residing III one of the fashionable
parts of London-viz, Al Emperor's
Gate, South Kensington-aud are
shortly to be married TO gentlemen
of title and fortune. Two or three
years ago Mrs. Woodruff was engage
ed to give fifty lectures, commencing
in London Mt st. James Hall. She
appeared for ten nights, but was
suddenly taken i'll, and by her doc
ters advised TO discontinue; but the
secret is. the lady happened to have
among her listeners Il gentleman of
title and fortune, who was fascinated
by the eloquence and magnetism of
the fair Victoria, and in due time
proposed, was accepted, and SO short
ly she will share his wealth, estates
and title. Tie witty Jennie c. Cla-
fin is also about doing the same
thing, for she has been lucky enough
to captivate a scion of the British
nobility. So, very soon the Ken
sington Church bells will ring out
their merry peal and the "Court
Journal announce among its fash
ionable marliees the name IF these
ladies to gentlemen Of rank and for
tune.
