even to details the most careful attention. Du-
ring his long and active life he has been remark
able for a regular habit of unceasing toll. Even
in his retirement at Wheatand he was close

YouR COUNTY PAPER.-The following from
Fowler & Wells Lite UustrateR is so good and
to the point, that we commend it to our friends
without further comment;
We occasionally receive letters in which the
writers express their determination to stop their
county or village papers, and take one Of our pub
lications We think man ought to support his
own paper first, and then, if he can afford to take
paper from distance, let him do SO and then
we shall be happy to furnish him with the LIFE IL
tastrated The country press is, in our opinion,
the most important in its effects the euighten-
ment of the nation 1t conveys in ten thousand
rlls intelligence to nearly every home in the
country. The country prtss ought TO receive a
cordial support. Every place should try to have
its paper Of just such character that people
could be justly proud Of it, To this end let them
pay promptly, advertise literally, recommend
warmly, and in every way stand by their editors
as long as they can conscentiously'

Marriage Extraordinary,

At the WesternAdIousc, on Wednesday night,
between the hours sof ten aud eleven o'clock, af-
ter one houc'S courtship. q verdant individual
from Sand IlfH was married to the beautiful and
accomplished Mrs. Evans, alias j. q. NJ, of this
city The happy bridegroom came down day
or two since, and went to the Intelligence office
and stated that his business was to secure wife,
and deposited quarter eagle to enlist the estab-
ishmeut in his service But failing to secure the
object of his affections in this way he made known
his design TO his friends, who set themselves to
work to accommodate him, and introduced him to
the above mentioned lady, whose affections be
easily won. After the ceremony was performed
by the Rev. Mr.. Cold Saw, the joyful couple re
paired to the Hotel de Cannon, where a grand
entertainment was given by his verdancy, con
sisting of Champagne and the usual dXings.
The bill for expenses was as follows ;-carriage
hire SO; wine SO outside treats and incident
ais, SlJ making in all, $35. The fee Of the
Rev. gentleman which was SO, he refused to
pay, which was very singular for man Of his
liberal disposition, and in consequence Of which
the whisky has been rather short since. The
happy pair retired to their nuptlal chamber to-
wards the break of day. when his lady love eX-
cused herself for moment and vanished from his
enraptured sight, forgetting to return. Here was
a situation for u newly married man. The bal
ance of the hours until it was time for him to
arise from his deserted couch, were spent in trying
to determine whether he was actually married or
only had the nightmare lie is now in search of
his IaloJM wife. or some other one, and declares
that he will not be ioiled again in his determina-
tion, and have all his pleasing antlcipations to
turn out mere mental hallucination. There is
some doubt in certain circles about the gender of
the person who he did not marry UarysvUe M-

A FRoG IN ICE.-We were shown yesterday, by
a Savannah gentleman, lump of Northern ice in
which medium sized frog was comfortably and
coolly ensconced, His lrogshp Eve like to talk
respectfully of all beings, even OF our political OPP
ponents) seemed to be cross between the rama

make a bull of him by giving his history from
memory, dixie other dealers in antiquated Greek
flesh, &C., we Immediately turned to Lucian' s
Greek Dialogues of the Dead, and found as fol-
lows:
Ye frogge is one ampbybyous animal with
foure feete, a nayked boddie, and WITHOUT ever Il
taile. lie hath hoarse vOyce, and loyeyeth
much to use it on ye summer nights, lie is re-
markable for graceful swimming with rapiduesse
and for take yerrie large leaps on ye lande.'
That authority settled, we will state that the
above frog showed symptoms OF life after his cool
incrustation had dissolved, and having been
placed in water was thawed into life and aetivi-
iy, 1t certainly was a curiosity to live frog
thus done up in ice but whether last winter it
contemplated tour to southern latitudes, and
considering the above was the coolest mode OF

DARK HoURs.-There are dark hours that mark
the history of the brightest year For not a
whole mouth in any OF the millions of the past,
perhaps, has the sun sbone brilliantly all the
time. And yet the mists and shadows of the
darkest hours were dissipated and fitted heed
lessy away. The cruelest of the ice ietters have
been broken, dissolved, and the most furious
storm has lost its powers to harm.
And what parable is all this Of human life
of our inside world where the heart works at its
destined labors. Here toO We have the Oversha-
downgs of dark hours, and many u cold blast
chills the heart to its core. But what matters itg
Man is born hero, and it is only by darkness and
storms that heroism gains its greatness and best
development aud illustratiOn-then it kindles the
black cloud into blaze of glory, and the storm
bears it more rapidly to its destiny. Despair not
then. Never give while one good power is
yours, use it, disappointment will be realized.
Notifying failure may attend this effort and that
one-h but only be honest and struggle on, aud it
will all work we'll.
