ges 25,OOO-CuriOus Revelations.
Breach of Promise Case, promising the most
curious and extraordinary revelations, is now the
talk of the tOwn-and the subject has obtained
noteriey through the newspapers, we shall be neld
blameless for telling what know of the matter.
The parties all rank among the fashionables, and,
whatever may be said of the merits of the case in
point enjoy the hi hest respectablity and the pro-
found regard of the best people in the city.
Some years ago, DR.. Amos Biuney, of Mount
Vernon street, married an accomplished lady,
cousin, bearing the same surname. The families
of 10th were wealthy, and the united fortunes
sweled the aggregate TO highly respectable mon
etary hgure-suficient at all events, to place the
pair beyond the prospect of future want. It is
true, unfortunate speculatons at one time reduced
the fortune of the Doctor some 5000 900 but he
rapidly covered that amount in other specula-
tons which turned out more successfully. Mr..
and Mrs. DR.. Binney lived In all the enjoyment of
connubia felicity for many years, when it pleased
Providence to call away the Doctor to another bet
ter world. The widow was left with all the charms
OF ripe and graceful womanhood, and all the gol-
den beauties of an ample and unencubered fortune.

Europe was proposed. The party was composed
OF several Boston ladies and gentlemen distinguish

and our readers may imagine the style of the entire
tour. In the course of their rambles, they, OF

OF that luxurious land of love and maccaroni, the
widows heart touched with youthful and un
dying fame of attachment to one Moses Inglee, a
