An Elopement and » Duel. A Beautiful Yeung Wife’s Infatua tion, (Corr. N. Y. Gray hie.) Saratoga, August 16. —I saw in a Washing ton newspaper yesterday that a sensational piece of gossip was agitating the upper circles of the capital city, and gave as the dramatis personnoe an ex-volunteer officer, who lost an arm in the war, and his wife, whose rather serious flirta tion with a secretary of a foreign legation had caused the husband and lover to fight a duel abroad. A gentleman here, who has an exten sive acquaintance abroad, and a correspondence with those likely to be conversant with the facts, tells me that the husband (whose father is one of the most honored citizena of Rhode Island) and the lover (who is first secretary of the lega tion, from Central Europe), have really fought a duel, in which neither was hurt. The hns- band, it seems, had the first fire, and either missed his aim or voluntarily spared his adver sary, when the other fired into the air. The wife, it is averred, has now eloped with her lover. I was introduced to him by her in the presence of her husband, in their own parlor, in the spring of 1876, when the Belknap scandal was in every one’s mouth. The lady, whose delica cy of coloring and feature and refined antece dent would suggest at once a tender nature, shocked myself and the lady who was calling with me, by saying with emphasis: ‘If I had been Mrs. Belknap and had Marsh in my house that nigbt before he gave his testimony, know ing he had secrets, which would ruin me in his keeping, I would have seized a pistol and marched him to a third story window and said: “Jump, or I will fire instantly,” I tell you,’ she added with a little more vim, ‘he should never have left my presence alive.’ I wrote of this speech to the Graphic at the time, and contrast ed with its deadly vengeance Mrs. Belknap's actual conduct that night when she stood by Marsh’s bed (he having a severe nervous chill) and ordered hot bricks for his feet, and herself saw him made comfortable before she retired to a night of such anxious suspense as few women would bear and retain sanity. I first heard of her thus ministering to her enemy from anoth er, and when I asked her about it she said, sim ply, • What else could I do ? The man was ill in my house. He was scared half to death.’ To return to the lady who is believed to be now travelling with her lover, between whom and herself a maddening love is said to have ex isted long before the husband made the discov ery. Her grandfather was once on the United States Supreme Bench, and her father an officer in the regular army. At seventeen she was a beauty and was wooed and married by a gallant young officer, who was killed at Antietam, after having passed one or two months with his young wife. If I mistake not, he was mortally wounded in the battle but did not die until af ter hiR wife arrived, and she witnessed such harrowing scenes by his death-bed and amid the horrors of the battle-field, as made me won der when they were told me by her cousin, a few months later, how she survived. At that time, 1863, I heard of her daily; she had become a mother, and rarely left the room, where she spent her time with her babe and daily knelt before the picture of its father, beneath which she kept a fresh bequet constantly standing on a white draped table. The widow was too young and too handsome to be permitted long to wear her weeds, and in the course of two or three years was again the wife of an officer of the volunteer service, who, after the war, was for some time engaged in engineering duties, if I mistake not, on the isthmus. This is her present husband. What is Portalinef This question is thus briefly and truthfully answered. Portaline, or Tabler’s Vegetable Liv er Powder, derives its name from the fact that it regulates those portals of the body through which the most dangerous diseases make their entranoe into the human system. Simple roots and herbs, for which we are indebted to bounti ful nature, have been scientifically combined, and presented as a cure to all suffering with Constipation, Biliousness, Dyspepsia, and all diseases arising from a torpid liver.

Now that the medical properties of the Buck eye are clearly established, and utilized for the cure of Piles, why not make a direct application of its healing virtues in the form of Tabler’s Buckeye Pile Ointment and be cured ? This preparation is made from the alkaloid of the Buckeye, or Horse Chestnut, and, combined with other ingredients, is offered to the public as a cure for nothing else but Piles.

Negro Superstition* The small houses on Watson stre et, between Central avenue and Little Gough street, are in habited by negroes, who have been intensely ex cited for several days past by the nefarious prac tice of a so-called conjurer. The person upon whom the denizens of Watson street believe the conjurer has laid his spell is a young colored woman named Julia Green, born in St. Mary’s county, Md. When the Bulletin reporter met her v esterday, she certainly had the appearance of being a woman who had suffered terribly from some mysterious cause. Thin, even to emacia tion, her hands were long and skeleton-like in their wanness, while her e^es wore an anxious, restless expression, as if she felt the presence of some terrible malady. While speaking she seem ed deeply affected, and talked in a way that showed she had no hope save from superhuman source. She says she came to Baltimore about twelve years ago, and up to withiu four months past had been living with a man named Henry Clayton, by whom she had two children. About a year ago Clayton neglected Julia and commen ced going with a woman named Maggie Mitchell. This created ill-feeling between them, and one day the woman Mitchell came to her house, No 76, Watson street, and pushing open the door, came in and began to fight her. In the melee which ensued, Maggie pulled out a handful of Julia’s hair. After they were separated Maggie stooped down,dipped it in some of Julia’s blood which had been spilt upon the floor, and going out remarked: ‘I will fix you yet.’ Soon after this Clayton went to live with the woman Mitch ell, who continued to make threats against her. One day, about four months ago, while Julia was sitting in the kitchen with Clayton’s moth er, she was suddenly seized with intense pains all through her body; her mind wandered and her left arm became paralyzed. Since then she has had similar sensations repeatedly, while her body, which was strong and fleshy when the at tacks commenced, has wasted away to a shadow. Last Friday, while the children were playing in the yard, one of them dug up a bottle. In it was a rough figure of herself cut out of some kind of red cloth, the hair which Maggie Mitchell had pulled from her head, and a dark looking liquid. She had no doubt this was the conjurers charm, and became almost wild with joy when she first saw it She has been feeling much better ever since, and believes if the bottle can be kept safe she will get well. The policemen on the beat wanted to break the bottle open to see what was in it, but all the old people said if it was broken the person for whom the spell was intended would surely die very soon. When the bottle was first found the negroes in the neighborhood crowded into the small house to get a look at the mysterious contents, and for a while the street in front was completely lined with a mass of ea ger and excited darkies. Josh Billings (Henry W. Shaw) is reported to have made more mon^y than almost any Amer ican author, by the persistent working of his pe culiar vein of humor. Some years he has got $4 COO from a weekly newspaper for his exclu sive contributions; has made £5,000 or $6,000 by lecturing, and has had a profit from his Al manac of $8,000 or SO,000 more—$10,000 to $20 000 per annnm. That is five or six times as much as Emerson, Hawthorne. Lowell, or Holmes has ever made; and, yet we dare say, there are some persons who will insist that those authors have nearly as much genius and culture as Josh Billings himself.
