VIENNA ROMANCE.
A Real Life incident that Gree
ated u Great Sensation in
High society.

Some years ago, at Prague. Monsieur
D married a lady Of high rank
and great beauty. Contrary to the
expectations OF all who knew the par
ties to it. the marriage did not turn
out happily. Within a few months Of
its celebration M. D. deserted his
wife, who since that event, has led a
quiet and secluded life in one Of the
suburbs of Vienna, under an assumed
name and in the character Of a widow.
Now it happened that a young lady,
more remarkable for her personal at
fractions ever than Madam D.,
occupied apartments in the same
house Naturally enough they struck
mp an acquaintance, which soon
ripened into intimacy. Misfortune
OF which each had her share-exerted
its proverbial influence in drawing the
ladies more closely together and rivet-
ing their mutual regard. Very
soon they had no secrets
for each other, and Madam
D became the recipient of all
her young friends condolences. Chief
among them was the fact that a gen.
tleman in the prime Of life was paying
his addresses to her with a view to
marriage Congratulating her friend,
but at the same time warning her to
be upon her guard, Madame D
expressed a wish to be introduced 10
the young lady's sutton. Judge OF her
feelings when, on his presenting him
self, he turned out to be Der own
husband. The shock was so over
whelming that Madame D. poison
ed herself. Her husband learned the
sad news from a note, in which she
informed him that, rather than be an
obstacle to Ihis marriage with Mile.
-, she had resolved to commit
suicide, and which concluded with
the expression Of hope that he would
render her friend happier than he had
rendered her. Madame D. roman.
, tic self-sacrifce, however, was entirely
thrown away; for, on becoming &C
} quainted with the facts, Mile. -
summarily dismissed her lover, WIT
has since disappeared. It's generally
believed that he has followed hi
, wife's example and made away Will
9 himself.

CAPITAI.
One Hundred Thousand Dollars
Invested in ArlkRnsaW Lands.


The train from Texas last evening
brought to our city two very important
~personages. Possibly they are un-
known to the majority of III readers,
but, nevertheless, they have invested
upward Of 500, 900 in Arkansaw land.
One .of the gentlemen is Benjamin
Newgass,
A WEALTHY CITIZEN OF LIVERPOOL,
and his companion, Mr. B. Beer, is an
influential citizen of New Orleans.
We understand they are to remain
with us several days, but whether
their stay be long or short the Gazette,
on behalf Of Its thousands of readers,
gives them a most cordial welcome.
Mr.. Newgass, report says. wal a poor
boy twenty years ago. To-day he Is

most successful cotton operators Of
Liverpool, and in bis ArkaHsaw ven
TURF. represents one Of the Weslthiest
syndioates Of Europe. He is
shrewd aud far seeing, and a few
months since when his New Orleans
agents suggested the propriety Of
INVESTING IN COTTON LANDS,
he at once realized the virtue Of the
scheme, and through Altheimer &
Bro, of Pine Bluff, they selected Ar
kansaw in preference to all the Other
States in the cotton belt. This, in .
great measure, if not entirely, is due
to the fine quality and long staples o
Arkansaw cottons, The Pine Bluff
gentlemen we're made the Arkansav
agents for the syndicate, and Coin .
