Northern Fire Eaters.

A correspondent at Montgomery gives the
following exhibit of tho estimation in
which Northern men with Southern princi-
Piles are held there:
l was in mixed company recently,
where one person made himself peculiarly
conspicuous by his fierce loquacity. The
course of the Border Slave States was al
luded to, and he opened the vials of de-
nunciation upon them for "playing Sec
ond fiddle to the Black Republicans" be-
ing .'treacherous to Southern rights" etc.
"who is he?" asked of Southern gen.
tleman behind me, not in the dangerous
stage of the Secession mopomauia. "He?"
was the indignant reply; "why he is a
Northerner, damn him? He is talking
all this for effect. What does be care for
Southern rights? He don't own any mig
gers, and wasn't raised in the South. and
if it was fashionable he would just as soon
be an Abolitionist as Secessionist. I'd
trust a nigger stealer as soon as such a
man.
have encountered these Northern fire
eaters repeatedly. They think themselves
consumate actors; but they overstep the
modesty of nature, and tear the passion to
tatters. They evidently suppose that the
Secessionists are fools, or they would not
attempt to delude them with such trans
parent hypocrisy.

"Allow me to carry your basket, Miss,
as long as our paths lie in the same direc-
tion," said Mr.. Edge, courteously relieving
her of her burden as he Spoke. "And
-and-may-be you'd find less difficulty
in walking if you'll just take my armp'
Well wasn't it delightful? Mr.. Edge
forgot the streets and the wet pi,chy dark
ness-be thought he was walking on roses
Only, when he approached his own door,
be began 10 feal little nervous, and wish
ed that the lovely incognilo would not
hold on quite so tight. Suppose Maria
would be at the window on the lookout
for him, as she often was, how would she
interpret matters? He couldn't make her
believe that he only wanted to be polite to
fair traveller. Besides his sweeping dec
larations of the morning-she would be
sure TO recall them.
As he stopped at the right number and
turned round to bid the blue-eyed regret
full adieu, he was atonished to see her run
lightly up the steps and enter likewise.
Gracious Apollo he bursts into a chilly
perspiration at the idea of Maria's horror !
II think you Shave made a mistake,
Miss" stammered he; "this can't by your
house."
But it was too late-she was already in
the brilliantly lighted hall, and turning
round threw off her dripping habiliments,
and made him a courtesy.
"Very much obliged to you for your po-
liteness sir"
"Why, it's my acite!" gasped Edge.
"And happy to see that you havn't for,
gotten all your gallantry toward the ladies" !"
pursued the merciless puss, her blue eyes
they were pretty-all in a dance with
suppressed roguer.
Edge looked from the cealing to the floor,
in vain search of loop hole of retreat |;
but the search was unavailing.
"Well," said he, in the most sheepish of
all tones, ''it's the first time was ever po-
lite to woman in the cars, and hang me
it it shan't be the last"
"You see, DEAR" and the ecstatic little
lady, 81 was somewhat belated-didn't
expect to be delayed so long, and hadn't
any idea 1 should meet with so much at
tention in the cars, and from my own hus-
band too. Goodness gracious, how Aunt
Priscilla would enjoy the joke!'
"If you tell that old harpy," said Edge,
in accent of desperation. 81 shall never
hear the end of it."
"Very probably" said Maria, a,provokinly.
"Now look here, darling" said Mr.. Edge,
coaxingly, "you won't say anything, will
you? A fellow don't want to be laughed
at by all the world! I say, Maria, you
shall have the prettiest furs in the city, if
you will only keep quite-you shall on my
honor"
The terms were satisfactory, and Maria
capitulated-who wonldn't? And this is
the way she got those SPLENDID furs that
filled the hearts of her female friends with
envy; and perhapse it was what made Mr..
Edge such scrupulously courteous hus-
band ever after.

gThe Moniteur du Loiret recounts
the following anecdote: "At recent tete
at St. Cloud, a high dignitary of the church
wishing to pass from one drawing room to
another, found himself in narrow dehle
blocked up by two ball dresses of frightful
proportions. Seeing the embarrassment of
the prelate, one of the wearers essayed to
compress the swelling folds of her raiment,
and said to the prelate with a confused
smile, "Try to get through monseigneur.
Really the dressmakers put so much stuff

there is none left to cover your bosoms,"
said the bishop, concluding the sentence.

The Deaf Gentleman.
BY GEORGE ARNOLD.

The only passenger beside myself, in the
stage that drove me from D-to the
railway station, was a tall, spare young
man, with gray-blue eyes, chestnut hair, a
full dark beard, and very elegant suit of
broadclosh. Having nothing else TO do,
examined him pretty closely, and conclu-
ded, from bis abstract expression-a sort
of halfsimple look-that he was deaf
People who are decidedly bard of hearing,
almost always acquire this expression; and
to one accustomed to the study of faces,
they are readily distinguisbable.
So, when my companion remarked that
it was. very charming morning, in that
mild, cold-in-the-head kind of voice, pecu-
liar to the deaf, / answered him in loud
voice:
"Yes very inew
"Ehl" asked be, putting his hand behind
bis ear, with its palm towards me.
"Very fine indeed"
"Oh yes. We are having pleasant
spring."
The conversation, being begun, went on
apace, although found much difficulty in
making him hear me. He was travelling
for his health, and bad come to D.
from Boston, on his way to St. Louis. He
seemed pleasant, quiet kind of fellow, with
large fund of humor, an inexhaustable
collection of stories, and disposition to be
very agreeable and companionable.
BY the time our stage-ride had ended,
and we were snugly seated in the cars, we
had become well acquainted, and had a.
greed to become neutrality-suspicious. as

GOVERNOR OF NEBRAsKA.-The tele-
graph announces that Hon. d. X. Carter
of Cleveland, has been appointed Governor
of Nebraska. We understand that the
mission to Brazil was rendered Mr.. Garter,
but that he preferred the appointment as
Governor. Mr.. Garter is admirably quail
fed for his position and will fill it with sig
nal ability. Nebraska will soon come in as
State, and much of the prosperity ofthe
territory will depend upon her executive
head. Ohio will be at once gratified and
and honored by this appointment Clere-
