. Chance Tor Future ProsDeritv.

The Boston Adrertiser, in the course
OF. aneartiele dis cussing the. condition of
the temporary pressure of the money
market says that sit is at suchtimes IS
the present that men of soberness and
foresight, if tn ey are possessed of even
a-httle solid capital, may lay the foun-
datlon for future prosperity. 1t cannot
be doubted, that many securities of in
trinsie excellence. are now selling in the
market at far below their actual value.
The keen sighted man keeps aloof from
the e~xcitemcnts and the trickery of the
stock exchange, but watches his oppor-
tunity when the arts of the interested
have unduly depressed some stock whose
real value he knows, and at that mo-
ment he makes an investment which he
never regrets. 1t was when all Ameri-
can securities were cast down in the
market, from the unjust confusion of
good with bad, that George Peabody
made the beginning of that colossal for
tune.which he has proved he knows SO
we'll how to use. He made no secret,
indeed, of the true state of affairs, and
publicly as we'll as privately exerted him
self for the maintenance of American
credit. 1t was a sort of poetical justice
that rendered the investme nts by which
he proved to the world his confidence
in his. assertions, the means of his OWE
exceeding great reward, in a pecuniary
returns A. similar reward awaits all
those who avail themselves of the chan
ccs ofshe time to make purchases of val-
liable stock, not for the purpose eff tenn
porary speculation, adding fuel to the
fame of excitement, but for the pur-
poses of permanent investment, with
drawing from the fire some of the com
bustible material, and leaving in its stead
the solid money, which by its mere
presence, ceases the tightness of the mar
ket and which cannot be made to lose
its chicanery."

The Struggle i'm India--ViewS of
the London Times.

The London Times, of September
21st, in an article on, the East India in
surrection, says: ..-. s..--
The struggle in India resolves itself
with terrible simplicity into a single
question-that of time-of time mea-
sured not by years or seasons, but by
weeks, and even days. Can our coun,
trymen hold out till succors reach them
against the raging fends around?-
There is not a doubt about our ultimate
asccndency-about the re-conquest, if
necessary; of all India, step by step, and
province by province. In the volumes
of correspondence reaching. u from all
quarters and expressing every shade Of
! opinion, VIC have never yet met with a
single misgiving about, the eventual is
sue of the contest. India will be Brit
ish, and British will be its lords, cstab-
lished in greater strength and dignity
than cvef-such is the keynote of In
dian opipion even in the crisis of peril,
and the very men who hold their lives

destinies a single day may disclose, rely

Last degree misplaced. That we are

We cannot, however, pretend to dis
guise the severity with which time must
still press upon our beleaguered garri-
sons. For weeks to come, at the very
least, every European detachment in
the Northwestern Provinces must re-
present. one man against fifty; and it is
impossible to say, with these sporadic
eruptiops Of mu;iny, what fresh de-
mands may not be created upon the
fresh forces which arrive. A month
hence We may find a new Delhi in Ben
gal. til clear that we want troops to

as to dispatch to the Upper; and till
the great reinforcements arrive, the
deadly struggle for time must go on with

The Coachman who Married his Governor's
Daughter Settled

Young Dean, the lucky coachman, has fn-
ally agreed to give up his wife for time,
and accept the pecuniary offers of her friends.
Yesterday his counsel received letter from
MIR. Bokar's lawyer, proposing that Dean
should go into business in one Of the western
cities-capital being provided bi Mr. Boxer
and that he should consent to be separa-
ted from his wife for the period of six mouths,
correspondence being allowed during that
time. Dean is wiihRg to accept the PROPOSE
ton, and thus the subject is disposed of for
the present at least
A correspondent thinks we have not done
Rev.. Mr. Hatfield justice in our structures up
on his shae i'm bringing about this hasty and
iil-assorted marriage. Indeed, after hearing
Ms Esathelfs own statement. one is only dis
posed to blame our loose laws on the subject
that requires no publication of an Intended
marriage. He describes Mr. Dean as of pre-
possessing appearance, gentleDianly address,
and with nothing about him. to show that he
was of Irish origin but the slightest possible
brogue.
Mr.. Dean called at his house on Tuesday,
the oath of last February, and inquired if Mr..
IL. would on the following Saturday tie the
marriage Enot for him. Mr.. III. assented.-
On Saturday Mr.. Dean presentey himself and
said Ills intended bride, who was engaged as
servant in a gentleman's family close by had
been unable to perfect her arrangements, and
it was necessary to postpone the marriage
until the coming Tuesday. TO this Mr.. III.
agreed, appointing the time of day for the
bridal party to call. Tuesday came and The
minister held himself in readiness to perform
the ceremony, but he waited and they did
not appear. Towards evening, however,
Deans friend came TO the house and told the
servant, that owing to the storm of the pre-
ceding day the young lady had been unable
to finish up her household duties, and as she
wanted to remain in her place soretim.
longer she did not wish her marriage known,
but that they would come the next day.
Wednesday morning came and the couple,
also, and their two witnesses with them. Miss
Boxer was dressed as became her assumed
station, not in silk and hoops, nor sparkling
with diamonds. Mr.. Dean vas neatly attired
| and acted like a weil-bred gentleman rs
the day was muddy, and HIS parlors had but
lately been furnished with new carpets, 1t was
deemed prudent that the ceremony should be
performed in the basement, which was a cosy
enough place, and there the marriage took
place. At its conclusion, Dean took from his
purse a roll of bills, from which detaching
", he delicately passed it over, politely in
quring if that would satisfy the clergyman.
Mr.. H. bowed an affirmative, and the happy
party left, Mr.. Ii. remarking to his wife that
the lady had evidently the best of the bar
gain. He thought no more of the matter, till
his attention was called to it on Tuesday last
from the statements in the papers, when he
found that, instead, as he had supposed, of
making a poor servant girl happy, he had
probably made a wealthy family miserable.
