K rot her Jonathan arose from bis seat, in tbs
nidai pf biQfonsaiul daughters, aod comnien-
ced their introduotlcn as follows :
My friend*, 1 am happy to see you and will
take pleasure introducing these boy* and
girls to jour acquaintance. On mj right here,
with a mature and thoughtful countenance, is
mj daughter Massachusetts. This jouqg wo
man, on mj left is toy oldest daughter,Virgiaia.
8he was a rerj interesting child when joung,
and I set great store bj her, and gare her (be
best out-fit of all mj daughters. Next, on
tho other tide,' is New York, measuring two
or tfatee tnefcee above the others.
Opposite, and next to Virginia, is my se
cond daughter Pennsjlvania, a large matron*
Ij young ladj, with demure eounteasooe,
dressed in drab. She has always been a mo
dest and retiring girl, with a serene end
peaceful disposition.
The third on my right is Connecticut, a pro
per and promising youth, and greatly respec
ted fur steady habile from childhood. A1
though rather below the medium height, and
narrow across the shoulders, there is a well
developed head with a good share of the in
ventive organs.
Direoily opposite is my third daughter, Ma
ryland. She isn't quite so matronly in her
carriage and'person as her oldest slater, and
more taciturn, but she is a good girl though I
say it. The fourth iu the line is New Jersey.
Shortish, broad shouldered, with a squareness
of forehead, and a little flow iu movement,
but euro and trurty» ami gets off a groat deal
of work in the course of the year
Opposite New Jearey is her little sister
Khode Island. Although of small statue, she
has a busy mind and makes a swart little wc-
iuau in the family. The fifth, then, in the
high chair, is Delaware, a little stinted iu
growth, when an infant, by the smallness of
her cradle. Still, though but four fee: six,
she can do the work of a full grown person,
aod is quite a favorite in the family, both for
size and disposition.
Over against Deleware is North Carolina, a
discreet and dutiful maiden, with dark hair
and somewhat orange complexion. Although
less talkative than her sister below, she pos
sesses* as much practical sense and a9 many
amiable qualities.
The sixth of my children, is my son, New
Hampshire, a steady, sober lad, famous for
blasting and splitting granite rocks for our
buildings. He ha9 a clear, frank and honest
countenance.
Opposite is our brilliaut. and rather showy
sister South Carolina. Sho is gifted with
great conversational powers, quick and smart at
repartee, and is sometimes rallied for setting
herself up as the belle of the circle. Sho is
fond of being admired, and likes to have her
own way,
Tho next, in order of age, is my son Ver
mont, truly a character. His sharp features,
shaded by long /lark hair, are full of shrewd
and ready sagacity. lie is found of moun
tain life, is industrious, and makes a good liv
ing out of wool and maple sugar. For the su
gar be has peculiar faocy.
Next, on the other sides is Georgia, as hand
some a woman as ever wore a cotton dress.—
She is blonde, with a full bust aod fine open
countenence. She is quick in her conversa
tion, and the same In her actions, but mea
well.
All these thirteen were borne before the
year 177G. The rest, since that time; and
what ie somewhat worth relating, although not
remarkable, some of them have already out
grown the elder portion of the family.
There is Kentuoky. stalwart and Cromwell
looking, a kind of Nimrod in the family, and
boasts of the best cattle in the world. Iu the
act of bunting he can’t be beaten, and is a
good shot.
Opposite, is a sister next in age. Tennes-
see, a tall, wall behaved yonng women, with
matronly air, ahe shows well in society, and
talks by the book. Then comes my broad-
breasted eon Ohio. He went oat with hie axe
on hie shoulders, felled the forests trees and
made at good a farm as ever lay out doors.—
He is now engaged in tilling it and in doing
other little jobs.
On the other aide is Florida, a bright girl
with sunny hair. 8he grew very slowly when
a ohild, and we thought once it would be a
hard ohaace to raise her ; but she ie coming
on, and promises to be a likely and useful wo
roan.
Then'comes Illinois, the tallest of the whole,
and strong at well as tall. She is beginaing
to make a noise in the world.
Then Missouri on the other side, Is a ruddy,
fair-looking young woman, and much given
to boating excursions on the rivers. She
manages the rodder pretty well, and will make
her way to success.
Next is Michigan, a little pale and thin,
with fever and ague ; living in a swampy sec*
ties of the farm, suffering a good deal at first,
but wow begins to pick up a little, and promi-
see to be likely and long loved.
Indiana ie the next daughter in the line,
and live* neighbor lo my son. Ohio, on one
aide, and my daughter,; Illinois, on the
other. She is a young woman of sterling
qualities, though unpretending in her dress
and deportment.
Nettle Wisconsin, not yet fifteen, bat large
*nd|BtroBg of her age; ehe hat a pleasant turn
of mind and promises well.
Next la Louisiana. 8ha had a French nnrae
and teacher from her Infancy, and speak* that
language fluently, and still retains many
Frenoh airs and expressions. Her dress is a
la mod* and hsrstsp stately and graceful.
Then en ewe tide we have Iowa, Minnesota,
adff the twin-sister* Kansas aid Orsgon; and
ths ether, Mississippi, Arkansas, Texas
1 California. Thus y<
