A STE ENT OVT WITTICD•
Ait amusing case of marrying the
wrong, and, at the same time, the right
man, recently occurred in Milwaukie.
The naines of i the parties aro suppressed',
but the facts in 4 simple form aro as fol.
lbws : Two youtg gentlemen—call thorn
William and Henry—were in love with
the daughter of a, wealthy . Milwaukieciti•
s_en. The girl infinitely preferred Henry;
but the parents could have nothing to do
with hits, and urged the claims of, Wil.
llanr. To please her mother the Young
lady consented t marry William, hnd a
day was arranged for the wedding t take
place.

accordance with the progratuMe ,
but no
bridegrooth was there. Hour after hour
passed, and 13611160 successful suitor
failed to make hlii appearance, when at
past, the - bride, after the fashion of these
persons,...threvr herself into her mother's
arms, declaring that she could never sus-
Clin the insult, and thsat she would poison
herself forthwith. She then went into
hysterics.
No ono could giye an account of Wil•

were, looking exceedingly serious and
hysterical, when Henry stepped forward
and laid that'he could not bear to See the
glric, insulted, and therefore propoSed to
taathe place of the recreant lover. No
sooner said than done; the girl agreed to
the arrangement to save her wounded
pride, the mother to calm her daughter's
sorrow, and the pair 'were united. All
then went merrily] as possible, when, in
the midst of the feitivitics, William, dtts
ty, travel stained 'and fearfully excited,
burst into the room.
An explanation , was immediately de.

note from his affianced bride tolling him
of an accident which'had befallen hie un
