A ROMANCE OF TWO STATES,
HOwa Young LOuisvlllian Got ,
Wife.

Matrimony in this matter of fact 40,
is very generally mere business trans
action, utterly devoid Of the tender and
delightful characteristics of the days of
chivalry, and very different affair
from those told Of by fiction writer's.
Occasionally. however, some young
couple, following the promptings OF
loving hearts, refuse to heed the ad
vice of cool. calculating parents, and
get up a marriage with n spice of ro-
nance in it worthy of the days of
knight errantry. A case in point oc-
CURED in this city n short time ago. We
tell it as twas told 10 us:
-Four years since ayoung man came
from Anderson county, KY, to this
city, and began the pursuits of life as Il
grocer's clerk. lie became acquaint
ed with a young lady about two years
since and loved her. Her parents,
shortly after the formation of the &C.
quaintance removed to North Vern-
on. Ind. Time rolled on and a regu.
lar correspondence was kept up until
about week ago. when the young
man left Louisville to bring his loved
one home. He went through the task
Of asking the "old folks" but instead
If saying yes, they locked the yonng
ally up, and positively refused to per-
nit the marriage to take place. The
'oung man returned to this city al
most disconsolate and without even a
onsoling thought, but determined not
o give way to useless grief, went to
rork as usual. About l O'Clock next
lay, while counting eggs in the store,
delicate female hand gently touched :

home with him she so devoted, loved.

an indication of coarsencss and CHM.

that terminating in ringlets. Dares,
the historian, states that Achilles and
Ajax lebanon had curling locks; such
also was the hair Of Tlmon the Athe-
man. As to the Emperor Augustus,
nature had favored him with such re-.
dnndant locks that no hair dresser in
Rome could produce the like. Auburn
or light brown hair was thought the
most distinguished. as portending in.
telligence, industry, a peaceful dispo-
sition' rs well as great susceptibility
to the tender passion. Castor and Pol. |
lux had brown hair; so also had Meme. |
