After alio finished, wo arose and started fur home. Now, gentle render, I do not mean to make a brag Hcune out of the foregoing ; my only object was lo ventilate my heroine, and let you into u few of tho mysteries of her heing.—And ^trusting that 1 Imvo accomplished that much, we will now with your permission, attend to other matter*.—On the very next night, 1 introduced an old bachelor friend of mine to .Susan. He was near forty, rather dry, and very rich. When we left the ho’use, Mr. Richard Worthall, for tliut wnw hi* name,told uio that lie ad mired my fancy deusedly. 1 frequently met him there afterwards; mid ill lex* than a month, 1 thought the old gentleman show ed the proinonitorie* id a decided ease of love. 1 took it to be rather a curious conjuncture, hut numb ed myself very much at tho fellow's vanity, in sup posing thut he rould get such n girl a* Susan Thorn- ton to wed him. particularly when there was so strong q probability that she would shortly he honor ed with llio offer of the hand of Mr. Harry Luck less. 1 *ay I was surprised; hut when I reflected that love make* fool* of the greatest men, I was sat isfied that the folly of my friend Diek Wnrilitili was quite excusable. 1 smiled at the prospect of such a rival, and suffered him lo go on hi* own way, he- lievidg that lie would come to his sense* during the moment ou which he should make a declaration. As the season advanced, Ptisan uud her cousin Hal ly Thornton made up their mind* to make an iuvu- townrd* her residence, I was overtaken hy Mr. Wortlmll, who said he luid something very joyful, which he wanted to tell me. I went along with liitii to hi* room, hcrntiiig him nil the way, for occu pying time which 1 wished to spend with u more in teresting personage. We entered Dick's room, and lie drew* cork from no little difficulty in breathing, owing to soma mismanagement in introducing the quilD into hi* nostrils. Thu* shut out from nil communication with the cxteriiiil world, and not being nt the time in a mood to commune w ith himself, the tens** Dons of poor Mr. Snooks were truly hojrrihlt. Ilo comforted himself, however, with the reflec tion that they would he of short duration. But his feeling* may ho in some degree imagined, they cannot he described, w hen he learned that the ignorant artist had suffered the plaster to re- main on hi* head so long before he attempted to divide it w ith the strings that the process could not he carried into effect! Mr. Snooks attempt ed to apeak ; hut he could not articulate a syl lable ; he strove to acream, hut his voice soun ded like the deep muttering* of the thunder in the distance, lie then resorted tu gestures, and made significant signs, which would have exci ted the admiration of a Frenchman, imploring a buttle of first rate champaign, nod we sat d . ... f o sip it. and discus* the iinpotiuut affair which lie had j relief, lie stamped, he kicked, and threw his ......n a - »•« oii„.i .i i - 1 ■** arm* about liken windmill ; hill all lo no pur pose. It seemed as if lie was horribly doomed to wear his head in a shell for life. This idea flushed on the mind of Mr. Snooks; but it wa* too dreadful lo hear. He sprung up, and, ma king the most unearthly sounds, w hich wore in to toll me. A* lie filled the glasses, he turned hi* eye on me and said— “1 owe von a debt of gratitude, my dear follow." “ For what!’’ " For introducing mo to Mis* Thornton." “ Not at all—you know thut whenever lean in any advance your interests or happiness, you have the hundred dollars, and several other small sum* for which I wa* indebted to him. *' A toast. Mr. Luckless—llctc'* health and hap piness to the lady fair, under approaching auspi ce*." I responded to it, w ith nil mv heart, and emptied m v glass. As lie refilled it, I enquired, “ Why then, she hu* been telling you w hat I expected, like most other Indie*, she would have kept secret?" "Oh. yes! she ha* told me u thousand secret*. Tho thing is fixed." I thought it somewhat strange, that Susan should have made a confidant of him, nod let him into the •ion of the Spring*.

Our lieio, that is to say myself, Harry Luckless, modestly speaking, vvn* u comely personage. He hud a fine leg ami wore a tight puululooti very gen- teclv—hair much like Byron’s—and a manner which was admired by thegiil* mid envied by the men. The first time on which 1 met Mis* Susan wns nt a Imge party, where she looked like Venus in the Milk Maid’s path, decidedly and far-away the most brilliant of all the breathing creatures who were killing henrtsarouiid her. We immediately became mutually interested ; mid I recollect that a* we pro menaded together, 1 could not help glancing into a large lookiug-glaa*, for it seemed lo me that take u* two out and out, we were rather the properest look ing couple on whom the eye of man or woman oft real* delighted!

And in sooth. I was a popular fellow with the ladies. 1 suspect I received inure heavenly siuilc* than any one else; nml a* to kisses, 1 could get them just where I pleaned.

I wns just twenty-one year* and'seventeen tiny* old when I encountered Mis* Susan. I had not yet gone through the ordeal of fire, nud consequently iny affections were fresh, tender and unseared. I wns not long ill determining oil the propriety of mar rying her, and commenced a regular series of atten tions, with a direct eye to matrimony. I called on Susan on onQ of the sweetest moon light nights that ever scattered romance on the love- making month of May. My charmer sat at the window ; and after the usual preliminaries about health had been gotten through with, I proposed that we should take a walk.—She assented, and soon might have been hanging to my arm, Haunter- ing along, and turning up her glorious dark eye at me. after a fashion that made ine feel curious I as- but to command my services," said I. thinking of fended for innnns, he groped his way \vitli II)itch difficulty towards the door, being impelled by nti instinctive feeding to seek lor sympathy alia ussistuuee from the public at large.

It might he advisable to take a leap into the flood how ever, after the manner of Sappho, and cure my heart of love.” “If you have any of that useless commodity about you, I would advise you Intake the lover's leap. It would delight me to see you floundering about in the water*, and your ghost certainly would frighten the little fishes into ecstacies.” But suppose I should get drowned ?” “Why, then I would write your epitaph, and shortly after become a subject for the doctors—pre senting the rare spectacle of a young lady pilling away into the land of shadows of a broken licurt.” What fools the railery of a pretty girl makes of the best of us! i couldn’t say a word by way of re tort. *• Come, let’s sit down on this log,” said I.

Had I not felt so sure of the success of my suit, 1 certainly should hove been much troubled with the attentions which my charmer wus ureeted with in every direction. My good friend, Mr. Worthall. to he sure, was very devoted, but what had I to fear from one of his nge and pretensions ? • Two weeks had been wasted, and wo were to re turn home on the next morning. In the evening a company of us started out on a walk. I took my proper place along side of Susan, evidently to the chagrin of Dick, who hated the consignment to M i*s Sally, when her peerless cousin wus at hand. We wandered about n good deal; and ut length I man aged to extricate my companion and myself from the rest of the company. We roved about; and ar riving on the hank of n noisy stream, Susan said she was quite wcnr'md out. und tented herself on a rock, to wait, as she said, for the rest. I placed my self nt the lady’s feet. The moon was visible through the branches over us, nml as the beams play ed ou Susan's features, she looked t<> me the very image of nil that poet in hi* rapt mood had ever dreamed of. The wnter-fulls beneath us flung mag ic on the scene, and 1 felt that the hand of fate was on the curtain of my destiny. “What makes yqu sombre—‘has sorrow thy young heart shaded ;’ or have you very uupoeticui- ly got the blues ?—said Susan. “ I was thinking”— “Why do you think 7” Interrupted Susan. “I can assure you that it is very preposterous to be thinking nt such u time as this. Thinking, when the moon-beams are dancing among the leaves which shade you ; thinking, when the melody of the water* is ringing in the air; thinking, when I am beside you; fie. fie, Mr. llany Luckless, rally, ami be yourself again.” “ What would you have me do, at such a season, —be as barren of thought ns the rock beneaihyoii?" “ By no means. On surh occasions I always re sign myself to the spirit which is abroad, nml drink deeply of the feelings which it mouse*. To he sure, I like the crazy whirl of thought which the magic that rules tin* place is so well calculated to produce ; hut then, I like the feelings it awakens to be mingled with them, that I may revel in their unit ed and intense excitement.’’ “I do feel ail intense excitement, Susan”—said I, grasping the small soft hand which lay before me— “I do fee I an intense excitement! I think, my thought are as one: I feci, hot have one only feel- in*. Here beneath these trees, and in the presence of the wildly romantic spirit which we both admit, I declare”— “Stop! hush! hush!” exclaimed Susan, in a loud whisper—“stop, here comes Mr. Worthall and Sul ly.” 3he sprang to her font, and waved her hand to ward me, which 1 grasped and pressed lo my lips. That kis*, thought 1, seals our destinies—and I was imparndised. •* All! we've caught the truants nt last." exclaim ed Dick, as lie c.nnie up with cousin Sally on his dexter arm. “ Why, what iu the name of all that’s wonderful, Miss Susan, liuve you and Mr. Luckless been nt.” “Oh, he’s been charming me here with hi* poet ry.

It seems that Mr. Snooks unfortunately was the possessor of a head of unusual dimensions and peculiar shape, which attracted the attention of an individual who had become interested iu the study of Phrenology. 'This lover of remarkable devel- opemeats gazed at Mr. Snook's head with ad miration ; he longed to touch it, to have it be neath his hands, and, in an evil hour, poor Mr. Snooks consented to lie manipulated by the de voted follower of (vail and Spurzlieim. Mr. Snooks’s head was found to he a remarkable one—so much so that the interest of the science required a cast to ho taken, and Snooks, who was not aware of the exact nature of tho oper ation, at length yielded a reluctant coiimuU to the solicitations of the ardent discoverer of humps. The Phrenologist himself had never been instructed in the rather difficult process of taking casts ; nevertheless, lie conceived him self equal to the task of this occasion, having frequently received verbal instruction from those who bad conducted that operation, lie was told to mix the plaster to the consistency of cream, ami then to apply it with an unsparing hand to the head and face, having piece* of tw ine lying in different directions across the cranium, which, being pulled before the plaster became hard, would cut it in several pieces, nud thus cause it to be easily disengaged.
