ATLANTAGEORGIA,
Wednesday, May 2P, 1870.
A DAY IN PETTICOATS.
ET A MODEST TOTING MAN.
“ I couldn’t think of each a thing.”
“ Bat if you must. My happiness de
pends on it. Here, put on the thing
mnbods; and the what’s its name.”
And nay friend, Bob Styles, held up be
fore ray hesitated gaze a whole suit of
feminine apparel.
His Idea was that I should personate
bis lady love for one day, to prevent any
body lrom suspecting the truth—namely
that Bhe had joined him in a runaway
marriage party—until it should be too
iatefor interference; that is, until the min
ister should have tied a knot between
them that nothing but a special grant of
the Legislature could untie.
The scheme was not actually so absurd
as it appeared at first sight.
Maggie Lee was a tall queenly woman,
with an almost masculine air, and at that
time I had a very slight form—almost ef
feminate, so that, in fact, there was really
but little difference in that point. Then
I had light hair parted in the middle, and
with a bonnet on my head, few persons
would suspect that I was not the other
sex. These accessories also gave rao quite
a decided resemblance to Maggie Lee, es
pecially when a9 in this case, the disguise
was her own.
Maggie’s pa was to drive her to D ,
a small village near where she lived, and
there she was to join a sailing party down
D—-River, to the grove three miles be
low ; from which the party was to return
in the evening in carriages.
Our plan was that I should be waiting
in the village, and should go to the boat
with the sailing party, while Maggie after
leaving her father should slip off - with
Bob Styles across the country.
At last I got dressed and presented my-
rdf before Maggie, blushing a great deal,
I believe feeling very much pinched
about the waist, and with an uncomfort
able consciousness that my shirt sleeves
were too short or wanting altogether.
Everything finished in the way of toi
lette, Bob Styles took me into his light
wagon and drove me over to D , by
a secluded route, and left me at the hotel
where the sailing party were to assemble.
Several of the pioneers were already there,
and they greeted my chevalier with cor
diality, (everybody knew Bob Styles,) ask
ing if he was going with them. He told
them he was not.
“ Pressing business engagements, you
know and all that sort of thing. Deuced
sorry can’t go through. I just had time
to bring Miss Lee over, and now I’m oft'.
Mr. Biraby this is Miss Lee, Miss Wither-
gail, Miss Lee,” and ho rattled off a long
string ol brief introductions.
Mr. Bimby. a tall, legal looking gentle
man, with a hook nose, and an eyeglass
and puffy hair, seemed to be prepossessed
with my pcrsonclle, and I overheard him
whisper to Bob Styles, as he went out:
“ Nice looking girl, that Miss Lee.”
“ Yes,” answered Bob, with a mischiev
ous glance at me. “ She’s a nice^ girl,
tho’ a little go ahead sometimes. Keep a
little look on her will you,” then lowering
his voice said, “ not a bad match for you
old fellow, she is rich.”
“ Is she ?” said Bimby, his interest deep
ening.
“ On my honor,” replied Bob. “Forty
thousand in her own right. Day, day 1”
and he was gone,
Maggie Lee, artful creature that she was
had told her father that the sailing party
was to assemble at another hotel, and
thither he had taken her. Having busi
ness to D , be had left her there say
ing that ho would send the carriage for
her at eleven o’clock. She like a dutiful
daughter, kissed him and bade him good
bye, and before be had gone one hundred
rods got in Bob Styles’s light wagon
which had been driven up to the back
door as Mr. Lee’s drove from the front,
and the old story of head-strong love and
prejudicatcd ago, was enacted over once
more.
As lor ns of the picnic excursion, we
had a delightful sail down to the grove
but somehow I could not enjoy it as much
as I should have done. "VVhen I walked
on board the boat, I felt awkward as if
everybody was looking at me. I found
Mr. Bimby as I had expected a young aud
rising lawyer, mighty in Blackstone in
his own opinion. He paid my fare (the
boat was an excursion packet,) and
brought me oranges, pears and candies
enough to set up a street stand. Four or
fivo times I was on the point of aw earing
at his impudent ofiiciousness, but bit my
tongue just in time to prevent my expo
sure. But it was not with him that I
found my role the hardest to play.
No, the ladies were the difficult ones to
deceive. For instance, there was one of
them, a beautiful girl of seventeen, just
returned from boarding sohool, who had
not seen Maggie Lee for three years. Of
course she was glad to see me, when she
found out that 1 was Maggie Lee, which
by the way, did not occur until after wi
had started She threw herself into my
arms, pulled my veil aside, and kissed me
haif a dozen time s in a manner that made
my finger ends tingle for an hour. It was
all very nice, but if it had been in “ pro
pria persona,” I would have liked it bet
ter. As it was I felt as if I was “ obtain
ing goods under false pretenses,” and law
yer Bimby might issue, a warrant for my
urrest on that ground, at any moment.
A whole knot of crinoline then sur
rounded me, on the upper deck of the
boat, to the utter exclusion and consequent
disgust of Mr. Bimby and all tho other
gentlemen. I kept very quiet, only speak
ing iu monosylables iu a falsetto voice.
But the others—Lord bless you 5 how they
gabbled? Under a strict promise of se-
cresy, the little boardieg school maiden
who had kissed me so affectionately, re
vealed all her love affairs, and also became
very unpleasantly confidential about other
matters—innocent enough in themselves,
but not customarily talked of between
ladies and gentlemen. I was terribly em
barrassed, but it would not do to give up
then. As soon as my trick should become
known, Bob Styles’ trick would come out,
and news of that kind travels fast in the
country, and he and bi9 lady love would
be telegraphed aud followed, before they
could rt-aoh Philadelphia, whore the knot
was to be tied.
We soon arrived at the grove, and found
our band—engaged beforehand—awaiting
us. Of course dancin<* was the first
amusement, and lawyer Bimby led me out
for a schottische. It was hard at first
for me to take the lady’s part in the dance,
but I soon got accustomed to it. A waltz
was proposed, and I resolved to have a
little amusement at the expenses of the
unfortunate Mr. Bimby.
I had at first purposely made him jeal
ous by dancing with two other young
fellows, one of whom I knew, in my own
character, but who never suspected me as
Maggie I^ee. The young lady killer—a
tort of easy, devil-may-care rascal, who
made the ladies ruu after him, by his al
ternate warmth of action and coolness of
protestation. I selected him to play off
against my legal admirer. I allowed him
to hold on to me very closely, and occa
sionally looked at him in a half fascina
ting expressi >n. When we stopped danc
ing, he led me to my seat, keeping his arm
about my -.vaist, and I permitted it.
Having thus stirred Bimby up to wratb-
fal feats of valor, I asked one of the gen
tlcnmn to direct the musicians to play a
waltz. Bimby camo immediately.
“ Alim—Miss Maggie Lee, shall I have
the honor of—a—trying to waltz with
you?”
I smiled a gracious acquiescence, and
we commenced.
Now, I am an old stager at waltzing.
I can keep up longer than any non-pro
fessional dancer, male or female, whom I
have ever met. As long as Cachuca or
Schounebrunnen, rings in iny ears, I can
go on, if it is a year.
Not so with Bimby. He pleaded want
of practice, and said he soon got dizzy.
“Aha, old boy,” thought I, I’ll give
yon a turn, then.”
But I only smiled and said I should
probably get tired first.
“ Oh, ye.-,” he exclaimed. “ Of course;
I can waltz as long as any one lady, but
not ranch more.”
For the first three minutes my cavalier
did well. He went smoothly and evenly,
but at the expiration of that time begun
to grow warm.
Five minutes elapsed and Bimby’s breath
came harder and harder.
On he went, however, and I scorned to
notice his slackening up at every round,
when he passed my seat.
After some ten or twelve minutes the
wretched man gasped out between his
steps.
“A—a—are you not—get—getting
very tired ?”
“ Oil, no 1” I burst forth cooly as if we
were riding round the room, “ oh, no, I
felt as though I could dance all night 1”
The look of despair he gave me was
terrible to see.
I was bound to see him through how
ever, and we kept at it. Bimby staggered
and made wild steps in all directions.
His shirt collar wilted, eyes protused, bis
jaw hung down : and altogether I saw he
could not hold out much longer.
“ This is delightful,” said I, “ and you
Mr. Bimby, waltz so easily.”
“ Puff—puff—ah—puff—yes—oh—puff
—very delightful,” he gasped.
“ Don’t you think it ought to go a little
faster?” He rolled his eyes heavenward
in agony,
“Ah, puff—I don’t—ah, puff—don’t
know.”
So when we neared the musicians, I
said: “Faster, if you please, faster,” and
they played a la whirlwind.
Poor Bimby threw his feet about like
a fast pacer, and revolted after the manner
of a teetotum which was nearly run down.
At last he staggered a step backward, and
spinning eccentrically away from me,
pitching headlong into the midst of a bevy
of girls in a corner. I turned around,
cooly and walked to my seat, and sent the
woman-killer after a glass of ice-water.
Tho miserable lawyer recovered his
senses just in time to thank his rival for
his water.
I got some idea from this of the fun
young ladies have in tormenting us poor
devils of the other sex.
At this juncture, and before Mr. Bimby
had time to apologize for his accident,
little Jennie came running into the pavil
ion which served for a ball-room. As she
came near, I perceived that her hands
were clutched tightly in her dress, and I
positively shuddered as she whispered to
me : “ Oh Maggie! come help me fix my
skirt—they are all coming down.”
What should I do ? I was in agony.—
A cold perspiration broke out upon my
forehead, I wished myself a thousand
miles away, and anathmatized Bob Styles’
masquerading project, inwardly, with fear
ful maledictious.
I said I was tired—could not somebody
else go ?
No nothing would do but I must ac
company her to the house of a gentleman
who owned the grove, and assist her to
arrange her clothing.
What if it should be necessary to re
move tlie greater part of her raiment ?—
What if she should tell me to do some
sewing ? What if iu the midst of all the
embarrassments of being closeted with a
beautiful girl of seventeen in a 3tate of
compariiive freedom from drapery, my
real sex should be discovered by her?
I felt as if an appoplectic fit would be
fortunate occurrences for me just then.—
However, I nerved myself for the task,
and acoompanied Jennie to the house des
ignated. An old lady showed us to her
chamber, and Jennie, heaving a aigh of
relief, let go her dress. As she did so, a
—pardon my blushes—petticoat fell to the
floor. She was about to proceed but I
alarmed her by a sudden aud vehement
gesture.
“Stop!” I cried frantically, and forget
ting my falsetto, “don’t undress, for
God’s sake!”
She opened her great brown eyes to
their wildest extent.
“And why not ?”
“ Because I am—I am—a—can you
keep a secret ?”
“Why, yes, how frightened you look 1—
Why, what is the matter, Maggie? you—
why—oh ! oh ! oh!”
And she gave three screams.
“ Hush, no noise, or I am lost!” I ex
claimed, putting my hand over her mouth,
“ I swear I mean no harm, if I had I
would not have stopped you. Don’t you
see ?”
She was all of a tremble.
Poor little thing; but she saw the force
of my argument.
“ Oh, sir,” she said, “ I see you are a
man; but what does it all mean? Why
did you dress so ?” I told her the story as
briefly as possible, after exacting from her
a promise of the most sacred secrecy.
I then went outside the door, and waited
till she had arranged her dress, when she
called me again. She had heard of me
from Maggie and others, and wanted to
hear all the particulars; so I sat down by
her, and we had a long talk, which ended
in mutual feeling of friendlineas and old
acquaintanceship quite wonderful for peo
ple meeting for the first time. Just as we
started to go back to the pavillion, I said
I must relieve my mind of jast one more
burden.
“ And what is that ?” she said.
“Those kisses. You thought I was
Maggie Lee, or yon would not have given
them. They were very sweet, but I sup
pose I must give them back.”
And I did.
She blushed a great deal, but she did
not resist, only when I got through she
glanced and said—
“ I think yoa are real naughty,”
When we returned I found Lawyer
Bimby quite recovered from his dizziness,
and all hands ready for supper, which was
served in the ball-room. I sat between
Bimby and Jennie, and made love to both
in turn, to one as Maggie Lee, aud the
other as myself. After supper, at which
I astonished a great many by eating
rather more heartily than young ladies
generally do, we had more dancing, and I
hinted pretty strongly to Mr. Bimby that
I should like to take another wait*.
mwFwi
MM
He didn’t take the hint.
Finding it rather dry amnsement to
dance with my own kind, I soon aban
doned the pleasure and persuaded Jennie
to Lake a stroll off into the moonlight with
me. We found the grove a charming
place, full of picturesque little comers and
rustic seats, great gray rocks leaning out
over the river. On one side of these lat
ter a little bench was placed, in a nook
shelter from the wind and from sight.
Here we sat in full flood of the moon
light, and having just had dinner, I felt
wonderfully the need of a cigar. Accord-
ingly, I went back to a little stand near
the ball-room and purchased several of the
wondering woman who sold refreshments;
then returned to the seat by the rock. I
gave up all cares or fears for my incog
nito, and revelled in the pleasures of soli
tude—the fragrance of ray cigar—the—
moonlignt—and little Jennie’s presence.
How long we sat there heaven knows.
We talked and laughed and sang, and
looked into each other’s eyes, and told for
tunes ; and performed all the nonsical oper
ations common amongst young people just
falling in love with ench^nber, might have
remained there till the month of August
in the year of our Lord eighteen hundred
and sixty nine, for ought I know, had
not the carriage been sent to convey us
home, and the rest of the company began
to wonder where we were. This wonder
begat questioning, the questions fears,
and fears search, headed by the valiant
Bimby.
They called, and looked, and listened,
but our position down iu the sheltered
nook among the rocks, prevented them
from hearing us or us them.
At last they hit our path, and all came
along, single file, and got to the open
space above. Then they saw a sight. I
sat in a free and easy position, my bon
net off, and my hair somewhat towzed up,
puffing away in a very unladylike style.
Jennie was sitting close beside me with
her head almost on my shoulder and her
small waist encircled by my arm. Just
as the party came along above, I heard a
fhud masculine voice.
“ Just to think of that what’s his name,
Bimby! Suppose he knew that he had
been making love to a man?”
“ Hush!” cried Jennie. “ Look, there
he is, and oh, my gracious! there is the
whole company!”
“ Yes, we are fairly caught.”
It was no use for me to clap on ray bon
net and assume my falsetto again—they
had all seen too much for that. Besides,
by this time Bob Styles and Maggie Lee
were doubtless “ one flesh,” and my dis
guise was of no further importance, so I
owned up and told the story.
Lawyer Bimby was in a rage. He
vowed to kill me, and even squared off,
but the rest of the party laughed at him
so unmercifully, and suggested that we
should waltz it out together, that he finally
cooled and slunk away to take some
private conveyance to D .
Bob Styles and I are living in a double
house together. He often says he owes
his wife to my masquerading, but he
doesn’t feel under any obligations to me,
for I owe my wife to the same thing.
N. B. My wife’s name is Jennie.

WASHINGTON.
FARTURItiNT MONTHS, ETC.
■Washington. D. C., May 17.—There was
quite a commotion among the members ot the
press here yesterday on account ot the Presi
dent calling a special session ot the cabinet.
War with Spain - Trouble with the Fenians—
Indian question—the probable resignation ot
Secretary Fish, that gentleman being absent
from the citv, and a thousand other reasons
Were assigned. The President, however, settled
all surmises on the subject by stating that he
.--imply convened the cabinet because there was
to be a lunch party given by Mrs. Grant to-day
at 1$ o’clock, and be desired to attend and to
give the cabinet and officers with their families
the same opportunity.
TUB FATE OF GEORGIA.
The Reconstruction Committee agreed to
report a bill re-admitting the State ot Georgia
on terms precisely hke those applied to Vir
ginia, Mississippi and Texas, with the addition
that the tour S'ates named are allowed to
organize, arm and call into service their respect
ive militia forces.
FUNDING BILL.
The Committee on Wavs and Means post
poned me luudmg bill until Tuesday next.
REPUBLICAN CAUCUS.
The much talked of Republican caucus of
Senators and members was held last night. The
attendance was slim and nothing wa- done hut
toagiee to appoint a Congressional Compaign
Committee to look alter the tail < 1-ciious. Tue
intention to recommend any general policy was
arandonerl, on the ground that the party was
makiDg up i's record in Congress on the ques
tions ot taxation and tariff. It was agreed that
the Southern States should be specially cared
tor in the political campaign.
BRIBERY INVESTIGATION.
The Senatorial investigation into the alleged
allegations ot bribery to influence votes against
the Bingham amendment to the Georgia bill was
closed yesterday, so lar as the evidence is con
cerned, and the committee will now proceed to
make up their repo it. Governor Bullock, ot
Georgia, was before the committee tor a long
time to-day, and was very emphatic in his de-
Dials that any money was improperly used with
bis knowledge to influence legislation in the
Georgia bill in the Senate. The money be paid
to Forney he said was tor legitimate public and
private printing. The com mi'tee have unearthed
some ot the operations ot the Washington lobby,
but it does not appear that any Senator was
bribed.
THE FIFTEENTH AMENDMENT.
Both houses considered a bill yesterday to
enlorce the Filteenth Amendment, by virtue of
tbe second section, which gives Congress the
power to pass appropriate legislation to secure
equality in voting. The benate debated its bill
all day without a vote, but the House put its
bill lb rough without a word of debate, UDder
the previous question. The Democrats de
nounced the pructe img as a great outrage, and
declared it was one of the most important
measures ever considered in Congr-ss, and
onght to have been debated. It imposes fine
aud imprisonment on any person who resorts
to any device or hindrance to prevent colored
persons from voting.
NEW YOKE.
Atlanta, Ga., May 13, 1870.
A card appears in your morning edition
which was copied from the Constitution, with
comments from D. P. H"»H, Bkq., of your city,
that does me injustice. It reflects directly upon
my integrity as a gentleman, and I cannot per
mit my character to be assailed by any one
without prompily meeting the charges. I am
not responsible for what the editor of the Con-
stitution has written in regard to Mr. Brock, of
the Senate ; neither did I intend the note at tbe
bottom ot the article for publication, as it wa*
casually written across the back ot the resolu
tions, which I omitted to cancel. But these are
matters of secondary importance in this com
munication. Mr. Hill, in his strictures, pro
ceeds to comment uoon the phrase as published:
“ D Pike Hill. Clerk, made the only speech againtl
their adoption,'' (meaning my resolution,) which
he says is false.
.In my opinion it is true, and I do not mean
to cast any invidious reflection upon the intelli
gence of any member of the Committee who
opposed the resolutions in making the assertion,
but hope they will allow me to be candid in
sayiLg that Mr. Hill’s speech, in my Judgment,
secured the defeat of the resolutions. Neither
Mr. Hill nor any member of tho committee
will say that he did not make a speech on that
occasion. Again be says in his strictures: “ Mr.
Phillips made the point ot order that the Cleik
could not be heard, not being a member ot the
Committee. This is false."
The facts, according to my recollection, are
as lollows; I rose in my place and said to the
Chairman that I did not deem it necessary to
make a point ol order on the Cleik, he not be
ing a member, and as tbe Committee had
already requested him to speak, I conaideud
the point viitoally decided, because every mem
ber of the Committee, except myself, was in
favor of his m iking a speech. It they were
not, they did not make their objections known.
The inquiry will arise here why should I call
upon a committee to decide a question already
decided by thrmf Why make the point ot
order when tue committee bad permitted Mr.
Hill to proceed and could not, if they were sin
cere in *their actions, entertain it? It would
have been an useless consumption of time. This
is the simple and ccrrtct version of the matter
as I understood it.
He proceeds larther with his quotations and
says: “Tbe Committee decided that the Clerk
could be heard. This is falee.” In reply 'o this
charge, .1 will say, Mr. Parks, ot Gwinnett, rose
from his seat and asked that the Clerk give his
views on the resolution, which Mr. Hill pro
ceeded to do.
I deem it necessary to make these statements
in vindication of my course, so tar as my con
nection with the article published in tbe Consti
tution is concerned. R. W. Phillips.
Note.—My friend, Col. Price, will show to
Col. Hill tbe foregoing communication, and it
tbe explanations be satisfactory to him, tbe same
will be published in order that the public may
properly understand how these wrong impres
sions found their way into tbe pnblic prints.
R. W. Phillips.
Atlanta, Ga., May 18,1870.
Hon. R W. Phillips :
Bib—Your article prepared for the press, and
shown me by your friend, Col. W. P. Price, is
such an explanation of the original article,
which drew lorth my card, as to fully satisfy
me, and I withdraw any offensive language need
by me iu my card, which might be construed as
applying to yourselL Respectfully,
D. P. Hill.
A Terrible Calamity, *
The Cartersville Repress of yesterday con
tains the lollowing account of a terrible calamity
which recently occurred in that place :
Our whole town has been under deep gloom
as under a dark cloud.
On Saturday night, the 14th inst, the-eldest
daughter of Rev A. M. S.-imtord, while filling a
lamp with oil, it blazed up, and the fluid satu
rated a part ot her dress, which at once canght
on lire, and burnt so fiercely that it could not
be distinguished, and alas I her injuries were so
severe that she expired at 11 o’clock on Sunday
morning. Thus has passed away a lovely
daughter of about 14 summers. Bhe was tbe
light of her household, the darling object ot ber
parents’ hearts, the loved ol her schoolmates,
the attentive scholar, endowed with an unusual
degree ot gentleness in one so young. Rarely
has one ot her youth been gifted with so many
qualities to challenge the admiration of all who
knew her. But she hag passed away; she fell
asleep in Jesus, whom she loved and trusted —
Bhe is dow in the bright realms of gloiy; she
is not dead; she lives forever. We tender our
heartfelt sympathies in common with the whole
community to the parents ol the departed child.
May God moderate their deep affl.ction, and
bring a balm to their wounded hearts, in the
consoling reflection that they can meet her bye-
and-oye in the “ Beiterland.”
Let our ci izens Deware of replenishing their
lamps by night.
Anti-Female Buffrage Organ.—The Her
ald's Washington special, ot the lltb says:
Mrs. E. A Lane, a rather handsome woman,
et about thirty, is here getting what encourage
ment she can towards starling a weekly paper
in the interests ot the working women.—
It is to oppose woman suffrage and tbe numer
ous isms connected therewith. General Butler
endorses the project, and to-day gave Mrs. Lane
a check tor $500. Senator Wilson gave $50 —
It is said that Senator Sprague gave $1000, with
liberty to draw upon him “ at sight ” in case ot
Deed. Other Senators and members are giving
liberally, and Mrs. Lane will probably go away
with a substantial proof of the opposition of
Oongrt SBinen to woman suffrage.
THE election—Tammany triumphant—THE

There is no other manufacture of any kind in the

1 hese time-pieees combine every improvement that
a long experience has proved of real practical use.
Having sad the refusal of nearly every invention in
watchmaking originating In this country oris Europe,
only those were finally adopted which severe testing by
the most skillful artisans in our works, and long use on
the part of the public, demonstrated to be essential to
correct and enduring time-keeping.
Among the many improvement we would par.lcn-
lariae:
The invention and use ot a centre-pinion of peculiar
construction, to prevent damage to the train by the
breakage of main springs, is original with the American
Watch Company, who, having had the rsiusal of all
other contrivances, adopted Fogg’s Patent pinion as
being tbe best and faultless.
Hardened and tempered hair springs, now universally
admitted by watchmakers to be the best, are used iu all
grades of Waltham Watches.
All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, protect
ing the movements from dust and lessening the necessi
ty of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watches.
Onr new patent stem-wtnier, or keyless watch. Is
already a decided success and a great improvement on
any stem—winding watch in tho American market, and
by far the cheapest watch ot its quality now offered to
the public. To those living in portions of the United
States where watchmakers do not abound, watche r with
the above mentioned improvements which tend to
insure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and convenience,
must prove invaluable.
Every watch guaranteed by tbe Company.
To prevent Imposition, buyers should see that every
watch should hear either of the following trade marks :
American Watch Co Waltham, Mass.
a inn Watch Co Waltham, Mass.
American Watch Co., Crescent St.. .Waltham,Mass.
Appleton, Tracy & Co Waltham, Mass.
