WELDLNO I do not mean by the singular heading of my article that falling in love with an idiot is at all all unusual occurrence; and I do not mean to hint some degree of idiocy is not always an attendant upon one of the parties in the (Taira de cotter; nor Will I contradict the cynic who said that all people in love are idiots. I only mean to state a few facts, some of which are well known to people hereaway: Love is a species of insanity none the less potent because it is voluntarily as mulled. We have known men of fair tit tainments, and posscsing good strong sense, who cut capers when under the influence of the naked god, which caused tlaljir• friends to stare. We have seen men, as'straight as an arrow, and as fair as ; Caucasian blood could make them, bend at the shrine of some dingy divinity, as crooked in temper and dark in complex ion as an Ethiop's ear; and we have seen one of Pennsylvania'a fairest daughters leave the refined circles of literary, scien tific and amiable gentlemen, for the arms of a gangling country schoolmaster, too confused to speak, and too ignorant to write his attachment. In vain did papa scowl and maitima cry; in vain Aid law yers sneer and clergymen pray; the belle saw only beauty in Ilk warty face, grace in his ill-jointed limbs, and wisdom in the head of Mr. Birch—and marry Birch she would, and did, in spite of the world, the tleAl, and, as the lady said, "in spite of the devil.— Yet we nni't admit that the superior 'taste and love of congruity which distin guishes the fairer sex, induces them to rush with lees haste into these sicsa/iances than mem - With woman love is a delicate and pretty sentiment, which she will shift, as the shifts the dowers in her, bonnet, according to the varying seasons and necessities of her condition; with men the master passion becomes a principle. But I am getting prosy, and must give the details of my story. lu the autumn of the year 1815, the Staid inhabitants of the county town of Fayette county, in this State, were set to gossiping by the arrival of a young lawyer named S—, who announcctl his inten- tiou of settling in that towu. A fine per son, genial manners, great industry, and more than ordinary talents, set off and graced by singular modesty, made S— highly acceptable to the villagers.- Hav ing influential relatives in Washington, Harrisburg and Philadelphia, his com- pany was much sought after; but like a safe youth, he buried himself in the duties of his office, apparently careless about the attractions of the society of, men or MEM In one of his visits to Washington, he, one fine afternoon in April, left the pol ished circles who formed little eddies about the 'elegant wife of President Madi son, and turned the head of the horse upon Which he rode towards the Potomac. Passing the battle-ground of Bladensburg, he came, after a ride of an hour to the end of the little bridge made so famous by the attack and success of the Englislk Ad miral Cockburn. The day was sultry, and stopping before the door of rather a tasteful cottage, he flung the bridle over the fence, and walked down the little path to a well which stood in the yard. Looking over the house, nothing couhl be seen except a pair of deep blue eyes, which peered from an-upper story window curi ously down upon him, seeming to watch his motions with great interest. Looking at her more intently, he beheld the fair round face of a very pretty girl of about seventeen summers. She had light hair, regular features, and although more than usually prepossessing, the lawyer might have gone away, as he came, heart free, if it had not been for something in the blonde's deep blue eyes which made his heart bleed, "Young lady," said he, you assist me in getting something from which to drink? This well is deep, and if I shonid drown myself in attempting to descend for it, it will not add to the attractions of e Watc r." The head disappearet4rom the window, and in a minute tbe.plutrip figure of the girl appeared at a side dobr with a cup, and placing it in the hand of the barrister, he put his lips to the edge of the vessel, and peering over the rim at the beautiful girl, he drank a long draught. If lie had been impressed before, now, when her figure was displayed in all its captivating graces, his heart beat more loudly than ever. Every bullet had its billet. Young S— had passed unhurt through whole batteries of bright oyes at Washington, to be wounded beyond help by an accidental shot from the eyes of a country lass •at a well! ' The girl walked rapidly into the house, leaving 3ir. S— at the well, who mount ed his horse and attempted flight. He rode a few steps and returned. The same - tee at the window; the same blue oyes, seeming to watch him with curious in terest. • "Young lady will you have the kindness to inform me of the name of the gentle man who lives in this house?" • A long, curious look from the young girl, and no answer. am a respectable gentleman. My name is S—, and I ask the name, inno cently and honestly." - Again no answer, 'and again the lawyer 'turned his horie's head away from the cottage, muttering, "confound it! I feel very unhappy:" The night was a long one, and the next day he mounted his beast, and with welch ers for his respectability, presented hinuw.lf again at the fineer, determined to mit; himself at the feet . of the girl, and know his fate. Throwing himself from the sad. dle, he walked boldly up to the door, and knocked, a faded gentleman appeare and, in grave and dignified tones, asked his business. Upon placing the letters in bds hand, the host asked our visitor into a •sitting room, furnished ni s eee elegantly than the outward appearance of the house would seem to indicate, and asked his business.

He looked ten years older. The sense of an unearthly trust and., responsibility was cotisuming him. When the ceremony was over, the bridegroom took his wife in his strong arms, as a father would take a 'child, and wrapping his cloak about her tender ly, placed her in the carriage. Ilia stooped over her and imprinted one kiss Upon liar forehead. "It is the first," said he "and it will be the. last!" He had loved but once, and it waathe last. The traveler who loiters for an hour in the quaint old town of Fayette, may see the remains of an old garden at the rear of one of the comfortable houses, and he may see the slight bars which surround a pretty window at the rear. Here, sur rounded by all that money and love could buy, lived, for forty years, the child wife of a brilliant lawyer—the wife of a man who was appointed District Attorney by Presi dent Monroe, and who, from 1821 to 1827, from 1831 to 1815 and from 1843 to 1847 eight terms in all —served as Represenativo in Congress of the .I.7nited States. Strange thaeln his strong, honest heart, at a time of life when passion and desire hold the ascendency, that this man should devote his fine mind, his money, his all, to the care of a beautiful idiot. Ile secured the attention of two Christian ladies, (one of them an old flame of his), and nothing that could add to the co m tbrt of the singular wife was withheld. During its labors es a statesman, the husband always hastened back from Washington, his hands full of toys and trinkets, and would sit upon the grass and amuse her. Some years ago the child wife—now grown old and gray, but still pleasant to look upon—was carried from hedpome to the place where the grass grows in the villege church yard; and often, at even tide, the villagers see an old man, with stooping figure and furrowed face, bend ing his steps toward the little church in the calm summer evening and arranging with his hands the dowers which Woo* over the graverfkhe W/TE. As a "war anecdote," how is this? Dur ing the 'troubles' a young eixiiederate miss was passing through one of the hospitals, when it was remarked that a prisoner, a lieutenant, had died that inot34g. 'Oh, where is lie? Let rpe see himl Lgt mo kiss him for his mother! exclaimed the maiden. The attendant led her into an adjoining ' ward, when, diseouring Lieutenant 11—, of the Fifth Kansas, lying rase asleep on his hospital couch, and thinking to have a little fun, he pointed him out to the girl. She sprang forward, and bending over him said: 'Oh, you dear lieutenant, let me lasiyou for your mother!'

The father bowed his head, and looked sad. "Mr. he mild, at length, l*clo you know thit my child has not a pedny in the world?" "I want to marry the girl herself, not for her money," said the lawyer. • "Do you know," said the sire, "that my daughter's maters grandparent was hanged during the Revolution?" "Why do you tell me of her grandfath er?" said the lawyer, angrily. "I love the girl, and would marry her If all her. grandparents had been "haw since the tioedl2' Now there was a shade of pain, like the flit °Pa disturbing cloud over the face ot l / 4 .

Twice he placed his hand on the red spot on hid sad face, he sighed deeply, and, alter an effort, he looked long and solemnly in the eyes of his visitor, and in sohimu tones remarked: - Your language, your letter, and .y.4n d earnestness, satisfy me that I am address ing a gentleman. I dare not treat your honest love rudely." The old gentleman paused. and again the solemn flashes of sadness came over his face, while ho looked as if he were surveying the long, .shad , my past. "I have not always, young man, bejif buried as you see me, in this remotophsce. I loved once, and the woman I loved now wears the crown of martyrdom. At the bidding of her Lord, she sacrificed the luxuries of her elegant Philadelphia home to follow the footsteps of a poor priest, who followed his Master. And in the labors and the loneliness of this place, she laid her life on. the altar of sacrifice, Way: ,! iug n o with, a desolate hart and this girl whom you love.

The lover followed his future father-in- a law up a flight orstairs. "Look at your bride," said he pointing to a figure on the floor.

The lawyer ap proached the girl, and with the fainiliarity. which sincere love only can give, rover end; lifted the mass of beautful but senseless beauty upon a chair, and placing his hand upon her forehead, looked long and intently down upon her blue eyes, Alas! she returned one look, as men look at things they do not understand. It was all too true. The barrister was looking at vacuity. For a moment the lawyer sighed, as strong men sigh but once in their livers. "I wish to speak with you'd moment alone," said ' .
