unaccountable desCrion OF his fair fdfcte upon the
very eve Of their nurtias, las already been pub.
lished in THE Sun. This esTosd eli tied reply to
the allegations then made, which reply was printed
some days ago. In this reply Huntington charged
Miss Lent with INCONSISTENCY, and states that In
August, 1860. he notceda
GOODNESS IN TUE TONE OF nER LETTERS,
and made mention OF the same TO her at the same
time giving her warning that because OF the Irregular
correspondence hrs feelings were undergoing a
change The story as told by Miss Lieut. goes TO
prove very conclusivcy that Huntington had wooed
and won her affections. They we're betrothed. The
day for the marriage ceremony was fixed and duly
publisted in the church in accordance with his
press desire, and the recreant lover al the last
mcnt dashed her fond hopes to atoms in the most
cruel manner, by cooliy assuring her that he
LOVED SOMEBODY ELSE BITTER,
and hoped that she would release him.
"a The truth is" said Miss Lent, "thnt Huntington
had seen whit he thought were brighter eyes and
more winning smiles in the person Of Miss Emma
