L«tty laid down her butler print, wiped her plump, dimpled bands pn a towel, and lookej with surprise at Posy. They were pagsinf fuif to look upon, these two farmer's daughters, who had grown up among Ihe cedar lorests of Maine, and who had never even looked upon Pie walls ol a city. Posy was tall and slight, with braids ot blonde hair, and a complexion deli* oately tinted, like a sea shell. Letty was dark, with vetvei-brown eyes, full red lips, and hair (hat witved iu natural ripplei across her forehead. •Who is it?' sani Letty. Posy seated herself on the low window scat, and made au impromptu fan of her hat-brim. 'Don't yon know that tall, round shouldered,- red-haired, lanterirvisogud man from *Nt)>v Tfiimpshiro,' She sifid, 'who stops at the Ued Lion Hotel, and advertises 'Music taught thoroughly in six lessons'—the tna« who goes around lecturing on the accordeon, and who has opened a singing school,"of evenings, in 'Squire Dennison's big.red barn?'

'Well, it seems that the Red Lion Hotel was al most too tar away from 'Squ're Den* nison's barn for the convenience of this musical prodigy, so he asked Auirt Alexandria to accommodate him wivb bis meals twice a week, on the red»barn evenings; and all tbe time we have been camping out in the pihe woods, Annt Lex has been practicing do—sol-la— mi, with Mr. Greengage.' •Are thev engaged?' cried breathless Letty.

But as the cobwebs of slumber cleared I away from her brain, Auut Alexandria was aroused to the consciousness that the strange sounds disturbing bar dreams was neither church bells uor chimney flues.

And nimbly making her way towards the big pitcher oi water, whicb stood in readiuess for the morning ablutions, Aunt Lex lifted the sash and flurg the whole contents over a dark figare, which wa« dimly visible below by the light ola gibbous moon.

Mr. WeldonN. Edwards published in 1862 a memoir ot Nathaniel Macou io Confederate print aud atoiy generalities thai tell nothing.

Tbon he was elected United States Senator and re-elected, aud be resigned in 1828. In 1824 Virginia cast her votes for him for Vicc-Prevident. Fiom 1801 till 1806 he was Speaker of the House of Representatives. In 1825, 1826 and 1827 he was elected President pro tem. of the Senate. During the period ot nearly lorly years hi Congress be oast more negative votes than any ten other mem* bers, Mr. Ingerscll, of Pennsylvania, ouco sakl tbat Mr. Macon was so periis tently opposed to t lie drift ol things that if be were drowned be would naturally look up stream lor his body.- Ouce, on tpkiug tbe chair ot the House of lteprc* seniaiiyes, be made • this model of a speech; ' GENTLEMEN:- Accept my sincere thanks for the. honor you b*ve conferred upon me. Permit me to assure you that my utmost endeavors will be exerted to discharge the duties ol tbe chair with fidelity, impartiality and industry, and I that I tely with confidence on 'he liberal I and candid support of the House.' This laconio style was characteristic ol the man. When war was declared against Great Britain he sent a copy ol the fol» lowing letter to every postmaster iu the district: WASHINGTON, June 18,1812. 'SIB: War was declared against Great Britain yesterday. NATIIANIEL MACON.' He never .asked any one to vote for liim, nor did lie ever make a speech iu a political cafripaign. In lac), be hM no campaigns. When his term expired he went about his agricultural business pre cisely as if a Congressman was not to be elected. Ho was suoremely indifferent. If the people chose him be accepted the election precisely as a devout man ac» cepts e 'call'.of God to preach. His duty lo tbe people was the first duty iu life it wts bis religion, and lie- did .not con sider tbat lie had no right to.refose them if they elected uim, nor to complain il they should ever have tailed to elect him.

There is no use of disguising the feet that tbe boys who attend our are prettr tough cases on general prin ciples. Not that, they wonld commit crimes, or do things that are parlicwiarly dishonorab:e, lint that they are as (oil ot Ihe old Nick as they can bold.

The chances are that he will come back with a knowledge of draw poker that will para* l\ze au old gambler, aud lie will be sure to be a leader in all the deviltry that is going on. An iilustratiau of this was furnished a abort time ago in oue of our Stute colleges devoted to turuing out pious young men. Tbe class iu elocution wa? furnished with o professor irom a distant city, wbo was very thorough it. hit me'h.als, but he didn't amount to atiyihiug at handling boys. He seemed to iook at them in the class room appeal ingly, as moob as to beg lhentoot.io play any idonkey work on him. Tbe boys saw lie was alraid ot them, and they 'raid for hi to. They got into a discussion over llie proper Way to reuder a passage from-tlie pi>etn. 'The stood on lho Duniing Deck,' wheiioueof the students called the other aliai.
