From the Brooklyn Eagle. i lady who had 1 knew a young everything which usually constitutes the happiness of those who have not yet climbed the golden stairs of matrimonial paradise. Her age was 20; she was a brunette, of graceful figure, with a peculiarly animated ex pression of countenance. Her com plexiou was rich and warm, her large grey &yes were merry, and her features would pass muster arnoDg sculptors. At receptions held in the armory of the Twenty third Regi ment she was always observed with admiring interest, and she had beaux by the score.■- Well, at length she ctme to a decision, and I heard of her marriage. I knew the young man whom she choose, and I was startled. That was five years ago. A year ago I was riding up town on a car. The car was crowded, and I stood by the front door reading. I heard my name pronounced and looked down but did not at first recognize the face, which was faintly smiling at me. It was weirdly pale and care worn. I looked puzzled for a few moments, and then it dawned on me that this was the wreck of one of the prettiest girls in Brooklyn. I accorn panied her as far as the door of her house. It was a tenement house. “I won‘t invite you in to day,” she said: “my rooms are somewhat dis ordered," „ I said nothing, but I understood. It was pitiful to see her try to keep up the pretence of being light heart ed. happy and prosperous. A week ago I heard that her husband was in fh« lunatic asylum and her baby dead. Now she has gone home to begin life over again. She had mar ried a man to reform him. If the gentleman whose tips pressed the la dy’s snowy brow and thus caught a severe cold had but used Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup, no doctor's bill would have been necessary. -• •- some trenius proposes to iutroduee papsr shirts.
