A BETTER MAN THAN HIS BRornER.-The Philadel
pha Spirit of the Times vouches for the correctness Of
the following
"On Thursday last a wedding party arrived from tn.
country consisting OF the bride and groom the brother
OF the latter and several friends They put up at
one OF our public houses and in the evening" the prelm
naries having been all settled and the clergyman in at
tendance, the ceremonies about to begin when the
seeing this and being high spirited, showed as much in
dependence as the lover. In the midst OF the confusion
which ensued, the bridegrooms brother stepped up to
the bride and said, Since won't marry you. IN
marry you myself if you have no objection
None in the least, said the bride 81 ALWAYS took
You Tor better man than your brother and | am now
fully convinced OF it."
The knot was at once tied and much qualification was
expressed at the finale OF the affair.

LEGISLATIVE ELECTIONS.

Mr.. Stovall, of Halifax, made yesterday, as it
struck us, very sensible objection to electing
members of the Legislature to judgeships and
other Offices; and we are quite sure it is one in
which the people will go with him. As things GO
nowadays, the chances of member-canddate
against the whole country field are, ccteris pari-
bus, about five to one. The circumstance may
readily be accounted for, if we recollect the in
tluences and kindnesses incident to personal in
rercourse. Thus, it will be observed, that Mr.
Tyler received majority of IA in the body over
which he presided, and Mr.. Moncure received a
