A city Romance.

In busy street of London there
stands house containing room
which has been closed for more than
forty years. rhe shutters are up, and
they are covered thickly with dust,
while through the chinks can be seen
the blinds, also thick with dust, and
Wondering away with age. OF course
it has history. Many years ago, u
certain nobleman was engaged to be
married, the day was fixed, the we'd
ding morning arrived, the breakfast
was laid out in that spacious and hand
some room. the bridegroom was ready
to proceed to church, when 1t was dis
covered that the bride was missing; n
note in her handwriting was found ads
dressed to the bridegroom, briefly in-
forming him that she had eloped that
morning with his best man, n gay cap
tain of dragons. The disappointed
bridegroom quietly went alone to the
room in which the wedding breakfast
was laid out, with his own hands put
up the shutters and drew the blinds,
locked the door and took the key. He
gave orders that the door should be
nailed up and barred with padlocked
bar, aud no one should enter the room
again. When the house was let, 1t
was stipulated that the room in ques-
ton should remain untouched. The
nobleman died some years afterward,
but the room has never been entered
since he closed it, aud there are the
"wedding meats" Wondering silently
away, and the ornaments crumbling
into dust in the funeral gloom.

MISCELLANY.

A reporter being called TO account
for the statement that a certain
meeting twas large and respect
able one" when only one other per-
son besides himself was present,
insisted that his report was literally
true; for, said he, II was large and
the other man was respectable"

clothes, he will get through the
winter quite comfortably.

Druing the time when Clayton
was ruler of Arkansas, all justices
of the peace had to be appointed by
His Excelency. One old negro
who thought he knew enough to
discharge the duties of tho office
called on the Governor to be exam

Several questions were given him,
all of which he managed very well.
But when asked "What would you
do in a case where man had com
mitted suicide ?" "What would |
do?" said the negro. "Wcll, sab,
in q case like dat, de very least |
could do, sab, would be to make

to lie on the left side; sometimes
the pain is felt under the shoulder

times mistaken for rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected
with loss of appetite and sickness;
the bowels in general are costivc,

panied with a dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
considerable loss OF memory, &C
companied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. A
slight, dry cough is sometimes an at
tcndant. The patient complains of
WEAKNESS and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning.

ton OF the skinj his spirits are low,
and although he is satisfied that exer,

trusts every remedy. Several OF the
