?, THE XI. CONGRESSIONAL DIsTRIcT.vThere
is likely to be warmly contested canvass in
the Eleventh Congressional District for a sue
cessor to the Hon. Samuel Brenton. The
Democratic party will probably nominate the
Hon. Franklin Randall, Of Fort Wayne, who
has served several sessions as State Senator
and who is said to possess rare elements OF
personal popularity, and is "a Democrat Of
unquestioned fidelity and orthodoxy" Tbs
Republicans have not yet designateda candi-
date. The election will be one of great in
tercst to the whole State. In October last,
Mr.. Brenton received 1O,699 votes, and his
Mr.. Lowry, $3.50; Brenton's ma
jority, 10. Morton's majority was 623 in
the same district. Should the Republicans
select strong and popular candidate their
majority, in the present state of feeling, will
not probably be less than in October.

Runaway Marriage In High Life-she Bride
Is ,7soW Worm s2S0, 200. ias1 t

A marriage took place in Grace Church on last
Monday, that has excited no little interest in
fashionable circles, and caused quite a Austering
among certain wealthy families. Il seems that
the bride is an heiress, and worth in her own
right $3.50, 200. She was the inmate of one Of
our most exclusive female seminaries, and is but
fourteen years and eight months old. Her wealth
and the high position of her family were Of
course known to her associates, and her acquaint.
ance was consequently courted. Among the gen.
tlemen she was introduced to was SIX, q
we'll known hdbitue of Fifth Avenue saloons, who
had reached the mature age of thirty.one years.
The acquaintance ripened to intimacy, and event.
ually the parties became engaged to be married.
As the parents might interp0se an objection, it
was arranged that it should take place unknown
to them or any of the young lady's friends. i,
off last Saturday, (St. Valentines day,) and the
church was opened, the minister ready, and a few
spectators had also assembled to witness the mar
riage ceremony, which was announced for IL A.
N. But noon came and went, and no bride made
her appearance, and the church was closed. Ii
seems that the principal Of the seminary in which
the young lady was pupil, gos wind that some-
thing unusual was on the tapis, and she locked
the would-be bride in her room, and SO prevent.
ed the ful6lment of her engagement. But Glove
laughs at locksmiths,', and by some means Alr.
K. was notified of the situation of affairs, and ar
ranged matters in such manner that the young
lady escaped from surveillance, and the couple
were duly married in one of our most fashiona-
BILE uptown churches on the 18th inst. The bride
and bridegroom Immediately started for Washing
ton, and intend to spend the honeymoon on
Southern tour. This pleasant little affair has
created quite an excitement among the young la.
dies in upper tendon, and is to them far more
interesting than the Bond street tragsdy.-N. Y,

For month past the Methodist Society at
Richmond have been holding meetings with a
view OF changing mems evil ways and enlisting
large number on the Saviour's side. All efforts
appeared as the works of men. God seemed to
be not there, though loudly called on to let down
lire from Heaven to light up the Offering upon the
altar. The brethren were about to turn their
backs upon the cause and each return to his
worldly vocation, when the spirit suddenly ap-
peared-not in the midst, but in neighboring
saloon, the very last place where the angel OF
mercy in the form Of Gods spirit is ever thought
to 90. Some half score of the DEVILS regulars
met in Webber's saloon, and organized mock
class meeting. They read chapter. sang hymn
and knelt down, arms resting on a long bench,
prayed fervently, and with loud responses and
anens became as noisy as genuine meeting
They passed the glass Of spirits aud plate of GIN
ger bread from one to the other while kneeling,
gave thanks and went ont. But strange feeling
haunted the breast of each, not of shame before
man, for conscience towards man was stranger
there-not exactly Of penitence and remorse, for
the hard and stony heart of him whose soul is
supplied by regular positions of rot-gut cannot
feel intensely but Of deep and overwhelming
wrong against tibet God whom the in6del fears,
and whom the devils believe in and tremble before.
The breast of each became troubled with a
load of guilt which only an outraged God can re-
move. Next evening, the church made room for
them, the very last ones ever hoped for. Thus it
is, the chosen of God are saved BY means that
are unknown to any, save him who created and
moulds things to his own liking. Wh:oso believes
not in revealed religion, believes in God Of
Nature who creates and governs as he will, and
that will not be triaed with nor Knocked with inn
punity. Therefore mock not.-Grant Co. Her.

In 1881, at Rediuth, in England, as worthy
pastor, late in the twilight, was returning from .
visit 70 his flock, he saw before him strange
nondeecript, az largo us a black ram, with eyes
flashing fire, and Breathing very hard, running fu-
rioasly toward his shins. Providentiaily, he
sprang aside and before the assailant could stop
and turn upon him. he had run such q distance
as gave hope of deliyerance, when he came full
till against man running in an opposite direc-
ton.

SPY Jove., exclaimed the stra niger, show far

The tone of the question, and the COMPANY OF
human creature, in some measure dispelled the
fright of the faithful man, and admonished him
that he, if any one, should have the courage 10
face the mower Of darkness; SO he turned and ran
after the steamer, who he thought by mistake
had taken the wrong direction. They soon came
nm to their object of pursuit, which had got into
a ditch aud was roaring terri6cally. The stran-
GER. to the astonishment of the parson, seized and
dragged the fiery monster to the road. au.
sShe's got away from me, Sir; I was giving
her "A try, a bit OF rum
..Oh goodness Well, she is yours, them
Pray, what is she Z,
"A steamer. Sir call her. She is o little ex-
pertinent of mine, got up to try whether Mr..
Watts idea of running coaches ny steam can be

of pumping engines for Boulton and Watt, in the
mines hereabouts."
Great WAS the relief and satisfaction of the
worthy pastor on discovering that what he mag
ined something broke loose from an unsafe place,
was but bit Of honest mancraft; lunstic con-
ceit, it might be; but harmless except when it
ran away and might brighten children and per-
haps hurt them. 2aoa e
This miniature engine was the first embodiment
of the idea of the locomotive by steam.

The Found or of Yale College.

Elihu Yale, the founder of Yale College in New
Haven, died in l724, and was buried at the Church
in Wrexham, Wales. His monument, plain al
tar tomb, bears this inscription; .a.rae1 v
Born in America, in Europe bred, mad =, :.
In Africa travelled, in Asia wed:
Where long he lived and thrived, in London dead.
Much good, some i'll, he did; so hope all's even
And that his soul, thro' mercys gone to Heaven.
You that survive and read this tate, lake care, -
For this most certain exit to prepare,
Where blessed in peace, the actions of the Just
Smell sweet and blossom in the silent dust.
1t is recorded that Mr.. Yale went out to the
East Indies from this country as an adventurer,
and becoming wealthy, obtained the Presidency
Of Madras, and isisaid to have ruled with a most
oppressive authority. He caused his groom to
be hanged for riding out a favorite horse with
out leave. For this murder he was ordered to
England, where he was tried for the crime, but
by some means escaped punishment except a
heavy fine. ''aS ~ ~ bna 9

Improvements ON the Levee.

Few Of our citizens really comprehend the
amount Of building which is now in progress on
our levee. We walked along the line of prepara-
dence and judgment of our Commission Mer-
chants, we should certainly look upon the present
arrangements, as runously extravagant, and the
proprietors as hopelessly demented. But We
know them to be sound on the question of fnan-
ciering, SO conclude that something will happen
during the coming summer to justify their course.
MIR. j. W. Simpson is building an addition to
his warehouse now occupied by Chas. W. WOOL
ley. This extention will be 40x4O, two stories
high and built of stone. r. G. Knox is putting
up warehouse also, below Jackson street.
Messrs. Borup and Champlin have commenced ex-
cavations for extention in front of their pres
ent warehouse, 40x5O feet, and to be construct
We understand that the present structure is to
he removed next Fall, and the new building ex-
tended 150 feet back. sdJe Doe q
On the West side Of Sibley street, between
Third and the Levee, Messrs. Day and Grace are
erecting four magnificent stone stores, to be used
for wholesaling and general commission. These
will be three stories high, and will be an Or
nament to that portion of the city. Messrs. Mad
den & Co. are now building two story ware
house 40x6S for Mr.. Beaupre on the Levee, west
of jackson street. Mr.. VIM. Constance has COM
menced a wooden building near his present ware
house to increase the accommodations OF storage.
Another 30x40 feet is constructing by MIR. Cakes.
Louis Roberts is erecting substantial building
for storing goods, the levee near the termina-
ton of hobart street. J. W. Bass & Co., are en-
largiug their facilities by adding a new stone
building 40xl00 feet, to be completed during the
summer. The projected improvements exceed
those Of any previous year, but We think the bu-
siness viii be fully commensurate with the extern
sive preparations. Tia first boat will be in pext
week (?)-and then for the accommodating work
of busy season.
