 Med Feltus, the wide-awake editor of that excellent paper, the Lewisburg State, is the greatest flatterer in the Government. The only wonder to us is that he has not long ago captivated some fair beauty and become a happy Benedict. He would make one of the best husbands in the world and would always keep his wife in good liumor. We do do not mean to intimate that the dear creatures (the women, we mean,) ever get out of humor, but then it just strikes us that it would not mar the good looks or Ned in the least to be a little bald-headed. Try your art, Ned, O.; some of the fair ones and see how quickly Cupid will come to your aid and dart one of his little love-tipped arrows into her hear.
