At recent meeting of the Photo
graphic Society of Geneva, Switzerland,
Professor H. Fol presented paper on
resemblances in married couples. Ac-
cording to the British Journal of Pho
Biography, he stated that out of seventy
eight young couples autographed for the
purpose of his Investigations, he found
that in twenty-four cases the resem:
blance in the personal appearance of the
husband and wife was greater than that
of brother and sister, in thirty cases it
was equally great, and in only twenty
four was there a total of absence of re-
selnblance.

ddase for Congress in the Petersburg dis

has suspended his campaign TO come here
and have urgent business at republican
headquarters looks as If be 10 alarmed at the
circular OF General Malone advising the re-
puo!icans OF mis- district to defsat him, and
that he needs assistance badly and is here
TO seek it, ald that his boast has no real
foundation.
The impression here to-day on the sui act,
is that she mugwumps, preachers, sore head
democrats and republicans, combined, Will
defeat the democratic ticket in New YORK
city next Tuesday, and thereby make IL Inn
possible for any New Yorker to obtain The
nomination of the next national democratic
convention.
The news here to day from the Ssh con

that while the negro vote of that dis.ric
will be cast almost solidy Tor Mr.. Hume,
the detection in the democratic vote ID BY
