"'Wait, wait. Number nine boots brought me. I've come for you, Angie.' "'You will be arrested if you are seen here, I am afraid,' she said. "'Then meet me to-night at ---- Crossing, and fly with me.' "I then told her how I had lived, how I had suffered, and how much I loved her; and she consented to marry me, and secretly go away with me. But the difficulty now lay in getting a lawful man to marry us. The license could be bought; I was certain of that. So I went away and obtained it. I next hired a horse and carriage, and paid for it in advance, to go twelve miles. "'Aren't you Charley ----?' asked the stable man, eying me sharply, as I was about to drive away to get Angie, that night. "'Take this,'--and I gave him a gold piece,--'and ask no questions, nor answer any, till you see your horse and carriage safely back,' was my reply. "As we drove out of the village, I heard wagon wheels far behind us. Reaching the woods, I drove into a wood road, and the 'hounds of the ---- doctors' rode fiercely past. Angie trembled for my safety. I reached a cross road. The moon shone quite brightly, and, jumping from the buggy, I soon found, by the fresh track, which road they had taken. I took a different. So I reached a train that night, and rode till morning; arrived at W. the next, and was married." It was at W. that I found him first. He was smart. He had a good memory. He was a handsome man, full six feet in his stockings. In all, his address was not excelled by any physician with whom I have ever met. He is now an excellent physician and surgeon, in a large city, in good practice. When he returned on a visit to his native village, as he did last year, the affair had blown over; for after a man is honored abroad, he may become so at home,--seldom before. I wish him happiness and prosperity. "There is no greater rogue than he who marries only for money; no greater fool than he who marries only for love. I could marry any lady I like, if I would only take the trouble," Dr. Macilvain heard an old fellow say. Of course, nobody but a conceited old bachelor would have said that, who needs a woman to just take some of the self-conceit out of him. ENGLISH DOCTORS AS BEAUS. Some of the old English doctors were gay fellows amongst the ladies, according to the best authorities. Nevertheless, few men have arrived at eminence in the medical profession who were known to be afflicted with an overplus of romantic or sentimental qualities in their composition.
