A pretty romance reached a happy
elimination at Hyde Park, Pa, q few
days ago. Two children Of farmers in
England, he OF poor and she of wealthy
parents, fell In love with each other.
The parents of the girl bitterly opposed
the match, but all efforts to break up
the courtship were unavailing, and as q
last resort the young lady was posted
Of to Scotland, where she was closely
watched, and all communication with
her lover prevented. The latter, bro
ken-hearted and despairing Of over see.
Ing his love again, came to this country.
This was ten months ago. After his
departure the girl was taken home.
Some time after his arrival in this
country the young mar wrote to q for
mer g%overness OF the young lady, who
In this way learned where her lover
was. Without preparation, aud with
the bare means of ~defraying the trip,
she set sail and arrived In New York,
almost penniless, and without q friend
In the great city. Her anxious lover
received Q letter from her, stating that
she had followed him to the shores of
the free. Money was sent to her, and
the noble and plucky woman proceeded
to Hyde Park, where she was united to
the man Of her choice.

most stupendous affections of any wo-
man in the country. Miss Livingston
claims that after an acquaintance Of sew
eral months he engaged himself to
marry her, and that thereafter they as
sociated intimately, but after a time he
ceased to visit her, and then refused to
keep his promise, although she has been
and is ready to marry him. Mr.. Flem-
ing's counsel says his client knows no
such person as the plaintiff named in
the summons, and never promised to
marry any n bearing that name. This
singular fact, however. is explained by
the averment that when Mr.. Fleming
became acquainted with the plaintiff
she was introduced TO him under q diff
ferent name, by which he is said to
have known both herself and her
mother, when they were living uptown
In New York city.

to secure Office for themselves. 1t is
true that in the decentralization wrought

practices are looked upon as perfectly
allowable, but the best class of men, the

uThe germ theory of the nature O

E~The germ theory of the nature of
tubercular consumption, lately devel-
oped by Dr. Koch, government physi.
clan of Berlin, is exciting much inter-
est among physicians and scientists.
The relationship between the germ or
bacillus of consumption and that of
splenic fever has been seized upon by
learned editors, who, because preven-
tive vaccination can be employed
against splenic fever by the use of the
disease germs modified by cultivation,
have Mt nnca iumnaa - 49, ----:---
that consumption a be eradicated or
prevented by a similar process. Inas.
much as there have been we'll authen.
ticated cases of complete recovery from
consumption, followed afterward by a
second fatal attack, the vaccination
plan of treating the disease would
prove deceptive. People will have TO
wait until the doctors can find some.
thing that will kill the bacillus in the
system without killing the patient.
