If ever I was warnaly attached to any man in the world it was HarryFleming. We were raised on adjoining farms, hunted !squirrels together, attended the smile academy, but, alas, for peace of mind! each of us conceived an ardent attachment for a yotinglady,MissEmma Parker. • Without vanity,I may say that Emma really landed ine more than my com- rade. She showed it in a thousand. un- mistakeable ways. Harry observedthis; he cooled towards me,and resolvedupon my rain. We, had arranged a visit to Miss Park- er and her younger sister on the Wed- nesday evening ensiling. It was a sultry day in July, and on our way to the Parkernaansion, my companion invited me into a restaurant to partake of some cooling refreshment. There my hopes were blasted,myrnin was effected.. Within ten. minutes we were again on our walk, and soon rang the bell at Miss Emina's abode. Usher- ed into the parlor, the two sisters now made their appearance. Each shook me Warmly by the •band, and I observed. in a moment tin expres- sion of disgust creep over Einnaa's fea- tures. What could be the occasion for such belia,vior? In what manner had 1 of- fended the lady? We were invited to be seated. Emma soon occupied the sofa,, and. I advanced to take a seat by ler side. She immediately arose, say- ing, Excuse me, Mr, Rawlings, I be- lieve sit at the window" To the window ahe -walked, I follow- ing. When again we were both seated , she assumed that terrible expression. Again rising she said. Pardon me, I feel faint, and must walk." I arose to assist or promenade with her, but she spoke curtly, if not indeed. in an angry mood. "Remain seated, sir, I pray you. I wiah to be alone." 'e Then she walked tO•.the parlour door, and passed out into the hall. And was this Emma Parker, the lady whom but yesterday I thought would be my destined. bride? What under Heaven causedher to act so towa,rds me ? Was she demented ? I sat for some moments absorbed in bitter thoughts, resolving in my mind what was best_ to be done. Glancing at Harry I though I. discov- ed a sardonic grin pass over his comiten- ance. He was doubtless glorying in my discomfiture. Little cared he for Miss Julia, for his conversation with her Was dry and. commonplace, and then he was too much pleased to see myoverthrow to think of anything else. What should I do? I must have some explanation of Miss Emma's conduct 7 so I addressed myself to her sister, w;lkirtg up to her side; " iss Julia, will you be so kind as to learn if your sister is ill, and explain why she so suddenly abandoned me ?" The younger sister now put on that abhorrent expression, and at once left the roora. Returning in afewmoments she stated. that her sister could. not .see rae. "Is she ill?" " No sir ; bat she does not wish to see you." "Miss Parke•r," said I, your sister's conduet towards me, considering our long friendahip. , using no warmer term, is without excuse. You willpresent iny compliments to her, mid tell her that she will not be troubled with my pres- ence in the future." Bowing to Miss Parker, and looking coldly at Harry, for I believed he was in some way implicated in Erama's strange behaviour, I walked out of the room. Homeward I proceeded in a perplexed but savage mood. Disrobing at bedtime on removing my veet, a strange -looking package fell on the floor_ I opened it. Great Heavens ! What an odour arose therefrom ! - It was Limburger cheese. My rival, while adjusting my cravat at the saloon, had doubtless dropped the villainous article in ray bosom. I had not smelled it,as I was then a salesman in a butter and. cheese house, andusede to all such odours; but certainly to the delicate nostrils of Emma and het sister, the Limburger cheese must have been hor- rible. I charged Harry with placing this perfume under my vest, and he did not deny it, but considered it a raost capital joke_ Mypride prevented me from ever again desiring to see Emma or ask for any explanation. She is now Plena - lag's wife, and having been my only passion, I expect ever to occupy "lodg- ings for single gentlemen." Love is an angel, but Limburger is a devil. tice of the peace, fully authorized bylaw to solerenizethe rite tif matrimony. He was at his house waiting for something to turn up. No dela,y was necessary. Ile went immediately to the place where he was told his services were required: No license is necessary for marriage in this State. He called the young parties into the middleef theparlor floor. With a few words solemnly spoken, and in due form of law, he pronounced the words that made six three, and ;united forgver the destinies of these adventur- ous couples. When the ceremony haabeen perf6rm- ed, one of the ladies declared that she had never been party "to such a jolly joke in all her born days." - "joke !" exclaimed the judge ; .'joke! If you think you'll findthis a joke you are very rauCh roistearett. You're.• tied as tight as Hainan was when he was hunge, . _ max-rying in Fun. • The good people of La Vette and vi- cinity have been considerably exercised of late over a tripple wedding which oc- curred at that place last Monday night under most peculiar circumstances. F. D. Mc,Hollaral, E. A. Palmer,andanoth- er young gentleman whose name has not yet reached Denver, were calling. on three young ladies named respectively Kate Lewis, Melia Patterson and Laura Patterson. The conversation ranged upon the general topics of the day for a ehort -While, but they gradually paired off, Mr. Mcliolland and. Miss Lewis oc- cupying one corner of the room, Mr. Pahner and Miss Addle Patterson an- other, and the third. gentleman and. Miss Laura Patterson still another. Allpro- ceedeil merrily, Mr. Mcliollestul gradu- ually got mimed up to his subject, aud ex -claimed, dining a brief general con: versation : " Wouldn't it be nice for us an to be married?" ; " Wouldn't it now," said one of the "Just the thing," said an.other gen- tleman. " Put `er thar, pard," said his friena. " Weil. now, this is "'gaily growingin- teresthae' from oue of the ladies, - suppose well be married before morn- ; Mg." "Yes,' responded the first s-peaker, " married auil well of it." " Shall Igo for the doctor?" asked one of the gentlemen, Chorus.-." Yes, make no delay. Let no dust stick to the bottom of your soles. Its a desperate case." And off he went. AinI this • fun though," queried one of the girls, as the interested messenger was seen to turn the corner. " The 'oiliest game," saidthe sec- ond. -The messenger flew with the speed of Mercury himself. W. A. Toffelnaise vtas the 'doctor' before whom he laid! the case. Now, Mr. Toffelnaire is a jus - I No joke! Horrors !' What a time for taints! Blank looks took the places of joyous ,countenances. The pulses of. the young ladies fell below zero fronathe boiling point in an instant. They had not intended to be married, but they . I , were. It was a joke, and such a joke as p. others might laugh At ore than those directly interested.. he, ladies were ye -mg and had not dr amed of matri- mony. besides it is said, that one of them was engagedto a young man who had been, digging asWay in the San Juan mines for the last year with .the hope of getting money enough to set up house- keeping. But what is to be done? Di- vorce is the only alternative. The mar- ried people have not lived together and. the gentlemen were required. to go to their respective homes on Sunday night, before tune to retire, as usual. It isun- derstood that proceedings:will at once be commenced. to obtain pa,pera that will set them free again. What plea will he urged it cannot be stated, but in the present condition of the minds of the young ladies, there is no doubt that that of incompatibility of temper would . prove a good one. !- . 1.' :Mr. MeHolland is Deputy Sheriff of Huerfano county, Mi. Palmer is ilsgent for the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad. at La Veta, and the other gentleman is connected with a; saw mill. The ladies reside at La Veta-. * ' A Woman's Opinion of How Men Dres•§.. Fashion never. inveilisa a more un- physiological garnaent than that which for a mita-ter of a aeriturY has been the distinguishing glory of the wiser sex. Tens of thonsands of men suffer from wearing its agonies quite as - acute as any that women inflict upon themselves by their suicidal:dress i and it is prob- able that doctorknow the cauae or ag- gravation of their trouble, just As they know the ailments of woinen, and feel that the patient would endure any amount of suffering, and death itself, rather than wear unfashionAble gar- ments. . I -1 We have much talk (tf the ' conveni- ence of "pull backs;" bat who ever saw a man lift anything frem the' ground without taking both hands to draw up his pantalOons, so as to .ilaske room -for the bend of his knees, and. feeling that he risked his suspender buttons, and accommodated his motions to the fear of losing there? Day by day our most sensible men get into garments which interfere with motion to pNy brit an up- right position,- quite as much as the most ultra " pull-back" iwein by the sil- liest butterfly of fashion.' i They also dis- tort their figure quite as reueli as do women. Suppose one of them were made with lower limbs of bylindrical - form 1 How would. he feel about it? How would he use a pair of legs as thick at the ankles as above the knee? -Yet this is the shape they all make them- selves.' They alsc, put on long boots ain4 pantaloons over them—thus conducting the gasses from the fe-et aroun.dthe body a,nd keeping it in a foul vapor bath. . There is no more aPpropriate covering ; for a man's foot and leg than A cavalry . boot, but it should be worn with knee breeches, and the top fastened up to the belt. Pantaloons and long boots are nob made to go together ; and. the pan- taloens in any casie is an awkward con- trivAnee, always I flOpping arp-und the ankle, impeding lieceinotion and catch- ing dirt. 1 1 1 Next, eansider the 'physiologioalprop- -ertsies of a rnoderi shirt -which; covers . the chest with a s al? of , linen aa imper- vious to _light arid ' air as a ; marble head atone!

The idea suggested is Miat of a Mixture, - and women are sad caricatures of hu- manity. . ' 1 Women bear their bondage more easi- ly then men. for one never sees a wo- man la public try to relieve the 'pressure on her poor pincbed sides; bat one sel- dom talks ten minutes with a, man with- out seeing him irim his 'finger& around betwe0i his pinched neek and inflexible collar [of servitude.

Take it all in all, I carmot see that wo- man would gain anything by adopting a masculine .costume, and think the brethren may be at ease in their pos- sessions.

Brady, the photographer, tells me the folio win bCf -anecdote a,bout,Genera,1 Grant, *Mali Ido not recollect ever to have seen before: The General was expeed in the East r at the close 'of the Vicks urg campaign, and the newspaper reporters at Wash- ington Were` not acquainted with his countenance, and feared that they might miss him when the cars, came in with the usual crowd of passiengers in war times: Brady -was called upon by the Bohemians and asked. if he could not go down to the train. and identify the great soldier. In a minute Brady recog- nized General Grant, put him in a car- riage and started down -the avenue. No public dignitaries were present to re- ceive the future President. Grant said. he would come down during the day and ea for his picture. They got ready for him in thegallery, but the afternoon glided on until the light lost its strength and the whole photogra,phip establish- ment was in a state of suspeaPe lest the hero of the hour might not be rendered in form as he was. Finally, as it drew on to half -past 4, steps were beard on the stairs, and Secretary Stanton ap- peared. "Brady," he said, "are you all ready here for General Grant? We will go right up." The whole photographic establish- ment started up with the great man, and he was placed itt a good position -With half a dozen cameras bearing upo-a him to take him all at once,. and as the light bad. now grown weak, Brady sent a German assistant upon. the roof to pull back the skylight to its full length. The man was in such a state of excite- ment in the presence of General Grant, and for fear Brady wonld lose the pic- ture that he stumbled. on the sky -light, and fell 'full length, knocking immense pieces out of the plate glass, "any one of which," said Brady, "had it struck Grant, might have killed him." While everybody else started up with exclam- ations, Grant never moved; except a slightly satirical curl of his lip, not a feature changed. • " I ahall never forget that man," said l3rady, "and that look."---Letcer to the Cincinnati In' iquirer. The Father of Thirty Children. The Strobl 'family of this county' is probably the largest in the United States. . The head of the housees Nich- olas Strobl, a Pennsylvania German, uow about76 years old. By three wives • he has had 30 children, 27 of whom are living. His first wife presented him with. 8, his second with 11, and the third with 11. The youngest Child is DOW three .years old, and was born when his father was 73 years old. Of the 27 children, 19 are married. and 'their families aver- age about- eight- children. Mr. Joel Strobl, one of the well-known farmers in the lower end, and child of hie fath- er's first ,wife, has 17 children, and is not an old man, by any means. He is the father of two pairs of twius, a distinc- tion which his father, Mr. Nicholass Strohl, never attained. If the families shOuld gather together there would be over 200 persons.
