Still Missing.

Morosinis daughter and Smelling, alias
H~ulskamp, the coachman, with which she
eloped. At the saloon ofSchelling's step
father it was said TO-DAY that a letter had
been received from the bride this morn
ing, and that she and her husband would
soon return to live in this city. The
couple were well and happy.
The story OF the el pment as told by
the New York Journal is as follows:
Miss Victoria Morosini is about 25 years
old. She is very handsome, far more
beautiful than the young ladies generally
described as such. She is of medium
height, rounded figure, has blond hair
and fair complexion, clear and rosy.
She has always been a favorite in society,
her fathers standing giving her entree
into the best.
Ernest Schelling Is % years of age.
He is Of German descent and not at all
bad looking. He is slim, has dark brown
hair, and small, neatly trimmed side
whiskers OF the same color, Schelling
has the ability to make himself agreeable
to both sexes. and he gave perfect salts
faction to Mr.. Morosini, until that gentle
man, hearing from neighbor tina. the
coachman was rather too assiduous in his
attentions to Victoria, discharged him two
or three weeks ago.
But the matter had gone to far to be
broken off by such treatment Schelling
had made too good use of his time when
driving through the beautiful lanes of
Westchester, and the young lady had be-
come infatuated by his pleasant converse
ton and all too evident love for her.
While Mr.. Morosiui dismissed the
matter from his mind as readily as he
dismissed Schelling, the coachman and
Miss Morosini kept up the clandestine
meetings, which ended in an elopement.
Shortly after dinner Miss Victoria put
on her hat to take a stroll in the splendid
garden, as her relatives thought, but in
reality to meet Schelling, who she knew
would be near, When she passed out
of the door, she passed from the sight of
those who loved her best. Not returning
after a heightened season. the household
became alarmed, and the alarm soon
spread to the outside.
The town of Yonkers was secured, but
all believed the runaway pair had gone to
New York, and the Chief of Police sent
an alarm to the Metropolitan headquar-
ters- Thence the news was .elenhoned to
the various precincts aud by midnight
nearly every policeman in New York was
peering into the face of passing couples.
Among the best known faces and forms
on Wall street is daily seen that of Signor
Morosini. He bears a handsome face aud
magnificent physique.
OfMr. Morosini's romantic life enough
could be written to Fill a volume. This
dark-eyed, gray-haired gentleman tas ed
all the ups and downs of fortune before
the golden realization he at present en-
joys was his, He was the bosom friend
of Giuseppe Garabaldi, and stood leside
that daring soldier when all Europe
seemed ranged against him.
He fought at Rome with him. He
sailed the seas over, and with Garibaldi
settled down on Staten Island. Shortly
after he caught the eye of Jay Gould, and
from a clerkship in his office, by Il mag
nifcent loyalty to his daring master, won
the %latter's affections.
He was his protector physically, and
the repository of his rarely bestowed con-
fdence. Gould rewarded this fidelity, so
seldom found in the neighborhood OF
Wall street. For years the diminutive
form of Gould was coupled in the eye of
people down town" with that of the
swarthy and stalwart Morosini. Courte-
Gus, generous and refined in his ia stes,
Mr.. Morosini has made hundreds Of
friends. He loves music, and, indeed, all
the arts, and no expense has been too
: great if it brought comfort, elegance and
luxury to the family circle in which, when
business hours were past, he so loved tc
embosom himself.
Suave as he is, however, his temper is
