A Wedding ,Jnuut

Left Pittsfeld at O'clock in the Ben.
ningtOn stage, intending to 20 to Will
Jamestown. Inside passengers-a new
married couple taking a jaunt. The
lady, with clear pale complexion and
a rather pensive cast of cOuntenance,
slender, and with genteel figure; the
bridegroom a shopkeeper in New York,
probably, a young man with n stout,
black beard, black eyebrows, which
formed one line across his forehead.
They were very loving; and when the
stage stopped | watched them, quite en-
tranced in each other, both leaning
sideways against the back of the coach,
aud perusiDg their mutual eomeliness,
and apparently making complimentary
observations upon it to one another.
The bride appeared the most absorbed
and devoted, referring her whole being
to him. The gentleman seemed in
most paradisiacal mood, smiling inetfa-
bly, upon his bride, and, when she
spoke, responding to her with a be-
nign expression of matrimonial sweet
ness, and, as it were, compassion for
the weaker vessel" mingled with
great love and pleasant humor. 1t was
very droll. The driver peeped into the
coach once, and said that he had his
arm around her waist. He took little
freedoms with her, tapping her with
his cane-love pats-and she seemed TO
see nothing amiss. They kept eating
gingerbread all along the road, and
dined heartily Observation-Disclosures

Virginia Sentiment

We published the other day resolu-
tions unanimously adopted by the peo-
pie of Washington county, on the mo-
tion of that learned and pure jurist,
Hon. S. S. Baxter, appreciating the
purity and patriotism of the gentle
men who recently visited Washington
to avert the evils which threaten the
present and future political and civil
rights of the people of Virginia" and
rendering them their sincere thanks
for their course" This ought to be suf-
iiciently distinct, and yet this county
has been claimed as hostile to the new
movement Smythe and Bland coun-
ties, in Southwest Virginia, have each
held meetings, and indOrsed the new
movement" Nelson county, in Eastern
Virginia, almost unanimously sustains
the movement; and Halifax county,
containing more blacks, we believe,
than any other county in the State, has
put at the head of its delegation Hon.
Thomas S. Flournoy, one Of the original
friends of the proposition. In Essex
county the speaking was all in favor of
the movement, and ex-senator Hunter,
we are glad to see, beads the delegation
to the convention of the 18th of March.
Rockbridge and King George counties
have gone adversely, but the impress
sions so far entirely refute the psint SO
conspicuously made and relied on by
Governor Wells, viz: that the people of
Virginia do not favor the new move
ment. Those who did not understand
it at first are now fast coming to its sup
port. Sensible men are able to see that
a movement and platform so earnestly
opposed by Governor Wells and his car
pet -baggers must have good in it for the
State.-Ndt. Int.

A sportsmau's Parndi.e

We hear that wealthy individual
has purchased one of the islands in Long
Island Sound fer the purpose of con-
verting it into hunting ground. 1t
comprises eleven thousand acres, and,
owing to its distance from any other
point of land-yz: nine miles-small
game placed upon it cannot we'll escape.
The proprietor isnow stocking the island
with prairie chickens, quails, part
ridges, pheasants, larks, rabbits, &c,
&c. In two years time the woods and
openings will be full of game, which will
be supplied to the New York aud Boston
markets. Sportsmen, by paying llber-
ally, will be allowed to visit the island
and indulge in the pastime of cunning.
Though novel, this scheme strikes US
as feasible one, and destined to prove
very profitable to the originator. 1t has
long seemed to US that many of the ISL
ands in the Sound, the lakes, and the
st. Lawrence river, and elsewhere,
might be converted into hunting
grounds, where gentlemen of wealth
could satisfy their hunting propensi.
ties, instead of being compelled, as they
now are, 90 seek the far Western wilds
or prairies.-N York Commercial.

The Yiceroy of Egypt has sent one of
his sons to Paris to complete his edu.
cation" and another to England for the
same purpose. 1t seems that the prac-
tice of economy does not enter into the
Egyptian Severeign's notions of instruc-
ton, for the young Prince located at
Paris has been allowed TO hire for him
self an entire mansion in one of the hrst
quarters at a very high rent, though it
is the custom there, even for wealthy
people, to content themselves with
apartments" The Prince has also
been allowed to spend between 10000
and $4,000 in decorating the interior.
He is now engaged in buying furniture
for it, and what is his notion of the fur
niture needed, it may be judged from
the fact that he has given fS00 for a
single carpet. In his stables he has
already placed three horses, Arab or
thorough bred English, and numerous
carriages of different kinds; and though
wine drinking is prohibited to the dis
ciples of Mahomet, he is having his cell
lar stocked with the very best and con-
sequently the most costly wines.

HOUSE OF DELEGATES.

Opened with prayer by Rev. f. Ball.
Mr.. PINNELL, from the committee on
Elections and Privileges, made report
in the contested case from the Sixth
Delegate District The report set forth
that Mr.. McCraw, the sitting member,
had borne arms in the service of the
Confederacy and was therefore disquali-
fed by reason of disloyalty; that Mr..
Roach, the contestant, was ineligible un-
der the Constitution, having failed to
make proper settlementsin in the matter of
funds coming into his hands as Sheriff
ef Wyoming county.
Mr.. SMITH moved to lay the report
on the table. Motion lost. The evil
dence in the case was read, and after
some discussion the report was adopted.
The House then proceeded to execute
the Joint Order of the day, the election
of United States Senator to take the
place of Hon. p. G. Van Wiukle. The
first ballot resulted a. follows: Arthur
|. Boreman, 43; Daniel Lamb, 10.
Mr.. DUFFY moved to reconsider the
vote by which the report of the commit
tee on elections and Privileges, award.
ing the seat of Rhodes ID. Ballard, from
Logan county, to Ulysses Hinchman,
was adopted. The motion prevailed
yeas, 81; nays, 10.
The question Iecurred on the adop-
tion of the report rejecting Mr.. Ballard
and giving his seat to Mr.. Hinchman,
pending which the House took a recess
until = o'clock.
AFTERNOON SESSION.
Several bills were read a second time.
Among these was the bill exempting
Thomas Ferrell, of ROane county, from
taking the SutOr's Test Oath.
Mr.. LAMB moved to insert after the
name of Ferreil, the words "and all
other PERSONS" the effect being to repeal
the Suitor's Oath. The motion was
lost, but one Republican, (CarrolD vOt-
ing with the Democrats for the propo-
Sitiou.
The House resumed the consideration
of the Logan county contested election
case. The whole of the evidence in the
case was read. The committee rested
their report in favor of the contestant
upon the irregularities of the returns,
the election officers in four out of five
townships having failed to properly
sign the poll books, although they had
signed the certificates of election.
The report rejected the returns from
these four townships and counted only
the fifth. The latter township gave "a
majority for Mr.. Hinchman, being the
only township in the county that SO
voted, and upon this count he was de-
clared by the committee entitled to the
seat. The evidence discussed at length
the loyalty" of the contestant and the
sitting member. 1t was shown that the
contestee had voted for Jefferson Davis
for President of the Confederacy and
had furnished ammunition to the reb-
els. Mr.. Ballard was charged with hav-
ing voted the Democratic ticket at the
Fall election, and with general sympa-
thy with Conservatism, although il as
proved that his sons had served in the
Union army.
After lengthy discussion, the House
rejected the report aud restored Mr..
Ballard to his seat, by vote of yeas 81,

On motion, the contestant, Mr.. Hinch-
man, was allowed his mileage.

4. y. Revenue Omcer Fired At.

From the Cincinnati Times, 2Gth.
From information received, special
United States Revenue Officer James VI.
Waters had cause to believe that an at
tempt was being made to defraud the
Government, by certain persons en-
gagged in distilling on the plank road
west of Millcreek; and to gain positive
information on the subject, yesterday
afternoon paid visit to that quarter
for the purpose Of making a personal
examination; and so well satisfied was
be thEt he concluded, last evening, to
seize Oberhelman's distillery, and for
that purpose started down to there
about o'clock last night, in company
with George Parsons and a deputy.
When they had arrived at point q
short distance below the Gest Street
bridge, they were startled by the sud-
den report of rifle and the whisting Of
bullet in uncomfortable proximity to
their heads.
Concluding that discretion was the
better part of valor, they Immediately
executed a beautiful right-about face
and struck bee-line for 4 more congo
NAL climate. They counted fifteen
shots, the only damage done being a
bullet hole through the coat tail of Mr..
Parsons. The miscreants who fired the
shots were concealed behind an embank
ment, and the detectives bad their
nervous systems SO shocked that they
cannot tell whether there was a compa-
ny, regiment, or brigade of them.

FATAL AFFRAY.
a Young Married Man Shot and
Killed by his Father in-Law.

from the Memphis Avalanche, 26th.l
We learn from Colonel Pryor that a
tragedy of peculiar character took place
at Old Spring Dale, FIVE miles from
Water Valley, last Friday evening, just
after dark, A young man twenty-five
years Of age, named Frank Wilson, was
killed by his father-in-law, Mr.. Isaiah
Goodwin, respectable and well-to-do
citizen. The circumstances were briefly
as follows: H ..- ..
Mr. Wilson having been to Water VAL
ley to sell some cotton, Friday, returned
hDme to his father laws about dark,
in q state of intoxication. At such
times he has always been noted for yio-
lence of speech and actions. He had re-
marked on his way home that when he
got back there would be hi to pay.
After putting away his team he went
ont of his little house, a mere ciice, in
Mr.. Goodwin's yard, and called on the
old gentleman to come out and see him
kill that hog, at the same time flourish
ing his revolver in the air and facing
the house.
: Mr.. Goodwin knew there was no hog
about, and being aware of threats
against his life by his son-iR-law, took
down his gun to be ready to defend him
self Wilson advanced toward the en-
try, and when he got sight of Mr.. Good
win fired at him. The bullet grazed
Mr.. Goodwin's head. He returned the
FIRE from a double -barreled shotgun,
and full load of buckshot took effect
in Wilson's breast, killing him instantly.
An examination was held the follow.
ing day before magistrate, when Mrs.
Wilson testified that her husband told
her several days before that he intend
ed to "kill her old daddy" and similar
threats it was proven had been made
by him at various times and places,
especially when he was drinking. Mr..
Goodwin was discharged of course, as
it was clear case of self-defence. Will
son and his father-in-law had had some
little difficulty a few weeks ago, but
what it was did not appear on the ex-
animation. Wilson had been married
one year only, and besides his wife left
a child.

A Fierce Debate Among the Carpet
! Baggers-sad Affair nt n Wedding.

Fierce DeDHte among the Sufpet-
/ Baggers-sad Affair nt IN Wedding.
Special Dispatch TO the CeurierJournal.I
NASHVILLE, January 30.
A fierce and exciting debate took
place in the House today on the suf-
frage question. 1t was on the queS tion
of adding to the proposed constitutional
amendment proviso looking to the en-
franchisement of such ex-rebels in each
county as would be recommended on
the oath of three loyal citizens.
The measure was considered very
mild, and would probably affect
but small class, but such as
it was it elected the fiercest opposition,
East Tennessee members declaring eX-
citedly that under. no circumstances,
nor at any time in the future, shall
rebels be allowed to vote. In vain the
friends of the measure pointed to the
teachings OF the New York Tribune and
the Republican party of the North; all
such appeals bringing out the bitter
retort that old Horace Greeley and those
who believed with him were nothing
but Copperheads and whitewashed
rebels.
The members of the House who fa-
vored the amendment were denounced
as deserters aud apostates. Those latter
who, by the by, embrace the worth and
intelligence of the body bitterly repel-
led the accusation, and more than once
the lie was given. The discussion,
which continued throughout the whole
day, was fierce aud acrimonious to the
last degree, and at its close the amend
ment was defeated by the decisive vote
of IL TO 10.
In Cornersville, Giles county, a few
days ago, while a young couple were
just on the point of getting married, the
brother of the young lady, who was OPP
posed to the match, fired a pistol
through the window, fatally wounding
the bridegroom. He died in an hour,
but before he expired the lady insisted
on having the marriage ceremony com
pleted.
