4 WOMAN MARREEs 4 WOMAN.

A person was brought before the
police court at Syracuse the other day
on a charge of wearing male apparel,
while being with female, of making
love to the Syracuse bellies "On false
pretences," and marrying a woman,
&c. There is no doubt of her feminini-
ty, though her counterfeit of a man is
said to be perfect. She is English, is
supposed to be forty years of age, went
by the name of A. Clark, and received
remittances from England, part of
which goes to the support of sister in
Syracuse. In reply to the question,
care you a male or female?' she
answered Your officers can tell yOu,"
or .'have told you" She refused to
give any more direct answer to the
inquiry in relation to her sex, and
was committed for further examination.
A few weeks since she assumed the
garb of man, and made the acquaint-
ance ola young lady named Miss Lewis.
After Erief courtship they were mar
ried, and the parties have since
resided together as husband and wife.
The marriage ceremony was performed
about three weeks since, and the ebride's
father suspecting something wrong
about his new sOn-in law, obtained a
private interview, and informed her OF
his suspicion that she was not what
she pretended to be. At first she claim
ed that she was man, but on closer
questioning admitted that she was a
female. She has marked features,
prominent nose, high cheek bones,
black hair, worn long (for a man.
and curling at the end, and apparently
brushed and oiled with care. She
wears a glazed cap, blue coat, blue shirt,
dark vest, snuff-colored pants, gaiter
boots, and shawl over her shoulders
speaks with considerable confidence,
and is not very communicative. 1t
is understood that when this eccentric
woman first came to the house Of the
brides father, she was dressed in fe-
male apparel, and her clothing was
changed to mans attire with the
know ledge of the family. The proba-
bility is that the family supposed that
she was assuming the proper habiii-
ments of her sex and her waman's dress
was disguise. The lady's father was
averse to the match, but the bride still
cIings to her woman husband, and
claims that the arrest is a conspiracy
against them. They were allowed to
meet in the anterooms Of the police
office, and embraced each other with
the greatest marks of affection.

a SEA SICK TRAGEDIAN.

Sea sickness is a sad leveler, to which
the strongest minds succumb, leaving
nothing but the desire to touch terra
firma again. An eminent artist, who
has recently made a most successful
tour in California, returned East by
steamer. Scarcely had the ship got
out of sight of land before the Thespian
was laid by the heels with mai du n1er.
In the depths of his despair he called
for the Captain, and when that worthy
arrived, the tragedian gazed at him for
a few moments and then asked:
"Ar-r-e-you the Captain ?"
81 have that honor" said the son of
Neptune.
"Ver-r-y well-sir. l want you to
run this blasted ship ashore. I'll pay
for her, hull, engines and cargo"
The Captain smiled and told his un-
happy passenger it was impossible.
"Ver-r-y well, sir-r-r. Tie her to a
rock, then, and stop this blasted roll
ling"
Being assured that this was also i'm
possible, the wretched actor retired to
his stateroom, and lying there in NOR
tai agony, cursed the sea and all that
appertained to it with Oaths both loud
and deep.
Now, it SO happened that the Rev.
Mr.. Chadband, who had collected a
large amount of money in California,
to purchase fine tooth combs and tracts
for the Digger Indians, was on his way
East to invest his funds, and occupied
the stateroom next to the actors. HOr-
rified at the rOars of the sick lion, he
walked into his staterOOm just as he let
off another volley of anathemas, which
extorted deep groan from Chadband
"Halloo," said the player, "are y0U
sick ?"
"SiclI at heart, BROTHER" was the re-
sponse, "to hear you use such bad Ian
guage."
"It is bad habit" said the wretched
artist, "but hang it, sir, here pve been
turned inside out for three daysthrowing
up everything possible, and if Pm sick
any longer, curse me if [ don't think L
shall throw up my engagement in New
York. Blast the sea J"
Don't, my dear sir, don't curse so.
Remember One who was patient under
much greater suffering than yours"
The tragedian rose to his full height,
and, running his fingers through his
hair, as he chewed his voice for a mo-
ment, replied
81 do remember Him, sir-r-r, and I
remember that when He was caughtat
sea, He got out and a0aLked, and 1 wish
/ could follow His example in that re-
spect, at least"
Mr.. Chadband concluded that any
more missionary effort in that direction
would not be very profitable.

To KEEP POTATOES FROM ROTTING.
The Germantown Telegraph is au-
thority for the following which may
be worth something to farmers whose
potatoes already show signs of rotting
badly. The surest protection againstthe
rotting of potatoes, after being har-
vested, there is no question, we think, is
air Stacked lime. Let the lime be
sprinkled over the bottom of the bin
before filling, and repeat the applica-
tion at each foot Of potatoes until the
bin is filed up. The quantity is what
a farmer would call good sprinkling.
Potatoes should be excluded from the
light. and where convenient, covered
with old carpet. When buried out of
doors, a light dry spot should be select
ed, which can be thoroughly drained,
and then pursue the same with the
lime as before. A vent must of course
be left as in the top for the escape of
the confined air.

GOOD HAMs.-After hams have been
smoked, take them down, thoroughly
rub the flesh part with molasses, then
Immediately apply ground or powder
ed pepper, by sprinkling on as much as
will stick to the molasses, when they
must be hung up again to dry. Hams
treated in this manner will keep per-
fectly sweet for two or three years.
This must be done before the fly depOs-
its its eggs, for after that is done, moth
ing will stop their ravages. The above
has been practiced in our section for
more than twenty years. No soaking
is necessary. One pint of molaSses and
one and half or two pounds of black
pepper are sufficient for any ordina y
gamily. Try this plan, if you Want
good sweet hams.-COr. Rural AnaeTt-

which are held to be impcachable, and
condemning him without an opportun-
ity of being heard in his own defence,
will meet the same fate with the res0-
luton censuring President Jackson.
We suppose very little hope is en-
tertained by any one that the scheme
military reconstruction will be in any
degree relaxed by Congress, or even
modified, except to make itmore rigor-
Gus and proscripive. They look to
the voting element, which is secured
by this scheme, to cOunterbalance the
losses which they may suffer in the
North, and to prOlong their political
ascendency in the legislation of the
country, even though they should fail
in the election of the next President.
We have only to know what are their
party interests to beasSured oftheco course
they viii pursue. AS to the Stevens
Sumner project to regulate suffrage in
the States, it is believed that two
third majority cannot be had in its sup
port; but it is said that an attempt will
be made to pass law establishing uni
versal suffrage in elections for Con-
gresS and for presidential electors. 1t
would be vast relief to the country if
its representatives at Washington,
instead Of sacrificing every other inte-
est to the perpetuation OF political pow
er, would apply themselves at once to
the work of reform upon the subject of
taxation and currency, provide means
for its own officers, practice economy
i'll appropriations, and in good faith
try to restore the Union, and with it
the country to its wonted prosperity

THE DEVIL IN HIS BREECHES.-
Daniel Webster had an anecdOte Of OlG
Father Searl, the minister Of his boy
hood, which is too good to be lost. It
was customary then to wear buckskin
breeches in cool weather. One Sunday
morning in the autumn, Father Searl
brought his breecheS down from the
garret, but the wasps had taken posses
sion during the summer, and were hav-
ing a nice time of it in them. BY dint
of effort he got out the intruder5 and
dressed for meeting. But while read
ing the scriptures to the congregation
he felt a dagger from one of the enraged
small Waisted fellows, and jumped
around the pulpit slapping his thigh.
But the more he jumped the more they
stung. The people thought him crazy,
but he explained the matter by saying:
Brethren, don't be alarmed; the
word of the Lord is in my mouth, but
the devil is in my breeches !" Webster
always told it with great glee to the
ministers.

HINTS TO tiOUSEK EEPERS.- fol-
lowing are a few valuable household
hints, which are worth preserving:
Save your suds for garden plants, or
for garden yards, when sandy.
Wash your tea-trays with cold suds,
polish with Il little -four and rub with
a dry cloth.
Frozen potatoes make more starch
than fresh ones they also make nice
cakes.
A hot shovel held over vanished
furniture will take out the white spots.
A bit of glue dissolved in skinned
milk and water will restore old Grape.
Always mend the clothes before wash
ing them.

AT Sabbath school, not many miles
distant, only few weeks ago, a rever-
end gentleman, after exhorting the
school most piously and affectionately
for half hour, by way of giving the
pupils chance to contribute their mite
to the general glory OF the occasion,
requested them to sing Jordan for him,
expecting, of course, to hear, On Jor-
dan'S stormy banks L stand, &c. when,
to his surprise, the scholars, with one
accord, struck up, JOrdap am hard
road to tTaUet, &c.

SALT AND ASHES FOR HORSES
Those keeping horses, should, twice
week, throw in handful to each OF
salt and ashes. Mix them by putting
in three parts of salt to one of ashes.
Horses relish this, and it will keep
their hair soft and fine. 1t will pre-
vent bots, colic, &c. A little ground
sulphur mixed with salt and ashes,
and given once in two or three weeks,
is also beneficial. All domestic ami
mails will be thus benefited.-Americdn

THE SYNAGOGUE OF SWALLOWS.

ISome of our discontented folk, who must be
con he move :" may learn a lesson from the sage
swallow who was ''tircd Oftravel" and would sstay
in London
Lo, on the roofs the swallows congregate,
What time the raindrOps of October patter,
And each one talks about his future fate
And bless my soul, how merrily they chatter
I'm off to Memphis are the words of one,
"a nest by azure Nile was the suggestion
Of rare old lyrical Anacreon,
Ere earth was plagued with an Egyptian
question"
"WeIl I'm for Athens" quoth another bird
Extremely pleasant is the Greek metropolis,
Dear Procne's wailings long ago it heard;
And I've cosy nest in the Acropolis' -
"Im for Stamboul," thus twittered Number
Three;
II like the Turks who desperately tore an
Enormous slice from Europe. Then, you see,
I'm rather heterodox, and love the Koran"
Another SAID, 'Afar in Eastern land
Tartars would snatch old EngIands gold tiara
1 mean to fly straight off to Samarcand,
And watch the Russian armies through
Bokhara."
"Away! away! and at your swiftest pace
Come back, and tell what's done and who is
undone,"
So spake the sagest ofthe swallow race;
"Im tired of travel, and shall stay in London. !"

THE WRONG TICKET COULDN'T Go
INA freedman, on returning home
from the election last week, was asked
what he did. He replied he did not
know any more than child.
"WeIl," inquired his interrogator,
chow do you know whether you voted

"Oh, knows l voted right, cause L

HISHACOQgELLAS.
Kishacoquillas! beautiful word
Soft as the river it christens,
That drops from the mountain down like bird,
In trilIs OF natural melody heard,
Saying to any who listens
Under the hemlocks, over the willows
'Kishacoquillas :"
Once, when boy, strayed from thy rills,
Far in the green Alleghanies
Adown through the cleft of the wild grey hills,
To the golden valley of brooks and mills,
Where the strong Juniata's refrain is
Waiting to bear thee away on his pillows
"Kishacoquillas
Shrill the bald eagle screamed to tear
Thy silvery trout he had taken;
The eyes of the red fox winked from his lair;
Deep in thy sands were the tracks of the bear:
By the stag's tall antlers shaken,
The boughs of the beeches murmured to thrill us
''Kishacoquillas y
Down the long aisle of ash and oak
Shyly the deer were grazing
CherriIy echoed the lumbermens stroke;
Bluely arose their campfire smoke;
Dreamy by distance the song they were raising
Thou with thy life in thy seemed to thrill US
"Kishacoquillas !"
Called the young quail from the messy brake;
The woodcock whirring soaring;
Rang his alarm the rattlesnake
The cataract climbed the beard of the lake;
The old red mill slept snoring;
Bending the cattle drank under the willows,
"Kishacoquillas
Sweeter thy water than sugar that drips
In the cup of thy naples wounded
Sweet as kisses on maiden lips
Thy name, that is music to him who sips
Each time that its prattle is sounded,
Liquid and loving like thee to thrill US,
''KishaeOquillas :"

CONCERNING THE SOUL.-A preach
er once endevored to teach some child
ren that their souls would live a. n
they were dead. They heard his
words, but did not understand them.
He was too abstract; he shot over their
heads.
Snatching his watch from his pocket,
he said, "James, what is this | hold in
my hand ?"
"a watch, sir.
GA little clock" said another.
''Do you see it ?"
eyes, sir"
GLOW do you know it is "A watch ~
''It ticks, sir"
every Well; can any of you hear it
tick ~
All listen. After little pause:
YES, sir we hear it,"
Then he took off the case, and held
that in one hand and the watch in the
other.
Now, children, which isthe watch"
"The little one in your hand, sir"
every well, again. Now, | will put
the case aside-put it way down there,
in my hat. Now, let us see if you can
hear the ticking?"
eyes, sir, we hear it," cried several
voices.
"WeIl, the watch can tick, and go
and keep time, you can see, when the
case is OF, and put in my hat. So it
is with you, children. Your body is
nothing bit the cltSe. The soul is in
side. The ca may be taken off, and
buried in the ground may be cast in
to the fire, or thrown into the sea, but
the soul will live on just as well with
out the cody, as this watch will keep
on ticking when the case is laid aside"
Now that illustration and that
thought will live in the minds Of those
children who heard it forever.

PLUMP WoMEN.-Th New York Ga
zette concludes plea for plump wo-
mem as follows: But whatever educa-
ton our girls have, let us have less of
it. American girls are notorious for
their pallor and frailty and tendency
to Wither and lose their charms at an
early age. This country has no great
er want at the present time than of
plump girls and plump women. Let
us have them plumpa healthy, ,wheth-
er they know anything or not. We
can teach their children what they do
not know, if necessary: by all means
let us have rosy blossoming, solid wo-
men. The Pacific railroad is not half
so important to the prosperity of this
country as the aggregate avoirdupois of
its women. The female sex of Ameri-
ca ought to weigh at least half as much
again as it does.
