A ROMANCE OF THE COUNTRY.

.-#"s 'H- ter. ~ 10 --rl .gBE5 II

The scene of the following little romance is
near Powder Spring Gap, Granger county, at
the foot of Clinch Mountain. The principleac -
tors in the drama were Parson Shavers, his two
daughters, and young man formerly from this
county by the name of Robert Foster. 1t APP
pears that young Foster had been paying his at
tentions TO one of the Parsons girls, and repeat
eddy urged her to share his fortunes, which she
was not loath to do but for the positive dinial of
her fond parent. The old gentlemen even went
so far as to keep her confined and in secret from
her lover, forbidding him admission to his house.
Things went on in this way for some time, the
two lovers, however, meeting for few moments
on different occasions, and renewing their vows
of fidelity to each other, she promising to say
yes to any interrogations a preacher or esquire
might make to her at any chance opportunity:
For the good fortunes Of the young man, 1t
seems that the neighbors were all deeply. inter-
ested in his success, thinking, no doubt that
such constant devotion as his should meet
with the reward of possessing her hand,
the heart being his already Now it seemed
that the old gentleman who is hard working
man as we'll as preacher, had some shingles to
split some distance from the house, and accord
ingly started out thatday for that purpose. This
becoming known to some of his neighbors, they
Immediately informed the lover, the license
were procured in haste and Esquire Thurley,
who is always ready for such occasions, was
notified of the situation of things and the whole
party, accompanied by some friends proceeded
to the house of the parson. The intended bride,
of course was ready to fulfill her promise, and
was willingly led before the Esquire, who in the
quickest possible manner, pronounced them
man and wife, The ceremony had not been
concluded too soon, for the old gentleman made
his appearance abouttha time. We leave the req,
der to conjecture his surprise at finding himself
out-generaled. He now had but the one daugh-
ter left, but Lere was trouble again. She, too,
was being visited by young man, to which he
was opposed, and fearing q like result he at
once ordered her to get ready for trip, and ac-
pelling her to do likewise, for jamestown, Fen
tress county, distance of 128 miles. He has
Just returned, and we learn that certain young
man in that neighborhood emplates a jour
ney before long We hardly think that the old
man will be present at the second wedding.

The Cheafham Nashville Demonstration,
The Nashville Saturday night demon

Union and american (Cheatham organ,)
but fizzle according to the Banner John
son. Here is what the z. and Il. says:
The city last night was running over
with people and brim full of enthusiasm,
The streets through which the procession
passed were lined with enthusiastic crowds.
The ladies were out in full force throwing
boouets. waving hankerchiefs, and joining
i'm the general glee. From the indications
last niSht it is very evident that if the Ia
dies had the right to vote, Gen. Cheatham
would be elected by the largest majority
ever received by any candidate in Tenres-
see. It was certainly cheering sight, ex-
ceiling anything we have ever seen III
Nashville. .-.. -- .-r-.- -..-
Here is what the Banner says:
The Great Cheatham Spectacular DEM
onstration was failure. This is the hon.
est truth about it, Our reporters were in
structed to make fair report of 1t, put no
thing could present in more pltlabie as
pect than the simple recital OF the lacCs
without exaggeration. We have no oeslre
to misrepresent it. If it had been pro-
cession of two thousand instead of two OF
three hundred it could not have affected
the election anyway II the two or three
hundred had only been UoterS it would not
have been quite so ludicrous farce. we
doubt if there were hundred voters In
the line. But there was many thousand
on the sidewalks-and they were general
ly for Johnson. The voters In the process
sion (if it could honestly be dignified Win
that title) were generally on horseoack.
We were really Surprised to find SO few
grown men carrying torches or transpa-
RANCHES. Where were all the men of the
Organization ?" Everybody who saw IL
knows that nearly all the torch-bearers
were lads, of both colors,s between the Inc
ages of twelve and seventeen-little fellows
who couldn't carry the fiambeaux erect, and
amused themselves knocking the transpa-
RANCHES to pieces. With a little less yelling,
it might have been mistaken for Sabbath
School picnic by moonlight or azhighs
