. A,PAINFUL RUMOR.

The absence Of Chief Justice Comegys
from the bench at: the New Castle Court
for Monday, was perhaps noticed by the
readers Of the HERALD yesterday. An m
quiry at the time elected the fact that he
was feeling decidedly unwell. Since then
q rumor is go,ter out to the effect tsat ne
illness of the Chief Justice was owing to
something resembling smallpox. Whether
this is true or not we do not pretend TO say,
and are only able to give the matter as
rumor. 1t Is known to be fact that Miss
Maggie Douglass, Chi. A. Justice ComeeyS
niece, has been attacked with something
strongly resembling varioloid. As he Is
stopping at her house at present, 1t Is
likely that he also has been affected.
Yesterday the Chief Justics sent . note
to the judges in which he said that ne felt
somewhat unwell, and woald not be able to
be present that day. '010'''' 80"

He had been in the habit Of
standing on the curbstone in front
of the church after service and
waiting for his girl As he prided
himself greatly upon bis politenesa
in public places, he invariably, even
after their betrothal, stepped up to
her, and dofing his hat requested
permission to see her home. The
first time that they went to church
together after they were married
they were unable to secure seats TO-
gether. This, however, did moi
worry him. He secured a seat fol
his vile, and at once sought his olC
quarters by the stove, and among
some of his old cronies. After ser
vice was over he absent-mindedly
walked out with the boys and took
his old stand on the curb-stOno

county, Kentucky, a few miles
from Covington, left his home for
Clarksville, Tennessee. He arrived
at Louisville and stayed over for
the night at one of the prominent
hotels, where he met an old enemy.
They resumed their ancient quarrel,
and Falls struck his opponent on
the head with pistol, knocking
him down, when friends interfered
and separated them. They then
agreed to settle the feud the next
day with pistols in the mountains
Of Kentucky, and according to
agreement they met the next day
and concluded their preparations,
They took a train and left the city
for the mountains, unaceompanied
by friends or spectators, and from
that day to this not a word has
been heard from Philip Fall or his
enemy. Search and inquiries have
been made, but all are fruitless, ant
