THE LAST ROMANCE "A New York cor
respondent OF the Aibeny Argus relates that
handsome orphan work girl had been some
time courted by journey man halter. One
day she pressed him to marry, as she had re-
ceived disrespectfu proposals from rich
lawyer. - There is my hand" said she,
marry me directly" The lover. highly in-
dignant at the attorney, was too glad to obey
the direction. The marriage took place at
the residence Of the bride. The evening be-
fore the wedding, however, the bridegroom
told Mary Elizabeth that he had a secret TO
tell. He was not journeyman halter, but
was one Of the richest men in the city Of
Boston, and said he would take her the next
day to the beautiful country seat in the sub
urbs q the modern Athens, which he had in
herited from his father and mother, for he,
indeed, was an orphan like his bride, his Ma
" Elizabeth. He had seen her at Barnum's
Museum, and resolved to make her his own
when convinced Of her worthness.

The address Of the National Union Com
mittee is severely censured, on the supposilion
that it comedies that the rebel States may be
re-admitted TO the Union on the conditions
embraced in the pending amendment to the
Constitution-that is, on their agreement to
the amendment. So they may, but not nee
essarily. Congress has not tied itself to
those conditions alone nas not precluded
itself from requiring other conditions and
it is at liberty to consider each State on its
merits. II, with this amendment, it is not
safe or prudent to admit any other State to
representation, Congress may refuse to do 70,
precisely as it has often refused to admit ier-
ritories to representation for various good
reasons.
