\ ior>0 LADY DRAWN ~ a Lol-
rERY.-Nearly year ago 4 young la
d. IN France, named Sophie Van Behe
conceived the singular idea OF dispo-
sing Of herself in marriage By means OF
lottery. She WAS thirty years old
tired OF life OF cclibacy, and in lie
spair at not finding husband with
enough means at his command to suit
her views. She announced. therefore,
that her handsome but rather mature
persons should be disposed If on the
followin" terms : She created a lottery
with five hundred shares OF thousand
francs each. Subscribers were to pre-
sent themselves nperson, III order that
she might decide nL their acceptable

Gently took place in the office of the
notary who held the subscriptions and
the money, in presence of two magis-
trates. A thousand numbers were
placed in an urn. The subscribers being
numbered IN order As their names
were inscribed The urn WAS thor
oughly shaken up, blind hand was
thrust in, aud number 400 withdrawn.
The happy individual who subscribed
number 400, WAS y Tunisian general,
who had already occupied the public
attention by his oriental caprices. But
the lady WAS neither frightened at the
tnrban, nor the beard, nor the religion,
nor the harem Of the happy barbarian,
who hastened to marry her, and to
pocket his five hundred thousand francs.
The happy couple have left for Tunis,
where they will reside.-N. y. Times.

MR. BUCHANAN ENDoRsEs THE PLATFoRM-The
Democrats of the Keystone Club, with many others,
waited on Mr.. Buchanan at his residence, Wheat
land, near Lancaster, on the 9th and the Presi-
dent of the Club amid the most enthusiastic ap-
plause, congratulated Mr.. B. on his nomination.
Mr.. Buchanan replied as follows:
"Gentlemen of the keystone Club-I give YOU a most
hearty and warm welcome to my abode. congratulate
you, not upon my nomination. but upon the glorious priv
ege Of being citizens of this great Republic Your supe
rory the people Of other has been fully
monsraed by the conduct the assembled
during the past week at Cincinnati Upon any similar
sion III Europe the voluntary people would
have been drowned in martial music and actions con-
troed by army with banners. How unlike the specta
Gle at Cincinnati where delegates from the people of the diff
ferent States met IN convention and under the protection
OF the Constitution and the laws harmonousy deberaed
upon subject OF vital Importance to the country.
Gentlemen, two weeks since, should have made
longer speech but now that have been placed upon

for tie trhots De,ocratc pay THIS glorious party
more than ecer has demonstrated that is the true
attire party Of The constitution asrd the Union"
There is no mere acquiescence- is no equiyo-
cation in this speech. Mr.. Buchanan most heartily
approves the resolutions of the Cincinnati Conven-
ton and he will solicit votes by attempting to
insert new planks " or by taking any thing from
the platform.
