The love affair developed from the yery first acquaintance of the young people, progressed beauti- fully and was uuinterupted by parental influence, as Mr. Rouss is blind and Mrs. Rouss, it seems, suspected nothing more than cousiply affection. Finally Miss Virginia confided the secret to her mother and de- cjared ter determination to marry her young cousin, poor though he was. As mothers cn such occasions always forget they ever loved and married the men they loved, Mrs. Rouss insisted upen the match not being practical aud for- bade it. Then did the lovers defy the powers that be, and last Sunday morning drove toa quiet little church and were married. They announced che fact immes diately to the family, and after the usual “at home” attending such occasions, were forgiven, blessed and are happy in the lux- urious paternal home of Mr. Charles Broadway Kouss. nares Black Frauds. The Messeng>r files snow that it bas always insisted that the black Radical contingent would answer to the horn. They are absolute slaves of their white masters in the Seuth—the Radi- cal bosses and teat swingers. The news is that they will come up as One man and shout to the crack- ing of the whips of the white drivers. And that is so much like the ‘“niggers’—Russell’s “sav- ages.” They have an instinctive hatred of their best friends—the people who give them employ- ment snd who have taxed them- selves millions of dollars to build asylums for the negro insane and educate the children of the ne- groées who habitually antagonize them ana vote against them and their interests. The bosses have resorted to their old, scourdrelly game of 1868-7§, and have im- ported from ‘other States many thousand black rascals to yote and cheat.
