A young lady of wealthy parentage, fedg-
ling from one of our fashionable boarding
schools, type of modern elegance, was recent
ly united by the silken tie of matrimony to
gem Of beau. The mammas and papas on
both sides being surrounded by all the concom-
itants in luxury, and many an agreeable para
phernalia bespeaking the possession of the
"dust," determined to get "fne establish
ment" for the young couple, and accordingly
they were fixed in mansion on w. street.
A few days after this, school companion Of
our heroine called upon her, and was surprised
to find so many servants about the house.
"Why, Mary" said she, "what in the name
Of sense have you so many servants about you
forp"
"Ah" replied madam, tive haven't any more
than we want. There is but one cook, one
chambermaid, two housemaids, one housekeep-
er, and-a-chids nurse. I'm sure there are
none too mary"
ala ha !" laughed her friend, "what do you
want with child's nurseP Oh that is too
funny"
"Well, we haven't any immediate use for her,
but then, when we were married, Charles said
we would want one, and you know its not al
ways best to leave things until the last mo-
ment."

n@-l 1t was happy thought of the 10y
al business men of New York TO give tc
their working men holiday, and make
National celebration of tie coming 4th
Of March.
1t is good standpoint from which to
look back upon the achievement of the
last four years. The condition of the na-
tion when Mr.. Lincoln was first insugu-
rated, as well as the history OF the four
years Of his most eventful Of all our ma
tioual administrations, are too deeply i'm
pressed on the miods of all to need reca-
pitulation. Standing in the place where
all our Presidents had stood, coming in
upon the heels of an Administration
marked by imbecility, irresolution, cow
ardice and treason, taking his official oath
when passion ruled the hour, and the
oounsels Of calmness and wise patriot
ism had failed, vixen all minds were
doubling and all hearts were faint; with
the infnriate cries Of the maddened horde
of the slave propaeandists sounding in bis
ear, Abraham Lincoln assumed the Exec
u.ive Chair, aud while he counseled With
the wise moderation Of statesman, he
announced with the earnestness of pa.
triot bis determination TO preserve the
integrity of the Union at all hazards
Supported in this resolution by the loyal
masses OF the North, the record of his
administration, with it's defeats and i,s
victories, attest the faithfulness. with
which he and they have adhered to this
purpose. Americans vindicated their cit.
= izsnship ard Republican institutions when
in the midst Of civil war Mr.. Lincoln was
peacefully reelected.
For the glorious victories on land and
sea which have crowned the National
arms, and which bring near the speedy
death of the rebellion, and for Mr.. Lin,
coins reelection, itself the greatest and
erandest event since the organization o
the Government, let the people all ovel
the land make of next Saturday day o.
rejoicing.

slavery as We expected. But after all. the
leading men OF all parties and the very
best minds amongst the Copperheads re-
cognize that emancipation is q necessity.
and that its legislative recognition is only a
question of time. Gov. Bramlette, Lieut..
Gov. Jacobs, and greater than either of
them, Senator Guthrie, we're in I. favor Of
the amendment. Guthrie said in let.
ter on the subject:
"No intelligent man, whatever may be
bis desires upon the subject, can hope for
the perpetuation of slavery in Kentucky
Every State Which surrounds us has abol-
ished slavery. The laws for renditien of
fugitivas are repealed, and there is no
possible hope sor their re-enactment. The
most valuable slaves have enlisted in the
army or fed to other States; those tha,
remain are hopelessly demoralized, and
rendered not only valueless, but burden.

ty, and indisputable.
Wether the proposed amendment be rati-

tained.'
