Whew preach that doctrine until your hair
is grey, and you are as-toothless as a new
born babe, and still young folks will "set
up till the stars grow tired ofixatching,
and the roosters begin to crowi,u ea -.
There is sort of fascination in il, a
positive denial to the contrary notwithI
stan ing. An indescribable, uudeniablo
eharln--eharm in being the sole occupant
of front parlor, with nothing tolnolest
or make afraid; the sofa drawn up before
the shining CRATE, and the lamp regulated
to STEADY, blaze that willinot eclipse the
brightness of eyes, or made particularly
pleasing in hearing the last pair of house
hold feeShke d bee line departure for the
upperchambers, and feeling that the ever
swinging parlcr, door will remain, closed
until one Of thelpqrty eornered, chOoseto
open it,. q T. 6HkaJ0GT 1JHWT
Talk Of coatting BY daylightfl Think
Of laming ones arm by quick. hasty with
drawals from around certain waist 1.-THE
incessant ringing. of the door bell, or see-
ing the puff combs and curls fly in every
direction, by, a sound Of coming footsteps.
Imagine proud lover at the feet of fair Ia
dy putting forth an eloquent, long ayowal
withextraordiuary ryexpressions fitting over
the face; and, at the same moment, puz-
zled little scountenance peering through
the. folding doors, wondering what makes
Mr.. M-"pray with his eyes wide openp
Or, more disagreeablestill, have mamma"
open the door, without the prelude of a
rap, of course, just atthemomentyou have
ventured to test the temperature and sweet
ness Of her daughters lips. t1Lhoi l't
And then what time in the day could
one take? Not in the forenoon, certainly,
when music teachers and fashionable cali
ers are in vogue; not in the afternoon,
when ones senses are stupefed by the eat
ing of a hearty dinner; not on Sundays
when every body is expected to go to church
not in church, with pontonrimic gestures
that set the occupants, Of neighboring pews
in litter; Night is the veritable season
set in old primitive day-a time and season
for courting &c.. q
An hour, when you can pinch Susie's
fingers to make her tell who she loves
best; look in Susie's hand to see if her
fortune runs with yours, and see what let
ter of the alphabet is formed therein; and
kiss her when you please; hug her when
you please; and all this when the old folks
are sleeping, when the sound of footsteps
are scattering in the streets, and there is
no one on earth so near Susie as your.elfi

EASTERN FAsHIoNs.--A young and We

suburban village of Clcveland, Ohio, on
Wed nesday last, met young, fashionable
and very pretty married lady, and after
chatting very pleasantly with her, received
and accepted an invitation to call at her
house next morning when her husband
would be ''down town" The engagement
was kept-the lady was fascinating, char
ming, seductive; the young man was fasci-
mated, charmed, seduced., Butin the emidst
of their JOY the husband broke in and ra-
we'd furiously. Husband swore and pre-
scnted pistols; lady tainted and put on a
wrapper; young man trembled and asked
for life Husband relcnted, and would
keep quiet for $4,000; young man gained
confidence, and proposed 81 300; husband
consented young man gave check for
$1,000 aud paid $500 in cash, and then
departed, lie told his friends; they we're

There is another view cf the matter, which
does not vary the general result, which we
will briefly present. The convention may, to
prevent the rejection of their constitution,
make it altogether silent upon the subject OF
slavery, and leave that questionsjth the State
Legislature. In this form, it would likely
be at once ratified, presented to Congress, and
the territory be admitted as State, before
there was any direct action on the subject.
The Legislature would be elected by the ''whole
people" and thus the freesoil sentiment would
prevail and the contamination take place at
the hrst meeting Of the Legislature. Which
ever mode may be adopted, we repeat, Their
suit will be the same; and it will be accom-
plIshed under the monstrous deception en-
oraced in the various DISCUSSES of popular SOW
ereignty.
it rests with the people of the South to say
whether they are prepared to submit to such
outrages, perpetrated in their own name, and
by the authority and through the agency of
the man, whom they elevated to the Presi-
dency, and who, while he stood pledged 10
protect their interests, has most shamefully be-
trayed them.

LADY KILLED by RoCKET.-In Chicago, on
the 4th, lady, Mrs SARAH A. SMITH, was struck
dead by a rocket, which entered the centre of her
forehead, and apparently exploded in the cavity Of
the skull, scattering her brains in all directions.
The rocket entered a third story window, and the
Press says:
The unfortunate woman had just entered the
room to meet her husband who was TO 90 to walk
with her. Seeing him look out from the window
with two other persons, sine stepped softly up to
the group; just then the explosion took place and
the rocket came Kissing in It's errand OF death
The first knowledge that Mr.. Smith had that his
wife in the room, was seeing her when he
turned, lying ghasuy and bleeding corpse upon
the floor.
The rocket OF the largest class, and still
protruded from the wound. OF course death was
instantaneous and the vile and mother who had so
gaily joined her husband, not two minutes before,
was a liteless corpse.
