in which llic aaa'lleraaa was the plaintiff had

reading; The following facia rtiapi lead to
sucti a denoumenl:
l&iuireJohn Bradsh'er of Person Couply,
NI C., had' been a widower for only a few
rnbnths. ’ After the Ipsa of hi’ Partner he fell
sadly oppressed with the unwonted loneliness
of hid situation, and' na'idrilly fe!) into ih> r
habit of visiting a Miss' 'Fronky Ijea of (he"
neighborhood by way of dispelling his gloojn.
Ii is’nut in human nature for two persona of
op’pdsiie'aexea, with warm iihjvulsea pod throb
bing hearts, to associate constantly 'without
becoming s'rorigly attached the ope to the
other. The thought at first, hefhaps, entered
th‘p brain of hei'her. But Miss Franky,as
i<'the saving, had the quills. Twelve thou
sand was her dowry. This, with' tier other
attractions, (for, mind you, she was only 57 t )
operated like magic on the ardent nature of
tlie ’squire, who, though in' his seventieth
year, was rejuvenized by the inspiration of
Mi&s Franky’s smile. lie thetefyre (ound no
difficulty in making 'Up his mind to marry
her if he could. He proposed—sjte accepted.
The morning of Saturday,' the 14th July just
passed, at 8 o’clock, was fixed on for the
marriage. The’squire procured; his license,
paid an extra price for it in view of the ex
pected accession to his wealth, employed u
parson, rigged himself off in a suit of blacky
and made every other imaginable preliminary
arrangement for the ceremony which was to
consummate his bliss.
The daughters of Mr. Samuel Johnson,
nno'her widower of the neighborhood, were
invited to Ihe wedding. Johnson was only
57—Miss Franky’s age exactly. They had
been children together; and while they were
both quite young they had loved. He was
not satisfied that she and the squire should
marry. On Finlay evening, the day before
the expected wedding, seeing a neighbor pas
sing his house he hailed him. The neighbor
fiund Johnson very much excited and dis
turbed. Johnson stated to him that he could
not bear the thought of'Miss Franky’s mar
rying ’squire Bradsher, and that he wanted
him to go to Miss Franky at once and soy
to her for him dial if she preferred marrying
him to Squire Bradsher she could do so.—
T|te neighbor lOMSted'oa his writing tq her a
letter to his effect, offering Io deliver it. —
“No,” says he, "I am entirely 100 nervous
to hold a pen. You must go and deliver the
message ” Finally he consented and repaired
to Miss Franky’s residence, charged wph this
message of love. Miss Franks, in reply,
authorized him to say to Mr’ Johnson ihu if
■he would get ready to marry Iwr at sunrise
the next morning she would marry him.
It was then laio in the afternoon. Having
no time to spare, he put off under whip and
spur to lloxborough, the county seat, Tgr his
license, and at the same moment started off - a
servant to Leasburg for a parson. The ser
vant took care not to inform the minister whai
it was his master wanted of him, but only
scud Ihuf hia scrrtcca wore
qulred at sunrise the next morning.
Mr. Johnson, the minister who had bepn
engaged to officiate, and the friend who had
borne the messages of love between Miss
Franky and the bridegroom, were at their
post at the appointed hour. The marriage
riles were performed, and Miss Franky Lea
became Mrs. Franky Johnson,
An hour afterward ’Squire Bradsher and
his retinue were to come. Accordingly the
bride hastily addressed a note to the ’Squire,
informing him that she'was no longer Miss
Franky Lea but Mrs. Franky Johnson, ond
that he need not trouble himself any furiher
about bet.
The nsionished yet incredulous ’squire
could not belive the nole authentic, but re
garded it as a hoax aUemleii to be practiced
upon him by some of the wild youngs men of
the neighborhood. To settle the mailer he
hastened over to see his inamorata, Arrived
in he presence he presented the nole to her
nod inquired if she wrote it. She replied in
the affirmative. Incensed at her faithlessness,
he indulged (who that is mortal would noli)
m belter complaints of her ill-treatment.—
(Johnson meantime in the next room, reclin
ing on a sofa, cosily smoking his pipe, and
listening wuh more of merriment ihan resent
ment to the imprecations heaped upon his
bride.) Indeed, having foiled his competitor
while in the very act of plucking the fruit for
which he so much yearned, he could well af
ford to endure the pain of a few biller re
proaches.
jAfterafree ebullition of his indignation,
the ’squire retired, resolved, as our informant
tells us, upon a resort to the law to stanch
his heart wounds, and heal, as far as possible,
his bruised and lacerated affections.
' Having derived these facts from undoubted
authority; they may be regarded as true to
the letter.
