after the birth of his first child, wrote

poem:
One night u old tH. Peter slept,
Ho left the door of Heaven ajar,
When through a little angel crept,
And came down with a filling etas.

Of morn approached. my blushing bride

That when he leaves this world of pain

And find the road to Heaven again.
John 13. Saxe, not to be outdone and
deeming that injustice had been done to
St. Peter. wrote the following as '
ST. PETER'S REPLY.

Strange this was the only subject on
which the party had not touched.
Clay's engagement has been for so long

A great light came into his face, but
she turned away as though it hurt her,

A - Romantic Story.
The particulars of a very romantic
love story were developed before Judge
Dixon, holding Supreme Court, Cham
bers; at Patterson, ,N. J., Wednesday.
From the uncontracted teeth:way in
the case the loll Owing facts are gather
ed. Mr. John P. Clifford is a young
man who resides at,Yenkers, New Jer
sey. He We're, spa:table:J . omeg man of
gpod :WA* and . so when he, asked
to be received as suitor to the hand of ,
Mist Ellen McKilvey, of. Patterson, her
parents did not offer any objection.
The Courtship proceeded very smoothly
until Miss McKilvey was -suddenly
taken sick. - The lover spent anxious
days anlnights, but finally the young
lady recovered her health, Nit with it
came a lerrible afilictioh—the loss of
eight. . Before this the two had promis
ed to marry each other, ;now, the lady
offered to release him from his vow, but
ho would not consent_ to it, declaring
.that he' bad promised to laarry her and
that he considered evroraise as good as
if the ceremony hat been performed,
and that her misfortune had only in
creased his-affection for her. But her
misfortune seemed' also" to have increas
ed the affection entertained for her by
her paieuts, and these absolutely refus
ed to give their commit' tp the marriage,
though they dia not have any objection

lady. Now that she was stricken with

the only persons ' who ought to take
•
care of her. They told Mr. Clifford
that-finder the circumstances they could
never think of parting with their daugh
ter and requesting him to . giie up his
idea of marrying her. Re used all the
Arguments at his• command, but the ear
cuts were inflexible and would not be
persuaded.' The two lovers, - however,
were so attached to each lOther that it
seemed, too crael• to separate them al
together. and so Ir. Clifford was al
lowed continue his visits. Miss
McKilvey was over twenty-one years of
age, and consequently her own mistress,'
and Mr. Clifford -soon persuaded her
that the demands Of her' parents were
unreasonable. He finally persuaded
her to marry him, and the ceremony
was performed at St. Boniface'S Catho
lic, Church, in Paterson, on last Monday,
by Rev. Father liens. • When the par-
enta of the bride wore informed of what
had talt4n plac_is they refused to give
credit to it, and. accordingly wouldsiot
`allot/their danghter , to accompany her
husband to his home in Yonkers. Mr.
Clifford concluded to have the matter
settled at once, and accordingly con
suited Mr. D. 1. English, a lawyer s , 01
Patterson. The result was that a writ
of habeas corpua ivas granted by Judge
I Dixon on -Tuesday and made returnable
yesterday. The parents appeared in
court with the.daughter and alleged that
she was blind and that they had taken
care- of her all her life and did not know;
why they should not continue doing as
they desired to, though they did not
want to deprive 'her of her liberty in
any way. Mr. Clifford then produced
the marriage certificate and the parents
of the bride saw that what he bad told
them was not mere fiction, but the
truth. The - Court gave the 'custody of
the blind bride to her husband and be
led her away—the happiest man in the
court room. Mr. Clifford is not wealthy,
but he has a pleasant home and every
thing is in readiness there to receive
the mistress for whom he made so great
a sacrifice.
Personciting the Devil.
In a Gall !len village not far from
Cracrow, a modern version of the
. old
farce, !;The Devil to pay," with some
entirely new effects,, would appear to
have been recently produced. The
hero of this diverting performance
proved to be an 'Official personage t ,the
Judge of the Tillage in question, (who
had assumed the character of Old ;Nick
for highly reprehensible _ purposes.
Having learnt that an old peasant wo
man, resident in his district, had won a
prize of 300 florins-in the Cracow Lot
tery, he bethought him of a stratagem
by which thoietill-got gains might be
transferred to his own possession. Ac
cordingly, dfessed as the devil,' he pre
sented himself as the clock struck mid
night at the Oldwoman's ,lonely dwel
ling, aroused her from -her slumbers;
and, in a hone*: voice, commanded her
to hand over :. - ker winnings, upon the
ground that gall await accruing from
lottery speculations were his perquisite,
by him to be applied to the corruption
'of bpman souls."-, The, terrified wo
man at once produced , 75 florins, pro..
testing she had that, day lodged the
balance in the Cracow Savings Bank;
whereupon the devil informed her, with
dreadhil . threats of infernal torment
should she fail to fulfill hisbehests„ that
he would return the following night, at
the same hour, to receive the remainder.
Next morning tho poor, old lady ap
plied to the Savings Bank for her de
posit. The manager; surprised. that she
should wish to yaw it out soon after
having lodged t„ inquired into her
reasons for sot doing, and elicited
a inn confession of her ad
venture of the .previous night.
When his Ecatanie Majesty call
ed, at 12 p. m.,
,t it the balance of
his '•perquisite" be"was received by
two gemlirmea, who handcuffed him,
muched'hiza off to Cracow, and there
delivered him to theneenlar arm, which
will probably-disable him from playing
the devil for some tocome.—Daily

she pushed on and found her lover at
work in a field about one o'clock.
