You will not find my Town so named on the amp, thuu^h it actually exists. I have, for prudential reasons, transposed the name to one which I think mure bctit- tint,' niy purpose and the present condi- tion <if its suiriiundiiigs. Faderington i.s a 0110-sided town â€" tliat is to say, has but one side, the other being occupied by one of our great lakes. The business centre is is oct.'iLSonal iu form, the Court House in the centre, surround- ed by a small park, a broad road with private strei'ts diven^in;^ therefrom. Just now an autumnal loveliness is scattered in rich prufusion, in the varie^rated fol- iage i>f the trees, which adorn the larger portion >'i its streets. On the lakeside, from the path, is ob- tained a grand stretch of water scenery â€" the pale blue of the water nierjiing into the deeper shadings of the distant horizon in a uiagiiiliceut sweep into the unpene- trable beyoi'd ! Failerington h.as been one of the most reputable summer resorts, iu the time when visitors took vacations ^uitu natur. ally : when rest, with moderate exercise â€" void of intense excitement â€" was con- sidered its chief recjuisite. There is a fair iiropurtion of moderately substantial residents, whose chief occupation appears to be divided eipmlly in t.iking all po.ssiblo .comfort from tlieir jjresent surrnundiutis and in juiliciou.sly eking out their means with due regard to their longevity. As a matter of fact Faderington has long been noted as the head([uarters of a large var- iety of extremely sensitive and amiable â€" old maids. I'ardin theabrui)tness of the confession. Could I but coin a word which would more tenderly give express- ion to the actual fact, I would gladly avail myself of itâ€" for least of all have I the slightest intention of casting .1 slur on so hutiorablo a Ixuly, However, since the truth is now made public, I am sure tliat all gentlemen of marriageable proclivities will at once avail themselves of my uam- ett rcconiniendation, and seek from the midst of so charming a selection, a part, nor for their joys and a true sympathizer in their sorrows. There were several interesting features iu this excellent boily. a few "f which were brought prominently under my uu- tico oa I sat at dinner engaged â€" partlf iu the regulation table duties, and partly in taking stock of my surroundings. Mrs. Sniileaby, an attractive elderly liuiy, snt at the head of the table ; at her left side the iidonible Miss Jiggilty, the boss mill incr, whoso slender arms encased in a skin-tight jersey are the wonder of the town. Now, that a party should be so constructed may Jiossibly be accounted for by one of the following reasons : Ist â€" Either by early nnsformation or (2nd) an acquired condition, the result of intense activity. From my own opinion I believe, in this case, it is somewhat of a combination of â€" bi>th ! Hut to gee the way tlmsearms moved in rmiching for table reiiuisitcs, w.rs little short i.f the miraculous. The curves, the waves, the twisting, the an- gles, circles and i;raceful movements were wonderful â€"not only in their rapidity but in their contiiiuosity also. 1 can readily understand, that a person for a long series of years engaged in putting the tinishing touches to feminine head-gear, this pecu- liar movement becomes a second nature, and as a remedial measure would respect- fully suggest a change in occupatnju, such as would involve household duties ; con- centrated in one word- marriage ! There were two other ladies on the right side- Miss Noddington aiul Miss Vielby â€" the former so named from the constant nodding of the innnensity of plumes which adorned the front part of her hat ; and the latter from the thick veil which covered half her face, shading from vulgar gaze her somewhat atpiiline nose, her graceful features and other po.s- .sibilities of more or less importance. Mrs. Smile.aby, however, managed to keep uji a motherly interest at their table, ami, save with a few occasional glances in our direction, their attention was chielly con- fined to the duty of the hour. The walks around Faderington aro by no means to bo dcspi.sed. A graceful sward covers part of the roadside in many parts of the town, which foriUH an agree- able change from the knotty sidewalks. As the shades of evening were approach- ing a quiet ramble was exceedingly ac- ceptable. Though October, the mildness of the eveiung was appreciated by the re- sidents, who sat at their windows various- ly engaged in conversation or lu probable meditation of their suggestivu (jHViroii- muiit, ao ^l^«>r ^.a?t» inclined. The strains of music from an open window drew my attention. I leaned against a maple, whose f<diage the breeze was slightly moving, and gave myself to a reverie. A graceful figure sat at the piano in the welldighted and elegantly furnished room. A white woid wrap was thrown loosely over her shoulders, while her fingers ran over the key board in a dreamy fashion. Her eyes seemed to bo scanning some distant object, or possibly her mind was faraway. The unconscious melody merged into the minor key, which in its (ilaiiitive strains appeared to surge in waves of harmony as if her tinkers were the exponents of the soul's niusinsis. Suddenly the tune changed, then in a clear, rich voice, came the words â€" "'Twas the Last R<iso of Summer left, lilouniing Alone." As the song proceeded, lier voice gathered an inspiration of bi-auty. Tlio song was exceedingly a|ipropriate, tor the fading flower, the falling leaf, were all silent yet potent teachers of the truth. As the song ended, I felt a mournful thankfulness that even Faderington had taught me a practical lesson, .is I da.shed a tear from my eye and quietly returned to my hotel. D. S. NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

One d,ay when he had eaten a large one he came to mamm.i and wanted more. "How many are there in the dish ''. asked mauinui. He counted thcin. "Just throe," he .said. "Very well," was the reply, "there is one for papa and one for niauima and one for you. You can have one. He ate it and wanted another. "How many aro loft / " .said mamma. "Just two, oue for papa and one for me." "But where is mine ?" said the aston- ished mother. "Oil," he replied 'piicUl}-, "I've eaten it. " Lcs.soii For Yoiiii:; WrIU'rs.
