Marriage of a Sabbath school superin.
tendent-ATery Pretty and True RO-

Speaking of Brooklyn, reminds me
that 1t is Just now somewhat exercised
by the denCuement of a very pretty ro-
nance, which the papers here have not
gotten hold of About four years ago
a young man, who had been figuring
extensively as the superintendent Of a
Sunday school belonging to The most ell
egant aud fashionable congregation In
the ''city of churches, became smitten
by the charms OF his fathers chamber
maid. land having seen her 1 don't
blame him He behaved toward her
with great respect and caution, but not
warily enough to escape his lynx eyed
mother, who, detecting the amour-in-
nocent enough thus far. mind you
sent away the young woman, whose
name was Mary. The young man was
too deeply smitten to allow her to dis
appear entirely, and SO the per-
sOnal columns of the papers were
called into play, and the amor
Gus pair met again. Shortly after this
his mother, who had also watched the
young woman, found that she had re-
moved to an elegant suite of rooms
beautifully furnished, at her sons ex-
perse, and with a servant at her beck
and call, was living very handsomely
for a sewing girl or chambermaid. Sus-
pecting something wrong, she watched
the house, saw her son enter it, and
followed to upbraid him with his de-
ceit to her, and his dishonorable con-
duct toward the girl, and to be very
much astonished in return by having
the duly authenticated marriage certi-
ficate of the pair thrust into her face.
By the laws of this state it is not nee
essary to procure license to be mar
ried, witnesses and a preacher are all
that are necessary. The old lady gave
in at this, and finally became Modified
by Mollie aud her son.
But here another difficulty presented
itself. The father of the young man
had sworn, when the girl had been sent
away from the house, that he would dis
inherit his son if he had anything more
to do with her. The mother declared
that he could not be Modified by the
aforesaid Mollie, and that the marriage
must be kept secret. And SOFT was until
last Sunday, fortnight. In the mean
time the pair have lived together as man
and wife and have had two children
Another was expected about the time OF
the singular revelation of the whole
story to the father; and was fine look
ing infant, couple of weeks ago, when
/ saw 1T.
Prescott journal. [volume] (Prescott, Wis.) 1861-1871, 1866-03-17

About eight weeks ago the young
man fell sick, and his father was told
that he must die. Very much distress
ed, the old man went to him and told
him the truth, and asked him if he had
not something on his mind that troub-
led him. The young man answered that
he had. and, in view of death, said he
must see his wife and children. The
old mans establishment got the better
of his affection, and for moment or
two he raved and swore at learning that
the son was married. Still greater was
his astonishment and rage to find the
wife was the forbidden chamber-maid.
But the old gentleman was human, and
his rage quickly gave way to kindness,
and the wife and children were sent
for; but when they arrived the husband
was speechless. He had only just been
able to beg his father to look to their
interest when he was dead, and then
had rapidly sunk until he was speech
less when his wife came. Her distress
and agony made him still worse, and the
doctors were compelled to expel her
from the room. Force was actually
necessary, and fainting she was carried
off to another room, where, during the
night. she was attacked with the pains
of labor, gave birth to a child, and fell
into fever in which she lay delirious
for three weeks. When she finally re-
covered it was to find her husband her
principal nurse. The excitement Incl
dent on their parting had mysteriously
brought about an Improvement in his
condition, and in two weeks he was able
to go to his sick wife's room. She rap
idly recovered on gaining conscious
ness, and now is as well and happier
than ever. Sunday fortnight last the
Superintendent of the Sunday School
very much astonished the pupils by
walking up the aisle to his accustomed
place. leading his little girl by the hand,
and followed by his handsome wife and
their second child. The mother says
that standing up TO be married is moth
ing to facing whole Sunday School of
children who have been looking on her
husband as single man when he was
the father of three fine babes. No lady
reader will find any difficulty in believ-
ing her in this statement.

The total of this sum is less than the

ish government and people. 1t will
doubtless he remembered that, after the
battle of Waterloo and the fall of Ma
poleon, the English Parliament voted
an estate to the Iron Duke to cost two
hundred thousand pounds or a million
of dollars mot in greenbacks, but gold. }
The Duke was to select his estate. -
Several were offered him, many of them
princely. Among others was one offer
ed by an old noblemau who had two,
aud who prided himself on the extent
and condition of the one which he
would be only too proud to have the
Duke accept. The Duke was invited to
examine it, and promised to do so.--
When he came down from London for
that purpose, the old lord happened to
have a severe attack of the govt. He
sent explanations and many apologies
TO the Duke, aud said that, as he could
not 90 himself, he had sent his steward
or head man to show him the ''farm.
Every well, said the Duke, ''all right"
and off the pair started to see it. Sew
eral hours after leaving his lord the
steward returned, covered from head to
foot with dust and mud, and panting as
if he had made the tour on foot instead
of on horseback He explained TO his
lordship that he had started off with the
Duke aud his orderIy-''That is" said
the steward, ''the Duke started off, and
I and his orderly managed TO keep with
in sight and hailing distance of him,
and that was all. / don't know what he
thought or how he liked the estate, but
the last heard of him was his shout to
me to tell your lordship that he would

Grant and the Iron Duke have certain
peculiarities in common. Neither will
ever be noted for loquacity. Like Well
ington, Grant says little In return for
the gift proffered him, except that 'he'll
take it, and goes off about his business.
And so the whole matter is all right, ex-
cept that the gift is not half large
enough, but will do for the present.
