Mss Cochran became acquainted with o

p pan and she fell desperately in love with
him This feeling was mutual. and, during
tno interviews the young man related
t ths condition ofthings at his fathers house.
Th. family was in the hands of cruel
nnsr.owper who not only owned the small
house ho in which they lived, but was also pro
,u ,,.ia,or of the mills in which the father, son,
and anI brother earned their scanty pittance.-
nn ,cconnt of some difficulty which had oc-
o,,rrad some Years before, this man, whose
,,,ms was Steinmann, cherished deadly
h,trsd against the Bradenburg family. SO
I"pn was this hatred that he would do every
thiny in his power to keep them down, al
tbouyb some of the greatest improvements
in his mill had been made by theelder Bran
dan,,ry He so exercised his authority that
thrv were kept in poverty, and every effort
they made to better ther fortune was oyer
,nrHwn by the relentless la )d-Owner. At
last Charles, the eldest son, determined to
come to America, and try to do something
TO help himself and family in this country.
Such was the state of affairs when the
vouno American lady knew him first ard
jovpd him, Two months after they plighted
ther trotb, and Brandenburg sailed for
America, Soon after Miss Cochran returned
TO Boston. A correspondence was kept up
for over q year following their separation
Then the Young German, who had been
working in New York and Philadelphia, set
out for the West, and the letters came less
frequently, and finally there were none at
all. During all this time the young lady,
who was pretty and accomplished enough
to have won the heart of score OF ad-
mirers, even in rigid, upright old Boston,re-
rnaned true to her first love. When she
heard no moro of her lover, she was almost
crazy. and as the time grew on her suspense
became almost insupportable. AT last,
about two weeks ago, she learned through
a roundabout way that the object OF her af
lectiou WAS in Indianapolis. Slender as the
hone was she determined to ascertain the
truth of the report. So she and her mother
left Boston for Indianapolis.
Miss Cochran said that she was bound to
find her lover, aud if he cherished thesamt
sentiments he did two years ago, when they
last met, and seven months ago, when she
received her last letter, there would be
marriage, and she laughingly invited he'
interviewer to be present-an invitation he
accepted at once. Assisting the perseverine
damsel and her mother on the train, anc
wishing them success, the reporter watched
the westward bound train roll away with 6
sincere hope that she might rot be disap-
pointed in her search.
The wish was gratifed, and the young
couple who loved each other devotedly arr
now united for life, as the following, from
the indianapolis "Journal" " Of the 9th
