sees a bewildering host of strangers, and is intro duced to a fresh crowd, half of whom vou never see again, and the other half you don't know if vou do. Well, one. night soon after we arrived at Tillaru's, I was at a Bee ption at Senator f'a>t)emaine's. l liey had a beautiful house, and thiir large pallors weie crowded to overflown g. I had alteady some gentle men acquaintances, and was talking to two or three, when suddenly up came my 6oiis in, Diek Ferguson—l -lon't think \ou ev er saw Dick, hut he is a splendid fellow, and was drtermined, he told me before I came to the party, t<> introduce crowds of people to me, as it Would be his last chance for lie was going to st; rt for California the next morning. I perceived now that he was dragging forward a tall and handsome man, and comprehended mv tate. "Such a nice tt llow. Lulu !" he whisper— | .•ed liirn in tensely, for 1 could not bear liiin. H*eD, there he was r ou'rageou>ly tipsy, and he staggered directly up to me !" "Mi-s Lulu," lie said, in a Lurried, thick voice. "Miss Lulu, you ought not to go with anvbo !v but me : it's too bad, upon my teml it's too bad !" I whs very angry, and said coldly. " Will you allow me to pass, Mr. Foster ?" for he stood directlv before me. My companion had been watching me arnestlyl knew, and perceiving now by mv manner that I did nut approve of the fellow's proceedings, he tried to pass on, pressing mv arm closer and endeavoring to round Foster, hut he threw himself in our way agvin. •'lt's too bad I say !" he repeated, thick ly ; "it's too had to snub a fellow so ! You know how I love you ; I've told you so and again—and once you seemed to like me, but that was only a flirtation I suppose. Miss Lulu, you're such a flirt— butj.ilj love you 1" and be hered at me np-iiy- r _ .. . 1 glared about in despair during this tjiade ; there was no one to be seen whom I knew at all. ' O i, Mr. (I supplied the name with an inarticulate muniiur,) please get me away from this !' 1 cried, appealing to my c< mpajiioii. "Certainly, Miss Vaughn," he replied, promptly ; then to Foster —"Now, ir, you must let this young lady and myself pass you," '•Oli, but you ain't going to take her away from ine ? it's too bad J" he moan ed. "Yes, sir, as si e wishes it I certainly shall—forgive me for any seeming rudeness,' and with a sudden turn of his di..engaged hand he sent my tormentor out of the way and Dp against the wall as if he had beet) a child. "Now, Miss Vaughn, I will find you a scat." We passed into the supper-roorn,leaving Foster.spll.meaning that it was "too bad I" I sank down on a sofa overcome, with mor tification and enjbarraissmrnt. Presently my escort came back to me armed with souxe eatables, aud seated himself beside ine. "Oh, dear," I said, "I fear you will have a horrible idea of me after what you have just se6n." lie looked at me with his fine dark eyes full of a sort of amused admiration. "Oh, no !" he said. "I heard you were a flirt before 1 met you, and 1 suppose this is one of your victims, but I dare say you are somewhat excusable ; it must be nearly im possible for aoy one as handsome as you "TO SPEAK HIS THOUGHTS IS EVERY FREEMAN'S RIGHT. "—Tbo*as Jefferson. TUNKHANNOCK, PA., WEDNESDAY, OCT- 24, 1866 are to keep from flirting." Then I b gan to profess that I never flirt ed, and really at the time felt as if I never would again ; while his earnest eyes were on me they seemed somehow so to awaken all my better feelings and make me asham ed of any unworthy frivolity* I felt more anxious than I had ever been before to im press this stranger favorably, and was do ing tny utmost to captivate him, when up rushi d Dick. u Well, Lulu, I'm off!" "What, so soon ?" "Yes, got lots of packing to do to-night, and y< u know I start at six to-morrow morning. Good bye, Walter, to my ecort Good bye, Lulu dear, don't flirt too much " The good fellow squeezed tny hand so that he almost crushed it and made it fairly ache, and then hurried away off through the crowd I had now learned my com panion's first name, and by that for a long time I designated him in mv own mind, Dick gone, Walter and I resumed our interrupted conversation, which lasted un til ihe friends with whom I came summon fed me to to go home. "And you must go, Miss Vaughn ?" lie said at parting. "It seems so." "Then I shall see yon at the Secretary's to-morrow night." "Yes." I went up to bid good-evening, and then took advantage of" a disengaged moment to say to Mrs Castlemaine 'Do vou know who that gentleman is over by the piano, the tall one with daik hair ?" "No I don't. Do you, Senator?" "No,' rep'ied her husband. "I don't remember his name. I think lie is some stranger. ' This was not very lucid, hut it was all 1 could learn. When I went home. 1 as sure you I thought a good deal of Walter as I ca led liirn, and remembering his prompt politeness when Foster was so rude his fine eves and his brilliant conversation, lucked forward with much pleasure to see ing him again, lie was at the Secretary's and quite devoted to me. By this time I was ashamed to ask him his name, and no one of whom I ventured to inquire knew it at all. This evening mamma was with me. I saw her looking hard at me when 1 was dancing with Walter, and I knew that presently 1 must introduce him to her. So I took him up and boldly mumbled some thing when I iame to his name, covering mv omission by saying instantly "A great friend >t Dick'-." This was all very well for the time, but the next evening when Waler caine to W iilard's and joined me in mv promenade in the hall the afiairb gan to grow serious I was verv glad to see him, hut I knew 1 should have to make some explanation of him to papa after he was gone. We walked tip arid down together for a long time. Every moment 1 liked him better, atid yel every moment it. grew more ab surd to tell liirn that 1 did not know his name. 1 gathered from what he said t at he lived in New York, and that he was well established in business, but he ap peared to take it for granted that Dick bad told me all about him. lie left nie at last on the arrival of a gentleman wliooame especially to call upon me. He was a great society man and knew everybody; as lie bowed to Walter, and indeed greet ed him verv politely, I was delighted with the thought that at last I st ould find out all about hiin. ' Mr. White, who is that gentleman?"' 1 a.-ked as soon as Walter was out 'A hearing. "Which one ?" asked he. While star ing about tor some new face. "The one you just shook hands with ; the one I was talking to when you came." " He! oh, that is Mr.—Mr.—Mr." he repeated, musingly. "I can't remember his name, it's a very odd one He is from New York, but I thought he was an old friend of yours, he has been so devoted to you lately." I laughed and blushed. "Oh, no! but I really should like to know his name." "It's droll I can't remember it," said White, "but perhaps it will cme lo me." However it did not come to him, and he left ine in the same hopeless ignorace. As soon as my visitors disappeared pHpa joined me. "Lulu, who is that man who was with you so long this evening?" "I don't know, sir." "I mean the handsome fellow you walk ed with," explained my father. "Yes, I know which one you mean, but I don't know his name." "Why, Lulu ! What are you talking about ?" "The truth, paps, he is a great friend of Dick's, he introduced him to me. " And then 1 went on to explain all I could about it. Ags ; n for two nights at two of the great halls of the season Walter was devoted to me ; then one morning ha met me on the Avenue, and walked home with tne. And by this time he had been with me so much that I was ashamed to ask any one what his name was. 1 liked him very much, and I thought he admired ma, only it was very odd I could not find out any name but Walter. Once I thought I had it. I met him out at a reception, and he said to me. "Did you get mv card this morning !" "No," I replied, eagerly ; "when did you call ?" "About three." "I was out then. Was my name writ ten on it?" "No; I had BO pencil." Here was a clue. When I reached home that night 1 began to search through the card basket. Mother wondered why I stayed out of bed, tired as I was ; but I thought I should find a key to the mystery at last, but no, the names were all well known, the card must have been lost, and I went to be I as much in the dark as ever, though now deeply interested in the man without a name Walter's visits were mostly paid by his lounging at Willard's while I was in the parlor, so that he had no occasion to send another card for some time. Once I came very near finding out. Young Creel ar rived from New Yoik. You know he knows every one, an.l I saw him talking earnestly with Walter. after he came t<> spkak tone You remember how dreadfully lie lisps. Wei, he drawl ed out how glad he was "to thee me,' and so on, and then as soon as I could, I asked him : "Mr. Creel, who is that gentleman you were just talking with?" "Which one, the thmall man or the th'tout one?" "Neither; that tail one, talking to the large woman in red." "That ? Oh, that ith Mithcr Cothwoth, of the firm of Cothwoth and thon. You ought to know him. Hitb father ith vewv wich." "Oh, thank you, Ido know him : but what did you say the name was?" "(,'othwoth. Ah, Mith Thith, how dc do?" and Creel went off to talk with An gelique Smith. I was as much in the dark as ever. — Cothwoth, be called it; that would b Coswos, perhaps, as he lisped so dreadful ly, or even Cossos, for Creel was apt to confuse the sounds of r. and w. Evident ly I could not call him by any of these name*. I could only console mvself hv the. reflection that I had at least soracthng satisfactory to tell mamma who was be- ginning to be very inquisitive about my admirer. I suppose it was my habit of now alwavs calling him lEalter to my9'lf that led to the final catastrophe and the solution of the mystery. One afternoon I was walking down across street, when Walter joined me. We went on together chattmg pleisantly, when all of a sudden there was a rush and a clatter, and a run away horse came plunging and tearing down the street; he was on the sidewalk, and seemed to be coming directly towards u;. I was terribly frightened, as you mav imagine, and clung to my companion's arm. "Oh, Walter! Walter!*' I cried, "we
