Elopement Exfraordinaire.

One of our hotels was the scene of rather an
interesting, yet exciting affair on the evening of
Tuesday last. A married gentleman of wealth
and standing returned to his hotel in the even
ing, and, entering his apartment discovered his
partner" the beloved wife of his bosom"-in
the act of packing into small compass as
possible (not cigar box) all her personal effects.
Perceiving that 9 something was out, the hus-
band very gently inquired OF his wife what she
was about-what was up.
''Oh, why my duck, I'm going te Sydney"
What-eh my God, what does all this
mean ~
1t means, my dear, Just what l say-I'm off
for Sydney Australia in the morning"
"Why, in the name of the ID, who are you
going with ~
"Oh, with nice young man of my ac-
quaintance.''
There we must draw the curtain. What fol-
lowed between the couple was not detailed 10
the g boarders. Suffice it, the lady was miss
ing from the hotel that night. and was last seen
aboard the =. Monumental City" hanging upon
the arm of a curly headed. mustachioed young
man, who has been frequently seen waiting
upon the table," in hotel which stands '' some
where" in our city. AS consolation to the
husband. the wife left their only child, an inter-
esting little girl of three years of age, in his
charge. The affair seems to have been conduct
ed with much GOODNESS on all sides. The last
remark said to have been made by the husband
in relation to the elopement, was let her rip"
