MARRIAGE BY STEAM.

The village of California 1--WE suppose
a number Of blacksmith shops and stores
constitute it village) the county seat of
the new county Moniteau, was the scene
of Marriage a few days since, remarka-
BILE only for the locomotive speed of the
courtship that proceeded it. The BRIDE
groom, citizen Of Benton county, Mo-,
on arriving in California, stepped in
store. and politely informed the measurer
of tape, who stood quietly behind the
counter, yard-stick in hand, in expecta'
ton of the entrance of customer, that
he was in want of a wife, and that if he
knew of any woman who was in SINH
lar situation in regard to husband, he
was "her man." The gentleman to
whom he applied himself replied, that
there was at his house lady who had
remained ain maiden meditation, fancy
free" for some years past; but that he had
no doubt that gentleman Of the Bento-
n nan's distinguished appearance and plea
sing manners could carry the citadel OF
her heart by storm. An introduction was
kIltl SOllClttu, StOlC QOOt NdS CfOoCu,
and-presto! the modern celebs stands
in the presence Of the tall Californian.-.
He said nought Of love, he said nought Of
dying, but like plain, blunt man, he
plunged IN MEDIAs RES by the inquiry
whether she wanted to marry! She told
him she didn't swami to do ANYTHING
else." lie then asked if she would mar
ry a man about his size-she told him
she "would do nothing shorter" Being
answered according to his wishes, he
sought out justice near at hand, and in
fifteen minutes after his entrance into the
village, bachelor and a perfect stranger,
he was the welded lord of one Of Cali
Iornia's iairest daughters. When we last
saw the welded couple, they were noun
ted upon poney, vending their way 10
the husbands beautiful home on the banks
of the Osage.-Ful. Telegraph.

The LOUISVILLE MYsTERY.-A few
days ago young lady walked into
clothing store at Louisville, purchased a
suit OF clothes as she alleged) for her
husband, and then walked out. Not ma
nv minutes after this transaction, she was
seen in the neighborhood OF the store in
the very garm ents she had purchased Tor
her husband. Curiosity was excited. the
police were on the qui uiue, but the young
lady, some how or other, could not be
found. The Cincinnati Herald thus
solves the mystery !:
"We have at last found out the secret
fthe mysterious lady who was the cause
of so much speculation at Louisville. On
Wednesday, as we were informed by re-
spectacle authority, drayman on Main
street, near Sixth, was accosted by a
young gentleman, who asked him If ne
knew where certain person lived, men-
tioning the name of keeper of house
OF i'll fame. The drayman said that he
did. w hereupon the young gentleman
Offered him FIVE dollars if he would show
him the house. He did so, and on ar
irving was requested by the gentleman TO
walk with him up stairs, which he did
When up stairs the stranger asked for Ma
ry-. She came down, when he an
nounced himself as her brother, whom
she had not seen for years. Quite talk
ensued, when Mary asked for her sister
and family. The supposed young gen.
tleman announced himself the sister, and
opening his vest, proved it. Thereupon
ensued tears, showing a world of natural
affection, which was too real for doubling.
The couple then went out Of the house,
and, taking the Pittsburgh packet, left the
city. The disguised sister had learned
the condition of the one here, and had as
suined this disguise that she might safely
gain admission, and induce her to leave.
She took the drayman with her that she
might run no risk Of personal danger"
What more touching illustration could
be furnished Of sisters lcyo.

10 nhc f0NoF ~ inc fHofNfs
sir,--In your paper Of last week, observed a
Communication, signed Addison Brown, which pur-
ports, IN answer to question raised at the close Of
former Communication from myself % assign the
reasons why the Committee appointed to recon
mend books for schools in this county, did mot In
cludc Grecnleaf's Grammar on their list
The propriciy Of the question above alluded TO-
was intended to be based upon the remarks which
preceded that question. These were designed to
show some Of the peculiar merits Of Grccnleafs
Grammar, and It's superiority As an elementary
work, suitable for beginners. The ground assumed
Is not coniroycrted. Il Is merely said in reply that
the Committee thought Mr. Wells Grammar to be
superior TO any other. 10 the present writer, this
method Of disposing Of the subject appears to be
rather summary.
The case is MIR Grccnleafs compilation
(the only ono Of the kind,) is simple, concise, and
plain, stripped Of all extaneous matter, not useful
to beginners. II presents, moreover, method Of
instruction which enables scholars, under a compe-
tent teacher, to acquire good knowledge Of the
subject with unparalleled ease and rapidiiy. This
\ shown by repeated experiments and abundant
testimonals.--Mr Wells Grammar belongs 10 an
other and numerous class. Il docs not appear TO
vary from others Of that class, in any important
particulars. Il may be very good book, lperhaps
the best Of the kind in H. proper places that is
work to be put into the hands Of advanced sehol-
ars. II does not however and cannot supersede the
utility Of Mr. Greenlears book as one for beginners
We are told that "Mr Grcenleaf and all other
friends Of education, should rejoice that Mr Wells
has so faithfully and successfully studied the works
Of his predecessors, as to make Gnmmar judged
10 be more excellent than theirs" This Of course
must depend upon the question whether We coincide
in this judgment. Mr. Wells himself informs us,
that he collected between three and four hundred
treatises on English Grammar" and he hernlds his
book with a catalogue occupying several pages, Of
works which he refers 10 authorities. This, to
some may be evidence Of great learning and ability
To Others, Ia viii appear more like pedanry. In
looking over his catalogue, Mr. Grecnleafs book
does not appear TO be included. We arc to infer
from this, IL may be supposed, either that he was
ignorant Of its existence or that he judged IL un-
worthy Of notice, or was unwilling to acknowledge
IL merits
The writer has no desire to see Grcenleaf's Gram
mar exclusively used. On the other hand, he deems
il neither wise nor just that Wells Grammar, or any
other Of that class should superscde the Of
Greenleafs, rs a book for beginners. Wells book
may be more excellent than his, just as Adams
or Davies Arithmetic is better than Colburns First
Lessons that Is, better as a second book, for Ad-
vanced scholars. But Columns little work has I'M
nvalled and unimifAted merits, as INT Joot, for
beginners The same Is tue Of Greenlcafs Gram

A Psalm Of Thanksgiving.


And show your con.crownd tops;
Fluticr your skirts, We laughing rills,
Festoond with yellow crops
Spread forth your boughs, ye stately trees,
And let your pride be shown,
Through meadows and in dapplcd leas,
Be Earth's great gladness knowni
With April's jewel drops;
Abroad His royal bounty rcigns,
In Autumns golden crops
His mighty spirit rode the sky,
On Marchs coursing clouds,
Nor any humble heart passd by,
or all His human crowds.

For ready, ayi and ample, is

And various victual ever His,
