A BELLIGERENT ToUcH-We find the
following precious bit Of scandal III
Baltimore letter to the Herald. dated
November /:
Quite novel suit will come off before
our next county court. i'll which the lady
of distinguished member OF Congress,
from the Native American district OF
Pennsylvania, is the defendant. The
member in question has been residing
since his election, with his tather-il-laW
at his country seat, few miles from the
city, and the daughter of his wife by a
previous marriage, being most beautiful
young lady, has attracted the admiration
of the young sparks of that vicinity, one
of whom it is said, has met with Srea.
favor i'll the eyes of the young lady, but
with the most violent opposition from
her mother. A few days since, the young
man alluded to, was riding to town In
his buggy, when he discovered ahead OF
him the carriage i'll which his lady-love
usually rode, and driving up at a brisk
pace, he looked in as he passed. but could
not discover who was inside. After pass
ing some distance ahead. he again slack
ened his pace until the carriage came
up, and taking second look, discovered
that it was the mother Instead of the
daughter, when he gave the whip to his
horse, and moved of in hurry. The
mother Immediately ordered her servant
man, who was riding OH horseback, 10
overlake the buggy, and hold 1t until she
came uo. The man succeeded, and held
the reins until the lady arrived, when
she ordered the coachnan TO drag the
oifender from his seat. and taking the
coachman whip, she gave him severe
hogglng. After escaping from their
clutches, the young man followed them
to the city, and had all three arrested for
an assault and battery. Thus the matter
stands at present, but it is thought that
all elopement will put an end to the SUIT

to pay up.

would call again--and left for nome.
Now, fifty dollars to Mr.. II -. was
no trifling sum, for he was only clerk
on small salary, but he scratched
round,' raised the money, and paid IT
over. That was the last contribution he

adherence. He considers himself a
