"A Toucb or XatUrr makes the ITboIe World Kin " On board tba steamer Ocean, between Cleve lanl and Detroit, a circumstance occurred last week which is pleasant!) told bj a corres pondent of the Cleveland Herald. A youug girl, apparently about seventeen years of age. was seated upon a pile of cheese j boxes, with her two little brothers, aged clev- j and twelve vears They were orphans, bound ! from Allegheny, Pennsylvania; to Michigan, where they expected to Cud a home with an uncle. ""' After having purchased second class tickets for three, the girl had Fpread her old quilt on the pile of cheese boxes and prepared to pass the night in quietude. She had hardly ar ranged her hest however, before she was acci dentally discovered by a second class passe v ger, a tall youug man of twenty-three Years, who had loved her fecretly almost from ber iu fancy, aud who, for the past two years had been rafting lumber on the Ohio river Hav ing about two hundred dollars in hard curren cy, he came to Cleveland ou the 10th to par ticipate in the celebration, when, as be expres sed it, "some mean kus had picked his pock et of every cent but four dollars." Being unable to tiud the thief or the mon ey, he started for the West, with the determi nation to hire out on a farm. To Lis surprise and joy he found himself on board the same vessel with the object of his heart's earliest affections. Sliding up to her he, exclaimed : 'Why, Cynthia Ann! why how do you dew? I don't hardly know you! Why how you've growed! Where you going ?" "I'm going to uncle's in Michigan," was the feeble reply. "You knew mother was dead, didn't you ?" "Why, no I" and his voice softened. 'When did she die, Cintbia Ann?" 'She died last January. Uncle wrote to me that if I'd come up there he'd give me aud the boys a home.' v 'Cynthia Ann !' and the young man's voice trembled 'there aiut no tuao 'ill t-e so glad to give you a borne as I will ! I've allera tho't a heap of you ! I roid your mother when you wasn't tnor'n so high, that wbeu you growd up I was goin to have you. Now Cynthia Ann jest say the worvJ, and you're to hum now ! ' What'Il become of the boys ?' inquired the agitated maiden. I'll go with yon and-leave 'cn to your un cle's and then we'll go West, and hire out this fall and winter, and then next spring we will buy a small farm and live to hum ?' The girl gave a warm 6igh of acceptance, leaned her head against the honest breast of the hardy youth, as much aa to say if you want anytbiog, take it.' The man snatched a kiss from her ripe ru by lips, sprang down from the cheese boxes. anJ exclaimed 'If there's a minister or a Justice of the Peace on this boat; I've got a job for him ! 'I am a Justice of the Peace,' remarked a venerable looling old man" from York State, 'remount the cheese boxes, and you. shall be a married man in less than five minutes. Well, hold on 'squire ! I haint got no money, but Til give you an all jo fired good axe. Never mind about the pay, said the wor thy Fquire. 'I'll take my pay in seeing you happy' The fellow remounted the pile of cheepe, clasps the hand of bi9 dearly beloved, and in three minutes the ceremony was performed he had entered into a new existence. Kiss ing bis little bride on her ruby lips, he seat ed trinifclf on a big cheese aud commenced, do doubt, for the first time, to realize what he was, where be was, what he had dooe, and what ought to be done. Starting up suddenly, be exclaimed half aloud, to himself weil, by boky, this is a pretty hard way of passing the first night !' The bride blushed, and replied nevtr mind Johu, we're just as hapyy as if we were rich. Come, sit down !' Eat John had an idea, and he was bound to put it into operation. Going to his pile of baggage, cot sisting of one large meal bag, containing a change of shirk?, cocks, necker chiefs, and old bouts, he took from the leg of one of the boots au excellent ax, and walk ing up to the Clerks office, he exclaimed : I say, look here, Cap'o, I've paid for a deck passage, but I want a bed for myself and w i celt and woman. I haint got no mou eo. but here ia ac all jofiied good ax.' The gentleman in the office replied that the Clerk had stepted out, but would be back in a few moments ; whereupon he went back to the pile of cheese to look upon his precious treasure. Having our sympathies aroused, we hasti ly ran around auioug the passengers told the story, and took up a collection to procure a state room for the young couple. To the credit of our lady passengers, they were the most liberal in their donations, and in less than ten minutes, we had collected 314,92 Presenting this sum to the agreeably surpri sed young man, we informed him that he could now rrocare a state room with two beds. cno for hinistlf and wife, the other for the boys. Thanking us with his big watery eyes. he rushed to the Clerk's office, where he was net by Captain Pierce, agent for tho line ; Captain Evans, c mi wander of the boat, and Mr. Carter, the clerk. Capt. Pierce exclaimed : 'Here my good fellow, here's a ticket for yourself and wife to go to Chicago. Get West as fast as you e , . tit . can ; go to wort on a iarm, ana iook out ior the landsharks.' Capt. Evans pulled out a glittering coin, and sail: 'Here's five dollars! keep your self iu a good condition, and ' 'hero the worthy captain forgot his epeech and ran tff laufbicg. The CJerlc, Mr. Carter, handed the taao a i Key, and Eaia, 4louare welcome to one of the best rooms on the boat It has two beds, one for yourself and wife, the other for the boys ' Captain Evans having returned, exclaim ed 'Give the boys another room, they haict no business in ' here he broke down with laughter again.' and hurried away to give orders on the boat. The couple now retired . . t . : . io tocir cuuijuuous apartment, as nappy asH mortals art allowed to be on this earth, and the passengers ga'-hcred iu knots to praise the i uoeraiuy oi an concerned, and the comical oddity of Captain Evacs.r ' " AncW iW-sr- Rccanips. Many singular stories are told of Decamps, the illustrious French paiuter, and here is one as odd as it is true Among the hnUtuesoi tho little cafe in the lauboirg cunt Denis wae an amateur of paioting, whom the painters ot that day have : not f rgolteD, M. Jacques Lcfort j Lefort was a man of forty years of age, having an income of fifteen thousand francs, I fond of paioting, and an excellent landscape ! painter himself. He inhabited a third story apartment in the Rue de Provence, where De- i camps went very often to see him. and where j he felt quite at home. He passed macy a j long evening there talking and smoking be- I lore an open wiodow, looking on the vast gar dens of the Hotel Lafitte and the Hotel Roth schild. One day Lefort came into the cafe with an appearance of ill humor. 'What is the matter? asked Decamps, on perceiving him. 'Well. I am perry at leaviog our room. Do you leave it V 'Yes. my landlord wished to raise my rent. I resisted. He insisted, and I gave him no tice that I thould leave. I am quite sorry about it, for you were very fond of that room.' 'Well, withdraw your notice 'You are right. 1 will do so. The next clay Lefort was in a still worse humor. He bad ofiered to withdraw Lis no tice, but the room had been let on a lease of nine years. Lefort was to move in the month of Octo ber. His landlord obligingly notified him that the person Who was to occupy the room would not return from the country till the middle of November, and he therefore bad ample time to seek another room It was on ly necessary that Lefort should leave a por tion of the room vacant, to place the furti- ! ture of his successor. Lefort gladly censen a. ted to that, 3d, it wan brought to the Louse. Decamps, seeing him continually qnite sad j at leaving his room, said to him one day : j 'There may be a means of arranging with your successor.' J 'I do Dot know him, and do cot care to riik a false step. 'Show me then, his furniture," siid De camps, 'that I may sec what kind of a man he is.' Lefort conducted Decamps into the apart ment, and showed him the furniture. 'Hum. hum,' mused Decamps, as his eye glauced over it. 'all this is simple, comforta ble, and in . good taste. The furniture de notes an income of twenty thousand francs recently acquired. It belongs to a man of sense or rather it is a woman ? Look at these articles for furniture use this toilet ta ble, this work table.' Hut th( hnsband ? I don't see any signs of the husband here j no Masculioe furniture, so to spea. lbe bed is too small tor two. We must fioi out now whether she is a young lady, a widow, or an old maid. How to know that?' Let us look. He opened the drawer of the toilet table, and found a comb, between the teeth of the comb was some long hair of a fine gold eolor. 'Good. This doesn't belong to an old wj man. Let us look further He perceived a portrait, with the face to the wall He turned it. and took off the cov ering. It was the portrait of lbe young lady, a very pretty blonde, painted ia 1825 by Her seut It is the portrait of the lady,' said Decamps. It is the likeness of a married woman the dress indicates it. This woman was about twenty four years of age when it was painted, and abo is now a widow of thirty-four. She must still be very handsome She is an intel ligent womannd fond of the arts, I judge by the choice of books in this bookcase, and of this piano. She is a good woman. I judge by her lace. My friend, jou thall not leave this room.' It will be necessary then to ask this lady to give it up to me. No ; only ask her to share it with ycu you must marry her !' 'You are aiad ! You are laughing at me !' T sneak verv eeriouslv. Your furniture seems made to go with hers. The room is too large for one, and quite right for two ' Rut I don't wish to marry.' You are wrong, for you are forty years of age This woman pleases me, will suit you, aud I want you to marry her. Leave me to arrange it. When the lady returned from the country, she was surprised to find her room occupied, and her furniture doubled. Decamps awai ted her. He showed her. tho room arranged by himself,, and the portrait of lefort placed opposite ber own. Sef , Madame,' said he, 'how marvelouly this furniture harmonizes ; what a fine com panion this portrait make for your own ; it is the portrait of the husband you need.' The Udv was eood natured, and did not get angry, but laughed. Lefort presented himself, ana as ne was a man or mcaua, ui in telligence and good looks, he pleased her. He married the widow, and did not leave the room, U only quitted it last year at the death of hi wife, whom he adored, and who mada hiao the happiest of men. Decamps remained their friend, and both, whenever they saw him, thanked him for having married their furniture. A Heir Society.
