It will be deemed vanity at my age to say hat at twenty -five I was possessed of a full share of the ordinary personal charms (H voutli. Within a Utile of the Chesterfieldian standard of height, ;five fret ten, with locks black, and glossy as the raven's wing ( alas ! the driven snow is not whiter now !) with fair compiexion, cheeks glowing with the red tide of youth and health, and possessing what is generally considered sufficient gootl sense and education for all the practical pur poses of life, it may be thought that my ex perience in matters of the heart ought to have proved an exception to the rule that 'the course ol the true lover never did run smooth.' But, alas ! not f o ! It was my fortune to become acquainted with a young lady pos sessed of many fliarm?, mental, moral, and personaf, and so superetninent in eacji, that it was indeed impossible for me to avoid falling-, as I did, desperately in love with her. , . , As far as glances of the eye, tremors of the voice, and occasional iuuendos might go, I doubt not that I succeeded in imparting to per a knowledge of the state of my heart ' l ! ana I win not presume upon your patience so much as to detail the exfctacy of joy will which I first discovered, through similar me - '. p f i . - uia, a reciprocuy oi leeiing on tne part o the young lady. Let it suffice to say that this was the case, and that the time came when it was incumbent on" me to make a distinct avowal of my love. T(his after long and perplexing mental debate, I resolved to do by letter ; and after sonne forty epistles on as many sheets of gilded paper, I finally succeeded in forming-a letter, amounting to about six, lines, containing as I thought the condensed quintessence of ever' tjiing that could or ought to be said on the subject. Of this precious morceaiti I retain now but slight recollection. I That it abounded with terms expressive of pure, warm, ardent, glowing, undying,everlasting and unsurpass ed affection,1 I haw; not lite least doubt. But unfortunately, tlws little specimen of epistol ary excellence was scarcely finished, when, chancing to peruse some of the experience of a predecessor in the paths of love, I read that nothing was more unwise nr dangerous, than'making an- offer of one's hand and heart by means of pen and paper. Vith the credulity of a simple mind, I at once gave implicit credence to this doctrine, and frightened at the fearful precipice which 1 hail so narrowly avoided I immediately des iroyed my letter, and resolved to declare myeelf in person,- with my own lips and voice, and to hear with my own ears the reply which; was to seat my destiny. f Never did an Alexander, Wallace, or a I Napoleon, feel the inspiring effects of ahero- I ie resolution more powerfully than I felt the 1 influences of this. : I had resolved I would t execute ! I walked the streets with a proud conciousness ot the heroism of my resolution; and in the heightTvf my pride, fairly feared lest in the woids of the poet I should strike he stars with my lofty head. But sensible ! of the irnjoerfection of human powers, and conscious Jiat mine in particular were liable to fail in U delicate an emergency, I resolved j at least to write ami commit to memory my declaratory speech. This undignified and foolish thing I did. Instead of trusting to the warm out-pouring of a.: ingenuous heart; which in some way at least' would have managed .to make itself understood and felt, i I committed to memory a cold formula of Avords, to be delivered as the school boy re cites his speechj of which it is sufficient for the purpose of this article to recollect the fal lowing sentence:; v Miss Adams ! will you allow me to offer you my hand and heart ?' ' The fearful hquf arrived. The evenino- of my wonted visit approached, and I found myself sealed by the side of my adored, in the summer evening twilight. The last rays of the setting sun had gradually disappeared from the rosy clbud, that lingered above the west. The full ; moon rose high' in heaven, and one by one the glorious stars became visible : : "In such a might Stood Dido with; a willow in her hand, Upon the wild sea banks, and waved her love To come again to; Carthage." The open window by which we sat look ed out upon a garden stored with a profusion of rich and rare flowers, from which there exhaled, and arose around us, a delicious fragrance, forming a fit atmosphere for such a scene. The time, the silence, the scenery, every thing was appropriate ; and she, the beautiful, the almost unearthly seemed, by intuition, to understand my thoughts and intentions, as with head bent down she gaz ed (with a slight blush upon the fair cheek around which her auburn curls were playing,) upon a moss-rose, which she was earnestly engaged in pulling to pieces. I was employed in the equally serious oc cupation of opening and shutting a small fancy snuff-box which I held in my hand. " Alas ! where now was the Alexandrian or Napoleon courage that inpired me 7 I felt my valor oozing out of the palms of my hands. But at length, summoning resolution, like a man upon a scaffold who wishes to die with at least seeming fortitude, or to use a more forcible illustration, gathering together and concentrating, as it were, all the energies of iny mind, after the manner of one abottt to submit to that most inhuman of earthly tor tures, the extraction of a tooth : I sayj with such energy as this, I raised my eyes to those of Isabella, and in the language of ray prepared speech said Miss Adams !' ,. The uncertainty and startling emphasis with which this rather formal commence 'rnent was delivered very seriously frightened both parties. The rose dropped from her fingers, the box from mine, and I was only able to follow up this impressive exordium with some common-place remark about the beauty of the evening after which we re lapsed into our former silence. Gathering, however, energy from defeat, I made after a slight pause a second attempt. 14 Miss Adams," said I, in a slow; solemn sepulchral voice, will you will you will vou allow me to offer you to offer you a pinch of sftvff?" " With pleasure, sir," replied a soft sweei voice, which in contrast wjth my own, soun ded like a strain of soft music following up the rumblings of an earthquake. I felt my eyes starting from my head. I felt that the veins on my forehead were swollen like the streams of spring. I felt the blood mantling over face, brow, and neck. I heard the loud beating of my heart; and in an agony of both bodily and mental pain to which the rack, the wheel, and the gibbet were paradise, I rushed from the room, hurried to my home, entered my own chamber, locked, doubly, trebly locked my door, lest any one should observe my shame, and vented my spleen in idle imprecations on my own stupidity. An hour's walk across my chamber serv ed, however, to calm my spirits ; and with a composure that seemed really supernatural, compared with my recent agitation, 1 sat down and wrote : "Dim I s a b e i x a Take pity on an unhappy Youth, who is too deeply in love with you to utter two consecutive words in your presence. I am miser able till I hear from you." The note was immediately despatched, and in half an hour I was the huppiest man in the universe. My Isabella proved a pattern of excellence. I was never offended with her but once, and then she dispelled my wrath by asking me, in a mock serious tone ol it voice, " Will you will you allow me to offer vou a pinch of snuff?" THE GENTLEMAN. True gentlemen are to be found in every grade of society. The ploughman, with his oroau sun-ourni nanu, ins nomeiy uress, ami his open countenance, is often found to be possessed of more real attributes of a gentle man than the enervated man-millmer, who is much more careful of his gloves than of his honor ; whose shirt bosom must be as a virgin's fame ; and who, if one curl of his glossy wool were displaced, would be thrown into strong convulsions. 1 lie blood which flows in a rich and generous stream through the heart of a Russian serf, is as pure in the sight of God, as the life current which eddies round the princely fountain of the highest of England" noblemen. It is a false, illiberal idea, that, because a man cannot claim alli ance with the proud and wealthy, his name should-be stricken from the list of gentlemen We are all created alike our mothers suffer the same pangs ; and shall the one who is ushered into life upon a silken couch spurn him whose limbs were first laid on a truss of straw? Which class, from time immemorial has shed honor and glory on the earth the nrmifl nritrfrnt- rfethp nfinsnnt ? hose proud aristocrat, dfc-the peasant names are enrolled in the dazzling pages of - i history the man of fashion, or the man of nature ? Whose voices are most heard, and to most effect, throughout the world ? Why, those men bofn m poverty, but clothed by truth with the jewelled robe of honor. Does any reference to anv thing but their own sit the mero.,fact of a man's being able to make uatjon, wishes and happiness, and their union a Dow witu scrupulous exactness, constitute him a gentleman ? Shall the children of one mother be divided , because one portion are gifted withracefulness of action and coxcombry of demeanor, while the others will not stoop to cringe at flattery's fawn, or waste the hours given them by Heaven to improve, in the useless study of the puerile forms of fashion ? Oh, how glad it makes one's heart, to see the painted lizards' trod- den under foot by the gentlemen of nature ! to see tliem shrink away at tne approacn oi umiesi men tearing mai uiey may ue can- l . ' . i . i i. li eu upon to acknowledge their own lnienoriiyi Who is the gentleman? He who can boast of nothing but a name upon which dis honor has never thrown its leprous poison. He who can lie down upon hi pillow at night, knowing that he has done his neighbor no injury ; whose heart is never one's eyes and blubbering over all the ills closed to pity, andWhose arm is always that flesh is heir to.' Take the evils with nerved to redress the" injuries of the oppress- the good, and bear it like a philosopher. ed- Who smiles not at misfortunes, and Bed eyes and faces of a longitude -like that who mocks not the affliction of his fellows, of a horse, are any thing but agreeable, plea He who looks upon all merj as equals, and sant or greeting companions ; in fact they fears not to stand in the presence of a king, are scandalous looking affairs. The best way The man who is guided by moral honor, and is always lo keep a jovial or cheerful, heart. not obliged to have laws made for his obser vance. He who has the true democracy in his soul whodesires and gives to every raan the enjoyment of his own opinions, pro vided those opinions do not infringe the de crees of justice in its most rigid sense. Such a man, and only such s one, should dare lay claim to the proud appellation of "gentle man." Thank God ! we are in a country where the field of honor arid renown is open to ail. The lowest freeman in the land is in part the governor of its proudest officers. He who tills the earth walks proud dignity of natural ri-rjit, j erect in the knowinir that he cannot be oppressed while he respects himself. There is no distinction of classes here the blacksmith and the senator the shoemaker and the PresidenH-aH hail each 'other as gentlemen." Crescent City, EARLY MARRIAGES.' We happened to hear a long argument the other evening upon the policy lof early mar riages. It is unnecessary to repeat.the pro and con it is unnecessary for us to hear it, because under ordinary circumstances, ;and i;i ordin ary situations, there can be biit one side to the question. As soon as a man's mind is matured enough to. make his choice, and at twenty-two or three it is, he should be ready to be married. The common argu ments against early matches, that the husband cannot be " worth enough," pecuniarily, is not only a fallacy in itself, but productive of false calculations and hopes bu the part of the bride, and of the tendency to produce the very distress it is intended to advert. Thus it is that arises the morbid disposi tion so prevalent among misguided parents of wishing their daughters to bestow their hands and hearts upon those who bring pelf alone as a recommendation. With jwhom virtue and talent has no weight, nor inoral worth, correct deportment, and industrious disposi tion has no influence. So the young , suitor possesses wealth, it is sufhcientjlo make him appear in the eyes of the narrojw-contructed and avaricious parent, the very paragon of perfection 'and excellence. Thus it is, that proud matrons, who are puffed tiip with infla ted vanity, imbibe a feeling ofjutter abhor rence and disgust for a young man, who pleads for her daughter's hand, with no other accompianment than purity pt character, honesty of heart, and bright accomplishment ol intellect, and whose only crinjie is poverty. When one weds now, it is presumed as a natural inference that he has the income of the 44 expectation" which f will; warrant the couple in extravagance. Ie may be honest and sensible enough to tell his wife to the contrary and he may have good sense suf ficient to indicate to her what is her proper course in relation to expenses. But the whole round of gossiping acquaintance are not so easily put off the couple arej thus reluc tantly beckoned, persuaded, and driven into fashionable extravagance, uponj first setting out. 1 hey strive to step at once into com petition in style of living and expense, with people of the most extravagant and spendthrift character,and to ape the misnamed hopitalities of those who entertained them in their own state of single blessedness. If a couple are so weak m indeed as to think lhey musl )Ursue such a courseias this, it is no matter how late thev mairvi and belter late than never. If they make up their minds to a moderate and sensible establishment if they understand their character, and have strength of mind to abide by a good resolution the earlier they mai ry 'the better. I he cost of almost any one vice or fidlvi into which bachelors are betrayed, by lack of employ- ment and a home, the lollies imp which they run to supply that place in their hearts and in their time, which a good wife tills so happily, the unnecessary bachelor expenses in which they-indulge from ir.ere ennui, would more than twice support a family. Marriages in the middle ranlts are much more happy than those of the1 Extreme poor or the extreme rich. By the middle ranks, we mean those wjio have a trkde, profess- sion or avocation, which insure them a liv ing inco.me, and an opportunity jto make pro visions against the day of reverse.
