Collins and two others. He departed unOb-

Marrying her ColOred Waiter.

A New York correspondent tells the
following: Five years ago last July the
wife of a well-to-do provision dealer
while out in Central Park, accompanied
by little daughter, left the carriage
near the mall, and started off to enjoy the
shady walks of the beautiful park. Little
May gamboled upon the green sward and
peered into the hidden retreats, while her
mother occupied a seat on one of the
benches. Unnoticed by the mother, the
little girl strayed out into the carriage
way, which was lined with fast teams. A
piercing scream fell upon the mothers
ear, and springing up she was Mortified
to see little May right in front of dou-
bic team, whose driver was vainly drawing
the rein to save the child. At the very
moment when she expected to seen her
little treasure crushed or killed, color
ed liveried servant sprang from a carriage
seized the child, and hurled it beyond
the reach of the horses, was knocked
down, himself run over and severely in
iured. The gratitude of the mother for
the salvation of her child found vent in a
profusion of thanks. With her costly
embroidered handkerchief she stroked
and wiped the blood from the wounds of
the gallant mulatto, and after ascertain
ing his name requested him to call at her
house and receive the thanks of her hus-
band The lackey did call, and received
a substantial present for his bravery, and
was dismissed with the admonition that
if he lost his situation,to apply to Mr.. -
Two years passed, and adversely robbed
the provision dealer of the greater part
of his wealth and he became a bankrupt.
Six months later little Mays father died,
leaving his family, consisting of Mrs.
- and little May, only few thousand
dollars with which to face the vicissitudes
of life. The widow, who was still young,
opened a fashionable boarding house,
which she had furnished with the rem
nant of her late husbands estate, and
eked out a respectable subsistence. A
few months ago the mulatto presented
himself at the residence, reported that he
was out of employment and was at once
installed in the house as waiter and man
of-all-wo1k. But the most remarkable
part of the romance is that the fair
widow became enamored of the comely
charms of Henry, spent much of her time
in his society, and finally, in less than SIX
months after he entered her he use, they
were married by a New Jersey justice
Henry is still the modest waiter and pur-
chasing agent of the house, none of the
boarders suspecting the new relations
between the couple. 1t was only when
the Justice called at the house few days
ago to see an acquaintance, and recog-
nized them as the parties he had mar
ried, that their well-kept secret leaked
out. The only reference to the matter in
the city papers was a little paragraph
that a lady living in a fashionable quarter
uptown married a colored man, and by
means of staining materials was endeav-
oring to make her complexion conform to
that Of her new lord and master.

A curious incident occurred at mar
riage at ST. Mary's Parish Church here
this morning. A French couple from
Calais, having been staying in the town
a sufficient length of time TO have the
banns published in this church, came up
this morning to be married, and the
ceremony proceeded satisfactorily until
the joining of hands and putting on of
the ring, when it was discovered that the
Frenchman had no ring. There was an
awkward pause. No one in the COM
pany could lend a ring for the occasion.
Whereupon the officiating clergyman
REV Mr.. Finley sent the verger for the
church-door key, the eye of which in
strument has been used in other places
in similar emergencies. I. was found,
however, that the eye was not sufficiently
large to admit the brides finger. Tie
bridegroom searched his pockets again,
and brought out bunch Of keys attach
ed to 4 ring. This ring, with its APP
pendages, was placed on the book, from
thence it was transferred 10 the brides
finger, and, with the steel ring of the
bunch of keys, the ceremony was duly
completed. Cor. London TEE

A Petrified Rosebud.

The Portland OregoHidn, contains this
story; Judge f. G. Bronaugh has at
tached to his watch chain little amulet
or charm, which, aside from It's peculiar
history, is very pretty in itself. 1t is
nothing more or less than petrifed rose
bud. During the war, young nephew
of Judge Bronaugh, while in one of the
Southern States, wrote home to lIis moth
er and enclosed in the letter a rosebud.
The letter arrived safely at its destination,
and, after having been perused, was laid
aside with the rosebud in drawer, where
it remained for eight or nine months.
When the drawer was overhauled and
the letter again brought to light, the
rosebud il contained was discovered to
be petrifed. The judges aunt recently
sent the stone to him at this place, and
he placed it in the hands of jeweler for
the purpose of having il fitted to carry
on his watch chain. The petrifieation is
so very hard that while trying to drill
hole in it two or three tools were broken
before the object was accomplished. Ii
is perfect rosebud, and so well pre-
served that the finest fibers are TO seen.
What peculiarities of air, earth, or water
could have changed the tender rosebud
into hard, almost diamond-like sub
stance in the short space Of nine months
is mystery.

A Romance of the Cars Sister.

From St. Petersburg Letter.
On little frequented street of st. Pc
tersbuTg, there stands glOomy-looking
building, large, bu of severe style of
architecture and painted in sombre colors.
This is the Leuchtenberg palace, name
suggestive of dark page in the history
of the imperial family of Russia. Many
readers will yet remember the somewhat
romantic story of the marriage of the
Car Nicholas favorite daughter to a
dashing young German officer. The Duke
of Leuchtenberg was handsome but com
paratiyely poor and obscure, and it is said
that the hayward Princess made The first
advance, and even that the stern Emper-
or consented to the marriage only to avoid
scandal. At any rate romance and roy
atty do not seem to agree we'll, and the
union turned out badly. The Duchess
tired of her former idol, gay and dash
ing but at the same time scholarly aud
thoroughly honorable German, and be-
gan to form liaisons, the most notorious
of which was with Count Strogonotf.
After life of mortified seclusion and
constant study, the Duke died, refusing
TO recognize on his death-bed the last two
children borne by the Princess. Immed-
lately after his demise the latter was
forced tomarry Strogonoff, and was bsn-
ished from Russia. She took up her
abode in Paris, where she died few
years ago. The children of the union
have been somewhat under cloud, and
several matches proposed for the very ac-
complished daughter were broken off for
some unexplained reasons. The Oldest
son-the young Duke of Leuchtenberg-
has now joined the army of the Danube,
and may accomplish something in the
field that will place renewed lustre on
his fathers name, and bridge the gulf
that separated him and his sister from
the remainder Of the family.
