SS eager ‘With the characteristic vidDess Of @ roliicking young Irishman, he popped the question, bat was somewhat co vied in his ardor on finding that the object of his adoration did not receive the proposition with that favor which he had anticipated. However, like many snotber suitor, ho was compelled to accept the decrees ot fate. Time wore on, and the young man having determined to seek his fortune in America, ba le adieus to friends, anil ho farewell was so Serrowfal as thet uttered iu the hearing of ‘the girl he left behind him.” He locatea in Pittsbarg. and obtarned em- ployment in # rolling-mi!l on the Soath Side. Seventeen years had passed, and the impcessi- bie young men. who had been 80 smitica the rosy-cheeked lass, had changed materially in appearance, in feciing, and in sentiment, but he still nursed an affection for his tirst love’ In- deed, he bad never loved another, so she re- mained not only his first, but only love. He had | lost all trace of her, for many years, and did not know wheth married or single, living or dead. A“‘iriend from Ireland” happened to call upon him, and recollections o1 “anid lang syne” were revived. How natural for Mr. —— to inquire about his love-lass. With deepening interest he learned that she was atiil | alive. that she was doing weil, and better than all, that she was unmarried. The old fam- soon rekindled. Thinking that time, aud, perhaps, want of beter opportunity, migut have changed he feelings of the rosy-cheeked lass, he determined to renew the offer of seven teen years before. He had learned in that to look upon matrimony with somewhat of a business eye, and he foand an additional in- centive in the fact that the maiden had become an accomplished seamstress, and carried on « rofitable establishment on her own account. hen Mr. —— had ability toearn a handsome competence, and realizing how please it it would | be to join their fortunes here in the * noky City, he possessed himself of the propor address. and, in the glowing langaage of an ardent na- ture, he told the story of his years of patient | waiting, his unceasing affection, and all that sort of thing. Then he came right dowa to business, proposing to send her money to pay her passage to Pittsburg, and to make her his wife immediately on her arrival here. The let ter was rece:ved, and the response was tavor- able. Several tender epistles passed betwoen the parties; but a remarkable fact was de- reloped fact that seemed ominous of evi! to Mr. ——, namely: That Miss — could not recall the * frolic” of seventeen years before. | It was unaccountable to him #he could have altogether forgotten that night, and tho conquest she achieved in winning hi Notwithstanding this troublesome circu mst: the details were arranged, and the contra finally entered into.

A $10,000 Bible. [From the New York Herald.) In the bookstore of Mr. Bouton, on Broadway, there 1s now on exhibition what is certainly the most valuable copy of the Holy Bibie ever com plied. It represents the industrious toil for thirty years of an English collector of Biblical prints, etchings, engravings, original drawings in oil and water colors, and authoritative or curions editions of the Scriptures, and is now roughly valued at $10,000, though its rea! price may yery likely prove to be much higher. The complete text used is that of Dr. Kitto’s e:litior of King James’ Bible; but this is but a fra tional part of the sixty huge folio volumes through which it is spread. Sometimes the reader will turn over fifty consecutive pages of illustrations between these scattered fragments. Such subjects, for exam: as “Susana and the Elders,” or “ Daniel in the Lion’s Den enriched with scenes of illustrations drawn { every field of art—the convent missals of the medi. ages, the stranze, fanciful, strikingly false drawings of the Italian masters, the gro- tesque works of Dutch and German painters, and the later and more truthful efforts of mod- dern artists. In all, this wonderful monument of loving devotion to a worthy hobby includes no an 30,00) illustrations of various kinds, some of them worth from $50 to #10) each, and extracts from some thirty editions of the sacred text. Such a treasure ought speedily to find a purchaser insome of our few great libraries, where it would be an anfailing spring of delight and instruction to artists and men of letters. nd the pe: letter. nb An exami- ot that she was are A Strange Phenomen The Pall Mall Gazette says there has been an extraordinary, and, it may be added, singu- larly unpleasant atmospheric phenomenon near Banbury.
