arrival of the General. We are aware
that it is not very polite in us to charge
him with an overweening love for the fair
sex, yet circumstances really justify the
suspicion that he has eclipsed in feals of
love the ancients as well as moderns. This
however does not seem to excite any great
alarm among those suspicious, ciusty
mouldy, JEALOUS fellows, husbands,-in-
deed it would seem that the green eged

thing for fathers to wait at the door until

we " could not cry Amen" 1t would

all our hearts ifa thousand young La FAY
