RUNAWAY MATCH AND RECONCILIATION

RUNAWAY MATCH AND RECONCILIATION. Terryville is just recovering from an ex cltement occaslOned by the elopement of 6 young and tslented physician with the youngest daughter of a leading citizen. The suitor, 1t appears. had been engaged to young lady in New Haven,. but for some reason broke the engagement, and on that account, the facts becoming known, Incurred the ill-will of the parents of the Terryville girl, who thought that he hud acted dishonorably. He pressed bis new suit, however, SD vigorously that match appeared to be fOregone conclusion, and the opposition which he net with from headquarters gradually wore away, till he came 10 be recognized in tue family us an accepted sultor.> .%rhe subject of the wed. ding was somewhat canvassed, and it was about decided upon that the marriage should take placeAi in September. Mean F time the mother of the girl, desiring to act 8 generous part in the affair, came to this city and made liberal purchases with a view to nlake the event satisfactory to the daugh. ter. It appears, however, that otLer ar- engagements had been made by the daught- CT herself, who had already uubeknown to her parents, visited Hartford and secured complete wedding outfit. No sooner,
 
 home, than the lovers packed up bag and baggage, sought the services of clergy man, and were speedily on their way to Niagara enjoying their honeymoon. When the indulgent mother returned to Terry vile she foundl the birds had flown. Here was an unexpected development, and it naturally revived the old spirit ofiopposi- tion, aud almost led to 8 final estrange- ment between parents and child, but on Saturday last the truants returned and met with Q cordial welcome from the family and other friends, and their prospects seem to be as bright as could be wished9 Tue hus- baud laid his plans for tbe elepeiAeBt sys- tematically, even to engaging g young phy- sician of this city toattend to bis practice in Terryyille during his absence. The af. fair, though it has happily terminated, has furnished an abundance of material for gossip among the usually quiet social cir cles of the place.-C0urdnk

The Boat Race.

Although disappointed, the American public is not surprised at the defeat oi Harvard in the boat race of Friday last. The English papers abound in good natur- ed palaver, and the American in good tenn peeed excuses; but the simple truth is that the Harvards were fairly and decisively beaten by a crew, which. though no better if as good men physically, were neverthe. less more skillful oarspen. How race in the. American way on American water would result, this race does not at all deter mine; but it shows conclusively that row. ing in their own way on their own course. Oxford is an over match for any Americ an college.
 Harvard will certainly learn much from the experiment. their treatmsht since their arrival nEnglsnd and on the day of the race has been perfectly fair, courteous and hospitable; so that the trip will be pleasant as we'll as useful. A few American idiots lost money staked on the result and served them right. Betting patriotism is an ex. tremely poor article of patriotism which it it is we'll to have discouraged.
 We hope the Oxfords can be persuaded to visit us, next year., We have no fear i that American hospitality would fall be- hind that of the mother country;" and we suspect that with another twelvemonth for practice. the verdict of Friday last mighi be reversed.

Mrs. Isabella Bsceher Hooker of Hart ford, was present, and read Q letter from her sister, Mrs. Stowe, approving of the proposed reform. This is. we believe, the first time that lady has come out openly for woman's suffrage. Mr. Theodore Til ton of the Indepesdsnt, was present, and received we'll deserved rebuke for his bit ter attack on Mrs. Stowe in the Byron matter. He remarked, that he wished Mrs. s. knew how to keep her secrets as well as she did her howe. Mrs. Stanton replied.
 That she wished the women would stand up for each other as well as did the men, Now that Lord Byron was assailed every man and the whole press of the country were indignant, and as with one voice were extolling him, and she who was the pride and glory of America. is severely censured for lighting the wrongs of fellow woman. When women will as quickly resent each other imputa- Gons and be sistess n6t only in name but in heart and sympathies, then aibetter future awaits them Mrs. Stanton said. m the course of her remarks that she had known Lady Byron intimately, and fully believed the statements of Mrs. Stowe to be facts. 4f '2i3A .s'E@h oii4 ie est.A-44
