The first weddins.

Major Noah thus pleasantly and philosophical
lay discourses on the first wedding. He says;
We like short G. urtships and in his, Adam acged
like a sensible man-he fell asleep a bachelor
and woke to find himself a married man.-
He appearsto have popped the question almost
Immediately after meeting Miss Evei and she
without Irritation or shyness gave him 4 kiss
and herself. a.c
OF that first kiss in the world we have had,
however, our own thoughts, and sometimes;
in a ~poetical mood wished we were the man
that did it. But, the deed is done--the chance
was Adams and he improved it. Welike the
notion of getting marriediu a garden. Adams
was private. No %enYious beaux we're there; no
croaking old maids; no chatting ounts and
gruntihg grandmother. The birds Of heaven
were the minstrels, and the glad sky flung its
light upon the scene. One thing about the
first wedding brings queer things to usin spite
Of its scriptural truth. Adam and his wife
were rather young to marry some two or three
days old according to the sagest elder; with
out experience, without a house, a pot or ket4
tie, nothing but love and Eden!

SANTA ANNA

We find room to-day for The reply Of Santa
Anna to The Mexican Congress, announcing his
acceptance Of the Provisional Presidency; which
we received by The Mitis lew days since. We
should feel that we did injustice TO our readers
not TO lay before them this first public exposition
Of bis views made by the newly elected chief
magistrate Of republic with which we are at
war. Every reader will desire TO form his own
opinion OF what the Mexican President proposes
10 himself There are usually much clearer eX-
ponents OF Mexcan's real intentions than his
formal declarations, but we give Santa Anna the
full benefit OF what he ayows. The document Is
pre-eminently Mexican, and We think is per-
fectly characteristic OF the man who, during
life OF extreme vicissiiudes has always protested
the good OF his country, and always acted for his
own. Il would be novel event in his varied
career il Tor once his professions and designs
were identical, and al The same lime identical
with his country's interests We think II mol too
harsh 10 say Of Santa Anna. that his political
life has been an embodied lie. IL would be
strange If a, last he has become enamored OF the
simplicity and beauty OF unlh:

ment troops, from Merida, had attacked and Ia.
ken on the 10Th ult., The village of Tabi killing
from 40 10 so of The facciosos The Campeachy
party is called-and making II prisoners; many
were wounded. The loss on The part OF The Go.
vernment troops is put down al 5 killed and |
wounded. The iacciosos fed, leaving their dea,.
and wounded on The field. About The 18th, The re-
evolutionary party proposed capilulalon to the
Government, but il was not admitted. The com.
manaer then nimaled 10 the chief of the troops in
Merida, that he would surrender atthe expiration
of "a hours; but as the beseging parry would mo-,
admit oil parley by commissioners on both sides,
the in,imation 10 surrender was not regarded of
any importance.
Grea, dissatisfaction has been evinced by the
people Of Merida, al late hgh-handed measure
Of the authorities OF Campeachy-,hato of seizng

from Havana by The brig Martin.
