--S "A oHEIa8e AAGdIs
Judge Charlton, in q recent eloquent adj
dress before the Young Mems Library AS
ISOLATION, at Augusta, Ga, thus sketches
the marriage scene:
have drawn for you many pictures of
death; let me sketch for you q brief, but
bright scene of heavenly life. 1t is the
marriage alter. A lovely female, clothed
IN all the freshness of youth and surprising
beauty leans upon the arm of him to whom
she has just plighted her faith; to whom
she has just given up herself forever
Look in her eyes ye gloomy phi osophers,
and tell me, if you dare, that there is no
happiness on earth. See the trusting, the
heroic devotion which impels her to leave
country, parents, for a comparative strang-
er. She has launched her frail bark upon
wide and stormy sea; she has handed
over her happiness and doom for this world,
to ano,her's keeping but she has done it
fearlessly, for love Whisper to her that her
chosen guardian and protector bears
manly and noble heart Oh, woe to him
that forgets bis oath and his manhood?"
Her daik wing shall the raven flap,
Der the flise hearted,
Ills warm blood the wo shall lar
Ere if. lie parted
Shame and distonor sit,
On his grave ever;
Blessing shall h sllow it,
Never! On, never.
We have all read the story of the husband
who, in moment of hasty wrath, said to
her who had but u few months before united
her fate to his, If you are not satisfied with
my conduct, 60, return to your friends and
to your happiness" "And will you give
me back that which 1 brought to you?"
asked the despairing wife. eyes," he re-
piled, call your wealth shall 90 with you;
covet it not" "Alas! ~ she answered, 81
thought not Of my WEALTH. spoke-of my
devoted love; can you give these back to
me?" "No!" said the man, as he flung
himself at her feet. Ono, I cannot restore
these, but I will do more-I will keep them
uuouIIIeu ana untaInued-I Will cherish them
through my life. and in my death; and
never again will forget that have sworn
to protect and cherish her, who gave up to
me all she held most DEAR
Did I not tell you there was poetry in a
woman's look-a woman's world? See it
here; the mild, the gentle reproof of love
winning back FROM its harshness and rude
ness, the stern and unyielding temper of
an angry man. All, if creations fairer sex
only knew their strongest weapons, how
many of wcdl)ck's fercest battles would be
unfought, how much of unhappiness and
GOODNESS would he avoided

who has been in Europe n year or two ago,
related in lecture the other night, that he
saw an old gentleman in England who met
Mr. Webster Mt the grave of Shakespeare,
and heard him repeat there, in the most
impressive manner, the passage from Ham

gentleman further said that he had seen and
heard Burke, Pitt Fox, Sheriden, and other
brilliant luminaries Of that day, but he

B5 A countrywoman was carrying on q
very ample process against neighbor in
one of the small courts of Germany. The
attorney of the opponent pestered her with
so much chicanery and legal subtleties, that
she lost all patience, and interrupted him
thus:
only lords, the cause is simply this:-I
bespoke of my opponent the carpet maker,
n carpet with figures which were to be hand
some as my lord the Judge, and he wants
now to force me to take one with horrible
carricatures, ugler even than his attorney.
Was not right in breaking off the bargain?"
The court laughed at the comparison, the
attorney was stupefed, and the woman won
her suit.

iowa The examination OF all persons under arrest
has been postponed until Tuesday next.
The ''missing gir,'' Hannah Coz 9orau, or, as her
mother calls her, May Joseph, "-arrived in town
on iurday evening, from Philadelphia, where, il
is said, she has been residing since her departure

turn TO her former (CalhoIc) creed, have en- fruit
less. She came hom Philadelphia in company with
several cizrns. both Of Charleslown and our own

quell the partially suppressed excitement which
reached so dangerous pitch on Wednesday even
ing And here let us add, that a tolerahe knowl-
edge Of human nature will enable one to comprehend
this matter. We can find many Protestant moth
er who would be sorey troubled if her young daugh.
ter should become Catholic, and who would be
quite earnest and active to remove such daughter
beyond the reach Of Catholic influence. Is it sur.

MEssRs. EDIToRs:-The death of Mr. Horatio
Gates, having been announced in your paper, and
knowing the anxiety felt, not only by his numerous
friends and relations bat by large portion OF the
citizens of this, his native place, thought it might
not be undressing 10 your readers, to know some
thing more OF his history, since he left his native
land, with his family OF twelve children and grand
children, for the land OF gold.
With three thousand dollars in his trunk, Mr.
Gates started, the 18th of September last, with the
regrets, and against the romonstrances of all his
friends, neighhois, and fellow citizens, not Of

ceeded to New York, when his fe so feeble

at the Isthmus the most of them had the fever and
the children were sick with the dysentery, and when

they obliged To stop (ior they did intend to go

The Election.

The sautary influence of Wing legislation on the
politics of the State. is decidedly maniest in the
result Of the election which took place yesterday If
the retrrrs we get from this county, with such re-
ports as have reached from abroad, are any ind-
cations Of the result, he friends Of reform have
swept the State, and carried the Convention, hv
EAa5oriy, such as they had moi eNpec,eh and such
as they had hardly dared ever to hope fov. The
towns which we have heard from,give FORTY ONE
delegates for the Coalition, and only TWO for the
Wings So fav, we do not hear OF single town
that has failed to elect. The remaining towns in
this county will probably give about l6 coalition 10
or waig-so that there will be a coalition MAORI
" IN the whole county, Of something like fifty.
In this city, the Wings Nominated the strongest
ticket, probably, that they ever presented for the
SURFACES of oor citizens; but they were beaten, as
will be seen by the below, by an average ma
jorily Of s07. Even such names as those Of Gov
Lincon aud Davis could not bear up against the
swelling tide of indignation which now sells against
the Wing party for its derelictlon of principle AID
for its recent outrageous Legislative despotism and
abuse of power.
The vote in This citv was &C E,llows.

SMART, IF TRUE-The Milaoautie Wisconsin
relates the following as an authentic transaction
Of the managers Of the Rock River Valley Union
Railroads
1t is said that the agent of the company made
contract with an English house about year
since He was to pay half cash, and the other
half in bonds of the road. How to pay the half
was the question, for the company had no money.
lucky thought struck him-iron would probably
advance. He ordered just double what the road
would want; $40 tons instead of $50; 1000 tons
instead of 500, and SO on. Half the iron, before
its arrival, was sold to the Southern Michigan Co
for cash, at a triSe under the market price, by
reason of the advance in iron, ahording profit
to the agent. Thus the English house was paid
one-half cash, and the road got what iron it want
ed, and had little cash left to pay for grading a
few miles. Great country, this
