RemacRsBSs Pre1sltimea.-.One of thc mnr- riod ladies of Charleston who einDaEkea In si,e 6,sed Home steamer, and who had passed ,Ee snmn1er in inc north, resided for seyeral months previous to her departure with rel ntive in this city. On several occasions, vvhile sitting alone in her room, she related to n number of persons in the family, and to friends who visited her, that she could not ac- count for the remarkable apparitions that al- most daily were conjured up before her. Though at work in her chair and awake, she would constantly have her feelings wrought up almost to mysteries by the sight of some dreadful shipwreck. the parting of the vessel into fragments, and the drowning of crowds of people, principally her family and friends, engulfed in the angry pillows. would seem by the rlarrations which have been made to us, that though little dreaming then that she was to come to the awful realization of her horrid imaginings, she foreSaw with prophetic exactness all the details of that dreadful event which has drawn forth the sympathy from every American bosom She freuuently asked her friends what these vl- sions could be: and what is so extraordinary is. that they came to her in open day, and when she was perfectly awake and in the best cfhealth! A few weeks after the new steam nr Home began to be talked of, and immedi- atelv. as if by some fatal impulse, she per- sisted with her husband that this should be the vessel she would go home in. The name seemed to possess a charm in itself, that ln- vited those who were preparing to escape our winter for the balmier skies of their own South. Her husband had resolved to defer his return to later period, but it was to no purpose. The lamented wife seemed bent on her first resolution, and thus perished the whole of this interesting family.
 From the earliest times, the truth of such narrations of prescience. or foresight have been impressed upon the belief of the least credulors and superstitious minds. We do not undertake to scan the mysteries of men, tai operations, nor the secret and unknown sympathies, which may connect the memori- al and imaginative faculties, as it were, by a transparent mirror, with the events of the past and future. But certainly, though many facts of similar kind have come atteSted to us of our own personal knowledge in all their dreadful certitude, we never heard one more clearly enchained in all its links than that which we have related.-M Y. &Gr.
 Nof Surprising.-The following round- about mode of announcing marriage, we find in a paper published at Brownsville. CTen.) A young lady in Missouri. was sleep ing one morning in her bed, when bee, more industrious than she, came buzzing in- to her room in quest of honey. Spying her ruby lips, it alighted, no doubt mistaking them for rose. The buzzing of his little wings awoke the fair one, who, in an instant struck the honey sucking insect with her hand, and received in return sting on her lip. She went with swollen lip to-a young doctor, who happened to be near, and beg ged him to extract the sting. He set his head to work to devise plan, to effect her purpose and finally concluded that the on- ly way was to suck t t out: It.: He proposed the bt seems k went to the s' vounr %aS mans heart
 for he kept trying to extract bee stings from her lips, till they were summoned by Old Cupid to appear at Hymen's holy altar.
