Though Time Ia his rolling cycles bore
away the Order Of Knighthood, Ihe spirit
Of romance was not buried beneath its
ruins. There still fingers in the mind OF
man principles taught by that order that is
lost in the wreck Of ages; and these Drin-
ciples do not always develop themselves
amid oppuence aud splendor, but shoot
forth their bright scintillations even in tie
howell Of penury. Events are constantly
trsnspiring In the backwoods that would
b. exceedingly Interesting to the city maid,
and tend to revive her spirits when sinking
under the WEAKNESS Of a fashionable life,
There was one which took place in this
county on the 2lst ulto., which, to those
accustomed TO pomp aud luxury, would be
quite a romantic and interesting scene.
A new fashion for Wsddings seems TO have
originated the other day, Or not exactly
new, for l believe Que did occur in the same
form previous to the one jast mentioned.
Within no hall Of marble or vina-cOvered
cottage we're the marriage rites celebrated,
but beneath the broad can ,py Of Heaven
the solemn VOWS were pIightsd. The par
ties remained seated IN their horses daring

with the earth would corrode the sivsr chain
which was to bind them together, and cause
its links to work Jaevenly in each other.
Just as evening shade was drawing round

Msssrs. Editors The days Of ehivairy
have long since passed, and We hear no
more Of the youthful knights save in the
legends Of former times and romantic tales
Of autiquity. The steel-eisd warrior calmly
r,uoses upon the bIOod-stained plains Of
palestine, or sweetly sleeps within the
bowers where he once listened TO the care
soothing song Of his lAdy.love. The maiden
too. haa passed to rest, and while her dust
i mingliug with THAI Of her lover, the gen
uixht-oird warbles song above her lorsy
rrave, and bids the modern belle initiate
the adslity Of the silent sleeper.
All the relics that remain Of thasa ehiv-
.l-aus days are the weather beaten walls Of
castles that have withsiood the storms OF
earth for centuries and as the wind whistles
through - Ivy that hangs upon those tune

G-Eersi Butler dropped his satchei and
placed his kIdded hands Ia the pockets OF
the porter's roundabout. Then casting one
eye upon his satchsl, and throsing tho gaze
of the other eye into MerriaIn's blue orbs,
he said:
Sc Loud me a hundred dollars. I want to
buy an under coat and an OvercOat, and l
want TO get back to Boston,"

Gen. Merriam started back a. if struck
BY a cluh, and BOXED at Butler 1s if he
doubted his identity. At this moment an
elderly gentleman approached Gen. Butler

headed cane, and pointing to an immense
trunk near the head Of the stairs. said --
.'H-re, my aae fellow, hoist that trunk
up to Ia for me right away, and be quick
about it, will youf"
Gen. Merriam at this sprang forward and
threw several profane sdjectives at the gen.
tlenan for insulting Gen. Butler. The old
gentleman, who was hard Of hearing,
wanted to know what in the world the but
ler of the hotel was doing with q porter's
badge. and why he carried leather chips
upon his shoulders, il 10 wasn't to keep the
trunks from cutting his collar-bone. Gen.
Butler looked troubled, but Gen. Merriam
shouted an explanation at the top of his
voice. and the venerable gentleman, after
an apology, sought baggage smashsr else
where. .t.--
WHY HE WANTED A HuSDaED DOLLARS.
A second time General Butler askod his
| friend Merriam for the loan of hundred
dollars, promising TO refund il on his return
To Boston. He said that his coat and over
coat had been stolen from the slesping-caT
at Philadelphia, while on his way from
Washington to this city. When hs got up

He borrowed a coat from a negro porter

LAVE WE A REPUBLICAN FORM OF GOVERNMENT >
Thursday in the very interesting argument in the Sixth
District Court, the mandamus sued out against the
Governor to compel him to sign and deliver certain
bonds claimed by parties who hold contract from the
State, Judge Cooley asked the counsel of the Governor
II he could point out any provision in the constitution
OF the State which recognised the division of the pow
ers into three coordinate departments. Mr. Dibble
being unable to designate such provisions the Judge
remarked that he knew it had been intentionally omit
ted AS the Judge the most active and intelligent
member of the convention of 1868, bis testimony on
this point must be received conclusive. 1t is re-
markabe statement of the characteristics of the
republican form of government is the division of the
powers OF the government into three coordinate de-
partments Without this feature, the government is
not republican. 1t is the test of republicanism If,
therefore, it does not exist in the constitution of 1863
that does not give us republican form of govern
ment BY the Federal Constitution, such form of gov
eminent is guaranteed to all the States No State can
be constutonay admitted into the Union without the
recognition of this essential quality of republicanism
1t follows, therefore, that whole State government

be declared by the Supreme Court of the United States
