A PIKE's PEAK RoMANcE.-T;haS St. Joseph
GtSette relates the following bit Of ro-
nance
Among the many passengers arriving ev-
cry day by way of the Hannibal and St. Jo-
seph Railroad, to seek their homes in the
gold mines, a young man came few DAYS
ago, who manifested great Impotence and
restlessness and melancholy. He took lodp
ings at a quiet house up town, and said he
was going to Cherry Creek with the next
Salt Lake mail.stage, which starts this
morning. Evening before last young lady
came by the cars and stopped at a hotel in
one Of our greatest thoroughfares. She in
quired for Il Mr.. j. H., but the landlord
could give her no information respecting
him:
Yes crday morning she took her place at
front window to observe the passers by.
and had not been there long before she struck
the window forcibly and cried out in so loud
and distressed tone us to startle everybody
IN he room. She ran to the door CAL ny
John, dear John ! and there met the restless
melancholy young man, around whose eek
she threw her arms, and whose astonished
face she kissed most fervently, to the no
small establishment of the lockers on,
1t seems that she was rather a coouette.
and had rejected John after giving him rea-
son to hope for acceptance; that John had
the next day, in fit of desperation, set off
for the gold mines, and that she, in distrac-
ton had left her home and pursued, to bring
him back. She found him here as stated,
and this morning they returned together.
