TJIE MACON DAILY TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER: WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 10, 1873. (T'tltqrnpli AJfltswtger W 1 I A'! * I' \ > Ml ti:' IN ,; -' 1 ’ ■ I ..-1 " ' A JIadman* I had i s I.ovc. tb I mi most in- ii'-ociaUxl with Edwin dc Give, n r known the date intimney of Iinitht rh - <1, 1 ^in j an only child, and he, to a great extent, had taken a brother'* place in my heart. We had attended day and grammar schools together, and oar college life waa pawed at Yale in the ■une friendly relation we had always en- joy.d. Daring oi. ■ of onr vacation..— that intervening between onr junior and senior terms—ire concluded to moke a walking tour through one or two of the Eastern States, returning only in timo for the commencement of the last session of our - bool days. Most delightfully did we pass the time—wandering through Talleys, climbing mountains, resting in the farm-houses by tho way, many times sleeping out in the open air, feeling that security from danger which only comes to us in earth’s silent places. In one of the villages where we preposed spendings day or two.having token letters of introduction from one of our professors to a friend .Edwin become so fascinated by the beauty and charms of a young Southern girl he met with difficulty I per- thcre, that it auaded him to continue our travels. From the hour ho met her. his whole nature seemed changed. From a cold, repul. sire rather than engaging manner, be becamo animate.). brilliant and attrac tive. Quiet in his deportment usually, he' now plungi<f into every gaiety that presented itself, and from his almost wonderful conversational gift*, handsome person and evident efforts to please, be came remarkably popular among the old oa well aa the young memliera of society. I had been so accustomed to receiving confidential communications from my fellow-student* as regarded their lore af fairs, having heard them pledge them- aelvea to constancy aa often as they found a now face that' provod attractive for the moment, that I had but little doubt I should soon sritneos a similar change in him. After our vacation was post, wo re turned to our duties and as ail thedaysand a good portion of each night were given to hard study, hut little time was left to do- veto to the romance of life. Edwin se& dom mentioned the namonf his loved one, and I never knew, save by on increased desire for solitude which occasionally j><,» sesaed him, whan her letters came. lie shared tho lion, ws of hia class at the < I".-o of Io.m rnivonot.i ■ ■ r • . in.I I ic .or Iuvid my friend so well as the day an which ho delivered hi* valedictory ad- , dress, for then I felt that my pride as well as my loro was gratified, and I gloried in the honors lumped upon him, for J felt and knew they were well Ixj- ! stowed. Freto os we will about the purity of friendship, no man or woman ever 1 Joyed friend or lover the less for tho poi- | session of those faculties that; inspire a i fueling of admiration ami pride in other liodoins than one’s own. We were to re- ' turn to Georgia by way of tho Virginia beauty's home, and Edwin was all impa tience till we had turned our faces south ward. On our arrival at tho homo of his lovod one, he became engaged, with the consent of her guardian, and his early marriage was considered an established fact. After lingering a week, nil of which timo was passed by my friend in acts of devotion to his betrothed, wo resumed our travels, I. with a feeling of ocstacy nt tho thought of soon joining those ho dear to me, and ns wo neared our heme my spirits rose in proportion as tho down- east looks and sighs of sorrow, which it secured impossible for Edwin to shako off, increased. Our lost day’s journey was’spent by hint ill almost entire silence, nnd tlm only remark f remember his having volun teered to make, was, that olthongh Ids love had prospered, been returned, nnd there was apparently no reason why a speedy consummation should not take placo, he feltn conviction he in vain tried to shake off, that some unforeseen event would occur by which ho would never claim os his own, the woman ho loved. Tho joy of reaching home, the warm wel come ertendod by his family and friends foiled to remove this burden of fear ful presentiment which he indulg.sl. nnd by indulging increased, till I scarcely re cognized in tho morose, brooding, restless mult, my friend who only a short while ugo had boon so full of hope and antici pations of a brilliant life and a happy one. lie novor spoke to me of any misunder standing that had taken place lretwoen them, and I have never known how the change came about. I was called away from home unexpect edly. nnd my stay w as prolonged by a stto- cession of emnimstaneiw which rendered my return impracticable. At tho expira tion of three months I wont back to C' , and on my jlrriv.il received fearful ac counts of tho efforts a disappointment in love bad had upon my friend. I went the licit day to «oo him, ami such n wroek of manhood I pmy.Qod I may never witness again. He knew mo at once, nnd in the ■pilot of despair handed me a letter, tell ing in,- ’twas the last he had received, and asked me to road to lu’m what I sliall hero make public os well ns I ennremem ber the wonts, after tho lapse of so many years. W V*., May. 1840. Just before leaving my native Land, f steal a moment from tho leave-taking of the dear ones nround me. to bid good-hvo to you, my friend—a long, loot good bye. In an hour I shall have loft the horn*Of childhood, and before this reaches you, I shall bo on the ocean withFmncis, my husband, eldest son of Lord Henry Ormon l. of norsetshire, England, who - ^ we shall make onr home.

She matched firmly up to tb" window, and in tones not more than half as dnleet a* those she had used on entering the lank, asked for the money oa that check. Now, if she hod l*.,-n a man, she would have been snubbed by the t Her, shoved by the men, laughed nt by the boys, and generally badly treated; but. 1 sting a woman, she was let alone, partly from politeness, bat more because it would take more time to rea son with her than to let her have her own way—to say nothing of the chances of her having it anyhow. So the paying teller took the check, glanced at it after tho manner of his class, and politely in- qnired. “ Large or small bills, madam w* lint by this time madam had lieoome lost in meditation on the question of how she would trim that new walking suit, and it was some timo before she could be arous- en—in fact, the question had to be re- peatod, not quite so politely. “ What ? Oh! yeas, let me see. Large, I guess.” Three or four of those marvellous flashes of the hands and the bills are before her Of course die had to count them, and you know how a woman counts money. First she takes one bill off the pile and looks _ A fa . f..’ .* le f, isrl 1 -i ■ i* ,1 — a EXTRACTS FROM at it suspiciously and lays it down a little ways off; then she takes the next one and then the next, counting out loud all tho time, and then she mislays a bill, and finally she looks up and says it ain’t right, and then sho counts it locks again and guesses she may Ire right after all. All that this woman did, and that paying- teller and those men and beys looked on and called her blessed—only they spoiled it the other way, and then that blessed woman rolled up that money and put it in that Bussia-leathcr portemonnie, and then she bit her lip and looked thought ful, and then sho said in “velvet voice “Couldn’t yon give me small MUs for half of this f" The paying-teller intimated that it was in the resources of the hank, whereupon she unrolled tho bills and c.irefnlly counted off half, which sho can tiously handed over, getting tho small bills in rctnrn. Then she rolled these up and put them in the portmonnaic, but they filled it so full it wouldn’t clasp, and of course she couldn't go up Brvndwwy with it gaping open. So, after she had tried tosbntita few times, she said: “Oh, dear! they’re in sueha wad.eonldn't you give me about twenty-fivo dollars in small bills and the rest in large ?’’ Silently that teller took those bills; his heart was too full for utterance; mournfully he made the ex change nnd solemnly he handed lock the money. Ho didn’t swear out loud, lint liia lips were moving, and if that record ing angel who blot till Uncle Toby’s «tth with a tear was on duty that day he must hare had a severe crying spell just then. At last, at half-past two, sho rolled up those bills, put them in that portmonnaie, picked up her parasol nnd gloves, which she lis/1 laid on tho shelf, and smiled sweetly and said: “There! They said I couldn’t get a cheek cashod; but I told ’em I knew I could;and I have.” Tlion that teller op.**! hif. mouth and Raid, "Madame, you have—V And sho had.

She sold her land, building?* and improvementsono day for $2,000, and received tho money in cash on the spot, in her own honse, where the act of salo was passed Indore two witne «es, the num ber n»quLre<l by law, and wlio witnessed also the pay in" of tho money. In a short time she was to pive ]»oss«*H.sion, but sho remained in the house the ni^ht following tho sale, all alone, or with no masculine adult inmatur, as was her custom.
