Among the pure chinese, and es-
pecially among the higher classes, the
affair is a much longer and more seri-
ous one. From the almost Turkish
s%trictness with which females are Sc
cluded, it is comparatively rare that a
couple see each other previous to be-
trothal, and still more so that there
should be any acquaintance between
them. This has given rise to the nee
essary employment of a character
equivalent to the b~azvalan or mar
riage broker OF ancient Brittany, to
Mr.. Toys Partisan Matrimonial Agen-
cy Office, or the daily marriage adver-
tisements of our papers. Ifyour wish
is for marriage in the abstract, the
broker will find you a fitting partner
first, and negotiate the transfer after.
If you are less purely philosophical,
and wish to consult your own tastes
as well as the interests and increase OF
the nation, you are only to name the
party, and the broker becomes your
accredited ambassador. There is, how
ever, one preliminary point to be
ascertained. Has your intended the
same surname as yourself. If so, il
is a fatal difficulty, as the laws of
China would lot permit the marriage.
II, however, she is Chun and you are
lie, or she is Kwan or Yu, aud you
rejoice in any other patronymic mon
osyllable, the next step is for the
broker to obtain from each tablet
containing the name, age, date and
hour Of birth, etc. These are then
taken to a diviner and compared, to
see il the union promises happiness;
if the answer is favorable land cross
ing the palm with silver is found to
be as effectual with fortune tellers in
China as it is elsewhere), and the
gates are equal, that is, if the station
and wealth of the two families are
similar, the proposal is made in due
form. The wedding presents are then
sent, and, il accepted, the young
couple is considered as legally be-
trothed. A lucky day must next be
fixed for the wedding, and here our
friend, the diviner, is again called
upon. Previous to the great day the
bridegroom gets a e hat and takes a
new name, while the lady, whose hair
has hitherto hung down to her heel,
in a single heavy plat, at the same
time is initiated into the style o.
hair dressing prevalent among
Chinese married ladies', which
consists in twisting the hail
into the form OF an exaggerated ties
pot, aud supporting it in that shape
with q narrow plate Of gold or jade
over the forehead, and a whole system
of bodkins behind it. On the weddinl
morning presents and congratulations
are sent to the bridegroom, and anon,
the rest a pair Of geese; not sent, Al
we might imagine, by some wicked
wag or irreolalmable bachelor, as {
personal reflection on the intellectual
state Of his friend, but as an emblem
Of domestic unity and affection. TIT
ladies, too, in China as we'll as else
where, indulge in a little fashionable
crying on the occasion, and so tn
relatives OF the bride spend the morn
ing with her, weeping over her i'm
pending departure, or more probably
their own spinsterhoOd.

Then listen while / tell you. That
woman is a cousin to a former Presi-
dent of the United States, Martin Van
Buren,. Her maiden name was Van
Buren,, and she was born of a good and
historic family, up in Schodack, Rens
selaer county. Her parents intended
her to shine in society, and sent her to
a fashionable boarding school in Alba
ny, There at the age eighteen she
began a Irritation with a handsome
young fellow named Elliott. The fir.
tation ~deepened into infatuation. He
asked her parents consent to a mar
riage. They refused, wishing her to
marry into some blue blooded Knick
erbocker family. But love laughed at
parental frowns, and the young people
made a runaway match of it. Not a
particularly bad match, either, for
Elliott had a good deal of money, and
was a smart, active aud honorable
young man.
They went to California. There
Elliott speculated in mining stocks,
with dazzling success. His wife caught
the fever and speeulated, too. She
asked him for $1,000 TO buy diamonds,
but instead Of going to the jewelers.,
she sent TO the exchange, invested in
stocks, aud in a few hours, in a wild
furry Of the market cleared $4,000.
So it went. In a year they were looked
upon as one of the wealthiest couples
on the Pacific coast. They had the
finest house and drove the finest team
in San Francisco, and we're noted from
Oregon to Sonora for their lavish,
princely hospitality.
After some years-many years-of
prosperity, a sudden change came.
Elliott's losses in a single transaction
were reckohed with six figures. He
was engaged in a tussle with the 30
mama kings, and they we're too much
for him. Costly silks and laces and
furs and diamonds we're parted with.
Horses and carriages we're sold. Their
mansion went. Then, when all his
property was gone. Elliott was taken
sick and died. His wilo had Just
enough LETT to bury him and bring her
to New York. Here her relatives met
her with open arms, but no. She was
too proud to accept their bounty. So.
there she stands to day, a chamber
maid.
Last summer a millionaire mer-
chant from New York came down here,
saw her, learned her story and asked
her to mary him. She refused. She
bad promised Elliott, on his death
bed, never to marry again"

1taNNA9N 49,
Last Thursday morning +. 7. Sim
mons shot and instantly killed James
War, with a double barrel shotgun, on
the Obion river, 10 Dyer county. ten
miles northwest of Dyersburg. AS no
one who witnessed the killing was at
the COroner's inquest, it is difficult TO
get the particulars. which are about as
follows: At Simmons Ferry, on the
0bion river. was a ferryboat, the con-
troll of which was claimed by both
Simmons and War, who frequently
quarreled over its possession, resulting
IN bad feeling, hard words and threats.
The day before the shooting, War had
possession Of the boat aud made Sim.
mons swim the river with his horse.
The next day Simmons had tho boat
and was taking JEFF Richards. Jack
McGuire and FL. Merchant across the
river to attend Alex. Mitchell's fish
fry at Sandy Fork. As they neared
the other bank War appeared, with an
iron spike in his hand, and warned
Simmons not to land there. As the
boat neared the shore Simmons, who
was steering, told War that il he came
aboard he would kill him. AS the
boat touched land War stepped on il,
when Simmons fred one charge Of tho
gun into his left breast, laying tho
heart bare, and as he turned, the
other charge was fred into his back
War fell and instantly expired, with
his head over the gunwale and his
arms in the water. Simmons came 10
town aud surrendered himself 10
the custody Of Sheriff Tarrant, and
was being tried at the time Of our
paper going to press. War was a stout.
vigorous man, ~ years old, and known
as rather a turbulent character.

ments found by the grand jury were placed

cealed. Two indictments were
against DR.. E. M. Woodling,
one for assault on Geo. c. Knickert ecker,
and one for assault on G. NJ. Berry, both
with intent to do bodily harm. Woodling
was arraigned and plead not guilty to each

9th, and the defendant released on $500
bonds in each Indictment, which were fur
nished by j. H. Gould, J. E. Bell and s. w.
Melendy.
The other Indictment was against Elmer
Fuller for burglary. Fuller was brought
into court and given until o'clock this
morning to plead, and remains in the Gus
tody of the sheriff.
The jury found four indictments yester-
day, but in compliance to instructions
from County Attorney Hale, the court Off

testified to traces Of insanity in the Gui-

Mrs. Scoville first showed signs of insanity
when their son became sick. She fell in
love with the physician and confessed it,
but subsequently denied the confession was
made. She soon became violent, nervous
irritating and attempted to leave the
house, and confided all her griefs to the
servants, lost affection for her
family except to him. Within the past six
months she had deserted him, too. He re-

newspaper man, and confessed to witness
she loved Earle They wrote, AID sold the

Scoville was very intimate with George
