The Romance of an EARLY Engagement

The following romantic story is told of LORD
March grandson of Charles H., who afterward
became the second Duke of Richmond and who,
while yet quite young, was engaged, without
being consulted as to the choice, to a lady stin
younger. The bride was Lady Sarah, the
daughter of the Earl of Cadogan, Marlborough's
favorite general. The union according to Ma
piers account) was bargain to cancel gamh-,
ling debt between the parents, and the young,
Lord March was brought from college, the lady
from the nursery for the ceremony. The bride
amazed and silent, but the bridegroom ex-i
claimed, "Surely you are not going to marry noe,
to that dowdy?' Married he was, however, and
his tutor instantly carried him off to the Conti-!
nent. Three years after this event Lord March
returned home from his travels most accom-
plished gentleman; but having a very disagree
able recollection of his wife he avoided home.
and repaired, on the first night of his arrival TO
the theater. There he saw lady of so fine az
appearance that he asked who she was, and on,
being answered that she was " the reigning toast,
the beautiful Lady March, he fastened TO
claim her, and they lived together so affection
ately that one year only after his decease in
1850, she died of grief. One of the numerous
children of this loving pair, Lady Sarah, grew
| up an extraordinary beauty, attracted the at
| tention of George III. who had then assembled
the throne, at the age of twenty-five, and her
charms made such deep impression on the
heart of the young King that he, doubt,
would have married her had not influence beer
| exerted to prevent it and he was compelled by
| State policy to marry the Princess Charlotte of
Mecklenburg- Strelitz, who bore him fifteen chill
dren of whom the Duchess of Gloucester was
| the last surviving, and who died in 1857 The
subsequent marriage of Lady Sarah Lennox, in
1764, to Sir Thomas Charles Bunbury, Bart.
who was the son of a clergyman, proved that
| her ambition was not ruling passion. But her
married life was an unhappy one, and the mar
| rage dissolved by act of Parliament in
1776. She was afterward married to the Hon.
Major General George Napier, and became the
mother of set of the most remarkable men.
among whom were the late Sir Charles James
Napier, the conqueror of Scinde and Lieutenant
General Sir William Napier the historian of the
Peninsular War. Her ladyship died inl826, at
the advanced age of eighty-two, and was believed
to be the last surviving great grand daughter of
Charles III. .., -

The Friends of Washington.

1T isevidentsfrom the following story that the
in the early days of our republic did
not materially differ from those of the present
day in what Miss Jenny Wren could call their
tricks and their manners"
At the time of the first election of General
Washington to the Presidency, there was party
in Virginia called the " John Jones party" Now
the said John Jones was man of talent, and a
plotting shrewd fellow, possessing all the
requisites of politician except personal popu
larity. To overcome this deficiency, in contest
with popular candidate for Congress,
John early avowed himself as the peculiar and
devoted friend of Washington, and upon this
point endeavored to place his rival in opposi-
ton.
To carry out this object he called meeting of
- County, friendly to the election of General
Washington. On motion of friend, he was
made chairman Of the meeting.
He opened the proceedings by "a high eulogium
upon the life and services of Washington, but
| taking care only to speak of himself as his early
patron and most devoted friend, and concluded
by proposition to form party to be called
- The true and only sons of the Father of his
Country and for that object he submitted to the
considerat IN of the meeting the following reso-
luton =
| /" ResoIued, That we are the friends of George
Washington, Esq, and will sustain him in the
|
candidates..
Gentlemen" said Mr.. Jones, "the Chair is
now about to put the question. The Chair hopes
that every man will declare his sentiments for
| and against all those in favor of the resolution
will say AYE"
| The response was like the shout of many
voices
"Now for the opposition" said Mr.. JONES'
=" All of the contrary mind say no.
Nota voice was heard. The dead silence seemed
to confuse Mr.. Jones little, and he said
Gentlemen, do cote. The Chair can't decide
disputed question when nobody votes on tother

ceives that there folks in this meeting what
