A FEW days ago report went the
rounds that the wife of the magician An
derson had eloped with John Norris, the
showman's agent, and taken along about
$500 Of the Professors funds. IL was
added that the abandoned magician had
killed his child and committed suicide
This part of the story, the Meadyille Pa
Republican says, was a neat piece fslight-
of hand out Of Anderson's usual line, but
quite as successful as any he practices in
his sale diaboligue. Its object was to entrap
the fugitives, which it did. They, reading
the report Of the murder and suicide, ;ook
the back track, and, at Middletown, Ohio,
we're met by the injured husband. The
runaways, the report says, were compelled
TO restore the plunder, and then the foolish
woman-abandoned by her paramour, who,
having los, the funds, seemed to have no
further desire for her company, and repu-
dated by her husbsnd-was allowed TO
depart alone for her former home.

McKinzie Sheriff, John Rushing Coun-
ty Court Clerk, w. r. Pierce Revenue

All the officers elected are Radicals, and
the election was peaceably and quietly
conducted every where in the county, and
TO the entire satisfaction of the successful
candidates and their friends; but some of
the unsuccessful Radical candidates are
complaining, and say II was not fair, and
there is probability that there will be one
or more contested cases, but it will be all
amongst themselves, aud nobody will be
hurt. The voting population of this coun-
~ is almost entirely Radical. Brownlow

any man a certificate unless he knows who
that man will support, and Conservative

we have, cannot be found in Tennessee. SO
