A Romance of Divorce.
From the Syracuse Courier.

About the lst of January there
appeared in the New York Her.
aid an advertisement inquirine
for the address of "the daughter
Of the late Horace Mech" 10
whom, il stated, the late VIM. c..
Glynn Of Boston he'd, by will, left
fortune of $4,000. application
to be made to Mr.. Choate, Tre-
mont street, Boston.
Mr.. Horace Nee ch was many
years ago a well-known resident Of
Albany. William C. Glynn was
at the same time--perhaps quar-
ter Of a century ago-a teacher
Of music in that city. Among
his pupils was Miss - Mech,
daughter OF the aforesaid Glynn
Tell in love with the young lady,
and she,presumably, him, and
they were married. The parents
were bitterly opposed to the match,
and succeeded, in few months,
in persuading their daughter to
leave him. A divorce followed
Glynn removed to Boston, and
was lost to sight His divorced
wife soon married q young gentle
man in Rochester, who died not
long afterward in the South. The
widow married, for the third time,
gentleman in Buffalo. He also.
died, leaving the widow with one
daughter, now grown up, married,
and herself a mother.
The widow, in reduced circm-
, stances, was living with sister
on Staten Island, when some Al
bany friends, seeing by chance the
advertisement, acquainted ber
with It's contents. She at once
took measures to secure the bon
ANA left her by her first love. 1t
seems that Giynn, after removing
to Boston, made fortune in the
music business. Time, however,
nor circumstances. made him for
get the "the girl he left behind
him, although she had thrice
married, and had become grand
mother since his eyes had beheld

The cashier sprang to the safe

The cashier sprang to the safe
again, and the next moment a
cry of exultation parted his lips.
The doors opened! Amy leap
ed TO his side. '.Let me to the
papers! / know the corners of
the safe as well as / know my
Shakespeare" cried Cashier Mer-
edith pushing her back.
Amy stood behind him breath
less, but smiling.
"Here they are!' said the
cashier rising, and the papers
which he held in his hand were
suddenly snatched away.
"I'll save him!" cried the
girl, and before the man could
restrain her she was bounding
toward the door.
Across the street she fiew,the
papers in one hand and some
thing that gllttered in the star
light in the other.
"Make way!" she cried, as
she struck the steps that led to
the battered portals. 81 can
prove him innocent, and no one
must refuse me audicnce"
She was recognized. and the
sounds of the sledges sud 'enly
grew still. :,
"Let the girl have a chance!
shouted dozen voices as the
members Of the mob fell back,
and permitted Amy to pass to
the front.
"Go on! tits but trick to
gain time!" said a voice; and
the bankers daughter turned
upon the speaker.
Liar! she cried. you will
swallow your cowaadly word-
when my dead father speaks for
the man in yonder CELL"
Orrin Walters heard the voice
and started. He had listened tc
the blows and curses of the mot
unmoved, but the voice of the
woman beloved made him spring
to the door of his cell.
With hammers lowered, the
ring-leaders Of the mob formed
circle around the brave girl
and the tallow-dips formed the
weird light for the tableau.
"The safe Is openp Amy said
to the mob. "These are the pa
pers referred to in the document
found in my fathers room. They
are not forgeries. Cashier Mere
dith took them from the safe witt
his own hands! As yet l know
not what they contain; but yor
shall know" That fair girlseem.
ed to exert a powerful influence
over the maddened men.
They listened to the reading
of the first paper, and thel
SUNK from the Jail convinced
that Jasper Trentham, the banl
president, was a suicide.
1t was an hour of thanksgiv
ing for the lovers and cashier
The sledges returned to tht
anvils, the mob dispersed, anc
Amy thanked God that the MAI
whom she loved was not a mur

its good.
