| ROMANTIC ADvENTURE.-A few days since the
family of merchant, resident in one of the great
commercial towns Of the north was thrown into a
state of great confusion by the sudden disappear
ance of the youngest daughter-It appeared
that the young lady had, on the morning OF
| the I'd instant, left home at an early hour, in
tending to visit some friends who resided on the
side of the river opposite to that on which
the town stands. Fastening towards the pier to
take passage on board of one of the steamers
which constantly ply to and fro, she was delayed
OH her way, the lock gates Of the dock Corning
the bridge) having been opened TO afford egress to
an American vessel outward bound. The ship be-
ing at length towed into the basn the gates were
closed and the crowd pressed forward to cross the
bridge. A rope which had been attached to the
side of the vessel, and likewise fastened to post
on the pier head, being at this moment suddenly
jerked, came with such violence against the ancles
of many of the crowd as to cause theirinstant sub
mersion; the lady being on the edge of the pier
was unfortunately precipitated into the water. A
rush was made to the spot from whence she had
falen rope was thrown out, but a gentleman,
with great presence of mind, unmindful Of the
fearful leap, "accoutred as he was, plunged in"
and managed to keep the lady above water till the
arrival of boat. Landed at the pier stairs a
coach was procured, and in a short time the gem
tleman sci down his dripping charge at the door
Of her fathers domicil. In the evening he called
to inquire after her health the next day repeated
his visit, and procured private interview, the pa
rents being out. The following morning came,
but no lady appeared at the breakfast table-thc
bird had flown, and as might be expected, father
and mother were inconsolable Things remained
in this state till the evening of the 9th, when the
arrival Of letter informed the family that the lady
was quite safe, she having, in token of gratitude,
surrendered her hand and fortune to her deliverer.
The worthy merchant, dspleased at the step, was
satisfied to find that his daughters husband was
no needy adventurer, but the possessor of toler-
able income. This novel and speedy mode of pro-
curing partner for life has, 1t is reported, caused
great sensation among spinsters Of the town,
and many who have long languished in vain have
fully determined, when warm weather may come,
to try the efficacy of bath, but have also taken
the precaution to order cork jackets to be made,
the use of which might prevent fearful conse-
quences, should no knight deliverer appear.
