A Runaway Maxell ami What Came of Ji— The lir«(le Bound ?ul Locked Up. The Columbus (Ohio) Journal 01 a recent date sa3rs: "On Saturday, at 9 o'c'oclt A.M., Mr. Shad/ack Neel and Miss Sarah Evans were married at the house of J. H. Deming, Justice of the Peace in Franklin townfebip. Miss Evans is about twenty years of age, and Neel stated when he secured the license that he was over age. The license was issued by Judge Pugli on Neel making affidavit to this fact. M-ss Evans' parents were opposed to the match, and had ordered the young lady not to speak to the young man. The young lady showed her contempt for this order by going off with Neel on Saturday morning and becoming his wife. After the ceremony at Justice Demings, the newly married pair went to the house of Mr. Bradlord, Neel's stfep-fatlie-', at Nox'th Columbus, or near there. There they remained until Monday morning, when the two biotbeis of Miss .Evatts made a raid on the Bradford establishment, carried their, sister out of the house by main fo'ce, put her in the buggy, tied her hands and feet with the lines, and in spite of her cries nd struggles and the resistance of tbe women of the house, carried her back in triumph to her father's home. There he was kept until yesterday, locked in a room. Yesderday Mr. Neel made application for a writ of habeas co-pus, claiming that his wife was forcibly detained by her parents. The ^r-t was issued, served by the Sheriff, and yesterday evening the young lady was produced in Court. The marks we**e sti'l on tbe woman's arms where she had been tied, and there were other signs of rough treatment. She told me her story a little nervously, and with a defiant air said she went away from home.bqldly, and took, nothing but what belonged tof her. jAifterJieari ng the testimony of the different witnesses, Judge Pugh sustained the writ, discharged Mrs. Neel, and ruled that the deffeqdauts in the case, the Evanp," shpuld pay the cost of prosecution, as they were the first offenders in kidnapping another mans wife. Mr. Neel, the husband, was not in Court. The constable held a warrant for his arrest 011 a charge of perjury, and he had been warned off. M.-s. Neel WPS in the charge of Mr. Bradford, and on the decision of the Judge weo fc out of the room in his company. M=: Evans claims that Neel is a trifling fel'ow, and that this action has been animated by the wish to secure his daughter's welfare.
Origin of ilie Wig.
The dissipation of Henry III, of France, brought on disease by which lie lost his hair. He covered his dishonest head w'tlr a wig, and the courtiers and fops of Europe soon felt ashamed to be seen with their own natural growth of hair. This hot, unhealthy and unbecoming appendage to the human head continued in vogue till the French revolution, when it was swept a way. with othefexternai signs of aristocracy. But Tor a long time afterward it was deemed a mark of democratic vulgarity to appear on public occasions without a wig. A Prussian clergyman, who attempted to preach with his head uncovered, incurred such serious risks that the government was obliged to interfere fo£ his protection and a Spanish judge came very near losing his office by the same indiscretion. To this day judges and lawyers do not venture to show themselves in court till they have eovced their shapely heads with enormous wigs, frightful to look upon.—Lyclia

There was a reward offered at the time by interested parties of $800, and, we believe, an additional reward by the Governor.

Guerrillas representing both parties kept it so warm ia tbat forsaken region that it was dangerous to belong to either side. McGill had, ia trying to ride both horses, got several blackjackings from first the rebels and then the Yankees. As all guerrillas dressed alike, he made several mistakes i-i trying to pass for either Union or Southern, as he thought would suit the crowd. At last he was overtaken by a parly whose politics he could not even gue»ss at, aod the following dialogue ensued: "Sir, a»e you a Union man?" No, sir," responded McGill. '-Areyou a rebel* then?" "No, sir, I am not a rebel, either." "Then what in the devil's name are you?" roared the Captain.

We prepare for the defense of Paris. The deputies will co-operate with us. Let all good citizens help to prevent disorder. Those who wish it will have arms furnished them, and will be sent to the front at once."
The London Times ascribes the French disaster to the Emperors obstioacy in refusing to accept military adv ce, and to his illness.
The Times says: "Parties in France will make tbe Emperor pay penalty of his ill success. His name is already ignored in the acts by which the Regency seek to rally the people. Things arrange 'themselves as if be was not expected to resume his power as if testing how he may be dispensed with altogether. The only question is. who shall first utter the word abdication!
Edmund About writes from the field bitterly condemning the Emperor's mismanagement. He says: "Having directed war he let the Russians begin it. True, neither party was ready, yet the Freuch lost twenty days in useless marching and counter inarching. They were surprised at Weissenburg by an enemy when there were no videttesto watcb, no skirmishers to meet and 110 settled plan to repel.
