| An elopement ard marriage took place on
Saturday which wasa little out ofthe usual line
sufficiently so we imagine to satisfy the most
craving appetite for the novel and the disgusting
! both Of which we have-the latter in sufficient
quantity to turn any white stomach in eNs-
tcnce young girl named Sarah JudSon,
whose farther lives on fine property a mile or
two from Pontiac, eloped on Sunday and came
to Detroit. The partner Of her flight was a
black man, who has been in the employment Of
her father for some time i'll the capacity oftalm
hand. The first intmaion that the father had
Of the intention of The parties was conveyed by
the fact Of their flight. They Immediately cres-
Sed over to Windsor upon reaching this city,
] fully sensible that they never could accomplish
their unnatural designs on this side, as no ccr-
gyman could have been found who would have
so far transgresSed the bonds Of decency as to
unite the couple, the appearance ofthe girl be-
ING such as would forbid the union in the mind
of any sensible man, to say nothing OF the law
in the case. Some individual was found in Can
ada who performed the ceremony, however, and
the two were made one. They are now in
Windsor, enjoying the sweetest Of the honey
moon.


| The father OF the girl is a red hot abolitonst
Of the whole-hog or nothing, Niger as good-as
anybody style. For long Series Of years he
has disgusted his neighbors with his rantng on
abolition and amalgamation, of which he was
disposed to abate not a jot or title from its
utmost limit In order that he might not be
said to preach what he did not practice, he made
it point to treat the numerous coored indiyid-
uals whom he from time to time emp, Dyed, as
on par with his own family. These doctrines
he inculcated upon the understandings Of his
children, and he has the extreme satisfaction Of
witnessing, as the practical result of hissteach-
ings, his own daughter clasped in the embrace
of greasy niger, willing and ready. and even
enthusiastically reciprocal in the sweet game
of dalliance with which lovers @ delight to
celebrate their unions. The brothe' OF the girl
came on the next day, arriving here on Sunday
and, ascertaining their whereabouts, went to
her and imp!ored her to return. She was con-
tented, howevcr--oved her ebony hal:--was
happy in his arms, and could't think of going
back The emotions Of brother at such
sight can better be imagined than described


Some men would have blotted out their disgrace
with u single blow, bht he had been taught that
it was no sin against God or man that his young
sister should repose in the embrace Of a negro,
and at the same time calmly look him in the
face and say that she was contented. lilo went
home as he had come, alone.


The girl is about IS years old. The family
are said to have occupied position in society
which was first class, and the blow is conse-
quently terrible one. The father is rich, and
the girl an heiress, which makes it very nice
for sltho African Of her choice. The matter has
caused an intense excitement in the neighbor-
hood where the parties are well known. the girl
having been born and brought up where her
parents reside. 1t is difficult to imagine any
train of circumstances by which young girl
could be brought to form connection SO re-
pugnant to all the senses yet the fact exists
A more complete retributon for the crime Of
ianatacsm we never heard of. The least we can
wish is that the father, undoubtedly we'll Gu
red Of his beliefs by this time, may be able to
save his young daughters from the terrible future
which now opens to her Detroit Adaa9i$e,s
