A small landed property was put
up for auction in one of the eastern
counties in England the other day
whose value, some four years ago, was
reputed to be worth f25,OOO. The
utmost bid made for the estate of 400
acres was f9,Qee,s which was refused,
'snd the whole bought in by the
trustees. This is practical proof Of
the depreciation of the value of land
in corn-growing counties in England.
Much arabic land is running to waste
in these formerly prolific and valua-
bic counties. Hundreds Of acres are
lying uncultivated for want of capital
to pay the labor necessary.
Two sisters were engaged to be
simultaneously married at Lafayette,
Ind. Their atfianced husbands came
to town on the morning of the day
set for the double wedding, and called
at the house. The mother went to
awaken the girls, and found the room
empty, their wardrobes gone, and a
letter saying that they had run away
to avoid matrimony. Two weeks later
they were found in St. Louis, sick
from continual drunkenness, and one
bruised by fight with a boon COM
panion. Their exploit is singular, as
they had been gently reared, and the
bridegrooms from whom they had fled
were of their own choosing.
