Married,

On Tuesday, lst inst, by the Rev. w. W.
Lord, at the residence Of William Stamps ESQ,
Rosemount; Thomas s. ANDERSON, ESQ, Of
Madison, and Miss ELLEN NJ. DAsIs, of this
county.
Didn't we enjoy the champaign, fruit and
cake, which accompanied the above notice :
For once our quiet office became the scene of
festive mirth and jollity with our "boys," who
like ourselves had almost forgotten the taste Of
such Injuries. We drank the health of the
happy couple in flowing bumpers-which their
generosity had fumished--whie the friends
we invited to partake, vowed they would love
ofall things to follow our calling. Alas they
know not such favors are too much like what
is said respecting the visits ofthe spirits of the
blessed.
To say we wish the happy pair, all the en-
joyment and bliss allotted to mortals, would be
merely commonplace.
May every care they may be destined to en-
counter, be so tempered as to become the
choicest of blessings. May all they anticipate
OF the agreeable and happy, be theirs and we
can say nothing more, when we invoke for
them Heavens and the printers benediction."

Col. jeff Davis.

We do not deem it at all important to no.
tice the constant attacks which petty scribblers,
embittered perhaps by some strange aversion
to his noble character, are constantly making
upon his public reputation. His name is to
them spell offearful power He haunts them
like nightmare, and conjures up strange i'm
ages ofterror in their day-dreams. To their
malignant and affrighted souls he seems to
loom up and stalk before them like giant
spectre ofevil omen. They see only treason
in his patriotism, and some internal power in
his lofty talents and noble ambition. They
glow with mingled rage and terror upon him
as he advances step by step in the confidence
and admiration of his country. In the fame
which has been gathering around him they
can only see such brightness as shone upon the
brow of him who marshalled rebellious angels.
They behold and tremble, they hear his praises
sounded and gnash their teeth in impotent
rage.
He can well defy their malice as he would
spum their favor and support.-Free Trader.

To this Ladies of England.

Thswife Of EH-President Tyler has respond
ed most eloqusntly to The letter Of the Ouch
ess Of Sutherland and Others, to their Amer
can sisters on the subject Of Slavery in the
United States. The province Of American
women, especially those Of the South, Is clear
y defined, and q good hint given TO British
wives to look more after the Affairs Of home
and trouble themselves less with those Of na-
tons England is justly represented as the
author Of the system among US she now 50
warmly reprobates, while any interference Of
Statemen through their wives or otherwise is
represented as Of, TO say the least, a very sus-
pieious character. The true condition Of our
slaves is then depicted and strongly contrast
ed with that Of the starving thousands Of Eng
lish and Irish poor, and the authors Of the
letter to which Mrs. Tylers is an answer. are
strongly urged to remember that true charity
begins at home. The ties that should bind
the people of the two countries are then spo-
ken of aud the letter concludes as follows:
For myself when have visited England, it
has been with emotions of reverence growing
out Of the recollections of the historic page.
Westminster Abbey, with its undying memo
nals-the noble monuments of the past scat
tered over the face of the country-the very
ruins spoke of an ancestry alike dear to the
American and Englishman. My intermixture
Of Scotch blood, derived from leader of two
Scottish clans, who lost life, castle, and estate
in the wars of King Charlie, with the pure
Anglo-Saxon, in no wise abated my ardor and
enthusiasm, when | looked upon these me
mentoes of the mighty past in which so many
OF us here claim common interest with you.
But if England will sever these ties; if in
stead Of cultivating good feeling with us, she
chooses rather to subject us to taunt, to ridi-
cule, to insult in its grossest form and, above
all, improperly to interfere in our domestic af-
fairs; if she scatters her nobility among us,
first to share our hospitality and then to abuse
us; if what is still worse, she sends her ennis
saries, In the persons Of members of Parlia-
ment, to stir up our people to mutiny, and re-
volt; il, which is quite as Objectionable, her
public press shall incite her women, and
the more illustrious for birth the worse it itmakes
the matter, to address us homilies on justice,
humanity, and philanthropy, as if we had not
like themselves the advantage of civilization,
and the lights of Christianity; with all the
desire to cultivate relations Of undying amity,
the men of the United States, deriving their
spirit from their mothers and their wives. may
be forced into the adoption Of very differ
ent feeling with regard to Great Britain.

THE PRESIDENTS PRIVATE SEcRETARy,-
General Pierce has selected Sidney Webster
Esq as his private secretary, As this is con-
hdentlal post of importance, both to the Presi-
dent and to the incumbent, and as it is much
exposed to many species Of outside influence,
both good and evil, in peculiar degree, it may
interest our readers to know something more
of Mr.. Pierces choice.
Mr.. Webster was born at Gilmanton, N. H..
in 1925 or '27, and is, therefore about 29 years
Of age. He graduated at Yale College in is4s,
and Immediately entered the law-office of his
uncle, the Hon. Mr.. Peaslee, of Concord, who
is now one of the members of Congress from
New Hampshire. At the expiration of six
months he entered the law-school at Cam
bridge, where he remained two years, and then
entered the Office Of William Dihon, ESQ.,, in
Boston, where he completed his studies. In
November, 1851, he was admitted to the ban
of Massachusetts,, when he returned to New
Hampshire and entered into partnership with
Col George, of Concord, who, since the retire
ment Of General Pierce, stands at or near tn,
head Of the New Hampshire bar. Itwas then
and in this relation, that he was found and in
vited by General Pierce TO accompany him Il
Washington, in the capacity of private secre
tary. He is man Of fine address, possessing
a well-stored and symmetrical mind, and, abov'
all, man of infexible integrity. We con
grstnlate him upon the suspicious dawn Of hi
public career

calls for county meetings to appoint delegates
10 the approaching State Convention. While
we are By no means in any great haste to see
the party IN a state Of complete organization,
vet il must be obvious how greatly all arrange
ments would be facilitated ifthe Governor could
be induced to make prompt declaration Of his
purpose in reference to The Congressional cleo

may possibly be involved by his non-action.
He has announced that he would decide by the

er he will order the election for one or for all
