We must now transport our readers to the
cozy little town Of Abbeville, and request
that imagination allow them to think that
two weeks have passed since the incidents
of'the last chapter took place.
Eva bad been summoned home by her
father; and Ida Walter had accepted an in
vitation 10 accompany her, and spend few
weeks iu Abbeville.
Our young friends, Marton and Eviuston,
| had their own reasons for following the la
dies; and arrived, and took private lodgings
at Abbeville..about four days after the arrival
Of the ladies.
Mr.. Suobberhosser--as might have been
expected-had grown quite hoarse in ours
| ing Mr.. Underdonk, police officers, and the
citizens of Charleston generally, for the
Treatment which he had endured in that
city.
T Immediately Upon his arrival in Able
vile, the terrified Dutchman had gone in
search of a physician but, when the M. D.,
had examined Snobberhosssr, he declared,
that the blaekness of his face was not caused
by the African Coast, or any other species
of fever, but by solution. of Nitrate Of Sill
yer, applied by his own, or some evil l-dispos-
ed individuals hands.
It is needness to inform the reader, that
Snobberhosser's indignation and wrath knew
no bounds at such revelation. Where vas
it done? Who dared do it?' and such-like
questions, wasasked by himselfseveral times;
but, for the Fife of him he could not decide.
Feeling we'll assured, however, that sonse-
body. must have done it, and strongly sus-
picioniug his rival, Marlton, as the prime
mover in the plot, he determined to repair
at once to Mr. Thornwell, and demand the
hand of Eva, and revenge himself upen his
rival by marrying her as soon as possible
To be brief-he succeeded in obtaining Che
consent of poor Mr.. Fhoruwsll; and at the
time when our chapter opens, it was whis-
pered about town, that Eva Thornwell was
to become Mrs. Snobberhosser in the brief
space of three days.
Such then, was the state Of things. We
now proceed with our story, by introducing
our readers into the room occupied BY Eva
and Ida.
'Un oman at the dore, want fuh see you,
Miss Eba,' said servant to Eva.
"A woman want to see me what does
she look like p asked Eva.
Dunno, Miss Eba, but spec one young
black manly mecker,' replied the servant.
%, yes r said Eva, glancing knowingly
upon Ida. SHOW her up at once
1T must be Betsy said Eva, as the ser
want left the room.
A few moments after, well-formed,
sprightly, but exceedingly ugly-faced negro
girl entered the room. @ .-..
Have you concluded to serve me in that
little affair p asked Eva.
tYes man, replied the negro girl, grin
ming from earto ear. =
lis that the bridal dress, WHICH you have
under your arm p asked Eva.
Yes man, replied the girl.
TRY it on, and let US see how it fits you,
said Eva.
But, missus,' said the girl, 'dese tings
most too fine. fuh poor nigger like me to put
on
We'll, we will not dispute about the quail
ity of the dress just now, Betsey; but only
desire to see how a bridal attire becomes
you said Eva.
sAfter seme persuasion, the negro girl al
lowed herself to be attired from head to foot
in most beautiful bridal dress, which the
ladies declared to be perfect fit, and quite
becoming for the bride of Mr.. Snobberhos-
SER
This done, the young ladies entered into
whispered conversation with the girl, the
subject of which, the writer can only guess
from broken sentences, such as: FRIDAY
night -sladder'-'window will be OPEN
arrange it'-sMr Marlton'-'don't breathe
q word of it &c. &c.
The girl then laid aside the bridal dress,
and, after donning her usual garments,
noiselessly left the room.
AS some of our readers may be dying to
know what this mysterious visit, and still
moro mysterious conversation means, the
writer proposes to escort them to the lodg-
ing of Marlton and Evinston, in hopes that
they may furnish some clue to the whole af-
fair.
so, Snobberhosser marries Eva on Friday
night, Notwithstanding all our trouble to
prevent it, said Evinston, with dissap-
pointed air.
The deuse, be does ? replied Marlton,
without lifting his eyes from the newspaper,
which he had been reading.
s'Pon my word you seem to care very
little about it, said Evinston.
i was just reading Q translation from
Goethe, entitled the Elf-King; and it strikes
me very forcbly that I have read the
what care I about Goethe!' exclaimed
Evinston. sYou seem to forget that Snob-
berhosser is to be translated into the married
state on Friday night
In the language of the very poem, which
lam now reading,' said Marlton. i say to
you, that Thine eyes are deceived by the
vapors of night or you would not talk so
foolishly.'
.Plapue take the poemp said Evinston.
