BEATEN FOR ONCE.-We mean the
gossips and newsmongers of San Mar.
cos, in the matter Of the marriage on
Wednesday. 1t was almost complete
surprise. 1t is true, so far as the lady
was concerned, it was suspected, as We
learn, by some of her starp.sighted
cd sisters; but as to who was the "hap-
py man." all was in the fog, and some
rather wild aud silly copjectures and
rumors were set afoat in consequence.
We had not previously supposed that
a marriage could take place here with.
out its being generally known before
hand. The parties in the case before
US are fairly entitled to premium.

The Breathitt Trouble.

CiNciNNArI. December %. The news from
Breathitt Co, Ky. is again exciting. but con-
tlicting. One report says that the soldiers
have arrested Tom Jerry and Alfred Gam
bier, who are now in Jail awaiting the action
of the grand jury for planning an attack on
the lite of Judge Randall, the day he arrived
there to hold court.
Another report confirms the arrest of these
men, but says that Lyndon, the new county
judge, is partisan of the strong party. and
the men so far arrested belong to the oppos-
ing side. 1t is thought by persons who I'M
derstand the relations of the factions to each
other, that the murder of Lyndon is a fore
gone conclusion.

SMALL POX.
Terrible Ravages Reported in Ceara
City, Brazil.
THE DEATHS AS HIGH AS 500 AND
600 DAILY.

NEW YORK, December IS. Capt. VIM.
Meir of steamship City of Rio Janeiro. which.
arrived yesterday. says that the rayages of
small poX in Ceara are terrible. just before
sailing for New York, Capt Meir told
that the people we're diving with such rapidly
II was impossible to make collins To supply
the demand. and the people dug bitches and
tumblcd into them the unsheltercd dead,
eight or ten at time.
The deaths from small pox were high rs
500 and GOO daily in Ceara city alone, and it
was with great difficulty persons could be
found to carry the victims to burial in the
bitches.
The city was crowded when the small pox
broke out, with refugees from the interior of
the province, who had been driven by the
terrible famine which visited the provinces
t,w months since. Among those refugees al
ready weakened by famine, small pOx ragged
with fearful ravages.
The brazilian government is now doing all
in its power to alley late the distress of suffer
crS.
The country outside Ceara has suffered less
than the city. because there were simply few
or people to be- attacked.
During the famine the government sent
away all people there, about 10000, scatter
ing them all over Brazil. One thousand
were sent to Para, where they were employed
by Collins brothers for construction of the
Mamorc railroad.
| Captain Mcir SAYS while small pox in Cea-
ra cannot be exaggerated there is no truth
in the report that the people in the interior of
the province are compelled to devour carrion
and corpseS. The inhabitants left in the
country are so few that government now has
no difficulty in supplying all the food they re-
quire.
Concerning the Americans who went to
Brazil to work upon the Mamore Railroad,
not more than 20 are still at work. The re-
mainder have scattered in all directions. find
