Getting the Mitten.

Most Young men arc acquainted with this very
familiar expression, and that too by sad expe-
rience. Now we know that this thing Of "getting
the mitten," is by no means as agreeable as II IS
cracked up to be; and it produces no very pleas
ant sensations in the mind Of the ardent lover.-
When in answer to the anxious interrogatory-
'Miss will you accept Of company' she says,
half poulingly, and half good humorediy.

situated can form any conjecture OF that Pecu-
liar sensation which it naturally creates. Inc

of sound sense, he will attach no blame to the
