In our last we announced the marriage Of
William Page, painter, OF the city Of New York,
and Mrs. Sophia Candace Hitchcock, daughter
of Henry Stevens of Barnet, Verm mt They
were married in Rome, Italy, on the 9Th ut.
We do not suppose that Mr.. Page is person.
ally known to many in this vicinity, if indeed he
is to any one. But the lady whom he has mar.
rled has many friend among us, whose interest
in whatever is so intimately connected with her
happiness the event above spoken Of, is not
diminished by her prolonged absence in Europe.
We take the following notice Of Mr.. Page
from the n. Y. Erening Post:
This announcement in private letter, which
arrived here by the Persia, will crafty the nu-
merous friends Of the most eminent American
painter OF our time. The lady to whom he is
thus fortunately married was a widow, who had
been fol- the past three years residing in Rome
and culiivating the art by which her husband
has attained his reputation. She is sister Of
Simon Stevens. distinguished lawyer OF Lam
caster Pennsylvania, and has been afiianced to
Mr.. Page for something more than twelve
months. The marriage is said TO be founded on
an entire unou Of tastes, sympathies and aspira.
tons
Mr.. Page, with the exception of his last sum
mers visit in this city, has resided in Italy since
the year 1850. HIS stay abroad has not beer
without an important influence on his modes o.
thought and his style as an artist. A careful
study Of six months in Venice of the works o
| Titan has enabled him to establish bis previou,
