SETTLING ADocToR's BILL BY MARRIAGE.
"A Young lady named Addie Jamlson, only
sixteen years old, at New York, in getting out
of an omnibus, last Spring, fell and broke one
of her legs. A young M. d., who lived in that
street had the suffering girl taken to his board
ing house, close by, where be set the broken
limb, and she was carried home He contn-
ued his attendance, fell in love with Miss j >,
and finally offered her his hand in marriage.
She accepted but the girls father refused his
consent to the match, because the doctor was
poor, and as yet had little practice.
Sawbones thereupon made out a bill at 81 a
visit for 2lS visits, and $50 for setting the
broken leg. He meant to be paid for his
courting, if it had all got to go for nothing.
The old man finding that he must pay some
S4O0 or $500 or lose his daughter, finally gave
the doctor the latter on receiving receipt in
full, and the juvenile Miss Jamison is now
Mrs. DR.. Grayson.

lhe most rational and probable explanation
OF the attack made by Gen. Burnside ON
fredericksburg Heights that We have seen is,
that his Frst intention on receiving his pontoon
bridges was TO make . JeiRt at Fredericks-
burg, while he should actually cross the river
at Port Royal, twelve miles below, thus taking
the enemy by surprise, and turning his right
Hank. 1t is even said that he announced this
purpose TO the War Department, and took his
measures accordingly. Pontoons were sent to
Port Royal; supplies lay in the river protect
ed by gunboats below that point; a division
was pushed forward, and everything made
ready for crossing. But Burnside found the
enemy had anticipated this movement and
were prepared TO meet ii. Ii then occurred to
HIM that as the Rebels merely expected him to
make .tsint at Fredericksburg, he would sur
prise them by ctually making that the point
OF attack, and with that view, at the last mo-
ment, he resolved TO do so, in the expectation
OF finding the heights held by small force

time to discover his intentions and call back
his troops. Having crossed his forces, Burn

fully produced the conviction upon the mind OF
Gen. Lee that the attack would be renewed
the opportunity was afforded to withdraw his
forces, which was successfully accomplished
If this be really the explanation of the affair
We do not see why 1t should not be accounted
as most creditable TO the commander. If his
| calculations were well based, he would have
! succeeded but for the unexpected delay in con.
structlng his pontoOns, occasioned by the per
tinacty Of the Rebel sharpshooters, the immu
nifty of the positions which they held, and tn,
difficulty Bin dislodging them. The best o
generals have had their wlsSst plans defeat
ed by such unforeseen mishaps.
