Pretty lnciden4~
MAC

We have heard Of very pretty little inci
dent the other day, which we can not help
relating. young lady from the North, it.
seems, was wooed and won by youthful
physician living in California, When the
engagement W as made, the doctor was rich
having been very successful at San Francisco.
Ii had nor existed six munths however, when
BY an unfortunate investment, he lost his en-
tire cheap" This event came upon him it
should he added, just as he was making ready
! to come and claim his bride. What does he
do2 Why, like an honorable ch,valr"us
young fellow like he is, sits dbwn and writes
the lady every particular of the unhappy turn
| which had taken place IN his fortunes, sssur.
ing her that il the effect produces an, change
in her feelings toward him, she ia rele ssed
from every promise she had made to him.
Aud what does the dear guo girl do Why
she takes lump of pure gold, which her low
ca had sent her when in pro>p ri,y, !as keep
sake, and having il manufac, Ured into a ring
for" ards it TO him. with the following bible
inscription, engraved in distinct characters un

"Entreat me not to leave thee, or 10 re

est will lodge thy people shall be my peo-
! pie and thy God my God. where thou dest

| Lord do SO tn NE and more else, il sught but
death pa rt thee and me."
| The lover idol zed his sweetheart more
than ever when he received this precious ev-
idence of her devotion to him, both in storm
and sunshine. We may add that fortune
soon again smiled upon the young and ar
dent physician ani that he subsequently re-
turned TO the North, To wed the sweet glrl
| he loved, and who loved him with such an
undvlng affection. Nay, more, tho happy
bride and bridegroom passed through our
city, not long since, on their way to The
home of the latter in the golden State
Reader this ls all true. Young ladies' who
read the bible as closely as the heroine Of our
incident seems TO have done are pretty sure

Protest Of Bishop Potter g. Co.

The following is the protest issued recenti
by Bishop Potter and portion of the clergy
of his diocese
The subscribers deeply regret that the
fact of the extensive circulation through This
diocese of letter by John Henry Hopk ms,
Bishep Of the Diocese of Vermont in defence
of Southern slavery, compels them to max e
this public protest. It is not their province
to mix in any political canvass. But as min
listers Of Christ, in the Protestant Episcopal
Church, it becomes them to deny any COM
piici,y or sympathy with such defence.
This attempt to apologize no, only for
slavery in the abstract, but to advocate 1t as
it exists in the cotton States, and in States
which sell men a. nd " emen in the open mar
ket as their staple product, is in their judg-
ment, unworthy of any servant of Jesus
Christ. As an effort to sustain, on Bible
principles, the States in rebellion against the
Government, in the wicked attempt TO estab.
hsh by force Of arms tyranny under the
namo of a republic, whose " corner stone''
shall be the perpetual bondage Of the African,
1t challenges their indignant reprobation.

The Mcclellan Testimonial,

Virginia. October 3.

Virginia, October 3.
To THE EDIroR OF The WORLD:
You lave probably heard that the McClel
Ian testimonial has been abandoned This
token of the respect and confidence felt for
him by his old army, originated with the
best and truest men in the employ # the
government. The subscription was headed
by General Meade, and was signed by almost
every man of note as a soldier. state this
in order that you may understand that, like
all his other statements in reference to Nc
Clellan, the allegation If F,rney that il was
without any sanction at headquarters, was
false. 1t was intended to apply the money
raised to the purchase of q sword, or q ser
vice of plate. ana a very large sum had been
c"ntrit uted. The only difficulty was in re.
strainlng the subscription of the soldiers to
ten cents each. The dreadful plot TO honor
their general was disc .vered and General
Meade was sent for by Mr. Stanton, who in
sisted that it was contrary to regulatlons.-
The general replied that he had received
| sword, with Stanson's sanction, only few
weeks ago; but the secretary was inex.ra-
BILE, and by positive order the whole plan
was abandoned.
You can Imagine the disgust nf the officers
and the anger Of the soldiers. 1t would be
unsafe for the Secretary of War t. visit camp
just now. The men whose Confidence aud
affection Mcclellan won. without any relay

but to serve his cuantry and Ia aid in restnr
ing constitutional Union; who know that
he has refused to take any part in pnli,ics "r

Curtin and Stan'on-I say such men who
esteem themselves The children Of his crea-
ton, whom he baptised az soldiers in the fire
of battle will never forgive his traducers or
forget their general. They only pray for the
time when they can vote for him if they can
