Now that Col. Noycs hns been elected
State Treasurer, Republican editors who,
up to- the very last day of the campaign,
persisted in the calumny that he had voted
in the Legislature of 1870 for the Nine Mil
lion Bill, when they knew that he was not
then a member of the House, will probably
conclude that systematic falsehood about
:. Io,itical opponent will not pay in the long
run, and that a lie well stuck to is rot as
good as the truth.

THE most singular feature Of the election
in the city Of New York was the defeat of
Augustus Schell, the regular Democratic,
Tammany Hall, candidate for State SeDa-
tor, by John Norrssey, who ran as an anti
Tammany Democrat, and was supported
by all the factions in the district opposed to
the dcspotic rule of rammany Ual. Nor
rissey's majority is almost 4, 600. The dis
trict embraces one Of the most aristocratic
and fashionable portions Of tie city, and
is said TO represent more wealth than any
other district i'll the United States. Nor
rissey ceased to be State Senator last
spriuG, but he represented another district,
and only a short time ago moved into the
one from which he has just been elected,
expressly, as he said, to defeat the Tam
many candidate. He was supported by
such men as Peter Cooper, William Cullen
Bryant, the As:ors, phelpses, Dodges, and
others almost equally as well known. Al
though Morrissey long since abandoned the
business Of prize fighter, it is veil known
that he is the proprietor of the mos: elegant
and fashionable gambling saloon at Sara
toga springs. lie is regarded as strictly
honest aud as a legislator above aud beyond
all corrupt influences. Mr.. ScheIi is one OF
the foremost men in the city, anG is a cou-
spicuous leader Of the Tammany Hall as
socaiion. His defeat, therefore, by man
of so questionable a character as John Nor
r;ssey shows that the power of Tammany
Hall i'm rho prl;ticaI affairs of Now Ynrk -
rapidly on the decline.

MARRIED HIS Own SIsTER-A ;ich lead
of romance has been struck at Oakland
Md. A poor farmer lives there, self-exiled,
self-b buried, among strangers, simply be-
cause he married his sister without know
ing it. When he was lad of seven. and
she lass of three, she was kidnapped, and
her parents never heard of her again, al
though they expended thousands in search
ing for her. The heart broken mother
died soon after the loss of her darling, and
the father wandered over Europe, and fin
ally settled in New York, where he died .
The brother grew to manhood, ami the
memory of his lost sister was almost effaced
from his mind. In his twenty seventh
year, willie visiting married friend, he
fell in love with the goveIness OF his friend s
children, a beautiful girl of about twenty
three, aud after come months they were
married, and lived happily for five or six
years, a boy and girl being born to them
during that time. by the death of an un-
Gle i'll San Francisco the husband was left
a considerable fortune, and the lawyer who
conveyed the intelligence to him, also sta
ted to hum that his sisters cai eer had been
traced. tramp on his death bed in st.
Louis police station confessed that he and
two companions had stolen a little girl, for
her clothes and a locket which size wore.
and that she continued with them for sew
ersl years, when her bright, pretty face at
tracted the attention of kind hearted lady
in Ohio, who adopted her and sent her to
school. where she remained until her pa
trOness died. She then became teacher
in 4 large school in Cincinnati, but as her
health began to fail she applied for posi-
ton as goyerness. My God ~ cried tho
client, "she has been my wife for five
years" He had married his own sister.
They divided the property and placed
their children under the roof Of friend,
aud then separated forever.

STRANGE COINCIDENCE Saturday
the Sd of the present month, a twelve
year-old girl named Mary Sloser left her
home on Harrowgate lane, near Frankford,
with a basket Of apples to sell, the profits
OF which were TO appease the hunger of
her parents, who are both i'll and in desti-
tute circumstances. Since her departure
at that time she has not been seen nor
heard from, and the folks at home are of
course in great distress about her proiong-
ed absence. The child is of medium build
has dark complexion and dark hair, and
wore a green striped dress, red figured
table cover as a shawl and brown woollen
cap. singular circumstance in connec-
ton with this disappearance is that a
brother of the girl nine years ago, and
when of the same age, started into the city
to peddle matches, and was never heard
from afterward. Philadelphia Record.
