THE 0I.DEN HOME.
BY SOPHIA r. GRIsW Id.

BY SOPHIA T. GRIswOLD.
/ dream again in the olden home,
Where the echoes never die;
OF the gentle tone, and the light laugh thrown
On the breeze of the years gone by
They come not now with the joyons brow
And the glad returning tread [dwells,
But the white stone tells where the loved one
In the halls OF the shcctcd dead
There are joyous sounds in the olden home,
Aud the laugh of childish glce,
While haunting thoughts to the full heart come
Till il hcaves like the moaning sea-
Till it turns away to the churchyard clay,
Where the solemn pines ure signing; [graves,
Where the long grass waves DER the place of
is the broken household lying.
They have passed away from tho olden home,
Like a dream of light and love;
That fair young band of the clasping hand,
Are one in a home above
And the song may thrill till the heart is chill
With wild and nameless yearnng;
To the carly bloom of the olden home
To the past-to dust returning.

MuRDER CASE WITH A PLEASANT TERMINA-
TIoS.- The people of Detroit have been much cx-
cited about murder said to have been commit
ted near Brownstown 1t was alleged that a
peddlcr was murdered at house where he re
maincd over night, and three women were arres-
ted. The examination took place at Detroit, aud
it was n testimony that boues were found in a
barrel aud blood with human hair in it, was
seen in various places about th0 house. The
case had been fully Investigated, and the coun-
sci were about summing up the testimony, when
a Dutchman rose in the audience, and protested
against the sheep bones and horse hair which had
been produced as evidence of a murder being Ia
ken to represent his own body. as he was tue
identical peddler who was supposed to have been
murdered. 1t was fortunate for the three wo-
men that the man was forthcoming at the right
time.

A RIDE ~ A STEAM WAGON.-ln company with
several gentlemen, we yesterday visited the
steam wagon. now on exhibition in the room of
the Young Mems Democratic Club, over the post
Office exchange. Mr.. j. W. Ovcrton, the inven
tor, explained the theory aud put the machinery
in operation, to show us how il worked. small
engine, about the size Of large coffee pot and of
800 pounds power, in an upright position is fixed
on four small wheels which wheels are turned by
means of six feet, fastened to the middle of the
wagon and striking the ground like the hind feet
Of horse ,propel the carriage forward on the same
principle. These feet are raised and put down
again by means of crank turned by the engine,
and the whole invention consists in the use OF the
feet or legs az propelers. Attached to the small
wagon, was an ordinary hand cart, in which
passenger would be seated and ridden around the
ROOM the engine putting aud Wheeling as when
attached to steam car. We learned that the
inventor has sled eareat and sent on to WASH
ington to obtain patent, accompanying MS re-
quest with model, that has several improve
lnents over the one of which we are now speakihg'
which was made in common blacksmith snop
in Mariposa county. We would advise all our
readers to go and see the steam wagon, wn,ch
promises to create such wonderful revolution

A RUNAWAY MARRIAGE N IIIGu LIFE--THE
BRIDE WORM $3.50 000--A marriage took place
in Grace church on Monday last, that has excited
no little interest in fashionable circles, aud caus-
ed quite II Auttcrng among certain wealthy iami-
lies 1t seems the bride is an heiress, and worth
In her own right $250000 She was the inmate
Of one Of our most exclusive female seminartes,
and is but fourteen years aud eight months old.
Her wealth and the high position OF her family
were OF course known to her associates, ana her
acuuaiuttuOe was consequently cOurtcd Among
tht gentlemen she was introduced to was s.
K, a well known habitue of fifth avenue sa-
looms but who had reached the mature age OF
thirty two years. The acquaintance ripcned in-
to intimacy, and eventually the parties became
engaged to be married but as the parents might
ntcrpose an objection, 1t was arranged that u
should take place unknown to them or any OF
the young lady $ friends. 1t was agreed that the
happy event should come oil last Saturday. (St.
Valentines day) and the church was opened,
the minister Ieady, and few spectators had also
assembled to witness the marriage ceremony
which was announced for ii A. NJ Bat noon
came and went, and no bride appeared, ana tue
church was closed.
1t seems the principal Of the seminary in which
the young lady was pupil got wind that some
thing unusual was on the tdpS, ana she locked
tho would be bride in her room, aud so preven-
ted the iulllment Of her engagement But love
laughs at locksmiths, and by some means Mr..
K-was notified Of the situation OF affairs, and
arranged matters in such manner that the young
lady escaped from surveillance, and the couple
were duly married in one Of our most fashionable
up town churches on the 18th inst The bride
and bridegroom Immediately started for Wash
ingtOn, aud intend to spend the honeymoon on a
Southern tour. This pleasant little allalr mas
created quite an excitement among the young
ladies in upper tendom and is to them far more
interesting than the Bond street trasedy.-Neo
