Runaway Matches by Two Brothcrs and Two
sisiers-An Abandoned wife.
Mrs Eliza Hawthorne tainted in the
Washington Place Police Court Yesterday before
the Justices bench. She had come with her
mother, Mrs. Dr. LoWnes OF l0l East Nineteenth
street to substnntiate a charge Of abandonment
against her husband. 1t was upon the appear
ance Of the husband, who was led In with other
prisoners, that she gave way.
In the early part OF last year two daughters Of
Dr. Lownes were receiving the addresses OF two
brothers, John and Charles Hawthorne. The
girls parents opposed the intimacy, and DR..
Lownes forbade tho young men 20 enter his
house. The girls slipped out slyly one evening,
aud were married To the Hawthornes in the
house Of friend. DIR. Lownes cast on his
daughters. Charles and his wife lived happily
for short time at tho house OF his mother, 30
Waverley place. Then he lost ON plOyment, and
they were dependent for support upon his
mother who dsliked the young wife. A child
was born TO the couple, and four DAYS afterward
Mrs. Lee went to tho Infant Asylum at "a Cln-
ton place, and, representing herself to he a mis-
siOnary procured the admission OF the mother
and child. She said that the mothers name was
Horton, and that she had found her IN destitute
circumstances. Mfa. Hawthorne remained In
the Institution untf she was recognized by a
physician who was acquainted with her father
Yh the mean time, so she testified In court, she
had repeatedly written TO her husband, but bad
received no answer nor did he 60 TO see her.
The husband testified that he had done the
best he could to support his wife, but had no
money being himself supported entirely by his
mother. He had sought his wife In almost every
asylum in the city, but could not mud her. Her
letters had never been received by him. He

REAL RErR ENJOYMENT.
A Saving to the People Of s5.O0O,O 900 Year
to be Elected bV Congress.

wAsuINaToN, Feb. 2O.--The House Com
mittee on Appropriations will probably not have
the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial bill
ready to report before Feb. %. Thus far the
legislative portion has not been completed,
although II will be ready In q few days. The
knife has been applied with remorseless
vigor to the excrescences which have grown up
In both ends OF the Capitol during the past
twenty years, and a saving Of more than 100000
per annum will be effected. The inquiry which
the committee has made into the man agement
OF the House side during the past ten or fifteen
years has developed some startling facts In re-
gard to the squanderlne OF public moneys. For
instance, the folding room has cost nearly $4,000
year; and, taking the average number OF books
folded each year, each volume has, according to
thsse figures, cost over twenty eight oonts.
Responsible persons will take the contract at
one cent a volume. Another piece of indefon-
eible extravaganza. which THE SUN has ex-
posed, the horse and carriage swindle, hasIeen
cut on by the committee. This will effect an
annual saving OF nearly 5000, and still leave
the House with every needful facility for the
prompt delivery to members OF mails and
documents. In tho Clerks office very large re-
ductiOns have been made. seventeen clerks
have been dispensed with, and salaries have
been reduced more than twenty per cent.
little Ring in tho journal Clerks ONCE has man
aged to increase their own salaries enormously,
and to accomplish this all salaries OF the subor-
dlnates at both ends Of the Capitol were also
run up. 1he Clerk Of the House, with his sal l.
ry and requisites, received about $500, and the
salaries In his ofice were enlarged in proportion.
The committee have cut down the Clerk to
$500, and cut OF all his perquisltes.
The reductions In the Internal Revenue Blu
reau amount to $1,000. the Secretary OF tho
mittes last Saturday, and gave the members
much valuable Information. He pointed out
he said were indefcnsible. The Chairman Of
the committee is confident that before they
