"Well," said Ned Arlington, for my1
part I have never Uved but one wuinuu,,

"Yes, sir, two ladies." ? . >.
"But you did not love theru both

"Nqw stranger, thcro was just the

easy courtship.
' You puzzle melM exclaimed Ned.
'?Suppose you relieve our mind by a re
hearsal."
"It will afford mc pleasure and you
entertainment," rcjoiued tho handsome
and soei?l fellow traveler.
Here we leaned forward, intent on
hearing how a man was compelled to love
two Indies with the same degree of fer
vor. . ? ? ; / <i V
'?My frieuds," 6aid ho, "if yon: ever
visit New Haven, Connecticut, you will
hear these expressions : "As much alike
as the Grover girls;" or this: "You can
no more distinguish them than you can
tell Sue from Hannah Grover ' 1 say,
ladies and gentlemen, when a New
Havener is discussing a point of sim
ilitude, he is sure to refer to the Grover
girls. I hud not been in the Elm city
six weeks before I heard these compari
sons. I wont to this place, intending to
enter a business firm. On my arrival
I stnpprd at the Tontine. At this hotel
two gentlemen were arguing ? point of
law-. It was then that 1 first heard this
language. One speaker was proving
that two expressions merit but the same
thing, and paralleled the two propositions
with the notorious twins.
Now there is one thing I have in
common with Women'?that is. curiosity.
I owa it, and will confess that I was on
nettles. 'Never1 could I] be 'appeased un
til 1 had a view of those females.''.i
"Tell me," said I to the book-keeper,
"are these Grover girls ?o much alike?"
"Are they?" said he, iu surprise.
"Well, I will tell you, Mr. Miller, if you
cua distinguish . them after a. wock's
acquaintance, I will pay your bill ut this
house for the balauce of your residence."
"How can I Hccthem ?"
"I'll tell you. Observe that bright
looking gent with the white hut. That
is Mr. Totter, one of our rising lawyers.
He is iiitiiunto with the sisters. Obtain,
an introduction' to him, aud he-will see
you through."
'^Arei'theso ladies of good standing ?"
"Oh! among our first people." ;- '
"Can Mr. Potter distinguish them ?"
'?Never, sir, never, and he looks with
the eye of a detective."
"How long has he known them'/*
"Ttirce or four years; to my curtain
knowledge, It may be longer."
This determined mc. I soon established
myself with the lawyer by retaining hiui
in an important ease. I found him more
than willing to ufford the introduction,
ns he was anxious to see the fix their
identity never failed to create in a
stranger, I will never forget the first
interview. Two exquisitely beautiful
ladies of twenty entered the room. I
beheld duplicates. One was the precise
copy of the other. They dressed alike
to a ribbon and i? ring. Their voices
and countenances gave no clue. Then
their motions left you none the wiser.
Said Totter : "Now take u good look,
for I want you to see if you can identify
thorn."
"Mr. Potter," said I, "ynu will embar
rass the ladies."I
"Not at all," said one. "We are used
to this," said the other. "It is the groat
amusement afforded'by our resfcinblunee,"
Here both spoke, but, upon my honor, it
all sounded like one voice.
"Ladies," said I, "pardon me; Tknow
you arc not horses, but allow me to look
at your teeth. ?"
1 desired this, deeming thcro would
be found some little speck, indentation,
or irregularity that would serve as an
index. They exhibited their pearly rows,
but after minute investigation, I was no
bolter informed. I examined the finger
nails, then their hands, still 1 hud no
point of distinction, and I gave it up
that Suo aud Hannah might forovor
exchange places without detection on my
part,
The ridiculous blunders of .;Jtnirors
were lic<|ucut.; ManUqirmakere, shoe
makers and trades people in general/were'
(outinually presenting Sue with an
??eb?tft oreatea^ by -?Haunah, or tolling
Hannah ^oui'c lingo intended 'oiJly^jfpr?

" The beauty of the hidins impressed

acquaintance of two oiontha demonstrated,

had the connubial article. . Infrequently
took thetn out, yet hevci knew whom I'
had. If my lady would quote Sue, I
thought it clear *! hadi Hannah, or if
Hannah was mentioned, I beiieved I was
beauing Sue. Indeed it waB a mere
matter of faith. There was no evidence,
for often one palmed herself on nie as
the other. This was a chronic dodge,
played >on-ftbetr various admirers to suit
convenience and e nsure rest. As far as
these gallants were concerned, it was
immaterial. Although one might be
called for by name, the other would do
just ns well, no one being able to detect
tho difference. I often implored thetn
to contradistinguish themselves by some
article of apparel or jewelry\ But it was
fruitless. ''That ' would spoil our fun,"
they Would exclaim, as though I medita
ted some terribleinBietSon? -'
As I have told you',' I was in love. I
felt that my happiness depended on the
possession of imo .'of these twins. Hut
for whom shall I ask the pnrcnta? Hon
estly, it was no tnntter which oue I had,
as afTcction made no choice.
On a lovely eve in September, one
sister was from home. Now, thought I,
here is a surety that I can talk a whole
evening to one of this dual phcmmicuou.
Ah she entered the parlor, said I?
"How do you do, Miss Hannah?"'
"You are wrong, sir, it is Miss Sue."
IT- ?r' Tff I' '?!
"Are you humbugging ?"
? Truly no; 1 tell you,siucurely. You
are now addressing Sue Grover."
J saw that she looked unusually tender,
and taking advantage of her faltering
voice and tremulous manner, I declared
my love; and she returned it with all
tho ardor oi bur true and impassioned
nature I summuued the old folks; told
our devotion ; gave prospects,.aud made
all essential revelations. .. The sonio
Grovern guve us their blessings, aut
assured us. that they would see that ou
course of true love 'should run smooth.'
Iiut what if the other girl were to com
iu ! What a pretty mix! How wouJi
I know my girl ? Though again .!
assure you it would have made no differ
encc. I would have proposed to Htfflnal
just tho same. My only trouble was it
the multitude of embarrassments incid&i
to non-distiuguithmcnt. QuUiisgruuti'
I bad a genuine trouble.
Before Hannah returned, I invitei
Sue to take a walk oh the green. "Who
opposite the centre of the church, T sp6k
of the b^o\hVriT^,-^ ho

She took^it off, a ndl carelessly playe
with 1r5ioThfow Tc^Wh-eV^ua-rd?the
calling her attention to a party of stut,-j
cuts, took my Cohgress knife und dre
the Tile blade through the inppr part. , ]t
left a nice mark, aud.by this I hoped ti>
identify her in luture. On our retur'l
to the house I secretly posted her par
cnt8.^ They said I did properly?that jt<
was time Sue should be recognised btj'
her afhunccd.
"You think you are smart, said she
ere I left her.
"Why /" replied I.
"Oh!" responded she, "that-ring
gamo bus been tried by half a dozqn
admirers. I sus'picioued what you wefe
at, but thought I would see how mady
heads'would conceive the same plan.'' 1
The next day neither she nor her sis
ter wore a ring. One week after, tht y
resumed thetn; but in neither was the; e
a mark. It was evident thut I was i o
be out-geuorub1, and would have t"
depend on the discretion of my intended
and the goodncs of their parents.
At parties 1 had severe trials. I heviJr
knew whom I tyok home, and even-win. n
homej would-talk a flood o/ iov^e to ?Sie
wrong girl and receive a laugh for nfcy
enthusiasm. "Hang it!" saidI;"tlH
?ream nfthejoke is- I can't be rcveugcH
for I might hurt the wrong lady."
The betrothal ring was given. Nol
thought [, then is a termination to ifl
discomfiture. Well, it terminated fH
just ? twenty four hours. Hannah tofl
Sue's ring, went to a jewelry htoie aH
ordered one preoisely like it. and heariflj

and honorable of all callings outside of

l ily and "Without compensation, under
take the moral training oi' the youth of
our land, are ccrtaiuly our best citizens
rind truest patriots.
They are moulding the minds of those
who are hereafter to take our places iu
the various' callings of life as .farmers,
minister-, physicians, mechanics:, lawyers
and legislators, aud are thereby, laying
the foundation tor a better discharge of
the religious, social and political du ties
of tho future generation, than of the
?present. It is a fact which is frequently
overlooked, but which cannot be denied,
that no man's education is complete un
less he is familiar with the Biblo. Hence
the importance of Sunday Schools bs
cO-ndjutors of day Schools, aud hence tho
zeal of the writer iu chronicling all that
pertains to them, and of the men who,
arc engaged in them.
Amidst of all our gloomy surround
ings, it is indeed a cheering sign that
our best and most influential men are en
gaged iu this good work.
On Thursday the 7th of October, the
Sunday School at Jericho, under the
superintendence of Mr. Hugo 0. Sheri
dan, Celebrated their Anniversary. Tho
day was clear and beautiful. A blue
sky ami genia) sun shed a lustre upon all
around, and infused new life into the
hearts of the innocent little army. Even
old men and womeu forget their infirmi
ties nnder the iuflucneo of youth aud
beauty around them, aud almost imagined
that they wore.children again.
At 10 o'cl ick, the procession, com
posed of the Superintendents, teachers,
and children of the different schools,
clergymen and speakers, formed in the
rear of the Church and entered in in
verted order."
The services were opened by Rev.
Paul Derrick in reading the Scriptures
and prayer. An address was then de
livered by Mr. Ralph Lay ton of the
Rible (Tass.
A dialogue was next heard between
Lizzie Dantzler, Agnes Holman and Liz
zie llaigler of the Hihic Class.
Dialogue again between Selina Rush,
Ann Segrest, Georgia Felke)', Sallie
Hutto. Annie Holnian and Minnie Ed
wards of the first and second classes.
Dial >.ue between Lawrence Segrest,
.fimmie Siuridan, Davic Tilley, Henry
Dantzler ami Wesley Sones of the second
and third cla.-ses.
Dialogue between Julius Edwards, i
Harmon Rush', Willie Dantzler. Eddie i
PooserJ Deter Tilley, .Johnnie Dolman
and Frank Dates of the fir>t efdts.
This class was introduced by Dr John
(\ Dolman, their teacher. He stirfbd
tliat since tho class" had been assigned to
him lie had been in the habit 6f marking,
the boys for c.icb recitation, and he Was
happy to announce, that during all of the
time, not one of them had ever received
a 'mark' below the maximum. This be
mentioned, not in a spirit of boasting,
but as an example for all to imitate.
Next can i a dialogue between Carrie
Dantzler and Augusta Dolman of the
third (lass.
Dialogue again between David Ann
II ungci peler and Narcissus H utigerpcler.
Dialogue between Cornelia Haiglcr
and Lucy Felke) of the fifth class. 1
The valodicl uy address was then de
livered by Mr Brautley T'lmer of the
Hfl.'e class.
All of the young speakers reflected
credit both to. themselves and to their
instructors. Some of them performed
their part exceedingly well. I will not
mention their names, however, us I do
not wish to discourage the others, who
did well also.
All I will t-ny to yon my young friends,
is this,cherish well the opportunities you
have, improve the talents with which
God has blessed yott,' hud when you grow
up use them in a'good oa'nso.
When the children tord finished the
Rev. T. R. Wannamakorwasinirodoeedj
and delivered one of the most appropri
ate and impressive addresses which Could
possibly hkve'been heard. He spoke in
the mbst touching language of the little

The benediction was then pfouounoed
by Rev. Paul Derrick, when the au
dience proceeded, to the tables, which
were bountifully supplied with every
thing necessary for tho gratification of
the rnner-mHn.
This School has been in operation foi
many years, nnd in, I believe one of; the
eldest Evergrccu ^uuthry Schools in tho
County. It was very small when Mr.
Sheridan took charge of it, but has grad

administration, until it is ntrwthoBghfto

I .trust that tho, gefcd* *Qr?t*till noj ,

Antioch, will give an impulse to the
Sunday School cause which will be felt
in every part of tho County.

Skqiiki. to a Misckuenatio.n Cask.
?It will be1 remembered by our readers
that abotft the -middle** of August.we
copied from tho Washington Kxpre&s an
j account of a marriage in that city of a
negro man named.. Andrew piontagad
with a young white girl named Ellk
Dobbins, of Northumberland county,
Virginia. The same paper publishe*the
following sequelotfSK V m'ft a,{)
The ill-n*-sorto<l evuple wont to house
keeping, oh (bo Island, W4f ttte informed,
and thatc Weck.aller the marriage knot
had been tied, the deluded wife gave
birth to n child. I AfW she had re
covered' f root her accuvuhmcnt she bo- |
came disgusted with the creature*, with
whom sho.wa* nceoaaarily. thrown in.eon
Uct, aud wrote a letter tg her parent
1 begging them to take her home, naming
a day on which she Would meet them.
By some means hor lvuaband or his
friends got knowledge of the contents of
her letter aud they immediately removed
her to a poiufc- in Maryland, where we
understand she is allowed to see no one.
and in fuel is strictly a prisoner.
The day after the poor girl was re
moved her parents came to the city to
take hor home, only to find that aha. bad
been taken away, The letter that bhe
wrote to her parents t hows I hat she is
nearly at the point of despair. She s.i\.-:
'They won't let me speak to a soul I
can neither got veil, pencil or paper to
write upon, aud ihoy threaten to kill na
if I nttnanpti im nanaya.il f Ih ' mother, if
I could sea yon ouoo jdoto,. God help
