A SUDDEN MARRIAGE, AND SPEEDY Dr.
yoRcE.-Y esterday the complaint of Eliza
II. Reed, against her husband William L.
Reed, who was arrested a day or two since,
came up for examination before Justice Cole.
From the testimony of the complainant it ap-
peared that she is young bride, having been
married as lately as Thursday last. The bar
gain of marriage was made quickly, and
after brief acquaintance. The first day
alter the marriage was spent at the American
Hotel. On the next morning the bridegroom
announced to his new wife that business en-
gagements of pressing nature required his
immediate attention, and that she must make
hereself as happy as she could over their
sudden separation. His long absence made
her feel disquieted, and she sought him out
She found him somewhere, on Saturday. He
sent her to house on "Burt's Farm, where
he said they would domicil like pair of
loving doves. When she reached the house
she found it without any furniture She
sought him again. He made some sort of
apology for the position of things. He
sought to comfort her with the assurance
that he would have plenty of money as soon
as he could see 'the Major" But who that
Major is, she could not then, and has not
since been able to find out So matters re-
mained for another day. "Hope deferred
began to make her heart sick. TO com
plete her grief she heard that her spouse
meditated running away and leaving her
behind. She then caused him to be arrest
ed. AT the trial the accused took matters as
coolly as a stole. He would give no expla-
nation of his past conduct or make any
promises for the future. He seemed to re-
gard his bargain as one that he could break
at his pleasure. The Justice soon disposed
of the case of Mr.. Reed, by sending him to
the Penitentiary, there to remain till he shall
give bail for the support of his wife It is
suspected that the discipline and restraints
OF that institution will soon effect change
in the frame of his mind.-AI6dny EOeniHg
