The New Secretary Of the treasury.

The Albany Atlas, Free Soil sheet, says:
"Mr. Corwin, of Ohio, abandons his
seat in the senate TO 60 into the cabinet!
For nearly two years he has seemed gagged
and bound to his cheir-voting with "ppa-
rent reluctance on the side OF freedom, but
without word of justification for himself,
or of defence of his State, or rebuke to the
insolent and aggressive pfopogandst to sla-
very and disturbers of the Union.
"He has been dumb-waiter upon Provi-
dence, and chance has at last touched the
spring at which he rises to the Cabinet,
with loaded platters.
"rhere is an adage which we will not
quote, but which the. Representatives of the
Porcine State may be supposed 10 bear in
mind-about ''lhe silent SOW, ,'&c.
He doubtless now feels that he has real
lied all the benefits ol this pradelti tial and
savory MAXIM"

A solemn Wedding

The Rev. Mr.. Barlow, of the Episcopal
Church recently died ut Chicago. The
Chicago Tribune says, that a scene of the
most touching interest occurred around the
bed Of death, a few minutes before Mr.. B.
brsathed his last. His daughter was to
have been married the next Wednesday
evening; but, feeling his end to be near, he
expressed wish that the ceremony should
BE- performed before his departure, and his
request was complied with, though he was
20 far on his solemn journey as 10 be uncon.
: scieus Of what was going on before
him. Ten minutes afterwards, his closed
eyes opened in the light Of. another and
brighter life. Thus were brought together
the two most heart.touching events of life
-nsath and the Bridal. On the one hand
the opening and sublime realities Of the
life that has no end; on the other, the mos
joyous anticipations that can brighten th'
futurs Of onr existence on earth.
