A Love Letter.

The following tender epistle was read in court in Onnondaga Co.,, N. Y., in suit for breach of promise. For the benefit of the many dashing gallants hereabouts, We give it entire.
 My DEAR MRS. M.; Every time I think of you my heart Hops up and down like churn-dasher. Sensations of unutterable joy caper over it like young goats on a stable roof, and thrill through it like spanlsh needles through pair of tow linen trow- sers. As gosling swimmeth with delight through mud puddle, SO swim in sea of glory. Visions of ecstatic rapture thicker than the hairs of backing brush and brighter than the hues of humming birds pinions visit me in my slumbers, and borne on their invisible wings, your image stands before me, and reach out to grasp it like a pointer snapping at a blue-bottle fly. When first beheld your angelic perfection was bewildered, and My brain whirled around like humble bee under a glass tumbler. My eyes stood open like cellar doors in country town, and I lifted up my ears to catch the silverey accents of your voice. My tonge refused to wag, and in silent adoration drank in the sweet in- lection of love as thirsty man swolloweth a tumhler of hot whiskey punch.
 Since the light of your face fell upon my life, sometimes feel 8 if could lift myself up by my boot-straps to the top of the church steeple, and pull the bell.rope for singing school, Day and night you are in my thoughts. When Aurora, bushing like bride, rises from her saffron colored couch Y: when the jay-bird pipes his tuneful lay in The apple tree by the springhouse; when the chanticleer's shrill clarion heralds the com. ing morn; when the awakening pig arises from his bed and grunteth, and goeth for his morning refreshments when the drowsy beetle wheels to droning flight at sultry noon.tide; and when the lowing herds come home at milking-time, 1 think of thee; and like piece of gum elastic, my heart seems stretched clear across my bosom. Your hair Is like the mane of my sorrel horse powered with gold and the brass pins skewered through your waterfall fill me smoother than the elbow of au old coat. Your eyes are glorious to behold. In their depths see legion of little cupids bathing, like a cohort of ants in an old army crack. CT. When their fire hit me upon my manly breast it penetrated my whole anatomy as load of bird shot through a rotten aple. Your noseis is like chunk of Parian marble, and your mouth is puekered with sweetness. Nectar fingers on your lips, like honey on @ bears's paw, and myriads of unfedged kisses are there, ready to fly out and light somewhere like blue birds out of their parents nests. Your laugh rings in my ears like the wind-harps strain, or the bleat of 6 stray lamb on a bleak hillside The dimples on your cheeks are like bow CTS in beds of roses, or hollows in cakes of homemade sugar.
 am dying to fly to thy presence and pour out the burning eloquence of my love as thrifty housewives pour out coffee. A way from you l am as melancholy as sick rat. Sometimes can hear the June bugs of despondency buzzing in my ears, and feel the cold lizards of despair crawling down my back. Uncounted fears like thousand minnows,, nibble at nv spirits and my soul is pierced with doubts like an old cheese is bored with skip pers. r.
 My love for you is stronger than the smell of Coffee's patent butter, or the kick of young COW, and more unselfsh than a kittens first caterwaul. As O song bird bankers for the light of the day, the eau tious mouse for the fresh bacon in the tran as a mean pup hankers for new milk, SO l long for thee.
 You are fairer than 8 speckeled bullet, swceter than Yankee donut fried in sorg- hum morlasses, brighter than a topknot plummage on the head of a Muscovy duck. You are candy, kisses, raisings and swetened toddy altogether.
 If these few remarks will enable you to see the inside of my soul, and me to win your affections, l shall be SO happy as a woodpecker on the cherry tree, or stage horse in green pasture. If you cannot re- ciprocate my thrilling passion. I will pine away like poisoned bedbug, and fall away from afiourishing vine of life, to an untime- ly branch and in the coming years, when the hills and the philosophical frog sings his cheerful evening hymns, you happy in an- catch cold upon the last resting place of yours affectionately.
