will occur tomorrow. A little before
noon the steamer Murchison, which was
to have gore down the river to-day,
held back at the request of Colonel
Green, another boat taking her place.
She will carry the brid Il party to Wit
mington tomorrow. Men have been
busy all day preparing the boat for the
distinguished visitors. The state room
that the Judge and his wife will occcu-
| DIV, and the ladies' cabin and dining
room are trimmed with holly, and the
| whole b rat has been scrubbed up and
put in good order-the towns-people
| taking more interest IN the matter than
in anything else that has happened since
| Sherman's army arrived here, eighteen
years ago. The bride is a lady about
thlrty-six years Of age; weighs l40 or
| $50 pounds, and is we'll proportioned;
| dark complexioned, though not beauti-
full. She would everywhere be noticed
as handsome. She is overlooking with
| kind-heartedness. Her most salient
characteristics are dislike OF ostenta.
| ton and eagerness to be of ser
vice to every one in sickness
and trouble. Her father. Captain Burr,
was sea captain. He went west and
settled in Bloomington, H., where he
lives, almost across the street from his
son-in-law. Miss Burr lived as the
adopted daughter of Colonel Green Of
this city, whose wife is 4 sister OF Cap
tain Burr. Miss Burr was visiting her
parents during the illness of the first
Mrs. Davis and by her kind attentions
to the invalid endeared berselt to Mrs.
Davis and the Judge.
\ Fayette On. CO. special says: After
the marriage, ex-senator and Mrs
Davis. with Judge Otto, Congressman
Green and daughter, left on a special
steamer and passed down Cape Fear
river to Wilmington, whence they 90
to Southern cities, and thence to Cali
fornia, and after short stay there to
their home in Bloomington.

TROY, March BIT is discovered
that Emmett O'Neii, the Schenectady
broker who recently failed, has fed.
He victinized parties in Schenectady
and Duanesburg to an extent Of rot
less than S250,O00. Having the hand
ling Of his fathers estate he was pre-
sumably wealthy, and was elected a
Director OF the Schenectady Bank.
From the books Of the bank IL was
learned that many farmers Of Duanes-
|, l. 81,
tanned possession of the money by plaus-
ible representations, and gave forged
mortgages as security. When further
proof was asked. even forged assign
ments of mortgages, including the
County Clerks certificate aud a copy OF
the record. were supplied by him. The
widow, the orphan and the industrious
poor are alike his victims with the
wealthy losers. Every p-rsonin Duanes-
burg was swind.ed. His mother and
sisters are left penuiiess. Before leav.
ing Schenectady on the midnight train,
O'Neii, taking a 500 greenback in his
hand, went around asking char g. No
one could change it, and he borrowed n
few dollars from each storekeeper.
O'Neil went to New York. where, It Is
sad, ne made an unsuccessful attempt
to raise So, 900 on forged securities. 1t
is believed he has gone to Europe. His
wife, two daughters and son are still in
Schenectady.

New YORK, March l4-Rumors of
Jay Gould's ili.health cause much spec
ulation in regard to what t fl sct his sud
den death would have on the stock
market. He is such heavy holder OF
certain leading securities, which now
bolster up the general list, that posi-
biliJy of their passing into other hands
N .kes the brokers tremble at the mere
anticipation. Goald has been a per.
sistent bull since the recent depression
set IN and has frequs ntiv been COM
