A Love Affair.

The Liberty Herald, printed at Liberty,
Union county, Ind, tells the following:
We have been placed in possession of
some most melancholy facts in relation to
a young man and young lady, the former
a resident of Preble county, Ohio, and the
latter resident of Oxford. II appears that
the young gentleman is student at West
Point Military Academy, and the lady was
his betrothed. Being absent from her a
long while, he returned home some two
weeks since, and foun1 her married and in
her second confinement. Although a cor
respondence had been regularly kept up
between them. she had concealed the fact
of her marriage, and Of course he was star
tied to find how matters stood on his return.
The young man wisely determined to let
affairs pass off quietly, and seek friends
and fortune in another place.
In view of this determination he conclu-
ded not to see the lady, but unwise coun-
sells of friends prevailed with him, and he
went to the house where she resided. L.
While in a room adjoining that of the lady
she heard and recognized his voice, and ex-
pressed desire for an interview with him.
He Immediately repaired to the room,
where most affecting scene occurred
She asked and obtained his pardon; the
interviey closed and they separated. But
what she had passed through was beyond
her powers of endurance, and that night
her spirit passed from earth.
The young man was not informed of her
death until morning, when he attempted
self.destruction by jumping into mill
race not far from where he resided. He
would have succeeded in drowning him
self but for the accidental appearance ofa
gentleman vending his way along the race
to the mill. Immediately after he was
taken from the water and resuscitated, his
friends sent him to Cincinnati, where he
would be away from the scenes which would
bring to his memory the unhappy circunn-
stances which had overtakcn him at home.

The CoNTRAsT.-A company of boys
were playing ball upon the Common,
while a would-be lady, clad in beautiful
plaid silk, was successfully performing the
office. of street-sweeper. Z tiny little fol-
low, in full pursuit of his ball, making o
misstep inadvertently stumbled upon the
trailing skirt. Frightened at the sound of
ripping stitches, he sprang to his feet and
with burning cheek began to say that
he was very sorry. But the halfuttered
apology was arrested by the angry exela-
nation. "You little scamp, what did you
do that for! Now, just SEQ my dress, :
Amt you ashamed of yourselfF
'.No," replied the boy. 81 aint ashamed; /;
Pam glad of it," tf s.a
"You are naughty boyw aDo You
know where wicked boys go when they
die?"
"Yes, and wicket ladies too,' was the
careless reply, as the boy ran off to his
play. Meeting an older boy, who had
witnessed the whole scene, he was asked
if he WAS really glad he had torn the Ia
dy's dress.
"No' he replied, 81 was really sorry at
first, but l wouldn't tell her so, after she
famed up. in that way. 1 tell you, Bill,
| feel as though I'd like to do it again, just
to see her eyes snap.
Alas! the angry spirit had done its
work, and who can calculate the result
Twas but the intercourse of a moment
yet upon that moments influence may
hang the destiny ofan immortal soul.

HSS- Tho claim of TT w Tho,nnson fn

H The claim of T. w. Thompson fol
forty thousand dollars for services render
ed the Indians, was disallowed by Mr..
Guthrie. The new Secretary of the Trea-
sury, Mr.. Cobb, has allowed the claim.-
Although he has been in office only about
month, says the Louisville Journal, and,
during that time, has necessarily. as a new
incumbent, had very many matters deman-
ding his attention, he promptly, and of
course with little or no opportunity for ex-
animation, allows $4,000 claim, which
Secretary Guthrie, with all possible oppor
tunities for scutiny through a series of
wears, rejected over and over again. Well
either Mr.. Guthrie is exceedingly censura-
bic for having disallowed the claim, or Mr..
Cobb is exceedingly censurablo for having
allowed it. How will the Democracy de-
cice between them?
The transaction exhibits something dis
creditable to somebody.

The ILLINOIS EGYPTIANs-A Sucker
Journal thus humorously describes southern
Illinois: ~
Egyptians are an entirely different race
from any other known people on the globe.
Being quite oblivious TO their obligations
as responsible agents before high heaven,
they think nothing of perjuring their souls
for two cents worth of gingerbread. AT
an election they do not swear their Judges,
as is customary in christian countries, and
if they did the oath would not be binding,
for they would use pine shingle for a
Bible. As it is rare to find man who
can write: they have no clerks so that when
election day comes they form circle around
depositing their ballots one after another
in quick succession, and repeating until s
o'clock next morning, when if they have
votes enough to over balance any northern
majority which may be given, they cease; !;
otherwise they keep on voting until the
requisite number is obtained. .a
The inhabitants of Egypt are in some
respects similar to other people-that is
they have legs, arms, noses, teeth, and toe
nails, but no brains. They live, for the
most part, on dead cattle, swine and wild
poultry-occasionally varying the bill of
fare with stewed niger and fricased Injun.
Their dress is something different from
what we commonly see in this section,
male being fully accoutred with standing
collar, a belt, and pair of wooden shoes.
The females wear long linsey, woolsey
garment, loose at the waist, and tied at
the neck with string made of slippery
elm bark. The latter drink whiskey, chew
tobacker, and swear like the old Harry
They also take part in all Presidential
elections" r-

CRINoLIANA IN RHYME.-"A lady with n
crinoline was walking down the street
her feathers futtered in the air-her hoops
stuck out feet. She walked the earth as
if she felt of it she was no part, and proud
ly did she step along, for pride was in her
heart She Gid not see curly dog which
walked close by her side, all save the
bushy tail of which her crinoline did hide.
His tail the dog with pleasure shook-it
futtered in the wind, and from The lady IS
crinoline stuck out foot behind. A crowd
the tail soon did espy, as it waved to and
fro, and like rudder seemed to point which
way the maid should go. The curly dog
right pleased was he such quarters he had
got and walked beside the lady in a kind
of doggish trot. Each step she now did
take, served to increase her train, while
those who followed in her wake, roared out
with might and main. Some held their
sides they laughed SO hard, and many fairly
cried, and many even still confess that day
they, like to died. But still the lady sail
ed along III crinoline and pride, unmindful
of the crowd behind, or dog close by her
side. But soon another dog espied the
tail which fluttered frec-it so provoked his
doggish ire, he could not let it be-but
with deep, ferocious growl, for battle
straight he went, and meath the lady's
crinoline both dogs were quickly pent.-
They fought, It's said, one hour or more
the lady nothing knew-but with her head
erect sailed on, and did her way pursue.
Some say she never would have known Mt
all about the fight had not one dog mis-
took, and gave her limb an awful bite.
But since that day I've heard it said, that
lady ne'er was seen upon the street, with
SO much piide-and such crinoline."

The CHINESE WAR.-The news regard
ing the Chinese war, which we find in the
latest English papers, shows that it is be-
coming hugely important: The Chinese
are reckless of life, numerous almost, as the
