Sca.n?la.loas. Wo turn tho author of the following dog? gerel over to tho tender mercies of the Ladies. We make no apologies for him, as ho has neither youth nor age to recom? mend hiui to clemency. We have reason to believe that this net of his was the re? sult of maturo deliberation. Hear what he has to say: As along the street 1 blundered, Much 1 marveled, much I wondered; Se ing sights and things that morl al Xever saw or dreamed before; On thc pavement came a rapping As <>> foot-falls gently tapping, And ? heard a muslin -flapping, Which mv eve would fain explore, "'Tissoraot?malo," then I muttered I bad seen tho thing before Only lhis.and nothing more. . Came this female sweeping by mo; Pcarfng sho should chance to spy inc, Suddenly I stepped into a Friendly, wailing, open door: Thence I saw the lovely maiden - Bting from some distant Aden .VII perfumed and dry goods laden. Piss mo ami go on before; Naught had I todo but follow And note down tho things she wore, 'Twas a myVtc^y to explore. And 7 found-by close inspection That ber haughty tipper section. Something chance bad called a bonnet, On its pericranium wore; And her breast was heaving slowly, 'Neath a garment fashioned Jowly, And ? knew tho movement wholly, I had never seen before; For I knew 'twas "p-teut heavers" That this radiant maiden wore, Only these and nothing more. And her cheeks .vero full and rosy - I could tell you, inter nos a Secret that a druggist told mo Offne color that sho wore Yet her cheeks were, very pleasing. But her look at me was freezing, And s'.ie showed a sign of sneezing, As ehe swept along before; And sh" sneezed a pair of "plumpers" Out at least a ard before; O dy this and nothing moro. Then T not iced an uncertain Lifting of the muslin curtain. That her fei t had deftly hidden From my errant eyes before; With each lift came a desire That 'twould lift a little higher, And at last it did aspire Higher than 1 had seen before; And 1 knew it was a "tilter" That titis saintly maiden wore; Just a "tilter" -nothing more. And tho tilting and tho rocking Up and down the splendid stocking, Gartered by a bluish ribbon, That I chanced to see she wore. Showed mc-"twas a sight for weeping. That a pair of calves were creeping Out ol'place, as she was sweeping Like a stately queen before; Calves that she had lately purchased From a fane y dry goods store, Patent calves-and not much mot e. And the fluttering and th? flapping Of this maiden's gaudy Wrapping fchowe-d me sights thai never mortal Eye had dared to see before; Sights revealed by every lifting Of the folds of muslin drifting 'lound her, which the winds were shifting Eye-ward, higher, moro ami more; Sights that unto mortal vision Never were; revealed before, Nameless here forever more. And while' thus her rigging fluttered, Much 1 wondered, and 1 muttered: ''And you call this thing a woman That is trouncing on before; Sin- the brazen doll of fashion, Wrappedin one tremendous passion; Sunken from her noble station, To the thing that goes before; Oh! that every nlortal vision Should such mystery explore." This 1 muttered-nothing more. And the thought came o'er me gushing, "Where has gone the art of blushing That we loved in wife or maiden. In the saintly days of yon:?" ('all me, if von will, uncivil, While I name her "thing of evil," And I wish tho very devil Had the toggery she wore. Ami again she were arrayed in Dresses like her mother wore, Vanished now forever more. BUSIUV ENCAGED* "It must be dono, Dick, my boy," said my uncle, mournfully, tis ho lilied his glass ?md pushed tho claret tomo, "dome, now, make up youri mind; off with you to-morrow, and success attend you." "My dear undo, once more let mo-" "My dear nephew, you Lave done it so often that repetition is useless. ? am not a harsh relative, or I should simply say, 'Dick, go and De married;' <?r, ns my theatrical prototype-espe? cially ir wealthy-was wont to ex? press himself, '.Don't talk to me,? young sir. Off, puppy, and be mar? ried, or uever see my face again.' No, my dear Dick, I belong to a race of civilized uncles, and I confine my? self to tx line of argument which might to weigh more with you thun auy commands of mine. It was the desire of your good father that yon should marry before yon were twenty six." "l>ut I am not twenty-six, and "You will be in a month," return? ed my uncle, with wonderful recol? lection. "Why, there's not a day to lose." "Wei!, but, my dear sir,-" I began, with some consternation. "I'll cut this matter short," said my uncle. "You remember what the great duke said to that other strong headed veteran-when India was in sore uetd-TOK or /.'" "Perfectly. By-the-ivy, now, what .lo you think, sir, would have boen the result, supposing Napier-" "We will pursue, that branch of the subject on ti futuro occasion," said Sir Richard, dryly. "In the mean? time, go where love, if uot glory, awaits you, together with, I should imagine, about ?d,000." "It appears, then, that my wife is already found." "Found, yes. Selected, no," said my uncle. "There is more than one candidate for my affections?" "There are -hit me see," said my uncle, calculating, "nine." "Niue?" "My old friend and college-churn, "Rob Crowdie, has uino daughters," said Sir Richard Purkiss. "One-a sweet, charming girl-is unhappily deformed. Out of tho remainder, Crowdie is anxious-and so am I that you should select thc partner of your life; and, my dear boy. since 1 hare never known you express any? thing but au indifference, almost amounting to contempt, for the entire sex, I trust you will tho moro readily fall into our views." "I know so little of these good poo plo-" "Don't call them 'good people,' sir, as if they were fishwives," said my uncle, a little warmly. "If you don't know them better, the fault's your own. They like yo?i, Dick. Como, 1 may say that-and-and-I fear I am telling taler.; but I am by no moans sure that you have not (unintention? ally, of course.) somewhat compro? mised the peace of mind pf Miss-of une of them, already." "I'm glad it's only one," I said, laughing. "Rut aro you serious? If so, you should at least tell me frankly to which of these ladies you refer." "There, you must excuse mc. That I cannot do," said my uncle, myste? riously. "No. Were I to indicate Miss Crowdie, I might be doing an injustice to Miss Sophia, or, by point? ing, however indirectly, to Miss Lucy. I might divert your ideas from my pretty Mattie, whose claim, without prejudice to Ethel, might only bc exceeded by my little Laura Jane. In short-" "Enough. Let the doubt remain. It gives a mysterious charm to the expedition. But there is still a dif? ficulty." "7see none," said my uncle, impa? tiently. "Supposing, among so many, I should find it impossible to make J iy selection V" "Oh, isr/mtall," said Sir Richard, much relieved. "I think that obsta ele might bo easily overcome. Let Crowdie choose. He isthebest judge of his own children. Yes; lam clear you could not do better than refer it entirely to him. And I think I car promise you, Dick," added my uncle, cheerfully, "that he has already made up his mind." "I am sure he is very kind," said I. "But, uncle, to-morroir?" "As I have already observed," re turned Sir Richard, 11I/<JU or I. Mj brother's earnest desire was that then should bc a direct heir in our family and he named twenty-six as the lates age to which he could wish your mar riage deferred. You have neglected to make your choice, and, hang me if I think you ever will. "Now, marl me, if you don't, I sJiatt. I am tole men do marry at sixty-generali; some chit of eighteen-aud I know ; pretty little thing of thc sort, (she' at school, not a hundred miles hence, whom, as your aunt, you could no fail to revere. As for my testament ary intentions, Dick, I have neve made a mystery of them. You ar my heir. But if I marry, my wif and children will take away tho bul! of the fortune I would fain have ha? descend upon you. Come, Dick, se mo free from this responsibility. (1 and visit these good friends, to-moi row, and let your first letter annouue to me that you are engaged. The kind old man extended hi h?nd. 1 pressed it in acquiescence and the next day departed for thc ri sidence of Mr. Crowdie. Not being quite certain wheth<5 my uncle had prepared the family fe my visit, I thought it expedient t give it the appearance of n morn in, call, and, accordingly, leaving m luggage at the village inn, I strolle up to the mansion. The whole famil were in thc garden, and thither I pr< cccdcd. The party assembled on the law was of appalling dimensions. Abor eighteen young ladies and oneyoun man were engaged at croquet; whil Mr. and Mrs. Crowdie, with Alic? the deformed, reclining on a chai couch, looked on. Six of tho playei eliminated themselves from tho con pany, and came to greet me. "Now comes thc question, thought I, "of which of these fail cheeked maidens have my dangeron attractions and assiduous attentioi proved the bane?" Miss Mattie, with her brown, fran eyes, was quicker than the rest, an gave me her hand. "It isn't you," I thought, and di missed her gently back to her garni Miss Crowdie followed, langhin gaily. She had a wide, but ham some month, and pearl-white teetl "Nor you," I thought. "Just in time, Mr. Purkiss," eric Miss Laura Jane, shyly offering mo mallet. "Doubtful-ha!" was my refiei lion. Miss Sophie gave me neither han nor word, but just lifted eyes of tl co. >r of a forget-me-not, and droppi them again, while a slight but ri( blush passed over her smooth chce] "Aha!"' 1 whispered to myself. Mr. and Mrs. Crowdie now joinc the group. Tho lady was quiet ar reserved, and wore a ^ort of astonis: cd look, which was said to have bet not always habitual with her, bi had increased with the advent of cac successive daughter, until the biri of Laura Jane placed her in a concl tion of permanent amazement, which no languago w s apparent adequate; for she never ?oke, exec in answer, or in faint disclaimer the rallies and observations porp tually attributed to her by lier fae tious husband. The latter was bluff, plain-spoken man; so plain, in? deed, that to mistake him for vulgar would have been a pardonable erior, hud he not prided himself upon that very bluffness, -esteeming it an essen? tial characteristic of the good old count ry squiae. "Ha, ha, hil!" was his greeting, with a poke in the ribs, which 1 cle? verly dodged. "Here you find us at our daily sports, mid precious "finikin stuff it is. No bowls, or leap-frog-, I or single-stick now. Croquet, sir, I croquet is the game. It's imbecile in principle and absurd in practice. It tends, I am told, to softening of the brain, but, by a. wise provision of nature, those most devoted to tho game appear to bo endowed with a less proportion of the organ." "What I see before me somewhat contradicts your theory, sir." "Oh, my daughters are no fools. L don't mean that. They play because they have good ankles. Airs. Crowdio often tells me she never saw a string of wenches with cleaner pasterns." ; "Oh, Philip!" said Mrs. Crowdie, "how caji you?" "And how is my good old friend, hey?" continued Mr. Crowdie, put? ting his hands behind him, and look? ing as burly as he possibly could. "Not married yet? Faith, 1 expect to hear it every day. As Airs. Crowdie observed to me, he's just the i oily I old hov to do it!" "()li. Philip, really-" protested Mrs. Crowdie. "Come, Dick the younger, if i may call you s<>, for hang nu; if your uncle doesn't look as young as yon, go and take a club or mallet, or what? ever they call it, with those impatient hussies, and, when you want, to be refreshed with rational conversation, come back, as my wife always says, to MS." "Oh, Philip!" "Stop one moment. Here's a girl of mine you have hardly ever seen. Mr. Purkiss. my darling," lie added, tenderly leaning over her. Alice raised herself a little, and smiled. Such a smile-soft, bright, saint-like-as if rather yielding than seeking pity. I bowed, mechanical? ly, lower than my wont, and, next minute, found myself in the imbe? cilities of croquet. The game, as it chanced, came to a premature end if, to such a sport, such an end can be possible-those ladies not belong? ing to the house having to seek their respective homes. The rest dispers? ing in different directions, it so hap? pened that I was left alone with the pretty Sophy. I was really astonished at this girls beauty. Why had I never noticed it before? lier sweet yet timid maimer perfectly captivated me. I was angry when the dressing bell announced that we must part. To my great surprise, I lound a room prepared for me, and my .port? manteau-surreptitiously sent, for from the ian-unpacked. This was a good sign. I'hurried my dressing, thinking all thc time of Scfphy's eye.--. A change was coming over me. I bad always abhorred the thought of marriage. Now tho pros? pect gave me a thrill of delight.
