THE LOVERS PiOUE.
A LEAF FROM NY JOURNAL.

Clouds tins morning rather threatening,
and an impairment wind. that | fear
may spoil our ride. Ladies habits
should be double sho;ted, and. then d
breeze would not be d bug bear. II
Laura Annesley is more splendid
creature a, one time than another il is
when she is equipped far riding. with
her rich locks braided close 70 her
cheek, the single plume floating on
her shoulder, and the dark dress show
ing her faultless outline 10 perfec,inn.
Kate is pretty GIRL too, but tlm'd as
an unhedged dave; and II IS great
{ fault OF hers. lhai hlushing AT every
thing so indiscrinlnaunsly. She should
never ride with Lasua Bnne~ley; her
figure loons more psiite han ever. BY
contrast.

dies. He was in rio,ous splits. and
talked until he inspired even Kate
Brooks. Miss Annesley. too, seemed
very willing to be entertained, and
was stupid as an owl. A spell seemed
to come over me, ar Ernesl's chatter
ing had the effect of one. Its always
a marvel to me tina! women of sense
can be so easily pleased! However
if Miss AnnesIey likes Hyndlord, |
am sure i, is no concern OF nine. She
will only amuse herself by trying the
effect of her witching looks and tones
upon him for awhile, and then cast
him off for some new victim. What
stupid world this is! it is wonder
