City Hall BesIegea--''starvatiOn Isoln-
tion, and Armed Demonstration" and
their Consequences.
The City Hall virtually in state of
siege since yesterday forenoon, is now in
possession of Mr.. Garneau and the gentle
men who have elected him Mayor Yes
terday, while Mr.. Tourangeau, who has
the opinion of counsel to the effect that he
remains legally the Mayor of Quebec, was
in the City Hall, and a meeting of the
Police Board was convened. The law
says the Mayor of the city shall be the
Chairman of that Board, and Mr.. Garneau
presided as such at q meeting, where, by
his vote and that of the judge of the ses-
sions, the recorder disse lting, the police
were directed to obey the legal orders OF
instructions, the police, hitherto inside
the City Hall, came outside of it, and
guarded all means of access and ap-
proach.
Mr.. Tourangeau was in the City Hall
while this change in the command of the
police took place, and he suddenly found
himself transferred from the position of a
commander to that of a prisoner. The
police, previously inside the building.
now encompassed il, and prevented
and isolated all who were in from
communication with the outer world
The orders were, Let any one out, but
no one in"
Mr.. Tourangeau and those with him
continued In the City Hall until this after
noon, when, convinced that their assall-
ants strength was irresistible, they quilted
the premises.

knew the man under me had died without

fellow who lay by nay right side say, "Oh.
Jesus, you saved the thief upon tie cross:

throat, SO that he had ceased TO breathe.
L heard another cry, ooh death, where Is

L knew that two poor fellows on my left
had fallen with their faces together, and

could not move, calmly replied, "Then I

The story given out and generally be

by the giving way OF the gallery, is a mis-
take. When the main girder under the
floor broke, the floor sank, and as the gal
lery rested on the floor it followed but
the gallery was connected with the ceiling
which seemed to have been suspended
four or five feet below the roof by stair
way and some lesser timber-these drew
down the ceiling. So that the force of the
floor caused the fall of the gallery, and

Bride of Sixteen EIOpes with "a Young
Man

Man of Twenty one
The Washington Star says that a young
man, named Louis c.. Benner. we'll known
on Capitol HILL has been for some months
visiting Miss Berkley, who has been
living with her uncle, John 81. Peake, CD
Eighth street east, near Virginia avenue
and was quite constant in his attentions,
which. as far as could be judged by the
neighbors, were appreciated by the lady.
But as the course OF true love never runs
smooth, it happened that there was another
Richmond in the field, named Lewis, who
about two months ago married Miss Berk-
ley, aud took her on q bridal trip to Phila.
delphia. Young Benner Was then the sub
lect of considerable teasing on the part Of
his friends, as it was known that the even
ing before the wedding he spent with the
lady, and SO pleasantly TO lead to the
belief that he was unconscious of what the
morn would bring forth. The teasing he
seemed to take good -naturedly, however,
and. strange to say, has since the marriage
continued his visits to the house, though
at longer intervals than before. For the
past two weeks Mrs. Lewis has supplied
the place of his visits by strolliug up often
(generally about twilighti TO Benner's resi-
dence, and in the event If not meeting
him on the streets, would boldly pull the
bell and enquire his whereabouts. Now
for the den0uenaent, as far as can be ascar-
tained at present.
On last Thursday evening Mrs. Lewis
remarked to her relatives that she was
going ever on Third street east to visit her
married sister, and requested them to tell
her husband when he came in, to call
Ghere for her. That same evening, about
o'clock, young Benner was standing on
the COZ ner of Second street east and Penn
sylvanla avenue, conversing with some
friends, when Mrs. Lewis came up, and
both moved off little and engaged in
conversation. She was heard to say some
thing relating to trouble she had had
and was inquiring, "Well, will you have
me nOW?" or words to that effect. The
conversation lasted few moments when
both started up towards the capi ol, and
are supposed to have gone off on the 9 o.
10. train northward, as they have not been
seen nor heard of since. The father of
the lady, as we'll as her aunt and uncle,
with whom she was living, are very much
worried about the matter, and, it is said,
have brought the telegraph and detective
skill into play to discover the whereabouts
of the fugltives, but thus far without sue
cess. Mrs. Lewis is hardly over sixteen
years of age and rather pretty, while Mr..
Benner, who is employed as a plate printer
in the treasury, is just twenty-one and
quite favOrite among his acquain tances.
Both were highly esteemed among their
respective circle of friends, by some of
whom it is believed that the parties in
question were engaged to be married, and
a day fixed, February 18th last, and that
before the match could be consummated
Mr.. Lewis stepped in and carried off the
prize.

The Wrong HInn POuItIced.

The following story, which we do not
remember to have seen in print, may be
old, but it is received as true:
At famous and fashionable watering
place gentleman one night was suddenly
seized IN bed with an excruciating pain in
the stomach, which neither brandy, No. 6,
nor any other remedy could remove. His
wife, after trying number of things in
vain, and having exhausted all her stock Of
remedies, left her husbands bed side for
tho purpose of getting O warm applica-
ton. Guided on her return by O. light
which she supposed was the one Just left,
she softly entered, and was not little
surprised to find her patient apparently in
deep slumber. However, thinking he
might still be suffering, she gently raised
the bed-clothes, &C., and laid the scalding
poultice upon a stomach-but not the
stomach Of her husband, which no sooner
touched the body of the person than he,
greatly alarmed, and writhing under the
| torture Of the burning application, shout-
ed: Halo hall what in the name of
heaven and earth are you about there p
Then, with one spring from his bed, he
made for the door, and rushing down
stairs, in frenzy of excitement, that some
one had poured shovel of hot Goals upon
; him. The woman, overcome with excite
ment and alarm, gave a frantic scream
| which brought her husband hurriedly in
from the next room to her rescue. The
husband was 50 much excited, and also SO
much amused with the singular mistake,
and the ridiculous position Of his better
| half, that he forgot all bis pains; but early
next morning he, his wi, e and trunks left
for parts unknown. The porlticed gen
tienan still retains the bandkerchief-a
beautiful linen fabric, with the iadys name
on IT, which he considers Of rare value.
