▲ fact deserving to be well considered, and
the responsibilities of which the Democracy
will be called upon to meet, is, that, for the first
time during the present generation, the whole
region below the Potomao has, within the hut
twelve months, oonsigned Its political destiny
into the keeping of the Democratic party.
. Hitherto the South hu been the prey of con
tending factions. She hu been weak because
her people wen divided. All have felt that
this was her weakness. Both parties have been
loud In lamenting, while each hu been ready
to throw upon the other the blame for dissen
sions which exposed her to the scoffing and
contempt of her enemies. Half a dozen years
since, some believing that these dissensions
could never be healed while the old party
names rallied their respective adherents, de
termined to drop the designation of Whig and
Democrat and form a Souihtrn Rights party,
which it wu hoped would embrace the whole
South. Vain hope! The unfurling of the flag
of this new organisation was but the signal for
Intenser feuds than had ever before been known
in our section. Signally failing In its object of
uniting tho South, the Southern Bights party
speedily and wisely dissolved, leaving its ele
ments to go whither their affinities carried
them. Most of its members went into the
Democratic party—many not before connected
with it. The dissolution of the Union party
followed, by which the Democracy wu still
further strengthened, not only receiving back
all Its members (with very few exceptions)
who had gone into the Union party, but with
them many who had been Whigs. Know Noth*
ingism drove into the Democratic ranks another
accession of hitherto alien forces—now faithful
The mult, u shown by the late election,
that the South, with the omission of the third-
rate State of Maryland, is practically a unit.
What wu so long desired hu at hut been
attained—though not in the manner in which
many hoped that it would be accomplished.—
The Democracy triumphant throughout the
whole seotlon lying below the Potomao, we
may assume that our divisions have ceased.
It now remains for the Democratic party to
meet the responsibilities which popular confi
dence hu imposed upon it. A Southern onion
having been efieoted under its banner, its lead
ers and Us members must see to it that public
expectation is not disappointed as to the re
sults which have been so frequently predicted
u certain to flow from such unity of sentiment
In the slaveholding States.

sober view of tho pomps and vanities of this
wicked world. It is Just possible, indeed, that
the gentleman’s popularity might bo nttrlbut*
ed In part to & very handsotuo citato which he
hid inherited from his lather; for 1 have gen
erally obeerved that a large lauded property is
a groat enhancer of tho wit, beauty, or nro-
fondity of its possessor. As Mr. Rollins grad
ually lumbered along in II lo, ho naturally be
came lose and less disposed to rapid locomotion
and at the time ho is introduced to tho reader,
he had dropped one and auother of his regular
visiting acquaintances among tho ladies, until
the number had dwindled down in number to
exactly throe families.
In one of these families—that 01 Mr. Petti
grew—thero woro two elderly young ladies,
named Rachel aud Amelia. These ladies were
of tho respective ages of thirty-seven aud thir
ty-nine, and having outlived their taste lor
balls and jams, now solaced themselves with
the society of a few old beaux who would occa
sionally drop In of an evening and bayou quiet
game of backgaiumou with them by the side
of an old fashloued Liverpool coal lire. Among
theao visitors, uono was more welcome than
was Mr. Relilus. llis stories were generally
long, and he had much to say 01 the sad de
generacy of tho present fust age; hut theu, bo
lide being rich iu the funds, ho was rich in his
reminiscences of the oldcu time.
He would every uow uud theu so afi'eetingly
allude to tho brilliant evenings of bygoue years
when be used to dance with tho Muses Rachel
aud Amelia at tho public assemblies, that the
K ladies, iu imagination, revel again
jh those gay aud festive scone : and, os
Mr. Rollins named oao und another of tho hc.ies
and adorers who uso to figure iu tlm .Spauisli
dances and ladies chains of that simple era ol
Terpsichore, tho tears would course one ano
ther dowa their innocent noses. Mr. Rollins
was also aconuoiseur, and a highly gifted crit
ic in green and black teas, and was well ported
in cough and rhuumatio medicines gcnoinilv.
Since he had got along in years, he had like
wise come to take a great iuteresta iu »uoi. mat
ters; he kept the run of proceedings of nil tin
annual conventions, and was supposed to be
familiar with the private opinions of m-ir„
of the Bishops. Now, tunic of the.« hi) j -. i
were indifferent ones to ids fair companion
and as such human weaknc.-i.-cs as love aud
marriage seemed out of the question, the inter,
couuse between them w.is us cairn and cool u>
moonshine iu winter. Thu condition oi ancient
beaux aud aucient belles who have rctiiul from
the drawingrooms ot mirth and fashion, and
have taken to chess and needlewoik, uad to
sober remiuisccuces of the heart conflicts they
have undergone, is not of the cUeeiless charac
ter which some consider it. it may he likened
that offpensloned soldiers carefully housed in
some suag harbor provided by tho Male, wlu re
they may rest aud smoke aud talk of the mighty
deeds they have dune lor tho residue of their
hves. The wars are over, the battles have been
fought; and wlmt, though one may have
Ionian arm, auother u leu;, and a third has
been lopped of all bis limbs, yet flic p.iiu aris
lug from the wounds have been long forgotten,
aud they now remember but the incidents und
the glory of the conflicts.
One of tho other families which Mr. Rollins
led to visit, was that of the well known Dr.
Anodyne. Tim Doctor himself was a gentle
man of the old bchuol, and his lady could give
you tho history of every family or note m tin.
metropolis, but tho great attraction to Mr.
Rollins was the society of their daughter Ilai*
riet. Miss Harriet bud been in her day a cele
brated beauty, hut having uow attained her
fortienth year, it was generally supposed that
the grand meridian of her clmiuu had hem
passed. Iu early life there had bun some talk
of a match between her aud Mr. Rollins, bnt
this had long blown over and their conversa
tion was now, to all human appearance, as ra
tional and unimpassioued as though they were
a couple of prosy philosophers. The remain
ing family, honored with the pleasant acquain
tanceship of Mr* Rollins was that of Mrs. At-
terbury, a widow lady of considerable wealth
and positiou. She was tho sister ot Mrs. Ano
dyne, and consequently, her daughter, the
amiable Miss Anna Mauu, was own cousin to
Mbs Harriet, and very nearly of the same ripe
age. Both these young ladies were on terms
of the most agreeable lutimuey with tl c Mi r-v-
Rachel and Amelia Pettigr* w. They had been
companions iu girlhood, bed promt-nailed on
the Battery, bad taken moonlight walks in
company with each other amt their lovu>
tbrough the graveled walks 01 St John’s pi,, r,
and would doubtless sometimes have extended
their strolls to the Fifth avenue, weic it not
that the time I treat of was anterior to the dis
covery of that fashionable thorough fai t*. When
these lair spinsters would get together and
grow inspirited und loquacious as they sipped
their byson, Mr. Rollins was their toast and
their oracle. But delightful as was tho rela
tion subsisting between them and their unti
quated beau, it was temporarily destined ton
very singular kind of uu interruption. Ail at
once, asonoof the wonders ot the wot id, a new
light sprang up iu Mr. Rollins’s m.r.d, und this
light was none other than n reflection Mom tfo.
torch of Cupid. How it came to pass tha; Hint
heart of adamant, which during 1110 fervor aim
passion of youth had resisted the well direui .1
volleys from female eyes ol every color, nu.i
bad at last succumbed, must forever remain a
mystery.
But Mr. Rollin'* love was us droll as it wcb
untimely. Worse than tho poor ass »>i tu-
schoolmau, hesitating between two bandits of
bay, Mr. Rollins had fallen iu love witnml
four of his female companions uttbe bjuic
time. At first, this baoiieh r love developed
itself in periodical fits of partiality lor one or
tho other of the ladies, ju-jt ns it happened;
vacillating, as it were, from day to dny. Thus
tor a while, Miss Amelia Fatigrew would le
the queen ot his affections fit- would call t«
mind some roguish dimple ol her girlhood, und
what a splendid set of teeth one of lur 10 :ni.;r
ringing laughs would disclose in tho*u days of
remote antiquitty. When Mi*. Amelia war
thus boosted ou the topmost round of Mr. bel
lin’* ladder of weathercock admiration, *!.c
would suddenly be precipitated to Use ground
by a dim shadowy recollection on the purl 0:'
the bewitchtug mnunor iu which Alisa Anna

memor ies of his early partiality for MU-. Har
riet Anodyue would so htir up poor R.

ably would have done so ou a tei t;.iu aib nioon
had he not stopped in at the IVttigrev.v, 0,1 hi
way to Dr. Anodyne’s. It happumi on Hi
occasion that Mies. Rachel was s.t h< in nh,i;
and her tender soliritude in the matter of

iugthree. Now, this wasu commgem-v i>
painful to thiuk of, ond the poor nui’imn
gentiemau spent a whole year iu devis.y.
ways and meuus whereby it uiigli h; avoided*.
As yet, neither of the ladies in question had
the remotest suspicion of the whirldwiiul of
eccentric passion whicli was tearing nway th<
very foundations, of Air. Rollins’s mmul being
for at any time ho happened to inuku tumu ex
traordiuary demonstration, it wns croditul to
the account ot a sudden find utn-xpectcd
twinge of rheumathm with which he wascc-
castonally nfflicted.
Ono evening in tho mouth of November,
while Rollins was sitting in his lonely room
meditating on the past, and wondering « hither
the tempest within would eventually lead him,
he suddenly bounded from his chair, wrapped
his fingers, looked out of the window, put
more coal on the fire, plumbed himself again in
his chair, and then soliloquized,“its of no use,”
said he, “to endure this confounded pcipk-xi-

•Of course, Mr. Rollins, 1 replied Mis* Harriet
‘you can ask pa’s co-operation in anything you
choose to, but tho whole procedure would be
so strange uml unusual, that mi far as I um con

‘Now, Alins Harriet, if you please, beg

On tho day of" this inter v»w Air. Rollins
made known his delicate intentions to the other
thtee ladies, and at first they were disposed to
regard tho matter in a jocular light,* but on
being assured by Mr. Rolliu.- that lie l.,ved
them nil with the poetic ardor of a ncvi r-dylng
elf.-ctiou, it is difficult to say whether uriutzv
meut or mirth was the predominant emotion
ot their breasts. Win-n Miss Harriett Anotlyuc
related to her thtlicr the .-ingulur communica
tion which had been made to her, the Doctor
was thrown into such convul-ious of laughter,
that he prute-to to this day ire gained bcven

The ladies went off iu iresh cachii.nations al

to see that they were beginning to waver; to
think more seriously of the matter, and before
they parted, it was—"Weil after nil, no one is

At tins, iho Indies in uflutter ot amiable con
