In those for.qnate years it was that Colone Perr paid ‘als court to one of the loveliest of iphia’s ever lovely belles, and bad the weah escape from a second marriage. Whey met—* twas in acrowd;"’ and each was smitten with the other's pleasant qualities. Again, he saw her at her father’s table, wh hrs attentions were equally pointed and w come. A fete-a-tete, which he sought, was in- terrupted by the entrance of her father, but her manner seemed to beckon him on. He was almost in love. Summoning her father to his «partments by note, and the old gentleman ap- pearing within the hour, the enamored one came to the point with a promptness and self- possession impossible in a lover under forty. “Ts Celeste engaged ’”’ “She is not.” “Would it be able to her parents if Col Burrshould make overtures for her hand?” “It would ‘be most agreenble.”” The tefty had gone to spend some days six pile? into the country, and thither her lover vides the next morning, with an eager but com- posed mind. Celeste enters the drawing-room, ‘though he ‘bad not asked especially for her. ‘Conversetien ensues. She is all wit and gaiety; more ‘che.rming than ever, the lover thinks. ‘He tries to turn the conversation to the sub- ject rearest his heart; but she, with the good- humered, graceful malice of a lovely woman, -dofenia his endeavors, and so at last, quite cap- #ivated, he takes his leave. |, , The same hour on the follow! morning finds him, once moro fete-a-tete with the beautiful Celeste. Conversation again. But this time the great question was put. To the surprise of this renowned lady-killer, Celeste replies that she is firmly resolved never to marry ! “I am very sorry to hear it, madam; I had Promised myself very great happiness, but can- not blame your determination.”’ She ied: “No, certainly, sir,you cannot; for I reeolleet to have heara you express sur- Prise that any woman should and you ve such reasons, and with so mac! ‘eloquence as mcde an indelible impression upon my mind.” Sage a = received the rebuff ‘with perfect courtesy good humor. The parted the best friends. sf ~ Have you any commands to town, madam? I wish you good morning.”” Two days passed. Then a note from Celesie Surprised the rejected, informing him that she ‘was in town for a few hours, and would be glad *o see him. He was puzzled and hastened to her for a solution. The interview lasted two Jhours, in the course of which the tender subject ‘was daintily touched, but the lover forebore to renew ‘his suit, and the conversation ended without result. Next day another note from the lady, sent in from the country, expressing *\ an unalterable determination never again to listen to bis suit, and requesting that the sub- Ject might never be renewed.” ; Late vtemesenires ee ate urning to his ng t ice Pesident learned that ate had been there three times that after- noon to deliver a messege to him, but had refused to say from whom it came. At last olonel Burr’s servant had traced the boy to the ‘town residence of Celeste. Early next morn- ‘ing the message came. Celeste requested an interview. Post haste the Vice President hied *to the of his beloved. He found her ~eng: with a visitor, but observed that she “was agitated upon his entrance and impatient ‘or the departure of her At length they were alone, and waited for her to state her rea- sons for to seo him. With extreme embarrassment she stammered out after several vain attempts to speak, that she feared her note had not been couched in terms sufficiently polite, and she had therefore wished for an opportunity to apologize. She could utter no more. He, eXpeoting no such matter, stared in dumb aston- ishment, with an absurd half grin upon his vontinance. As she sat deeply engaged in tear- ing to pieces some roses, and be in pinching new corners in the rim of bis hat—she all blushes and confusion—he confounded and speechless—the pair, he afterwards thought wou! e madea capital subject for a painter. He was the first to recover power toarticulate. Denying round- ly that the fatal note was anything but polite and proper. he offered to return it, proposed that itshould be considered canceled,and begged to be allowed to call the next morning and re- new h it. To this she objected, but faintly. Waiving bis request for a formal permission, be changed the subject, and after an hour’s not anpleasant Sem arp took his leave. le now confe: to Theodosia, (his daugh- ter.) to whom the affair had been J vine tially related, from day to day, that he was in the condition of a certain country judge, before whom a cause had been too ingeniously argued by the lawyers. “ Gentlemen of the jury,”’ said the judge, “ you must get along with this cause as well as you can; for my part, I’m swamped.” Bat the sapient Theodosia was not puzzied in the least. “She meant,” wrote joaia, “from the beginning to say that awful word, yes; bat not te say it immediately, she told you that you had furnished her with arguments agains matrimony, which in French means, please gir, to persuade me out of them — Pat you took it as a plump refusal, sad wal'ced off. She called you back. What more could she do? I would have seen Cae to J «pan before I should ha e done so much.”’ owever, the offer of was never re- newed. The lover was ly himself unde- cided as to the desirableness of the match. But between him and Celeste there was always a tender friendship, and for many months it seemed likely enough that at some unexpected moment the conel word would be spoken. HOW TO PRESERVE WOMEN. There is pea in the world that we think so much of as we do of women. Our mother is & woman—wife, sisters, and pretty cousins, are wonten; and the daughters will be if (eaven spare them!) they live long e: . And there is a love of woren in general h we do not deny. A fine, magnificent spesimen of the sex, fall of life and health, a or Par red cheek, and flashing eye, is soweth: t to look at as she illuminates the humdrum sidewalks, and every-day streets, A fine steamer, under full headway, with colors flying, is rather a pretty sight—rathor stirring and inspiring: we pull up our tired nag to see her pass. and admire the swell she cuts. Comparatively, however, the steamer sinks into i nificance, Pp ir, by the side of a well kept, well dressed woman. ‘There is no rubbing it out; women are the or- nament, charm, blessing, beauty, and bliss of life—men’slife,we mean, ofcourse. Any means that can be devised for preserving them should be publicly made known. They are different from any other kind of fruit. You cannot pickle them. You cannot do them up in sugar and set them in a cold room, with paper soaked in brandy over their mouths. You can- not pat them up im cans and seal them up air- tight, without injuring their form and flavor. Now, a$ men are so dependent upon woman for life's choicest blessings, a proper mode of pre- serving them becomes of great moment, and we are sure that the public will thank us for an infallible receipt. Have the feet weil protected, then pay the nextattention to thechest. The chest VA the repository of the vital organs. There abides the heart and lungs. It is from the impres- sions made upon these organs throwgh the skin, that the sbiver comes. Jt is pature’s quako—the alarm bell at the onset of danger. A woman never shivers frow the effeet of cold upon her limbs, or ids, or head; but let the cold strike through her elothing on her chest, and off goes ber teeth into a ehatier, and the whole organism is in a commotion. One sudden has slain its tens of thousands. Therefore, whether the feet are well looked after, never forget the chest. These points attended to, the natural conneetion of the dress will supply the rest, aud the woman is ready for the air. Now let ber visit her neighbors, shop upoe the puns sad nels bode gelatine the fun of tt e Keep away from the stove or register.
