so violent that twenty-five vessels were driven
ON shore. The gale was Of short duration and
the damage was not very great, except TO the

Guile a DHemma-We learn from the
Hartford Courier, that a young man in Toll
land Co. Connecticut, is desperately in love
with young woman-and she is as des-
peratelv in love with him This is no I'M
common posture of affairs, but there are cir
cumstances about the case rather "out Of the
ordinary" The young woman was some
time ago "bound out" by the town authorities
TO the brother Of her lover. and there are
vet two whole long years which the indenl
ure has 10 run. The master in law is de-
tcrmined TO have his bond-the husband
that is to be is clamorous for his wife. The
only compromise offered by the holder of the
indentures is that the lover should pay him
a hundred dollars for the unexpired term OF
service. The girl is nmiable, pretty, and
accomplished and the editor Of the Courier
considers her a good bargain at hundred
dollars, even in these hard times. Further
more, the gallant editor offers 10 raise the
money if The husband will give him bond
and mortgage on the property as security
for payment If there is not hundred dol
