Cora He?" ; "Hnsh/Madge ! don't look at jue with your great stormy eyes that way. Madge HarperL you- positively make my blood rurr cold the way you? talk.. It is hardly right that a girl Of my- attractions should throw herself away ou a man with only one arm?" ; /."Not if that arm was.lost, iu the defence ? of:-his--country. .. Oh, Coralie ! .you that I have loved as a sister, how can you be so heartless? How caa you have so little feeling for? the'-.bravo-niau: who. has en? shrined yon in his heart of hearts, and who has periled his all in defence of our loved land! Think pf those who Lave bled and died, and how narro wry Hugh has escaped with his life ;' and all through'"this warm summer day f know he is lying patient and hopeful, yet wondering why Coralie does not come?his Coralie. Nay, do not start} you know you promised to be bis jost one short year ago ; and now, Coralie, how can you throw aside, like a worthless toy; the love of the noblest heart that ever beat?" "Hush, Madge, you distract me. What has all this talk to do with my marrying Hngh Mansfield? I suppose that I love him just as well as any other girl would under the circumstances ; but as to" wed ding'him, it is utterly impossible, scarred and mutilated as he is." -l"But, Coralie, you should be proud of that scar, and that lost arm. Had I such a soldier lo ver, I could consider it a badge of honor-that I would-be proud to. share forever. Besides, is not the soul the same, only, if possible, more ennobled ? Oh, be careful, my friend, my sister, how you trifle with your- life's great happi? ness ;" and, in her impetuosity, the small delicate girl knelt at ..her cousin's feet, and clasped the folds" of her rich riding habit./. . "I tell.you I will not see him. Marry him !. do, never ! But now I think of it, you would suit him exactly, Madge ; you are both what the world calls talented-and understand all about soul marriage, moral heroism, and all that, while I am so much of earth, earthy, that I shudder at the sight of-a cut finger. You see, my little coasijjj that I like the moral courage you possess. Why, I believe.you would march npY to a. loaded cannon's mouth if you thought it was necessary. . No, no, little one, I could only yield my heart to a hand s?me-ifaee and form, not forgetting the charnis of.a well-filled purse. Believe me, leonid not -Bear to "seo Hugh now; he was once so gloriously handsome. Good? bye, cousin dear, I am going to take a ride witiX, Charlie .Lunisford,- to the, haunted castle, where" they say that ghosts do con? gregate on a moonlight night. Good? bye." And the gay coquette donned her riding.hat and closed the door behind her. Madge made no reply ; she had covered her face with-'-her hands, and thc bitter tears- were coursing down between her white fingers. ?' Ali, little did the thought? less - Coralie think that she had rudely jarred a secret chord that wayward Madge had .striven.-, iu vain-to hi Jo down deep in her ji?art'"of hearts. She was not beautiful ; "?^her features, though prepossessing and in? tellectual, were too large for beauty; still the form was cast in the finest mould, and with her proud, flashing eyes, clear com? plexion,'and wealth of chestnut curls, she was:pft?n called beautiful, because there was" abb n't her that mysterious "magnetic attraction-vwlncli supplies the place of beauty. -Leftem-orphan four year previous to the introduction, pf our story, she had found a home in the "house of her uncle, where she had been treated as a daughter?yet the silly, fashionable Mrs. Mayo urn illy sup? plied tHe place of the mother she had lost; and Madge sighed for tho rose-wreathed cottage where she had known such a * wealth 01 love? "Charlie Lumsfonl, scated in thc next room, had unwittingly beeu a listener to the conversation of the two girls, and it was the first intimation he.had overheard ?ofr the engagement pf Coralie. A great . admirer of beauty, he had.been lured by her siren smiles almost to the verge of a declaration,.and had hitherto looked upon M?dg? simply as an interesting girl, of whom he would like to know more, Uni then it was not worththe trouble; for Char? lie, though talented and noble-minded, had been spoiled by fortune, and dearly loved his ease. But now his heart throbbed and glowed as he listened to her sentiments, so unlike the mass of women ; and how he . despised himself for yielding his heart a moment to one whose love went no deeper than a handsome face and a well-filled purse-- Besides, why may not his fate be the same as Hugh/s, for an earnest lover of his country, that morning he had enlisted for Lee'is army. Coralie opened the door softly to find him pacing, the room with a red spot burn? ing on either check, while the words "I must know more of her; she is worthy the love of a true man's heart ; such as with the help of heaven I may become," came from his lips. And the little beauty gave thc words her own interpretation. "Ile will certainly propose," she said, "and I shall as certainly accept ; for in all the country round, there is no oue so wealthy- and handsome as Charlie Linns ford." " Ho turned to see a roguish face approach? ing, and to feel a soft little hand placed within his own, while thc apology, "I am sorry to have kept you waiting so long, Mr. Lumsford, but am ready at last," came in ajnusical voice to his ears ; and they were soon on their way to the old ruins which Coralie had expressed a fancy to explore, but for which cared little, thinking the trouble only repaid by the attractive attentions of Captain Lumsibrd. It was with difficulty that he kept up a conversation with tho smiling beauty by his Bide; for his thoughts wore far away by the sick bed of his friend Hugh ; wait iug, longing hoping through the rosy morning hours for the presence of his aifi anced bride, thc faithless Coralie. Some? how he fancied that the shy, impulsive Mad ere was there, with her deep, unfath oinable eyes and muku rti. voice, ? perhaps ? riding to him frcm some classic tome, or ?B???M?P? ? III I u.i. . - . _ . ^, - tender poet; and somehow the thought gave him pain. But Madge was not there, as she had been many days previous, assistingEvalinc Mansfield in thc care .of her sick brother, because after Coralie's departure, she went carefully to work searching her own heart, and there found Hugh' Mausfield's image shrined as its most cherished idol. How could she dare to meet him now ? Reader, it is a sacred hour when her pure and trusting maiden for the first time enters the white-robed chambers of the soul, and finds the spirit image of another shadowed there. How thc clear white deepens into ?a rosy flush, and the rainbow hues of hope overshadow all till the path of lifo seems strewed with flowers; earth is robed with a golden glory, and it seems as if we "would never, never suffer again, so sweet, so thrilling is the new, strange chord that the welcome guest has stirred. But the sweetest awakening of woman's life came not to Madge Harper as it docs to many maidens, but in sorrow, for with it came the knowledge that she was alone and unloved. Alas! what a desolate feel? ing this is to a loving woman's heart, r. -. *. * ? * * * "Madge! Madge! my sweet*little wild wood blossom, will you not, can you not love me ? I know well the worth, the depths of a nature ouch as yourr. Circum? stances have compelled me to speak now, for I leave with my regiment iii the morn? ing, and could not depart without opening my mind to you?you who have so silent? ly, so sweetly, stolen into my inner life, till every tendril of my heart seems woven around yen, every purpose centered in you, till it can scarcely be said is my own. Madge, I would not insult your spotless nature, or tempt your proud heart, by speaking of the great wcaith which it is in my power to lay at your feet, did I not know that from no other mau than a hus? band would you receive means to expand the lofty intellect which is yours; and that you, who are an angel of mercy, might make that wealth a blessing. Oh, Madge, give me one ra}* of hope, and help me to live the bctter'life that I have marked out for myself/' Her answerfell on Charlie Lumford's life crushing out all the beautiful flowers which had nestled there for weeks. "Charles, dear friend, 1 love and esteem your noble character, prize your society, but will bc frank with you. My heart is another's and my love, like yours, is hope? less." They were together on the mossy turf beneath the shade of the spreading maples, and the strong man bowed his head upon his hands, while his proud frame shook with contending emotions. She laid her small hand on his bowed head, and the slight touch aroused him. Impulsively his arm drew her to his embrace, while he pressed one kiss upon her brow. ? "It is not wrong,. Madge. Farewell, purest, dearest. I will try to learn to look upon you as a sister; and when you hear that Charles Lumsford has falleu in battle you .will go and comfort his poor mother, and be to her as a daughter." One moment more, and the brave hearted, impulsive Charlie Lumsford was gone. Alas! how Often swift coming presenti? ments are true ; it was at Antietam he fell, with her name the last upon his lips.? Tliey opeued his will and in it there was a rich legacy bequeathed to Madge Harper; and when his mother wrote asking her to come and share her homo, and be to her as a daughter, she went like a true woman, seeking to bind up the wounds bf the broken-hearted, and many blessed thc leg? acy, which in tlie hands of Madge, was the means of doing so much good. lu the meantime where was Coralie?? She had become thc wife of a rich mer? chant, old enough to be her father, and in j a giddy round of pleasure, vainly sought the pearl of happiness. Alas! how many there are w ho sell themselves fur geld to find that gold a curse. ; * ? * * ? * * * j "How can I ever thank you, Madge, for your kindness to me? You have been like fragrant il nvreis and cool fountains to a parched desert." And ITngli Mansfield took thc little hand in his only remaining one, while he gazed searchingly into the clear eyes, upturned to his own. "I am going to luxuriate in rural life now," and his voice had a touch of sadness in it.? "And now that I havo entirely recovered, you will still bc my companion sometimes, and wc will live over the oki days again ?you and I?the days when we were children." It came, and yet he knew not how, thc all-asorbing love which overshadowed, with its holy wings, Hugh Manfields life; and Madge became loved as even Coralie never had been. Every hour that Hugh spent in her soci? ety he wondered at the strength and power of her mind. It was winter, when the f snow had spread abroad its fleecy mantle, that the confession was made. And short? ly after there was a quiet wedding in thc village church, where thc sweetly mur? mured, "I will" of Madge, thrilled Hugh Manfield's heart with gladness and caused him to bless the broken arm which had gained him such a wife. -SJw The Josh Billings Papers. JOSH TETE-TETES WITH A SCHOOL MOM. Mr Dear Miss Jerusoa Stebbins, Esq.: Yuro lengthy and hyacinthine Jotter arro ve yesterday by the 7 o'clock mail, and tho tharc was mutch into it that was j way abuy my cdukashun, still i could evry now and then ferret out sum ov tho commonest ov it, tho idees want so new az i hav seen, but i seldum hav cum itcrost, in my travels, enny longer words, nor more ov thom, harnessed together. It must bo very happoo tow hav so mulch left ov language, such a flux ov balmy and sweet-scented paragraphs, Butch slippery u nd u lash uns in tho way ov cadence, sich heaven-bedowed pauzes, with exklamashun pints az thick as the pius on a bolling alley. It must hav kost yu quarts uv midnito kerosine ile, tew hav sod so much that waz small, in diktionary: that glitters, like a now tin roof, smiled upon by tho morning glance ov aurora. But few, alas ! how few ! ever grab th is gorgeous power, which seems tew be as natral tow yu az a pcakoks tail in full bboin. I envy yu Miss Stobbins, but envy iz mi best galo, i never kan trot up lew yuro style, und reach tho etherial top which you roost on, and perforate tho resplendent sublimity* ov tho konkavo s key, i w?iz hilt for muddy going, yu miglit az well ask an old elephant lew climb a greased liberty pole, tail fust, and deliver a 4th of-july om-.hun on tim top ov it tew tho listening cherubs in the attik world, Miss J crush a Stebbins, if yu would on? ly, turn yuro --enius into! poetry for 6 weeks, yu would heave dil hole sixes cvry time, i would bet mi last surviving dol? lar that ??^S?flyson, tho briltish poelcr, would air^?oiil biz tallow dip in despair, would turn oph his gass in agony, and would flux in tho skalding blaze ov yuro glory similar tew a greased rag in the fiery furnace ov Shadrak. Longfellow would turn into a thin gliOtit, and walk the midnite earth in bro? gans. Oliver "Wendell Holmes, esq., would take a solitary drink and die az dead az lift concluding paragraph ov an unor? thodox.sermin. Whittier, the gentle and sainted qua? ker, would burn biz poems at the stake, and take up a job at ditching. Dickens, the immortal Charles, would buy another breastpin, and go calmly and naturally, without a sigh or a sall embittcred tear, into thc jcweliy bizness. Old Homer, tim dead giant ov stanza, whose lion's skin the poetic asses ov later times have galloped and gamboled under, and whose writings arc tho lu command? ments of poezy, which poets have ever since tried to keep by stealing them. Yea! the old patriarle and proprietor ov Parnassus would kick oph biz deth-fel ters, and gathring up his scattered bones, would run out ov eternity tew welcome you, Jcrush, and probably insist upon having yu within tho holy grip ov wed? lock. ? These things are solemn facts, my dear girl, and don't be afrade to let them sink i nco you, for if yu will only boo yourself for G or 8 consecutiv weeks you aro actu? ally a poet, with 2 smoke stacks?you kant be held without a wired bit,yu kant bo hid long cn ny how; an oyster mite az well undertake lew hide in his shell, or tho 1? ov clubs to change her spots. And now Miss Stebbins, let nie drop a few drops ov advice touching thc best way tew git yurcself in condition for the com? ing fight. Let thc first thing yu do in tho morn? ing bc to rizo arly, soak y ti re feet often, drink yung hyson tea raw, abstain from awl animal food, espeshily old cheeze? never you mind what they say about cheeze being good for a lively imagina shn?, thare aint a mile ov truth in it; cat egg, humming-bird's will hurt yu the least; eat ono a day, on an empty stu ni? lli uk. travel I around the lois loose, with? out an\* watorfaulj don't drink enny al? cohol, gin and jamaka rum iz only good for beginners in male poetry, studdy Webster's diktionary, unabridged, put it under yuro pillow at night, set on it thru the day. cat oph from it, work the fly-leaves ov it up into curl-papers, after you hav got it awl by heart, hilo Webster in a potash kctllo lor 12 hours and drink up thc juice. This will makoyou a poetess, lovelycst thing on this earth, a solace lew man, a fust-class mother, the best housekeeper between here and the village ov Dunkirk; yer will bo as amiable as buttered toast ; yuro heart will bo as warm and stretchy as a yarn stocking; yuro dress its tidy as a violet ; y ure hair, a I was parted ex ?tkly.on T'.-.c eqtmloV; yuro face as lair ?nd as free from wrinkles and care as a dreaming lose. P. S.?- Jer?sha, mi lovely school mom, ov * ? * * * :-! * summers if yer-shoold fail tew be a poet? ess by and by, after awl tl.it hu mun na? tur and Hillings has doive for you, thare aii.t no poetry in diktionary^ words full to do the bizness, the sou's ov dandy lions, and the kissing perfume ol' thc languid bolly hr nie; the liquid love dalliance, that cums like a nektrous vapor from the brest ov the song bird, pillowed among the leaves of the damask rose, when at tho birth ov twilight he woos his coy sweetheart from the shady shadows ov thc sylvan shade, are awl, thc whole bilc ing ov them, dod beats, and aint worth 10 cents a pound lo work up into poetry. It is barely possible that poetry may be made out ov ideas, and that words are mere gentlemen ushers, who bukum ri dickilous just as soon as they git above or below their bizness. and il is also barely possible, but hardly probable, that thare are a grate menny now makin themscifs a very skanty kiverlid ov glory by mix? ing up poetry, who might make themscifs respektable and beloved by cultivating the small mental patch that Heaven has rented lew them willi white beans, or sum other plain but nutritious sass. Larger Beer. I hav finally cum tew tho conclusion that larger beer as a beverage is not in? toxicating. I hav bin told so by a goman who sed he bcd drunk it awl uite long, just lo try experiment, and was obliged tu go homo entire!}* sober in tho morning. I have seen this samo man drink sixteen glasses, and if ho was drunk ho was drunk in german and nobody could understand it. IL is proper en nfl'to state this man kept a larger beer saloon and could have no object in slating what was not strictly thus. ? believed him tew thc full extent ov my ability. 1 never drunk but three glasses ov larger beer in mi lifo, and that made mi bcd on twist as tho it was hung on thu cend ov a string, but i was told that it was owin to mi bile bein out ov place; and i guess that it was so, for i never biled over wuss than i did when i got hum that nita vVIy wife thot i wus gain lew die, and i was afraid that i shouldn't, for it did seem as tho every thing i had ever eaten in my lifo wuz cummin to tho surface, and i do really be? love that if my wife hadn't pulled oil' mi boots jest as she did, they wod hav cum thunderin up too. 0 ! how sick 1 was ! I-f years ago, and i eau taste it now. 1 never had so much experience in so short a Lime. If enny man shad tell mo that larger beer wus not intoxicating, i shud belove ! him; bul if ho should tell mu that i wasn't i drunk that nile, but that mi stummuck | was out ov order, i should ask him tow! state over a few words, just how a man i felt and acted when ho was well set up. If J want (Trunk that nite i had sum of thc most Daterai simple ms that a man over had, and kop sober. Jn thc first place it was about 80 rods from where i drank the larger beer to mi house, and i wus over 2 hours on the road, and had a hold bustid thru each one ov mi panlloon neez, and didn't have any hat, and tried lo open the door by tho bell-pull, and hieknpped awfully, and saw everything in thc room trying toget around on the back side ov mc; and in seltin down in a chair i didn't wait long cnuff for it to git exactly under me when it was goiri round, and i set down a little loo soon and missed tho chair about 12 inches, and couldn't get up soon cnuff to take the next one that cum along; and that ain't awl ; mi wife sed i wazaz drunk ax a becs.t. and a;; i sed before, i began to spin up things freely. If lager beer iz not intoxicating, it used me most almighty mean, that i know. Still i hardly think that lager beer iz intoxicating, for i hav ben told so; and i am probably the only man living who ev? er drank enny when his life was nol plumb. I dolf t want to say anything agin a harmless temperance bovridge, but if i ever drink any more, it will be with mi hands tied behind me, and my mouth pried open. I dorri think lager becriz intoxicating, but if i remember right, i think it tastes to mu like a glass ov soap suds, that a pickle had bin put tew soak in. GUANO ! GUANO ! !
