NOVEL MARRIAGE.-A couple were mar.
ried by Justice Purdy yesterday, says the
Detroit Free Press Of the 26th instant, one
of whom was female, aged fifty eight, and
the other verdant-looking young man who
had apparently reached the mature age of
about eighteen. He maintained, and stuck
to it, that he was thirty-seven years old, and.
in order to make up the deficiency, she
brought her years down to forty-fve. The
dodge did not work, and, upon being infor-
med that they must make oaths to the facts,
they declined. and requested to be united
without any questioning. The young fellow
said he had no particular objection to telling
his age, but the lazy was captious. and re-
fused to divulge until she was informed that
she must give up all hope of possessing the
youngster as penalty. She said he didn't
amount to much as q man, but then he
would be handy to have around, and she
thought she might as well take him, q. she
had more money than she knew what to do
with, and wanted somebody tospend it: Tho
bridegroom looked as if he might fulfil the
duty with little training.

4 DOG EXPRESS.

Daniel Henshaw, Esq, recently read
very interesting paper on Statistics and
Anecdotes of Travels, before the New Eng
land Historic and Genealogical Society,
which has slrce been printed in the Gazette.
He states that before the establishment OF
stage lines, people were sometimes perplexed
for means Of transmitting messages and let
tiers of importance. On one such occasion,
the following very ingenious and extraordl-
nIry mode was adopted with entire success
"a family living over fifty miles from Boston,
who had removed from there few years before,
taking with them their favorite dog Rove, had
several times made their annual visit there, al
WAYS accompanied by the same faithful animal
The necessity of sending letter to Boston had
now become urgeut in the extreme, and indispen-
SADLY necessary yet there seemed no possible
way of transmitting 1t but by procuring some one
TO 20 on express, which at that time was next to
impossible " hile they were deeply perplexed
in contriving ways and means, some said
perhaps more in Jest than in earnest, ''send
Rover" Now Rover had proved himself on many
occasions intelligent and faithful beyond others Of
his race and the idea took at once. II was deci-
ded at auy rate to try the experiment Of sending
Rover az bearer Of dispatches, provided be could
be induced to undertake so arduous and hazardous
mission, The letter was accordingly prepared,
and while they were fastening it around his neck,
| the old dog would roll up his eyes in deep
thought, as if pondering on the magnitude and re-
snonsbilty of his charge, while he seemed to say,
az understand the business perfectly but dislike
| the undertaking, and must beg to be excused. =
| And when the criFis came, he did beg and plead
most piteously. But, after pointing to the East,
the command was peremptory-'go'-and away he
| went in GOOD earnest, not the old circuitous
t,aveIed road, but on bee line, lots, deter
mined 10 make short work Of it, and probably not
stoppipg for rest or refreshnent till he had reach
ed tbe place of destination, which was little be-
| fore daylight the next morning. There were two
houses in Boston not far apart, where the old dog
felt equally at home. He gave notice at the hrst
by bowling and scratching at the door but the
family, not understanding the purpOrt Of 90 unsea-
sonable call, refused 10 respond, and lie soon re-
paired to the other, where the surprise and as
tonishment at seeing the old dog with his message
was indescribablr. He was welcomed aud greeted
with as much joy and gadness as if he had beer

borhood. and Rover became the hon OF the day

DEATH IN A AFACToRY.-Saturday Goth, a
young woman, Henrietta Fuller by name,
aged about eighteen years, was killed in the
Satinett Factory of F. NJ. Bardwell Co.,
South Belchertown, Mass. While obtaining
water from cask that was near an upright
shaft and coupling box, which was revolving
at the rate of over one hundred revolutions
per minute, the dress of the unfortunate girl
became entangled. With every revolution
her head struck upon the strong iron frame
work which supported the regulator. Her
head was crushed, and her body and limbs
shockingly mangled and broken. The cask
and the ceiling were covered with the marks
of the catastrophe, and the body was SO firm
ly bound to the shaft that her steel skirts
were cut with chisels before she could be lib
Grated.

MIR. COLLAMER on KANSAS.

The House bill Tor the admission of Kansas
came up in the Senate on the 30th ult,
and its passage was urged by Mr.. Collamer
in clear and able speech. He claimed for
Kansas all the requisite elements for admis-
sion. 1t has larger population than any
Territory ever had at its admission. Oregon
was admitted with less than fifty thousand
inhabitants; Florida with less than thirty
thousand. Kansas, as is shown by the cen
sus for taxation and by the vote of the people,
has over me hursdred thousand-more than
some States already admitted, and more than
many of the Congressional Districts.
So as to territory, Kansas has, besides It's
barren and uninhabitable portions, an area
Of aqhtv thousand square miles, which would
make State larger than Virginia, Illinois,
or Missouri, so that there can be no object
ion on the score of limited amount of Ter
ritory.
He asked in all seriousness of the domi-
nant party if they had gained anything thus
far by putting Kansas off. The admission
had once been offered Kansas on certain con-
ditious. Since then they had admitted Ore
gon with not half the population of Kansas,
and there was no difference IN the cases ex-
cept that Oregon was expected to make
democratic State, and Kansas was not.
Asto the objections derived from the condi-
tions of the English bill, he denied the right
or power of one Congress to restrain sue
ceedlng Congress in the exercise of Its constI-
tional duty, and moreover the restrictions OF
that bill were an infringement on the patents
of the circumlocution Office. Il was only a
mode of contriving chow not to do it. -
They in that bill required census, but had
passed no statutes to provide for the taking
of a census. Can it be, he asked, that we
shall refuse admission because we have put
restrictions on that people until certain
things are done, which never could be done
unless we had provided for them, and we
neglected to provide for their being done
Mr.. Collamer went on, showing up the
various devices of How not to do it -
doubtless with his customary acuteness and
power, of which the telegraphic abstract
gives but an imperfect representation. We
await the speech in full before giving
| extracts.

THE sICILIAN INsURRECTIoN.

The landing of Garibaldi with 1000 men
recruited on the Italian Peninsula, in Sicily,
is fully confirmed. and fuller advices, detail
ing the progress of the revolt, will be looked
for with great interest. The following is
from the foreign correspondence of the New
York Commercial Advertiser.

the invaders ran in between the fritish ship and
the shore, so as to prevent two Neapoltan irgates
by which they were chased. from firing at them
1t is assumed that. after having landed, they
abandoned their vessels; but although the Official
journal Of Naples announced their capture IN grand
terms, il has since been alleged from Turin, that
one Of them (the steamer Piemonte) contrived TO
escape The probability Is that she was sunk

The baffed frigates afterward commenced an an

protests from some Of the representatives, OF Tor
cgn powers, that they would be held to account
for wanton damage. Several English firms have
important wine depots at the place, and these 1t
appears were not spared. The town contains 10000
inhabitants, but is not considered OF lmportAHce
a fortified place. The original report that Ga
rbaldi landed at the head of the adyenturers, has
been followed by others, that he had forthwith
proceeded to the headquarters in the interior, and
to-day there is a telegram from Genoa, that some
regiments of Nelpolitan cavalry which had been
despatched from Palermo against him, had been
completely destroyed Tho distance between Pa

has looked. Austria will assist him cOvertly by
sending vessels of to cruise off Sicily, for the
protection of Austrian subjects" and the Pope,
through General Lamoriciere and his Irish and
other volunteers will perhaps try to make diver
sion on the Piedmontese frontier. 1t is also at
frmed that the deposed rulers Of the Duchies have
made common cause with him, and will endeavor
to stir up their adherents in every way. All con-
ceivable elements therefore exist for keeping Italy
in flame from "the Alps to the Adriatic.'

The SPIRIT OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY -
Occasional writes from Washington to
Forney's Press that
"No one can read the proceedings Of the
Republican Convention, in session at Chica-
20 as | write, without being impressed by
the enthusiasm and compactness Of that or
ganization. The Republicans will make
vigorous and effective struggle for the con-
troll Of the government. In few days their
orators will be found on the stump in every
free State. They will also have champions
in four or FIVE of the Southern States. Their
journals are unqucstionably among the
ablost and most progressive in America, and
their leaders, ambitious and daring men, are
resolved to win the character of being able
10 administer the affairs Of this Republic of
ours. In this city, they have established
headquarters, and number many partizans
among the local or resident population. Mr..
Gurley, Republican member of Cincinnati
in the house, is a man of large fortune, and
entertains with great and unsparing hberali-
tv at his mansion on E street. Mr. Blair,
the old editor of the Globe under jackson
and Van Buren, living at "Silver Spring,
q short distance outside of the town, attracts
10 his social board daily numbers OF the con-
trolling spirits o. the same party. Mr.. Sew
ard has his levees on T street. General Came
ron and Thaddeus Stevens live in elegant
quarters on Capitol Hill, and are ready to
receive their friends in the most hospitable
manner. Senator Chandler, Of Michigan;
Senator Trumbull, of Illinois; Mr.. Spaul-
ding. of the House; Mr.. Sumner, Of the Sc
nate, and many others that l could name,
are active in their attentions to strangers.
They are, therefore, infinitely better orga-
nizcd than the Democratic parry. The large
votes on the tariff and the Territorial bills
displayed a discipline and concert of action
unusual in our day.
Meanwhile the Democracy are disheartened
and demoralized. -

Judge Daniel of the Supreme Court, died to-day
at kicam0nd.
Treasury draft was issued today in favor Of
the State of Missouri for S35S 600, that being the
amount Of the two per cent fund.
The senate was in executive session to-day for
four hours on the Mexcln treaty. There was az
earnest debate. Involving the entire question Sew
cral amendments were voted on and rt jscted, in
GLIDING those Of Mr.. simmons. which had been
previously approved Of by some Of the Republi-
cans who were opposed % the treaty in its origin

majority. This result; has produced much disap-

during the few weeks past were favorable to its
ratification. Peadiny the motion to reconsider tho

Hay REQUIRED FOR Cows-Ots Brigham,
oF Westborough, Mass, after 20 years expe-
rience in farming, says, in the New England
Farmer, that good cows will eat on an ave-
rage 20 lbs. OF hay per day, when giving
milk, and l6 lbs. when dry-not by guess
work, but tested by actual weighing for
months at a time.
Then it is easy to calculate the cost of
milk. In the neighborhood of New York,
the average value of hay is one cent pound,
and the average quantity Of milk not over
six quarts. At 81 cents quart it will pay
the hay bill and one cent u day over. II
other feed is given, the increase of milk must
paw for that. The manure will be nth at
least the cost Of attendance and milking. II
the milk is worth more than 81 cents. il
gives a profit; and if less, loss. The rule
Is a useful one for those who buy hay, as il
shows them how much must be provided to
winter a cow We would not risk a provision
Of less than two tons per COW.

\ New bridge was lately erected over
Eshleman's Greek, near Harrisburg, Pa.
This bridge is full forty-fve feet span, and
the workmen commenced removing the old
bridge in the morning, and had the new one
completed. ready for the passage of trains,
before night. All business is suspended on
this road, on Sunday, except the construc-
ton of bridges, which, in the case of rail-
roads, seems to be work of necessity. The
various pieces are got ready during the week,
so that nothing remains to be done on Sum
day, when no trains are running, but to
erect the spans and relay the track. The
expedition with which this is done would be
astonishing to novices in such matters.

TROUTING ALL ALONE.

| went trouting, went trouting.
And the morning sun aslapt
Threw its amber glances slyly
Where the birds their mathis chant.
And the hooks held witching shadows
On their dewy dusk OF stone,
And because my heart asked nothing,
went trouting all alone.
0, angled where the water
Swept the pebbles clear and slow
And the sky smiled down upon me,
And the brook laughed up below,
But trout was never started
Where the silver eddies shone,
And my heart kept asking softly
Why l trouted all alone.
Then there came brown haired phantom
and how true to life it seemed
Looking up with dimpled smiling
Where but now the ripples cleaned,
So I smiled to see it smiling,
But the phantom face had flown,
And a maiden stood beside me,
Who'd gone trouting all alone.
Then the morning hurried swiftly,
And the moon stood 10 the sky,
But d trout had neither captured,
Though | couldn't tell you why;
And there came promise softly,
Ere the evenings crimson shone,
That whenever WE went trouting,
We'd go tTouting all alone.
