dLommmncmimts. Joltings from the Fishing Party. Mr. Editor: —lt being your business to keep the masses posted in regard to erery thing that is new, rich and racy, we hare con cluded to transmit to you a few notes on the Fishing Party, alias Courting Frolic, which iinet at Anderson's Mill, on Monday last.— Now, Mr. Editor, we are not going to con demn fishing frolics—not at all—we only wish to let the public know what is done at such parties, that we may hare a larger crowd in attendance in the future. Now, for making the object of these assemblies bare, fishing is the main intention, but the kind of hooks and bait used are kept in the dark, until arririug at the proposed place for angling. I’ll now enter into minuteness, for the benefit of the many bashful youug men of this neighbor hood, that they may not be “ taken in “ on going to one of the above named parties. On arriving at the appointed place, the boy* step up to the girls with a bland smile (drums.- pn grin) and politely—if you call bowing to the ground anything—ask them to have a book, and while passing a few words, the hooks are sure to get tangled in the tresses of the girls, and then tli >rMre a few si “glances and a giggle. The next thing is, “will you fish me, Miss Annie ?’’—“ will you with me, Miss Fannie ?” and so on, till the whole list of fes, as Rosies, Emmies, Mollies Nannies, Ba bies, Mnriannies, is exhausted. Now there is a rush for the water, but ere ‘tis reached, Some romantic spot is spied, where some miniature Niagara, hushes the sounds of love from the listening car, aud down the crowd sits in groups of two. •• Oh, isn't that little rushing of the waters romantic, Miss Sallie.” “‘Love ly, more than grand; such a fit place to talk of love.” “Why, Cousin, aint you ashamed of •your pretty self, I never thought y ou would be guilty cf making love to me, I am so surpris ed ! Ch, just look at Kate and Dr.” “Now, Miss Sallie, ytiu are straying from the all. important subject. •’ What did you say, Cousiu ? ’ “Ahem, I say I said I had a question to ask you.” “ Oh, let us go dp yon der where the crowd is playing whist."’ “You girls are riddles, certain, 1 don't know how to interpret your conduct.” There is an “awful pause,” ar.d Cousiu S. “is out ” for the re mainder of the day, and by this time all the Com ins and “ies” are in the same cata logue. “The “goodies ” arc now spread—iho eat ing takes place, and the dull crowd sits down to talk of fatnilliars. The evening wears heavily away—crowd disperres and the fish ing ends. Mr. E liter, if you have “ot been entertain cd, 1 hope you have been instructed, so when you go to a fishing, you will know C.X4V_t.J uu.v i Vi begin and how to end. The above, is a de scription of what a Fishing Parly “ used to was,” and not totally unlike this, was our .party. qh_F. istar lUovevcg, thus tr-ln “cidu on material facts, for on Monday wc dis pensed with hooks a id employed words tu fish for every hod} s’ business, and the first place that was convent lit to talk -ccretiy was se cured auJihe courting commenced ciciciuasiy. I understand there was no kicking, and that several weddings will ensue. So you sec, after -all. fishing parties arc a benefit, and let yon : and I hope the boys will have another soon April Bth. A.vir. Mr. Editor. Having .-ecii sonin jottings from the Fishing Party of last Monday, ii n anuscript for:n, directed to you for pubiica tion and signed by one Amy, and as the re ■marks made by this lady, if not derogating Ashing parties altogether, are broad msinua 'tious that each assemblies ard not nine!: ••ptlnipki. s,” and well calculated to (Inter the ‘•old folks’* fmm letting their so sand daugh ters go to such places; I have concluded to nay a few words by way of defense, being one who thinks these meetings the most pleasant and instructive of any tiling of the kind that can be gotten up, especially for voung pc. , ’ But only a penny for my opion, and I'll come in with my vindication after awhile. But be fore Igo farther, I would like to know some thing about this Amy, and answer some of her objections, or, as some would call them, incon sistencies. Who is Amy ? I amy pretty fcei tain she wa3 at the fishing, which called fovih her muse ; and furthermore, 1 guess, *twas the first party of the kiud she ever attended, and I am convinced she did not receive much at tention from the masculines. Now, tc prove that this Amiable was never at a fishing be fore, we have only to look to the tone of her remarks. Her whole discourse is directed as advice to the Editor, to steer him clear of ” scrapes ” just like she experienced. Won *der if she knew the Editor was a married man? 1 should like to answer A.'s points, if I could see them, but the ssarch is like looking for a jtfy on the town clock, three miles from town, hard to locate. I don't know for certain what she was “ hitting at.” but I believe she wished to disparage fishings by calling them “ Court, mg Frolics.” Well, what of that ? The girls and boys will court, (if they are not like Amy, too fretful,) and what better place could they choose than those “ romantic spots ” near the little “Niagaras” so graphically described by our friend ? Look here, A?ny, do you think to drive the “old folks” from sending their daughters to these frolics, by catling them “Courtiog Frolics ?” If you do, you are sad ly mistaken. The “old folks” like for their girls to be. courted ; and if you desire to keep the girls away from fishings, your essay has done more harm than good. Courting- -it is the very thing for the old folks, they talk about it after they retire at night. Didn't you never hear your mother say when you Were passing through h r bed room, that such a c* ip would be ag< od chance for At/i> 1 1 Lupc she didn't mean ‘ this child.” Ah. lad} • didn't you know the p .ople would say you had •o xcul, if love's voice could no* call forth !t deepest emotions, amid each scenery as you describe. Don’t you think you missed you. calling when you turned authoress ? Go bow down at Cupid's throne and implore forgivness for speakiug so slightly of his iufiucncc aud worshipers. Well, I guess Amy is “ kinder sswed,” so I’ll proceed to speak of the bene fits of these parties on the creeks, as I promis ed in tiio beginning. The first reason I offer for them is, they are the most innocent kind of parties. There is no darkness to hide deeds of evil, and consequently no “ jugce.ies ” aside, &c. Again, the human system needs recreation in the open air, aud what place can be more charming for a stroll, than along the banks of a creek, meandering through grassy valleys and shady groves. Aud if the boys find girls will court; is it it not best fur them to be where the scenes around would call forth pure thoughts ? Whose heart docs not heave with a lively gratitude to God, for his good neeas, wheu he is standing beside the purling brook, with one of earth's angels hanging on his arm ? As he looks about him he secs many things to make his heart pure ; perchance lie sees some flower perched on a tall stem above another of more delicate hue and more fragile texture, and compares his position, as ho glances down at the fair one beside him aud says tbo flowers teach ine a lesson, the latter one, though rot njjtogftttt; seems to prof jet the one which appears weaker, aud he involun tarily exclaims, “ Oh, had I some fair one to shelter from the storms ot troubles which be set mankind through life, how well I could perform the work.” Old Nature is all around with open portals to her ctor house, bidding each young heart to enter and cull the beau ties as they bloom. Who could resist the temptation of going to a fishing frolic ? How much better is it, than to go to the bail, iu a close room, where there is nothing L- a fanci ful excitement, which lasts blit a moment 1 Hear, all ye people, I litii an advocate of out door frolics; and I “ bite off ” with high hopes and full expectations of being at a fishing frolic again soon. And I’ll wager with Amy, a sett of shining hopes (hoops) that there will bo more persons at the next Fishing than was e-’er at one before in this neighborhood. April ]oth.

Attempted Petticoat Swixnr.e .—• At Battle Creek, New York, the other evening, two gentlemen end a one of the real skirt expanders—got aboard the ears for Chi cago One gentleman and his wife had through tickets, while the other paid his fs.eon'yto lioi fir :.,tion. From certain manifestations, iieo. fa o iWudles, the conductor, who is keen on scent, concluded it was the intention of the trio to dead head one of the tarty through. On arriving at Augusta, the- gentleman did not get off, and on search bein’- made, lie was found secreted in the ladies’ saloon. He wps brought forth, and directed to leave the train at the next station, hut on arriving there he was not to he found. After a long and diligent search, in which everybody had become Inter ested, it was concluded 1m had leaped olf the tl ain while in motion. Speculation was then rite as to his fate, wlmn a gentleman sitting near the lady of big dimensions, hinted that tbuia might there “a talc unfold.”— On producing a light, four fact were seen pro truding from her petticoats, which it was un reasonable to suppose belonged to one person, and the lady was requested to rise, which she did after some hesitation, revealing the lost passengen A Bigamous Scouxdi...l. —We have receiv ed from a gentleman in Choctaw county, Ala., for publication, a somewhat lengthy account of one of the most villainous cases of bigamy one in which a respectable and virtuous young lady was made the victim of a lustful scourf dfel—that wo. have ever heard or read of. A man by the name of James Chance {bad chance would be a better name for him) came into the the neighborhood from which our corres pondent writes, last summer, representing lilmSelf as having fled from Baker county, Ga, to avoid prefceedtion for a fight whcli he had in that State- He represented himself as an unmarried man, and figured extensively among the ladies, paying his addresses to sev , oral, and finally, on the 2d of February last, married a daughter of a respectable citizen of Choctaw county. Some circumstance led the father to suppose that all was not rght, and he wrote secretly to the Sheriffof L’akcr coun ty, though doubtless, with faint hopes that Chance had given correctly the place from which he hailed. It turned out, however, that he had been fool enough to do, and Mr. S received replies to his letter both from the Sheriff and Chance's father, which confirmed his worst suspicions. The disc'osurses in these letters showed Chance to be a most unmitiga-1 ted scoundrel. He had a wife and two eliil-1 dren living Georgia, and his father, 4 man of j wealth, had always been disposed to treat him ! with paternal kindness and provide him ample means for his support and family. All this, however, had not been sufficient to restrain bis mean propensities, and several, years ago he had left his wife and taken up with a loose wo man with whom he lived with some twelve months. His wife was afterwards persuaded to live with him again, until be left Georgia for Alabama, where he committed his crown ing act of meanness and villany, as we have related. Chance got wind of what was going on, and left the neighborhood of his exploit be fore the letters of Georgia wore received, un dor tfc-v pretence of going back to that State to get testimony to clear up the suspicion which had been awakened against him. W’e have been requested to make this statement, in the hope that it may put the public on the ‘.fate!, for turn and lead to his arrest,— Pautd • tag (Milt,) Clarion o— —— The frost in'tbis county on Wc lue ’7 night was very light.
