If my readers (I hope I have come) will accompany me in a plea-ant walk, they may loam iti what estimation the sulject of the following chit-chat, held its authors. "Pis true, sush a course will not suit those who are fond of mvsterv, hut I am not writing a novel or a romance, but detailing a plain matter-of-fact incident. a::d therefore I will let my readers into the sciet as fast a?

"Weli, my old friend, como at las. I have been looking for you some time." "I was detained, in the company of the ladles at Mrs. Phillips'," whither I went with your friend Mrs. Hill." "Ah! I was there but an hour since." "So I learned while there." "Said they ought of me?" "Yes. much more than you would like to hear, perhaps."' "Colonel! but you know me better. Let us seat ourscdve--. here, while you rebate. what you heard from the fashion of Perm's Grove.'' Having seated ourselves, I detailed, m part, tho foregoing conversation, at which he laughed heartily. "What! was there none to take the part of the poor clerk, except Mrs. Hid, among all the fair ones, 1 left?" Yes, there was one. You know it is my business to seek for treasures, that aro hid from the common eye. So soon as I entered the room and bad taken an observation. of its inmates, I observed, sit'ir.g, at its farther side, n young lady w hose appearance interested me much. She seemed to be about twenty years of age. with a thoughtful, yet 'Vdcidedly intellectual cast of countenance. To a casual observer, she would have appeared es not noticing tho conversation g'fook b' around her, but rather cmgoged;0 vv7i:o' bo k she held iti her ban h but I soon perceived she was an attentive observer.

Median, is indeed her name: and she is a jewel, any man might bo proud to wear. Her person is her least attraction; for in conversation, she shows a depth of thought and clearness of judg ment, I have seldom found excelled, even in our own sex." "Y-ou know her then?"' I inquire I. "Yes. Some of my mot pleasant hours, fre parsed in the soeie'y of her and her mother.

Every society lies its sristorary; each has its model, and each its boundary of popularity. Beyond these, there is n dignity nor rank, that is tolerated.

"Yes, Mi?3 Mellan, imperative duties, I can no longer avoid, compel ma to leave this beautiful village, w here I have already lingereJ too long." "Da you design ever to return?" "That depends upon circumstances; but I rather suspect not." "Com?," said she, "let us return to the house."
