seem, it is the history OF other hearts as
sensitive and delicate as his own. Soon after
his ordination, he preached once on every Sab
bath for clergyman in small village not
twenty miles from London. Among his audi
tors from Sunday to Sunday, he observed a
young lady, who always occupied certain seat.

A ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.-The Welchmf
WASHINGTON, October I, 1850.

A ROMANCE IN REAL LlFE.--The Welchman
records the following, as having recently &C.
CURED in the neighbolhood OF Cardigan:
'Twenty-hree years ago young man named
David Evans, having paid his addresses TO a
maiden in The vicinity Of his native town, at the
mouth OF The tiny, was dispatched TO attend to
his duty as a navigator fton the raging MAN,
He started from Cardiff accordingly, in vessel
,amed the Berkeley, which, an about a week
after departure was wrecked, and all on board
were plunged intoa watery grave For no less
than twenty three years il was supposed that
David Evans had persisted with his comrades,
but he last week landed at Sheeruess from Aus.
tralia, where he had been quietly but rapidly,
accommodating cash in the long interval thai had
elapsed since his exodus from the country and
it was then ascertained that in consequence of
a quarrel with the captain of the Berkeley, he
had left that vessel few days previous to the
fatal disaster which had consigned her asd her
gallant crew to the deep. On Evans arrival at
Cardigan, his first enquiry was for his early love,
and he learned that, fully believing in his de-
mise, she had become the wife ola favori:e sui,or
who had taeitly departed this life and left her
free to accept The offer which her former faithful
iaamorato now promptly made her, and which
we need scarcely say, was at one accepted, and
the marital rites in two short days were cele.
brated.
