Of North Carolina, and MISS Ne S-d,
of North Carolina, Il merry sprite with
black eyes, and Miss lis, of Louisiana,
sweet, arch, and graceful-dangerous, too.
Amt you in luck-eyents, see them-you
abominable sinner. See, they bless you
with smile, and give Planchette a duck Of
their little noodles.
And now home again, oh, how glad | am!
Back among the Virginia girls, those that l
do so dearly love and admire, and with, too,
the noble, queenly matrons of the old Com
monwealth. Planchette is proud of them
all. They wear no costly jewels; for they
are themselves the jewels of the proud old
Commonwealth in her poverty and desola-
ton. You do not see them arrayed in jew
els and silks, lace, and all the extravaganza
of Il luxury that is at best but Il copy of
Yankeedom nor do they figure in the Ger
man and the round dances. Their en-
braces are for their parents or their hus-
bands. The only spectacle they. offer is
that Of purity, truth, and virtue to those
who believe that in gauds, vanity, and dis
play, lie the true role of woman. They
are better taught; the old lessons are not
yet worn cut the old State, thank God for
it, is not morally or socially " reconstruct
ed" They look on, but have not yet
learned to copy the Baltimore imitation of
Yankee ways and freedoms. And what
need have these of diamonds, or even of a
Planchette, to tell the story of their beauty
and worth The hour is late, all is quiet,
Planchette's fingers are bit tired, and
she hears no sound but the katydid,
and the whisper of the fairies as
they hold their midnight revels, and SC

thousand virtues and graces, as if sum-
moned by an enchanter's wand. There is
