MOST ROMANTIC AFFAIRI
Two Elopements and a wedding.

About year since, young man came TO this
city from Belchertown IN this State, and entered
dry goods store IN Washington street as a sales
man. HIS steady habits and attention TO busi-
ness won him the regard Of his employer, whiIo
his respectful courtesy and manly beauty secured
The good favor Of the lady customers Of the store.
Among the iatter was very beautiful young
daughter Of one Of our most respectable citizens.
sort OF teegraphic intercourse was established
between the two, and it was not long before il
was followed by regular introduction and ini-
macy. We should have i'd that Mr.. B had
inherited small property from his deceased pa
rents, and this may have had come weight with
tho father and mother Of The young lady, by whom
The young man was soon regarded as their future
son-u-law. So matters being arranged all went

peared upon the carpet a dashiDg New York tni-
lor, who proposed to the father of the affinanced
girl, to remove TO New York, and enter into bu.
s,ness with him on grand scale in Ca,ham street.
From the moment of this proposal the prospects
of young B chapged-the parents Of the
young lady looked cold upon him, and the poor

A LOCKER ON.
FORGERIES ON BANKS.

The New York Herald gives the following as the
mods operandi by which forgercs perpetrsted on
the banks of that city " Two three rogues hav-

of money, condense their funds one Of the party

banks have therefore recently refused all deposites

THE POSTMASTER GENERAL.

We understand from the Baltimore papers that J.
Mclean Gardner who inflicted the wound on the
Hon. c. A. Wicklitie, on Tuesday, board the
steamer Georgia. having, as is generally believed, beer
aborirg under mental arrangement previous to, and
at the time he committed the act was, on Thursday
afternoon, at O'clock brought before speci,l
sion of Baltimore City Court, under writ of habeas
corpus issued by his honor Judge Brce, for the pur
pose OF testing the fact. A jury was empanneled
and George r. Richardson, Esq appeared for the
State of Maryland and David Hoffman, Esq, VIM.
H. Norris, Esq. and COL Graham for the traverser.
ID. Hoffman, Esq opened the before the jury,
and expressed himself satisfied that the said affair
which caused the arrest of young Gardner had been
perp, trated while in deranged unsettled state Of
mind.
Mr. Turner, a clerk in the General Land Office, at
Washington the of examination, stated that
he was on board the boat which conveyed Gardner
from Washington down the river, and had reason to
believe that his mind materially affected.
When the examination of this witness had closed,
gentleman who appeared as the friend of Mr.. Wick
life rose and stated that, in consequence of the de-
sire Of the physician that Mr. w. should not leave his
apartments to-day, it would confer great obligation
if his testimony could be taken at the hotel The
Court at once acquiesced in the request and accord
lngy an adjournment took place TO Barnum's hotel,
where Mr. Wckliffe gave the most positive assurance
as to Gardeners insanity spoke of his intimacy with
him and his family and could attach no i'll design
Mrs Gardner was conducted into the apartment
and being sworn, testified with much disnctness,
though frequently affected to tears and her voice was
occasionally broken by agitation. She spoke of his
past arrangement of mind from intense application TO
study, and said that recently serious apprehen-
sons were entertained as TO his declining health.
With the close of this testimony the inquiry was
discontinued, and the court adjourned until this
morning, at 10 o'clock, in the city court.
The appearance Of Gardrer, who occupied seat
in the court room, by the side Of his counsel, was
quite calm, and his manner very easy and self-pos-
sessed there is in his eye wild unusual expression,
which appears, however, to be rather natural de-
feet, than the result Of unsettled and diseased
mind.
The daily Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1841-1845, 1843-08-04

The assault upon the Hon. Charles A. Wick
life, Postmaster General, which came so near
being attended with unfortunate results, has
produced throughout this community feeling oil
sympathy and regret. That, owing TO the at
tempt of mailman, (ior he can be looked upon
in no other light this nation should have been
deprived Of one OF its brightest ornaments, a
family bereft Of one of The kindest parents and
fathers, and the Department Of the Govern
ment over which he presdes OF one Of The most
efficient officers ever called 10 rule over IL, is a
matter calculated to call forth the deepest con
CEN. We are pleased 10 find that every ndi-
vidual in this city has had but one feeling on
the subject, and that however men may differ
in their political opinions, YET their feelings have
been excited with the most friendly emotions to-
wards the distinguished gentleman whom acct
dent, for few days. has detained from his Off
cal duties. Never was there man towards
whom kinder relations existed than towards
Mr. Wickifie. He possesses the respect and
esteem of all who know him, and in every stu
alton which, in the course OF an eyentful life, he
has been called upon to fill, he has discharged
its duties with an eye single TO the public good,
and with entire satisfaction 10 all concerned.
We sincerely trust that, in day or two, he will
be able TO resume his station at The head of that
Department which he adorns with his talents,
and the duties Of which he discharges in so able
and impartial a manner.
