MISCELLANY.
THE DISCARDED LOVER.

Among the variety Of ills which wo-
man is heir to, none perhaps are more
vexatious than the unwelcome atten-
tions Of disagreeable suitor.-A wo-
man is situated somewhat peculiarly
in this respect; she is obliged to re-
ceive the visits Of the men, however
unpleasing 20 her, and compelled. in a
measure to treat them with civility, il
not with respect; for il her demeanor
towards them be reserved and dis
dainful, it is published 10 the world,
and her reputation for good nature be-
comes somewhat disparaged. She is
consequently obliged 10 be complai.
SAINT to those whom perhaps she most
heartily and supremcly despises, and

MACS ATTEMPT AT "HIGH LIFE" "

Margaretta Rushbrook was certain
ly very extraordinary looking girl.

her for ever: At least could never
Danish from my memory the impress
sion that her looks made upon me.
On the first glance, the stranger was
struck with huge square mass Of flesh
from her feet to her shoulders, on
which was placed head that physi-
ognomists might behold with wonder
ment. A ponderous chin, which
seemed to have been stretched for the
special purpose of conccaling a mon
strously voluptuous bosom, contrasted
finely with an exquisitely small nose,
that was snugly seated in the centre
Of an expanded face, and just beneath
a pair Of little cunning grey eyes,
that twinkled like a couple Of glow
worms on a red cabbage leaf. A vast
profusion ofcurls were scattered round
her head-some were gracefully dan
gled behind her ears-others were
majestically reared on the very top OF
her head, and seemed to be viewing
with contempt the presumption Of a
stray curl, that seemed endeavouring
to find the extremity other heightened
chin. Smiles Of the most poetical i'm

Tim, during one other Pauses, was
about collecting sufficient wind to give
another "whew 20 but she skillfull,
manuevered to check the gathering
tornado, by suddenly setting in motion
the paddle Of her speech" Like
one of those machines, denominated 6
steamboat, she spluttered through an
ocean of words, paddle, paddle, pad

exclaiming with upturned eyes
"What a romantiie place is New

What mighty wonders had she
achieved while there She had read
the Ivanhose in ten volumes, the Deuce
Of Warsaw, in six the Vittle Of Wake
field, in four. She had enslaved the
hearts Of no less than a dozen dashing
youths, whom she won at parties, by
recommending and setting the exam
pie Of drinking nothing but brandy
sling. One Of them was so far gone
as to present her, on the day Of her
departure, the ace Of hearts on the
back of which was profile, or some
thing very ominous Of one. Marga-
retta received it with infinite marks OF
condescension, called it her dear min
liter, and wore it faithfully next her
heart. She now drew it forth to the
gaze of the wonderstricken Tim, who,
after viewing it attentively for few
moments started from his scat, and
seizing his hat, with variety Of con.
tending emotions, Of which amaze
ment was the most predominant, rush
ed rather uncercmoniously from her
presence.

Published tribute Of respect to the ase Mr.. CoNwAr-
We assure our friend, that give his poem place, with
great pleasure and shall ever be happy to obligc hm
Thy native land the life she gave,
May claim or udely spurn:
Thou owest country for grave,
Thy ashes have urn
Tears will thy epitaph relate,
On Beauty's cheek made wan;
And sorrow inarticulate,
Say than language can
Thy wounded mind, in endless sleep,
Defiance bids thy foes;
And from pale envy, IN the deep,
Finds refuge and rcposc.
What now avals the garland gay,
Or song for thee designed?
The sell sings thy funeral lay,
Thy lulaby-the wind
No friend to stretch thy feess feet
To close thine eye hand -
The mountain wave thy winding shoot
Thy pillow, the cold sand
"Perurbed spirit rest"-retaln
A tomb unknown 10 art -
rride builds the artificial faiu-
Thy sepulchre-uIe heart.
