AGIrl of Fifteen TwIcO Married Within

\ Girl OF Fifteen twice Married Within
Two Years.
From the Somerset tMdl Herald -
The marriage OF Miss Ella Shores to Mr..
Howard L. White oil Danes Quarter district,
Somerset county, on the 9th inst, deserves
more than u passing notice. Doubtless
many Of our readers remember Miss Shores
as the thirteen-ycar old bride OF Sidney
Shores; il they do not VIC will refresh their
memories. On the 9Th OF February, 1850,
the Rev. H. Bowen, united the last named
parties in marriage; on the 9th OF the same
month Shores was arrested at his home in
DamesQ uarter,an Rev. Bowen was arrested
in Mount Vernon, and taken before Justice
A. X. Robinson, OF Princes Anne, and
committed to Jail in default Of bail. Miss
Shores was thirteen years OF age and the
step-daughter OF Sidney Shores, who was
between IS and 40 years old. In the first
place the said Sidney had married his
unclc's widow, and she had not been dead
more than two months when he induced
his wife's daughter by her first husband to
marry him. The child was too young to
know any better, and no blame was Mt

$500 is imposed upon man for taking 10
wife step.dnughter; and the minister,
upon conviction, is fined St,500 for per.
forming the ceremony.
Both Shores and Bowen were indicted Mt
the April term Of court 1850. Both trials
took place during the same term. Shores
was convicted and a fine OF $500 was impos-
ell upon him, he to stand committed until
fine and costs were paid. The convict was
poor man, and il theterms Of the sentence
were to be carried out, it lookrd rs though
the groom would pass the remainder OF his
days in Jail. Fortune favored him, how
ever, and he escaped from jail on the Goth
Of May, 1850, and We have not heard from
him since. Mr. Bowen was tried by jury,
and acquitted on the ground that he did
not know the girl or the affinity existing
between her and Shores. The whole affair
created quite talk ut the time, and the
city paper had longand inaccurate accounts
oft.
The marriage OF Sidney and Ella was set
aside or annulled by the court. The re-
spcctive ages OF Howard Il. White and Ella,
his wife, are 10 and 10 years. So it will be
seen that on the same day OF the same
month, two years after her first marriage,
the said Ella was for the second time uni
ted in the holy bonds Of matrimony; and
that her last husband is about half us old
us the tirstone. May they live long and
prosper,

General Grants Charmed Life.

General Grant has charmed life. Ten days ago
he sat in railroad car that was dumped oil a
bridge into a creek and smashed to pieces, yet
when the passengers from other parts OF the train
came to help the wounded, Grant sat in the wreck
like sphinx, smoking his cigar. Last Monday he
started out from his cottage at Long Branch to in
dulge in his usual afternoon drive He is exceed
ingly fond of a good trotter, and seeks the back
roads at the Branch to speed his animal as " ell
as to get away from the crowds that throng the
beach drive However to reach the country he
was forced to pass along the main avenue, and he
was there stopped, with many other carriages, by
balky team. During this delay saddle horse,
erHl, became fractious, and kicking up his heels,
knocked away the dasher of the Generals new
carriage and broke wheel. The occupant quietly
bundled up his lines. chewed his cigar, and
waited for the beast to come at him again.-PhQa-
deiphia Record.
National Republican., 1882-07-18
"stop Piling Up the Majority"

"For Gods sake stop piling up the
majority" Such, it is said, was the
frantic appeal of the chairman of the
National Democratic Committee in Au-
gust, 1880, by telegraph to the chairman
of the Democratic State committee of
Alabama. The industrious Bourbons
were OVERRIDING their work. Chairman
Turner, of the Republican State central
committee of Alabama, in stirring ad-
dress to the Republicans of that State
alludes to the telegram referred to, and
argues from it that fear of the harm it
will do their cause in the North may, to
considerable extent, restrain the Ala
bama Bourbons from the perpetration of
frauds at the coming State election. The
Endorsement Of the Independents by the
Republicans of that State gives an earnest
that our Republican friends care less for
mere party names, offices, or prestige than
they do to make as effective as possible
their votes by an affiliation with men
who will cooperate with them for a free
and honest ballot-boX.
