Romantic story From Troy.

The following very romantic story
/ is but the substance of what happened
in our own city masy years ago. The
characters that appear as principals
have passed away, but their descendants
yet live among US and occupy honor
able positions in society. Two young
men who had passed through college
and graduated with honor, studying
medicine They were fast friends and
were almost inseparable. They entered
society together and were we'll received
in the best houses. They were to-
gether one evening at q reception in
one of the wealthiest mansions of the
city, when q new star appeared in the
person Of niece Of the hostess, who
had come from Massachusetts,. She
was handsome, and reports agree in
saying she was as good as she was
pretty.-Both of the medical students
were smitten, and for the first time in
their lives feeling of estrangement
came between them. The natures of
the two young men were essentially
different. One was as frank and open
as the day, while the other was tacti,
| turn and reserved. Both paid court
to the lady. but she soon manifested a
choice for the more frank character
and they became engaged The defeat
ed suitor seemed to bear his disap-
pointment resignedly. In time the
lady went home, and the successful
suitor went abroad to complete his
studies. While absent letters were
received by the young girl concerning
her lover, which created the feeling
that he was false to her, and finally,
one came in his own hand writing
bidding her farewell, and stating that
he was to be married to lady of rank.
This proved almost death blow to
the girl, but she soon rallied and
sought in every way to conceal the ira
ces of her grief. The defeated suitor
was at hand aud again proffered his
homage, and finally, in fit of pique,
she married him. Had this been the
final of the story there would be no
romance. 1t was not long after the
wedding before the lover turned. He
could not be made to believe that the
one he loved was false by nature. He
change, and, like a sensible man he
commenced the task of unraveling the
mystery. After much trouble, he OBJ
tained q interview with the wife in
the absence of her husband, and as
answer to his letter of renunciation.
She was happier than she had been
in many days when she learned that the
letter was forgery, and that the lover
had always been true to her. She at
once renounced her husband, and soon
opportunity offered and she procured
divorce, and was united to her first
and only love. The husband and wife
settled down in this city, and here he
enjoyed long and successful career,
and when be died, full of years and
honors, he was surrounded by his wife
and family. The false friend who, by
his wicked Vaccinations, had wrought
so much sorrow, removed to lansing
burg, where he became physician OF
note. He afterwards remarked, and
his posterity to day occupy honored
positions in the State. In two family
Bibles in this city the marriages are
recorded among the family archives.

Kentucky board of Health.
The Kentucky State Board of Health
held a meeting at Frankfort, one day
last week, at which it was determined
to establish a quarantine at Guthrie
the junction of the St. Louis and South
eastern and the Louisville and Memphis
roads. The ConrierrJomRal says, al
so, that quarantine is to be establish
ed below Hickman, on the river, but
the resolution adopted by the State
Board only applies to Guthrie. If
there is anything in quarantine, it oc
ours to US that station on the river
below Hickman, is of absolute import
ance, unless the State Board intend 10
surrender this portion of the State to
the common foe, On the question of
quarantine, it appears that the Board
was unanimously of the opinion that
such measure was of great value. In
fact, the medical profession generally,
and public sentiment, with some prom.
inent exceptions, recognize quarantine
as all important. The State Board is
crippled for want of money, for want
OF power, &C., &C., but, all things con-
sidered, they are no doubt doing the
very best in their power.

Educational Department.
TEACmER,S COLUMN.

Once more, let me beg the teachers
of Fulton county to take an interest
in the Teachers Column. One teacher
should be as much Interested In this
matter as another. Surely every teach
er in the county can give his or her
method of teaching some branch. II
you are a young teacher, and have not
enjoyed many years experience as a
teacher, you certainly have some ideas
worth communicating TO your fellow
teachers. Every teacher says he learns
something from other teachers at the
County Institute. Those who have
been so fortunate as to attend the State
Teachers Association are loud in their
praise of what they have learned. But,
through the kindness of Mr.. Warren,
we have an opportunity to hear and
heard. toteaeh and he taught. every
week, through the columns of the
COURIER. Do the teachers of Fulton
county fully appreciate this matter
Just suppose we call for an old fash
iOned experience meeting. We had
quite lively time two years ago dis
cussing the methods of teaching the
alphabet. Let US call on every teach
er in the county to give his or her ex'
perience in teaching \, B, c. re-
gard this the most important matter
for discussion that can come before any
body of teachers. | am aware of the
fact tLat it is usually overlooked and
called little matter, but let me say
once more | regard this the most i'm
portant of all. However, if you re
gard it a small matter, select some part
&C the teachers work aud give US your
experience in that department. Two
years ago you adopted the COURIER as
your county organ. Outside of school
reports l do not think the teachers OF
the county have written two columns
of educational matter in the two years
Now, that We have put our hands to
the plow, let Us not look back.
