Love Scono
Mr. Porrs paid his two hundred
and BixtV'bevrnth visit to Miss Clarissa
Cooler the other evening ile lound
her in a rocker, alone in the put lor;
stole his arm around her alabaster neck,
and sip|>ed the nucter of her cherry
lips?a proceeding there was not the
least hurtii itt considering that they had
come to an agreement, and were generally
rejmrted to be on the high road
to matrimony, 'ilie lady took it ali
quietly?even indifferently, to judge
from the lassitude ot her attitude in
the n?cker, her lazy use of her fan, and
her exclamation ot something between
a heigh ho and a ya-hum.

At length P pps propped a promenade,

both, adding:

"Indeed!" said Pop|ie; "what is it

"You ex|>ect our wedding to take

"To be sure I do!"
"Well, I am sorry todisapjioint you,

"Good heavens, Clarissa! what are

"Don't interrupt tne. I mean I can't

"No, Clarissa, it wont satisfy me.?

maybe it would satisfy me. But I
won't Iks satisfied without the reason.'*
"Well, then, you have a reason, and
a g?x?d one?what more do you want?"
"I see how it is?I've courted v?u

"Mr. Poppa, you're a dunce?you're

Pappb reached the door. Clarissa followed

P"pps spoke first.
"Well, dear, what's the matter ?"
"Oh, I think you're so unreasonable
and cruel! Indeed, indeed, I have a

?hut I cannot, I must not tell you

Our friend Bob Crandell visits

to drop into a coffeehouse, where i
