A Queer case is now undergoing exam
inatiun before Alderman hlrMirhael, of
Spring Garden. 1t is nothing more moi
less than the investigation of marriage
ceremony, which is alleged to he illegal
on The one hand, aud legal IN the other.
The facts as we understand them, are The
following.
In April last, Mr. Scott, Benz. Hutch
insnn, Esq. and annther gentleman. whose
name we have no, vet ascertained, were
peramhuIa,inS the streets of kensingIon.
When in the neighbuIhnnd of Mr.. SCOTS
house. he politely requested them 10 walk
in and take something, ii very significant
word. aud one which, no doubf was cor
rectly interpreted by the gentlemen. In
they went, and The Alderman seeing a
young lady seated in the room, asked
Scot if that was his wife. NO." was the
reply. bun accompanying it was an intima
lion that there was young lady up stairs
who had found grace in the eyes" Of MIR.
Scot, aud with whom he would not object
10 contract maIrinony. The lady was
called. Mr.. S. took her by the hand, and
the Alderman, rnbed IN his official dignity,
duly pronounced the marriage ceremony.
The unconscious bride. however, did not
say "Yrs." that awful aye, that falaI
word, acknowledging The correctness of
The matrimonial rule Of arithmetic, which
adds ore to Que. and yet makes hui one.
The Alderman, however. nothing ioalh,
attributed this omission 10 those causes to
which all Aldermen would attribute it,
first. to his presence; second, to his dlgnI.
fed manner and maeiSerial Looks; aud
thirdly, to modrSly, when appearing under
similar circumstances. Suffice II tosay
thew were married, YES. and married tnihe
Aldermam's satisfaction, roo. After hav-
ing performed his duty. he wandered his
way hOmeward, and the next day issued
certificates for the parties To Tie utter as
loni>hmenl ofrhe bride who had considered
lhr whole as ii Joke, AMI had never dreamed
of making prelrnsinnS 10 The title of wife.
Inquiries were instituted; aud the lady WAS
informed that she was actually and legally
married. The fee lnr performing the cere-
monv we understand, was moroccan dc
boeuC whic!, translated into pure English,
uea a piece Of hrcf.
The case now pending before Alderman
McMichaeI. charges the parties with con
->piracy. 1t came up on Mondav last, aud
was then continued until Friday nexr, at
A o'clock. F. Brewster, Esq. acts as one
Of the counsel. and Alderman Hutchinson.
intends 10 act as his own attorney, and will
we understand. make his remarks in the
case on next Friday. The welded par
ties were ho,h single previous to this trans

From Teras.-The arrival Of The steam
er Columbia, last night, puts US IN posses
sion Of news from Texas to the 18th inst.
of which The following may he considered
the principal items.
Some sickness prevailed in Houston.
1t was reported that au army of 4OOO
Mexicans had advanced to Matamoras.-
This intelligence made little impression on
the minds Of The Texans, whose attention
was principally turned TO the Indian FROM
tier. A large body of Texans, regulars
volunteers, aud militia, had marched to
the Northern frontier. where it was under
stond Indian parties from 20 tribes, were
about to meet them, The result was ex-
pected anxiously. The Texans ii was
said, were determined TO compel the In
dans to abandon the Northern counties,
and it was thought the savnges would give
battle raiher,han consent. We shall not
know tho result ofthis meeting for some
weeks.
More than 1000 persons are said 10 have
already suuatted on the site of the new
capitai ofTexas on The Colorado; and il
was thought The competition would he very
great at the approaching sale oil the lots.
The citizens Of Houston appear 20 Lave
bad very serious brush with the gam
blers.
1t is said the cotton crop of Eastern
Texas, will this year fall little short OF 2O,-
000 bales.
Besides the maraudiug parties Of Ca
mauclies on theWestern frontier, the trade
between Texas and The country beyond Rio
Grande del Norte is now said to suffer from
the depTedations ofland pirates, or armed
bands of white men, who plunder alike
Mexicans and Texans, when The oppor-
tunity offers.
The Houston Star Of the 10thinst. says:
"Coeuel karnes arrived in this city on
Saturday, the fth inst. from San Antonio.
lie brings no news Of parlicuIarimportanre
Parties Of Indians occasionally make their
appearance in the neighborhood Of Bexar;
bui do comparatively little damage, ex-
ccpr III the way of plumber. 1t seems thai;
the white '.land pirates" are much more
troublesome than any of our enemies
One ofthe worst features in their roaheri-
es is that they are principally confined 10
Mexican traders, between whom aud our
citizens, Congress. at its last session, at
tempted to encourage trade. They are
by no means particular, however-anv
thing in The way ofplunder is acceptable.
We learn that company is abou, 10 be

the citizens and rtaders from furhe: vin-
