YOUNG LADIES.

A young lady, at 10, often needs a
warning voice to point out the quick
sands over which she is speeding her
thonghtless career. I hear you are
beautiful, and have many admirers. l
am sorry for it. A young woman,
whose conduct is marked with strict
honor and principles, cannot have many
admirers. There is nothing that more
certainly marks a bad habit, and depra-
we'd moral principle, thorough destruc-
ton of it, than this cruel and guilty en-
enlargement ofhonorable love. A young
man is never long attached 10 a young
lady without her being aware of it, COM
monty, indeed, before he is himself a
ware Of the nature and extent ofhis fee
ling. The knowledge is almost intui-
tive. From that moment, if she is per-
suaded that she cannot reciprocate his
sentiments, her course is p, in before
her-it is cool, undertaking, uDhesita-
ting repulse, on every occasion, place,
and manner. Love will die without
hope. To crush love in the bud is easy;
but, triAe and tamper with it till it has
taken root in the heart, and its de~struc-
ton is attended with the extinction Of
the hearts best and noblest feelings
Never forget this prime maxim in these
matters-not to discourage is always to
encourage. Your choice l will not, /
would not bias. But l had rather hear tina
you are engaged to a man of good char
acter and industrious habits, than to the
wcalthiest man without them; for, in
this %-country, these arc always a sure
pledge of final success. A mean and
cuIpable species Of conquest is the prac-
tise of not giving decided encourage
ment or repulse, with a Wow of keeping
your slave ill you have learned, to use
the cant phrase, you can't do heller. l
know not an expression that betrays
moro despicable meanness. She who
uses it shows a willingness to sell her
hand, to traffic her person for value re-
ceived, that is revolving to the highest
degree. No one, not even a parent,
can tell what character will render a
lady happy, but herself.-On herself,
on herself alone, then must and ought
to rest the responsibility Of her choice.
I have seen so many marriages COM
menced with a glitter Of wealth and
pomp, terminate in broken hearts, and
so many that were begun with no prom
ising auspices, which proved as happy
as human lifc admits, that [ am c%onvin.
ced that tho parent who oficiously inter-
poses stands answerable to God, his child
and his conscience, in a degree Of re-
sponsibleness most fearful and tremcn-
dous. Ladies too often attempt 20 gain
husbands as anglers catch fsh-by draw
ing the bait as no approaches il, till he
is impelled to grasp, at every hazard;

hoisted the cato ofthe mill and set il
rapidly a going, looked keenly around
him in every direction, and retired to an
eminence, a few rods distar.t, crowned
with a clump oftbick bushes, and crouch
ed down to await the approach Of his
mysterious enemy. He was not howev-
or mysterious to Chamberlin. The
old man remembered every trait in the
Indian character, and calculated with
great accuracy as to tho time and man
ner Of young Paugus's advance. just as
it was growing too dusky to distinguish
a human form, except towards the West,
the old man described him creeping u
tiously from a bunch Of bushes eight "
ten rods above the mill by the side Of
the torrent, with his cooked rife before
him, and his hand upon the lock. The
young savage heard the noise of the
saw gate and could discern it in rapid
motion, and shrunk back in the thick
ct, he camo out again a little distant
from where he went in, and with the
wary motions Of the ambush, %reconoi-
tired the mill. Chamberlin marked him
all the while as the catamount eyes the
fox. Young Paugus came out ofthe bush
es the third time and in a new quarter,
and was stealthily advancing when m
thing seemed to catch his eye in the
form Of his fathers slayer-he stopped
short-brought his rifle to his eye, and
with quick aim fired. The report rung
sharp and low upon the still air, as it
the gun itself were muAed. or afraid to
speak ADORE It's breath. Young Paugus
crept out upon a mill log that extended
over the rapid, and stretching himsclfup
to his full height, as if 10 ascertain, with
out advancing, the success of his shot.
The old man could spare him no longer.
He saw the we'll remembered form of
the old P~igwacket chief, as the young
savage stood against the sky ofthe West
which was still red with the rays of the
sunken sun. He levelled the fatal gun
it blazed-young Paugus leaped into
the cir six feet as the ball whistled
through his heart, and his lifeless body
fell far down into the rapid that foamed
below him-while his vengeful spirit fed
and mingled with that sterner ore, which
parted long before at Lovewell's pond
In the land where their fathers had
gone.'
Chamberlin returned slowly and gloo-
mily to his cottage. The next morning, a
bullet hole through the centre of the
old garment he had hung at the saw gate,
admonished him, that the aim as we'll as
the vengeance Of old Rugus had de-
scended to his sons, and as he unused up
on those he had slain, and reflected that,
although he was old, he still might have
again to lift his gun against the blood of
Paugus, or himself fall by their avenging
hand-he wished bitterly that some 9TH
er bullet than his own had slain that re-
nowned Indian, and that they had
met, to quench their battle thirst and
scour out their foul guns, upon the beach
of Lovewell's pond.
