The Elisabeth Elopsraen.

1t came to the ears Of New York Her
|ad reporter Sunday, that considerable 0
a autter had been cause in the upper cir
cles Of Elizabeth, IN. J,) society in consc'
quencs Of an elopement which took plac.
there recently. A visit to Elizabeth ard
diligsnt inquiry developed the fact that
'the, lady in the cass'' was the daughter Of
= church deacon in Union township and
one Of the handsomest women Of the coun.
|ty-tall, blackssyed, black.haired, full
formed and altogether Of most fascinating
appearance. From her father, the deacon,
she inherited the snug little, fortune Of
r$25,00e. ~ Five Or six years ago she MR.
ried the nephew of one Of the most distiu-
guished citizens Of Elizabeth--a gentleman
who now hold, one Of the highest Offices in
the gifts Of the municipality. Her hus.
band served g.llantiy,in the federal army
during the late war and won BY his brave
y II, rank Of captain. Upon his mar
riage to the fascinating daughter Of the
deacon he was the envied Of most Of the
beauty-admiring males Of the tswn. Two
children were, tAs result of the marriage.
Ere they had long lived together, howev-
or, it seems marked incompatibility Of
temperament manifested itself between
them. The Captain is man Of quiet, re-
firing habits, but his wife is fond Of gaiety,
company and fashion. Besides, he was
not as wealthy as she supposed, and,
therefore, could not maintain her in the
luxury she coveted. For years, however,
there was no break between them until re-
Gently there turned up on the scene an old
hane Of the lady's-a dashing beau Of
hers before her m. rriage, from whose 80
cisty she had been debarred by her dis
cerning parent, tho deacon. The upshot
Of the story is that she eloped with him,
taking $4,000 with her and one of the
children. Every effort ha, been made to
keep these facts from the public but, a. il
invariably the case, these efforts have only
lent wings to the affair. 1t is proper to
add that the deserted Captain has the SYM
pathy Of all who know of his unfortunate
domestic trouble.

A Lsve Episode.

A case, slightly tinged with romance,
came up at the Tombs Police Cou,t in New
York, Sunday morning, before Justice o.
terbourg. Two years ago Annie Craft left
her fathers home in Bath, Me-, and came
to this city, where an elder sister of hers
then resided. She was seventeen years Of
age at the time, pretty and bright. Meet
ing her sister here, she remained with her
for some time, when she obtained employ
ment. She continued ID make her own
livelihood until about two weeks ago, when
she went to board al tho White Star Hotel,
Chambers street. Here she became &C.
qdaintsd with Bartender named Harry
Keenan,, who prides himself on Lis deet-
ness of foot, Annie became 'enan,ored Of
him. On Saturday Keenan, ran a five
mile race and won, and he at oncs became
. hero in the eyes Of thu, fair Miss Graft,
who was on hand to witness hi. triumph.
Keenan, and Miss Craft returned to the
city in the evening and went to the hotel.
All this time an uncle Of the girl was on
tho track, and had traced them W where
they lodged. Late On Saturday evening
he called on, Captain Saunders, Of the
Twenty-seventh precinct, and after relating
some circumstances in Inference 10 bis
niecs, Detective Mulvey was detailed to 60
and arrest her and her lover. He found
them occupying the same apartment at The
White Star Hotel. At the Tombs yesterr.
day the young woman expressed her will
ingness to marry Keenan,: She said her
step-mother had forced her from home, and
she'had made her own living ever since.
The uncle, who appeared to be very solici-
tous for the welfare Of his niece, was op-
posed to any such arrangement as mar
riage, especially with such man as he
though keenan, to be. Justice Otterbourg
took the young girl aside and after speak,
ing to her with fatherly wisdom for some
time, picturing to her the ruin to which
she was rushing, she calmed the ardour Of
her feelings and consented to 60 home
with her uncle and be Happy. .'7a'1' "'. =

THE vINELAND TRAGEDY, ITs
LESSON.

The terrible drama, which may end b,
the conviction of Lands for murder, il
the first or second degree, was the out
growth Of the licentiousness Of the press
Tho taking Of humsa life ycan never b,
excused unless under those circumstances
wherein homicide is justifable; heuct
Lands will have to bear tho legal conse
quances Of his deed; as the killing q
Carruth was neither justidable, not excss
able. Thelamentable ending ofthe editor,
life will, We trust, be warning to those
editors, who assume to themselves the right
to devil man almost to death, BY inuen.
do, and calumuY. It is matter Of ssr.
prise that more cases of violent attack
upon editors do not take place; as netting
is more calculated to enrage a man, than
constant newspaper abuse. Carruth vis-
lated every duty of a journalist, by tearing
spsn the seal, which properly guards the
sanctuary Of ones home, and exposed ths
in6rmitiss Of temper, and domestic trouble
which seethed around the hearthstene 81
the Lands family. With the constaucy Of
undying hate, Carruth kept up the abuse
Of Lands, frenzied with passion, laahsd
and goaded into an agony Of vengeance,
he armed himself, and while sAame, slew
his tormentOr; and wrote in blco l, murder.

Carruth by persistent calumsy became

crime Of Lands. .."i' l"T"l'I IF'
A great doctor Of common Law
says: "there are four ways enc
may become an accessory to
another's crime, to wit by counsel, by
command, by consent, and by provocation,
the civil, and common law, both admit the
force of the dicta of the canonists. 1t may
seem strange to argue that Carruth was at
accessory to the crime of Lands, but judged
by the rule above given he clearly was, as
he gave undoubted provocation. D.
The licentiousness of the press will bt

i MOODY AND SANKEY.
What effect will the mission have upo

those who think not. We trust We vii
not bs misunderstood, in our comment
ason the gentleman, and their methods q

upon any movement, which leads men t
mend their ways; and if Mr.. Noody's un
GRAMMATICAL speeches, and brother San key
singing produce COED results, we say II
them-God speed. ',. .r-l
The mission Of tho gentlemen, to oul
mind will be miserably disastrous to re
ligion, when the emotions, they nurse int
active power subside. 1t is a moral cpl
dsnic, and no mere. The familiarity with
which Mr.. Moody treats holy things
tends to disintegr.te, and destroy, the lit.
tie reverence left in our National charac-
ter.@.s. Climb up on John, take hold oi
john is the way be speaks Of the BE-
loved evangelist; given, that he ,drags to
!, the foot Of tho alter, q sinner by his
emotions. What law does he give him, to
regulate his conscience, and guide him in
the performance of bis duty? None. We
are believers i, denominational organiza-
tion, and Of the discipline, dogma, and
.csremonies resultant therefrom. The emo
tional generalities, of Mr., Mosdy, cannot
influence any longer than the continuance
Of his personal power over his hearers; and
may disturb and destroy, the abiding faith
many Christians, have in the dogmatic
teachings Of their church. taking hold
Of John" and such like generalities, are
not the christians anchor, which hold
men in the day Of trouble. 49,. .
Their mission, is 10th century manifes-
tation Of the old disease, which afflicted
England, in the days of the Runp Parlia-
ment, and Cromwell, and that was followed
by the avalanche Of impurity, which swept
away the cant Of the Puritans, and the
snivel Of the Independents. No people
have ever been won over to christianity,
unless by preachers, commissioned by some
ecclesiastical authorities; and every effort
in the past, akin to the present one, have
failed, and been followed by disastrous,
and scandalsus reaction. Better far that the
time, energy, and money wasted in this re-
vival, were used by the existing churches
for the gathering in Of the poor, and ne
elected ones, into the folds, they have =.
fatty for, by early teaching or church a.
tendance. Their method is not the Chris
tian method, it bears the stamp Of the wild
enthusiast who storms the reason, throws
down Christian landmarks, warns the
emotions into religious frenzy, and ends by
disintegrating organized religious ssciefies,
weakening the bonds Of denominational
adherence, and in fact lessening the num-
Der Of practical Christians, whose deeds are
redolent with the aroma Of good works.
We are aware, it is akin to treason, to 70
peak at present; wait awhile, Christian
reader, and don't pass Judgment upon W,
or few months until you cool and think.
In the context, think Of Gee. H. Stuart,

THE RACK HTLEH

Col. F. w. Bentine, of the Seventh
Cavalry, with a detachment of about
one hundred men, left Fort Randall
some ten days ago, for the Black Hills.
to bring back about one hundred and
twenty miners, who. were wandering
around in pursuit Of gold. Straggling
parties had returned to Randall from
the hills, the men having been thor
oughly satisfied with their experiences
in the golden valleys and among the
auriferous hills. They say there is
some gold there, but it is too thinly
scattered to be of any practical use.

who were brought back from the hilIsa
month or two ago, and who have been

CAMP MEETINGS.


The Spirit Lake Beacon, speaking of
the evils attending the recent camp
meeting 1T the lakes, says: cT5~
Does the amount of good accom-
plished outweigh these unavoidable
evils? Might not the same amount of
labor exerted in some other way save
Just as many souls, and at the same
time escape these i'll effects? We ask
these questions in the interest of moral
ity. and are firm in the belief that
should the camp meeting system, as
now practiced, be forever abolished, it's
disappearance would be hailed with JOY
by large majority of all classes.
We have no doubt that camp meet
ings under proper regulations and re-
strictions, result in great deal of good.
The revival of the camp meeting upon
the plan adopted at Ocean Grove, Sing
Sing. White Plains, and other places in
the East, has been welcomed by Chris
tian people as means Of combining
the highest enjoyment with the accom-
plishment of great good. Large num-
bers of the business men of New York
and other cities, feeling the need of a
few weeks respite for themselves and
their families in the summer, choose
the camp meeting rather than the wa
tering place, and thus are annually
making their three or four weeks of
"summering' also season of spiritual
refreshment and elevation. But these
camp meetings are under the strictest
police regulations, just as those at
Spirit Lake must be if they are to result
in much good.
