SEQUEL TO THE VICARY OF LOVE.
The sailor boy of yesterday's gossip, came to this office this morning, and having purchased several of yesterday's Bulletin, gratuitously gave a few pointers about himself and his landlady. The sailor is a man of about 27. He admits that he is a deserter from the Adams, and that he had taken a room with a private family. But declares that he was not in love with his landlady, for her age is too great and her family too numerous. Neither is she in love with him. She is suing for a divorce, but not on account of the sailor. The husband also testifies that infidelity is not a charge which he could make.
