Brussels, had rendered to the'First Regi-
ment, through the Governor of the State
battery Of Steel Riaed Cannon. The
following is the correspondence relating to
the gift.
JUDGE GOODRICH TO GOV. RAMSEY.
AsToR HOUSE, NEW YORK.,
April 10th, 1862.
HIS Ercellency, Alexander Ramsey, Gooe'nor
Of Minnesota, &C., &C., e.:
DEAR SIR :-General Sanford, our Min.
lister resident at the Court of Brussels, has
devolved upon me the pleasing duty of lay
ing before you the accompanying patriotic
letters. They speak nobly for themselves
our State, its brave sons, and the generous
and patriotic writer.
These letters are not only for the pres.
ent, but future generations. They are
calculated to inspire lofty deeds and high
moral daring, now and at all times, so po'
tent in the vindication ef our national
honor. In after time the historian will
speak of them, and the patriotism which
called them forth. The kind manner in
which the writer has been pleased to men.
ton my name restraints me from further
comment.
Upon the breech of these guns you see

General Sanford was a pioneer tourist
in Minnesota. I need not say let him be
made an honorary member of the "Old
Settlers Association" at its Annual Meet
ing in June next yourself, Governor Sib'
ley, Col. Oakes, j E. McKusick, Soc
Nelson, or some other member will see
that it be done.
The freight and charges upon this Bat.
terry and its appurtenances, to this city.
have been paid by the donor, who in com
mon with ourselves regrets the delay in its
arrival at this port.
Irasmuch as am not certain as to the
direction you desire these Guns to take
and as they cannot be removed until you
shall claim or "assume" them for "tht

of other Instructions, request your friene

to whom they were consigned, to hold them

you copy of the letter Of the Secretary
of the Treasury, to the Collector of the

OFFICIAL LETTER FROM MR.. SANFORD TO THE
GOVERNOR.

OFFICIAL LETTER FROM MR.. SANFORD TO THE
GOVERNOR.
BRUSSELS, 22d Feb, 1862.
SIR: l have directed small battery con-
sisting of three steel riaed cannon, of six
pound caibre, with suitable ammunition, to
be shipped to New York by this weeks
steamer from England, and to be held there
subject to your order.
i beg to present them, through you, to
the State of which you are the honored
head, for the First Minnesota Regiment 01
Volunteers.
The efficiency and discipline of that reg
iment as detailed in the public prints, and
the conspicuous valor displayed by it in the
field at Bull Run and Balls Bluff won my
admiration, and my pride was heightened
here, 10 foreign land, by encomiums which
its conduct elected from strangers.
DESTROYS to contribute further to the
cause of the Union, have thought that I
could not do so more usefully than in havS
ing these guns made for its defense, and
that they could not be entrusted to better
hands than those of the gallant First Min
nesota.
In our country, where we have no titles
or decorations to bestow as in Monarchies,
merit looks for its reward to an apprecia.
ting people; and this tribute to patriotism
and valor from fellow citizen may serve
to those brave men as an evidence of appre
citation, as an encouragement in this great
struggle in which they are engaged, and as
a lasting testimonial in after time, of the ad.
miration which I doubt not, is shared by
large majority of their countrymen.
l pray your Excellency to be my medium
of communication in Offering these guns to
the First Minnesota Regiment, and to &C.
cept for yourself the assurance OF the high
consideration with which have the honor
to be, Your 0bedient servant,

A BlindfOId Marriage.
BY GEORGE L. AIKEN.

The elite of the court of Louis the XIV,
the great monarchs of France, were assem-
bled in the chapel of the great Trianon, to
witness the nuptials of Louis, Count of
Franche Compte-a natural son of the King
with Lydonie, Duchess de Baliverne, a
wealthy heiress.
The singular feature of the ceremony was,
that the bridegroom's eyes were bandaged
with white handkerchief.
This circumstance excited the wonder of
all. Had the bride been old and ugly
they would not have been surprised. On
the contrary, she was young and quite
pretty.
The King alone understood this strange
freak of the bridegroom, and though much
enraged, he prudently held his peace and
suffered the ceremony to proceed.
A few words will explain the motives OF
the bridegroom.
When Louis XIV came back from his
great campaign in the Palstinate, he de-
termined to unite his SOD, whose valor and
daring during the war had greatly pleas.
ed him, to one of the wealthy wards of the
crown.
He proposed the union to the young duch.
ess of Baliverne, and found her favorably
inclined.
She djust come to Court, having just
emerged from the convent where she had
completed her education.
She had seen the young Count often,
though he had never deigned to cast a
glance upon her. She knew he was brave
and noble. and she thought handsome. The
bar-sinster of his escutcheon was no objec-
tion. She accepted him.
Unfortunately, Louis of Franche Compte,
who, like his father, was something of a
reprobate, would not accept her.
My son" said the great King, 6 have
resolved that you shall marry"
My worthy sire and most excellent fas
ther," returned the Count, l have resolved
to do no such thing!"
The King frowned. He was not in the
habit OF being contradicted.
81 have made formal proposition of
your name, for the hand of the Duchess of
bailverne, aud she has accepted you," be
said gravely.
"Doubtless, F" sneered the young scapegrace,
cher taste is excellent, and how could she
refuse me? Perhaps it would have been as
well to have consulted my inclinations in
this matter. do not wish to marry"
"No."
Then love my Duchess. She is noble,

lam your son-that is nobility enough;"
be bowed low as be spoke, and the King
smiled at the compliment; "and the Jews
trust me-what could I do with more
gold?"
"She is the prettiest woman in my court. ="
"I'm tired of pretty women; they are
always FOOLS"
"Could you but see her, you would be
sure to fall in love with her."
81 never will see her." answered the
Count determinedly.
"See her or not, you shall marry her ~
cried the King in rage.
"lf do III marry her with my eyes shut!"
returned the Count.
The King grew purple with passion.
Marky'e, boy! You owe me obedience
as a subject and as son, 1t is my will that
you bestow your hand upon the Dutchess de
Baliverne. The wedding shall take place
this day fortnight. Submit to my will with
a good grace, and will create you Duke
