WHITE SULPHUR sPRINGs, July Il.
The worldly-w wise young man and young
woman who are at the White to-day do
not live for the present, and, although the
lines of their daily walk may appear to be
the narrow ones Of . psnance, they are as
suredly not living for the psst. They are
laying up strength and thereby putting in
a supply of endurance for the merry month
of August, when the revel is mad, when
the fun is fast and furious. There are q
great many, not initiated, who are making
bsv while the srn shines, unaware that
there is another and = heavier crop to be
gsrnered, and they will go TO their homes
sometime next September q thin as waters
snd with but little enthusiasm for the fes'
t~iyities of the winter. The girl who knows
will tell you that. at this place IN August,
one gais:y follows 50 fast upon another II
,prodigious strength to keep up
with the procession. And once you latter
or finger by the wsyside you are lost; Tor
gotten like one who lies down for the long
sleep.
So MANY wise young friends are keeping
a little low; they do not rise until IL
o'cock, they play tennis, wander through
the hundred and one shady walks, lounge
about on the great lawn, the finest l have
ever seen anywhere, drink the medicinal
waters with q quiet religious enthusiasm,
dance with great discretion, aud, in 8
word, tske the very best of care OF them
selves. This sort of existence is very
placid and delightful, especially when You
view in the distance a great carnival
in which you are o to become a factor
Of greater or lesser Importance.
Then il is that the study Of the thropg,
the view you have Of human nature and
its varied emotions. becomes, in the Ian
guage of a bright Southern girl, liberal
education" 1t is all hope, all expectation
and speculation now; then it will be frui-
ton, and what will the harvest be?"
This is the rack upon which the butterflies
of fashion, the votaries Of social pleasure,
must suffer upon now and then; and, OF
course, White Sulphur is not the only place
where this phase Of life is exempli6ed. But
there is q better ground upon which TO note it
than any other. The belle contemplstes
her charms in the mirror, whose candor
sometimes strikes a chill to her neart. She
wonders, as she gazes upon the beauty that
is or was, il the successes Of seasons past
are to he repeated; she runs over the hst OF
men she knows, and wonders who will wor-
ship mes, devoutly at her shrine; she spec
ulstes upon victims yet uncsught-snd
ever these unknown-aud trust that her
cup OF pleasure may run full; that the
standard of victory may be planted at her
side when the bloodless battle shall have
been fought.
To man. whom the fates have blessed by
ordaining him q man, the question Of the
future is not so momentous. He is always
largely outnumtered by the other sex, and
is pretty sure in most any event, to have
a very gay time. But he must do q little
thinking also. He remembers how in
other years, heartlsss girls have given him
the marble heart" and he wonders if, in
the face OF all the advantages which ne
will have, he will bow the seryile knee to
some naughty beauty to win paught blu!
scorn in the end. Naturally he resolves 10
SHOW theae naughty queens Of hearts a
thiug or two," and it remains to he seen
whether he will carry out his boast.
1t has been observed that thsse firmly ex-
pressed intentions are all very beautiful
from q theoretical cliff. but when il comes
to leye, earth and q womsn's wiles, they
crumble ss did the mummies Of buried
cities before tho soft air of day. You will
have a very interesting task in watching
these young gentlemen Of leisure support
ing theiI manhood under the fire Of besuty
and the msnipulstiors OF the feminine
mind. At tie same time keep your eye
upon the fair reaper of hearts and you
may see her bend beneath the yoke.
There is always q man who can tame the
sweet savage, and he usually gets there
sooner or later, whererpop she Hno wa:
once the leader or a carnival becomes q
wife and a good wise mother.
Come and see the Panorama Of Human
Passions; we can take you right along the

/ presume We have five hundred people
here now, and it is like q great happy
family. almost dread the time when the
peaceful life we are leading will be broken
into, and We will have to DIN the reveler,
or retire within our shells.
I think that tie Richmond society men
should be presented with q pennant OIL
some other emblem of appreciation by the
women of the world. Their g~allantry and
their fidelity to the Richmond girls al
home or abroad ia as remarkable as it i:
beautiful. Richmond is not a very big
city, bat its beaux set an example thai
stsnds alone. A Richmond man would
feel himself lacking in self.respect il b.

maiden remains outside the merry whirl,
the Richmond gallant is untiriDg in biz

his home girls are made happy with 9

one Of Dixie's roses, and makes merry in

on the cheek, and / believe that IL thu
