The BACHELOR PRESIDENT. He fell
in love with the daughter of Rot ert
Coleman, then a rich iron master, and
the founder OF the Coleman families OF
Lebanon and Lancaster counties. The
Colemans had aD antlpathy to the young
lawyer and rising politician, opposing an
alliance through marriage. Miss Anna
Coleman entertained different views on
the subject. She received her admirer
with favor. but in doing so had to con
front the bitter opposition Of her family
AT chs time Mr.. Buchanan represented
Lancaster county in the Legislature. Be
tween Miss Coleman and a Miss Oil, OF
Lancaster, there was a close intimacy.
The latter, who secretly dislIked Mr..
Buchanan, was ready and artful enough
for any intrigue to estrange the lovers.
Knowing that MIR. Buchanan would ar
rive from Harrisburg on a certain eve
ming, Miss Oil banteringly told Miss Z
that he would call on her first, when he
reached Lancaster. This was regarded
as preposterous by Miss c., who, never
theless, accepted the banter and the mat
ter SO rested. That evening Miss D.
made it a point to be zeal the office when
the stage stopped on its arrival from
Harrisburg, IA the moment MIR. IS.
emerged she seized his arm, insisting
that he must accompany her home, pro-
testing that she had an important COM
munication to make to him. Refusal
was of no avail to a brilliant young wo-
man, impelled by a subtle motive to
achieve success in her adventure. And
the young statesman was literally dragged
irto the meshes prepared for him by his
artful deceiver. He went with the lady,
and his going forever sealed his loneli
ness. Miss Oil kept MIR. Buchanan at
her home until an hour too late for him
to call at the Coleman mansion, and she
managed to let her friend, Miss e know
where he was. At a proper hour the
next day Mr.. Buchanan called on Miss
e.. to be coldly told that she never again
desired to see him, and to have the door
rude'y closed to him. That day Miss G s
brother hurried her to Philadelphia by
private convey ance Once out of Lam
caster, the young lady repented her rude
desS ami her rashness overcome by re-
morse for what she had done, as the sto-
ry always run, she resorted to poison
and thus in what was a heartless decep
ton, a pure love eliminated in a rueful
disaster, which ended the life of one of
the lovers and cast shade of gloom over
the other, as he passed from one high
station to another to tind himself before
he died standing on the top round of the
ladder of fame, from which he could
look with di,dain ON the pei secutors of
his young manhood.

The Assessment Committee met yesterday
and placed the Water Company al 1000
in the Fourth ward of The city, and the City
Railroad Company st 5000 in the Sixth
ward. The reason why the Water Company
was reduced 0,010 was owing to the fact
tina, lis stock was increased forty per cent.
in February, aud the 100000 assessment
was made a month earlier. The German
National Bank wss reduced frsm $500 600 to
SIG, 900, and the First National from $780,
900 to 81 $50. The latter change wss
caused by the assessor, through a mistake,
vsluisg the capital stock at 100000 instead
OF $500 The Manhattan Bank got re-
duction from $4,000 to $4,000, on the
ground that S65.000 Of lis stock is held by
nonresiSeuts. For the same reason the
Planters Insurance Company were given a
reduction, mskiag its assessment S6S, 900 in
stead of $4,000 Il is understood that
both of the reductions last mentioned will be
reconsidered. The Hsnauer, D. Soto, Hope
and Psnola OIL Mills have been cited to APP
pear at meeting of the Assessment Com
mittee tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock to
show cause why their assessments should not
