THE VAILED WOMAN.
A ROMANCE OF RBAL LIFE AT CONEY ISLAND. From the Few York Mercury.
About three weeks ago, a family resident in that|virtuous and cool City of Washington were induced to take temporary leave of each other by the fashionable circumstance which transfers wife and children to some cosy summer resort, and casts the forlorn husband and father a reckless voyager upon the ocean of wickeness and temptation, a fairly heart-broken''exile from home," whom foreign splendor is to apt to dazzle, yea, and not in vain.
Congress had adjourned, ana the considerate huiband had secured apartments at long barnch for his loved ones, and felt free to join a number of other similarly situated husbands in looking after their interests in New York. "Can,t you come with us, dear?" the wife asked pleadingly. "Impossible You see by my letters and dispatches that I am needed jn that Wallstreet bake-oven without delay." "Poor dear, and you are sadly in need of recretion," murmured the wife. "Dont fret about me, darling I guess I'll weather it there's Raymond and Copeland, St, Johns and Christy, and a dozen of the 'boys' in the same boat. If they can stand it, I can and so good* bye, love."
Leaving something supposed to be a husband's kiss on the tip of her left ear he departed,
uDright
in the consciousness
of having pref ormed this parting duty with the graciour.ness of a martyr. Mrs. Pips—'tis thus we will designate our friend for "what's in a name?" man by another name would have done the same—gazed after the retreating Pips, as she caresaed between thumb and forefingure the little ear-flap that had receiyed the salute, and as Pips' from vanished there came into her eyes a roguish, we ma}' go lurther and add, a very portentous twinkle.
A few days latter, a jovial male quartette were lounging about a certain down- town pier in the city of New York, waiting for the steamer just then leaving an upper landing on her way to Coney Island.
Our friend Pips formed one of the :waiting qutrtette, and, as if to shorten 1 the time, he joined hi6 jolly compauiohs I^ iq th«|r condensed admiration of the j-f numerous fair ladies, also Coney Islahd bound, when suddenly their attention was arrested by the sudden approach pf a lady accompanied by two gentleman.
By the broiled flesh of Caesar, look at that clipper!" exclaimed Pipa, in excitement. "Did ever you 6ee such a 6uperb form?" "What a beautiful foot!" "What an elegant bust!" "She carries her head like an empress!" "What the does she cover up her face for?" "There ought to j.e a prohibitory law against vails, unless a woman is so ugly that consideration for humanity at large induces her to hide her distressing mug under a blanket "Maybe this is the case with her!" "Whit! That magnificent creature headed with an ugly face? Impossible! 1
There is graca and intelligence in step and motion, and a conscious power of beauty in the curve of that neck. I wish to the Lord she would lift that confounded black blanket of a vail!"
But that vail remained obstinately down during the whole trip, but her ringing laugh and the modulated voice with the most delicious lips, together with a magnetism af manner that attracted everybody else also, kept our friends, with the eager Pips in the lead, like so many Shadows in the track of this vailed siren during the afternoon and evening in the hopes of getting a glimpse—and just a glimps were they favored with, but only of the lower part of her face, as she lifted the tantalizing vail, and exposed a lovely throat while imbibing a lemonade—with just a touch of color in it. "Did you see h«rchin?" Pip6 excited ly remarked "it's perfect, 6imply per.ect!"
O, Pips! Pips! Remember Mrs. Pips and the little rinses. Every body m&de a break for the -. Brighton House, and like a man for gone in the spoons, Pips rushed up to the office desk, mopping his legislative brow furiously AS he glared at the suave and wel*coming clerk exclaiming: "Gillis, see that lady—sandwhiched between those two puppies—d-n their .-luck—who is she, can you tell?"
The suave Gillis gazed long—in fact V^until his eyes snapped with admirrtion— .''Mhen solemnly replied: "I never saw that form before, but if 1 vjfwere a divining rod, I should get at the '^mystery of her face, so quick I would ^make your head swim."
Happy Pips! The superb figure and her party got into a coach, so did Pips land his party, bat Pips somehow got ^y^ Jnext to his vailed attraction. Ye pods! \x"4 how wildly his pulses throbbed as he I ^realized the weight of her animal warmth iu such close contact, that soft, soft warm i.arm againt his own, and O, exquisite deflight! one wee instant his trembling l-^ahand come in lightning contact with her iown dimpled digits.
Pips had, in his day, snatched many happy hcurs from the grudging hand of rfate, but none more heavenly than the .little while during which he sat beside this woman, as thev were driving through ithe high tide waves along the Coney Island beach.
wO,"
he thought, "if one
of those slashing waves would only come into the coach and clasp us in one madly hissing embarce." But no, they got safe-
'T t° the Ocean View House, where he -1 happened to spy the "Atlantic" Cable,
and in a moment he had hold of "mine host's" hand, wringing the very gout out of it, aa lie cried: "Who is that woman in the black vail that high stepper yonder?"
Cable looked long and keenly, at last -he shook his head and muttered: ''Ask me to penetrate the vail of the misty deep, ana I'll discover you a whale tor a pearl—but that woman ia new to me."
In despair, Pips turned away, but he was fop tick iust then the mysterious vail passed, and dropped her fan. Pips had it in his clutch like a flash, and was passing -it to its owner, when, O.Jerusalem Bisque! the- dimpled hand circled about his town. Was he dreaming?—O, no, Pips, •he soueeaed—and, O, Pipa, Pip*, forget

ful of all the Pipses—you squeezed, too, and nearly fainted with delight. He ran to, the office desk, and scribbled on apiece of paper: "Honor me with your acquaintance."
He managed to give it to her, and she managed to let him know that sh#» was agreeable. And when he returned to town that evening, he knew he should meet her again the following day at the same place, with this difference—she would be alone, and so would he until they met. For a week, this awful corrupting influence of a black vail hovered about the male Pips, and resulted in drives, walks, and ala6! that pen mu&t do its honebt duty to truth, even kisses and tender embraces, after nightfall, were registered by that angel who keeps account of our deeds. And still Pips, madly, utterly in love, had never been favored with agaze upon the face under the vai!, nor seen the mouth his lips had pressed.
He told her he was wedded, but not mated his wife was a good wife and good mother, but she was cold, cold, cold Pips nearly cried when he though how "cold" his wife was. Like a lisping dove, his "clipper" listened and rewarded his confidence by a like confession, adding sweetly: "how my desolate heart has yearned for 6uch love as this." 'And do you love me, angle!" "Yeth," corrcctly lisped the voice.
The mercury pen can not do justice to the ecstacy of this moment—such bliss untold is all the warmer left to the im agination. She promised to meet hiin again on the morrow, on the balcony of the hotel at five o'clock in the afternoon, and she would permit him to remove that obnoxious vail and feast his eje?, while the two feasted upon beefbtake and things. O, Pips! not a snore broke the secret silence of your room at the Gilsey House that night, for vou never closed an eye for thinking for the joy to come.
But heaven's vengeance was about to step in this awful career—the morning brought him a dispatch. He read: "Don't fail to catch the first train for the Branch. Be prepared for the worst"
What had happened his Pipses. Great heavens, the agony he suffered! He hunted for a trustworthy friend. "Coysy," said he to Billy Copland, "see that woman for me. Tell her—O, h'l! tell anything, you're good at lying—I'm off to my family,"
Arriving at the Branch, he discoveied that his family had left ten days ago. Feeling like one about to be attacked by a mad bull, he bought a tickfet for home and when he got to his Washington home he was asked by his little Pipses why he hadnot brought mamniaback with him, and he found that the servants were all under the impression that Mrs, P. was with him.
A great, big, ponderous smell twgan to permeate his senses he began to compare notes of peculiarities between the "vailed woman" and his wife, and he felt a sinking sensation about the stomach when he was forced to the conclusion, that his wife and the "vailed siren" were one and the same. He got tearing mad! With the duplicity of a Washington politiciato he secured his wife's N. Y. address by telling the nurse to give him such report about the children as she was in the habit of sending to Mrs. P., as he would forward su~h messages himself hereafter. But no message was sent. The duplex wretch knew silenc would bring the anxious mother .home, aad it did, but the greeting she received was not like one she had expected to give by any means. "Madam," 6aid Pips, with the dignity of a basely deceived husband, "I trust your gerrymandering is at an end, now that you have made yourself the common mouth piece of every frequenter of Coney Island. I am very proud to think that my wife and the mother of my children has had her figure discussed from bust to toe, while her manner excited the rude insolence of every loafer she passed? Really, madam, I gave you credit for better sense than to puppose a trick like that could impose on me and the climax of that ridiculous dispatch—planned like a silly woman you can tell that co- helper of yours at the Branch that you are a pair of minni«6l And I hope, Mrs. Pips, that you are now convinced that your husband is not 'cold' it he meets with a loving response from her who once trusted to that husband's honor, without deserting her children to play the spy upon him*',
Piys got off his lecture with ferand eclat, while trembling in his boots for fear the thing wouldn't work but it did, splendidly, for those "soft, round" arms crept around his depraved neck, and the dulcet voice, without a lisp now—murmured: "Forgive me, darling." "Of course|I will, but a man don't like to hear his wife discussed as if she were a horse, nor does he like to take up her silly folly for the purpose of keeping a lot of confounded fellows from finding her out and getting the reputation of spying on her husband."
Last Sunday night Mr, Pips and the family passed'through New York, on their way to Branch—but Pips look good good care to keep clear of the "boys." But, then, a man's peccadilloes will sniff air sometimes, and he can't fool them as he did his prety wife.
A QJJICK-WITTED YOUNGSTER From the Pittsburg Telegram. Out in one of the suburban towns at the East End, there lives one of the brightest, handsomest, and wittiest five-year-old boys in the country. He has a phenomenal style of saying good things and his two latest are worthy of publication. A short time ago he went witfi his father to see a colt. He patted the colt's head and made qnite a fuss over it, until finally the stable man told him to be careful that the colt did not turn around and kick him. When the little chap went home, his mother asked him what he thought about the colt. *1 like him pretty well," was the reply. "He's real tame'in front, but he's awful wild be* hind."
A few days ago, at the breakfast 'table, his mother said that she dreamt that a man had shot her in the arm and then she woke up. Master Five-year-old lis* tened with becoming gravity until the story was done and then he said: "It's a pity, mamma, you didn't keep on sleeping. You'd have hung that man before you woke up." «t* i: ...

WASHINGTON'S VIEWS LOVE.
SAID TO
BE
THE BULLS-EYE KNOCKED OUT BY A KENTUCKIAN. A Kentucky temperance lecturer thus gets down to work: Barkeeper' in this State pay on an average $2 per gallon for whisky. One gallon contains an average of sixty-five drinks, ana at 10 cents a drink the poor man pays $6 50 per gallon Tor his whisky. In other words, he pays $2 for the whisky and $4.50 for handing it over the bar. Make your wife your barkeeper. Lend her $2 to buy a gallon of whisky for a beginning, and erery time you want a drink go to her and pay 10 cents for it. By the time you hare drunk a gallon she will have $6 50, or enough money to refund the $2 borrowed of you, to pay for another gallon of liquor, and have a balance of $2.50. She will be able to conduct future operations on her own capital, and when you become an inebriate, unable to support yourself, shunned and despised by all respectable persons, your wife will have enough money to keep you until you get ready to fill a drunkard's grave.
THE TERRE HAUTE WEEKLY UAZETfE.
OF
A LETTE TO MISS CUSTIS, H18 WARD.
r. B. J. Lossing, in an article in the P'niladephia Weekly Times, prints a letter written in January, 1795. by George Washington to Eleanor Parke Custis, a grand-daughter of Martha Washington and his adupted daughter. In this he gives her the following advice on the subject of love: '•Mtn and women feel the same inclinations toward each other now that thecalways have done, and which they will continue to do until there is anew order, of things, and you, as others have done, may find perhaps that the passions of your sex are easier raised than allayed. Do, not, therefore, boast too or" too strongly of your insensibility to, or resistance cf its powers. In the composition of the human frame there is a good deal of inflammable matter, however dormant it may lie for a time, and, like an inti mate acquaintance ef yours (a sister just married), when th^ torch is put to it, that which is within you may burst into blaze for which reason, and especially, too, as I have entered upon the chapter of advices, I will read you a letter drawn from this text. "Love is
AN INVOLUNTARY PASSION,
and it is therefore contended that it can not be resisted. This is true in part only, for, like all things else, when nourished and supplied plentifully witn aliment, it is rapid in its progress but let these be withdrawn, and it may be stifled in
Us
birth or much stinted in its growth For example, a woman (the saire mity be said of the other sex) all beautiful and accomplished will, while her heart and hand are undisposed of, turn the heads and set the circle in which she moves on fire. Let her marry, and what is the consequence? The madness ceases, and all is quiet again. Why? Not because there i« any diminution in the charms of the lady, but because there is an end of hope. Hence it follows that love may and therefore ought to be, under the guidance of reason for although we can not avoid first impressions, we may assuredly place them under guard, and my motives for treating on this subject are to show you while you remain Eleanor Park Custis, spinster, and retain the resolution to love with moderation, the propriety of adhering to the latter resolution, at least until you have secured your game, and the way by which it may be accomplished. "When the fire is beginning to kindle and your heart grows warm, propound these questions to it:
WHO IS THE INVADER?
Have I a competent knowledge of him? Is he a man of good character, a man of sense? For, be assured, a sensible woman can never be happy with a fool What has been his walkNn life? Is he a gambler, a spendthrift, or a drunkard? 16 his fortune sufficient to maintain me in the manner I have been accustomed to live and my sisters do live? And is he one to whom my friends can have no reasonable objection? If these interroga tories can be satisfactorily answered, therp will remain but one more to be asked. That, however, is an important one. Have I sufficient grotinds to conclude that his affections are engaged by me? Without this the heart of sensibility will struggle against a passion that is not reciprocated—delicacy, custom, or call it what epithet you will, having precluded all advances on your part. 'The declaration, without the most indirect invitation of yours, must proceed from the man to render it permanent and valuable, and nothing short of good sense and an easy unaffected conduct can' draw the line between prudery and coquetry, it would be no great departure from truth to say that it rarely happens otherwise than that a thorough-paced coquette dies in celibacy as a punishment for her attempts to mislead others, by encouraging looks, words or actions, given for no other purpose than to draw men on to make overtures that may be rejected." k«-\'
SOMETHING MORE THAN A PLAY. Thirty-three years ago a representation of the "Pasbion Play" was enacted at Quebec before an immense audience. It was looked upon by the entire community as sacrilegious and blasphemous but nevertheless the theater was crowded to repletion. In the crucifixion scene, wherein the Savior was nailed, to the cross, the stage appliances and curtains caught fire, and a general stampede occurred. Upwards of fifty were burned or trampled to death. This, at the time, was lookod upon as a special interposition of Divine Providence because of the profane character of the play, and, to this day, the singular conflagration is talked of with only shuddering thoughts. No "Passion Play" has been attempted in Canada since that time.
