 MT. Quaver Hooks Mrs. Russeil's Drss--
 They Elope.
 The Albany Police Tribuneis responsible for the following: "Mr. Russell is retired mer- chant, and till last summer lived the life of batchelor at Boston. During the month of last July, Mr. R. thought he would take jaunt to Lowell to look into the mysterious movements of blue-eyed girls and spiunining- iennies. He stopped at Lowell a week, during which time he fell in love with lot of auburn ringlets from New Hampshire. The auburn ringets blushed, sighed and dropped her head "like lilly o'erpressed with the rain.' When the auburn rnglets came to, they accepted MT. Russel's proposal, and during the next day were made Mir. Russell's wfe-Mr. Russell was the happiest of men. For a week he dreamt he was swimming in sea ofrose leaves, fenced in with cupids. Three days after his marriage, Mir. Russell and lady left for Sarato- ga and Niagara. At the former place they spent fortnight; at the latter three weeks.- During the latter part of October, Mr. Russell thought he would come to Albany to spend the winter He put up at one of our frst-c hotels, and resolved to enjoy himself. There was only one drawback to MT. Russell's beau- titude. Mrs. Russell was not as polished as he cOuIu nave UcSIeU ucT. LII consequence Ol this, Mir. R. engaged Mir. Smirk to teach her the languages, M. Crome to teach her drawing and painting, and Mr. Quaver to give her mu- sic lessons. Every body knows Quaver. He is "ladies' man, and nothing else. On Mon Troy. He missed the cars and came back an hour earlier than he expected. He immediate ly went to his room. It was locked. He l-nOcy a6 hut m Mr. Ruc sell then applied his eye to the key-hole, and became excited. Mr. Quaver was hooking Mrs. Russel's dress. Mir. Russell knocked again; still no answer. Mr. Russell then ap- piled his boot. MT. Quaver wishes to know "who was there" Mir. Russell told him he'd find that out when he got him by the neck.- MT. Quaver was thunderstruck-"Ma Mat voice Is Russells." Mir. Russell again urges M. Qua yer to open the door, Quaver promises to do so, provided Russell "does not make scene" Russell says that he will not only moke a scene but whole tragedy-the last act followed up with dead musician. Quaver, fearing that things were becoming worse," at last consent ed to open the door. Russell rushes in and sezes goldheaded cane. Mrs. R. says, "spare him for my case" Mir. R. replies, "never." Mrs. R. swoons; Mir. R. says "my love-" and undertakes to catch her as she falls heavily on the floor. Mr. R. hits himself upon the fore head, and says, "its monstrous." During this little scene, Quaver puts on his hat and gloves, ond rushes down stairs. This was Monday af- ternoon. On Tuesday morning Mir. Russell appeared at the police office to swear out warrant against Quaver for killing his peace of mind.' Justice Parsons heard his com. plaint but as there is no law against " hooking a lady's dress" he could not issue the docu- ment prayed for by the compliment Mr. Russell left the office for the purpose of show ing Mr. c. "what's what" How it will result, is more than we can say. Probably, in coffee and pistols. 1Ir R. is evidently good hearted man, but the best thing he can do is to leave town as early as possible. We advise him to take Mrs. R. along Better have her with the accomplishments he found about her in Lowell than to purchase others at the price which Mir. Quaver puts upon his. P. $. While Mir. Rus sell was at the police office, Mrs. Russell left the hotell, and has not since been heard off, l The porter says she was accompanied to the cars by a gentleman who looked like Mir. Qua yer, although he had his head so mutfied up he "could not say for certain" Quaver, we fear, is getting in bad way. He Is pursuing a course of conduct that is very apt to end with a sensation-a dead pianist, with twelve gen. tlemen "setting on body"
