This so wrought upon his mind, that rather than to huvo his corn levied upon he choso death rather than life, and to this end he deliberately hung him self, as above stated.” Darien's Prohibition Election. , Darien, the rottenest holo in the State, has had a vote on the prohibition question, and tho vote stood: For the site, 657; against tho sale, 46; majority for tho sole, 511.

For months past Mr. Harrison Cook, an indnstrions and intelligent yonng carpen ter of the Fourth ward, has been the favored snitor for the heart anil hand of Mias Jennie, pretty brown eyed maiden residing in the same ward, a daughter of Mr. Marion Brown. The yonng lover had gained the consent of the father to the union the yonng conple desired. But tho mother objected. And thns matters stood Monday night when Mr. Brown and his son David Brown, came over to see the fascinating female minstrels. White they were at the sjiow Mr. Harrison Cook and Miss Jennie Brown met at the house of Mr. Elligin Cook, and were duly married. At 11:30 o'clock Mr. Brown and bis son rctnrned home from the opera to find that their littlo bird had flown from its home nest. The father and son went directly to Mr. Cook's, entered the briilsl chamber, lifted the bride from her couch anil carried her Isick home. The bridegroom sent in hot haste for Dep uty Sheriff Jake Moore, who responded to the midnight summons. Going before Jus tice George Harris Mr. Cook swore out a warrant for the arrest of Mr. Brown on the charge of assaulting his wife. Armed with this warrant Officer Moore, accompanied by Mr. Cook and several friends, repaired to the Brown mansion. At first Mr. Brown Hjsitively refused to nilmit the officer- But >eing assured that if bo did not open tne door it would be knocked open, he turned the lock, and Mr. Moore stepped into what proved to bo Mr. and Mrs. Brown's bed room. Tlie young bride was in bed with her mother, and, Mr. Moore says, was cry ing ss if her heart would break. Mr. Moore explained to Mr. Brown that he had a warrant for his arrest and would be compelled to take him to jail. “All right, take me to jail; but Cock can' get Jennie,” replied the stern father. “Why, be will get her just ss quick as I can take you from the house," said tho pro voking Jake Moore. “But Mr, Mr. Cook, who is on the outside, does not core to make any trouble, snd has authorized me to diop tho matter if yon wi allow him to take home his wife and will never trouble them again." This Mr. Brown at last consented to, rnvided Cook would wait and come for his ride next day. But this did not suit the tho young husband—he wanted an uncom ditionsl surrender of his property. Sir. Moore referred the matter to the sobbing bride, who promptly deelded in favor of her husband. The father surrendered, and the happy young married couple were es- eorted hack home by Mr. Sloora.—Rome Bulletin. The beautiful maiden 1* shopping to-day.

Tho marshal was up stairs, and Johnson climbed the circling steps to look for soma one to whom be conld surrender. Mr. S. B. Adams, his oonnsel, introduced Johnson to the conrt officials, whom a fall of manna would not have surprised more. .... Ever since the raid through the Long Fond country, on October 22, Johnson has been very much wanted by the authorities. He was said to be the leader of the crowd that fired on Deputy Collector Clem ents, Deputy Marshals Wall, Bose, snd the negro guide from McBride's store, st midnight of Thursday, October 22.
