On untying another enclosure of delicate white hst
pressed paper also tied up four white ribbons, we
discovered a couple of pieces of the most exquisite
bridal cake, which the happy happy couple had sent
for our lips and RECHERCHE palate One Of the pieces
was light, gay and airy, and encrusted with sugar,
white as the driven snow-the other dark, varegated
full Of plums sugar. and all the richness of India
How poetical how expressive! The one indicating
the sweet palpitatng, blushing bride, soft and fem
nne-the other, the gallant bridegroom, scientific
rich, bronzed and masculine.
Thus il is, our old friend DR.. Chabert is married to
lady Of one of the most distinguished and fashona-
bic families in this country. We killed off day,
our amiable friend-but he is now unkable Our
favorite saran has abandoned simples and taken TO
compounds. Vire Tamour!
This bridal ceremony has occasoned greater SEN
saton IN New York, than the suspension of specie
payments. The happy bride is the daughter of the
late Bishop Provost. She is connected, on both male
and female side, with all our old noblesse The Gin
tons, the Coldens the Stuyvesants, the Livngstons,
the Rapeljes, and all the old Dutch, English, and
Scotch settlers back the colonial times are counted
among her ancestry and relations. BY her former
husband, the eccentric George Rapeje, Esq, she
was left dowery of $4,000, per annum After his
lamented death, Count di Rocca, n celebrated TIA
Ian nobleman, set up pretensions to her hand and
heart-the gallant and polished Doctor Julian Xavier
Chabcrt, king of fire, and king of hearts, howeve;
earned oil the prize. The Italian could not sur

one morning before breakfast The field being now
clear the Doctor renewed his suit, routed all compe
tors, and has carried of the lady in the face of all
the whole gaping world.
Many many happy days do we wish them.
Madame Julian Xavier Chabert is highly accom-
Pushed and excellent woman-charitable TO a fault,
and elegant and sentimental to the edge Of existence
She is IS or 50 years Of agcprobably the same age
as the doctor. On the day after the marriage a

the fashionable tour-Saratoga, Niagara, and the
mountains.
Thus stands the matter IN the household. But We
mus, not disguise that this marriage has created a
prodigous sensation and excitement among the old
families Of New York. The young and the old are
erecrating Doctor Chabert as a parreru-an advcn-
