MISCELLANY.

narriage in a Temperance Meeting. The St Louis Itepublican endorse? the following interesting sketch as a true story: In the evening of the day on which Alice arrived at S , a great temperance meeting was held iu one of the churches. Her friends who had become enthusiastic in the cause, urged her to go to the meet ing, which Alice did, though with reluctance. The house was crowded above and below. The preliminaries usually appertaining to meetings having been arranged, a brief opening address was made by one of the ministers. A reformed man related his experience with great effect. After he had finished t here was a pause of nearly a minute. At length a man who had been seated far back with his face turned to the audience, arose slowly and moved to the front of the stage, A half suppressed exclamation escaped Alice, as her eyos caught the well known: features of him who had once been her husband, while a quick thrill ran through her. Then her frame trembled in accordance with her fluttering heart The face of Mr. Delany had greatly changed since she had looked upon it. Its calm, dignified elevation had been restored, but what a difference! 'Mi President,1 he began in a broken voice, 'although I consented, nt your urgent solicitation, to address this large assemblage to-night, yet I have felt sostrong a reluctance to do so, that it is with the utmost difficulty that I could drag myself forward. But I had passed mv word, and could not violate it. As to relating my experience, that 1 don t think I can venture upon. i The past I dare not recall. Would to heaven that ten years of my life were blotted out!' The speaker here paused a mo- j ment, already much affected. Then resuming in a firm voice, he said: 'But something must be said of my own case, or I shall fail to make that impression on your minds which I wish to produce. 'Pictures of real life touch the heart with power, while abstract presentations of truth glitter coldly in the intellectual regions of the mind, and then fade from the perception like figures in a diorama. 'Your speaker once stood among j the first members of the bar in a neighboring State. Nay, more than that, he represented his county three years in the Assembly of the Commonwealth; and more than that, occupied a seat in Congress for two congressional periods.'' At this part of Mr. Delany 's remarks the stillness of death pervaded the crowded room. "And yet more than that,' he continued, in a low thrilling tone, 'I had a tender wife and two sweet children. But all those honors have departed from me,' he continued, his voice growing louder and deeper in his efforts to control himself; 'I was unworthy to retain them. 'Mv constituentsthrew me off because I had debased myself and al so disgraced tlieni. Ana worse! 11 AO. 11 U-ll llilL) 011J H 1IU tW tU IHL V - 11 c?l-t-i ti-1-wv ma

period of my life to which I have .

just alluded. 'Three years have passed since then. For two years of that time abandoned myself to the fearful impulse of the appetite I had ac quired; then I turned attention to this movement the great Temperance Cause. At first I sneered, then wondered, hesitated, and final-1 ly threw myself on the great wave that was swelling onward, in the hope of being carried by it far out of the reach of danger, and I did all not hope in vain. It did for meand more than all I could have dreamed of It set me at once upon my feet once more made a man 01 me. A year of sobriety, earnest devotion to my profession, and fervent prayer to Him who alone gives strength to every good resolution, has restored me much that was lost but not all, nor the rich est treasure, that I proved myself unworthy to retain not my wile and children. Ah! between myself and them the law has lain its stern and inseparable interdiction. I have no longer" children, though my heart goes out towards those dearly beloved ones with the teni j derest yearnings. Pictures of our early days ot wedded love are ever lingering on my imagination. I dream of the sweet fireside circle; I see ever before me the once placid face of my Alice, as her eyes looked infn mv own with npvpr chnnrnnc - - w ...... e o :n" exigent confidence. .1 feel her arms around my neck, the music of her voice is ever sounding in my ear.' Here the speaker 's emotion overcame him. His utterance choked him, and he stood silent, vr ith bowed head and trembling limbs. The dense stillness was broken by half-stifled sobs. At this moment there was a movement in the crowdA single female figure, before whom every one seemed instinctively to give way, was passing the aisle. This was not abserved by Delany until she had come nearly in front of the platform where he stood. The movement caught his ear, and lifting his eyes, they almost immediately fell on Alice, for it was she who was pressing forward. He bent towards her with suddenly uplifted hands and eager eyes, and stood like a statue; she gained the stand and advanced quietly to his side. For a moment they stood thus the whole audience with the scene, were upon their feet and bending forward. Then Delany opened his arms, and Alice threw herself upon his bosom with a wild gesture. Thus for the space of a minute they stood, every one by a single intuition understanding the scene. One of the ministers came forward, and gently separated them. 'No, no,' said Delany, 'you must not, you cannot take her away from me.' 'Heaven forbid that I should do that!' replied the minister. 'By your own confession she is not your wife.' 'No, she is not,' replied Delany mournfully. 'But she is ready to renew her vows again, said Alice, smiling through the tears that now rained i y- p lnS UP nis aSea e'es tnat streamed jwith drops of gladness, he said in a solemn voice 'Whom God hath A rrts'' dV .

corruptions, . doth your i ather in heaven prepare the precious essence of life, the pure cold water. But in the green glade and grassy dell where the red deer wanders, and the child loves to play, there God brews it; and down, low down in the deepest valleys where the lountains murmur and the rills sing; ana nigu up on the tall mountain tops where the native granite glitters like gold in the sun, where the storm-cloud broods and the thunder-storms crash; and away far out on the wide, wild sea, where the hurricane howls music, and the big waves roar the chorus, sweeping the march of God there he brews it, that beverage of life, health-giving water. But every where it is a thing of beauty; gleaming in the dew-drop, singing in the summer ram; shining in the ice-gem, till the trees all seem tur ned to living iewels spreading a golden veil over the setting sun, of a white gauze around the midnight moon; sporting m tne caiaraci, sleeping in the glacier, dancing in the hail shower, folding its bright snow curtains softly about the wintry world; and weaving the many colored iris, that seraph's zone of the sky, whose woof is the sunbeam of heaven, all checked over with celestial flowers, by the mystic hand of refraction. Still always it is beautiful that blessed life-water! no poison bubbles on its brink; its foam brings no madness and murder, no blood stains its liquid glass; pale widows and starving orphans weep not burning tears in its depths; no druukard's shrieking ghost from the grave, curses it in the jvords of eternal despair! Speak out my friends, would you exchange it for demon's drink, alcohol!'' A shout like the roar of a pest, answered "No!" temThe Importance of a Subpoena It is singular what shifts love will make to accomplish its objects. Bolts, gates and bars, are of little avail against Cupid's picklock contrivances his cunning will devise ways and means to open them all. A young gentleman had courted a fair lady of this city, and it was supposed the two, in due time would become 'one flesh.' Some little quarrel of a trivial nature, as lover's quarrels generally are, occurred. Neither would confess the wrong to be on their side presents and correspondence were mutually sent back and the match was broken off. The young gentleman immediately started for New Orleans, to enter into commercial business, thinking that distance would lessen the attachment he really felt for the young lady. When a woman is injured, or thinks sne is injured, by the one she loves, she is more apt than the male sex to 'bite off her own nose,' as the saying is, to inflict pain and be revenged on the offending object A gentleman that the young lady once rejected renewed his proposals, and was accepted within a week alter her old lover had em - barked for the south. On reaching IN ew Orleans, he found that distance, instead of weakening his at - tachment, only made the lady dear-

er, and he became melancholy and , mind to repudiate the love and low-spirited. The first letter he re-1 anxious care of the mother whobore ceived from New York from a friend j her, and of the father who has cherof his, announced that his old flame j ished her as his life and that she was to be shortly married to ano- j has turned her face away from the ther. His course was quickly ta- altar of home, from the nest of her ken the next morning saw him on j infancy, and put herself into the

board a packet ship, bound for Gotham The passage unfortunately was long, and the poor fellow chafed and iretted so much, that the passengers' ' began to think him deranged, or

else a lugitive escaping lromjustice. whole life is one of unavailing penThe instant the vessel touched the ance, of scaldinrr tears, of sham and

wharf he darted for the office of his friend, a lawyer. It is supposed the latter was much surprised to see his friend, imagining him a couple of thousand miles away. After the usual salutations, ne exclaimed 'My dear fellow you are just in time to see the wedding. Miss your old sweetheart, is to be married this morning at 1 1 o'clock. To tell you the truth, I don't believe there is much love about it, and that the girl really thinks more of one hair of your head than of the fortunate bridegroom's whole body.' 'Good God! Where is she to be married in church?' 'No. At her father's house.' 'My dear fellow, I I yes no yes, I have it Have you any case'coming on in either of the courts, at 11 o'clock?' 'Yes,' 'Then fill me ud a subDoena with the bridegroom's name. Don't stop to ask any question. It matters

not whether he knows anything

about the parties in the suit. By heavdnaj Julia shall De mine: His friend saw his object at once, and promised to carry on the matter. The subpoena was made out and placed in the" hands of a clerk, to serve on the unsuspecting bride ffroom the instant he was leaving his residence,and he was aespatcnea a cab to watch the house. About ten minutes before eleven, as the soon-to-be-happy man was en tering a coach before the door ol his residence, he was served with the subpoena. 'Can t help it, saul the clerk, m reply to his gesticulating about 'not knowing the parties, 'going to get married, etc. 'We shall not reach the hall now before eleven the case is the first on the calender won't keep you but ten minutes. If you don't go, heavy fine, imprisonment for contempt of court,' etc. The bridegroom who was of rather a timid nature, finally consented, particularly as the clerk promised to send a friend ol his who sat in the cab, wrapped up in a large cloak, to the house of his bride in expectation, explaining the reasons of his absence. The reader can imagine who this person was. Eleven o'clock came, but still no bridegroom. The guests were staring at each other the priest began to look pale and agitated, when a carriage drove up, the bell rang, and 'There he is!' 'There he is!' mutter many voice. A gentleman did indeed enter, whose ap pearance created almost as much astonishment as that of Edgar Ravenswood in the hall of Ashton Castle, at the marriage of Lucy Ashton, in Scott's 'Bride of Lammermoor.' The lady fainted private explanations ensued between her parents and the lover and the result was, that the two real lovers were joined in the sacred bonds of matrimony, much to the satisfaction of all. The bridegroom that was to have been, soon after made his appearance, puffing and blowing. What he said and what he did, on beholding his rival, and being made ac- ; quainted with the condition of afI lairs, was really tragi-comical. The story of the subpoena shortly alter leaked out, and has created so much amusement, that the poor fellow declares that he will sue the lawyer for $10,000 damages, in subpoenaing him as a witness in a case of which he knew nothing, and by which he lost a wife. It will be a novel suit indeed, if he should do so. N. Y. Ex. RUNAWAY MATCHES. It is commonly regarded as one of the best of jokes, says the N. Y. Organ, if a foolish daughter of fifteen or sixteen years of age succeeds in outwitting father and mother, and runs off with a comparative stranger. At the risk of being regarded as very old-fashioned, we shall nevertheless acknowledge that we rarely can see any thing of the nature 1 of a good joke in a clandestine or : runaway wedding. We confess to a feeling of sadness and evil forbo-

: ding, when we hear that a girl who ! i."l.V.o,r,tm, is a mere child has made up herlioMDoiS

hands of a man whom her parents dare not trust. We need hardly remark thatmar j riage is the great event in woman's me Irom which all other events tako , their coloring. If she err here, her blighting sorrow. She cannot go back and undo her fault; she dare not look to the future for it is all desolate to her. These things being so, it follows that a vounsr ladv should yield her hand and heart only after the most prudent and cautious forethought. She should avail herself of the wisdom and experience of those who love her. and i - c above all of her parents, and after all, she will feel that the chances are sufficiently numerous that she may But in most clandestine marri ages the girl is a child, ignorant of the world; without experience; deficient in judgment; her mind probably filled with false notions and fanciful day-dreams, derived from novelists and romances. She meets with a young man at a party, or a ball, no matter where; who seems interested in her, and she is flattered by his apparent adniiration. He conducts her home; calls on her

next day: repeats his call, and they

are thenceforth m love, it they were not at the first glance. They have become the Romeo and Juliet of what is a play in the outset, but a tragedy in its close. The incompetence of the young girl to estimate the character of her lover is perfectly apparent to every one but herself. It is enough for her that he appears to love her sin cerely and ardently. He proposes marriage to her, and is probably ac cepted without reference to the parents. He entreats that an early day may be named for their union. If there is any doubt of her parent's concurrence, this is granted, too; and if parental objections or diffi culties threaten to interpose, an elopement is the next question ag itated and agreed to. lhey are consoled by the thought that there is something romantic in a runaway match; and that such things are rather praised than condemned; and besides, after all is over, it will not be difficult to make up with father and mother. A reflecting woman would see that the young man who sues her love without the sanction n IOr ? Oil her parents, gives prima facis evi ucirc mat. cuiiic limit! is niuug auuuo A t,4- U: V,,ihim; something that shuns the 1

But such is not the course of that large class of young girls who figure in runaway matches. And the consequence is that such girls fall an easy prey to the thousands of genteel loafers, worthless, portionless, and heartless vagrants who contrive to keep up a respectable exterior by preying upon society. wnne we wnte these lines, we think of the multitudes of once young, thoughtless girls who have fallen into such hands, and found, after a few months of married life, their terrible mistake. They see when it is too late they realize when there is no remedy for it, that they have plunged into an abyss of misery, instead of stepping into a heaven of earthly bliss, and now casting themselves once more upon the parental bosom, exclaim in a concert of agony, Would to God we had never wandered hence.
