THE DOLPHIN CoNTRovERsy.-The Dolphin
controversy, as stated in yesterdays GAZETTE has
been settled by al agreement between the govern
ment and John Reach, her builder. The latter or
his representatives agrees to bring suit for the
sums due for her completion, the matter to be ad-
Indicated as soon as possible and tho courts to de
eide whether by the terms Of the contract the
government is compelled to accept the ship, and
also if it is compelled to pay for the extra work
done on her under orders issued from time to
time from the department. The suit will. OF
course, involve the question whether tho Dol
phin answers the requirements of the contract.
Tho government agrees that, should the court de-
tcrmine that the United States has lien on the
vessel, or should. any money judgment be given,
the contract price of the Dolphin, together with
any amounts covered by orders issued by the Sec
rotary Of the Navy for alterations, shall be deem
cd the price of the ship, and forced sale OF tho
vessel will thus be avoided. Thesureties of Roach
are not deemed to have any right of action. The
only other change that So 900 is to be retained
from moneys coming due from other transactions

was serenaded in Elmira last night. The
Governor was greeted with cheers, and
made speech, in the course of which be
said: "Our victory means that the great
State of New York is democratic State
under any and all circumstances. It means
that the independent voters of our State are
not controlled by setf-appointed leaders or
hypocrtical newspapers. 1t means that
these independent voters have abandoned
the party of hypocrisy, and shall, and have
effected permanent alliance with the dem.
ocratic party in the interest of reform and
good government. It means that the, peo-
pic propose to sustain the hands of a demo-
cratic president, but not by putting his op.
ponents in power. 1t means that the peo-
pie are weary of sectional strife, and have
no sympathy with a party that seeks to OBJ.
tain power by keeping alive dying embers of
the civil war"

GENERAL ArCLELLAN's RoMANcE.-A

GENERAL AICLELLAN'S ROMANCE q
very interesting story was told about year
ago about McCellan's first meeting WIN MS
wife, says the Cleveland Leader. he mar
ried her, you know, in 1860 and the reiatlons
of the two during the past quarter OF ISL
fury have been the happiest. Mrs. McSiei-
Ian ccompanied her husband everywhere
and was a help.meet in the true sense OF tne
word She was very proud OF her nusoano
and was very sensitive to any rldicule OF
him. He met her in church in Baltimore
in 1860, one cold Sunday morning. he
was then travelling through the United
States on health tour and had reached
Baltimore Saturday night. The next morn.
ing he left the hotel and went to the
nearest church. The usher took him to the
front and seated him in a pew which was
already occupied by very handsome young
lady. The sermon was prosy, and Mr.. Nc
Clellan devoted himself to casting shy
chances to his seat mate. He concluded
that she was fair. As he caught fuller
view Of her he decided she was beautiful,
and when at last he saw her features and
her eyes looked into his he felt that he had
met his fate AS they passed out of the pew
the young lady blushed under McClellan's
admiring gaze. He followed her home and
found that she lived in one of the hand
soonest houses of the city. On inquiry he
found that this house was owned by General
R. B. Marcy, the father of one of his school
mates at West Point. Mcclellan at once
called upon young Marcy and through him
obtained an introduction to Marcy's sister,
Ellen. He began to pay her attentions and
found upon acquaintance that she improved.
His love was reciprocated. They were en-
gagged, and in May, 1860, they were married.
