A Romance of (lie White House the "old. old story"?why PRES! ? dent i1ucbanan never married. ? ??: ~!7w j iniv'i fiibv *;!,->'< Many years ngo a lawyer in the Quaker City, poor aud unknown to fame, fell in love with a beautiful young lady of Baltimore, and his lovo being recipro cated, nn engagement ensued. The mother of the young lady, how ever, did not, view the engagement with satisfaction or pleasure. Indeed, she herrtily disapproved of it, for-tho young lawyer wns altogether to0? pool* and obscure to marry into ono of the wealth iest and most aristocratic of Baltimore families. This, at least, was the opin ion of tbc yourig girl's mother, who, being very ambitious and correspond ingly proud, desired that licr daughter should Wdd some person* prominent either in this or some othor oonntry. She brought all her influence to boar upon the girl, and did all she possibly could to induce hor to give up bcr lover, but failing she resorted?as mothers havo d?ne"befora?to'deception and other contemptible means to break off the engagement. Letters were inter cepted, had writing imitated, servants bribed and falsehoods circulated pro-" miscuously. Tho natural and inevi table result was that a misunderstand ing arose between the betrothed for which neither in reality was responsible. One day tho lawyor received n note written in the handwriting of his fiance, accompanied by a packet ofblotters! and a box of trinkets. Tho'note stated that ; the writer bad, upon careful consider ation and thought,*decided that she did not love him as a woman about to bo his wifo should, and for this and other reasons bogged to be released from hor engagement. i<< >xii The bfow was a hard one, and for a long time tho lawyer folt the offocts acutely. Under tho impression that ho had been jilted because ho Was poor'and unknown, he determined to boeomn rieh and famous, and forthwith commenced his "noble lifo." How well he sueossded the nation knows, for in 184?he was made Secretary of State, Minister to England, and n few years latter was elected President of the United States. Meanwhile his first love married a very rich merchant of Philadelphia, much agninst ber own will and only at tho earnoet and repeated solicitations''Of her mother.' Tho* marriage wns not a I happy Wo; for ' thi wife neither loired 'nor respected hor husband. Her cup of bitterness was full when she heard of the election of her lover as President, and her mother's cup was quite ovo r flowing. Ahe plunged into Sooial dis sipation in tho hope of forgetting hor sorrows. For two or three Be arons she was tho Ulk < >f the Quaker City, whore ?ho went to reside with her husband, and whpre .their first child was bom.

This most romantic story is vouohod for by rclial?e parties as true in every particular, .although for obvious reasons nil tho namos are omitted.

The developViont of rather j rotnan tio marriage "j?as made in this commu nity a short ^timo since, tho P.ic;s of which we deem it proper to stato in justi:e to all/parties concorned, and to prevent exaggerated representations. Miss JennieV Johnston had becK'HM pupil at the Augusta Female Seminary for the Bession^previous to last summer. Her father and sistor oame on during the summer sbason and the vacation of school, stopping at tho Virginia hotel. Miss Johnston remained at the hotel with them during their stay, and when they left, returned to tho Seminary. Shortly after ) tho departure of Mr. Johnt.vm. a young man arrived in this city, registered at one of the hotels, and g()ingtoJft?]Seminary, e die I for Miss Johntson* pasting uTmselroIF as her_cou.Mii. Mr. Wilcox, the go.nflcann rofirrod to, a short time after this, went to the city clerks office and applie 1 for a mir riage license, giving his own name and that of Miss Johnston as the parties The clerk was absent in Georgia and thjc yeng gentleman who was acting as deputy, being imposed upon by the statement, of the applicant, issued the license. Miss Johnston and Mr. li eb* met on the street during that or (he following day, walked to the Metho dist parsonage, presented the license, Were married, and coining out of the house separated, going in different dir actions. This occurred in Augusta. Nothing was thought of it at. the time, nor wcro there any suspicions at the Seminary that any occurrence of the kind had taken place, until recently, when Miss Johnston, confiding in oue of her schoolmates, staled that sho was married, and the circumstances of it. This coming to tho attention of the school authorities, the matter was quietly investigated, and Mis Johnston's father was summoned by tolegraph. He came to Staunton immediately, and ro turnod to New Orleans with his daughter. Wo learn that Mr. Johnston stated that tho young man had at one time p: id attention to his daughter, but that after she bad been entered as n pupil at tho school, ha had thought no more of it, not knowing, indeed, that Mr. Mr. Wilcox had boon out of New Orleans. While regretting exceedingly the clandestine marriage ho attached no blame to any one but his daughter, wh?Be conduct in' taking so important a step, in lifo, without bis consent, pained him. He further remnrkod that bo should endeavor to make the most out of it, and do all in Iub power to contribute to the prosperity und happi ness of tho strangoly wedded pair. Wilcox chose a very opportune timo to make Iub visit. It was during vuca tion, whon the school discipline was ro laxed) < and tho youug lady regarded simply as a boarder, and not a scholar, subject to the strict regime of the soini nary. Ho adroitly arranged his visit bo as not to appear importunato, and so conducted himself, so far as the Princip al of tho Seminary was awaro, as to oroato the impression that iL was a pass ing visit of respect from a near relative. ??tawilon Vullcy Viryinian. , ? ??~~ i - Tho Cuthbert Appeal says: Tho planters in this seotion, so far as wo have 'been able to learn, outer upon the present' year with hotter prospects, so far as the condition of their farms and the supply of labor aro concerned, than for several years past. Tue "?et up" of the' Wife or a MilXioiitilre. A DIAMOND SHOW. Mrs. Astor, the wife of the hundred millionaire of Now York, appeared at a pnrty which she gavo at her Fifth avon uo residence ouc evening last week, in a style that would justify any reporter in saying that she "literally blazed all over with diamonds." On each of hor (shoulders she had four stars, tho si/.o of silrer Half dollars, made of diamonds. Her hair was set very thickly with dia monds, and hor head .scorned aflumo with them. There was a diamond baudau upon her brow. She had diamond car-rings, and a diamond necklace of magnificent proportions. Upon the two sides of her client were two circles of diamonds about the size of the palm of the hand. From them deepened lines and curves of diamonds reached to her waist, round which she wore a diamond ?girdle. On the skirts of her dress in front wero two large peacocks, wrought of lines of diamonds. There were rosettes of diamonds on her slippers. Thcro were diamonds, large ur small, in every variety of form , all over her dress and person, whereover they could be artistically plucod. She presented an extraordinary and dazzling spectacle, as she moved languidly through the dance, among her friends ' One of the ladies present, a connoisseur in precious stones, win kept c >ol etiou-jh to take practical observation, says the diamonds she wore could not have cost less than a million dollars, and must have represented her husband's income for at least a quarter of a year. This same lady, who is familiar with court life iu Europe, Hays that the largost eil lcctiou of diamonds iu the possession of any European Empress or Qu*.en, be longs to the present Gorman Empress, but, she adds, even Augui>ta herself could not, make a diummd t>h<>w which would begin to compare with th.it made by Mrs. Astor on Thursday evening of last week. In these hard times tho As tors are occasionally liberal in their bone facti >ns. For instance, there w.is a ban quet lor twenty-lour given at tho Astor mansion thc.Otlvjr day, and in front of each lady's plate thcro was a gift for her f.f a costly ftunfumniern, oquisit'dy wrought with precious stnuus. a i l ab fit tho hi/.e of an ordinary BujalF box, and ouch lady waaialso presented wit.h i b.iu nuut, gotten up iu fashion uoj tube de scribed.
