On THE "DEcLINE."-Why is it? During
the month of September there were only
eight marriages. Whose fault is this ? While
the fair sex are not ''ouer" anxious to visit
the "altar hymenial," we have our suspicion
that they are to blame, for we feel assured
that the young men of Norfolk are incapable
of resisting the many charms of the female
sex of our city. t
If this is the case, however, any handsome,
intelligent, and industrious ffdamseJ" may
consider us ''in market" Drop us line,

t'TAKEN IN."-While making our usual
ailyperegrenations yesterday evening, like
''Don Quicot," in quest of adventure" we
were attracted by a rapidly gathering crowd
which seemed to centre at the corner of
Market space and Union Street. We FASTENED
thither in hopes of being able to chronicle
murder, suicide or some other horrible
calamity Otis our bread and butter, dear
reader) Upon reaching the "scene of ac-
ton" we found five full-grown specimens
of countryfied masculine humanity pceping
and prying into the basement which is occu-
pied by our young townsman Manning as
restaurant. We pnshedand elbowed our way
through the crowd-asked, begged, and en-
treated to know ,chat scas the understanding
that some scene of blood was being enacted;
and having immediate visions Of witness
stands, Judges, Jurors and legal gentlemen,
we waited outside and took up our position
.on our knees by the countrymen, to get a
peep, glimpse, or gratuitoiis sight, of the foul
play. We looked, and peeped, and peeped,
and looked, and like the Dogeof Venice, "was
much moved" Though we moved not yet
saw nothing, heard nothing. Feeling our
spirits revive, possibly by being in close
proximity to Manning's Spirits, and feeling
that this entire community ard Portsmouth,
"to boot" had right to know what aoas
going on in ''the cellar" we "aoaded in,"
followed by the anxious crowd, saw the
countrymen who still remained upon their
knees. We found all quiet and nothing going
on, except that a gentleman from Africa was
quietly picking q choking in the back room.
We subsequently, learned that the country
men were looking at the PICTURES, and found
we, our local self, had been sold. So kind
reader we have give our experience in the
matter, and made an item.

Fourth Of July Grafton.
BY JOHN PHOENIX.

During the action, Washington might
have been seen driving up and down the
lines, exposed to deadly fire in small
Concord wagon, drawn by a bob-tailed
gray horse. His celebrated dispatch.
" reni. ridi, uici," or. came and saw in
Concord wagon, has reference to this
circumstance.
Washington has been called the father
OF his country, ian unapt title. more prop
erly belonging to the late MIR. McClusky,
parent of the celebrated pugilist,) the
child has grown, however, to that extent
that its father would not know it. Gen
eral Walker. (William Walker) is also
called the Father of Nicaragua, and we
have no doubt, in case of his demise, his
children, the native Nicaraguans. would
erect suitable monument over his re-
mains, with the inscription, Go father,
and fare worse
Washington was member of the Know
Nothing order, and directed that none
but Americans should be put on guard
which greatly annoyed the Americans,
their comfort being entirely destroyed by
perpetual turns of guard duty.
He was twice elected President of the
United States by the celebrated Wing
and Know Nothing parties, the Demo-
Gratis and Abolitionists voting against
him, and served out his time with great
credit to himself and the country, draw
ing his salary with regularity and pre-
cision worthy of all commentator.
Although, for the time IN which he
lived. very distinguished man, the igno-
rance of Washington is something perfect
ly incredible. He never travelled on
steamboat; never saw a railroad, or To-
comotive engine, or steam coach was
perfectly ignorant of the principle of the
magnetic telegraph never had daguer-
reotype, Colts pistol, Sharp's rifle or
used friction match. He ate his meals
with an iron fork, never used postage
stamps on his letters, and knew nothing
of the application of chlorofo. m to allevi-
ate suffering, or the use of gas for illumi-
nation. Such a man as this could hardly
be elected a President of the United
States in these times, although it must be
confessed, we occasionally have a candi-
date who proves not much better inform
ed about matters in general.
Washington died from exposure on the
summit of Mount Vernon, in the year
1856, leaving behind name that will en-
dure forever, if posterity persist in calling
their children after him to the same ex-
tent that has hitherto been fashionable
He is mentioned in history as having
been first;inpeace, first in war, and first
in the hearts of his countrymen; in other
words, he was No. in everything, and
it was equally his interest and his pl>2s-
ure to look out for that number, and he
took precious good care to do So A
portrait by Gilbert Stuart of this soldier
and Statesman may be seen very badly
engraved on the " History of the United
States," but as it was taken when the
general was in the act of chewing tobac-
CO, the left cheek is distended out of pro-
portion. and the likeness rendered very
unsatisfactory.
