was married to Miss O'5hea this morning,
and that he and his bride started for Paris
unknown Immediately after the marriage
at Steyning. The registrar of that place,
together with the books used TO record the
marriages, has apparently vanished. IL ia
beloved that the registrar has been bribed
TO hide himself and to keep the books con-
cealed for the present.

to the ceremony were two servants from
Mrs. O'shea's house at Walsingham ter
race, Brighton. Tee registrar was
strictly en1oined not to give any
Information about the marriage, and
he promised to preserve the closest
secrecy in regard to the matter. Mr.. Par
nell had passed the previous evening at
Walsingham Terrace. An order was given
TO have solitary one-horse phaeton In
