A stATRIMONIAL spECULAT,oN

An Auvergnat, named Poupllard, 90 years
OF age, and cobber by trade, who has not
long been in Paris, was possessed with
burning desire 10 take unio himself a wife
but being extremely ugly and of excessive
'imidity, he feared TO address himself TO any
woman. He, however, consulted his friends
as TO what he should do; and they after
having greatly deliberaied, told him lha, hp
oueh! TO station himself in some pnblic place,
and distribute 10 the females " no might pass
prospectus, setting forth his name aud ad.
d'ess, and his desire to marry. The scheme
seemed 10 him good one, and The friends
solemnly assured him that ii could not posi-
bly, fail. AT his request, therefore, they
drew up prospectus, which was thus con-
ceived:-
"Mademoiselle, il you wish 10 make my
acquaintance for marriage or otherwise, | am

ker by trade, % years Of age, and with ahou,

Five days flew away, and, to his aslonish-

In the evening Of the sixth day, however,
as he was returning home, he was stopped
in the Rue St. Victor by man. "Are you

THE THREE CALLERS.

BY CHARLES SWAIN.
MoRN has called londly to a fair boy stray.
ng.
Mid golden meadows rich with clover
dew
She call-bnt he still thinks of noushl bu,
playing,
And so she smiles and waves him an
alden!
Whilst he, sill merry with his 1ow'ry store,
Deems not that morn, sweet morn returns
r,a no more. Is9lgs s.l r g .uHf
Noon comelh-b but the boy TO manhood
r' .n growing, N. aft
Heeds not the lime, he sees bui one sweet
form. p.
One young fair face, from bower of jessamine
growing
And all his loving heart with bliss is
warm;
So noon nnnolced seeks the western shore,
A man ioIgeis that noon returns no more.
NIGHT ,appeih gently a, easement gleam-
lug,
With the thin fire-light flick-ring faint and
low,
By which gray haired man is sadly dream
ing,
Der pleasures gone, as all life's pleasures
goj
Night calls him to her, and he leaves his
door,
Silent and dark and he returns no more.

| There was but one opinion-.that be had
been insulted by direct and gross public
indgnity, and must call bis ioe TO the field
| Of honor. ai t
Accordingly, upon The following day, a
challenge was despatched, which MIR.
Myers very promptly accepted, and fixed
the time at neon OF the same day-the
weapons 10 be double barreled shot guns
the distance ten PAGES.
The parties met on the sand beach, under
the bank of The river, above the town, and
hundreds assembled to witness The issue
The mortal belligprents were placed in a
position by their seconds, and the ceath-
dealing guns--enormous double-barrel--
rested with dark, yawning muzzles on the
sand, in their hands. The spectators were
much astonish-d by the strange contrast
exhibited in their appearance. Gen. Cole
was an old, experienced duelist, who had
shot his man before he was eighteen, and
had often been engaged in affairs of the
kind.
On the contrary, Myers was unacqnaint-
ed with firearms, aud had always hitherto
been deemed an unmittiga,ed paltron.-
And yet, singular TO record, the duplist
was nervous and agitated, almost trembling,
while the reputed coward was calm, firm,
steady as rock, with that horrid smile on
his curling lip, and few scattered tear
drops gleaming in the sun, on bis cheek
Gen. Coles second gave the word. Fire
one, two, three! He need not, however,
to have counted so many, for with the echo
OF the word fire, Myers elevated his piece
as quick as thought, and touched the trig-
ger. There was tremendous roar and
Gen. Cole fell dead. His head was pierced
with twenty buckshot.
No one ever again called Myers cow
. ard IN Arkansas--no one ever thought of
the term, as his shadow CLEANED in the
sunlight. He had taken his degree in the
college of desperation, and his diploma was
written in blood.
He became politician of great notriety
"a leader in that part Of the S,ate-was
repeatedly elected to the legislature, where
he acquired distinction by bis talents, but
more by his fearless daring, and he is said
to oe in the progress OF ascension, having
recently obtained the commission Of Major
General oil the Militia. We hope before
many months, 10 see his name on the roll
of Members OF Congress.
| Nature made him coward-Love for
| his insulted wife made him brave-and
bravery has conferred honor.
