AyELopEME OF One OF THE PAR
TIES ON CHARGE OF ADCLTERY.-About three
Weeks ago well-known business man ol
Philadelphia, named Stantz, on repairing 10
his house one evening for supper, found tnat
his wife and two children were missing. Inc
servants being questioned, stared poslll'ely
that they knew nothing OF the whereabouts OF
their mistress, and Mr.. StantZ, after dln-
gent search, retired TO rest, unable TO hear any
tidngs of his faithless wife On going TO ms
place of business on the next morning, he dis
covered that one of his most trusted worKmen,
a cabinet maker named Burghardt, hao also
disappeared very mysteriously. The thought
AT once struck Mr.. StantZ that his Wife, who
was very well acquainted with Mr. Burg
hardt, had eloped with him. He at iirst maze
q diligent search of the whole city, but being
unable to find the pair, placed the mater In
the hands of the detectives. After consider
able trouble, they succeeded in tracing the PAIR
to this city, and placed Mr. Stantz In possession
of the information The lateral once decided
on coming TO Cincinnati, and arrived here on
Thursday last. BY the aid of the police OF
this city, he was enabled TO find Burghardt,
who was al work in chair manufactory. he
at once had him arrested and locked up In the
Hammond Street Station House on charge
of adultery, Burghardt having left wife ana
family in Philadelphia. StantZ having ascer-
tanned where his wife and children could De
found, determined upon seeing them. Inc
interview was anything but of al agreeable
character 10 him. His wife plainly told him
that neither she nor the children loved, nor
had any kindly feelings toward him, that she
never would live with him again, and hatly
refused to return with him TO Philadelphla,
although he promised her entire forgiveness
Seeing that his wife was so determined In
the stand which she had taken, he concluded
that he had better leave her and return home,
which he did on Friday evening last. Burg
hardt was arraigned in the Police Court on
Saturday on the charge of adultery, but no
one appearing against him, he was discharged,
and is now living with the wife of Stantz.

CASE UNDER THE CIVIL RIGHTs.-1t is a
little remarkable that the first case that
has arisen under the Civil Rights Bill
$50 called has originated in the free
State of Indiana. At Lafayatte, in that
State, on Tuesday, the 8th inst, colored
man named Barnes, brought suit before q
justice, against q white man, to compel
him to enforce contract. The defendant.
for answer, set up that the plaintiff came
into the State in violation of the thirteenth
section of the Constitution, which forbids
the immigration of negroes. The plaintiff,
demurred to the answer, maintaining that
the article was void, because it was in con-
fi,t with the letter and spirit OF the United
States Constitution, with the constitutional
amendment, and was void under the first
section of the Civil Rights Bill, which
gives to all persons born in the United
States full right to make and enforce con-
tracts, any law, statute, ordinance, regula-
ten or custom to the contrary notwith-
standing. The Court sustained the de-
murrer, and the defendant appealed to the
Circuit Court, which is now in session.

been prosecuted in the Criminal Court at
Memphis under a law Of the State confn-

pleaded in bar, and the Court sustained

AN UNPLEAsANT sURPRIsE.-A pianist
of some renown was waited upon, in Paris,
n few weeks ago, by young man of dis
tingushed mien. At that moment the
King Of Portugal was in Paris, and was
known to be paying visits eccentrlcally.
AS the young man would not announce
his name, the pianist concluded it was the
king, and seated himself at the piano to
astonish his majesty on his entrance.
Don't disturb yourself for me, monsieur"
said the aristoeratic looking young man;
Il will gladly listen" The pianist too
delighted, PLAYED through his repertot,e,
and ceased only from exhaustion The
young man then rose and said, "Permlt
me now, monsieur, to present you,'-here

but was dismayed when be continued

PETROLEUM IN ITALY.-Recent accounts
from Leg horn relate that there is a general
rise in the price Of foreign articles impor-
ted there, and especially in petroleum, Of
which the consumption is said to be SO
large in italy that the supply is not
equal to the demand. The price has SO
much increased lately that companies
have been formed at Turin and Genoa for
working and purifying the produce of the
petroleum springs which exist in Parma
and Calabria.
