MARRIAGE OF MAJOR G.. TocHMAN

Washington Telegraph of Saturday
evening says:--We are Informed that
Major Tochman left Washington city
yesterday morning for Harper's Ferry,
where he was to be married at nine
O'Clock this morning to Miss Apollonia

For twenty years past the malcon.
tents of South Carolina have been tel
ling how feartully their State was op-
pressed by the General Government,
and how she was impoverished to fill
the overlooking Golfers of the North.
They have pointed to her blighted and
paralysed condition as an evidence of
the utter imposslbility OF her continuing
to live under the terrific exertions prac-
tised upon her. After all this it is GER
tainly little curious to find the Wash
ington Southern Press, the especial or.
gan of South Carolina, Boosting of the
condition of that State, and proclaiming
that no Northern State can at all com
pare with her in prosperity.

THE COUNTRY PREss.-The follow.
ing well-timed remarks concerning the
Country Press, are gathered from the
Norristown Register. They are so
much to the point, that We transfer them
to unr columns entire:
"l'ocal newspapers are neglected by
tn" people Of the neighborhood and
county IN which they are printed, and
that, too, because their importance is
not properly appreciated 1t seems
strange persons should overlook the in.
cldents and facts by which they ale i'm.
medlately surrounded, and fail to rem.
der encouraging assistance to journals
devoted to the dissemination of inter.
ests peculiarly their own, whilst they
subscribe literally for papers which are
issued from some distant place, and made
up OF details of a general character only.
Such, however, is the fact, and mo.
ments reflection will induce the convic.
ton that it is not as it should be. Lo-
cal or country papers are indispensable
to the general welfare. They are hand
books OF what is going on in detached
communltles-records of its legal, 20.
lIt'cal and peculiar history. As such
they should be encouraged by all as
matter OF duty, and the labor and ener.
gy ofthe publisher ought not to fail ola
just remunerative reward. One coun.
try paper at least should be taken in ev.
cry family; then if its means Justify
large expenditures for such objects, 9th.
ers can and ought to be subscribed for.
But subscriptions to remote journals, to
the exclusion of local ones, cannot, we
THINK be justified on any principles of
harness 1t taking away support from
the domestic enterprise. which is far
more important and valuable than most
persons are in the habit of regarding it,"

COLONEL BENTON.

The Washington correspondent Of

Col. Benton has returned 10 this city from

history OF the United States for The last thirty
years, including an inside view Of the poll
tics and politicians for that period, begin

ending with the late senatorial election ir

Of the annexation Of Texas. the election o
John Quincy Adams. the defeat OF the bank
and the defeat Of Van Buren, in the Balti
more Convention of'44.

and tergversations, it will at least prove q,

UJudge Wilkins, the U. States
District Judge for Michigan, has charg.
ed the Grand Jury, among other things,
that the fugitive slave law is consti.
tuiionsl, and that il ,could be and will
be executed in Michigan; and that all
obstruclions to an arrest, or interfer-
ence with the arrested, will be pun.
ished as the law prescribes. The har.
boring or concealment spoken of in the
act, he says, is the fraudulent act Of
placing the fugitive beyond the reach
and knowledge of his owner. "This
act must be done with fixed intention
TO violate the law by defeating its
object, which is fraud upon the law
as well as upon the rights which the
