most melancholy facts inrelation to young

Preble county, Ohio, and the latter a resident of
Oxford It appe0rs that the young gentleman
is n student at West Point military academy,
and the lady was his betrothed. Being absent
from her long while, he returned home some
two weeks since and found her married and in
her second confinement, Although correspon.

she had concealed the fact of her marriage, and
of course he was startled to find how matters
stood on his return. The young man wisely de-
termined to let affairs pass Off quietly and seel,
friends and fortune in another place.
In view of this determination he concluded
not to see the lady, but unwise counsels of
friends prevailed with him, and he went TO the
house where she resided While in room nd.

terview with him. He Immediately repaired
to the room, where most effecting scene occur
