MARRIAGES OF ENGLISH PRINcEssEs GEN
ERALLY UNHAPPY.-''Give me neither riches
nor poverty said wise and good man. The
unfortunate character OF the marriages of most
princesses, the very persons who might be
supposed to have the greatest chances of hap
piness, is one out of the many proofs of the
deep knowledge of life embodied in that say
ing.
Especially have English princesses, as we
are reminded by the late marriage of the
Princess Royal, been unlueky in their matri-
monial connections. More particularly is this
true of the princesses of the House of Hanoi
yer. To go back to Sophia, daughter of
George the First, who married the first VIM.
Frederick of Prussia, she, poor thing was
almost daily beaten by her husband, a man
whose brutality amounted almost to insanity
Once she was nearly killed by him with her
daughter, and often was in imminent fear for
her life.-He denied her, sometimes, even the
common necessaries of life. She used to saw
sarcnstically, in her old age, that the only
kind words he ever addressed to hey, were
"Sophia, get up and see me de-
The eldest daughter of George the Second
made match only less unhappy. She was
twenty four before she married at all ; and
then had to take the deformed Prince of
Orange, because he was the only Protestant
prince in Europe of suitable age. Her father
expostulated with her on the maformaton Of
her proposed bridegroom. "Were he Dutch
baboon," she answered, tired out with her
position at home, "l'd marry him." 1t was
the custom Of that coarse age for a bride and
groom, on the nuptal evening, to sit up in
bed in costly night dresses, to receive the
compliments Of their friends On this occas-
ion as the royal family and nobility defed
past the Prince and Princess, who were mag
nihcent in lace and silver, the Queen, tho
BRIDES own mother, declared that when she
looked at the bridegroom from behind he
seemed to have no head. and when she looked
at him in front, she could not, for the life of
her, tell where his legs were. Wulpole, or
Henry, we forget which, records the anecdote.
The Princess lived to regret her maiden con.
dition at her fathers court, even with all the
neglect that attended it,
Another daughter of George the Second
married the Landgrave of Hesse, the same
who afterwards sold his soldiers to England,
in order TO assistin cong uering these colonies.
He was so brutal that his W ife at last had to
desert him and seek refuge in her native
country. A third married the King Of Den.

insulting her IN the presence Of an unprno-
Piled woman, who shared what no had of af-
lection. She died, partly of broken heart,
partly Of cruel disease, at the early age of
twenty. seven. The melancholy story Of the
Princess Charlotte, the only child of George
the Fourth, is Of so late date that it is fam

only in it's carly and fatal termination; for

Gbe DaIIp SPg.


The greatest mistake made by Gen. Cushing
in bis speech on Wednesday, in the House.
against the removal of Judge Loring, was, in the
position assumed by him in the course of his ar
eument, that the judicial Office should be, and is.
by the constitution. an office independent and
above the reach Of the people. and its incumhents
not removable by them or their representatives.
Such an unfortunate assumption is refuted at
on ., by rel, renee to the State Constitution it,
self, which says in the Bill of Rights, art.
"An power residing originally in the people,
and being derived nom them, the several msgis-
trates ard officers of government vested win au-
thoIity whether legislative executive, orJ"a'c'at
their substitutes and agents, aua are al al
mes accountable to them"
Accordingly, while by the constitution the va
rious judicial officers appointed in the govern
or are to hold office during good behavior, ex-
press provision is made by that instrument
by which the Judges are made accountable to the
people for the manner of their administration of
their Offices by giving the executive authority to
remove them, on being requested so TO do by ad'
dresses of both branches of the Legislature.
Mr.. Gushing also erred egregiousIy in repre-
senting the adrocltes OF the removal to be con-
fined 10 hanotul OF 'Idhatlcs' iePleseHteu "
those he termed 'monomaniac of treason and
dfsu non, William Lloyd Garrison" and a 'half
demeuted negro who had had the misfortune to
lose his master = al lding to the speakers at the
hearing given by the committee on the Judge
Loring matter.)
On the contrary, the great mass of the people
of the State demand the removal, and will sustain
the action Of the Legislature and Governor in
concentrating it.

store OF James Marsden, and paying him
50 bill, received what he supposed to be S4,-

over his pile and discovered $50 bill, which
had been paid to him by mistake for 81. He
was reJoeed at what he considered his "good
luck, and having invested small portion of
his money in clothing, placed the balance
under his pillow and went to sleep. No
sooner had he resigned himself to the in
huence OF the "drowsy god,' than his wife
carefully distracted the money from under his
head, and left for parts unknown. He be-

New HAMPSHIRE ELECTIoN.-The latest re-
turns of the popular vote in New Hampshire in
dictate Republican majority rising of 5000. All
the Republican State officers are elected as well
as all the Republican candidates for Councillors
The returns of the Legislature are not yet
complete. 1t is probable that the Republicans
have gained in both branches. The Ne1 Hamp-
shire Patriot (Democrat), in luguorious article
upon the result, says
1.-THE battle is over; the election yesterday
resulted in the triumph of black Republicanism
by an increased majority in the popular vote.
This result was not unexp ected BY we'll informed
men, although many of our friends hoped for one
more favorable to their cause. From the returns
we give it appears that the black Republican ma.
iority will be about 5000, being nearly 1000 more
than it was last year. The increase of their ma
jority has been made by like increase of their
vote, the Democrats having cast full as many
votes as last year, and we think a few more.
This defeat of the Democracy is sufficiently
overwhelming to satisfy most bitter oppo-
nenls even the latest renegade must feel content
with it. At the same time, when the palpable
cause Of il is considered, 1t presents no occasion
for dependency on the part of true and intelli-
gent Democrats. No one can fail to see the
csuse-all admit it. The Kanzas question has
again crushed us with its pondeTous, blind, un-
reasoning power. Before the Lecompton Consti-
tuition question was brought before the country,
our prospects for success were highly hattering
our triumph seemed to be certain, That matter
with the course of the Administration upon it
fell like a wet blanket upon the rising courage
and earnest zeal OF our friends, and from that daI
we we're doomed; our defeat was certain and ap
parent to ali well informed persons"

duct Of the Administration hounds. If Toombs

is not likely to prove troublesome to Mr., Douglas
in the Kanzas debate, for he lies quite I'll at his
