TWENTY YEARS MARRIED.
Yes, twenty Years have winged their flight,
Since that mysterious word I apoko,
When on a beauteous summer night
I Brat maimed a flowery yoke.
I long had craved the blissful chain,
And cheerfully subscribed the vow:
Perhaps I'd do the same. again ;
Perhaps—though I am oh 'or now.
.
Ah. well do I recall the time
IWhen she. now pensive by my side'
Stooped. in herblushing morning pride)
A tender, vowel, and bsshful bride;, r I ;
1 4 . A n d 1, so prouiroT that dear hand: '
Could scarce ;contain myself for blisS;
I'd bought a tract of fairs land,
I And sealed my : purchase with a - kiss. -.— ...
I For happiness Ike trimmed our sail;
'Sly darling little bride and L;
Hope's breezes blew a pleasant gala,
And gently smiled, the summer sky;
The world seemed mede for her and me,
All bright Wherever we might turn,
1 Our life to be a tranquil Goa—
-1 Sweet Innocence I we'd much to learn.
I
I 'For soon did 'a disturbing breath
Its banetal influence impart,
1 And bitter sorrow, born of death
(Yercast the sunshine of our heart;
i But still as trouble round .us rose.
i Each closer, resider, dung to each,
Blessed with the strength of love's repose,
Enduring all thilt grief could teach.
1 We'd much of joy, though small our Fphore,
f And craved no more extended fame,
Nor children made our dwelling dear--
I'Twas wonderful how feet they Came.
"The more the merrier." we arid,
And in them every wish,was bleat.
A part in our embrace &re staid,
! A mound in Wdodlaud tells the rest.
Those twenty years - Bove left their trace
Upon her brow, then smooth and fair,
And stole, some say, tho.*liching grace
That once her features Used to wear;
Ilut still I see the same kind eyes
Beam on me with a light as true
As when, in love's young paradise,
I first their inspiration knew.
Bis'eftlauctiu.
ESTHER M'DOWELL.
A SINGULAR STORY.
J. F. Meginnis in his history of the
North Branch Valley relates the fol
lowing history'Of a successful imPosi
tion practiced upon the people ofJer
sey Shore, in 1803:
1 About the: yearABo3, a remarkable
Icircumstance transpired at the upper
end of,the-bormigh of Jersey Shore,
j
well'remembered by all the old peo
plc living at that time. 'Pine trees,
lin :considerable numbers were then
standinc , on the spot I now speak of.
An old Dutchman, named .Martin
Reese, had built a cabin near where
the public road crosses the carial, on
the farm now owned by Mark Slona
ker, Esq., - and, Made some improve.
ments. Rising very eariy one frosty
morning in October, he Was surpris•
ed. to find a beautiful female in a state
I of nudity, with her hands tied behind
her back, and a gag over her mouth, I
'standing in froht of his cabithagainst
a tree. He relieved her from her un
;comfortable position as soon as possi
ble, and tendered her the hospitalities
I of his humble cabin. She appeared
to be completely chilled through with I
cold, and could ' scarce speak ' for
j some time. On recovering sufficient
!strength she related that she had
ho.en traveling on horseback from her
father's house in Montreal, to visit an
uncle that resided in Kentucky, in
I. charge of a young nit -named Ben-
)jamin Connett, who was sent express-
ly to attend her. But having a large
! amount.of (mid in her possession, an-,
!evil prompted him to rob her; and in
a lonely spot near Pine Creek, he pre-
sented a pistol to her breast, compell
-led her to dismount " and deliver itp
j what money she possessed; when ho
immediately stripped her, tied her in
this condition, to starve with hunger
or be devoured by wild beasts. She
had retnained in that condition near
ly all night, when after the most des
perate struggles, she had released her
selfl and made her way to the cab.
in..- After beincr refreshed, she wil
lingly went with the family to, th,e,
spot, and pointed out the path she
had beaten round the tree trying to
free '
There was something.artlessin her
appearance; and her modest demean-I
or and delicate frame, left no doubt
in the minds of_ those who saw her,
that her statements were true, and
that she had beenjoully dealt with. i
She appeared to be overwhelmed with 1
distress at the thotightof her situation '
among strangers. She gave her name
as Esther McDowell. I
Rev. Mr. Grier, Either of Judge
Grier of the Supreme Court, resided
close by, and took:her into his fami
and kindly provided for her wants. !
A great deal of sympathy was exei- !
ted in her behalf, and the neighbors
vied with each other in making her;
presents of clothing. Several gentle
men, now living, presented her with
valuable silk dresses, and other arti
cles, which she accepted, and kindly
thanked them for their liberality.
Meanwhile the news spread through
out the country, and the public ie
dignation was highly excited against
the villain Connett. Handbills, of•
fering a reward for his apprehensien,
were put in circulation, and the chiv
alry of the West Branch started itr
all .direCtidnA to look for the scout). I

The artless girl remained in the
neighborhood, caressed and entertain- I
ed by the sympathizing people, who I
could nof 'do enough to , alleviate her
Wants. Her manners were so simple,
her actions so ladylike and refined,
and her description of the thief so I
minute, that no doubt was left of her j
. being badly treated. Letters in the
meantime were dispatched to her i
father at Montreal, but weeks elapsed
land no answer came. Still the pub
lic confidence in her was unshaken.
The intelligence having spread far
and near, strangers flocked in great
numbers to see her, and" loaded , her
with presents. Being tit, the, hotel
kept by 'Duffles, at l Larry's: Creek, a
gentleman namlid, Hutchinson, from
`Milton, called to see her. , Stte. eyed,

and he thought he detected something

refused, when he exclaimed, calling
