say in French-a strange article to be found
in the possession Of female who, it was
reasonable to suppose, had long since cast
aside the vanities Of this world, and was no
longer "on her shape" Now this same
"bustle." while patiently waiting with the
other traps TO be sold, excited deal oi cur

most do congregate about auction stores
and yesterday afternoon, one Of these, more
inquisitive than the others, who was en-
deavoring to satisfy himself as to what the
internal arrangements Of the machine were
like. effected a breach in the outside cover
ing, when two SIS greenbacks and marriage
certificate were brought to light. The in
yestigation 10 to DC continued, as it is sup
