"HIGH LIFE " IN n. Y-MARRIED HER FATHERS
CoACHMAN.-The " world above Blocker - was star
tied from its ~propriety the other day by the clandes-
tine marriage of a young lady of fashion and wealth
to her fathers coachman The two susceptible maiden
was Miss Mary Ann Cor Mariana Petronilia) Boxer,
daughter of a wel-known merchant in Front Street,
and John Dean is the name of the squire of low de-
gree. He Is an Glshman, with a brOgue, and n head
Slightly reddish, but not bad looking. His education
has been sadly neglected. Miss Boxer, that was, is
accounted handsome, and she has a fortune in her
own right which rumor rates all the way from $20,-
900 to 100000.
The attachment between Miss Mary Ann and John
has been Che says) of long duration. She frequently
took airings alone and Johns stalwart figure before
her on the driving box of her "Cerline !" at first
divided her attention with the crowd of her external
things, and at length filled her eye to the exclusion
of everything else. ('Oh Opportunity, thy guilt is
great!') After ~'kapping her company as John
says, for n year or more, the Boxer family appear to
have thought that Miss Mary.Ann was professionally
fond Of taking airings and some retraint was laid
upon her movements; but John was not discharged.
Finally, the young lady slipped out of the house one
day and accompanied her liveried swain to the house
of the Rev. DR.. Hatield-whou united them.
As soon as the family were appraised of this catas-
trophe, Miss Mary Ann was locked up in a back room
In the fourth story and put upon low diet, and her
brldegroom-having positively refused to go to Cali
fornia and start himself in business with CAPITAL to no
furnished him on condition of his forgetting his
Mary Ann and her fOrtune-was discharged. He
applied, however, for a writ, of he6eus corpus, but the
boxers on their side obtained an injunction super
cedlng the execution of the writ, and an order from
the Supreme Court appointing Mr.. Boxer the guardian
of his daughter for the purpose of commencing a suit
to annul the marriage on the plea of her insanity.
Wednesday, however, the family made an attempt to
put the young lady, under thescare of her mother, on
board the Persia, about to sail for Europe; but she
succeeded in sending information to John, and the
house 135 West Twenty-second street, was carefully
guarded day and night by the police. In consequence
of this attempt, the Supreme Court granted a new
writ of hebeas corpus. An immense crowd assembled
round the building anxious to see the bride. One or
two carriages containing ladies were stopped, and the
occupants found great difficulty in getting through
the press; they were subjected to the most impertinent
scrutiny. In the meanwhile, Mrs. DEAN had been
privately taken into the Court room. The case, how
ever, was adjourned till Monday.

THE HORSE: ITS VARIErIEs.-By Ike Partingtoa.
horse is a quadruped with four legs--two be-
hind and two before. He has a tail, which grows to
the hind part Of his body, that nature has furnished,
with which to drive away the flies. His head is sit
uated on the other end, opposite the tail, and is used
principally to fasteu a bride to him by, and to put
into a basket to eat oats with.
Horses are very useful animals, and people couldn't
get along very well without Internationally trnck-
men and omnibus drivers, who don't seem h5if ora to
full enough because they've got 'em. They are very
convenient animals in the country, in vacation time,
and go very fast through the country roads, when
the boys stick pins into them, a specie Of cruelty that
| won't encourage.
Horses are generally covered with red hair. though
some are white, and others grey and black. Nobody
ever saw a blue horse, which IS considered very
strange by eminent naturalists.
The horse is quite an Intelligent animal, and can
sleep standing up, which is very convenient, Specially
where there is a crowd and it is difficult to lay.
There are a great variety of horses-fast horses

SAN FRASCIsCO, January 10, 1856.
CAPT. e. BROwN-Sr: l take this opportunity to inform
you that we uset those Bomb Lances we bought of you, and
found them to be of gceat benefit in capturing whales amongst
the ice.
The flst Whale that we used the Bomb Lance on was killed
IN the following mamie The boat went alongside of the whale
and the boat-steerer fixed a Bomb into him and then fastened to
HIM with a gig iron: the Bomb was heard to explode, and the
whale DID not blow after The Bomb exploded. The aboYe-men-
toned whale was in the ice, and it is our opinion that we should
not have got that whale and many others that we did get, if it
ma not been ior y-dr Bomb Lances, and we fully recommend
them to the attention Of those fitting out whale ships.

AGooD LANGUAGE-Mr Schoolcraft says a marked
popularity of the Algonquin, the most cultivated of
the indian languages, is, that there are no oaths in
1t. Ihe Algonquin canIot swear. He cannot call
upon his God in any such manner, because the struc-
ture of his language fOrbids the name itself of the
Deity-being considered too sacred to be used at
all.
