MARYLAND decentralization of 0ticers.-At
the monthly meeting which takes place this eve
ming at the Institute the annual election of officers
will be held. We regret to learn that s. Sands
Esq, who has filled most acceptaby the office of
President during the past year, and who has long
been distinguished for the and active interest
which he has taken in the success of the ms ttute
declines denomination for another term.
FROM THE WEST INDIEs.-By the arrival of the
brig Los Amigos, Capt. Brownies, at New York,
we have Kingston, Jamaica, papers of the 2lst of
February. The editor complains earnestly about
Jamaica being excluded from participation in the
distribution of captured Africans to be sent to the
West Indies from Sierra Leone and St. Helena
Emigrants from India are expected during the
month.
The steamer Neo York, which arrive at New
York on Sunday, brought only the mails from
Bremen, those from England and France having
been put on board the Saxon, which put into ST.
johns. They will probably reach that city to-day.
PROF. LOVE, THE GREAT EUROPEAN MAGICIAN AND
VENTRHoQUIsT, who has been drawing crowded
houses at Washington, will shortly make his ap-
pearance in this city.

The VIRGINIA LEGIsLATURE.-Both branches of
the General Assembly of Virginia, on Monday,
by very decided majorties, passed resolutions ex-
tending the session to the end of the Constitutional
term, April I'd. A message was received from
Gov. Letcher, urging the continuance of the
session until that time. In the Senate the resolu-
lions concerning the revolutionary claims of Vir-
ginia on the General Government, were laid on the
table. In the House, the Senate bill imposing ad-
ditiona penalties parties convicted of trafcking
or dealing with slaves and free negroes, was

REMBRANDT PEALE.-We learn that this distin-
guished artist has so far recovered from his late
illness, which confined him in StOnington, Connec-
ticut, to be able to return to his home in Phila-
delphia. Mr. Peale is now in the eghtv-third
year of his age and friend informs US that he saw
him in his studio last Friday, commencing another
copy of his celebrated portrait of Washington the
original having been painted from life in 1885 Mr.
Peale attributes, in great measure, the preserva-
ton OF his life during his late severe illness to the
Kindness of the citizens of Stonington, who during
his stay there, loaded him with every attention
and civility. The most refined and prominent
people OF the city visited him, sat up with him,
and sent him delicacies and presents. When able
to leave, sixteen men of wealth and position form
ed themselves into escort, and on their own
shoulders, carried Mr.. Peale. in an easy chair
from his room to the depot, four of them convey
ing the venerable painter by turns, their compan-
ions alternating with them in the self imposed task
This reminds one of the honors paid to Titan in
his old age, centuries ago.-N. Y. Post.
The PERILs OF BALLooNING.-Pr Professor Wells
the 9eronaut, attempted to make an ascension in
his balloon at Wetumpka, Alabama, on the Sd
instant, and narrowly escaped death. The balloon
having been inflated, he stepped into the basket
and gave the word to ''et go'' and was not obeyed
but Immediately afterwards, when he was not
ready, they did ''let 60" and the wind blow
ing from the west, the balloon, with lightning
speed, was borne upwards, he swaying forward
and back, with but one foot in the basket 1t first
struck wood pile, then fence, then the side of
Coosa Hall Kitchen, then the caves OF the Kitchen
knocking off the shingles, and afterwards the
of the Coosa Hail. when it threw him some feet
from the basket, and he dangled in the air, hold
ing mainly by his hands to the ropes. With great
presence of mind, on arriving just over Coosa Hail.
while some eight feet from the roof, he swung
loose from the balloon and dropped on the roof
Had he not done this he would have been borne in
to the air, and a horrid death would have awaited
him, as he was holding by his hands, whose
strength must soon have given out. Alarge crowd
was present, anxious to the sion, and all
were greatly relieved when he alighted safely.
GLOVE RULES THE CoURT."-A jury in Texas lately
acquitted man on the charge of horse-stealing,
although the crime was clearly proven against him.
simply because he stole the horse to elope with his
sweetheart, who was present in court during the
trial, and waiting to marry him if acquitted The
jurors h d probably all been in love themselves at
one period another of their lives, and there was
not perhaps of them but would have done
the same thing, in their younger days, if they
couldn't have got their wives without.

Courting in Cold Weather. Boston
Courier, OF the 3lst ultimo, tells the follow
ing good one:
Everybody hereabOutS knows that it was
biting cold here last Wednesday night, ana
keeping warm WAS no joke Oi jab. Every
body also kn0"s that, u the 1.-TWO evenings
week" allowed by New England custom for
lovers meetings, that OF Wednesday is one.
Well, it happened on Wednesday night last,
that young man OF orr acquaintance called
to see his dear Susan. The old folks retired
at an early hour, and left the young folks in
possession OF the parior, large room, deco
rated, but no. comfortable but still possess
ing call the modern improvements. Among
these were two dingy registers in the place
where the cheerful CRATES ought to be. AS
the night wore on, the fire wore out, and
pretty soon the lovers became conscious OF
the cold. The naiden's little fingers were
positively chilled, and frederick'S toes were
numb. There was no use in trying 30 dis
guise matters any longer, Miss, Susan must
drop her Maraposa, and Master Freddy must
do mans part in the emergency. He rolled
the paternal armchair in front of one Of the
iron faces in the chimney, in the hope that
its warm bEeath might restore vivacity to his
charmer, and then covered her shoulders
with shawls. He then proceeded to take care
OF himself, and after budding himself in such
things as were lying round loose in the par
lor, placed himself IN front of the register in
the other chimney. AS the young couple
were some distance apart, conversation be-
tween them was inconvenlent, if not impos-
sible, and the result was they fell into sound
sleep, and thus they slept and dreamed, and
dreamed and slept, till daylight, when they
were discovered and aroused by Biddy Muir
ply, the nursery maid, who, upon seeing
a.
you'd hetther be dreaming ashleep than
awake" 1t is needless to add that BiddS
received brides; but Miss Susan could not
keep her secret.

A Double ElOpement in New
York

A well to DO farmer from Columbia c0uu-
ty, went to New ! erS a short time since, to
reclaim a daughter who had run away from
his domicile, with young husband, whose
throat the atfectionate old gentleman had
threatened to cut from ear to ear. 1t seems
that the mother--tbe widowed m0ther-of
this fugacious son-in-law was once youthful
sweetheart Of the said old gentleman, and
Tilted him in peculiarly cruel manner, and
hence his hatred of her son, and his wrath
when be found that his only daughter, whose
dying mother had coniided to his teuderest
care, had married that son, and his threat to
cut that sons throat.
The ireia father in law had but little dit
ilculty in finding the boarding house OF tie
youthful pair, but was deferred from visiting
them by learning that they We're guarded by
the widow herself, his old and faithess be
trothed. After much skirmishing, however,
he one day ventured to ring at the door when
he supposed the widow had gone out, and was
ushered into the parlor where the widow
herself was sitting. With deep frown he
turned to retire, but was detained BY small
hand laid gently apon his arm. 1t was the
widows hand. They acre soun 'eated-not
far apart. Explanation was satisfactory.
She always loved him. Why was he so rash
as to marry another before she had time to
explain.
1t ,cos rash, he admitted; nay, more-it
was acrong-aud he was not the man to let
wrong be unrighted if he could right 1t; so
there be was, old to be sure, but tough and
rich, and having much life and service in him
yet. Would she help him to set matters
right OF course she would She was not
the one to bauik the intentions OF repentant
sinner. But what would tne young folks say
ono matter" said the tough old fellow, 'we
will clone: we have as good a right to as
