"1. Bache1or, Esq. s" O6ituary. The many readers of THE NEWS will probably be startled by the intelligence that "A Bachelor, Esq.," whose contributions dur ing the past few weeks Tn controversy with "A Maiden" has caused much indignation ot the fair sex to rise, is no more. He de- parted from the life of single blessedness on the l5 train at Lakevllle on Wednes- day, Oct. 22nd, with a blushing bride upon hls arm to comfort him in his decininp years He is young man nearly 80 years of age, and when he left that lonely vale of tears Gin which A. Maiden still resides, ) he was extremely happy. Many thanks to the Maiden whose kind efforts and eloquent appeals for her sex are rendered by him for her kindness expressed in giving him such advice which has made him the happiest of men. Hereafter he will ever be found strong advocate in the defense of woman, who IS one of Gods noblest gifts to man, Had he the honor of "A. Maiden's" ac means should be left untried by him to procure for her that which she has long and so earnestly sought i. e. n husband. May she not seek in valn, but hnd one with large heart, and pocket book to correspond to adorn her sylph like form, is the wishes of her once oppo ncnt. Thanking her for the pleasure and amusement she has given him during tn 8 controversy, and hoping his demise in the prime of life will not cause her to envy him his happiness; also that she will ex- cuse him in not replying to her last, as he cannot do so without wounding the e,l- lngs of her, whom he has vowed to honor. love and cherish until death separates, Therefore he retires from the field of con- lroversy, not conquered, but won.
