Appreciative.

Miss A., who is a teacher of English in a school of high rank in her native State, Mississippi, and who, in spite of her vivacity in conversation, is, perhaps, if anything, too fastidious in her choice of words, was spending the summer at the New York Chautauqua. Her How of spirits made her the delight of the dining table, at which she was first seated, but at the end of a fortnight she was moved by her landlady to another place. A lady from Boston who, had been sitting opposite the Southerner, expressed her regret at the change. “I am so sorry you are going to leave us,” she said, with warmth; “we have all enjoyed your dialect so much.” —Harper’s Magazine.
