MARRYING THE WRONG WoMAN.--A Penn,

sylyania paper says:
Reading an article 10 which Mrs. Cakes
Smith relates q story of a woman proposing to
the wrong man. reminds US Of an occurrence
that happened in this State some twenty years
since. A distinguished professor and divine
from the neighborhood of Pittsburg was on
visit to some friends east of the mountains, and
was introduced to very respectable family
which had two accomplished daughters-0nc
Of them very handsome, and tho other rather
plain. ...l.e .,...s
After spending some weeks in the nclghbor.
hood, and having frequent opportunities Of
meeting the ladies, he became quite cnamored
with the younger and the prettier OF the sisters.
He, however, returned home without any pre-.
ference. He was man OF very sedate and
studious habits, and soon became absorbed IN
his books, and for time he seemed to forget
his new acquaintance. But the image OF one
of them seemed to be continually before his
mind After having maturely considered the
matter and having, no doubt, sought guidance
from on high, he concluded to commence
correspondence with the object of his affection.
Unfortunately, or fortunatel y as he after
wards stated, he addressed the wrong lady.
He had got their names transposed. The cor
respondence finally led to an engagement. The
day was fixed for the wedding, and the rcYcr-
end doctor of divinity made his appearance at
the proper time. But what was his surprise
to find that he was going to marry a lady he
had not courted But being sensible and an
honorable man, he said nothing about it, be-
ieving the hand of Providence was in the mat
ter, and was actually married to the sister Of
the girl he though he had Won. Time wore
on !; she proved to be most amiable, intclli-
gent and afectionatc wife He never told the
story till after the younger sister was happily
married. He never had reason to repent the
mistake, and he is to this day firm in the be-
lief that God so ordained it for his happiness,
"All's we'll that ends well" !.

PRESIDENT JoHNsoN's LETTER is, to US, 3
very honest, sensible one. We will not go out
of our way, tosttribute improper motives to
him In issuing his late Proclamation: 1t is
sufficient for us, that it is good in itsalf-and
we have no doubt was meant for good. We
can say this for man, many of whose previous
acts we have disspproved of-and who did
much before, during; and since the war, which
has never met our appreciation. Even suppos.
ing he wants to be President again under the
circumstances, treated as. he has been, the
wish is, at least, not unnatural. 1t is par
donable feeling. For Mr.. Johnson's noble
stand in defence of constitutional liberty, and
for his efforts in opposition to Radical misrulse
and Southern oppression, we shall always feel
grateful We believe that had he moved ear:
lier, and been more determined, in the outset,
he could have done more But for what he
has attempted, struggling almost alone, against
fanatical party in Congress, We repeat, VIC
are grateful. 1t isnot for US, ordor the South,
to deny him any praise or thanks, to which he
is entitled, though he should not receive the
nomination. u That is another matter entirely.
We are not speaking of him in connection with
present or future office.
