[S.s.onataywest .-here whilo (1 onfd to Mealpyw.On Monday before tlic Tuesday ou which they were to be married, (Tuesday being rlic end of the three weeks) the j father of the girl went to a neighbor to thresh clover, bat before he went he gave his wife what money he hud, to purchase such things na his daughter should need for the wedding the next day. Earl Maulove was at the Butler home at that time ami remained there until nearly noon.During the day tho young girl was taken ill, the result of the criminal operation upon her, aud when her lnbor-pairm were increasing, Earl Maulove told her that slic was “coming around all right, and that he would not marry her. He also told the mother of the young girl that he did not intend to many her daughter, aud then got ou bis wheel and went to his home in Couuersvillu.When Mr. Bu1lercauiehome.be found instead of an mr.iDgcmout for the mar-riage of bis daughter, that his little girl was likely to die from tin* offoctaj-of a erituin.d operation, and learning his wife aud daughter the above «pft, ho immcdiutly caused the arrest of ^ie young man. For four days this young girl's life was despaired of, but she got well—hence we have escaped a Pearl Bryan case in Henry county.Nov, after this young map is arrested, after this young girl has passed through the volley aud shadow of death; after the State’s prison is staring young Mania the face; after helms slandered this young girl, and that, too, after twenty-six people, old and young, had testified that Nellie Butler's reputation for virtue and chasity was good and above reproach before, this event occurred—then tliis young mail comes in and offers to marry the injured p.irty 1Would it bo a righteous niamago? Was his offer in good fnith, to atone for wrong ho had do/ie this yonng girl? We think not, but rather to escape a just punishment for liis crime.There was a time when marriage with this young lady would have been aright-eoua one, and thut was at the time when the father and mother of' Miss Butler asked and begged him to marry her. The father aud mother of this young girl never, at any time, when Nellie Butler wanted to marry the defendant, objected. Would Nellie Butler many him now? Would you? Would any true father and mother consent that theirbank when money is to be sent away. It is au expensive substitute, for the cost of Buch exchange is high. Moreover, tho money-order department is not infrequently used as a depository for small savings—expensively again, for the depositor, instead of getting interest, is compelled to pay for the aoooptanoe of his deposit. That many are willing so to do shows the force of the public demand for a postal savings system.Fell In ltultle 20.000 Yean.
