MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE OF AN
AMERICAN LADY IN PARIs.-A story ap-
peared in the papers few DAYS ago of a
young American married lady having mys-
teriously disappeared from her residence in
the Champ Elysees, leaving some children
of tender years and her servants without any
knowledge Of her whereabouts,
The husband, who had the greatest conf
dence IN his wife-a confidence according to
all accounts, entirely justified by her char
acter-came over from America the moment
he heard the sad news, and has, with the
aid of the French police, made fruitless re-
searches. He asoertained that CHE was in
the habit ofeoing frequently to convent,
situated in a beautiful park at Auteuil, with
the otensibe object of letting the children
play about the grounds.
One day last Autum, after returning from
drive TO the convent, she put on her bon,
net and shawl and left the house, telling the
servants, In tone OF voice betraying an
noyahce, that she was Obliged to pay visi
on business The newspaper not having
given her name, and referred to her as Mad

her. The object Of the communicate is I,

GEORGETOWN ELECTION. = An election
took place in Georgetown, on Monday last,
for Mayor and Common Council, il being
the first election in the District of Columbia
in which the colOred vote is counted
detail of one hundred and forty-five men for
duty was made, including the police of the
town and the mounted force, in order to
preserve the peace. At mne O'Clock the
polls of voters, without distinction of color,
commenced. The votes of several colored
men were rejected because they could not
be identified, and few on the ground of
minority. This action of the judge of cleo
ton delayed the cOlored voters somewhat,
requiring them to make an oath TO their
identity and age Great exertions were
made by each party TO bring voters to the
polls During the entire day there were less
of drunkenness and disorderly conduct than
usual upon the streets, though from an early
hour the streets and corners in the vicinity
of the polls were occupied by groups Of citi'
zens without distinction of color, who were
evidently deeply interested in the result OF
the election. The restaurants and tipping
houses were closed all day, and the Metro
politan police were continually patrolling
the town. Charles d. WEIGH, radical Is
elected by a majority of mnety-six votes
over Henry Addison, the Conservative
candidate, and majority of the Councilmer
on the radical ticket are also elected

REvoLTING SCENE AT AN EXECUTION
The st. Vincent Witness reports the recent
execution of women named Mary James,
for murder. When the chaplain who atten-
ded the wretched woman to the scaifold had
hidden her farewell he drew back. She
also quickly drew back, but the movement
could scarcely have been perceived for the
order was given, the drop fell, and the cul-
prit was seen standing unframed on the
platform. Her eyes, from the beginning,
were very imperlectly bsndaged, Looking
down, she drew back further from the trap,
and, her arms being free, she removed the
piece of muslin with which her eyes were
covered.
From this time she appeared TO dread the
trap, having seen the danger, and she could
not be induced to go forward, The provost
| marshal then summoned the turkeys, who,
with the hangman, were constrained to use
| force to get her on the trap door The in.
stinct of self preservation seemed TO nerve
her with strength, and a scuiile ensued on
the platform of the gallows for ten minutes
when she was ultimately tripped up, ant
fell heavily on one ofthe large side beams
the gallows, and rolled on the scafFold, where
she lay motionless. She was then pushed
over the trap door, which was pulled, ant
she fell through head foremost. She neye
made struggle or movement after she wal
thrown down, and many persons supposed
that life was extinct before she fell through
the trap.
