LOVES YOUNG DREAnr.
A Curiosss Case of EIopeTnent Sud.
denly Frustrated.

dcEIE n EuBtEsAtcO
A widow lady and her daughter, the lat |
ter aged about II years, have been stop
ping for six months past with lady friend |
Of theirs in this city. The son Of a neigh |
boring family who is not yet old enough
for military duty, was so unfortunate as to
fall desperately in love with the widows
pretty daughter. He was modest,
bashful youth, and in his attentions
to the daughter never could say as much
to the mother as by your leave" He
was, however, equal to the occasion OF
saying gentle and pretty speeches to the
modest little object of his affections, and
the result, as usual in such cases, was an
engagement to be married But how to
accomplish this much desired end with
out creating a disturbance or mourning
serious opposition was question dIthcuit
of solution. But like all other questions
of this description it was finally answered,
or at least partially explained. The solu-
ton occurred yesterday, and got the youth
full lovers and the mother of the pref
ty little girl into trouble. For some
| DAYS past the mother has been
making preparations for starting to the
| distant city of Omaha. The daughter did
not wish to go so far away from her boy
| lover, but faithfully kept her secret, never
breathing word of it even to her dear
| mother. This was certainly wrong. Girls
| should keep no such important secrets
| from their BEST friends. Yester-
Cav was the time set for the departure Of
the mother and daughter for Omaha. In
due time the two were at the depot of the
Louisville and Nashville Railroads.&c. wa
the girls sweetheart, but he and she onl,
knew the fact Tickets were purchased
and the mother and daughter were ABOARD
the outgoing train. At the moment TIL
cars were leaving, the daughter, who In tn
confusion and hurry of the occasion, ha'
got beyond her mothers sight, steppe
| quickly off the train, and it wa
sometime before her absence was notice
by the mother. The fact was fin
ally discovered, however, and inquir
made through the rapidly moving train fc
the missing girl OF course she was ne
found aboard, and at Edgefeld Junction til
distressed mother disembarked and return
.. ed to the city. She was greatly shocke
at the discovery of her daughters elop'
ment, and in her distress scarcely kne
what to say or do. Kindly disposed gel
tlemen told her to apply to the police, an

IuYenile DepraVitY.

Not many days ago party OF young per-
sons-three boys and two glrls-arrlved
here from their homes in Hamilton county,
near Chattanooga, and stopped at house
of i'll repute on Criddle street. They were
regarded by the police and others as sus-
picious characters, but until Thursday last
nothing had occurred to direct public at
tention particularly to their conduct or IN
duce inquiry as their names and antece-
dents. Their associations had been con-
fined to themselves, and they seemed to
be living and acting in a miniature world
wholly their own, having no communlca-
ton whatever with other people. They
appeared strongly, if not even strangely,
attached to each other But on Thursday
difficulty and fight occurred between
two of the boys at the Criddle Street house
mentioned, and this circumstance led to
the arrest of all the gang except one,
alone, who managed to make his es cape,
and is still at large. Those arrested give
their names as John Yarnell, Robert Da-
Wis. Sallie Roddy and Mollie Davis, and
say that the one who escaped is named
John Roddy. Yarnell is nineteen years
old. Davis about eighteen, and each of
| the girls about fifteen years OF
age. They claim to be kin to each
other, and represent themselves
in fact as one family. They appear pass
ably intelligent, and neither in face or de-
| pertinent does either exhibit the depravity
| and crime which other circumstances al
lege against them. A few hours subse-
| duent TO the arrest of these hayward chill.
dren, letters were received from Chatta
nooga giving their names, personal ap
peaTance, etc, and directing that they
be arrested and detained. These letters
further state that the three boys mentioned
stole two horses in the county of Hamilton
rode them to Chattanooga, sold the prop
erty for half its value, and absconded witt
the proceeds. The whole affair looks baC
for the youthful parties now in prison
awaiting further developments.

RrROm Corn.

1t is not, most likely, generally known
what profits there are in the culture OF
broom corn. Any quantity could be sold
in tic market, for home consumption, to-
day at $40 per ton, and the price is never
lower than hundred and twenty dollars a
ton. Persons could now engage all they
can raise at a S120 a ton. We learn
from those conversant with the products
Of our soil that the average yield of our
lands would be from eight hundred to a
thousand pounds, the former being the
minimum per acre. Even at the lowest
price, and at the minimum yield, each
acre would net the producer $50, and at
present prices would Of course go far
beyond that. 1t is easier raised than the
common Indian corn, and the value Of the
seed is a sufficient remuneration for pre-
pairing the article for market. The same
labor that it takes to cultivate from five TO
eight acres of cotton would cultivate from
twenty to twenty-five acres of broom
corn. The crop of the latter IS
sure one, and the market certain one.
The former is procarious and uncertain IN
both senses of the word. The same soil
that produces the one will produce the
other. and there is much soil that Will pro-
duce broom corn that viii not produce
cotton. The demand for broom corn IS
extensive and on the increase and the sup
ply not equal to it. The consumption Of
the article in this city alone is over 80
tons a year Those who favor a diversity
Of crops in agriculture, upon which every
other pursuit depends, would do well to
give this matter their attention.

Yesterday, during the recess OF the Sen

from the counties of Davidson, Robertson,
Montgomery and Cheatham, collected the
members of the two Houses, the Governor
and other State officers together In the
Hall of the House of Representatives,
and, after calling them to order,
informed them that there was a little
unfinished business on hand which must
he disposed Of He told them that the
time for discussion had passed and the
time for action had arrived. He therefore
moved the previous question, declared 1t

doors Of several of the Committee Rooms
were thrown open and broad tables were
beheld grooming underline weight Of nearly
every conceivable brand of Champagne and
Catawba, interspersed with numerous boxes
Of the best brands of cigars. Upon the
window curtains were fastened notices,
''LET's HAVE PEACE.

formal, but all the more agreeable for
that. One enthusiastic member said he

The notorious Cad Perkins, who is now

Nashville. is evidently the most artful
dodger Of the period Yesterday Cad made
his appearance at the farm of gentleman
on the Granny White pike, about eight
miles from the city. He was first dlscov-
cred by small boy who was out with a
wagon and team gathering wood. When
observed by the boy Perkins appeared to
be asleep in cluster of trees, and upon
being awakened said he was trying to catch
some squirrels in a trap. Returning TO the
house, the boy Informed his father of the
adventure with the squirrel hunter, and
forthwith a party of the neighbors was col
lected for the purpose of interviewing, "
if possible, the nimble imam and brother.
The latter did not wish to see company,
and therefore disappeared more rapidly
than they could possibly advance. He was
honored with several shot gun salutes, but
made no halt or reply. When the pursuing
party got their last glimpse at the man 50
hard to catch, he was moving of in quarter
horse style, rapidly increasing the space
between himself and those who wished to
make his better acquaintance.
