WYoMING.-Thee experiment of Woman
Suffrage in Wyoming is working very sat
isfactorily. At the last territorial election
the Democrats had 400 majority, and in
the election held the other day the Re-
publicans had 200 majority. In that
territory the women generally vote for
the best men. and these are found usual
ly on the republican ticket. This accounts
for the change in the politics of the terri
tory. The elections are now also, conduc-
ted decently, and are as fit for lady to
attend as any public assembly. The wo-
men Of Wyoming have also rcfuted the
assertion that they do not value the ballot
and will not use it,
ACCIDENT ON THE CENLEAG. RAILROAD.

road near Braintree Monday night, by
which twelve cars and the engine on train
No. 10, going south, were thrown from
the track The accident was caused by
cattle on the track The cars and engine
were all badly smashed, and the grain
with which the cars were loaded was
scattered over the ground The fireman
Silas Bell, was killed, and the engineer
and conductor injured. All the passenger
trains on Tuesday had to carry by, and
were considerably delayed in consequence.

Dugald Stewart, and Hon. James M.
Slade, of this place Mr.. Ferrin has dis
charged the duties of the office during
his brief incumbency with credit to him

Were it probable that any important

ing might be different, as there is no pro-
vision for filling vacancies in the Legisla-
ture, but in the absence of all such prob
ability it will be selection eminently fit
to be made. ..

RACE FOR A BRIDE.
TFrom the N. o. Times.l
BY THOMAS A. POPE.

[From the N o. Times az
Tt has been but a short time since
Esquire Shelton, the man who has mar
ried more people than any other per-
son in the United States, gave up the
pleasant business of marrying people
and watch trading, and retired from his
sphere of usefulness on this planet for
ever.
Notices of the man which Ihave seen
since his death recall to mind a bit of
history, in the contamination of which
he played an important part. But let
me tell the story from the first.
Among the Federal officers stationed
in Kentucky, in 1864, was Brigadier
General who, for the present, we will
call Ripley. This officers family con-
sisted of his wife and one child, a beau
tiful girl of seventeen summers-and as
many winters likewise, I presume
though from her joyous nature it did
not seem as though she had ever seen
anything but sunshine and flowers. l
have said Alice Ripley was beautiful
she was mOre-She was attractive
You could not know her without loving
her. The fortunes of war had made
me an inmate of General Ripley's man
sion, and thus had every opportunity
of meeting and admiring Alice, and,
might add, of loving her, though fortu-
natcly for myself never had the au,
daeity to declare my love. Albeit un-
der the same roof, our stations were
apart. Twas simply soldier and spe
cial detective; she the daughter of :
General, who was q proud, naughty
wealthy man.
Alice had many suitors, and, though
she treated all very kindly, she seemed
to give preference to none.
But at last her hero came, and, strang
to say, he came from the ranks of tlios
who were at war, if not with her, thOs
most nearly related to her. He cam
in this wise:
In, September, 1864, company G
cavalry, which / was guiding acros
the country, encountered a small bod
of Confederate soldiers, twelve in mum
Der, and captured the entire party
They proved to be a scouting part
commanded by Lieut.. Scott. Capital
Burns, who commanded our detach
ment of cavalry, concluded to take tn
Confederate soldiers on with him t
Camp Nicholas, and send Lieut.. Scot
back to General Ripley. ''Pope," sal
Burns to me, II have no men to spare
will you take the reb to General RiI
' ley? 1t is only forty miles to his heat
quarters, and you know the way"

charge of the prisoner. In few mir
, utes wasready to start. They brougl

Two MEALS DAY.-If any man or
woman of forty-fve OF over, not en-
gagged in hard manual labor, especially
the studious, sedentary and indoor liv-
era, would take but two meals day
for month, the second not being later
than three in the afternoon, and abso-
lutely nothing afterward, except it
might be in some cases an orange or
lemon, or cap of warm drink, such as
tea, bremo, sugar-water, or ice-cream,
there would be such change for the
better in the way of sound sleep, a feel
ing, on waking, of having rested, an
appetite for breakfast, buoyancy of
disposition during the day, together
with geniality Of temper and manner,
that few, except the animal and glut,
ton, would be willing to go back to the
flesh pots Of Egypt. ''Ben. Wade" as
he is frequently called, one of the po-
litical lions of the West, has taken but
two meals day for twenty years, and
if all scdcntary persons, those who are
indoors q greater part of their time,
would, after the age of forty-fye, OBJ
serve the same infexible rule, there can
be no doubt, other things being equal,
that long years of happy exemption
from the ordinary Ills would be the re-
suit. The reason is, that the stomach
would have time to rest for recupera-
its part more thoroughly, making pges
blood, giving better sleep, and secu-
ring an appetite for breakfast. Let
, any try it for ten days, taking the sec
+ ond meal seven honrs after the first, and

REND THE BANNER.
Aye, rend the faded fabric now,
That waved us oft to glory!
To foeman's might it mnst Low bow,
That flag which gallant deeds endow,
With fame that lives in story.
In every fold some memory lies,
That hugs our hearts forever,
or reeking plains and sulphurous skies,
Where shouts and groans and dying signs
In one chaotic mass arise,
To be forgotten never!
See here red shiloh's bullets slowed
The proud defiant banner;
When like wave the storm has heaved,
We rolled in fury and achieved
A triumph DER the tanner"
And just beyond, Il grape-shot tore
Its way ut Chick amauEa;
When proudly still it tloated DER
The field of death, and sea of gore,
And like sign from Heaven bore
To every eye TIL bIest augur.
Yon blood stain on the bar of white,
Was from our standard bearer;
A boy, unknowing fear or fright,
A mothers darling and delight;
Meier was there blossom tairer!
Alas ! at Petersburg he fell,
], In manhood's brightest blooming;
Fell at the post he filed so well,
His last cheer cut by a fatal shell.
Just when our last victorious yell
Rose Ger the lannon's booming.
And many another mark doth show
The swaying surge of battle;
Against whose crimson-crested flow
1t led us on to meet the foe
With deadly musket rattle;
For, from Potomac's ripping shore,
Far South to doomed Savannah;
From Vicksburg's hills, bedew'd with gore,
To Charleston's stern protracted roar,
Those faded bars we bravely bore,
A still -upconqucred banner.
Then rend the flag whose folds may flare
No more in eXultation;
Nor let a foemans gl;,nces dare,
To rest upon the co1ors there,
With conqueror's citation
No let it's glorious memories sleep,
BY insult still unbroken,
Till other days shall brightly sweep
Away the clouds that roll so deep
Above the canse for which we weep
Then may its fame be spoken

In their campaign address the Scott Ring
say that in 1866 q currency was authorized
called the 'Bills Receivable OF the State, " to
the amount of half million, "of achich about
''S30O,O0O had deen issued prior to the IN
''aug'Uation of the present (Ring) gorern-
's,aent." This is a whopper. Governor Orr,
in his message to the Scott Legislature,
(page y says: "On the lst of May, 1868,
"(when the Scott government came into
''power,) there 9ras outstanding and IN ctr-
'culationIofMese bills receivable only slS5,
"6S7" the amount actually outstanding
was less than half the amount stated in the
campaign address to have been in circula-
ton. To redeem this $780, 6S7 OF bills re-
ceivable, the Ring authorized the Governor
to contract loan OF 100000, and, accord
ing to the campaign address, s37O,ooo OF
State bonds was issued for the purpose. A
bond debt OF 1870, 900 is contracted in pay
ing floating debt Of sl35, ,6s7, and then the
Ring have the audacity to say that "these
''bonds are wholly chargeable to those VINO
preceded the present administration.

Now Julius Cesar died 18th March, B. C.

correct for we have no doubt that Tim.

a tender consideration for the reputation
of man who once wore "the grey" induc-
ed us to ask Adjutant- General Moses how
much money he received in commissions
from the purchase of the rifles he bought for
the State This way of making money
might find its justification in the moral code
OF the Ring. But Adjutant-General Moses,
while he does not deny that he received q
commission upon the arms whose purchase
he negotiated, distinctly states that no
money of the State has ever passed through
his hands as Adjutant-General, except the
monthly pay OF his clerks; and We are forced
to ask how he has contrived to amass a
fortune in two years, his only legitimate
income being bis pay as Speaker and as Ad-
jutant-General OF the State. During the
last two years Adjutant-General Moses has
bought lands in Sumter and Clarendon Coun-
ties, costing, in the aggregate, Sll3,O in.
elusive OF the purchase of the Peter Richard
son plantation for S12,00 cash. Besides
this, Mr. Moses, who was head-oyer-ears in
debt has paid of his old liabilities at the
rate Of thirty cents on the dollar Does
Mr. Moses dare deny these charges in these
columns ? Can he deny that he has made,
in two years, money enough TO enable him
to buy lands and pay OF debts to the tune
OF about $3.50, 600?

Sarah on the piano. They became not only

her accomplishments and refinement. He be-
came an intimate and correspondent OF the
family. No one in Madison suspected any
thing save mere matter of musical sympathy
and friendship. The pleasant relations cul-
minated in the violinist escorting the mother

did not lose the opportunity of taking them
to his beautiful estate in Norway. Here was
everything to charm the eye and ear. 1t is a
magnificent spot, and in It's walks and bowers
the smooth-tonguea but great-hearted musi'
clan whispered siren words. He had travelled
the world over, but never had seen one to en-
trance him like Miss Sarah Thorpe, Of Madi-

to the union, and on sunny day in June

that famous mansion, Ole Bull and Miss
Thorpe were married. They came back very
quietly, and passed through Chicago almost
without discovery. They surprised the dead
old town OF Madison by arriving there at
late hour at night. But hr and Mrs. Thorpe
knew that they were coming, and had called
in hundred or so of friends to celebrate the
event.
