LOVERS QUARRELS.

Frederick, Md. May ga dainty, dapper
bit of man." who had fixed himself snugly in
the possession of much of this worlds goods, by
matrimonial connexion, had hardly completed
his honey moon, until the ills which betidc those
who venture into the "uncertaln bonds" began
to press upon him. A misunderstanding took
place, and he and his gentle consort, quarrelled
exactly "like man and wife," When the exa-
ccrbation of his spirit had subsidized, which, in
truth, was nothing more than asprinkling upon
,he alter of Hymen, to make the flame burn
more bright, our hero, with all the tender teel-
nes of lover, supplicated in the gentlest strain
for reconciliation but finding the fair empress
of his heart, like most of her sex, tickle, coy,
and hard to please" he resorted to the noble
expedient Of ending his sorrows in the true
romantic style. Decked in the snow-whte ha-
biliment of death, with white cloth bound
about his head, at the silent midnight hour, he
stood before the arbltress OF his fate, and again
demanded pardon, which she most cruelty re-
fused to grant. What could a tender soul do
more to cyince his -aifectionf Without further
hesitation, and with a resolution truly noble.
our hero drew phial from his pocket, and pro.
nouncing, with tragical emphasis, the words
"here goes!" emptied two ounces of laudanun
down his capacious throat. Then throwing
himself upon Deo, ana composing niihseii IL
the attitude If laid out corpse, he closed his
eyes and--eTpiredm ~
To pass over the piercing cries Of the widow
ed lady, we will just add that physician wa
speedily sent for, by whose efforts our hero wa
resuscitated and
" His eyes, which owl-like wink'd upon the day,
Burst open with keen and twinkling ray,
And 10 he hugs and kisses his old deary."
We are happy to add che is alive and kick

who tells so many tales, and says it was all
sham to try the strength of female love, thi
noble action would have passed of with the ad
miratiun Of which it was entitled.
