Pnnuy Montgomery's Low-Necked Dress.
BY KVA MILFORD.
‘I suppose, Miss Montgomery, yon will have your
dress cut to come off the shoulders, shan't you I’
1 his speech was made by Miss Brown, the fashiona
ble dress-maker ot our village, to Fanny Montgomery
wbo with her mother wus presiding over the making ol
an elegant dress, in which Miss Fanny intended to
shine at a Christmas ball, at which she particularly
wished to appear well. The dress was now being ‘fit
ted, and Miss Brown stuod, shears iu hand to cut the
already low neck to the prescrilied dimensions
‘Oh no, Fanny! 1 interposed Mrs, Montgomery,'pray
don l have it any lower than it now is!’
•Mercy on me, Ma’am!’ hastily answered Miss Brown
that don’t begin to be low enough. Why, the fashion
plates that 1 have just received from Boston,an- ss much
as two_ inches lower than that, and Miss Mason and
Miss Huott and Miss Roliertsun all have find new dres
aes lor this ball, and I cul all olthem away offlhe shoul
ders I’m sure Miss Fanny's neck is twice as hand
some as either ol theirs, and 1 don’t see why she
sliould’ut show it.’
‘Oh, mama,'added Fanny, in a pleating voice,‘do
let roe have it low—l’m sure if Mary Robertson lias I
her's so it must be right, frrshe is always in the laaluon
and—and—l warn it so, mama, very much ’
‘Well,child, have it your own way ; but I must say I
do not think it modest or becoming in a young girl to
expose hersell in this way.’
’Oh, mama,Pin sure it cant be immodest when ao
many people do it.’
‘Aureal ninny people have b**en murderers, Fanny :
does that prove it is right to murder!’
‘No, indeed,mama; but that is quite different.’
‘llow is it different, Fannyl’
‘ Why—l don’t know—because—
’Lucid reasoning, upon my word, Fanny But Miss
Brown is wailing to hear your decision aliout the dress
How v\ and! you have it cal ’
‘Well, 1 will have it,—low I think—that is, if you do !
not object, mama.’
T ain willing, dear, you should have it the way which !
suits you best ’
‘Thank you! then, Miss Brown, I will have it low, il i
you are suie't will be becoming ‘
Why was Fanny so anxious her dress should Ire sash- !
ionable and becoming ! I don’t believe you know, and !
so I will tell you, reader. A few days previous to the !
commencement of my story. Dr Heaili had inform- i
ed us girls that a handsome, wealthy, talented and a
greealrle city beau, to whom he stood in the relation of
couain, was coming down to spend Christmas in our [
little village, and would be at the Christmas ball. ‘So
girls ,’concluded the doctor. ‘I advise you all to look
your best and act your prettiest, for Hazleton says he
wants a wife, and means to see il he can't fell in love [
down here.’
‘Dr. Heath,did yousayhe was good-looking!’asked i
little Annie Selwyn, with a roguish smile on tier pretty
lips
‘Good looking, Annie'why’tis profanation to apply
such a term to him; he is a perfect Adonis, and 1 < xpect
will carry off all your hearts. We poor village beaux
will la- quite forgotten, if we are not already. And
poor Dr Heath, glanced almost imperceptibly, at Fan
ny Montgomery Slight as was the glance, fanny saw
it, and went most industriously to work Hirting with
young Green, on whom she had before hardly deigned
to cast a glance. Dr Heath watched her lor alew mo
ments well rather a latter smile, and then turning to El
len Mason, he devoted himself to her during the re
mainder ol the evening Fanny watched hi,,, dm oi\bc
comer of the eye and inwardly resolved, tha t il Frank
Hazleton should prove at all to her taste, Dr. Heath
should repent introducing him, to hia dying day So
now you undereland why Fanuy was so unxious to ap
pear to advantage r
The dress was finished, and Fanny was in extacics ai
the smoothness ot the set and the graceful outline of
the waist: but a slight blush mantled her cheek and
brow ns she observed how very low the neck was cut ‘
‘You are sure, Miss Brown,’ said she, ‘that this is no ‘
lower than the others you mentioned cutting !’
’Oh no, Mks Montgomery, and not near so low as
my fashion plates have them I'm sure if I had your
neck I never would wear a dress a thread higher than
i that.’
At this moment Mrs. Montgomery and Fanny's cou
| sin. Lizzy Wsiren, entered the room
‘How do you do, Lizzy?’said Fanny,’how do vou
like my new dress!’
‘The material is very pretty,’ unawe red her cousin,
’but ——,
’ But wliatl Lizzy.’
■Lizzy probably thinks, as I do, that it leaves your
neck too much exposed lor either beauty or modesty ’
remarked Mrs. Montgomery
•Now mother why will you keep saying that. You
don l think ao, do you Lizzy?*
•Why Fanny, since you drive me to it, I must say
that 1 should hardly like to wear it ao very low *
’Why Lizzy, it's all the festoon, and Miss Brown says
that all the girls have them so.’
‘1 know it,’ answered L'zzy with a quiet smile hut I
nii.ko.ia mi. ivver to do whai Ido noi approve of
merely because other people do .9w Itrown cun lell
you that she tried very hard to persuade me to have
mine made in the same manner ; but I believe. Mis*
Brown. you finally conclude that your rlietoric was only
thrown away on me.’
•Why yes, Miss Warren,’ answered the dressmaker,.
‘I found you more 9et about having your own way than
1 should have judged from your lace.’
’ When 1 know ‘my way’ is the right one,l am gene
rally pretty determ ned upon it. But really, Fanny
don’t you think that dress a little too low!’
‘No not a bit,’answered Fanny, rather warmly for
she was determined todefend her dress to the death,as
the saying is. Lizzy said no more, and Fanny wore
the dress.
Cristinas night had come,and we were all assembled,
in the hail in which our village balls were usually cele
brated. Dr. Heath and his friend Hazleton had not yet
made their apiwarance, and many bright glances were
directed impatiently towards the door.
Decidedly the two prettiest girls in the room were
Fanny Monigoinery and Lizzy Warren,allhough their 1
appearance was very different. Fanny, in lull eonsci- !
oasuess ol her low-necked dress and her mother and I
cousin's disapproved of it, had an unusually haughty
curl to her lieamilul mouth, and her head tvaa |>crKaps
a little mote thrown back than usual, while her cheeks
glowed and her eyes sparkled (mm a feeling wlucn if
analyzed might have proved lo have been partly the
consciousness of having had her own way—partly a
knowledge that she was very handsome, and—lurking
in depths ol her heart—an uneasy feeling that sbe hid
noi done well in disregarding the advice of her kind
mother Lizzy Warren, on the contrary, modest,quiet,
and miring, reminded one of a fringed gentian, wet willi
morning dew, and strivuig lo hide Us marvellous beauty
under ils broad leaves.
The door at length opened, and this time admitted
the right peratmace. A” Mi Hazleton ent -red, each
lair maiden decided iu nci own wind mat thr accounts
•tie had tieard ol his good looks uere not exaggerates!.
He was a man such as “w anenlow lo look upon,”
with hu tall, manly form and handaoiue, intellectual
face He was of course tavored with an intruduclion
to every body in the Dram, and the evening went on
right merrily. The ball was nearly luilt done, and l)r
Heaili and Ins cousin were slsiiding a little apai i from
die crowd and commenting upon lire mi nis of the gay
scene.
And F’rank,'continued the Doctor, ‘what do you
think of F'anny Montgomery I Wus I wrong m call- ;
tug her the most beautiful girl in Willowvale I
‘Humph’ she is certainly liuiidsome aud does rzoel
lently for a jmrtnrr at a ball, but I must say I should
uevez care lo meet her except al some such place.’
What do you mean, F rank I Do you know anyduuk I

’Never.
’Then why do yon apeak thus I Do you imagine 1

“ Well, is what f”
’ Her low-necked dress.’
Tlie doctor burst mm a loud laugh, which lor some
time would not |*erinil him u> reply ,but at length, wi
ping tus cyea,exclaimed—
’Excuse me my dear fellow, but really the idea ol
judging a woman , character by the bullion ol her gown

’ Laugh on. my friend , but when you huve done per
mit me to explain It i* not so much of the fashion ol

cousin, and mice or twice perluips with me, or some oth
er intimate tnerui
• Harry, I have ran the emalleat doubt that if I go an I

abr never exchanged ten words with lira in her life, and

’ I would be Willing to wager my soul dint you could ,
not persuade her tu Jo it by any argunn lit in your lower 1 |

• Shall I try f
Yea ; but I advise you to make up your mind to a

* Well Harry, will you make me one promise ? If
she consents—if I can prove to you that she is as false,
ncklc, and light as I think her, will you except of my
proposal of to-day, and return with we to the city to
morrow I I now clearly see that the chain which
holds you here is love to that girl And trust me, Har
ry, she is not worthy of it. Your heart is too manly and
honorable to be placed in the keeping of such a butter
fly as that. Make me this promise, my dearcouain;
think of the brilliant prospects that the city opens to
you ; and why should you sacrifice them fora woman
W j T y n P° n you as one of a string of admirers,
and who, when you are away no doubt,gives to any other
man the same glances and inflections of voice which I
suppose have turned your head ?
she young doctor cast down his eyes, and for a few
moments thought deeply. When he spoke, his voice
assumed a more earnest and deeper tone than before.—
“Cousin r rank, ” said he, ‘I know you seek to do me
good and I thank you for it; and you know I have al
ways been disposed to rely very much on your judg
ment. I trust, however, that you are mistaken in your
estimate of ranny’s character ; I hope so, most fer
vently, for I will notoeny to you, Frank, that her im
age hi Is a large place in my heart. Let this, then, be
the test, you notice that she wears a rose-bud upon
I her boson, which I have already asked her for, and have
been refused. If you can induce her to waltz with you
| and to give you that rose bud, I will leave Willowvale
with you to-morrow; and make no doubt that I can soon
forget one unworthy of remembrance Now go and
I make the trial.’
F rank Hazleton crossed the room, and in another mo
ment made one of the knot of the beaux who surround
led the beauty of the evening. After some trivial con
versation, Mr. Hazleton made some remarks upon the
beauty of a waltz, which the band were playing ;
and then bowing low. inquired :
‘Will Miss Montgomery do the waltz and myself *o
distinguished an honor ns to take part in it with me ?
Fanny blushed,smiled and hesitated, but looking up,
she encountered the eyes of Dr. Heath, who had, al
most without knowing it,drawn nearer and nearer 10 the
group, until he made one of it, and was now listening
anxiously for the young girls answer. Fanny had a
! pretty large dash of coquetry in fcr composition, and
she wished to make her lover . little .csloiw . elides
that, she had found something very facinating in the
low musical tones of the stranger, and the respectfully
admiring looks which his dark eyes had given her
I She smiled assent, and the young man’s arm immedi
ately encircled her waist—his breath played upon her
j forhead and the waltz began. When fatigued with waltz
ing, nothing was more natural than that they should seat
j themselves m the recess of a window, to rest, and take
i breath. Frank Hazleton was deeply rend in woman’s
) heart.and well knew all the indiscrihable arts of deli-
I cate flattery, soft words that mean nothing glances
which say more than words, and all the other nne inery
of flirtation He was sincerely attached to his young rel
ative, and wished extremely to exhibit to him what he
j thought to be Fanny’s true character. So it is hardly
I to be wondered at, that at the end of half an hour,
j when Frank Hazleton rejoined his friend, the disputed
j rose-hud adorned his button-hole. He gave it to Dr.
i Heath,saying significantly,
‘You see, Harry !’
‘Yes,Frank, I see, and thank you for the lesson
Will you excuse me if I leave you to find the way
home alone.’’
‘Certainly, my dearfellew !’
Fanny, efuring this short conversation, had b,*en re
garding the two young men with anxious looks. She
had caught the deeply sorrowful expression of Dr.
Heath’s lace,as his friend give him the rose, and her
heart whispered that she had been trifling too far with
a manly, honest heart that had trusted in h*r ; she re
solved that she would retrieve her error ; ah* would
; not waltz any more that night, nor would she talk any
; more with the handsome strati :er, but would exert her
self to please the Doctor Alin nil, thought -hr. ].
\ though he is very agreeable and polished, and all that,
, I would a great deal rather spend an evening with
Dr. Heath. lam heartily sorry that I gave him die
rose. 1 wander what he is saying to Harry ; they are
looking at me, and Harry seems to be talking about
f me ; hut they must not think I am watching them,
though I should like to knovt’ why Harry looks so very
j unhappy. And so Fanny turned away her head and
j said a rw words to Mr Green, who as usual was pav
i ing devoted court to the little lady,and as usual, with
, I very poor success. When Fanny again looked around,
. the object of her thoughts was just leaving the room ;
, ami as he passed through the door he turned and cast
one look toward her. For many a day and many a
, ! night was that haggard face, with its mingled expres
sion of reproach, disappointment, sorrow and love,
t | preseut to Fanny’s mind.
Mr. Hazleton did not leave tbs room with his friend,
hut neither did he return to Mu* Montgomery. He
’ secured a seat by the side of Lizzy Warren, and was
soon deeply engaged in a conversation on poetry with
, i her. Fanny,however, in the last dance, found nerseif
vis-a-vis with him, and summoning courage, asked in
an indifferent tone—
{ ‘What has become of Dr. Heath ? I don’t see him.”
‘ He has allowed me to persuade him to return with
r me to Boston, where he has a prospect of excellent
practice ; and as we shall go to morrow morning, he
9 probably has some preparations to make.’
j Fanny turned deadly pale, and with difficulty pre
[ j vented herself from bursting into tears. Mr Hazleton
I | perceived her emotion, and for one moment felt some
; oomp.incrion at .having so abruptly informed her of the
, consequences of her light behavivi , fcui Lr
,j ly repeated to himself,—‘lt is only the fear of losing one
admirer : she will soon forget him in another.’
S Hazleton was no doubt harsh in his estimate of Fan
ny’s character ; but he had so great a reverence for the
j , delicacy and modesty which throws such a charm
around a woman, that, believing Fanny to be a stran
! ger to their hollowed influence, he at once concluded
that there could be nothing estimable about her Had
’ she been dressed to suit him, and had she refused to
1 waltz with him, he would, no doubt, have appreciated
, ! her extraordinary beauty, both of body and intellect
, , As it was, he regarded her with the utmost contempt.
I if not abhorrence. and heartily congratulated himself
on having rescued his friend from the dangerous poai
’ | tion in which he had fround him
Fanny went home that night with a heavy hetrt
i She suspected trie truth, but not the whole of it. But
i surely, surely, thought she he will call upon ine to
! morrow .before he goes. YYhat a fool I was to waltz
with that man, when I knew how much he thinks of a
woman’s being reserved to strangers; and then that
, rose,—no doubt Mr. Hazleton allowed ato Harry .
perhaps that was whnt they were talking about so * ar
Oh, dear ’ how foolish I have been f And
poor Fanny sobbed herself to sleep The morrow cams,
and at every knock on the door, the color came and
went in Fanny’s cheek , but no Harry came ; and at
last, as the poor girl sat gazing from the window, with
her eyes lull of tears, the stage muled by. and on the
o utside were two forms, one of which fanny recog
nized as Harry and tiieother Hazleroii.or ssshe mental
ly termed him, Mephistophiles Neither looked towards
the house . and as the stage rolled from lier sight, Fan
ny covered her face with her hands and gave way to
the tears winch seemed to be choking her.
A year had passed and Fannv sat with her cousin
Lizzy Warren, working upon u bridal dnss.f ilu* lat
ter. Fanoy’s cheek was somewhat paler and thinner
than when she danced at the Christinas ball ; and her
hazle eyes had exchanged their wild, gay s|srkle, for a
softer, and perhaps sadder light. She did not smile so
often, but when she did, there was a sweetness in the
siniie, which, before, it had wanted Her voice,
: too, did not trill out so much like a bird’s, as it formerly
I did,but had s slight and subdued pathos ill its gentle
j tones, which if it made it less brttfiaut, was hldiscnba-
I biy more lovable than the gay and ringing tunes of a
year before. Hut |*rhaps the most obsrrvabl** change
was hi her dress. It was almost nunlike in its iiupliri
ty,covering the neck to th- throat, ami the arms to the
wrist. Lizzy’s sweet face had an additional happiness
and any one would have kuown.by watching the varying
color, the auides whichever uni anon dimpled her ice,
and the exprcmion of sweet and mingled recollection
and anticipation which her face wore, that she w..s
! “bout io become a happy bride. Bhe was the tint to
break a long alienor, by saying,
“Fanny, Frank says he is going to bring down his
, Ineiid, Dr Heath, to the wedding/
) ‘lndeed!’ said Fanny, and bent more closely over
her work.
‘Yes.you have not sreuhiui since he left,have you ?*
pursued Jazzy
‘No,dear, flow do yor like these plaits? answered
Fanny.
’Ob the plaits are well enough ; but I want to tell
you a story which Frank told me yesterday, before he
went home. Would you like to marit I’

Li tiy proceeded to fell her of th • conversation of the
two young men si the hall ; of the trap which bad been
laid lor her,and into which she had fallen, and of Har
ry's resolution to forget her, and of his efforts that way.
Lizzy concluded with dies*- words—-‘But since Frank
has lieen down here so much and wen * much of yisir

He was present at the siege of Fort Moultrie, m the ca

When, in consequence of the surrender of Charles

Mnriuu was one of die lew inhabitants of that state
who resolved to resist the new government, tie accor
dingly collected a frw volunteers and began a partisan
war against Cornwallis. Rutledge, die Governor of
South Caroline, presented him with the commission of
a brigadier ; and, armed with this authority, recruits be
gun to flock to him from every side. His name soon
became a terror to the foe. Cautious, but bold ; never
desponding in the darkest hour and, possessing great
skill ui the management of militia, Marion gradually
gained ground 011 the British, destroying detachment,
.after detachment and winning post after, poet, until
finally, on Green’s return to .South Carolina, W* saw his
state viitually delivered from the conquerois
Between Greene and Munon the merit of delivering
the 6outh must be divided. Gieene led the regular
force: Marion the militia. Neither could have suc
ceeded without the other. Greene of course, has the
first share ; but Marion is entitled to the second.
