and hence they resemble the lilies OF tne

what it is to put forth 8 mental or pnyacal
exertion. They dawdle their hours sway,
with every means to kill time except
work or thought. The great aim OF TINS
class is to be fashionable. The tie OF 9
erayat Is invested with such Importance
that sixteen different ways are on
the record. The cut Of q coat is a still
more important study, and these fellows
spend few hours every day loungirg in
the parlors of the tailors and discussing
style. Some who are less supplied with
cash than others often contrive to get q

at Derby's, or Cronin's, or some other fash
ionable tailor's, where he meets few as
sociates. In the afternoon he promenades
the Fifth avenue, or lounges over the news
paper at the club. After dinner, he makes
q few calls on fashionable ladies, and dis

These fashionable young men dwell IN 9

habits are different from those of the rest
of mankind. They have their own affected
drawl and the peculiar daintiness Of the
accomplished fop. Ali this may seem
pleasant for time, but itcomes soon to al
end. The fashionable young man may be
seen, after the lapse of few years, gray
. and wizened, worn out in doing nothing
and an old man at thirty. His energies
have died out for want Of use; just as, il
legal parlance, character becomes extinc
| from non usur, and before he has reached
thirty-fve his career is generally wound
up by q fashionable funeral.

LoUDoUN COUNTY, March Z, 1868.
We gladly see the last Vestige of snow
disappearing, though it is to give place to
mud and slush which render our roads
almost impossible. Two days ago ice was
cut six or eight inches thick, which, for
March, seems rather unreasonable. Some
persons, though, recall that in 1843 ice was
( gathered on the 18th of March, proving
that the present season is not SO unusually
cold as is generally asserted. 1t is feared
that the long continued freezing has in
iured the wheat, Of which q larger crop
was seeded than at any time since the be-
ginning of the war. 81
Public meetings are called at different
places in the. county to devise means for
! the speedy extension of the Alexandra,
Loudoun and Hampshire railroad, and the
prospect seems good for the success of the
proposed branch to .Aldie-b both very I'M
portant to the prosperity of the county.
