EscoURaefss TO BoAppNa-ScHooL GiRLs--As
meter Of the highest interest TO all school gcer
we have the pleasure to announce that's pupil ofo
Of the hifalutin 5th Avenue boarding schools, in
New Work. left that institution the other day, with
out the usual formslity Of permit and in an hour
after was AIRS General John G. Bynum Esq. room
49s7, st. Nicholas Tavern, Broadway, New York"
The enterprising young lady who accomplished this
feat was Miss Phipps-(victoria Eureka was no
doubt her other name) Of Hawkins Co. East'renn-
essee. She formerly went TO onc of the Female
Universities in Columbia, and il is said was very
popular with the young men there, and might have
married wsH In that town, but unfortunately il was
found out that she was worth 81 10000, in her
right and had well-grounded hopes Of an addition
to this, whenever certain Other kin should beoblg-
ing enough to Ego back" This discovery, of course
ruined her prospects in Columbia. She saw that
from having been courted and hattered by all, she
had come to be neglected and forsaken; and she
determined TO go to New York, where rich geerls
are held in some esteem. In pursuance ofthis de-
termination she got up her clothes and "dusted''
right straight for New York. She pulled off her
Arrived at New York she applied to one of those
establishments in 9Th Avenue, known ostensibly
as boarding schools, but which are really humane
houses of refuge for rich orfn geerls, who grow
hear-sick under the neglect Of an unfeeng and I'M
apprecatve world. Here such prosecuted geerls
find a congcnal home Such vain pomp and vani-
ties of the world as learning geography, ciphcring,
al.
are utterly discarded and the practical duties and
virtues of life, such as walking dancing, painting,
ianing opera-snging and the lighter department of
cooperagei are piously nculcated, and where such
heresy as knowing poor geerl is not so much as
named amongst them. Our heroine, being domicil-
hifalutin, till Gen. Bynum came along. 1t seems
that they had had weakness for each other before
her voluntary exile from Tennessee and every one
who knows woman at all, knows that if she ever
loved a man once--she is liable to be taken sud-
denly bad about him any time afterwards The
feeling of first love in geers heart is like the
seeds found buried with the mummies in Egypt.
They may have lain for a thousand years in the
damp, cold, scpuchres of the dead, and may seem
shrivelled and lifeiess but expose them more
to the air and the sunlight,-st them be planted
again in old mother Garth, and the germ of life will
reawakcn and grow again into fruit or flower. So
with woman's early love,--it may be blighted, or
by constraint misfortune its incense may be un-
willingly devoted to strange altar; but only let
the beaming of an old lovers smile, and the music
of his almost forgotten voice, come back, like the
long lost sunlight to the buried seed, and the old
love will live again SO with our Victoria Eureka;
she saw Gen. Bynum and Gen. Bynum saw her.
The flame and the camphene came together, and
there must be an explosion. He gains acccss TO the
institution, relative, and they arrange to leave
it, The old Duenna of the Ranch suspected his
design and forbade him tho house. He went again
though, and she and the loved one both appear.
Madam told Miss to go to her cell; but Miss told
her she was going TO bid her goodbye. Madam
screamed and seized the General but he broke loose
and he and his beloved left the house, followed by
all the teachers and geerls all cryag-and tearing
their har, but to purpose the resolute pair
tered carriage and drove off, and got married, and
are now Nr. and Mrs. Gen. John G. Bynum, Of
Chattanooga Tenn. A long life of happiness to
them, say wei
