Sleighng is good never was better
which brings Us to The consideration of a
suffice; fraught with momentous interest,
and which has weighed heavily upon our
mind ever since the first fall of snow We
allule TO the cruel and unjust treatment
of " jung America, and feel it our duty
to enlist all our powers in his defence,
hoping To avert an iucalculable amount of
the mos; intense suffering. But TO rocccd
lie visits the Livery Stable and p.ocures
the best horse and sleigh to take some fair
Lady on '.iourncyings of pleasure" and
embraces the opportunity (nl tn LAZY
too TO whisper in her ear words OF the
most dcyoel attachment. OF course the
l.dy listens attentivcly and appears much
pleased, for She loves TO skip over the
snowy ground in the easy cutter. and she
fears that inaiten;ion and opposition 10
his suit would debar her of the pleasure.
To all his questions therefore, she returns
afftctiona.c answers, and the poor dcladed
Young America" I'M lgines himself fore
most in the scale of pretcrment that the
dear one BY his side thinks OF him - day
and dreams of him b. night, (iftl!c; return
before morning. and that the slightest
evidence OF infidelity and Inconsistency on
his part would break the tender heart of
the fair angel. The consequence is his
bottom dollar is expended for horse
hire, and he ycarns for mint of money
that he might lavish still more upon the
devoted angel in Disguise. Our cXpcrien-
ccl heart blccds for him, for well we know,
that when the frozen season is DER" he
will be hcarilessly 'jiltel," and pennilesS,
left to mourn over The vanity AMI incon-
stancy OF woman las those who have no
hope.

John, Bob. BIZ, or whatever his name
may be, that his love is unrequised- that
