Stewart, of Gordon county, Ga. Thus it is with life. One after another of the votaries at the shrine of Cupid is immolated upon his altar.—Our esteemed friend, Joseph, passed out of the state of “single wretchedness” into one of “double blessedness.” With out a sigh or a struggle and the places and persons that once knew him—especially those of “sweet sixteen” or upward, who have been the objects of his tenderest regards—will know him no more, as a lively and gallant beaux. Weep not! fair ones, for your loss is another gentle sister’s gain, but be contented with the thought that If Joseph loves another— The happy twain have out warmest congratulations on the happy alliance they have formed, as well as out heart-felt gratitude for their kindness and hospitality to us during our brief sojourn with them at their beautiful residence in the lovely and picturesque valley of the Oothcaloga. May their days be as happy as their home is beautiful. |
