called his wife. Thus far they have net
seen each other But she says if he
doesn't come to time she will publish all
the tender love letters he sent when he
was "sweet on her." aud that is what lots
of people would exactly like to read
Were you ever informed of the important
fact that Hecnan was born in the United
States Arsenal, at Watervlict2 That is so.
His father was an employee of our nation
al uncle, and while ut work in the gunnery
way, invented some improvement in the
manufacture of percussion caps, for which
be was awarded, and still receives, a small
annual annuity from the Government
His plan for his son John was to educate
the young man to professorship of black
sruithiug. but the offspring bolted the ar
rnngement; wouldn't do it at any price,
and, having somewhat of a Bayard Taylor
ish propensity, struck out ms traveller,
and went to California. His career there
and since has been freely ventilated in the
papers. He called on the writer of these
presents day or two since, and, among
other circumstances alluded to, in connec-
tion with his notable interview with
Sayers, ut Farnsborough, stated emphat-
ically that his eyes were never closed in
consequence of blows received from that
functiOnary.

1t is an uuwise thing to give offence to

The Result in Vermont.

We have to announce in this weeks paper tbe nleasant result of certain local canvass we have watched with interest, namely the marriage ofa fair cousin in the Green Mountain State the first in the generation to which ourselves le ultimately belong, the second, to wit, from the late J.. B-.of Norfolk. We hereby ac cord the consent of the kinsman nearest in age of the same degree, and tender oar felicitations to the honorable bridegroom. May his whis kers never be less!
 But we learn, in addition, that this domestic event was preceded and heralded, on Monday evening of the same week in Middlebury, by . brilliant celebration of the late Republican vic tory. There was busy rain through the even ing, but the principal houses were illuminated some of them upon the square very beautifully the torchlight procession formed on the high ground by the courthouse, the burst of music which led them, clearing away the gloom of the rain, the mist itself giving color to the scene, and the drops catching brightness. The train of near three hundred torches passed through the principal streets, over the college grounds and returned at last to be dismissed in front of the Addison House. The fremen marched in their uniform, claimed to be the most efficient compsny in the state; transparencies were car. ried; the chief marshal more than sixty years old, graceful military man, led on foot, and in the ranks was veteran with flowing gray hair, of seventy-fve years his step as quick as that of the youthful freeman, grandson running at his side. The people were in the line. The dis play was beautiful as enthusiastic, presenting peculiarly mild effect in some glimpses of it at distance, from the accompaniment of the rain. A supper followed, our acknowledged friend and cousin JOHN W. STEWART, EsQ., presiding, rea- ronable feast and feast of reason, with music, speeches, toasts and merriment at which all seemed jubilant.
 Secession in Vermont is not so much as visitor in their tea The victory is with the star that never sets, 80 that besides celebrating they intend to keep it. Disunion quotha We are not surprised to learn that in week so we'll begun, on three succeeding days, the morning train for the South took three successive bridal parties from Middlebury, and left some for Thanksgiving. The Green Mountain Boys are coming.

This is a face to which challenge contradiction from any quarter Nay. more, it is true of South Caroli- ma. l heard only a few days ago, from one of our most estimable and reliable democratic citi- zens, that one of the most wealthiest, probably the wealthiest and largest slaveholder in the State of South Carolina, who is able to arm and equip at his own expense several regiments of soldiers was solicited by Mr. Rhett to give his support to the secession cause. His reply was this " Mr. Rhett, every one knows that be- gan life here poor man. made all my money in the Union, bought all mynegroes in the Union, raised all my cotton in the Union, sold it and got tue prOceeuS TOT It ID the U nlOn and think the Union is good enough for me. I desire to live ard die in the Union, and shall ;exhort my children to do the same." Mr. Rhett told this story himself to my informant.

 TIE NEGRO Acr" IN MARYLASplThe Bal. timore American of Friday says: "In all the counties in Maryland from which we have re- ceived returns in which the act for the enslave- ment of free negroes was submitted to the peo- pie, the voters have emphaticaly and signally denounced that unjust and unchristian law. The question has been met and decided without any reference to party politics, and the law is de- feated by majorities amounting almost to unan- unity. The result is greatly creditable to the counties in which the vote wss taken, and hon. orable to the State at large"
