SINUOUS SWEETS.

A Bad Case of Croa Cupid from sa m Montreal. SPOONEY KANNUCKS. IKE BELLS OF MONTREAL AND A TOSET YOUNO ENGLISHMAN WITH KAVISHIXQ MUTTON CHOP WHISKERS IDULGE IN CROOKED LOVE A LAMENTABLE CASE. The New York Herald of Sunday says: A genuine sensation of the kind most eagerly devoured by all classes of both s?x "3 WBS created throughout the entire city last eVteg by the announcement in the afternoon ' tbo elopement from Montreal and a?11 In lhi9 city ol the wire of Mr. Henry aiacKenzIei a prominent and widely known sbip-own?r tod millionaire of MontresT, with Frederick II. Bridges", a dashing younti English blood. There 13 in this little morsel of domes; ic scandal all tbe.'ngrt dients of a first class romance, although ft is u'oubtful if Ue deserted husband considers tte escapadb as a very romantic affair. The lady 3 young, baautiful, comely of person and wealthy, and comes from the creme de la crVm8 ' Montreal's most aristocratic circles. Äir Bridges is also young, wealry tiaveled and. withal. dabirj&. Early in the autumn months of last year Frederick H. Bridges arrived in the Canadian metropolis Irom Eurof e. Coming from a good family in England, ha experi enced no difficulty in gaining access to Montreal's aristocratic coterie, and at once became a lion with the fair sex. Among scores of others he was introduced into the lamily of Mr. Mackenzie, and at once be came enamored of the manifold chrrms of the mistress of the house. His leeling was ardently reciprocated, and ere the flight ot many weeks clandestine meetings between the TWO PANTING YOUNO HEARTS wa3 of almost daily occurrence. Mrs. Mackenzie, although but twenty-three years or age, is the mother of four chubby little Mackenzles, and therefore certainly thould have known better. But she didn't, or, if she did, was careless as to the consequences. At list the guilty loves of this erring pair became so ardent that Montreal's " pent up Utica " was quite too circumscribed for them, so they determined to seek new fields. Ac cord in sly an opportunity for flight was impatiently awaited. Taking advantage of her husband's temporary absence from the city, Mrs. Mackenzie packed up her taggage, and, with her two youngest children, joined her festive Don Juan in a trip to the states. It was on Monday last that they bade adieu to their Montreal homes. A rids of a few hours brought them to St. Albans, where, having passed beyond the dreaded jurisdiction of Canadian Justice, a bait was effected. Amid the prosaic- surroundings of this little New England town the lovers licgeredthree days while, if not all the world, certainly all Montreal wondered. Rumors of the arrival of a brace of Montreal detectives interrupted the billing and cooing of the fugitiveo,and in haste tbey boarded a southern bound train and sped away for New York. By this time, however, meeds ol the parties In Mon treal had succeeded in ascertaining their whereabouts, and a message was telegraphed to Superintendent Walling requesting their arrest. The message was signed W. H. Penton, chief of police, and reached the central otfice, in Mulberry street, at 3 o'clock J: rid ay morning. Through the iDadvert ance of some of the clerks Mr. Walling did not receive it until 8 o'clock, just one hour liter than the arrival at tte Grand Central depot of the train bearing the errant lovers. Detectives Rs'.ly and Williamson were detailed to find the truant., and a difficult task they bad, for no one seemed to know whither the party had FLOWN AFTER ALTQHTING FROMC THE TRAIN. At last, however, the officers traced them to the Fifth Avenue Hotel, where, greatly to the consternation of the false wife, both were arrested. They had registered as Mr. and Mrs. Henderson, of Philadelphia. A carriage was called and, without any unnecessary commotion, the entire party, Including the two children, were driven to police headquarters. It was now nearly 5 o'clock, and as the police courts were all closed. Superintendent Walling considered himself justified in detaining the runaways until morning. Comfortable quarters were provided for tbe lady and her children, but the gay Lothario was left to the contemplations of the Inner decorations of a cell. This sort of thing wai somewhat unromantic, but our hero borehimsslf with becoming stoicism. He sent for Mr. William F. Howe to come and extricate himself and "traveling companion" from their perplexity. At eight o'clock yesterday morning the lawyer appeared at tte cell door, and after a Eomewhat protracted conference the pris-cers and counsel were driven In a close carriage to the Tombs Police Court. Here they were shown into the judge's private room, the children, however, being left in the carriage. Aftor a disposition ol the cases of the more vulgar class effdnders Justice Bixby calkd Mr. Bridges before the dock. The detectives who had made the arrest stated the facts, whereupon the magistrate promptly discharged tbe prisoners, remarking that there was no criminal charge against them. The lady was escorted in the most gallant manner possible to the' carriage by young Bridges, and with a kiss ot tbe band tbe fair prisoner that was disappeared in the direction ol Broadway and proceeded directly to the Windsor. Before leaving the court the party was Joined by Mrs. Mackenzie's brother and brother-in-law, both ot whom nsed their utmost endeavors to persuade the erring fair one to return to her grief-stricken and heartbroken husband and children, but to no avail. SHE WOULD "NEVER LEAVE HER DEAR FREDERICK," she said, and as for returning to Montreal why, she could not for a moment entertain the proposition. Bridges went to the Hoffman house, where he registered as F. H. Brydges, of Philadelphia. At 8 o'clock last evening he took a carriage and drove to the Windsor, where he again Joined his love and her lambs. Here he purchased tickets to Philadelphia, and as be lovingly handed his Venus and the little ones aboard a sleeping coach attached to the 9:20 train Irom Jersey City he presented a genuine fatherly appearance. Nina Mackenzie, for that is tbe heroine's name, Is the niüce of Sir Hugh Allen, president of the Bank of Montreal, and heavily Interested in railroad enterpiiws. She is a brunette, decidedly handsome ' and engaging in her appearance and manners, and bears every evidence of good breeding. She was very richly, but by no means gaudily attired, wearing a long black silk cloak lined with ermine, a black velvet bono et, and carried a sable muff. Frederick H. Bridges is 23 years of age. He has a very florid complexion, chestnut hair and mustache and side whiskers very light of the blonde type. He evidently has plenty ol nerve, and declares that he will not give up his prize come what may. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. The World closes its notice of the affair as follows: From a private source the following information In regard to the eloping couple was obtained: Mrs. Mackenzie as Miss Allen married Mr. Mackenzie five

years ago, and is the mother of four children, the two youngest having been leit by hr at fivntral A a Kf lau AUnn Rhu WM the

telle of Montreal, and her accompllsh-1 menU and beauty attracted many suitors, but her cnoics in Mr. Mackenzie appeared to be dictated by affection and their marriage had not a cloud till the elopement. Mr. Brydge is the son of Mr. C. J. Brydges, ex-managing director of the Grand Trunk raUroad of Canada, and now general superintendent of government railroads, commissioner of intercolonial railroads and justice of the peace. Mr. Brydges, who w?s considered a good match In Montreal, was acquainted with Mrs. Mackenzie's family and visited Mrs. Mackenzie frequently, and an entanglement resulted between them. At Mrs. Mackenzie' suggestion Brydges went to St. Albans, Vt., and Mrs. Mackenzie made her preparations, and before getting on the train at Montreal telegraphed to Brydges to join her. Brydges boarded the train at St. Albans, and from tbattime to the time ol their arrest at the Filth Avenue Hotel they passed as Mr. aud Mrs. Henderson. LATER REPORTS. MRS. MACKENZIE'S SECOND ELOPEMENT WITH MR. J. H. BRYDGES ARRIVAL OF MR. AND MRS. ALLAN AND THE FAMILY LAWIER IN NEW YORK. The World of Monday gives the following additional details of the Kanuck romance: Sa turday night Mrs. Mackenzie, of Montreal eluded the vigilance of her relations and lla, ior parts unknown with Mr. John H Bryde3 Mackenzie is the wild of Mr. W. E. Mucket zie, junior partner In the firm of John G. Mackenzie & Co., well known thioughovt the. Dominion, and a resident ol No. 911 S'herbrooke street, Montreal. Mr. Banyon, who was described as her brother-in-law, is her cousin, having married tbe daughter of Sir Hugh Allan, brother of Andrew Allan, of Iononteb, and 103 McTavUh street, Montreal, the father of tbe infatuated lady. When Mrs. Mackenzie left Montreal she abandoned a baby a few months old that Bbe was nursing. On leaving the Tombs Police Court Saturday morniDg, Mrs. Mackenzie, who protested that nothing criminal had occurred between her and Mr. Brydges, reiterated a promise that she had made before Superintendent Walling that she would return home, and her manner was that of a thoroughly penitent person. Her brother and cousin accompanied her to tbe Windsor Hotel, and, as a matter of precaution, engaged for her a suit ol rooms adjoining their own. Saturday afternoon Mrs. Mackenzie, in a conversation with her lelatives, expressed a doubt as to her ever seeing Montreal again, and said that her happiness was centered in the man she ran away with. She was told that her father and mother and tbe family lawyer would arrive yesterday, and appeared willing to meet them. Early In the evening SHE SAW HER TWO LITTLE GIRLS PUT TO BED, and behaved In such an affectionate manner that Messrs. Allan and Benyon anticipated tba she would yield to the wishes of her father and mother when they arrived. About 7 o'clock Mr. Benyon and Mr. Allan went down stairs to transact some business. Meanwhile Mr. Brydges planned a second elopement. He led the detectives who arrested him to believe that he was going back to Montreal via St. Albans by the 4 p. M. train, and the officer on duty at the Grand Central Depot avers that when the train started nly 'one ticket was sold for Montreal, and that the purchaser answered Mr. Brydges's description. Instead of going to Montreal Mr. Brydges registered at the Hoffman House as J. H. Bridges, of Phcenixville. As soon a her relatives went down stairs Mrs. Mackenzie was Keen by the hall boy to leave the hotel hurriedly by the southern entrance. She ongaged a hack, drove to the Hoffman Uous and ten minutes later Mr. Bridge's bßgir ge was transferred to the vehicle and taev were driven away, and all trace of them has since been Ics'.. Y ben Mr. Benyon and Mr. Allan returned to their rooms they heard one of the little girls crying in Mrs. Mackenzie's apartment, and, suspestirg something wrong, entered the room, and discovered her flight. Messengers were summoned. and Superintendent Walling and Detective Phil Keilly were apprised ol wcat had oc curred, but could do nothing, as MRS. MACKENZIE FLED IN HER OWN PER SONAL APPAREL, and there was no excuse for telegraphing for the arrest of Brydges on any technical charge. At 12:30 p. at. yesterday Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Allan, parents cf Mrs. Mackenzie, arrived at the Grand Central Depot. They were accompanied by their family law yer, the non.J.J. C. Abbott, Q. C, M. P., H. B. M.'s Commissioner for Ontario, and a member or the firm of Abbott. Tail. Wother spoon & Abbott. Mr. and Mrs. Allan were much affected by the news of their daueh ter's second elopement, and at their urgent request were assigned apartment No. 112 at the Windsor Hotel. Yesterday Superln tendent Walling received a telegram ad dressed to Mr. J. 11. Brjdges by his father, Mr. C. J. Brydges, and marked urgent aid to the care of tbe en perlntendent. Mr. Walling holds tho dispatch, and expects the ar rival ol ilr. Brydges, sr., and Mr. W. E. Mackenzie by the 7 A, m. train to-day. THE DOORKEEPER'S APPOINTMENTS. A TESTIMONY FROM TBE DAYTON SOLDIERS' HOME. So much has been said by the republican press upon the subject ot the appointment to euboidlnate positions of confederate soldiers by the doorkeeper of the national House, that the following, relating to the only two appointments made by him on his own account, will prove interesting: National Military Home, Dayton, O., Dec. 12, 1875.

A RATLWA . CATASTROPHE CIN NATL AT CIN"TERIorSLY WEAKENS, AN IRQ BRIDGE Ml AND S ENQINK AND 3WB FREIGHT CARS GO DOWN ENGINEER. FIREMAN AND BRAKEMAN KILLED FL'LL RTICTJLARS OF TEE MELANCHOLY 0CCU-BRNCJ The Cincinnati CCZRme.'cIal of Sunday gives tie dreadful details of te rH'0d accident at Spring Grove, in tbe suburbs of that cit;, Saturday night: Secvlou 3 of freight irain No. 109, on the MarieU rail" road, loided with shelled corn for Locust Point, Maryland, and carrying twenty car.' includiig tbe caboose, left this city about noon yesterday, with conductor Joseph A. Morton,Frank Lemmon, fireman; John Conley,engin6er, and Koffman Hexter forward bnkeman. The crew leaving Cincinnati ineharge of the train were to run as far as Cl lllcothe, where another ßetof employes vere to take the train and run through to Parkersburg, where a transfer was to bmade to another crew. But the crew andtraln were fated not to reach their destlnattn. In less than an hour alter leaving Qe depot In thia city the engineer, brakem and fireman were killed. At about bar past 12 the train reacted tte iron bridge aooss Spring Grove avenue, and was crossing. It is thought that the engine had just reachd the east eide of the bridge, on terra firm, when tbe bridge went down, carrying with it all the cars that were on It aud drijging back tho engine, engineer and firman into the common ruin, and coviring them with the debris ot Bpiintrs, corn, Iron, timbers, etc. ONE CAR TOLL0WED ANOTHER INTO THE I HOLE until thMvenue was entirely choked up from one abutment of tLe bridge to the other witli toppling cars, Fpilled corn, and bridge tinkers and iron in all shapes, and twisted lie ribbons. On tbe end of the lower abutoent a car hung as if poised on a pivot, rtody to fall ; but it did not fall, and people k ere cautioned not to go near it, lest thejfchould meet with an accident. A message vas instantly dispatched to the Cumminsvle engine house for help, as the cars were u fire from the furnace in the locomotive and it looked as though tbe poor men turled beneath the ruins, if not already deal, would be consumed bv a slow fire. The firemen responded with the Champion ! Extinguisher, and soon put out the games. Then the citizsns. v-ith the ; help of the few railtuad men pesent, went to work with a will to rescue thenglneer, fireman and iorward brakeman, ,who were covered with the debris. Thebrakemac. seeing the cars going down, attenpted to jump, but was caught by the beavi iron bridge beams and pinned to the grouid in tbe back in the middle of the avenue, When found he was dead, black in tb face, and blood was spouting Irom his nmt.ils. His death must have been lnstananecüs. But the poor engineer was jet alivi when discovered, a few minutes after tb) accident. His body was half exposed, andlaid on the engine. The other half of his lody was covered with bridge iron, railrotd iron, ties, corn, coal and splinters iron THE RECK OF BROKEN CARS, nine of whicl bad gone into the hole, while eleven remaned on the track west of the bridge. The dying engineer pleaded "for Gok'a sake" b take him out, to pull him out any waj, bo he was gotten out, but there was no hip for him, and he must wait the slow pressof being dug out. When he was takta out he was deud. The bjdy was carried back ar.1 p-.it In the cibooso on th main track. The body of the fcrsLktman wa next taken out, and also put la the ciboc, and last of all came the poor fire mm 'a body, which was s?alded by iteam Irom tto boiler. It was found buried uc ler the tank, acd preseutel a horrible appearance. The face was clstortei, as though the unfortunate victim oad diod in great agony. His body was als placed in the caboose. By this time Conner Maley, who had been summoned bt telegraph as soon as the accident occurrel, arrived, and be ordered the bodies sent totne city, where an inquest win be held There were also lour boys stealing a ridejn the train between the cars, from fifteen to eighteen years of age. Two of them were hurt one of then suffered a dislocation ol .he left arm at the shoulder. and the other sad a bad cut in the back ot bis Lead, besides being severely bruised. T'je other two SEEING TEE IMPENDING DANGER, jumped off beftre they reached the bridge, and thus escaped injury. The two that were hurt were carried into the residence of Mr. Watscn, neir the bridge, and were attended ty Dr. Rowe. Our reporter called to see them, when tbe four gave their names as Wm. Barke and Samuel Malott (tbe two who were hurt), Thomas Henry D?gan and Thomas Jenkini. Tbey said they were only taking a ride as far as tbe junction at Lud low Grove. Burke and Malott were after wards sent to tte hospital in the wagon which cad been sent for that purpose. Malott, who is tte most seriously hurt, it is thought, will recover, lbere were sev erar theories advanced as to tbe cause ot the disaster which has resulted in such fatality and destruction. One, put Iorward by a railroad man, is that the bridge had been tampered with by some .one, out of ; malice toward tbe company, by the loosening of a nut or bolt at the loop in tbe middle of the bridge, at the bottom of the stringers. The bridge had been built about three years, and any number of heavy trains had passed over it without affecting it in any degree. About two years ago the south hall of the bridge was broken down by a Dayton Short Line passenger train running into a construction train on the bridge, but no lives were lost. Tbe engineer of tbe passenger train, seeing tbe danger, j umped before the train reached the bridge, thus saving bis life, but THE ENGINE WENT INTO THE CHASM. The bridge was regarded one of the strongest in the country. It was put up by the Phoenix Iron Company, of Philadelphia, and was ca'culated to hold all the weight that could be piled upon it. There is another theory, that the stringers were to short, resting on the abutment", and that if they had been made two or three feet longer at each end, the accident would not have occurred. This theory will hardly hold good, as tbe bridge had been in use for some time and had stood almost any amount of weight. Two watchmen bave been employed by the railroad company lor some time to keep an eye on tbe bridge, and it would seem hardly possible for any one to tamper with the bolts and nuts if the watchmen attended to their business strictly. An Investigation of a rigid character into the cause of the disaster would seem to be in order. The engineer, Conley, who was killed yesterday, was single, about twenty-three years of age, and lived in Cbillicothe. Lemmon also lived in Cbillicothe, was about thirty-three years old, was married, and leaves a wife and lour children. Ilexter was about thirty, five years of age. was married, and boarded, Lwith his wife and mother-in-law, at Mrs. Bevls's No. üö west x inn street, ue was-a man of steady, temperate habits, an old railroad man, but had recently come on this road.

""Jia.i i iu la AKRIAGE TO THE t,lua"SS OF COMMODORE MEADE THE FIRST TESTIMONY THIT tta xr.rw PRISONER EQULRM. The Brldgeton correspondent of the New York San of Wednesday say: Francis P. Crocker, editor of the VIneland Weekly, testified this morning in rebuttal of the testimony for Landi, that the prisoner had contributed articles to the Weekly. He identified a description of Landis' marriage furnished in 1S68, and to which Lindls signed bis name. The defense struggled in vain to prevent the article being put in evidence. The witness admitted, with much evasion, be bad no doubt Landis was tbe author of the article. The description opened with the words of Othello to the f'Moet Potent. Grave, and Reverend Seniors: That I have taken away this old man's daughter," and went on to describe the difficulties which bef-et him at every step in bis efforts to make Commodore Meade's daughter bis wile. The commodore, who was JlTlng in Brooklyn, refused to receive Landis &ä his son-in-law because ot bis religion, he belrg a Protestant, his social standing and bis age. With regard to the last objection Landis, who was only thirty-four years old, did not know whether he was too young or tco old. He consulted Father Franciola, who ministered to the Meade family, and obtained his sanction, as well as tbe approval of all the young lady's relations except her father. Landis was warned that tbe commodore . HAD DECIDED TO BLOW HIS BRAINS OUT. A day was nevertheless named for the marriage, but when Landis went to Brooklyn he ascertained that his future father-in-law had been sant to the Bloomingdale Asylum for the Insane. The marriage ceremony was performed and Landis took his wife to Yineland . He averred that his chief motive in writing the article to the Yineland Weekly was to relute tbe malicious report that he had been instrumental in having tbe old commodore confined in the asylum for the icBane in order to sweep away the only obstacle to his marriage with his daughter. The article closed with a profusion of pious tbanks for his success in securing Miss Meade for his wife and an avowed determina tion to devote his life to make her happy. While the attorney general read the article slowly and with emphasis, unsparingly lending all the force possible to tbe points be deemed most Important, Landis s agitation was painful to see. His face, hitherto ashy pale, flushed hotly, his dull eyes flashed and occasionally fastened fiercely upon the attorney general, his long, thin fingers twined about each other w'th irrepressible emotion, and lor once, at least, in the course of the trial he was thoroughly aroused from his apathy and indiflerence. His sister and other friends watched Lim closely and anxiously, evidently apprehensive of a violent outbreak. He mastered his emotion, however, and listened with comparative calmness to the reading of an agricultural article written by himself for the Vineland Weekly, and evincing a very thorough knowledge ot the subject. As the examination of Mr. Crocker promised to be protracted, he was a'lowed to stand aside, and Lewis W. Brown, who attended Mr. Carruth in bis illness, testified that the wound was treated correctly. He did not notice SYMPTOMS OF ABSCESSES ON THE BRAIN. The patient told him that Dre. Bidwell and Ingraham had recommended opening the abscess on tte back of the neck, but added that he thought tbeir advice did not amount to much-Carruth was averse to having any operation performed, but taid if it had to be done he wished Dr. Brown to do it. The witness thought it unnecessary, and soon afterward the abscess began to discharge itself. Under cross-examination the witness said he saw Dr. Morgan probe tbe wound and failed to find the passage Dr. Fuller had spoken of. Dr. Fuller then took the probe, turned it a little to tbe right and parsed it on. The witness heard Carruth complain of being butchered by the surgeons. The wound did not cease to discbarge until about a month previous to Carruth's death. The discharge from the orifice was connected with the abscess on the back ol the neck, and tbe latter quickly decreased In s Z3 after it began to discharge and was nearly well when Mr. Carruth died. Professor Joshua K. Thomas, a Lomeopatnist and demonstrator ot anatomy in Hahnemann College, Pbiladelhhia, was called by the attorney-general, and he testi fied that the exposure of the orifice by tbe removal ot tbe skull would not show the protruding abscess. There was nothing observable after the removal of the skull to indicate that tbe protrusion was caused by an abscess. There were, however, four ab scesses on Carruth's brain, and had a sharp instrument been passed through the orifice it would bave punctured first the dura mater, then to the brain substance, and last the wall ol the abscess. From the external APPEARANCE OF CARRUTH'S WOUND it could not have been determined that an abscess had formed on the brain. It would have been improper lor a surgeon to have attempted to puncture tbe abscess unless he had positive knowledge of its situation. This knowledge, the witness thought, It, was impossible to obtain in Carruth's case. Successful opening of abscesses of the brain were very rare, and the chances of saving life by such an operation were exceedingly small. It had been performed some years ago in New York, under more than ordinarily favorable circumstances, and resulted merely In a prolongation of the patient's life lor seven weeks.

Recoveries from such injuries were so rare that no record bad been kept ol them. He attended Mr. Carruth, and was convinced that the surgical treatment was correct. Certainly the brain was not in any way injured, nor was death caused or hastened by the probing. It would have been very bad surgery not to probe for tbe ball.
