A Swrct Marriage.
Bliss Annie Claudine Whitmore was
the daughter of a wealthy planter, W.
H. Whitmore, living near Dalton, Ga.
She was the youngest of five children—
three sons and two daughters—and was
educated at a convent in St Louis. Soon
after she graduated she met Capt. Wal
lingford of the United States army and
married him. The Captain,immediate*
! y after marriage, was ordered to the
far West, whore he served until his
death, which occurred just before the
Modoc campaign. His widow, then on
ly twenty years of age, and as beautiful
as the moon on her fourteenth night,
went to Waslrngton City, where she
reigned an acknowledged belle. Her
regal beauty and queenly accomplish
ments fascinated all who came in con
tact with her, and rendered her the ad*
mired of the envy of women
at the national capital. Proffers of mar
riage greeted her on every hand.
A young gentleman with only his
father’s name to recommend him had
succeeded in winning her affections be
fore she went to Washington. In fact
her only object in locating at tho capi
tal was to be near this lover. While on
the plains with her first husband, whom
she married when too young to realize
the magnitude of the step, she was in<-
troduced to W. 11. Tiffany, eldest son
of Dr.Tiffany,pastor of the Metropolitan
M. E. Church in Washington. Mr.
Tiffany ;vas employed in the transaction
of Government business which required
his presence with the army. A few
weeks association sufficed to render Mr.
Tiffany and Mrs. Capt. Wallingford
deeply attached to each other, hut the
wise and stringent Jaws of society,which
prescribes the duties of a wife to her
husband, compelled all expressions, or
even intimation of their mutual admira
tion to be suppressed.
His business finished, Mr. Tiffany re
turned to Washington, and the young
wife remained at the dreary military
post, now rendered distressingly lone
some to her, with her husband. A few
weeks later disease appeared in the
camp, and one of its first victims was
Cap*. Wallingford. The rites of burial
over, Mrs. Wallingford repaired to her
father’s residence, where passed the pe
riod of mourning. She then took up
her residence at Washington. Among
the many satellites that revolved around
the reigning social star was Mr. Tiffany.
He became the accepted lover of the
roval widow, and she retired from
Washington society and returned to
her father’s to prepare again for mar
riage.
Here she encountered an obstacle
not calculated upon. Her father bitter
ly opposed the match and flatly refused
his consent. Not that he had any ob
jections to tho prospecting groom, but
that he opposed his daughter’s marry*
ing again, prefering that she should
pass the remainder of her life with him.
He soon had all the family won to his
opinion, and the lady had either to re
linquish her lover or defy her family.
She compromised the difficulty by agree
ing to a postponement, and so notified
Mr.Tiffany. He gracefully yielded and
the objecting parent was appeased.
Soon after this Mrs. Wallingford revis
ited Washington and efficiently used
her influence with the President in ob
taining for Mr. Tiffany a commission in
the regular army, for which he had ap
plied. The Rev. Dr. Tiffany was pas
tor of the church which President
Grant regularly attended. The rever
end gentleman’s popularity with the
President, aided by the efforts of
Mrs. Wallingford, obtained the prom
ise of a commission.
In compliance with this promise Mr.
Tiffany was promoted from civilian to
lieutenant in the Tenth Regular Cavalry.
His commission was issued in March
and towards the last of April he was
ordered to report for duty at St. Louis.
While in Chicago, en route to this city,
Lieut, Tiffany met Mrs. Wallingford,
who was returning from a visit to rela
tions and friends in Leavenworth, Kan
sas. The meeting was purely accident
al, but none the less joyous to the lov
ers. The lieutenant proposed to the
lady that she accompany him to St.
Louis, where they would be secretly
married. His powers of persuasion,
aided by her earnestness and affection,
at last overcame her scruples and she
consented.
The two arrived at this city,and Mrs.
Wallingford took rooms at the South
ern Hotel, while her husband elect re
ported at the arsenal, lie spent sever*
al days in making preparation for the
clandestine marriage. lie used every
precaution to prevent the affair from be
coming public, and most effectually
did he succeed. An attache of the ho
tel was taken in confidence, and invited
to attend the wedding. At 8 o’clock
on the evening of June the l,a carriage
was in waiting at the hotel to convey
the candidates for the matrimonial yoke
to the minister’s residence. The lady
and gentleman descended the stairs arm
in arm, and their elegant attire attract
ed the attention of all the guests. The
lady wore a light lavender colored silk
dress with loug trail, trimmed with cost
ly white lace and looped with white
flowers; white kid gloves and the usual
bridal veil. Her ornaments were dia
mond earrings and necklace, a large sol
itaire diamond and a plain gold ring.
The groom was attired in the customa
ry suit of black. The party was then
driven to the residence of Rev. Dr. C
A. Van Anda, pastor of the Union
Methodist Church, who is an old and
valued friend of a small party composed
of Dr. Van Anda’s family and three
ministers, the two who had faithfully
loved each other for more than three
years, aad against whose union even fate
itself seemed to have conspired, were
united iu marriage. Dr. Y.iu Anda and
other witnesses of the ceremony were
acquainted with the reason why it was
desired to keep the marriage secret for
awhile, and all united in a pleged of se
crecy. After receiving the congratula
tions of those present, Lieut. Tiffany and
bride returned to the Southern Hotel
reaching there about half past 9 o’clock.
The lieutenant returned to the arsenal
and pursued his routine of duty as usual
while his bride remained at the hotel.
One week after the marriage Lieut.
Tiffany was ordered to report for duty
at Fort Stockton, on the Mexican bor
der, immediately. He departed at once
and was accompanied as far as xAustin,
Texas, by his bride. From that point
she returned to St. Louis and proceeded
at once to her father’s residence in Geor
gia, where she now is.
Mrs. Tiffany is possessed of consider
able means independent of her father.
She has against tho Government for pro
perty taken and destroyed by Sherman’s
army during the war,amounting to thou
sands of dollars. She commands an
influence in Washington which is val
uable in the prosecution of such claims.
Lieut. Tiffany and his wife are both
members of the Methodist church. He
is still on duty at Fort Stockton, sepa
rated from his beautiful young bride by
hundreds of miles.— Ft. Louis Times.

TniercHiiiig Discoveries At I*om
leii.
In excavating at Pompeii, a box was
unearthed, containing,as nearly as could
be ascertained, about three hundred
thin tablets of pine wood of various di
mensions, some measuring one hundred
and eighteen millimetres by eighty-three
others one hundred and thirty-two by
one hundred and twenty,and a few dou
ble this size, all tied together in threes
and packed in regular order, or strata ;
and upon the edge of a number of these
tablets, as will probably be found upon
them all when they have been subjected
to a closer examination, was the word
“Perscripto,” written with atramentum ;
and followed by a name on the same in
the genitive, and on others in the dative
case. With great delicacy one of the
packets from the upper stratum was lift
ed off and carefully opened, when, to
the delight of all around, the writing
was seen distinctly legible the stylus, in
penetrating the thin layer of wax, which
had entirely disappeard, having left the
form of the characters on the soft wood
beneath and the following words were
read: “ Q Yolusio Saturnino, P. Corne
lio. Cos. VIII. K. Jul. M. Alleins Car
pus scripti me accepisse. ab. L. Caeeiiio.
Jucundo HS MCCCXXCVI ab aucti
one me substipulatu ejus Actum Pomp”
which, says a Rome correspondent of
the London Times,l may render: “Writ
ten by Marcus Alleins Carpus on the
Bth of the Kalends of July, Quintus
Volusins, Saturninus and Publius Cor
elius being Consuls (A. D. 56). I have
received from Lucius Caeciliu3 Jueun
bus 1,386 sesterces.the amount increased
by me upon the .contract stipulated by
him. Done at Pompeii.” Twelve men
carried the load along fourteen miles
between Pompeii and Naples, and de
posited it safely in one of the rooms con
nected with the collection of papyri iu
the Musoo Nazionale, where the exmlna
tion of tlies tablets is now going forward.
One by one they arc carefully placed in
trays made of cardboard, by which the
danger likely to arise from the shrink
ing or expansion the changes of tem
perature may cause in such materials as
wood or glass will he avoided. Careful
fire-similes of the writings on each are
being made, and as each one is com pie*
ted it will he examind and compared
with the original by the most competent
persons,in order to insure the most scru
pulous exactness. The greatest, antic'’
ipations are entertained as to the inform*
ation this mass of documents, all rela
ting to one person or one family, may
afford regarding the inhabitants of Pom*
peii. No such discovery has been made
since the celebrated papyri were found
at Herculaneum® in 1752 ; but while
those, after the expenditure of infinite
almost miraculous—patience and skill
in deciphering them, weie found to
contain nothing but the fragmentary re
mains of philosophical treatises, these,
immediately legible, offer every prospect
of affording invaluable cotributions to
our knowledge of every-day life at the
commencement of the Christian era.
Unarmed Troops Attacked by
Indians. —A detachment of one hun
dred and thirty recruits recently for
warded from Newport Barracks, Ken
tucky, to the Seventh Infantry at Fort
Shaw, Montana, was attacked by Indians
near Carroll, Mon., about the 7th ult.
Several of the men wero killed and
wounded, and forty mules were driven
off. Only twelve of the troops were arm
ed, as they had not yet been assigned to
their companies. The Indians are sup
posed to belong to the Sans Arcs tribe
of the Dakotas.
The sending of such a large force,
almost destitute of the means of defense,
a distance of nearly three hundecd miles
through the very centre of the hostile
Indian country, is considered the most
rash and extraordinary proceeding ever
heard of in these parts. At the present
time there is not a tribe of the Sioux
nation that has not some of its represen
tatives on the war path.

Rowell’s new Newspaper Directory
shows the failure of over one thousand
newspapers in this country during the
past year, the loss to the publishers, ad
vertisers and subscribers amounting to
over $8,000,000, the Republic of New
York alone losing half a million.
It is tho testimony of others also that
the past year has oeen the hardest that
our newspapers have ever known.
Among other causes,a prominent one has
been this : as payments have not been
easily made, people reason that a news
paper subscription ib hut a small amount,
and the publishers cannot ho greeily in
convenienced for the want of such a
mere trifle. They forget that there are
thousands of subscribers who reason in
the same way. Consequently while the
neglect of two or three to remit would
be no great damage to the publisher,
yet the failure of thousands to Cos so is
simply disastrous to him. For his week
ly payments are large and must bo met.
Ilis source of supplies being these rivu
lets, when they dry up be must close
his office. He cannot even afford to
wait for better times. In what condi
tion would a farmer be, whom say three
thousand persons were owing for as
many barrels of potatoes ? And what
would be his thoughts of the honesty
of his debtors, each one of whom neg
lects to remit his small amount, and L.y
such neglect causing the farmer—with
money enough due him to meet all his
liabilities—to fail ? —Chan : J ><r ial.
A Glooiuy Crap Outlook.
Memphis, August 10.—The Ava
lanche this mormug has a lengthy re
view of the situation along the river in
the Memphis district. The summing
up of cotton already in water is about
two thousand acres. While the writer
regards the situation as more hopeful
than a few days since, he urges constant
and sleepless vigilance on the part of
those whose lands arc threatened- He
says’the danger to fine plantations in
Walnut Bend, sixty miles below here,
is from back water in St. Francis,which
last week extended up to Wittsburg, a
distance of eighty miles.
A'l telegram from Vicksburg this
morning from Captain Blake, of the
Anchor Line, says everything is all
right from Chicot to this point on the
Louisiana side, and from Robertsville
on the Mississippi side. Forces are at
work wherever danger is apprehended,
which contradicts the reported crevass
at Ashton Miss..published in the Vicks
burg Herald. A well knowD planter of
North Mississippi, writing from Atlan
ta, Ga , the 6th, to a firm hero, says of
the crops for sixty miles east of Mem
phis : “Crops have suffered very much
for want of r&in from here to Decatur.
They are pretty good going south from
Birmingham to Montgomery, a distance
of one hundred miles, thence east sixty
five miles through the cotton country.
I have never in my life seen such an
entiie failure of crops. I saw hundreds,
yea, thousands of acres which will not
make five bushels of corn per acre, and
not over fifty pounds of seed cotton.
From Opelika to Columbus,Ga., it real
ly looks like starvation. It is so dry
and hot that even the trees are dying
and shedding their leaves like autumn
All the rain in the world could not
change the result now. From West
Point here, crops are very sorry. Corn
will make about seven bushels per acre,
and cotton about three huudred pounds
per acre.
Of Course —A middle aged woman,
says the Free Press, fell as she was de
scending a pair of stairs on Jefierson
avenue yesterdaj, and the first man to
help her reach her feet was a banker
who happened to be passing.
“Did you fall madam ?” he inquired
as he seized her arm.
“Fall ? of course I fell, you fool, you !
You don’t suppose I’d sit down here to
rc.;t, do you ?” she snapped.
He didn’t say.
