The Paris correspondent Of the Labora>

writing about the chemical products of the
Paris Universal Exhibition, communicates
the following sad misapplicstion Of science.
We wish that the vile frauds here described
were confined to her Majesty's subjects:
"On examining the cases Of several
firms, whose names We withhold for fear of
mourning the penalty for several actions for
libel, We find exhibited such compounds %
the artificial esssne Of sherry, port, GIN,
rum, cosnac, arsaeh. madeira, moselle, etc.
Now, these essences con only be used for
the purposes Of swindling the public, by
enabling fraudulent 'publicans aud grccers
to manufacture those pesnicious compounds
with which the poorer Glasses Of her Majes>

on examination, We shall find Mr.. Casely,
the burglar, exhibiting his safe breaking

band in search Of His spouse.
Prom the Memphis Tenn. Bulletin, 18th.
Yesterday morning an incident occurred
At the 0ycrtcn Hotel, in this city, which
created considerable amusement among the
guests and boarders Of the establishment.
The captain ofths bell boys, as he is call>
ed, Joe Saunders, by name. eloped with the
ladies' parlor maid, a very pretty CIR, named
Thercsa Kelly, wife Of Patrick Kelly, one Of
the walters of the hotel. The principal
business which Saunders has had to attend
TO for some time past VAS to take the tick
cts at the dining room door.
lie WAS at all times polite and courteous
10 the guests OF the hotel, and was . gen
eral f~avorits, IL was observed for the past
few weeks that he was on very intimate
terms with Theresa, and that they had long
and very affectionate chats II the top Of the
stairs leading TO the dining room. No one,
however, suspected anything wrong, M
An elopement was the last thing dreamed
OF. Joe had been very careful Of his savings.
aud il was known that he had over twelve
hundred dollars in bank. Theresa also had
. little money, the savings from her own
earnings and that Of her husband Tor the
past year. She Was prepossessing in ap>
pearance. petite in figure. plump
a. a partridge, and always very
neatly creased. All these qualities
seem to have taken possession OF Joes
heart, the fair Theresa doubtless telling
him that she loved him better than any one
on earth. husband and oil included,
Joe, who Wal Of the susceptible order Of
human beings, took al for granted, and the
elopement was planed aud successfully car
ried out yesterday morning. Saunders
drew his twelve hundred dollars out Of the
bank on Tuesday, the trunks Of both par
ties were got secretly out q the hotel the
same night, and yesterday morning Joe
and Theresa were missing. The news
speedily spread through tho establishment
that an elopemert had taken place, and Gre
ated quite . flutter among the employees,
male and females. When Kelly was made
aware Of what had occurred, be proceeded
20 make inquiries and learned that the fu-
gitives had started in the direction Of the
Mississippi and Tennessee Railroad, sbut
when he reached the depot he :found the
train bad left.
lie telegraphed TO several points to have
tho clipping pair arrested and brought back
but it is doubtful If this can be done. After
Kelley got over his first excitement he
seemed TO take the matter philosophically
and Il is said that il he conld get back his
hard earned savinz Is for . year past which
Theresa carried off she might go to Hong
Kong or any other place for aught he cared
after making such an escapads as that Of
