tolls un of n rather remarkable, though
hnrdlynnprccwlontcd, matrimonial affair
which occurred In that county recently.
Out from tlm lino of railroad, and nnilo
from almost nay other very well-defined
mark of civilization -marks no ill
delineated, in fact, that they nro an ,a
half-worn dnto on an ancient coin--there
lived old man llOnehury and two sons,
twins. Tho afto of the old man In rather
doubtful, but it is lK'lievcil by bin near

within a stone's throw Hint in, if the

are about tlio name ago B7. Tlio near
ent human habitation wan a houn occu
pied by n Mrs. OlOnn and two dauhterx,
though pity lo'nay, the daughters were
not twins at the time of their birth, and
have not yet succeeded in attaining that
point. Mr. KoHcbury fell deeply in Iovo
with Mrs. (llcnn, and the two koiih, Itob
ert and John, fell eiiunlly an much no
with tho two daughters, Mary and
Hoclicl. The most imaginable wholenalo
love-making canned. Tiie old man and
widow seemed devoted to each other, and
tho younger ih.-ojiIo wcro nufllcicntly no
to marry, which they all did on tho namo
day. Aftur tho ccrcnionics tlm six luyjpy
notils and tho nix linppy lodien reimircd
to Iho residence of the husbands. Every
thing worked smoothly. The old man
wan try kind to bin newly made daugh
ters, particularly so to Itachcl, tho wife
of hin son John. The kindmits increased
and the other uiatrimonialictn marveled
ono to another. Tltu old man even dis
regarded Hie wishes of his wife, and 1U
chel snuffed her Grecian noso nt her
ltouian-iioscd husband. One morning
about two weeks after the marriago, tho
family of several divisions discovered
that tho old man and llnchel hal gone.
Searching, and not being ablo to And
them, but learning from n fcrrj'man that
they had crossed tne river Tennessee, tho
family returned, l'rctty soou an intima
cy sprang tip between Itobcrt, Mary's
husband, and the old lady. Tlio old
lady was so wise, and hnd snch broad
cxperiituce. that Itobcrt uovor grew tirwl
of p rollting by her counsel. Another
disaster, ltobert and Uio old lady ran
away, leaving John and JDirv, who, see
ing,' on thov wero not blind, that they
were loft alone, olasiwd themselves in a
loving embrace, for it seems thoy had
loved each other from Hio first. Did
they stay on tho form? No, sir. There

Previous to tho thirteenth century the

an advanced national literature and art ;
neither slaves nor serfs were yet known ;
the land was communal proiwsrty, and the
labor was performed mostly on the co
operative plan, l.m-sia had every pros
pect vt further prosperity and progress.

brought against Mrs. Leigh after Lady
Byron's death, and said to rest upon hor

Leigh as "My Dearest Augusta,"
and concludes by saying, "Feel-
