THE LADY YOUN'G I. \DY.
Asia the!;; ’ c.ri atioo, uatnra lies created tlie
sloth, the use of which animal oe.r zoologists have
never been able to discover,—so in the young lady
creation we find an analogous eln s, whom, liorn
their habits, we denominate the lazy young lady
(daihlna jngra)
The lazy young letly was never known to get
through (he pronunciation of an ordinary mono
syllable n. less than thirty seconds. Assuredly
she must lravo a wonderful taste fur the beauties
of language—tor from her drawl, it is plain ihat
the is determined on enjoying, as long as she can,
every wo i that she utters, just as a prudent econ
omical child sucks his barley- sugar, instead of bi
ting it to pieces at once. Then observe the lazy
young lady’s attitude. Such a perfect lounge ou
the very easiest audiowest chair which she can
pick out. We verily believe she kntsws every
chair in the room by its comparativ e softness, p’v
possibly, (a we have sometimes thought,) she
may b -■ u born with an intuitive power of
known., tr: easiest chair at :> -t right, Ii it ie
winter, too, h k. ks are always most particular
ly red, from h r ctoni ofdra.rdug th&?aid chair
as near the fire • ;ble, and sitting there for
hours, with hertect oil the fender, bunediubuge
w orsted shoes, which remind you of the north
pole and Captain Ross.
The lazy young lady is sometimes thin, ars
som ;im -s fat, but generally the latter. On any
sudden concussion, her cheeks will shiver like
a jelly. If yon will believe her, she alwnvs a
headache—but for our own part, wa yffnnglv sus|
pect that this headache is very oftwij epure inven
tion to gratify her lazy propensities. It is quite
delightful to hear her colloquies wish “maincasi Y
‘ My tie t rurf and tell Betty that I want her dv
rectly.” Hadn’t Lbetter ring tho hell, mamma
says the luzv young lady. “No lay
