From the N. Y. Evening Post. ' - Matrimonial brokerage. r . A Gentleman from the Rural District in a Matrimonial ,"' :, ;' Office Has Adventures with an Actress. . j (. In the fall of 1857, a young country merchant, not altogether ignorant of the ways of the city, and by no means averse to adventures, came here to get his semi-annual supply of dry goods. Having made his

Durchases. and beins in no especial haste to return, ho

determined to visit a matrimonial oflice, the advertise

ment of which he had seen, and which struck him as

exceedingly curious. " 1 . He repaired to the place indicated in the paper, paid the usual fee of five dollars, and made the fullowinsr entry: i .-

" John Quincy Jenkins, a dry-goods merchant of

Memphis, Tenn., twenty-hve years or age, live leet ? : nine inches high, black eyes and hair, and domestic ' tastes, desires to form the acquaintance of a lady, twenty-two or twenty-five years of age, with a view to matrimony. She must be of affectionate disposition, accomplished, intelligent, and handsome. None ' others need apply. Money is no object, the advertiser having a lucrative business." ' ' - ' The merchant was assured by the broker that she has just such a person upon her list at that moment; and that if he would call at five o'clock that afternoon he should see her. ; The adventurous Jenkins, being of a somewhat suspecious disposition, feared foul play; and, when the appointed hour arrived, went to the matrimonial office with a six shooter, well loaded, in his pocket, more than half expecting to defend himself against robbers and assassins. ' But the enemy he encountered was not of this kind. Ho was introduced to a young woman with black eyes and hair, pearly teeth, delicate hands, fine form, and intelligent and rather handsome face. Her . dress was appropriate and her manners modest. . Be it known that the adventurous Jenkins had anticipated nothing of the sort He had supposed that if the landlady introduced him at all, which he considered doubtful, it would be to some frightful hag, , who would drive him from the house in disgust. He was therefore a good deal taken back, and, though a man of suflieent f audacia" much embarrassed. f He rallied, however, and was soon chatting with the stranger as with an old acquaintance. Her wit and intelligence surprised and pleased him. He had no - 'more idea of marrying than Brigham Young has of living single, and began to wish from the bottom of his heart, that he was out of the afTair. ' The twain walked on until Jenkins became aware that he was expected to broach the main subject but bow to do it was a problem. He resolved, however, to tell her frankly that he was there merely from curioshy. He opened in this way : - - ,j i " Mrs. (nameing the broker) keeps a matrimonial office, it seems. It is a novel idea, and her advertisement made me very curious." The unknown beauty blushed charmingly. The

glow which overspread her cheeks was indeed "a hit" But it lasted only a moment. She replied, "yes; I see no harm in it. I would not have my uncle know I am here for anything in the world; he could never understand it I have plenty of acquaintances, but little sympathy. I am well aware what the conventionalities of the world require; I am also aware that a woman's happines is often sacrificed to them. I have resolved to this extent to break through them, and never to marry until I love," .'., " Love, Surely," replied the half-captivated and Ehilosophic Jenkins, "is the essential element of true appiness, and I fancy marriage without it would be an intolerable burden." "I came here," responded mademoiselle, "not because I am ignorant of what belongs to a modest woman, but because I believe there is nothing wrong or immodest in doing so; and, thinking that I might meet with what has thus far in life been denied me the sympathy and friendship of some one who understands me." . " And I came here," vigorously responded Jenkins, perceiving a good chance to say what he wanted to, " I came here simply from curiosity. It is always best to be frank and truthful : I had no intention of marrying, but, seeing so novel an advertisement in the paper, I wished to know its meaning." Jenkins is of opinion, that whon he uttered this speech, a careful observer might have seen the slight, est shade of disappoiuiinent becloud the features of of the fair stranger; but, if so, it passed quickly. After a few minutes conversation, Jenkins arose to

depart He expressed gratification at having seen her, and said that, as he had a few days to spend in the city, he would, if he might presume to do so, beg the honor of calling upon her. . . " Tell me sir," replied the enchanting damsel, "tell me if you can respect me just as much as though you had met me at Saratoga or Newport and sought an introduction." " It matters little where we find a jewel we prize,? was the gallant reply of the gallant Jenkins. "If by that you mean to answer me in the affirmative," was the reply, " I shall be happy to have you call upon me tomorrow evening, at my uncle's, at Ka , Fourteenth street" . Jenkins went away, looking, like Ferdinand - " In a moved sort, ' As if he were dismayed." . ' His soliloquy was something after this fashion: '; " I was a fool for going there 1 If the girl is honest, and has taken a fancy to me, she will be disappointed. She seems honest and modest, though I don't understand how a really modest woman could go to such a place; still she might, perhaps. I did as much as to ' tell her I thought it was not immodest when I asked

to call upon her. I don t think I ought to have done so; I am sure it was wrong. . I won't go that's the. cheapest way to get out of it Yes, I will go t" . Jenkins was swayed by conflicting emotions for something more than twenty four hours sometimes firmly resolving not to call, and again as determined to go. Finally, when the time came, he started without hesitation. He found Delia (so she called herself) in a very respectable house, richly furnished. He was introduced to the "uuelo" as an old acquaintance whom she met at a watering place. The evening passed very pleasantly so pleasantly, indeed, that Jenkins, without thinking precisely what he was about, promised to call again, which he did two evenings later. This time he fouud Delia alone, and after another very pleasant chat arose to take his leave, stating that he should remain in town but three days longer, and asked if he might call asrain.

He now obserbed that his new friend appeared much embarrassed. . She did not answer directly, and Jenkins walked to the door. She followed with hesitating steps, but finally seized him frantically by the hand, and drawing him back, stammered, rather "than spoke, as follows : "You, sir you ask if you shall call again. It will give me pleasure to have you do so that is sir I have something to say. You will excuse me but I know you are generous, and can appreciate my position." a profound sigh, and Delia, staggering to the piano, placed her head in her hands and wept . " Madam," said Jenkius, ' I trust I can appreciate what you wish to say ; and if I can be of service to you in any way, you have only to show me how." She restrained her tears, Bnd proceeded : " I will be frank with you, sir that is sighs and tears I will try to tell you will you forgive me if it is wrong ?" - ' " Certainly it cannot be wrong," Jenkins answered, considerable excited by the unexpected scene. " Tell me frankly ; I assure you it will give me pleasure to serve you." " Yes but oh, dear! another fit of weeping but it is so strange I" " What is it, Didla ?" said Jenkins, for the first time calling her by her Christian name. " You will be as frank as I am, will you not ?" "Yes." " Well, then whether you come again or not depends npon yourself." " Then I siiall certainly come." " I fear not" " Pray explain." , Sighs and tears. " Be calm." " Well, then I will try to becalm enough. I like you very much, and feel towards you as I never did towards another. I that is I am ure I shall, if vou continue to come here love you. If you do not feel so towards me, I must ask you not to come again."

This last speech was interlarded with an infinite number of sighs, and appearances of fainting ; and no sooner was concluded, than she fell fainting toward

the bewildered Jenkins. Ot course there was no al

ternative, and he caught her in his arms, and made several frantic attempts to restore her; and as be thus performed his kindly offices, in came the uncle of a

sudden, lollowed by a young man he had not before

seen. . . , t ., i... . .

Those who have read the adventures of the renown, ed Mr. Tickwick will never forget the memorable oc

casion on which his friends entered his lodgings, and found Mrs. Bardell fainting and screamina in his arms:

and they have only to revert to that picture to have

an exact portrait ot the case ol Mr. Jenkins. JUie uncle summoned the servant-girl, who, for some unac

countable reason, was very near at hand ; she came rushing to the spot, and she, too, saw Delia in the arms

of the petrified Jenkins. v ... s

In due time their united efforts restored her, and

the uncle demanded of her all explanation. . But she could not or would not make any, and he, of course, turned upon Jenkins. : The adventurous Jenkins told him that his niece was seized with a fainting fit as he

stood by the door about to depart, and that he, of

course caught her to prevent her falling at the mon-ent

he came in. lie seemed dissatisfied and suspicious.

Jenkins told mm his niece would explain all when sufficiently restored, and bade him cood night

It chanced that Mr. Jenkins had an intimate ac

quaintance living at the hotel where he stopped ; and,

as he rushed out ot the house, in a condition boi-der-ing on frenzy, he encountered this identical friend. It was a moonlight evening, and the lawyer instantly recognised him as he descended to the street, i As he

did so, he very deliberately walked up the steps, and

examined the number, more carefully than Mr. Far-

rell did 3 1 Bond street, on that memorable occasion

when he sat down to tie a shoe-string, and, returning

to the walk said to Jenkins . ( : i i ' '. ) .

" v hat the devd has brought you here ?" 1 " I don't know ! fate I suppose or being a cursed

fool 1" was the excited reply. -

The lawyer took Jenkins's arm, and demanded a

confidential communication. He, with some hesitation gave a history of the case from first to last ','.'..

" Jfou gave a fictitious name and residence?" in

quired the lawyer, eagerly, when Jenkins had finish

ed. ... .

"Yes." " " '- " And did you tell the fair enchantress where you

were stopping?"

" JNa 1 told her 1 was stopping at the Metropoli

tan. rr - v - -y- - . -r. -

" Lucky I lucky 1" said he. - .' . 1 -.- i . . " Let me tell you. I know a thing or two of that

precious uncle and his virtuous niece. Did she faint well!" said he, laughing.; ;.: a O ! 11 V. A O

" ics." " Of course she did. She was once an actress. She

might have been a good one a famous one, I-think-

uui unit, sue uau so many lovers ana amours. he ran off with a Southern actor, lived with him a year or so, went to a watering place, met the man of the house there, ran away from the actor with him. and called

mm jer uncle. We is as much her uncle as I am no more?" . - " Well ?" - " Well ; there are a great many things done in New York which don't square with the golden rule lawyers know that. You know something of us here, but you know little of the wicked ways of this wicked city. The house you have just left is a trap, and but for your precaution in concealing vour name and hotel.

you would have been caught. You would have been,

as it is, probably, had I not found this out, for they would search every hotel in the city, but they would find you.", ' ; ; . .,. " Your safety is in flight. You must retreat in the morning, or, my word for it, you will be sued. for a

breach ot promise of marriage in less than three days. That scene was all arranged. They will make out a

case against you. In the first place, there is the matrimonial office; the keeper will swear to the facts of the acquaintance. It was formed avowedly in view

of matrimony; there is your writing in the register all of which show the animus. In the second place, the repeated calls. They can pi ovo two, and insinu

ate more. The matrimonial agent will not remember

the date ot your entry on her books the people will not remember the date of your first visits. ,- Thev will

say it might have been four weeks that you were in the habit of calling, though thev cannot swear "nositivclv.

In the third place, there were three eye-witnesses of

me tainting scene, Desides the Ctrl herself: and I have

no doubt the young man is a bona fide witness, invited

mere wnnout Knowledge ot the conspiracy. (Jould

lawyer ask a better case with which to go before a

jury r ,.. , " But are you sure there is a conspiracy ?" -" I know it ; that is, I am morally certain of it"' 1 " Have they served up any such cases to you before ?"

" Yes. I have seen the papers for four similar cases, and, rather than suffer the exposure, trouble, and ex

pense, the parties settled. One man gave one thousand dollars, another fifteen hundred dollars, and another, three thousand dollars, and another four thousand dollars; which, I have no doubt, was divided un be

tween the girl, the uncle, the servant girl, and perhaps

me mainmoniai omce. " And the lawyer," Jenkins suggested. -

: " Well, the lawyer bad his fee, of course ; but I do

not Know as he was particeps crinunis. Jenkins did not argue the morality of the lawyer's part, but requested him to let him know if any thine occurred ; which he promised to do. ' . The next morning, John Quincy Jenkins left for his home, m the rural district, two or three davs soon

er than he intended. In less than a week, he . received a letter from his legal friend, in which he was informed that the next day after his last visit to Delia, a lawyer was applied to as he expected, to make out a case, and commence proceedings against John Quincy Jenkins, for breach of promise of marriage, unless it was settled. At the uncle's suggestion, the lawyer went with him to the Metropolitan, to find Mr. Jenkins, and see if he would not compromise ; not findinothat worthy gentleman, the old man instituted a search in all the prominent hotels; and, finding no such name

on the books, concluded that Mr. Jenkins was a myth, consigning the individual who bore the name to curses and history. .

AFTER YEARS OF STUDY AND EXPERIM ENT, DR. Ro BACK, the eminent Swedish Physician, succeeded in producing a medicine from twenty-three different mountain herbs of bis native land, which acts directly upon the causes of disease in the blood, and by restoring tlie corrupted fountain of life, to a condition of health and purity, expels dis ease from the system, wherever it may be located, or whatever may be its character. Indigestion, nervous complaints, epileptic and other tits, coughs, consumption in its early stages, sore throat, bronchitis, fever and ague, asthma, low spirits, sexual incapacity, femenine weakness, pricking of the skin, symptom a tie of para lye, rheumatism neuralgia, tumor, cancer, diabetes, lassitude and debility, diarrhea, and all other disorders of the organs of respiration, the liver, the kidney, the stomach, the nerves, or the musculur fiber, are unerringly cured by this preparation. It Is to the a(eriemori, or seeds of disease, what an alkali is lo an acid : it neutralizes them with absolute certainty, while at the same time it regulates the secretions, removes obstructions from the bowels, creates appetite, renews bodily vigor, and regenerates every animal function. Such Is the nature, such are the effects of Br. Roback'a famous Scandinavian Blood Purifier, which, if taken in m..

junction with his Scandinavian Blood Pills, will not only ob '

literate the most painful disease, but prevent their recurrence, and lengthen life beyond the ordinary span. In the SCANDINAVIAN VEGETABLE BLOOD PILLS, Dr. Roback presents the result of over twentv ver. nf .vnAti.... .

hard study end experiment as to what a peVfect pill should be.

no one can doubt their superiority after one single trial. Price of the Scandinavian Blood Purifier, 81 per bottle, or $5 per half dozen; Scandinavian Blood Pills, 25 cents per box, or five fr8l. ' From the Rev. Mr. McMdlleh, Pastor of Roberts Chapel : 1 Indianapolis, Oct. 5. I8T7. ' Dr. Roback Dear Sir: I have used your Blood Purifier for a nervous affection, from which I have suffered much at times.

Roback Dear Sir : Having been afflicted with iieural-a or rheumatism for the past year and a half, and having seen your medicine, called the Scandinavian Blood Purifier, highly recommended by gentlemen with whom I am acquainted. I was induced to try it, but not before I had used various other medicines. After using two bottles, I felt its effect very sensibly,; and upon using two more, 1 found myself perfectly cured.
