"A Lows LETTER. The following letter
was received by young lady of this
city about two weeks since. Despairlng
lovers who are deficient in style, aud
have not been able to find anything
high-Aown enough to touch the heart Of
their inamorata can take this excrucia-
tingly highfalutin epistle for model.
Here's what the loye-sick apothecary
says:
MY DEAR s.: By the relentless inter
vention of the invisible hand of Provi-
dence, | have been prevented from pre-
eipitating myself at your feet for the en-
tire absoluton of the collectaneous cal
jimmy which has been so slanderonsly
conglomerated upon the unbiotted and
unsophisticated face of my stainless rep
utation, and with which have been SO
maliciously circumvallated, that | appre-
bend the, most mountainous, colossal,
herculaHean difficulties in perfectly dis
generating myself from the criminous
Vaccination in which | have been so
numerically immured, that | was fear
fully apprehensive that was most mex
tricably involved But oh most super
human fair one, have been so unutter
ably bedazzled by the luminous emana-
ton and sun-like effulgence of your
charms, that notwithstanding the acri-
monious ordinations which have been
superinduced upon my character, | am
again induced to obtrude myself into
your presence Do not for moment
doubt the moveless stability and fatbom-
less profundity of my love; for the fam
miverous monocular autocrat of day
shall cease to irradiate the outrageous
recesses of the forest, the translucent
queen of night shall cease to perambu-
late the diaphanous and stelliierous con
cavity of the cerulean heavens, the ho-
rizonous boabion of heavens hor, iiic
artillery snail cease 10 DeiioW lofth lis
terrific peals, the forky corruscatiou of
heaven shall discontinue to blaze forth
its sulphurous igneous fulgor from the
igniyimous clouds before my love shall
be extinguished Could the manifesto
ton of the keenest remorse, or the exhi-
bition of the most compunctious pangs
of conscience, elevate me one-millionth
of an inch in your favor, | would imme'
diately commence
Pouring forth tears at such lavish rate a-
That, were the world on fire, they might drown
The wrath of Heaven. and quench the mighty
ruin.
Ever, your adoring-
False one. love thee still"
