Story "FISIsnED.'-Mr. Willis, under the
title of each Mans oldest Happening" last
week published curious story, related by Lieut..
Maury in conversation the latter was holding
during a recent railroad excursion. Each man,
1t appeared, told his ''oddest happening" and
Lieut.. Maury, feeling more than usually commu-
NEGATIVE, contributed the romantic story Of his
marriage for two months to young and fashion
able daughter Of South Sea Island Chief, with
whom, owing to the sailing of his ship, he en-
joyed but a few months Of connubal felicity
This strange and interesting narrative, which
was set of with all the graces of Willis Home
Journal style had hardly begun to go the rounds
of the press, when the following telegraph dis
patch is sent from Washington city, Lieutenant
Maury's residence:
WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-Commander Maury is
still engaged as one Of the Consulting Committee
Of the Atlantic Telegraph Company in examining
the specimens Of cables best suited for the ocean
telegraph. The story that he, when midshi D.
man, was married to an Owhyhee Princess, is
contradicted on authority.
