The Troubles OF . Newly.Married Couple

A day or two ago scene occurred at a botel
on Jackson street that we apprehend should
have been witnessed in order to have fully appre-
ciated it, The story is difficult one for modest
youth to tell, bu: duty commands US to proceed,
and we do so-not, however without some doubt
as to being able to do full justice to the in
teresting incident.
A balmy youth, evidently little experienced
in the wicked and sinful tricks practiced in this
naughty world, arrived few days ago at the
hotel indicated with his wife, lady about his
own age, of comely APPEARANCE, and apparently
as unsophisticated as the lily of the valley. The
bloom was on her cheek, and the brightness of
her dark blue eye was beautiful to behold. She
charmed her husband and won the admiration
of all beholders. He evidently dotted upon her
in an excessive degree, and could scarcely find
ways enough in which to manifest the ardor of
his affections 1t was evident that they had
not heen married more than few weeks. So
pleased was he with everything, that he told the
tale of his love to those around. We will hot
repeat it. Suffice it to say, the substance of it
all was that the young mar, about three months
ago, saw the young lady in a Wisconsin village,
and after a brief courtship married her, and
few days ago came here to enjoy the delightful
air of Minnesota.
A few days since the lady complained of not
feeling very well. The air or something else
did not agree with her. Her ailings became
more serious, and the alarmed husband sent for
medical aid. The symptoms appeared strange
to the doctor, in view OF the fact that the par
ties had been married but three months, and he
accordingly interrogated both parties. but re-
ceived no information different from that above
related. Further examination satisfied him
that tho art he practiced was certain and with
out variation, that certain results must follow
certain conditions. The conditions he beheld.
The results required but few hours to present
themselves. He communicated the fact to the
anxious husband, and left the two alone. The
husband, though very inexperienced, thought it
was not quite right, and tendery- desired to
know from his weeping wife "why these things
were thus" Through several showers of tears,
and with n multitude of protestations, the
dearly beloved wife breathed into the anxious
ears of her noble and unsuspecting spouse ber
story. She orphan, and lived with her
uncle, n respectable, gray-headed gentleman
This uncle had son about her own age. With
this son the lady had lived and played with al
the innocence of a sister. She had treated him
just like brother, and she knew he had done
nothing wrong unless in an unguarded moment
he had administered chloroform to her a1d then
acted improperly. This she suspected must
have been the case, if anything was wrong but
she did not believe the doctor was correct.
There must be some mistake, and she begged
her husband to wait and see. He believed her
and did wait The doctor was correct. His
prognos tications were fully realized n few hours
after the interview between the husband and
wife. Then came the hardest trial for the
youthful husband. But he bore it manfuly,
bravely magnanmously. The subdued wife re-
stated her former assertions in regard to the son
Of the uncle. The husband generously and i'm
plctly believed her. He knew she could not
do wrong. He had no doubt of the truth of her
relation, and is now living with her before,
with all the confidence in her story necessary to
render him the happiest man in the State. He
is satisfied that the ctloroform did it all, and
that his little wife is s as pure as snow-as
chastc as ice en-.Sf. Paul Pioneer
