BeS@ On Thursday evening last, a couple
of young folks called on Esquire F., at Troy,
and after considerable hesitation, requested
to be united in the holy bonds of matri-
mony," which request the Esquire at once
proceeded to comply with. The bride,
from the lateness of the hour and the pc
culiar nature of the call, thought some ex-

SOUTH CAROLINA,

Is it not desirable, is il not a duty, is it not
more than poetic justice, that South Carolina
so fragrant in sin, should be made to feel the
earliest and heaviest penalties OF war !? If "a
southern city must fall let Charleston be razed
to the ground and salt sowed ON its ruins
NeW York Times
If Gen. Butler or any other general could
signify that his destination before snow falls
would be Charleston, he could raise brigade
in New England within seven days-not for
any purpose of vengeance, but to intict just
chastisement upon the head devil of this con
spiracy Tie whole state, and their extended
olation of the war which it invoked, and whose
deadliest bolts ought to have fallen upon her
head before expending their force elsewhere.
II is a kind of waste of justice TO expend
while the guilty states below the border are
left in comparative repose. Let it be hoped
that some of the great naval expeditions of
which SO much is expected, and SO little
achieved, will turn their eager prows toward
Charleston harbor, silence the saucy guns
whose voices involved the nation in a desper.
ate war, take possession of the defeuces of that
turbulent city, devote her easily duped inhab.
itants TO penance, and her conspirators to ret
ributon. There would be something practical
in such demonstration, and the prospect of
