Wc learn from the Philadelphia papers
of yesterday, that their quiet citv, or rnthcr
the fashionable world of the metropolis,
was on Monday thunderstruck bv flie 1
announcement of an affair in high life,
which terminated in an elopement. The
parties are first, the lover who is an attache*
of some foreign ambassador; and second,
the ladv, who is the daughter of one of

INDIANA nONDS.
Import ant Movement.? The Legislature
of Indiana has passed a general law. an- i
thori/.ing associations to lake any of the j
public works in the State, and pay for ;
the saine at the ca?tf in the bonds of the
State at par: provided the associations ;
will undertake to finish n good proportion |
of the unfinished work. Some of the
works under the system, are of such a |
character as will not hold out any kind of j
inducement to finish (lie same, whilst ,
ethers are far different. The Madison :
and Indiannapolis rnilroad is believed to |
be one of such exceptions. It is now J
completed f?fr 28 miles, and graded for j
as much more at a cost of one and a half I
millions. About half a million more will j
complete the woik. ' ;
A Cru or# Fact.?The London Herald,
i i? the progress of an article upon the
rapid advance of manufacturing skill in j
the United States, asserts that (he rails j
for at least one half the English rail ways j
have been imported from the United j
States, while every one knows that ail, j
or nearly all, the railroads in this country, j
are laid with rails brought from England, j
This, we presume, is what is called reci-j
procity.
