How the Old Love Fri
unaphed.
Scranton (Pa.) Republican.

In the Nineteen tn Ward lives a
good and honest citizen who is bless
ed, among other things, with a fam
lily of four bright girls. About six
years ago one OF them was courted
by a promising young man, the son
of a neighbor. The young nan was
moderately suggestive in his atten-
tions for about four years. Then he
went West, and the courtship was
carried on by the slow and unsatis-
factory medium of the mails. The
parents of the maiden began to
think that the young man who went
West was too slow and entirely in
definite. SO a match was arranged
between the neglected lass and a
well-to-do merchant Of Moosic.
Under his courtship affairs progress
ed swimmingly, and last Wednes-
day was arranged for the wedding,
the trosseau was purchased, the ar
rangements all made, and the pros
poets of a happy time were delight
fully imminent. Moreover the Moo
sic young man had secured a home
for his ~expectant bride, and had it
nicely furnished. Meantime, the
lover in the West was apprised of
the condition of things here, and
hurried to Scranton. He saw the
young lady, and so ardently did he
press his suit upon the basis of a
prior claim that he induced her to
become his bride, and they were wed
at the house of a relative of the
groom. Next day the Moosic young
man came on to claim his bride, and
learned to his great chagrin that she
was another's. Justly indignant at
this treatment, he ~reproached the
father. The father, of course, was
a cold comforter, but, pointing to
his three remaining daughters, who
sat in the room, he said: "There are
three others of my daughters; you
can take your pick. This is the best
l can do" The Moosic young man
saw the force of his prospective faith
er-in-law's remark, and taking him
at his word, selected the youngest Of
the three, and they were wed.

A Singular Story.
Froma retired Physicians Lette r tc
the London Telegraph.

bbO ANpA&Oh ~
About forty years ago, l was call
ed upon to consult respecting the
case of a certain John Crawford,
who lived in one of the side streets
of Crawford street, M~arylebone.
Subsequently attended this patient
for a month or more, he being a suf-
ferer from a bronchial malady,
which from my first introduction to
him was regarded as hopeless. This
Crawford was a scripture-rSader in
the employment of a missionary Sc
ciety, and, it is unnecessary to add
was a man Of small means. With
him were his wife, daughter and
son, a lad of fifteen or sixteen, with
a countenance indicating tenacity
and firmness of will. In my atten-
dance at the bedside Of my patient
this boy was usually present listen
ing with close attention and evident
interest to our talk. Crawford was
very communicative respecting a
pedigree and three or four large
parchments, which he seldom omit
ed to bring forth while l remained
with him. At that time the Earl
dom of Crawford and Balcarres was
in allegiance. 1t vas one of the dor
mant peerages of Scotland which
not infrequently give work to the
House of Lords; and a claimant to
the title and estate was reported to
be gathering documentary evidence
wherewith to enforce his plea. |
advised Crowford to relinguish the
parchments, if, as he repeatedly told
us, Lord Lindsay was buying up all
such writings. But the invariable
reply was: 81 am John Crawford,
of Balcarres, with as good a right to
this peerage as any man living. If
/ were not so poor and so incapaci-
tated by illness, | should myself
prosecute the claim. Though l a
not do this, l shall, for the sake of
this boy here pointing to his son
retain these documents whatever
price may be offered for them" The
claim had not then been brought be-
fore the House of Lords, nor was it
publicly heard oftill some time after
the death of this John Crawford.
One remarkable expression, which
fixed itself upon my memory from
the e%arnestness with which it was
repeated by Crawford, Vas: LET
him die whenever he may, he will
not rest in his grave"
The boy, who heard these words
again and again, and who, as | have
said, was an attentive and interest
ed listener, is now, if he be in exist
ence, a man of fve-and-ffty. l
have not the smallest idea of his ca
reer, having entirely lost sight of
him when his father died. But the
circumstances are as VlVldly impress
ed on my memory, as if they were
fresh and recent. OF course | am
only theorizing when l say that the
lad was, by appearance of physiog-
nomy, just one of those determined
plodders common enough in d
Northern race who, setting them.
selves to,a difficult end, rarely fail to
reach it. He may be at this time a
prosperous merchant, but if this be
only vague speculation, it is more to
the point to say that those parch-
ments are probably in existence
somewhere, and that if they can be
discovered and authenticated, they
may possibly aid in solving the pain
full mystery.

MINING IN GEoRGIA.-The gold regions
of South Carolina and Georgia are very
similar to the auriferous section of North
Carolina. The ore is easily mined, there
is plenty of water, so that the ore is al
ways treated in the first place by hydraulics,
and is then carried to stamp. Georgia,
however, surpasses its neighbor in gold
mining, as in every other branch of indus
try in which they are competitors. Mining
is now systematic and more thorough. 1t
has always been very difficult to obtain
accurate returns of the yield of any of the
Southern mines, but it has been carefully
estimated that the annual yield of gold in
Georgia is Sl2l, $50, and in South Caro-
lima $40. .0OO In Georgia gold has been
found in sixteen counties, and Colonel
Avery, the author of the recently pub
lished history of Georgia, has made the
following estimate of the mining property
owned and worked in the State "There
are now in Georgia fifty gold mines with
500 stamps, the machinery worth $500, 600 !;
one copper mine, $50, 1000; one sulphuric
acid factory, 5000, GOO; one soapstone
mill, 10000; one asbestos mine, SIC. 900 |;
one manganese mill, 100000 eighteen
iron furnaces, 81. 900, GOO; one lead mine,
81, 900, 600; one corundum mine, $4,000 !;
one mica mire, S., 600 lime kilns, $50, 600 !;
one ferro-manganesef furnace, $40. .000 This
aggregates 81, 900, 600 of mineral property. !"
