A Wealthy Citisen rued by a Lady of Cin cinnati for failing to perform the Mar riage Contract—Amorous Correspondence —Gradation of affection and estrange ment. A suit us; recently commenced in the Superior Court of this city, which promises in its developments to excite an interest, beyond the ordinary cur rent of legal matters. It probably in volves some of the dollars of the accu mulated sum to the credit of the account of Mr. Elisha C. Sprague, a real estate dealer of this city, who, it his own state ment be correct, is worth at the present value of property about half a million. He is at least understood to be the own er of a block of buildings near the Adapts o,ue ’ for which, in the month of Aagnat,he was oßeiud $22,000 yearlj rental. Mir. Sprague is charged with having made a promise of marriage which he has neglected to perform, and which he now refuses to acknowledge. He is brought into court, perhaps, by a little strategy, but, if he be found guilty, so tightly that the lie pendeus will prevent him from disposing of the ample means he has brought together. The complainant is a lady of Cincinnati, Ohio, and the action is one of assumption, for breach of promise. The lady was born in the city of Cin cinnati, where she has resided with her parents to the present time. She has been, during six years preceding the al leged promise of marriage, a teacher in the Newport Seminary. The defendant was aD old friend of the family, bat his acquaintance with the daughter had a more recent origin. Seven years since, iu the days of luxurious peace, and be fore he made money from the purses of soldiers daring the war, he commenced a course of * lover-like conduct. He called often to see her then, acknowl edged himself as a suitor, and wrote her tender epistles, in which from “my dear” he progressed to the ecstacy of love-like language, aqd addressed her as “My dear and ever remembered aud cherished love.” Then he always spoke of the happiness of a married life, if only she would share it. Id April or May of 1865, the defend ant returned from the wars. He is said to have been about there busy with speculation. He had made Nashville bis home, and he had written letters. In these the plaintiff was ‘‘ray ever dear Manday,” and he closed with prayers and benediction, and with the reminder that “I am yours with my affection.” His home, be it wherever it was, he made money. He returned a man of ■wealth, and he engaged himself to the young lady. He proceeded so far as having gained her heart, to ask and re ceive the consent and blessings of her mother and brother, the existence of her father, as is usual in these fast days, being ignored. It was then agreed that the fall of the year, the days when the need pf companionship is felt, should see the twain flesh made one. Tk« plaintiff thus engaged, resigned her situation as teacher. She could do little else when so short a space of time was allowed, by the anxiety of her lover, is which to pro pare the par«phernals4 of the day. About three times he wrote her as “My dear love,” and prayed on paper thus: “Oh Lord, who art iu Heaven, bless our 2 harts and souls. He with us, and guide us, and protect us. E. C. Spra." Having faith in her lover's honor, every preparation was made lor the nuptial cenemhnj, hut the hymcoiuL alter was not graced with the presence of the wealthy groom. A letter came instead ; he was busy “on my houses,” but his love was overflowing, and the cry was, under even such circumstances of mortification, “I have bought about fifty thousand dollars worth of property, or in other words, contract**! for it. >1 got sick running round tin:’ towrt'tn the hot rum shops. * * * Hut there lire better days efiming. You are my dear and best beloved, anil respected and honored in my heurt, my dear.” Time elapsed. The bridal garments and the orange blossom wreaths were laid aside for future use, for from the 15th of September to the 22d of Febru ary the defendant wrote he would, and never breathed he wouldn't. He pro posed to be in Cincinnati “anon, anon, sia,” but lie never went. II in words were, “1 will be in your town soon,” but the greater hVeach included the lesser. Chicago afforded him a resting-place and a safe deposit for his means, and here he stayed, penning letters, words, aud paragraphs of lava until unable to longer pul off the day, he was “carried'' by hi# uncle to see hie “Doc” iu Boston. llow much this forced absence grievbd hint, ha aloae can tell. ’ lie wrote his love from there that his heart was aoliing, and he has felt hndly for not writing for two days. Even oil the day he penned these lines, he says: “I h ive looked at yoar likeness in that locket twelve dosen times.’' About.this time, too, he wishes he had wings to fly to her, that be might be with her for ever. During the following April, the promise went forth, that in ten days or two weeks the tnuhlcss one would re turn. Money was required, hat its pay ment was a thing quite sure, and no delay could intervene between tl>Q hope of the accomplishment #f hW happiness and his happiuess itself. He went to Cincinnati, left suddenly, and Porkopo lis saw him no more. His plaoa was in part recompensed by epistles running the gasuut from lore to coolness. “My ever dear love,” resolved itself into “My dear Amanda,” hence, to “My dear.” His passion began to cool, or his in clination to marry to subside, and he met his betrothed in tho city ou the 10th ofJnlr, with some show of affection, bnt with, it is alleged, a false intention. He engaged to meet her, but he didn't. He sloped—he went—he flickered, it is said, to Detroit. He directed letters from Mackinaw, but the steru authori ties of the postal departmeuUstaniped them in large letters “Detroit, Mich.,” and in these he was till in love, but sunk Jeep in sorrow, as the following speci men will show: “Oh, Lord Code, I pray to the to take the bitter (cup) from my lips. 0! Manday, iff I could take ray love from could be happy once more, butt as itt is I know it will be the cause of my death, (fair well), fair wall, fair well, may God bless you.” The lady uow reminded the gentle man of his promise. He had made none, but as he said, “I can fight my weight in wild cats,” such a suitor could not he tolerated, if suitor he had remained. The yonng lady did imt consider herself Untamed animal af the feline order, so she brought her suit, and the man who last said in writing, “Oh, I rohst quit writing this letter. My brains are burning, my eyes are getting dim,” and erases the words, “and my heart is over flowing with love,’’ and places in their stead eight distinct lines of “leaders,” stands before the court to answer for his slight and slip. Circulating the Monet Paper.— At a recent temperance meeting an amusing incident took place. A strange exhortation had bceu delivered by a speaker present, and the President re quested the Secretary to pass around the pledge for signatures, and taking from his pocket what he supposed was the document, he, without looking at it gave it -to the Secretary for that purpose. A large number of names were enrolled of both ladies and gentlemen present, and the document returned. It was ob served by the Secretary, while passing around the paper, that considerable tittering was to he observed among the ladies, who took the precaution to read the contents of the paper, while those who did not read it, and desired to sign, did so. After going through the con gregation, the Secretary, on his way back, looked at the paper to see what was the cause of the amusement, when it was revealed to him that, instead of the temperance pledge, he had passed around and received signatures to a document setting forth the pedigree of a celebrated stallion. Where Baby Came Prom.—Not a thousand miles from Augusta, was re cently born a beautiful baby—a fine girl. Such an event had not occurred iu the family in the space of five or more years, and the consequence was, the little stranger’s advent created ho little surprise and excitement among the younger of its brothers, the bright est and most inquisitive of whom—a boy of five summers— busied himself with trying to ascertain from every visitor where baby came from. He at last obtained, what was to him a satis factory answer, as will appear from the following conversation between the youngster and hia.aqnt. U Aunh—“WeM, Joknnic, where did this fine baby come from ?”„ Nephew—“l don't know, aunt, but Mrs. —— says she brought it here, having found it in the creek over there.” ! .'Aunt—“ln the j” Nephew—“ Yes. auntie, in the creek. I wondered how it could be in the water without being drowned, and Mrs. —i— says it had drifted ugainst a log, and that saved it until she got to it. it's very strange it didn’t get drowned, ain’t it, Auntie ?'* baying which the little fellow went to play. —“Sam," said Cteiar, as the two liable wages were taking an intellectual stroll together onp Sunday afternoon, “Sam, I tink I'se got de recognition of one of the white folks' hard wonU.” “Wot’s dat, Cmsar 7” I Ob, I got him dis tiins, nhtifbi Ybu see, Sam, di/ i« the our ’stingiHsked Kuddorn emporiupi.

We beg to eall the attention of the pub lic to this long tested and unrivalled FAMILY MEDICINE. The PAIN KILLER is a purely vegeta ble compound ; and while it Is a most e - cient Remedy for Pain, it lea perfectly safe Medicine even in the most unskillful hands. FOR SUMMER COMPLAINT, Or any other form of bowel disease in ehil-> dren or adults, it is an almost certain cure, and has, without doubt, been more success ful in curing the various kinds of CHOLERA than any other known remedy, or eren the most skillful physician. In India, Africa and China, where this dreadful disease is ever more or lets prevalent, the PAIN KtLLER is considered by the natives, as well as Eu ropean residents in those climates, a SURE REMEDY. Asa Tonic for the Stomach, it is unrivalled. A few doses will relieve se vere cases of INDIGESTION, and it is often a perfect enr^for DYSPEPSIA, in Us most aggravated forms. Its tonic and stimulating properties, arousing the system to vigor and action, render it a most effec tual cure for COLDS AND COUGHS, when used according to directions. For external applications, it is unsur passed by any medical preparation. Rheumatism and Neuralgic Affections are quickly relieved and often cured by it. Any Soreness in the Muscles or Joints can be relieved by its application. It cures in stantly the most violent TOOTHACHE. It sbonld always be kept near at hand, to be used in cases of severe BURNS or SCALDS. If applied immediately, accord ing to directions, it will give instant relief, and prevent blistering.
