The GAZETTE is now the Oldest
paper in the State, and with few
exceptions the Oldest in the coup.
try, and its usefulness has been de.
monstrated and appreciated during
the NINETY ONE YEARS of its exist.
ence. In its columns has ALWAYS
been found a mirror of passing
events and the CAREFUL chronicling
of the history of what is going on
in the world has ever been its aim.
1t is always welcomed in the house
hold, while in the counting room
and work shop It has become in,
valuable.
The GAZETTE, situated as it is 50
close to Washington, the great cen.
tire of news, enjoys daily the bsne.
fit of the ASSOCIATED PRESS Dis.
PATCHES from every part Of the
world ; hence its patrons can read
from it's columns in the evening
what has transpired that day in ev-
cry portion Of the United States as
well as from every part of the hab.
table globe. Consequently it is
an everyday occurrence for the
GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals about
twelve or fifteen hours earlier than
the morning papers.
Correspondence from Washing.
ton, Richmond and every Sactlon Of
the State is published regularly
and all events of interest occurring
within the bounds of the Common.
wealth are to be found in the COL
umns of the GAZETTE.
The local department furnishes :
full and complete history of evarY.
thing that occurs in and near the
city, and this feature will, as ever,
receive careful attention.
Another feature that serves TO
make the GAZETTE a great desider-
alum with merchants is its after
noon market reports from all the
great centres of the country.
The GAzETTE's circulation in this
city is now larger than at any time
in its history and is steadily increas-
ing, especially among those who
consult its advertising columns be-
fore purchasing.

ELOPEMENr.

A special to the Times-Democrat,
from Sliden, Nov. ?. says:
Jacob Levy, son Of eminent jew
ish merchant of Vaudeville and Miss
Louisa Shulze. daughter Of the form
er clerk OF court Of St. Tammany,
drove into Slidell last evening and
were quietly married. It soon
leaked out that the young couple
had eloped from Vaudeville to es-
cape parental wrath. 1t appears
that serious objections had been
raised by the parents to the match,
so they concluded to run away.
The newly welded pair were enter
tanned BY Mr.. Sam Levy, a relative
Of the groom.

DEPLORABLE ACCIDENT.
ALDERMAN EMILE FREDER.
lex THROWN FROM HIS
HORSE AND SERIOUS
LY INJURED.

Last Monday afternoon Messrs
Emile and Adolph Frederick, Will,
out riding near Sulphur Springs
concluded to try the speed Of theil
horses and started along the road a
fuil gallop. As they reached . poin,
where . small oak tree stands q,
the side of the road, Emile's horse
suddenly darted between the tree
and the fence, dashing the rider
with terrible force against the tree
and throwing him to the ground in
. bleeding and mangled condition.
Assistance was quickly summoned,
when 1t was found that he was too
seriously injured to be moved to
his home, and his unconscious form
was gently conveyed to . cottage
near BY, at the entrance to the
Springs. d.. J. J. Meylor was
promptly on the scene and did all
that was possible for the relief of
the sufferer, and pronounced his in
juries Of very serious nature.
Tuesday DR.. Archinard, the emil
nent New Orleans sergeon, arrived
to assist DIR. Meylor. and they made
an examination, when it was found
that the base Of the skull was slight
" fractured, and other severe
bruises on his face, arms and hands.
In the meantime Emile has been un-
conscious and delirious. Wednes-
day night Drs. Archinard and Mey-
10y held another consultation, and
expressed some slight hope of his
recovery. He rested easy Thurs
day night, but with returning con-
sciousness he feels more keenly the
painfulDess of his injuries. As we
go to press (Friday afternoon) he
is doing as well as could be ex-
pected.
The sad news of the accident
spread rapidly through town and
country last Monday afternoon,
and hundreds flocked to the scene,
ready to render any assistance with
in their power, and the condition of
the unfortunate sufferer is the sub
ject Of constant inquiry ON all sides,
the universal hope being that he
viii soon take q turn for the better,
and ultimately fully recover from
bis terrible and painful injuries.

DISASTER AT SEA.
Wreck of the British steamer Roumalis
over Que Hundred Lives Lost.

Wreck of the British steamer Roumsl is
over Que Hundred Lives Lost.
LISBON, Oct. 29.-The British steamer
Roumania. of the Anchor line. was
wrecked at the mouth OF the Arelho
river, near Peniche. All the passengers
and crew, numbering 113, are drowned,
except nine.
Full particulars of the wreck have
not been received, the reports being
very meager. 1t appears. however, that
the steamer was caught in the recent
gale and after several days was driven
onto the reefs and went to pieces. The
Roumania had fifty-five passengers
aboard, together with crew number
sixty-seven- The nine persons saved
from the wreck have been given shelter
in hospital in the neighborhood-
The Roumania's captain and pilot are
among the lost. Large quantities of
wreckage are washing ashore all along
the neigh boring coast
The Roumania was an iron screw
steamship OF 3,3ST tons, belonging to
the Anchor line and plying between
Liverpool and Bombay She sailed from
Liverpool for Bombay on October D.
Her length was 364 feet, breadth IS feet
and depth 2S1z feet and she was built
at Glasgow in 1850. Penice, near where
the Roumania is reported to have been
wrecked is fortified town of Portugal
on the Atlantic ocean about fifty miles
north of the mouth OF the TaguS
