Fred's Courtship.
CONCLUDED.

Is A II, FRED" exclaimed the delight
IN ed bachelor, "you are boy after
my own heart Persevere-and We'll snap
our fingers then at fortune -
After four similar visits at Pendleton
House, which occupied as many weeks
Frederick residing too far from his lady
love, to drive the little black pony to see
her oftener than once in seven days-he
resolved with the advice and consent of
his uncle, to make an offer of his hand.
'But l feel kind of bashfulness in in
Producing the subject" said Frederick,
'she is such dignified lady Suppose
should write her a letter? She knows
am fellow more conversant with books
than the graces Of society and she will ap-
preciate my delicacy."
81 don't see anything out of the way in
that, replied the old gentleman, who little
suspected Fred's motives. can offer is an
offer, whether made on paper, Or by word
of mouth. Draw up the document, and let
me see it,"
Fred had three reasons for this stop
First, although he had audacity enough to
act his part thus far, he felt some diff
dence about making a proposal where he
was confident of being coolly rejected. In
the next place, he thought it might be in
keeping with the character he had assum-
ed, to write Laura on the subject. The
main reason which induced him to take this
step, however, was desire to convince his
uncle that he had made formal and bona
.fde proposal for Miss Pendleton' Hand, and
lay before him positive evidence of his re-
fusal.
Frederick accordingly produced an elab-
crate document, full Of sound sense, nicely
turned compliments, and formal offer of
his hand; which, although it contained
scarcely IO0e enough to meet the old gen.
tleman's ideas of ardent courtship, obtain
ed his general appreciation.
This letter was sealed and despatched
under Uncle Philips immediate supervis-
ion; and on the very same day, there was
received reply. Frederick opened the let
ter in presence Of his uncle.
"Lucky boy!'' cried the latter, in high
glee. 81 am sure she will have you. Read /!

You are sure ?' said Frederick, forcing
smile. 81 have my .fears about it y
| need not state what the fears were.--
Notwithstanding all his precautions, Fred
was little anxious. What predicament
he would be in, should such miracle oc-
cur, as his uncle confidently expected
Respected sir, begun Fred
Rather cool, that" suggested his uncle.
"Cool, but polite, )" said Fred, who really
appeared well pleased 81 do not dislike
the expression. A woman should respect
the man she intends to marry. "Allow me
to thank you for the high honor you have
conferred upon me by the offer of your
hand and rest assured that, although |
cannot accept it, remain, with sentiments
of esteem, your obliged and gratified
friend--''
