A SECRET MARRIAaE.-The Springfield
.jIll) Advertiser tells the following:

ILL., ~
For many months young gentleman, we'll
known to the citizens Of Springfield, paid his
attentions to young lady who occupied apo
si,ion in Deighboring town several degrees
more elevated, socially, than his own The
youth being Of good personal appearance, and
wi.hal an excellent couversatloulst, succeed ID
jn engaging the affections Of the young lady to
40 extent that nothing could satisfy exc pit
matrimony The postofhce had for time
done it, duty, as postof6ces always do in such
matters, and many We're he long and doubt
less, tender messages that passed between the
loving two, protected by the efficient care OF
their dear uncle from the prylng eyes OF lhos'
who would have given something nice to have
known what was going 90.
''The lady knew that her papa and mamma
would never cousent to the union OF two loving
hearts, with her parents mine Of wealth laying
betws en- them, aud so she readily consented to
the young mans proposition to be married on
the sly and all unknown to the folks, while
she was on visit to some Of her relations at
Columbus, her charmer called aud the narrla. Q
took place. After briet honeymoon IN the
capital city of Onio, she returned to her home
but her husband did not return with her.
"Fron the time of the daug ghter's arrival
home the old people faDcied they could hear
strange noises In the house. Steps were often
heard upon the STAIRS In the lone still hours OF
night. Various articles of furniture moved
mysteriously about In the room above, and the
Old gentleman and lady foally cameto the con.
clusion that the house was haunted, or that
something was wrong. One night, alter all
had retired, the parents not only distinctly
heard steps upon the stairs, but voices and
noises on the landing place above. Armed
with a horse pistol that had done good service
10 npioneer times, The father lett bis bed and
quietly approached the foot Of the STAIR, where
he touod, resting upon the lower step, a pair
of boots. At once be set up the cry OF thieves,
robbers, murderer, that in twink hns
brought every member of the household to the
saene--exoept his daughter.
.'All hands then proceeded cautiously to the
young adys room, and not oeng able to arouse
her, they broke open the door just in time to
see bootless man dive through the window.
The old gentleman rush ID to The opening, dis
charged his pistol, and the young man dropped
to,he ground Great heavens you have killed
my husband! exclaimed the daught-r, falling
back ard falnting upon the bed. Your bus
band,' cried all in breath, and then q rush Of
domestics tor the yard be- low.
line young man was found upon the ground
beneath the window, carried into the house,
and the old people, frantic with griet and fear,
promised to receive him to their hearts if he
would only live. The doctor soon arrived, and
having dressed slight flesh wound upon his
arm, pronounced hun in no danger. He has
DOW recovered and is one Of the hapniest men
within fifty miles of Springfield.
