An Irregutar Marriage and its Extraor- dinary !sequel. A correspondent at Gilboa, in the Cats- kill Mountsens, gives the particulars of the recent tarring and feathering of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Cantine by a, party of eight masked men. Mrs. Canape is 13 years old -and her husband is 22. The woman says she left her first husband on account of his drunkenness, and that, being tooprior to get a divorce, she and Cantine went before Justice of the Peace Shafer and were sworn together. This proceeding scandalized the neighborhood, and the couple received fur- ther censure on account of the alleged attempt of Ca.ntine to levy blackmail ou Oscar Jackson, the village storekeeper, by charging him with trying to seduce Mrs. Cantine. The woman said to the correspondent : "At midnight last Wednesday we were awakened by the bursting in of the door. I saw a crowd of men coming into the kitchen. Some of their faces blackened ee of the men - them had masks on, aid Oall of them had struck -my husband in the face, and then four grabbed him by his arms and legs and pullled him out on the floor and stripped him. He kept saying, Boys, let me They threw him face down au the iloor, and held -him there while they put the tar and feathers on him. There were eight men in all. As soon -as the first four had pulled my husband out of bed the ether four seized me. Two of them held my arms (loam by my sides as I sat on the side of the bed. Only one men handled the tar, and so I had to sit on the edge of the bed andsee my hus- band ill-treated. There were pint, cups of ter. One cupful they used. on him and the other on me. A man with mittens on dipped the mitteus in the tar and spread: it all over My .husband's , body. When he had spread it,alleover him they put on feathers. When. they bad finished with my husband they carried bina to a corner of the kitchen, where two men held him down on the flo-or. Thee the ether six got around me. They put madcran en the floor, the earne as they. did him. The man with the mittens began by- putting tar -in my s face and eyes. - It made.my. eyes smart at first and blinded me.: Re then rubbed ear all over my body. He also -put .-tan.feathers.
