MISCELLANEOUS.
THE BASHFUL MAN.
By the Author of ‘ The Vestals or, a Tale of Pompeii.'
Let him who has never suffered from the hor-
I trors of bashfulncss, pass by this article. He
will find here nothing with which he can sym.
pathise. But he who knows the exquisite mise
ry of a temperament, whose very nature nl
most shuts him out from human sympathy, while
it opens upon him the full sluices of laughter and
ridicule, he only should read, for he only can un
derstand, this chapter of my sufferings. It is
hut a specimen of my life. Ex uno discs
omnes, To all others it will be a sealed foun
tain ; and, ns they pass it by in the proud con
sciousness of the unspeakable blessing of impu
dence, let them thank heaven that its waters
•can never flow tor them.
As my object is but, to give a specimen of the
numerous contre temps that incessantly beset
me, the moment I appear in ladies’ society, 1 shall
merely speak of those that befel me at the only
dinner in Paris, to which I was invited. Though
laden with introductory letters, 1 never deliver
ed another.
I pass by the various efforts I made, before
1 could muster sufficient resolution to deliver
to Madame 0., the one that procured for mo,
and a friend who came with me, the dinner
in question. I pass by, 100, my trepidation at the
everlasting peal wjth which the bell responded 1
to my timid touch. Sceurcely could I distin- 1
guish the Parlez au Suisse, over the porter’s
lodge, where probably Swiss never stood since
its creation. 1 pass by, too, several minor blun- 1
dors, such as asking the porter to direct us to
‘la chamhre dc Madame,' meaning her drawing. 1
room. Suffice it to say, that my less nervous 1
: companion, dictionary in hand, boldly led the
way; that having traversed a goodly number of ;
courts and stairs, wo at length arrived safely at
an ante-room, where stood a servant before a 1
I pair of folding doors, which he threw wide
open, and announcing us by a pair of names that
j we should never have recognized ns our own,
had wc met them elsewhere.
Already agitated, ami perspiring with nerv
ous trepidation, this ostentatious mode of on
trance, so different from the republican simplici
ty to which 1 was accustomed, was u formida
blc trial to mo. My cheeks tingled, my knees
trembled, and my heart beat violently. I slunk
silently behind my unabashed companion, and
endeavored to gather sufficient courage to con
ceal tlvc tremor that shook me like an ngue-fit.
. Mad. O. rose to receive us; and, as we approach
od her, it became necessary that I should dejiloye
from behind my friend. But in so doing, 1 did
not notice a large pet dog, who comfortably
stretched on a red velvet cushion, lay napping
beside his mistress, directly in my path. On 1
went, anxious only to get through the introduc-
I tory ceremonies as soon as possible, and then to
ensconce myself in some remote corner, where,
“The world forgetting, by the world forgot,
I might escape all notice or remark. But truly
says the French Proverb, “L’homme propose,
mats c'esl le him Dictt qui dispose;" and very un
| fortunate were his dispositions for my intentions.
• As I hastened on, all glowing with confusion, and
| quaking with fright, just as 1 began my bow, I
’ stumbled over the detested pet, and was sudden
ly precipitated head foremost, like an ancient
battering ram, into the lap of Miss P.; overturn
ing episodically a countryman of my own, who
was seated next her, balancing his chair on its
two hindlegs. To save himself, he instinctive
ly grasped the hack of her chair; anil his weight
, at her rear, acting at the same moment that I
was hurled at her in front, decided all hesitation,
and over we all rolled together, the chairs up
permost. The vile cur, who had been at the
bottom of the whole mischief, seized me by the
Sr, and, receiving a hearty kick in return, add
his howling to the chorus of dismay that now
filled the apartment. Happily, the female suf
ferer in this melee engrossed all the sympathy
and attention of the company ; but I well knew,
that in the short minute that had elapsed since 1
entered the appartment, I had made three mortal
enemies, of a man, a dog, and a lady.
For my own part, as soon as 1 had extricated
myself from the terrible crash, covered with con.
fusion and shame, I retreated into the most ob
scure corner of the room, where I sought to hide
myself and my overwhelming mortification, be
hind the guests who were lounging about there.
The call to dinner served us a relief to my
embarrassment, for I hoped that that would en
—gross every one’s attention, which now, I could
not help feeling, must he occupied with my awk
wardness. Following the company into the din
ing-room, 1 saw that each plate contained a card
on which was written the name of the guest who
was to occupy the place thus designated. Eve
ry one seemed to find his own place by magic ;
butfor me, four or five times did I make the’eir
cuit of the table, looking in vain for mine. In
deed I know not but I might hdve continued run
ning about unnoticed by the crowd of servants,
all dinner time, had not Mad. O.’s eye at length
detected mo, as I circled round and round, with
an hysterically increased rapidity, my eyes dim
with confusion, and a clammy perspiration be
dewing every pore of my body ; and I at length
sunk into my seat, when found, fairly exhausted
with mortification and shame. Here, again, I
found myself embarrassed with my hat, which,
having observed that all retained in their hands
in the drawing-room, I still grasped with ner
vous pertinacity. This lat length disposed of,
as 1 thought at the time, with wonderful ingenui
ty ; for I hung it by the brim between my knees,
spreading my handkerchief over its open cavity.
My seat was dext to a young lady, whom of
course I was expected to entertain. I entertain!
Wofully, already, bad I entertained the compa
ny ; hut I found myself infinitely better adapted
to entertain a company, en masse than singula
tim.
The ordinary routine of a French dinner now
commenced. Soup and bouillie, fish, and fowl,
and flesh ; entremets and hors d’ceuvres, while a
regular series of servants appeared each instant
at our elbows, inviting us to partake of a thou
sand different dishes, and as many different
kinds of wine, all under strings of names which
I no more understood, than 1 understood their
composition, or than they did my gaucheric.
Resolute to avoid nil further opportunities for
displaying my predominant trait, I sat in the
most obstinate silence, saying mu to everything
that was offered me, and eating with the most dc
voted applicat.on, till in an evil hour, my fair
neighbor, weary of my taciturnity &herown, at
length herself began a conversation, by enquir
ing how I was pleased with the opera. The
question was put at an unlucky moment. I was
just raising u largo morsel of potato to my mouth,
and in order to reply as quickly as possible, I
hastily thrust it in, intending to swallow it as
hastily. Heavens! it was hot as burning lava.
What could Ido I The lady’s eyes were fixed
on mo, waiting a reply to her question. But m v
mouth was in flames. In vain 1 rolled the burn
ing morsel hither and thither, rocking my head
from side to side, while my eyes, which involun
tarily I had fixed on her, wore straining from
their sockets. She regarded my grimaces, of
the cause of which I believe she was ignorant,
with an expression of amazement and surprise,
at which 1 can laugh now when I think of it.
“Monsieur est malade ?” at length she gently,
and in an anxious tone, inquired. 1 could bear
no marc. My mouth was flayed with the burn,
ing mass, and smarting with intolerable pain ; so,
quietly abandoning the point, I opened it toils
u:most, and out dropped the infernal firebrand
upon my plate. Not the slightest tendency to a
smile, visibly ruffled the imperturbable polite,
ness of the lady. Sbo soothingly condoled with
me in my misfortune, then gradually led the con.
versation to a variety of topics; till, exerting
the magic influence that true politeness always
exercises, I began to forgot even my own blun
ders. Gradually, my checks burned less pain
fully, and 1 could even join in flu; conversation
wituout the fear that every word [ ut cred shar
ed the fate of every action 1 attempted. 1 even
ventured to hope, nay, to congratulate myself,
that the catalogue of my calamities was complet
ed for the day.
‘ Let no one call himself happy before death,
said Solon; & he said wisely. The ides of March
were not yet over. Before us stood a dish of
cauliflower, nicely done in butter.—This I natu.
rally enough took for a custard.pudding which
it sufficiently resembled.* Unfortunately my
vocabulary was not yet extensive enough to
embrace till the technicalities of the table ; and
when my fair neighbor inquired if 1 were found
of chonx-feur, I verily took it to be the French
for custard-pudding , and so high was my pane
gyric of it, that my plate was soon bountifully
laden with it. alas one single mouthful was
enough to dispel my illusion.—Would to heaven
that the choux-Jleur had vanished along with it.
But that remained bodily; and, as I gazed des-.
pondingly at the huge mass that loomed up al
most as large, and as burning, as Vesuvius, my
heart died within mo. Ashamed to confess my
mistake, although 1 could almost us readily
have swallowed an equal quantity of soft soap,
1 struggled manfully on against the diabolical
compound. I endeavored to sap the mountainous
heap ut its base, and shutting my eyes and o
pening my mouth, to inhume us large masses as
I could without stopping to taste it. But my
stomach soon began, intelligibly enough, to in
(imate its intention to admit no more of this
nauseous stranger beneath ils roof, if not oven
of expelling that which had already gained un
welcome admittance.
The seriousness of the task 1 had undertaken,
and the resolution necessary to execute it, had
given an earnestness and rapidity to my exer
tions, which appetite would not have inspired;
when my plate, having some how got over the
edge of the table, upon my leaning forward, l ilt
ed up, and down slid the disgusting mass into my
lap. My Handkerchief, unable to bear so weigh
ty a load, bent under it in its turn; and a great
proportion of it was thus safely deposited in my
hat. The plate instantly righted itself, as 1
raised my person; and us I glanced rny eye
round the table, and saw that no one had noticed
my disaster, 1 inwardly congratulated myself
that the nauseous deception was so happily dis
posed of. Resolving not to be detected, 1 instant
ly rolled my handkerchief together with all its
remaining contents, and whipped it into rny
pocket.
The dinner table was at length deserted for
the drawing room, whore coffee and liqueurs
were served round. Meantime, I sought out
what 1 considered a safe hiding-place for my hat,
beneath a chair in the dining room, for I dared
not carry it longer in my hand; having first
thrown a morsel of paper into the crown, to hide
the cauliflower from view, should any one
chance, in seeking for his own hat, to look into
mine.
On my return tot’ne drawing-room, I chanced
to be again seated by the lady, by whom I had
sit at dinner. Our conversation was naturally
resumed; and wo wore in the midst of an ani
mated discussion, w hen a huge spider was seen
running, like a race horse, up her tirm.
‘Take it off—take it oil’!’ she ejaculated, in a
terrified tone.
I was always fra.id of spiders; so to avoid tou
ching him with my hand, I caught my handker
chief from my pocket, and clapped it utonce upon
the miscreant, who was already mounting over
AUGUSTA, GA. TUESDAY, JANUARY ««, 1833.
licrtumplo with rapid strides. Gracious Heaven!
I hud forgotten the cauliflower, which now plas
tered over her luce like an emollient poultice,
fairly killing the spider, and blinding an eye of
the lady: while little streamlets of soft butter,
glided gently down her beautiful neck and bo
som.
‘Mon Dieu! monDieu!’exclaimed the aston
ished fair.
‘Mon Dieu ! was echoed from every mouth.
‘ Have you cut your head ?’ inquired one.
‘ Non ! non ! —l’araignee—l’uraigneo.
Monsieur vient d’ccraser I’araigncj.’
‘ Quelle quantile d’entruilles!’ ejaculated an
astonished Frenchman, unconsciously to him
self.
Well might he bo astonished. The spray of
the execrable vegetable hud spattered her dress
from head to foot. For myself, the moment the
accident occurred, 1 had mechanically returned
my handkerchief to my pocket: but its contents
remained.
‘ What a monster it must have been,’ observ
ed a young lady, as she helped to relieve my
victim from her cruel situation. ‘ 1 declare 1
should think he had been living on cauliflower.’
At that moment, 1 felt some one touch me ;
and turning, saw my companion who had come
with mu.
‘ Look at your pantaloons,’ he whispered.
Already half dead with confusion at the dis
aster I had caused, I cast my eyes upon my once
white di ess, and saw at a glance the horrible ex
tent of my dilemma. 1 had been sitting uponthe
fated pocket, and had crushed out the liquid but
ter, and the soft paste like vegetable, Which had
daubed and dripped down them, till it seemed as
if 1 were actually dissolving in my pantaloons.
Darting from the spot, 1 sprang to the place
where 1 had left my hat ; but before 1 could
reach it, a sudden storm of wrath was heard at
the door.
‘ Sacr-r-r-o ! Sacr-r-re Sacr-i'.r-ro !’ the r ill
the last syllable being made to roll 1 i Ice a watch
man’s rattle, mingled with another epithet and
name, that an angry Frenchman never spares,
was hear-1 raising like a fierce tempest without
the door. Suddenly there was a pause—a gurgl
ing sound, as of one swallowing involuntarily;
and the storm of wrath again broke out with re
doubled fury. I seized my hut, and opened the
door, and the whole mattter was at once explain
ed. We had exchanged hats; and there ho
stood, the soft cauliflower gushing down his
cheeks, blinding his eyes, filling his mouth, hair,
mustachios, ears, and whiskers. Never shall 1
forget that spectacle. There he stood astride,
like the colossus, and stooping gently forward,
his eyes forcibly closed, his arms held drooping
out from his body, and dripping cauliflower and
butter at every pore.
1 staid no longer ; but, retaining his hut, I
rushed from the house; jumped into a fiacre, and
arrived safely at home, heartily resolving, that
to my last hour, I would never again deliver a
loiter of introduction.

ON presenting to the people this prospectus, the Edi.
tor deems it superfluous to suy one word wall re
gard to the utility ol newspapers. There arc, however,
particularly at this time, other duties that may not he
avoided so easily. In entering the political arena, we
may not conceal our sentiments ; tor we conceive it our
duty, to out friends and opponents, friendly to avow
them. Ihe Stale flights* Doctrines as contended tor
hy the best expounders ol the Constitution are those
we avow ; we hold that each state has reserved to her
self, all and every right, not surrendered up and enuni.
crated in the Constitution of the United Unites ; that
they may, nay should, and have reserved for the very
purpose, those rights, that whenever occasion requires,
they may he exercised ; but the states should be care.
Ini, in the exercise ol what are called and supposed to
ho reserved rights, those surrendered up are not viola
ted ; for they are no more the rights of the states than if
they had never been exercised hy them. The General
Government too, must move within its legitimate sphere,
carefully observing what powers it may exercise—what
are reserved to the respective sovereignties and what
have not been granted. While hero, we remark that
we are uncompromising Union men, and feel and consider
ourselves identified with all those that now rally under
the standard of the twenty.four states, whatever minor
distinctions may, heretofore, have separated us.
As respects the parties m Georgia, 100, we have a
word to say—We have acted with perfect satisfaction
to ourselves, with the Uepuhliean party. The spirit
ol that party will he carried into our labours ; but we
wish it understood that wo have not, and cannot
now consent, to advance our party views mid pros,
peets hy contending ngninsl those of our opponents ;
we offer to our opponents the free use of our columns,
If they are properly used.
It is useless to say any thing of the interesting court,
try in which the Intelligencer will be located—tilt;

FOR UN LARGING AND IMPROVING THE
SOUTHERN BANNER,
A Paper now published Weekly in Athens, Geo.
fTIMIE rapid increase of population, wealth and Intel
« ligencc of Western Gkoikua, haVe prompted the
Editors of the “ Southern Banner,” in order to keep
pace with the improvement of the timed-—to lay before
their friends and patrons, the following proposals:
They intend about the first of February next, to publish
the “Banner” on a large imperial sheet —not inferior in
me or style of execution, to any now published irf the
State—for the accomplishment of which purpose, they
have ordered from New. York an entire now set of mate,
rials.
The Editors deem it unnecessary at this late dify, to
ent'*r into a minute detail of their political creed—they
would deem it but a work of supererogation. Suffice it
to say, their best efforts will always he directed (by dis
seminating correct principles, religions, moral and
political) to the advancement of the interest, honor and
happiness of the people—particularly that portion of
them comprising the Western and North Western sec
tion of the State; ami to whom they mainly look for put.
ronngo and support.
The patronage of the Banner is now respectable, but
not sufiicrent to meet the increase of expenditure that
must necessarily occur, in effecting the improvements
contemplated. 'They are sanguine, however, in the
hope, that a liberal public will yield to their efforts, that
support and encouragement, upon which they alone
must rely, for the successful accomplishment of un‘un
dertaking so responsible.
TERMS.
The price of subscription will be the same as here
tofore—viz : $3,00 per annum in advance, or sl,l/0 if
payment is delayed until after the year expires.
As an inducement to our friends to exert themselves
for us, we offer to give a copy of the Banner for every
ten responsible minu s forwarded hy any one individual.
Letters, postpaid, addressed to the Editors, or to
A/.bon Chase, Publisher, will receive prompt attention.
