lively, and very beautiful girl Of sixteen; We have
often seen her jumping the rope" and "rolling the
hoops and hope to do so again and again. We do
often visit the Parade Ground; we cross twice or

to look with delight upon the graceful gambols Of the
beautiful and budding female flowers that abound
there. Play on, laugh on, roll on, sweet girls; the

June 10th, 1885,
Mr. EDIToa,
Charlton street, in The upper part Of the city, what
should see bat two young ladies' (about IA and Is
years Of age) rolling a hoop. BY inquiry ascertain
ed they We're the daughters of very respectable mer-
chant OF this city. write this for the purpose of in
curing from you you think it decent for ladies of
their age. For my part think that all ladies over The
age Of IL, who are caught rolling hoops, ought to be
published in the newspapers.

Railway ourselves, and having found It to contain as
many lovely girls any place Of its size north of the
Potomac. We say therefore, follow the advice Of
"A Rambler"

Sercnades.
For our own part, we fond, very fond Of music,
and particularly fond of serenades; and we say that
the man. or the woman either, that hath no music

FORE as may naturally be supposed sympathise with
the suffering serensders described in the following
letter, and with ELIZA M."-sweet Eliza, whom we
know WELL express regret that any Of the sweet
and softer SEX should treat SO delicate an attention
so indecately as to throw pot Of -water, upon
the sconces Of the serenaders.
