A day or two since we were informed
Of an instance of extreme meanness.
which as our informant vouches for the
absolute correctness Of his statement,
ought to be recorded as an illustration
that sober fact sometimes outstrips the
images of fiction. In brief, the state
ment is this. In a small town not far
from this city, a "well to-do" business
man, noted for his parsimonious habits
,won,the heart of lady of his neighbor-
hood, and the preliminaries having been
arranged, the wedding took place. 4
large party were invited. who discussed
an excellent supper and celebrated the
,nuptial ceremonies at the bridegroom
house by a dance, in which the happy
couple participated. At last. as the
evening was passing away the fair bride
took leave Of her guests but not SO the
husband who proceeded coolly to asses,
the bridal party three dollars each fol
the expenses Of the supper. and finished
the entertainment by haggling with tw'
,olored iiddlers wbo had furnished thu
.ausic for the dance.

The Celebrated Yacht America. lie
onard w. Jerome. of New York, has been
bargaining for the purchase of the yacht
America. the c,nqueror at the exhibition
at London in 1851. The yacht was
bought from Stevens. of Hoboken, her
builder. by Lord De Blaquiere, who sold
her to Lord Templeton, who in turn sold
to the Pritchards, shipbuilders at North
Fleet, on the Thames, two miles above
Gravesend. Lord Templetown sunk
it by accident near the yard of the Prit-
chards. and it was only after she had
lain in that condition for some time that
she was bought by these gentlemen. 1t
is probable that the sum paid for her was
insignificant, but Lord Templetown has
asked for and obtained the first promise
for purchase after she has again been
put in repair. Jerome, who is spending
the Winter in Paris, lately visited the
yard of the Pritchards to inspect the
boat, and he found her on the stocks in
the workmen's hands, undergoing COM
pletc repairs from top to bottom. More
than half the timbers of her keel were
found to be rotten, and are being repla-
ced; but they are restoring her exactly
upon the original model-not line OF
her keel is to be changed. When finish
cd and rugged she is to stand precisely
as she did the day ofhe great race. If
Lord Templetown does not insist upon
the re-purchase of the boat, and it is
thought he will not, the Pritchards will
accept the terms offered by Jerome. If
bought by him she will be brought back
to the United States.

THis,sa Queer Wnld.---The following
eloquent passage closes the Baccalaure-

President of the South Carolina College
at Columbia, to the recent graduating
class:
You arc embarking upon a strange
world. my young friends. 1t banished
Aristides, poisoned Socrates. murdered
Cicero, and crucifed the Lord of Glory.
The spirit of I'hemistocles, of Melitus,
of Anthony and Caiphas is still in the
world-greatly subdued and law bound
to be sure. but not extinguishe4, You
may expect, therefore, at times to be
depressed by your rivals, condemned for
your patriotism, and tormented for your
benefactions to have your confidence
.bused, your integrity derided, and to
suffer a thousand impositions in smaller
matters-from those from whom you had
a right to expect better things. These
are hard things to bear, say you. They
are so, my young friends. and you W II
never bear them as you should. unless
you take the good book for your guide,
and look only to its anthor for supplies
of strength sufficient for your tlial. Do
this, and all will be we'll at last. With
that chart in your hand nov launch your
bark upoa the troubled ocean of life /;
and when the squalls strike you, be at
least as prpdent as tie common sailor,
and be found at the helm, with your
chart before yau. and your eye fixed on
BethIehem's star.

Senator Broderick.-A correspondent
Of the New Orle ans Crescent. who had
travelled in company with Senator Brod-
erick from New Orleans to Tehuante-
pee, writing from the latter place, says:
Senator Broderick is remarkable
man, and his words must always carry
weight. The people Of the Atlantic
States will know him better than they
do, before his senatorial career expires
in 1864. In conversation With him he
came out with his political views very
plainly and eoncisely. He does not
think an extra session Of Congress will
be called, but ifthe President does con-
vene an extra session he does not intend
to attend it. His design is to superintend
the fall elections in his own State, and
this is like saying that Slidell manages
in Louisiana. only Broderick is stronger
in his State than Slidell Is at home. He
goes into the coming contest with the
avowed intention of "crushing out" Bu-
chanism from the golden State and what
he determines on there is no telling how
he will accomplish. His opinion of the
Government is most fearful, for corrup-
ton exists in every department Of it from
the head to the foot. Such is the SEN
timent of man who has many ways of
finding out the truth, and he will tell
some rare secrets in the political canvass
into which he is about to enter.

VALUABLE BUILDING STONE.-The
Observer says there is very peculiar
volcanic formation in tho city of Pla-
cerville, which is now being extensively
used as a building material. By exper-
iment, it has been demonstrated that this
rock, if rock it may be called. though
quito soft when first taken from the
quarry, becomes harder when exposed
to the air. 1t cannot be injured by fire
and is an excellent material for building
the fues of furnaces, Odd Fellows
Hall, and many other valuable houses
in Placerville, are constructed of this
material. The most novel purpose to
which it has been applied, is the con-
struction of tobacco pipes.
