The facts are these: The young lady was engaged to be married to a young man whom we will call B., and the evening set for the event was Wednesday last. Accordingly B. made the necessary preparations, such as procuring license, &c., and was to come to this place to have the matter solemnized. But the sequel shows that B. had a rival in the affair, whom we willcall C. C. getting wind of whut was about to transpire, came to this place and procured a license to marry the same girl.
