A SAD STORY OF New YORK LIFE.-Here
is story of the saddest side of New York llte:
Not many days ago there was 4 fashionable
marriage in one of our uptown churches The
bridegroom was remarkably handsome man.
of nearly thirty years Of age, well known IN
what is called fashionable society rs an asrec;-
BILE, liberal bachelor and ladies man. The
bride was lovely girl. belonging to one OF our
best known families and esteemed for her char
act r as much as admired for her beauty The
friends of both were present, and nothing sur,
prsing occurred at the ceremony, save tnat al
present remarked upon the appearance OF the
bridegroom He was apparently, so oppressed
by some great SORROW or anxiety that ne could
not smile nor command cheerful word
The pair had spent but a few days together
when the husband, after al interview with his
Young wife, which left her almost crushed III
mind, hastily called ut his late bachelor, rooms
which he had not yet given up, burned large
number of papers, packed up few precious
articles. and suddenly disappeared, and no one
of his friends now knows where he is to be found.
But one truth reached their ears too quickly.
At one Of our new hotels in the centre OF the
city. but Il few blocks from the church IN which
the marriage Was performed, there were found
:, woman and several children bearing his maine,
and she found no difficulty in establishing her
right to it, She is many years older than he.
They were married when he was scarcely more
than boy. and have never published the mar
rage; but they never quarrelled nor separated.
He still supported her and visited her; and on
the very day of the second marriage. at noon,
he made her long visit in his usual manner
This event has been sudden shock to both
families, and the absolute conccalment of his
marriage from all his friends for many years.
while his wife and children openly bore his
name in public hotels in this city: is as unac-
countable to them as it will be to others. The
young man'was for several years an Internal
Revenue officer in this city, but for some years
past has been employed in a bank down town.
He has paid $4,000 year tor the board of his
wife and children, while receiving a salary OF
only 81, 0A0, and and has yet maintained his
bachelor life with lavish expenditure. In his
rooms are said to have lain not far from hun,
dred suits of clothes. with expensive books, and
many other evidences Of wealth. But his &C
counts at the bank are said to be entirely cor
rect His full understanding Of what he was
doing appears from the fact that he carried to
the altar pistol, with the fixed purpose as he
afterwards said of blowing out his brains there
if the eeremney should be interfered with

Weather Report.
WASHINGTON, March 13.-0fce Signal
Bureau, 4:35 P.M.-Synopsis Of the weather
report for twenty-four hours: Clear and
fair weather has prevailed since last evening
south of Pennsylvania and the Ohio valley.
Clouds, with occasional light rains, have
moved from Illinois to Western Pennsylva-
mia. The storm which Sunday evening pre-
vailed in Connecticut and eastern New
York has moved to the northeast, beyond
our stations. The barometer has risen rap
idly on Lake Ontario, and it has been va
riable on the remaining lakes and in the
Southern States. A very sudden fall in the
barometer, with great increase of tempera-
ture and brisk southerly winds, are reported
from the western plains.
Probabihties.-Fair weather will proba-
bly, prevail Tuesday in the South and Mid
die Atlantic States, and threatening wea-
Their on the Gulf and in the Eastern States.
The storm now approaching from Ne.
braska will probably be felt on Lake Mich
ipan on Tuesday.
