Love Laughs at Gold as well as Lock-
smiths.

There was an elopement from this city this
morning, under rather curious circumstances.
A young girl, who had for years been engaged
to a young mechanic of excellent character from
Vermont, residing here, found very serious OBJ
stace to her marriage with him in the opposition
of her parents. Th9y forbade the bans, and in
sisted upon their daughters immediate marriage
with another-an acquaintance recently return
ed from California, with gold enough to satisfy
half dozen toiing mechanics. She determin-
ed, however, to marry her old beau-but how,
till this event, keep on terms with the new one,
and at the same time escape parental vigilance
She pretended TO be ready to submit to the wish
es of her parents, and allowed their favorite to
visit her in the way of courtship, and made ar
arrangements to marry him In the meantime
she had the most perfect understanding with her
true betrothed, and agreed to marry him at all
events the first favorable opportunity After Civ
ing themselves up to despair day after day, she'd
ding tears and making protestatons of eternal
fidelity-that favorable moment arrived lastnight
The girl, telling her mother she was going out
moment to dress maker, to see abou, her
wedding dress, hunted up her Vermont lover,
went to justice with him aud they were marri-
ed The matter was kept entirely secret--the
new married pair parted-and the girl went home
to receive, as usual, a courting visit from her
California aspirant. After passing portion of
the evening with her. he retired, congratulating
himself upon the prospect of very shortly taking
her as his bride to California He had no soon
er left her, than she began to make arrangements,
which the reader will understand. Whether
she slept at all during the night is no ones cen
Germ, but at early daybreak she stole out Of the
house without the knowledge of any one in it,
joined her young husband, and started north with
him, to pass the honey moon among the hills of
Vermont. The whole affair was managed with
admirable adroitness, and our word for it, the he
rome will make jewel Of wife.-LoDeH Cou-
rier.

A YOUNG SINBAD.-The Norwich Conn
Courier thus narrates the narrow escape of a
boy ID or Is years of age, named LOOMS, from
drowning in the Sound few days SINCE The
lad wished to visit New York. and for this pur-
pose he secreted himself on board the steamer
Knickerbocker, on Monday night-reached New
York safely, and set out to come home by the
same boat on Tuesday evening. About mid
night when the steamer was off Saybrook, the
young scape-grace fell overheard in some way
lin just aohat way he himself seems unable to
explain. He cried for help, but nobody heard
him, and the boat went on her way. He says his
first impulse was, after finding himself left to his
fate, to strike out for Connecticut shore; but
looking in the direction of New York, he saw, or
thought he saw, a vessel of some sort in the stea-
mer's wake, and he concluded TO 'slie to- while,
till he should find what it was, and whether it
was likely to come within his reach The re-.
suit was that she came steadily on, nearer and
nearer, till she came within hailing distance
He ''spoke" the craft which proved to be fish
ing-smack, and was soon after picked up by her
and taken into New London.

Ascent Of MONT Rslan c.

The following is detailed account, from Ga
hg7aa7lS Messenger, of the recent ascent of
Mont Blanc: 1--WE have received the following
from a correspondent at Chamounix dated the
30th ult.: Great excitement was caused in the
town of ChamouniX on the morning of Wednes-
day, the 2Sth, in consequence of the departure of
Mr.. Gretton, late 9th Fuseers, and Mr.. Rich
ards, of the county of Wexford, Ireland with a
party of the brave mountaineers of Chamounix,
for the purpose of ascending to the summit OF
Mont Blanc. Crowds assembled to witness their
start, as the Hazardous nature of the adventure
was we'll known, the guides having left their
watches and little valuables behind and the two
gentlemen made their wills and prepared for the
worst. Great anxiety was expressed on many
face as the little band, headed by our two coun-
trymen, disappeared in the forest at the foot Of
the mountain. The ascent is always accompa-
MED with great peril, as steps have to be cut up
the sloping banks of ice, and one of the largest
GLACIERS has to be passed, where one false step
entails certain death. As the unfortunate man
falls into a crevice of almost unknown depth,
from which no human hand could extricate him.
A night has to be passed on the cold rock, and
spots have to be passed where no word can be
spoken lest thousands of tons of snow should be
set in motion, and hurl the party into eternity, as
was tine case some years back, when similar
attempt was made.
AT o'clock the report of cannon at Chamou-
nix announced that our adventurous countrymen
had gained the Grand Molets, the rock on which
they were to take up their quarters for the night
The next day all was excitement; nothing else
was thought of in the town. The Flegere and
Brevan were crowded with anxious observers.
About IL o'clock, the fog clearing away from
the summit of the Father of the Alps, the little
band were seen to be slowly approaching the
top, and, a few minutes after, the report of can
non at Chamounix announced the undertaking
successful. The clouds, however, soon obscu-
red them from our view, and we saw nothing
more of them until about half past P. NJ,
when, preceded by the best music Chaumounx
afforded, and carried on the backs of some enthu-
siastc Frenchmen, they were received at the
Hotel de Londres with loud cheers, firing of can
non, and expressions of delight at their safe re-
turn. The guides give great praise to both gen
tlemen for the courage and GOODNESS they dis
! played"

To show the good results arising from the a.

the following Circular:

Interest and Land Limitation.

"LltereSt IS the REGARD Of economy.
''Has not a man right 10 all the land he can
Juy!"
Without positively denying the above apo
thegm, or giving direct answer to the query,
we submit the following facts;
l. 1t is fact, that at the present rates of in
terest one hundred individuals could, during
their lifetime. get into their hands the entire mo-
nicd wealth of this nation.
q 1t is fact, that without Land Limitation,
these hundred men could buy up every acre of
the Public Land in the United States.
8. 1t is fact, that without Homestead Ex-
emption, they could also become the owners OF
every foot of land on the American Continent.
A. 1t is fact, that these hundred persons
could own the labor Of the entire population of
the u. States.
5. is fact, that they could obtain this inn
mense wealth without performing one solitary
days labor.
6. It's fact, that under our present laws
these hundred men could deprive every man, wo-
man, and child of their life, liberty, and happi-
ness-they could exercise over them an absolute
tyranny more terrible in its effects than any Eas-
tern despotsm-and they could reduce them to
a state Of vassalage from which neither they nor
their posterity could ever recover.--Amsricd's

OBEDIENCE TO PARENTs.-This very thing
was of great value to the ancients, and they did
use to tell this fable to their children, to teach
them to obey their parents. "An old lion, a.
mongst other precepts that he gave his son, char
ged him that he should never fight with man,
because if he was not too strong, he would al
least be too crafty The young lion heard him,
but regarded him not; therefore as soon as ever
he was full grown, hastens abroad to seek man
to be his enemy. He came into field and saw
yoke of oxen standing ready furnished to Plow,
and asking them if they were men, they said no,
but that man had put these yokes upon them.
He left them and went aside, and espying horse
bridled, tied to a tree, asked him if he were a
man. He answered no, but man had bridled
him and would by and by come and ride him, for
man was his master At last he finds man
cleaving wood and asked him, whether he were
man, and finding him to be so, told him ne
must prepare to fight with him. The man told
him with all heart! but first desired him to help
to draw that wedge out of that tree, and then he
would, The young lion thrust in his paws and
little opens the tree till the wedge falls out and
then the tree closed upon his feet by It's return
ing violence The man seeing the lion fasten-
1 ed, and the lion seeing himself entrapped, the
man cried out to his neighbors to come to his
4 help; and the lion to escape his danger tore his
| feet from the tree, and lett his nails and blood
behind him and returning with shame and smart
/ to his old father, said to him, My father, if
had obeyed thy advice, had not lost my nails. 2

RA1N.-There is one remarkable fact connec-
ted with the fall of rain which has never yet re-
ceived satisfactory explanation. Over any CIV
en- spot more rain falls at the surface OF the earth
than above it. Heberdon made some experi-
nents 20 ascertain this fact, in the following man
ner: He fixed rain-guage on the square part
Of the Westminster Abbey, away from the wes-
tern towers, which might obstruct the clouds,
another on the roof neighborng house, and a
third on the ground, in the garden ofthe same
The number of inches of rain caught on the Abb
hey roof was II, on the house-top Is, and in the
garden %. The illustrious French astronomer,
Arago, has for many years noticed the fall of rain,
at different heights, at the Observatory at Paris,
and his results, with which hundreds of others a.
gree, are like those of Heberdon. 1t is well
knownthat the quantity of rain which falls at the
foot of mountain is considerably larger than that
deposited on its summit. Many explanations
have been offered of this curious fact, but none
to which the scientific have:given sanction.
