The Ideal Lovers.

A Nashville paper is publishing thrill
ling romance, which is ascribed to one ].
Bateman Smith, whose descriptions of the
lovers deserve more extended publicity, and
are therefore quoted as follows:
{" He was young, he was fair, and he part
ed his hair, like the average beau, in the
middle; he was proud, he was bold, but the
truth must be told, he played like a fiend
on the fiddle But, aside from this vice,
he was everything nice, and his heart was
so loving and tender, that he always turned
pale when he trod on the tail of the cat
lying down by the fender He clerked in
store, and the way that he tore off calico,
jeans, and brown sheeting, would have
tickled a calf and made the brute laugh
in the face of a quarterly meeting. He cut
quite dash with a darling mustache, which
he learned to adore and to cherish: for one
girl had said, While she dropped her proud
head, that 'twould kill her to see the thing
perish On a Sunday he'd search the
straight road to the church, unheeding the
voice of the scorner; and demurely he sat,
like young tabby cat, with the saints in
the far amen corner. He sang like bird,
and his sweet voice was heard fairly tug
ging away at long meter; and we speak but
the truth when we say that this youth could
outsing hungry mosquito.
She was young, she was fair, and she
scrambled her hair like the average belle of
the city; she was proud, but not bold, yet
the truth must be told that the way she
chewed wax was pity. But, aside from
this vice, she was everything nice, and the
world much applauded her hustle; and the
Fayetteville boys, being calmed by the noise,
walked miles just to hear the thing rustic.
She cut quite swell, did this wax chewing
belle, and the men hocked in armies to
meet her; but she gave them the slirk, for
she loved the young clerk who sang like
hungry mosquito. So she hemmed and she
hawed, and she sighed and she 'chawed,'
till her heart and her jaws were both bro
ken; then she walked by his store, while lie
stood at the door awaiting some amative
token. She raised up her eyes with q pref
ty surprise, and tried to enact the proud
scorner: but, to tell you the plain truth,
she just grinnsd at the yySs::th who loved the
deyout amen corner"
