GOING IT BLIND.

A blind man named Thomas Bishop was
brought before the Police Court in Cleveland,
last week, charged with hgamy under the fol
lowing extraordinary circumsiances:- The fellow
it appears, resides near GAINESVILLE, and has been
blind about five yeurs. On the tenth of last
September, he arrived ut the American Hotel,
Cleveland, with blind girl seventeen years of
age, whom he had brought from Huron. He
married her the next day under the name of Wm.
Gibsout. The parties remained at the American
till the 18th, when the blind Lothario having
made the acquaintance of another girl, also
blind, in the meantime, took her before the Rev.
MIR. Starkey and was united to her in marriage,
Ga the 18th, the day following the marriage,
Bishop went to Steubenyille with his second vic.
tim. lie siaid there one night, and the next
day deserted her taking with him all her dresses,
jewelry, etc, and 500 in money belonging to
her, amounting in all to about 5000 On leav-
ing Cleveland he had robbed the Huron girl of
all she possessed. He went from Steubenve
to Marietta on the Goth, where he passed under
the name OF August Cook. At Marietta, he met.
another blind girl, also from the Blind Asylum,
10 whom he was married oh the 25th of Septem
Der. lie lived with her four days. He then
deserted her, taking all her property in jewelry
and dresses. He went next TO Parkershurg,
thence to Cincinnati, and thence 10 Iowa. He
s0on afterwards returned again, reaching Co.
lumbus, on Saturday last. On Wednesday, he
went to GAINESVILLE, and on Thursday he was
arrested, four miles from GAINESVILLE, and taken
to Cleveland for trial. He was committed to
answer.

A GRUMBLE FROM THE SOUTH.
From the Richmond whig1

All the indications point to long war. At
one time we had hoped that the dash - the
etdn of our volunteers unrestraned, but simply
guided by able generals-w0uld have planted
our banners, before frost, in the heart of the
enemy's country, and conquered an honorable
peace. But different policy has obtained. We
of the South, who were to attack, have adopted
a system of Defense and so far, have uniformly
awaited the advance of the foe. This may be
the safer policy; but we have never been abe
to appreciate it. Our conviction is that n VIC
torious advance into the enemy's country is the
only road to n lasting and honorable peace. We
must fight, and we must conquer before we can
make treaty. FIVE cannot do this, We must sub
nit to the fate OF the weaker party. The enemy
has the dominion of the sea; he can assail us at
almost innumerable points he can pund er our
coasts, and penetrate our rivers. He is supreme
in the Chesapeake Bay; he commands the Po-
tomac he has possession of Maryland, of North
Western Virginia aud is contend ng for Missouri
and Kentucky. While he threatens our whole
coast be may assail us at any point of our ex-
tended frontier The whole situation must be
altered before we can have peace on any terms
compatible with honor and safety.
We have never heard of any plan suggested
for effecng this desirable alteration short ct
carrying the war into the enemys country.
While We stand on the defensive, aud the enemy
impossible for US to destroy his supremacy at
sea or prevent his predatory incursions on our
coast. We are subjected to all the disadvaut-
ages of defensive war of indefinite duration,
or to peace dictated by the enemy The pos
sibility of our success is not within the range o
accident To prevent our subjugatiou or ex-
termination is all we can hope for.
We have no skill in strategy, and know nothing
| of the means at the command Of our Generals (;
but if this is all that is left to us, we had well
be looking out for terms of submission, and the
sooner the better. An endless war, which uf-
iords no opportunity for either victory or re-
venge. is a bootless undertaking
The Southern pc pie who have offered them
selves and their all Tor the prosecution OF this
war, and who have reposed implicit confidence
in the men entrusted with its conduct, have
looked for something better 1t is not to be dis
guised that a sense of uneasness and distrnst i,
gradually supplanting that OF generous cou6denci
suspicion is gaining ground that all the adyan
tages of our position have not been pro6ted b.
as they might have been, that the war has no
been prosecuted with the vigor and energy de-
manded by the emergency, We hear muttering
and complaints, apart from those connected
with the Quartermaster, Commissary and Aedca
Departments, growing out of the appointments o.
SO many civilians to high commands. Many o
I these appointments have filled the country Will

A ROMANCE OF BRADFORD.

Under our matrimonial heading we have this
week 10 record a marriage the circumstances
connected with which have attracted no small
share of the attention Of gossipers. Mr. Palmer,
despite his age, is well known in this village, as
one of our most active, industrious and esteemed
citizens. The Indy is of middle age-we dare
not specify the exact number of summers she
may have seen-who has been residing in Brad
ford over II mouths. Hhe has ONE property in
the old country, in the hands of brother, which
brings her in a comfortable income. The we'd
dug was to have taken place about month ago,
NJ the house Of the BRIDE The dinner aud
bride-cake was prepared, and the minister in
attendance TO bind the silken cord, when
nephew of the bride arrived, railroad haste,
from Toronto, and partly by threats and partly
by persuasion, induced her to postpone the cere-
mony. He ordered Mr.. Palmer out of the house
but the latter courageously replied that he had
prepared the dinner and would share of it,
Miss Littewood was afterwards subjected to
series of most unwarrantable prosecutions from
her hrother.in-law, a Mr.. P, a wholesale
merchant in Toronto, which has caused the feel
ings Of this community to turn strongly IN favor
Of the bride and bridegroom. She was inveigled
to Toronto, and in her absence her house was
broken into her furniture and other effects
were taken possession of aud some of them sold,
and others taken to Toronto. second time the
wedding was fixed upon, but was again frustra-
teu by the lh'eIierehve VI VT - mho toOk
Miss Littlewood again to Toronto, and finding
her still determined, ordered her out of his
house, giving as an excuse that a noted preacher
from England was residing with him. She was
even threatened to be sent to the Lunatic Asy-
ium Her property being withheld from her,
she had to employ lawyer to obtain her rights.
The marriage license was seized when the house
was broken into, and another had 10 be procured
to complete the ceremony. She obtains her
money through her brotherin-law and check
having lately arrived, she vas informed he bad
returned it to her brother. 1t is, perhaps,
needless 10 remark that, were the lady compelled
to earn her living, it is not likely that her rela-
tives would manifest such interest in her welfare.
In spite of all obstacles, however, the determiu-
ed couple managed to crafty their romantic at
tachment and the nuptial ceremony was duly
performed on the 18th inst.-Bradford ChrORi-

A DANGEROUS Box The Mission records
the Methodist Church make mention Of 'he fol-
lowing occurrence to the pastor Of Morris Chapel,
Cincinnati, Ohio, for the Missionary Society,"
"a suspicious looking box was sent to the house
of Rev. Mr.. Moody the next morning after
collection for missionary purposes 1t was de
livered by little girl, wbe said she had been
requested to leave it at that house The minis
ter having some fears, from the weight of it, that
mischief was intended, had his family retire
from the house, after the maid had departed. and
then putting the box in the hall, proceeded with
care to cut the strings and remove the covering
when another box appeared, which was singular
ly nailed. This he turned bottom side up, and
commenced cutting through the bottom, as a safe
mode of coming at its real contents. When the
bog was penetrated, there was an appearance Of

From tie Philadelphia Saturday Post.
SING, bird, on green Missouris plain,
The saddest song Of sorrow;
Drop tears Oh clouds, in gentlest rain
We from the winds eau borrow;
Breathe out, ye winds, your softest sigh,
Weep, flowers, i'll dewy splendor,
For him who knew well how to die,
But never to surrender,
Ugsose enc the august sun
Upon that day uI CORY;
uncurled from musket and from gun
Tie war-eloud gray and hoary.
1t gathered ike ii funeral pail,
Now broken and now blended,
Where rang the buges angry call,
And rank with rank contended.
Four thousand mcn us brave aud true
As e'er went forth in daring,
Upon the foe that morning threw
The strength Of their despairing.
They feared not death-men bless the field
That patriot soldiers die OH
Fair Ffeedom's cause was sword aud shield,
Aud at their head was Lyon
Their leaders, troubled soul locked forth
From eyes OF troubled brightness;
Sad soul the burden Of the North
Had pressed out all its lightness,
He gazed upon the unequal fight,
His ranks all rent and goary,
Aud felt the shadows close like night
Round his career Of glory.
"Gencral, come lead us Z" lou ! the cry
Frem brave band was ringing
Lead us, and we will stop, or die,
That hatterS's awful singing"
lie spurred ID where his heroes stood,
Twice woundtd--no wound knowing
The fire Of battle in his blood
And on his forehead glowing.
Oh, cursed for aye that traitors hand,
And cursed that aim so deadly,
Which smote the brayest of the land,
And dyed his bosom redly =
Serene he lay while past him pressed
The BATTLES furious billow,
As calmy as q babe may rest
Upon its mothers pillow.
So Lyon died and well may flowers
His place oil burial cover
For never had this land of ours
a more devoted lover.
Living, his country was his bride,
His live he gave her dying;
Life, fortune, loye-he nought denied
To her and to her signing.
Rest, Patriot, iu thy hill side grave,
Beside her form who bore thee
Long may the land thou died'st to save
Her hammered stars wave DER thee
Upon her history's brightest page,
And on Fame's glowing portal,
She'll write thy grand, heroic page,
And grave thy name immortal H.. p.

LITTLE SHOES AND STOCKINGS.

And the tear-wet cheek

And the daily prayer;
OF the buried darling,
Present everywhere
Brightly plaideI stocking,
OF tue finest wool;
Rounded feet and dainty.
Each stocking full;
Tiny shoes OF crimson,
Shoes that nevermore
Will awaken echoes
Fr,m the toy-strewd floor.
Not the wealth of Indies
COuid your worth eclipse,
Priceless hide treasures.
Pressed tu whiteued lips,
As the mother muses.,
From the world apart,
Leaning on the arrow
That has pierced her heart.

Eyes Of Heavens blue,
Parted muuth-a rose bud
Pearls just peeping through,
Soft arms fondly twining
Round her neck nt eve;
Like shoes aud stockings,
These the dreams ye weave.
Weave her yet another
OF the world of bliss;
Let the stricken mother
Turn away from ais;
Bid her dream believing
Little feet await,
Watching for her passing
Through the pearly gate.
