MARRIED AGAIN. - About
twenty years ago decree OF
divorce was granted to A. w.
Currie by the district court.
Currie went through the war and
at its close emigrated to Bra
iii. Currie had passed out of
recollection, when some months
ago, district clerk Moore, re-
ceived letter from him dated
Santa Barbara, Province of
San Paulo, Brazil, stating that
he was about to get married
again and desired a certified
copy of the decree of divorce,
but enclosing no money, giving
as a reason that no United
States currency could be had
at the time. Mr.. Moore is a
married man himself. and being
unwilling to put any obstacle in
the way Of any other man mar
rying, and being convinced that
Currie wanted to marry at once,
sent the coveted document.
The other day Mr. Moore re-
ceived a letter from Mr.. Currie
enclosing the fees for the docu-
ment, and returning him many
thanks for his kindness. Currie
is no doubt comfortably mar
ried to a Brazilian lady with a
large plantation and hundreds
of slaves.

INDIANAPoLIs,S Sept. 19.-The execution
of Louis Gettig took place at noon. He
murdered Mary McGlew just one year ago
to day. because she refused to renew a
marriage engagement with him which she
had previously broken off on account of his
habits of dissipation. He has! had two
trials and was sentenced to death both
times. He has seemingly been Indifferent
to his fate and oGly last night would he
consent to the ministration of the clergy.
At 1850 he mounted the scatfold and
during all the proceedings he maintained
truly wonderful exhibition of nerve. He
spoke few words asking forgiveness of
any he had wronged and announced him
self ready to suffer the penalty Of the law
without complaint. He then turned and
walked about the scaffold, shaking hands
and bidding good bye to acquaintauces
while he nodded and smiled to those be
could not reach. Again turning he took
his place on the trap apparently with less
feeling than those who we're looking at
him. As the bells were striking y the
drop fell and 10 l6 minutes he was dead
