A marriage in extremis took place at Konigs,
berg on the 6th instant, under the following circuac6,
stances t---A widow, named Kirnheimscher, age 7
being on her death-bed, wished to bequeath the extensive
brewery of which she was mistress, and all her other Pre;
perty, to a young man who was her foreman, and to vibe;
long
and faithful services she chiefly attributed her pro.;
perity. Her lawyers had informed her that she could tint
defeat the claims of the collateral branches of her family'
and upon this, resolving to adopt the only mode of sons
veyance left, she married the object of her good will, an
diod in the evening of the same day.
The sudden departure of the eldest scion of a
noble house, and brother of two fair debutantes of last a;
son, is, we believe, intimately connected with an "argot
de cceur." We prophecy his Lordship will soon recover'
being full young to know his own mind,

On Wednesday and Thursday nights the severest
and most destructive frost we ever recollect at this period
of the year caused sad havoc in the gardens--the early
crops of kidney beans and pease were completely cut nu
and the potatoes, wall fruit, apples, and pears, much
"
jured, to the serious loss of the market gardeners; the %I
fruit trees are generally affected with blight and insects'
and will require much exertion and care to preserve then
from being materially injured. We believe few gardeners
can recollect the frost affecting the asparagus to the ellen'
experienced on Wednesday and Thursday nights.--
