tFrom the Detroit Uu.or, October eots.F
Another cnsc Of dial dtsobcdicnce and the
results attending It has iuet come to light,
which reveals . depth Of misery, 'i,t'e es-
far US the known facts 70, tend to prove that
very little happiness can be expected from
iudiscreet marriages, and also THAT young
school girls will hear watching. The full
history Of the sad case VIC are about to re-
late probably never will be known, but
enough has trnnspircd to stamp one Of the
parties as q villain, and the other as q
victim Of misplaced confidence 1t
appears that MI John Col~tN, who Is
respectable farmer. and who lives few
mined to send his daughter Della. a fair,
modest girl Of sixteen Year,, to ncted ec-
male Seminary, located at Puinscyi1Ie, Ohio.
Accordingly the necessary arrangements
were mudc. and With many aAnonftaona az
10 her conduct and bearing while away from
loving parents, as 1t subsequently, transpired,
never more to return. For several weeks
after arriving ut the Seminary her conduct
was excellent. and She soon gained not
only the approbation Of her teachers. but OH
tained the title OF the best behaved girl in tue
Whole school. It seems that it is i rule OF
the Institution thut male visitors may be
introduced only once q week, aud thai on
"Wednesday afternoon, between the hours Of
two aud four O'Clock. Among the number
of regular visitors was young man by the
name of Hepry Brand, who was without any
visible means Of support, bnt who managed,
in some uraccountable manner, to dress we'll
and appear neat, and became acq ualnted with
Deliu on the OCCASION Of ore Of Ills visits, and
The two Immediately BECAME desperately in
love with cacl, otlIsr. and VOWS Of eternal
eonstapcy were undoubtedly exchanged.
ClundestIuc visits were arranged in and
about tho ground, and for O number Of
weeks they were successfully carried
on. a. length they. were discovered
and Della was forbidden to 50 out AFTER lark.
But love laughs at locks auirrim old maids,
su"ll o. tho nlatron, and a rore ladder being
provided by Brand he was enabled to ascend

often did this occur that Della became nearly
SICK from loss of the nrcessary siecp.
