STEPHEN A DOUGLAS AND HIS WEDDING.-

Miss Ada Cults, whom he has just married
The letter says
'The marriage ceremony was performed by
Father Byrne of the Roman Catholic Church,
in the religion in which the bride was edu-
Gated. at the Georgetown Nunnery. Senator
Douglas, himself, IL not known to have de-
cided leanings towards any religious faith. In
the matter of age and personal beauty there
is a wide difference between the bridegroom
and the bride. Miss Cults is tall, elegantly
formed, with sweet, oval face, large brown
eyes, small Greecian forehead, around which
are entwlned the heavy braids of her glossy
and abundant chestnut hair. On her clear,
peachy complexion, there is perpetual war
of tie roses-the red and the white-each
falling to maintain sole supremacy.
Three months ago the judge, as Mr.. Dough-

his friend, Senator Bright who lives Just OPP

TRUCK AND DIoKER.-The people of Lowell
have carried this system of political bargaining
into their Municipal election. A sort of coali-
tion, truck and dicker movement has already
been got up for disposing of the city government,
the principle feature of which to be an ella
borate table of dividends or Offices to be divided
between the two branches of the coalition in the
event Of its success.
Upon which the Lowell Journal snd Courier
very properly discourses as follows:
The inventors and original patentees of the
truck and dicker system of politics, have f.
nally had the pleasure of seeing their system
universally adopted in this commonwealth
ThisSystem of politics, it is needless to re-
mark, concerns itself wholly about the spoils,
the plumber. 1t has the merit of openness and
unblushing frankness to commend it. Those
who proctice after this system do not even
pretend to trouble themselves in the least
about the fitness or unftness of the candi-
dates whom they may put before the public
for its suffrages They make politics purely
question of plunder-the great point with
them is the division or sharing of this plumber,
the assigning to each political freebooter his
proper proportion of the official spoils. Long
practice has finally made these truck and
dicker politicians immensely skillful in this
important branch of their profession. No old
captain of band of robbers ever attained to
greater skill in this department. Ali Bahia,
or Captain Paul Clifford, or Captain Kidd,
himself, were not more ready at striking a
dividend after successful toray on the high
way or the high seas. All hail to truck and
dicker

HORRIBLE TRAeEDY.-We are called upon
this week to record one of the most heart
rending tragedies that ever occurred in this
State, On Thursday night, the Both uIt., Mr.
VIM. Pearce, residing about five mile from
this place, while he was eating supper, told
one of his negro men, who had been guilty of
some misdemeanor that as soon as he was
through he would give him a fogging. Ac-
eordingly, when he got up from the table, he
went out into the back yard and called the
fellow out Of the kitchen, and told him to
come to him. Manifesting a great deal of
submission. he obeyed; but so coon as he got
within striking distance, drew an axe, and
split i'll twain the head Of his master-scat-
tering the brains in every direction. We are
not aware he survived minute. The negro
instantly fled, and up to this time FRIDAY

was good citizen, kind husband, father,
and master, and was beloved by all who knew
him; this, his melancholy fate, has cast
gloom over our whole community. The ne
gro, beyond doubt, will be captured before
many hours. If he is, although we admire
submission to the course pointed out by the
law Of the land, in this case so much of the
brute has been manifested, we would be glad

KANzAs AID MEETING An adjourned
meeting Of the members of the book trade was
held at the rooms of the Emigrant Aid Com
pany, No. Winter ST., Boston, on Saturday
afternoon, TO hear an address from Hon. Eli
Thayer, on the subject of further aiding the
cause of Kanzas, by subscribing to the stock
of the Emigrant Aid Corporation. The OBJ
ject of the subscription required (S1, 000,-
000,) is the building of hotels and furnishing
machinery, so as to provide accommodation
and labor for intending emigrants to that ter
ritory. B. B. Mussey, Esq, presided, and E.
Littell, Esq, ofiiciated as Secretary.
Mr.. Thayer's speech was descriptive of the
operations of the association in Kanzas, and
the further means necessary to constitute that
territory a free State lie had no apprehen-
sions himself of that result, provided it was
the determination of the free States not to al
low the majority of freemen now in Kanzas
to become minority. Mr.. Thayers argu-
ments have already been reported in sub
stance. The meeting was not large, but was
composed Of some of the more influential of
the members of the book and publishing
trades.
AT the close of the address, on the motion
of Mr.. Littell, the following gentlemen were
appointed a committee to canvas the trade of
the city, for the purpose of procuring su bsrip-
tons to the fund. b. B. Mussey, John p.

Mr.. Thayer addressed a meeting of the
merchants of Boston, in the same room on
Monday afternoon, at halt-past o'clock, on
the same subject, and with the view that they
will contribute their share OF the sum requir-

A RESULT OF SLAvERY.-The unavoidable
tendency of slavery everywhere is to render
labor disreputable--a result superlativelv
wicked, since it inyerts the natural order and
destroys the harmony Of society. Black slay-

with something allied to horror from manual
employment. In the spirit of privilege classes
OF other lands, they say they are not born to
LABOR but to command. Ask a respectable
native youth OF family in low circumstances
why ne does not learn trade and earn on in
dependent living; ten to one but he win
