Usages of Courtship.
One evening, in guy party ut'Mr. Irving'g,
the subject turned upon female beauty, und a
gentleman of the company asserted tliHt the
youngeit daughter of Mr. Smith at blonde
wa tho most beautiful girl in the cny. 1
inalanlly resolved to atisfy myself, and nli p -ping
out of the room, I went straight to Mr.
Smith's homo, nnd rune the bell.
The door was epenedby the youngest daught
er herseil, win) explained lheunusu.il circiim
tanca by any injr that it liuppcned thai there was
no one in the house except her parents and her
elf.
I looked earnestly at the maiden, and found
her beautiful and gracey.il beyond all uctcrip
"Vhy notr answered she, "but coine in and

We parted late in the evening, with a tender
embrace all was settled between us.

the evening the bride stepped into my carriage,
at her father's door, and went with me to my
old house.
I soon found that it was easier for a man to
become a bridegroom than a wine husband. We
plagued each other constantly in the beginning,
out of pure love, till from continued vexation, a
coldness ensued, which we both felt, but could
not account for.
Yesterday, my little lady would not allow me
to leave her sile, and to-day she found it good
to visit her brother, ten miles in the country,
without bidding me adieu, or naming the time of
her return.
Two days after this, hasty messengers came,
one after another I must come I should come
Without me she could have no peace.
I went and the joy of re-union seemed as if
it would never end.,
On the following day I was again a burden.
I left her again with a cold parting, and that self
. same night came the repentance by an extra
post she could not live without me I must
hasten back.
This certainly would not do in this way all
my identity would be destroyed.
