SHIP BENZ. TUoKER.-After our last paper was is
sued we found we were in error in stating the amount
necessary to repair this ship at $4,000 or $4,000.
The surveyors brought in an estimate of $4,000, and
it is the opinion of nautical men, well versed in such
matters, that, from the amount of her damages, this
sum will be no more than barely sufficient to put the

In your new book, "The Masonic
Code" am little surprised to find
the idea upheld--ihat the Lodge
should always elect the same man to
the East, as long as he will consent to
hold the Office. To this doctrine | am
opposed. and. with your permission,
will briefly give my reasons.
Masonry is an institution calcula-
ted only to benefit its disciples. 1t
asks nothing from them in return for
itself, but so much as will render itself
permanent and secure the object Of its
laws and principles. Now in order
that these laws, these principles. and
this charity, the chief corner stone,
should have their perfect work they
must be always perfectly understood.
Well. then, ask any person to visit
with me the Lodges Of American Ma
sonry. from Dan to Beersheba, with
the sole view Of finding out-of Sc

ExrRAonprSARY MARRIAGE ScENE.-
The good people OF Belfast. in Ireland.
were recently thrown into quite state
Of excitement by marriage which
did not come of in that city. The
particulars are briefly as follows:
On q certain morning wedding
procession was seen on the way to-
wards church, recruiting its number
as 1t went along. The gay lothario
was on the shady side Of ffty. the
damsel had only heard IL thunder for
seventeen summers. The priest was
proceeding with the solemn ceremony,
the bridegroom had already plighted
his hand and heart. and the pretty
brides turn had come to utter the
usual VOWS, when, to the utter conster.
nation Of the spectators in general.
and dismay Of the bridegroom 10 par
ticular, she broke out with most de-
eided negative, lifted her feet. and
boltcd out Of the sanctuary as hard al
she could run. II Is said that a pre-
vious engagement led to this new IL
lustration. which says that "there'i
many slip between tho cup and tn,
lip." The disappointed bridegroom
retired To his residence alone and mar
yelling. HfHe4

A WARxIso.--A few weeks since,
in the course OF conversation with an
eminent broker, who has been over 40
years acquainted with the leading
moneyed men Of the country, we ask
ed II he ever knew schemer. who
acquired money or position by fraud.
continue successful through life, and
leave a fortune mt death. We walked
together about three minutes in silence
when he replied-"Not onel / have
seen men," he said "become rich as il
by magic, aad afterwards reach high
position in public estimation. not only
for honor and enterprise. but even for
piety, when some small circumstance
Of no apparent importance has led to
Investigations, which resulted in dis
grace aud ruin" s
On Saturday we again conversed
with him upon the same subject, end
he stated that since our last interview
he had extended his inquiries among
a large circle Of acquaintances, and
with one solitary exception, and that
doubtful, their experience was to the
same effectas his own. He then gave
brief outline Of several small and
big schemers and their tools. their
rise and fall. Suicide. murder. arson.
and perjury. he said, were common
crimes with many of those who made
haste to be rich," regardless of the
means, and. may be added, there are
not a few men. who may be seen ON
Change every day, ignorantly stri-
wing for their own destruction. II is
not, he said, so much the love Of gold
that leads many business men astray,
as the desire to be thought sharp oE
successful. He concluded that for
tunes acquired without honesty gene
rally overwhelmed their possessors
with infamy .--Boston alias.
