on Sunday night, 7th inst, by James Jones,
ESQ.,, Mr.. Richard Williamson, of Missouri 10

romantic matrimonial cases, which of late apr
pear TO be Of frequent occurrence and psrhaps

ulars attending It. as they have been related US.
Mr.. Williamson is represented to be very
wealthy old gentleman, living in the extreme

for health and recreation, accompanied by q
nephew, he stopped few weeks since at the
well known hospitahle house of our old friend

People Of the Polar Region.

N. Y. Times gives the following mem
oranda Of the people who inhabit the polar
regions, obtained from the late expedition Of
the Rescue and the Advance
The race of people who inhabit the coun-
try adjoining Baffins Bay and its tributaries
are SO little known, that anything in rela-
tion to them is caught up with avidity.-
This arrival furnishes us with a sight Of some
of their distinctive characteristics, in dress
and otherwise, The dress Of a married lady
is composed of a pair Of short seal skin pants
fur outside, extending nearly 10 the knee
joint, where it meets With the legs Of the
boots, made Of the same material or Of deer
skin. The upper part Of the person is GOV.
cred with '.jumper," or kind of sack with
ahood for the head, and sleeves made whole
with the exception Of place for the face
and arms. This is also made of seal-skin Oh
deerskin, and in the warmer weatheris GOV.
cred with q fancy colored cotton cloth sack
In the coolest and wet weather the cloth
sack is removed and seal skin covering,
without fur, placed in its stead, This com
poses their whole dress. The dress of an
unmarried lady is distinguished by broad
band made of fancy-fgured webbing about
two and half inches wide, sewed on each
side Of tie front of their pants, extending
nearly the whole length of them. A mar
ried woman can also be distinguished from
an unmarried one by the hair which in both
cases is tied upon the top of the head, and
the ends of that of the married are colored
tblue, and Of the unmarried red. This ena-
bles a gallant to act the amiable without dan
ger Of making advances to some one already
married, and getting stray shot from an in
jured husband. The boots are made very
neatly, slender and well proportioned. The
upper leather is coloted, They tan deerskins
with urine, and their dress skins are. dressed
in beautiful manner, simply by drying and
rubbing them with smooth stone. A pair
Of slippers completes the wardrobe of lady
in the Esquimaux country: these are made
of deer-skin, and neatly figured around the
tops with white rabbits fur. The clothing
which was shown US, was made in very tas
ty and strong manner, every thread being
made Of the sinews Of the deer, and of course
very durable. The dress of the males are
very similar to married ladies, with the ex.
ception that they are longer and rather hea-
vier. The Danes are scattered about among
the Esquimaux, and furnish them with what
few foreign articles they may want, which
are limited to steel'for their spears, and some
few articles for their dresses, and coloring
for their hair and ladies' boots. The seal
seems to furnish them with almost every
thing they seem 10 require-food, clothing,
and even fuel.

HA correspondent of the N. Y. Ex-
press, writing from Newport, the famous wa
tering place, tells the following good story:
1t seems that among the bathers, the other
day, there wasa lady and gentleman, who, it
must be confessed, had shown a slight parti-
ality for each others society. An immense
wave unhappily carried the lady off her feet,
and the consequence was plunge in deep
water. The gentleman was not far off, mast
ened to her rescue, and on pulling her out she
exclaimed, with her mouth full of water;
80! gustus-dear-ta -take-me. /
perish mercy-Augustus-and-oh--oh--
oh--take me-"
"ThaDks, dearest" you have made me very
happy.
"Tbanks? for what !" said the lady. taking
long breath
"For your favorable answer to nv propos-
AL" said Augustus,
Proposal heard none"
80! yes but you did, my dear; made il
when you were under the water, and you said
yes, and told me TO take you, and mean to
take you at your word"

We were crowded in the cabin,
Not soul had room to sleep;
It was midnight ON the waters,
And the banks weregery steep.
IT'S fearful thing when sleeping
To be startled by the shock,
And hear the rattling trumpet
Thunder, "coming to lock I"
So we shuddered there in silence,
For the stoutest berth was shook,
While the wooden gates were opened,
And the mate talked with the cook.
As thus we lay in darkness,
Each one wishing we were there,

J. And he SAT down on chair.
And his little daughter whispered,
Thinking that he ought to know,
"Isn't travelling by canal boats

Then be kissed the little maiden.
And with better cheer we spoke,
,As.we trotted into Pittsburgh
When the morn looked thro' the smoke.
