scoiiMU, 3ior i.y ;n.v. While proud yoin :g women are waiting for a splendid match, and rejecting good offers in hope of g.-lting better ones, they not unfreoaien; ly oveifaed their market; and in the end ate lain to accept any oiler they can get, in order lo av id what they collider the more dreadful alternative of living and d iv.z fid maids. ?llly drav, of Tppingtown. ' a very pretty ls, and a very pre.nd one. She was the seventh daughier of I ):- con Nehcmiah (ir.iy, a moilei ale firmer, who, to tax his ability to the ut

most, could not give his daughters each

a setting out exceeding the value of two

hundred dollars. Her six sisters had

all married respectable farmers a:, d me

chanics, and were well to do in tin

world. Pat Molly, who was the beauty anil pride of the family, resolved to

look a Utile lusher than her si:-t rs

She would not take up with the hum-

drum filltrs the farmers and mechanics of Toppinglown not she. She wondered her sifters had no more respect for themselves than to marry such coarse, unmannerly cri!!rs. For her part, she meant to have a man that wafotnebody. Before she was fairly eighteen, she began to he wooed. Her beauty, the respectability of the Deacon, the Deacon's w ife, and indeed the w hole family, early procured her plenty of suitor. ut they were rot to Mis Mdl"s tate: and though she felt some little vanity in being wooed, even by farmots and mechanics, she was not to be t!m won.. Her first lover was Joshua Plough-

share, lie was a si!ht. indu-tinai-.

moral young man, of iw enl y-three, w r ii

to live, and ro-olvcd on gtttini; a w.ie

Jle was quite taken with Molly (!ray.

insomuch that he never passed her in

the street or saw her at church, hut his heart beat as though it would llv out

of his jacket.

"She's an all-nred hamhome gal,

that, said he to himself, "and if I could

only marry her, I fhould be the happi

est Idler in all JL oppmgtown. Indeed Jo.-hua was so smitten will

the Deacon's pretty d. (tighter, that he

led a lavnrilo bay hliv alter ti;e name

of the Deacon's daughter. The operations of his heart had an effect even upon hi ou!:ide; and lie took uncommon pains to appear spruce nt church, at evening parties, and v. herever there w as the least probability ot meeting with his charmer. Indeed he laid out more money upon clothes than Lis habits of economy would otherwise have permitted, merely to render his person attractive to the eyes of Mis 3hdly. Thus he endeavored ' nuke a favorable impression upon her heart. But on the subject of love; it was a long time before he ventured to break the ice. He looked, and bin-hod. and sighcd, but said not a word on the theme which he most wished to speak upon. At length, however, his resolution wascrewed to tlio slh king point ; and on..Sunday evening, in t!;e m nth of .Uaj , beheld Joshua tying his bay li!!v to a book at one corner of Deacon Gray"? bouse. ?lo!ly was looking oe.t of the. window at the time wheiher in expectation of a spaik, or mere Iv to enjoy the beauties of Uu; spring, hi-tory s.ii;!i not but as soon as she saw Mr. Pl.:i Jssharc ride up, she. modestly withdrew behind the curtain. As soon as Jur-hoa had puiled down the legs of his unmentionables, whi h. sooth to say, had slipped up very coa tiderably for w ant of straps, he tapped at the door; but so timidly, that his heart beat nearly as loud as "his hand. "Walk in!' said the Deacon in a loud cice, ia order to drown the noise of the dog, who, like many other unmat.neilv cur-, always received stra.;g-i? with a bark. Notwithstanding, however, the Deacon spoke loud, Joshua did not hear bin), and was obliged to knock again. " Walk in!" replied the Deaeen louder than before; but justat that instant, in addition to I he balking of the dog. the geese set up a most obstreperous cackling; and Joshua, ncailv discouraged, was f.in to knock a third time; when the Deacon, having kicked the dog under the table, opened the door, and w e lcomed in the young man. The pesky dog ami the geese," said be, "make such a racke t there's no hearing one's-?. If sneak, i hone you're well
