In a certain church a certain man
caused the banns of marriage to be
published between himself and a lady
to whom ho is not engaged and who
has no intention to marry him, say3
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
He is poor and has no credit. She is
| wealthy and at the time of the publica-
tions of the banns was in E' ope. The
effect of the announcement waslnstan-
i taneous. The man's credit revived,
| congratulations poured in, and for a
few weeks he had a delightful lif%
*Ihen cv me a letter from the lady in the
case. She denied her engagement to
the audacious and penniless one and
threatened to bring^iroceedings against
him for libel. Put suppose he pieada
that he had hopes of the lady* who can
prove that ho had not? Then few per-
sons understand the real object of pub-
lishing the Iffinns. It is popularly
thought that they are made public to
bring out such facts as whether either
party has been previously married and
,has a partner still alive or whether
they are under age. The true object
of banns being published was to givo
