ANorHER ELoPEMENT.-The Baltimore Gazette
of Monday has the following concerning parties
from this city 5ar .e. -I...4 rs a..
Another elopement was brought to light
on Saturday last, leading to the arrest OF the fu-
gitives, who hail from Norfolk, Va On Friday
last Marshal Carmichael received despatch from
a man named VIM, living in Norfolk, requesting
him to arrest one Patrick Ney and woman ma
med Barbara VIM, the wife of complainant, who
would arrive on Saturday morning on the steamer
James T. Brady. Detective Smith was detailed
to arrest the two parties, and upon the arrival OF
the boat took them into custody. The telegram
having charged them with arson am robbery
they underwent search, and the stolen money
$500, was found in trunk belonging 10 'ne "o-
man.. % ia.- erI D ID ~
They were both held until yesterday morning.
when the husband, a somewhat oeiormeu ihoi,
yidual. from the Emerald Isle, arrived and stated
that his house had been set on fire by some one
and robbed, and having heard of the elopement
of his wife with Ney, he naturally supposed they
had committed the outrage. The testimony being
insu ffieient to hold Ney, the Marshall ordered his
discharge from custody. Winn having been ad-
mitted to an interview with his truant spouse
soon succeeded in bringing about reconciliation,
and being of forgiving nature, he pardoned and
took her to his arms again. The last seen OF the
couple, they were making enquiry for a hotel at
which to stop all night. f--s sl
