Aliok Hickman and Caroline Bass, both
cOlored, were to have been married last
Tuesday nights but. owing to the fact that
the groom failed to put in an appearance,
the nuptials we're not cOnsummated. Yes
terday morning one of the friends of the
would-be bride started out in search of the
truant groom. Coming up with Hickman at
the house Of friend, he detained him there
until the in iignant Caroline went before a
magistrate and Swore out a warrant against
her faithless lover. He was taken before
Justice Cassetty, and the female with
whose affections he had trihed was going
to institute a suit for damages, when Hick-
man agreed to marry her if she would
withdraw the warrant against him. To
this she gladly aSsented, and the fact be-
coming known that the man of her choice
did not have money enough TO purchase a
license, the couple left the court to rake
up the necessary amount Of lucre.

WHERE WEBSTER GOT. SUMNER.

Daniel Webster's financial notions were
always loose. The rights of property were
something which his mind, with all its Ca
paciiy, did not take in. When he was
quite young, and diligently practicins
law in Boston, Charles Summer and
himself were engaged by the Com
mOnwealth Of Massachusetts TO defend
suit that had been brought against
it. They were allowed $1,000 each for
their services. A few days later Webster
entered Summers Office, and said: "Sum-
ner, I'm going over TO the State-houSe to
draw my 81 900, and I'll draw yours, too, if
you like, to save you the trouble of going
there"
Sumner thanked him kindly; but, hay
ing some understanding of his legal
brothers peculiarities, remarked that he
did not care for the money just then, and
would prefer to let it lie.
Daniel rather insisted on getting it, and
Charles equally insisted that he should let
it alone. At last the latter said: "Oh,
well, do a you choose" and went out.
Webster went TO the State-house, drew Sum
ner's as well as his own money, kept it, and
never mentioned the Circumstance to his
late colleague. As may be imagined, the
famous expounder never discharged the
debt-in truth, Sumner never tried to col
lect it. He kEew that once having got it.
possession, especially with Webster, was
nine points of the law-if not several points
besides.

A Horse chief shot and Captured.

One Myers stole fine horse q few days
since from tie residence of MeSsrs. Ross
and Biles, living six miles northeast of
McAlinnyille, and started in the direction
of Kentucky. Arriving at Rock Island
late in the slight, the feryman, named
Rodgers, refused TO put him across that
stream, as il vas considerably swollen, and
by his persistence, he created a suspicion
in their minds that he was riding stolen
property. They informed him that he
would be ferried over early in the morning,
and he was also acquainted with their sus
picions as to the ownership OF. the horse he
was riding. The thief watched his chance
and jumped into a canoe and started to
paddle away for the other shore, when one
of the Rodgers sent load of buck-shot at
ter him, two of which took efEect-one in
the foot and one in the ankle. The thief
reached the opposite hank, but was cap
tured early the next morning, when the
owners Of the horse came up in pursuit.

Yesterday morning, Charley Wendell, a
VIGOROUSLY saucy negro, walked into the

il IS reported. accused Kerr to his face of
having "sworn a lie" at the same time in
dulging in other abusive language, when
the latter seized pistol and fired at tie
negro. The ball took effect in Wendelfs
side just above the nipple. Kerr went out
and got buggy and, in company with some
friends, drove rapidly away by the Salem
pike. Sheriff Ransom, having been ap-
priced of the facts, went in pursuit Of the
fugitive.
1t is reported that Wendell was up before
Recorder Bell yesterday morning, and that
Kerr appeared as witness against him. Ii
was to Kerr's testimony in the case that
Wendell alluded when he accused him Of
false swearing.
Wendell was living last night and some
hopes Of his recovery were entertained.

THE KIDNAPPING CASE.
Illinois Man Smith Released fgOm
she Henry County Jail.

George Washington La Fayette Smith,
the man who was arrested in Massac coun-
ty, Illinois, and brought to Henry county,
in this State, to be tried for murder, and
about whom Illinois got her back up,
charging that he had been kidnapped, has
been released from the Jail at Paris. The
following note from Alden 81 Fryer, coun-
sci at Paris, announces the fact to Gov.
Beveridge:
To His Excellency John L. Beveridge.-
Dear Sir: We had the qualification of set
ting @. w. L. Smith al liberty to-day. A
nolle prosequi was entered i'm his case, and
be and his family areOn their way 10 their
home. We sincerely hope this will be a
final settlement of the whole affair, and
that nothing more will arise to disturb
either the people or the authorities of Illi-
nOiS or Tennessee. We cannot help ex-
pressing the hope that you viii so regard
1t. Very respectfully, your obedient ser
wants, ALDEN & FRYER.
1t is believed that q. w. L. SIS release
was effected, partially at least, bya promise
made by his friends that, should the al
legged kidnappers be surrendered to Illinois
upon the requisitiOn of Gov. Beyeridge,
they would not appear either before the
grand jury 10 procure their Indictment, CT
before the court 10 testify against them,
and in this way the alleged kidnappers
would doubtless escape free.

HARRIET BEECHER STOWE.
A Little story About Her Interview
with Mrs. Theodore TIItOn.


1t may not be generally known that Mrs.
Stowe held several interviews with Mrs.
Tilton after the development Of the scan
dial. At the last one which took place, as
did the others, at Mr.. AbingtOn's house,
Mrs. Stowe asked her how she could be so
weak and wicked as to sign such a confess
sion if she knew it was false. Mrs. TiltOn
began to CRY, and said it was all Theodore's
fault. .ssae kept nagging at me all the
time" whined the poor little woman; she
wouldn't let me sleep at all, bat Just kept
naGging-nagging about my writing il, till
l was more than half crazy, and sometimes
| was under the influence of strong medi-
cine, and my poor head all in whirl, and
so l wrote anything for peace sake, just as
should again if lived with him.
When Mrs. Stowe rose n leave, she
passed her arm around Mrs. TiltOn's waist.
Mrs. L. looked al her in surprise. SHOW
can you be so kind TO me?n she asked,
aWhen have made you so much trouble "
because am so sorry for yOu," replied
Mrs. Stowe; Il am so sorry that any woman
can be so weak as to wreck so many lives
with her OWL. pity you from my very
heart"

The fashionable courtesy of giving a
dinner party, or any entertainment to a
visitor, is now carried to the extreme of
not only requesting the lady or gentleman
to name the people they would like to meet,
but to say what music would be pre-
ferred, and what there shall be for dinner.
A young lady, visiting friends in Boston,
was called upon by matron recently, and
invited to make up party for her house, it
being optional what form-whether Ger
man, reception or dinner-the affair should
take; in short, the ''invitee" gave the enter
tainment, and the fashionable hostess has
the privilege of paying the bills.
