Why, what is there wrong about the Phiggs ?” “Why, yon spell it with an F. instead of Good heavens, what a ridiculous blunder! I apologized for the mistake, and promised to rewrite the acrostic and incorporate tho Ph. She retained the copy ns it stood. Just before she left tho party, accorn pa nied by young Squanderson, she asked .ne if I was foud of skating. I told her I was passionately fond of it, aud asked her how she liked it- She said the word passion ately was too feeble to describe fully her fondness for it. Whereupon 1 invited her to go with me to Cedar Hill the next afternoon. She said she would go with pleasure. I bought two pairs ol skates nt sls each, payable the latter puft of next Week, and, calling around at the United States Hotel for her at the nppoiuted hour, we went out. It took me a good while to fasten on Miss Phigg’s skates. My apology for consum ing so much time is that all the other young men do the same thing. Why il is 1 scarce ly know. I only know that I thought to myself that if nobody but pretty girls went to Cedar Hill Park, 1 would pay the proprie tors a handsome bonus for the position ol skate fastener to the establishment. Such is life when the heart reposes in the sunshine of youth. Our skates adjusted, we went out on the ice, a thing I hadn't done before for years, and I felt as awkward as an elephant might feel on stilts. But knowing that there is nothing like-self-confidonce and boldness in skating, I struck out bril liantly, with Miss P.’s soft white hand in mine, and with my splendid new dress coat buttoned tightly across my chest. At about the third or fourth dash I threw my heels at Miss Phigg’s hat, and attempted to stand on my head. For a moment or so I had barely consciousness enough left to feel that I had been thrown upon a cast iron pavement from the top of tho Custom House, and that the entire catalogue of a large female boarding-school bad fallen on top of me. For the next moment or two I was as delirious as a child with the brain fever, and sat upon the ice with a bran new eight dollar plug-hat mashed upon my head as flat as if a barrel of salt had rolled over it, and with my coat bursted in the back from the collar to tho waist. I must have presented a melancholy spectacle. Somebody was kind enough to take off my skates and stand me on my feet- Just then I couldn’t have told who I was, where I was, nor what I was doing there. I gazed about me like an idiot in a strange crowd. Sud denly somebody seized me by the arm, and jerking me half way around, exclaimed fiercely: “Why the , sir, didn't you let this lady’s hand go when you felt like a tool ?” I gazed into the man’s face without utter ing a word. I was too thoroughly bewil dered to comprehend his meaning. I felt that when 1 fell 1 lost my hold on everything on earth. Shaking me very rudely, he re peated the question. The shaking brought me to my senses “ Who are you, sir ?” I asked, “that you presume to champion this lady, who is here under my protection?” “My name, sir, is Phiggs ; I am the hus band of this damnably ill-treated lady.” The husband of Miss Phiggs ! The words chilled ray heart to the core, f felt that 1 was going out of my head again fast, and requested Mr. Phiggs to shake me some more. Turning to Miss Phiggs, with what must have been a look of unutterable de- spatr. “Susan, O, Susan,” said I, in a voice satu rated with tears, “is this Phiggs?’’ “It is.” “And, Su—boo—hoo—hie —usat:, are you- Mrs. Phiggs ?” “I am.” I reeled like a famished mule with the blind-staggers, and fell into the arms oi a by-stander, who led me gently front the ice and sent me home in a lreck, a miserable wreck of ray former self. The next day I received a note from Phiggs, inclosing my acrostic, anrl request ing me to meet him the following morning on some private business a few miles back of Jeffersonville. I wrote a reply, promis ing to be there punctually. When I reached the ferry-boat with a couple of friends I found Phiggs there with a couplo oi his friends. What his motives were for wanting to be shot at 1 can’t tell. As for myself, my head was so badly swelled, that, now that I knew I had lost the beauti ful I’higgs, it was a matter of indifference to me whether 1 was shot at or not. I felt, with Mr Toots, that I could “glide into the silent tomb with ease and smoothness.’ Hall way across the river one of Phigg’s friends came to where I was sitting on a keg of ten-penny nails. “Mr. Bricks,” said he, “is there no way in which this impending effusion of blood can be prevented ?” “Yes,” said I, “ii you will kick Phiggs into the river and let him stay there, you will very effectually prevent it.” “But seriously,” said he, “can’t this un happy difficulty be honorably and amicably adjusted in some way?” “I’ll tell you what I’ll do,” I replied, “I will confess that the jerking of Mrs. Phigg’s heels from under her was wholly uninten tional on my part if Phiggs will acknowl edge that he made a fool of himself about it." Phigg’3 friend returned to bis principal, and, after a brief consultation, Phiggs came forward, and offering me his band, said : “Allow me to say, Mr. Bricks, that your conduct throughout this whole affair has l>een that of . a perfect gentleman. Your apology is amply sufficient, and I accept it with tho conditions annexed. But here we are, sir, at Jeffersonville—let’s all go up town aud take something.” We went up town and took something, and the terms of settlement having been reduced to writing for publication and signed in duplicate by Plnggs and myßolf, we walked back to the river and returned to the city on the next boat. During the friendly conversation which enlivened the voyage I learned that Phiggs had boen told that I was as blood-thirsty os a tigress bereft of her offspring, and would tight tho very dickens himself. Os course I did not tell him 1 had been assured that lie was the most consummate coward that over ran from an empty gun. At the corner of Fourth and Jefforson streets wo ported. “ Phiggs,” said I, taking his hand, “you live, I believe, in Chicago.” Phiggs admitted that he did. “ Ana is it your intention, may I ask, to AUGUSTA, GA., SUNDAY MOBNING, FEBRUARY 16, 1868. reside there permanently with Mrs. Phiggs ?” lie assured me that it was. “ Theu,” said I earnestly, at the samo time wringing his hand till he squirmed, •• when your divorce suit comes off, don't fail to telegrnph mo at once—l would like much to attend the trial.” As I spoko I saw the iron enter his soul. I saw that he would never again make Chicago his home. I was avenged. "Hastily, but truly, yours, Geo. Washington Bricks. The Shepherd’s Voice; or, “It is I.” — A lady walking on some downs the morning after a terrific thunder storm, met a shepherd. She asked him what his sheep had done during tho storm. “ Ah!’’ he replied, “ I folded them as usual in the evening; but when the storm came on I thought of the poor things, and went out to look after them. When I got a little distance from tho fold, I saw them jumping about in the greatest alarm; but the moment they heard my voice they were quite quiet.” Just so, storm and tempest may break over the be liever ; but only let him hear the Chief Shopher’s voice, saying, “It is I,” and there is a great calm.

WE BEG LEAVE TO CALL TIIE ATTEN TION of the public to this long tested and unrivallod FAMILY MEDICINE. The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegetable compound ; and while it is a most efficient He u edy for Pain, it is a perfectly safe medicine, even in the most unskillful bauds, for SUMMER UQMPPAINT, or any other form of Bowel Disease in children or adults. It is an almost certain cure, and has, without doubt, been moro successful in curing the various kinds of CHOLERA than any other known remedy, or even the most skillful physician. In India, Africa and China, where this dreadful disease is over mono or less prevalent, the PAIN KILLER is considered by the natives, as well as European residents in those climates, A SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic for tho Stomach, it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve severe cases of INDIGESTION, and it is ofteu a perfect cure for DYSPEPSIA in its most aggravated forms. Its tonic and stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigorous action, reuder it a most effectual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, when used according to directions. For external application, it is unsurpassed by any medical preparation known. RHEUMATISM and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved and open cured by it. Any soroncss in the Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its applica tion. It cures instantly tho most violent TOOTHACHE. It should always bo kept near at band, to be used in cases of severe BURNS OH SCALDS. If applied immediately, according to directions, it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering. It is peculiarly adapted to the wants of SEAMEN, and persons making sea voyages, and no vessel should sail without a supply of it. One captain writes us: “I have made several voyages—often with emigrants—and though I keep a. good medicine chest, and have several times had a good deal ol sickness on board, I have found the Pain Killer so efficient in all cases as to entirely preclude the use of all other medicines.” One positive proof of its efficacy is, that the sales have constantly increased, aud wholly upon its own merits. The effect of the Pair. Killer upon the patient, when taken internally in cases of Colds, Cough, Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dysentery, and other affections of the system, lias been truly wonderful, and has won for it a name among the medical preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in re moving Pain, as an external remedy, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Sting of Insects, and other causes of suffering, has sc cured for it such a host of testimony, as an almost infallible remedy, that it will be banded down to posterity as one ot the greatest medical discoveries of tho nineteenth century. Tho magical effects of the Pain Killer, when taken or used according to directions, are certain. You have only to be sure that you buy the genuine article and adhere to the directions in its use, and you will admit its wonderful medi cinal properties. The genuine Perry Davis’ Pain Killer is now put up in panuel bottles with the words Davis Vogotablo Pain Killer blown in tho glass ; and with two steel engraved labels on each bottle— one an excellent likeness of Perry Davis, the original inventor of the medicine, the other a steel engraved note of hand—none others can be relied upon as genuine. T o Pain Killer is sold by Druggists and Groce s. PEBIIY DAVIS & SON, Proprietors, jalO—2m No. 74 High at., Providence, R.I Furniture and Piano Hauling.
