LONELINESS ON THE IN
CREASE A marked increase of te-
male loneliness is the eye-delighting re-
suit Of the immense popularity which
UAGAN's MAGNOLIA BALM has obtained
among the ladies of America. Com
plexions radiant with snowy purity and
and tinged with the roseate hue Of
health are commonly met with when
ever it is used For the sallow and
unwholesome appearance of the face
and neck, which utterly counterbalances
the effect of any personal attraction the
owner may possess, it substitutes that
clear, pearl-like complexion which is
such a transcendant charm in woman,
and renders the toughest skin as soft as
Genoa velvet. No one is more aston
ished than the person using it at the
marvellous transformation which it eff
fects i'll these particulars.

SrUARr's GRAvE.-A letter from
Richmond to the Petersburg Index,
SAYS
The presentation to the State of Nir-
rinia of marble bust of General }. +.
b. Stuart, made by Valentine, recalls to
mind that. upon the death Of the great
leader. the Council of Richmond sought
from Mrs. Stuart the privilege of having
his remains inferred i'll Hollywood, and
Obligated itself to erect over his grave
a monument suitable to commemorate
the life of so eminent soldier and so
excellent a man. Mrs. Stuartreluctant-
ly assented to the proposition, and he
was buried here. Though eleven years
have passed, the Council has taken no
further action, and the resting-place OF
the great cavalryman remains to this
day unmarked by more than very
simple slab. 1t is not thus because our
people have lost all gratitude or ceased
to reverence Stuart's memory-only be-
cause no one has, up to this time, con-
sldefed it his duty to resurrect the mat
ter and give it that personal attention
ne, es AIRY to carry it through success
fully. 1t is to be hoped that this long
forgotten pledge will not much longer
remain unredeemed.

A MYSTERIOUS MURDER.-Tbe assas-

A MYSTERIOUS MURDER-Tbe assas-
sination of DR.. Merryman Cole has
scarcely faded from the public mind, be-
fore the city is startled by another muir
der surrounded by mystery almost
equally impenetrable. The particulars,
as far as they are at present known, are
given in our news columns. Mrs. Anne
liza Wheat was an old lady of eighty
wears, residing nearly on the extreme
limits of the city,at 664 West Lombard
street, few doors above Mount street.
She was possessed of considerable
wealth, and her heir was understood
to be her nephew. Jesse Uprercue, a
Young man twenty-five years of age, a
graduate of St. Johns College, and a
student of Law in the Office of John p.
Poe, Esq, who with his mother and
sister resided in the same house. About
two o'clock Yesterday morning the sharp
report of pistol-shot was heard in the
room of Mrs Wheat. The cry of MUIR
der was raised by young Uppercue, from
the front door, and upon an Inspection
of the chamber in which Mrs. Wheat
slept, her body was found lying on the
bed, with pistol shot through the tenn
pie. She had apparently died calmly,
and without a struggle. The room was
in disorder. The only statement pur
porting to give clue to the murder is
that of yong Uppercue himself. Accor
ding to his declaration he was in his
usual apartment, in the second story,
next to that of his aunt, when she called
him to come into her room, and remain
there, saying that she felt nervous. He
complied with her request, and fell
asleep. He was awakened by the re-
port of the pistol; perceived the form !
man retreating from the roo, anu ~:
followed him. firing two sbS, 81 mo,n a us
revolver at him, withc@' aPp"i CIV me-;
From this statemr~" the tneory would
he formed that robbers had broken into
tho bonse. aud were the perpetrators of
the crime The testimony before the
iary goes to discredit it, tosome extent,
this supposi;ion. An examination of
the kitchen-door. through which the
robbers are said to have entered result
ed i'll distinct and unequivocal opinion
from the officers who were on the prem
ises, that the door had not been forced
from the outside. Suspicion, we regret
to say, has fallenupon young Uppercue.
The jury who heard the testimony, new
ertheleSs, have not thought it sufficient
" strong to warrant a verdict against
him. His previous good character, the
affection his aunt entertained Tor him,
and the contradictory nature of the evil
dence, so far elected, are in his favor.
There is also the further fact that there
appears to have been family teud, in
which young Uppercue was involved,
resulting from the Partially shown by
Mrs. Wheat for him, and which may
have tinged the testimony Of some of
the witnesses. A day or two will prob
ably clear up muah that is now obscure,
and enable the public to for a better
Judgment as to the guilty party or par
ties-Bah. GnzeHe of Wedne>day.

The Virginia EiopemeDt-Arre't Of
James F. Clark

RICHMOND, Va, August 25.-James
F. Clark, late editor of the Manassas
Gazette, who recently deserted his fam
lily and abducted young lady named
Fanny Jewell, daughter of the depot
agent at Manassas, was arrested in King
George county, yesterday, at the in
stance of the young lady's father. He
was taken to Fredericksburg, and adj
mitted to bail to answer the charge of
abduction.
The particulars of this case are very
sad. 1t is alleged that Clark, after first
removing his wife and children from
Manassas to the house of his wifes pa
rents in King George county, he return
ed and arranged for the elopement Of
Miss Fewell, who was only some fifteen
years of age. They were married, il is
further alleged, on reaching Washing
ton, and went to the town of Mexico,
Missouri. Here Clark left her, intend
ing to seek employment elsewhere. Not
hearing from him, she managed to get
to Cincinnati, where the police authori-
ties furnished her with transportation
to Washington, but just before leaving
Cincinnati she met Clark, who had
heard of her presence and sought her
out. 1t appears that they came on to
Washington together, Clark going home
to his wife, and leaving Miss Fewell in
Washington. She was there met by
her friends on Saturday and taken home
to Manassas. She was unable to name
the minister who is said to have per
