 this life, You faithfully, promise to be his true wife? As seal to this contract, your right hands uuite, And I, before all these good people, tonight Proclaim that henceforward you two shall be one, You are husband and wife, and my dutyis done. And trust that nons present, will think it .

The members of the Rev. J. A. Mckinstry's Congregation. paid him donation visit on the afternoon and evening of New Years day. Abundant provision was made by the ladies of every variety of eatables for the occasions. Thus the time was passed very pleasantly, and espe- cially by the children in the evening, who filled tho house with their merry laugh. Donations were also made in many and various articles of provision.
 The National Fast was observed here, and an appropriate sermon preached by the pastor from the 62d Psalm 7th and 9th verses.

THE inauguration sf the new Governor of Mas sachusetts, took place on Saturday, and he de- livered his inaugural address to the Legislature. Gov. Andrew leaves the entire subject of the Personal Liberty Law with the Legislature, but does not indicate his course in case of its repeal denies vigorously the right of secession, and ad vises an expression of opinion on the subject by the Legislature. Massachusetts, he contends, is not in any way responsible for the present trou- bies in tho country, and will always be true to the Constitution and the Union. Gov. Wash burn, of Maine, was also inaugurated on Satur. day, and delivered his ad dress. He recommends conciliation and forbearance towards the South but opposes any compromises not warranted by the spirit of the Constitution and while recon mending the repeal of any statute which may be either unconstitutional or justly regarded as of fensive, indicates his conviction that Maine ii not really transgressor.
 1 SECRETARY THOMPSON resigned on Tuesday His resignation is based upon the grounds that the President pledged himself-so Thompson says-that no troops should be sent southward without his knowledge. He knew nothing ofthe sailing of the "Star of the West'' until Monday evening. The N. Y. Times says it is currently reported that Thompson and tho President had high words, in consequence of which the Presi. dent hinted that he had better resign.
 NATIONAL HALL, Philadelphia, was packed with 5000 people, on Saturday night, at a meet ing to sustain and endorse Major Anderson Judge Lewis presided, and the venerable Com modore Stewart was on the platform. The reso' lutions declare that the national flag must not be dishonored, that Anderson ought to have all the help he needs, and that if war is commenced on the United States, the makers thereof must be treated as public enemies The enthusiasm was intense.
 dov. HICKS, of Maryland, has issued another address, in which he consistently refuses to con- vene the Legislature of that State, for the req. sons before given, and for various othera in .d. dition. He declines peremptorily to commit any act looking in the remotest degree to disrun. ton of the Confsderacy, believing that such an event would inevitably produce civil war. Gov. Hicks intimates that he is in full possession of all the plans of the Disunionists in the State and gives them plainly to understand that they can never be carried out with his consent

n@-At the opening of the new year it is al ways agreeable for us to call the attention of our readers to the republication of the English Quar- terlies and Blackwood's s Magazine by the Messrs. :, Scott & Co.,, of New York.
 The Edinburgh, Westminster, London Quar-
 iy and North British have always been held n high esteem by the American public-as Reviews of the highest order and merit, and com bining all the best talent in the United King dom-and as proof of their appreciation we may add that each of these Quarterlies has double or even treble the circulation in this country that they have at home. Blackwood which is issued monthly always contains readable stories, excel lent articles on current politics and history in England, and many keen reviews of the latest English and foreign publications.
 Messrs. Scott & Co.,, furnish all these Quarter lies and Reviews for $lo,- per annum-or the Blackwood alone for 8.
