A FUNNY HONEYMOON.
A Young Husband and Wife Quarrel
About a Ring.--Wlnding up the
Honeymoon UneeremOninusly.

a few weeks since a young man
aud woman, both tolerably well to
do In the world 40 far a= money is
concerned, were married, aud after
the ceremony they proceeded to
Philadelphia to spend the honey
moon. All was serene for time
aud the most sapient of birds as
sumed an elevated position. How
ever, the return of the new husband
tN this city few days since, unac-
com panied by his bride, oecasioned
much gossip, aud led To inquiries as
To- er absence, which revealed the
fact that she was yet I'm Philddel-
phia, at the residence of a relative.
The story Is told that while In that
city the newly married couple quar-
relied over the possession of "A seal
ring, which the groom had given the
bride during an early stage of the
courtship, hut it was now claimed
Ivy him, AN 4 he forcihly attempted To
take IL from her. She resisted. nn
eslrangement ensucd, and the groom
proceeded To- another hotel, while tho
bride went To the residence of her
aunt, The former returned To thia
city shortly aiterward, and the lat-
ter still remains at that city, culoy-
| ing the honeymoon without the aid
of her fractlous aud parsimoni0us
| husband. The ludicrnus affair has
given rise To much merrimenJ
among those acquitted with the par
| ties, and the story has slipped out Of
the hands of tlIe relatives of the
pair, and thus got newspaper circu-
| Iation. There is no doubt but that
the difficulty will, in due time be-
adjusted satisfactorily. .--- Pittsbur0

Propositions Made.


After much talk and general interest in
regard to this subject, something like tangi-
bic action has at last been had Il will be
remembered that some time since Mr..
Adam Wolfe, the Collector of Customs at
this port, under instructions from the Sec
rotary of the Treasury, advertised for pro-
posals for the purchase of the present Gov
eminent lot, or exchange on equal terms
OF other suitable property for the same.
The time fer the acceptance Of these pro.
posals closed at II o'clock NJ. on Saturday
last. The bids-were on Saturday afternoon
opened. Yesterday Major Enos Hopkins,
d. w. Peabody and Adam Wolfe, the COM
mittee to which they were referred, and
who have to make report upon the same
to Washington, had protracted conference
at the office of Mr.. Wolfe. Sixteen propo-
sitions were made for sites for the Custom
house, none of which were bids for the pur-
chase of the present lot. The'committee
informs us that but six out of the sixteen
proposals made come within the speeifca-
tons of the Secretary of the Treasury, and
there being no offers for the purchase of
the present lot, they are left without discre-
ton as regards the purchase of a site, the
proceeds of the present lot being all the
funds they are authorized to appropriate
IN the premises. The six lots Of
fered in exchange, and which come
within the required specifications,
are one from John NJ. Bass, on the corner
of Church street and Polk avenue; Mrs.
NJ. @. Stones lot, corner of Church and
Vine streets; lot of W. p. Jones, corner
of Vine and Broad streets; q lot of w. H.
Gordon and Others, corner of Broad and
Summer streets; lot belonging to Henry
NJ. Spafford, on Summer street adjoining
she last named lot, and lot by II. G..
Scovel, corner of Summer and Gay streets.
We learn from the committee that, while
they regret that no lot has been offered in
exchange nearer the business center of the
city, still they believe that the Government
will be able to make selection and will
build on some of the lots proposed.
The gentlemen will make an early report
upon the propositions made, when imme-
diate action will most likely be had. Mr..
Mullet, the supervising architect, viii in
all probability be in the city soon after the
report upon the propositions reaches Wash
ington, and if either of them be accepted,
operations upon theproposed building will,
it is thought, be commenced forthwith.

Correspondence Of the Louisville Courier-Journal.
WASHINGTON, D. c., March SIT has
bcen settled, for the present at least, that
Congress will not lay hands on Tennessee.
And vet, there was imminent danger at
one time that the State would be dis
mantled. Butler took the initiatOry steps,
Mt the instigatiOn of BrOwnlOw and those
other imps of the devil, Maynard, Arnell,
and their congressional associates, and a
few malcontents in the State. These
conspirators had agents to hunt up and re-
port every disturbance, or semblance OF
wrong. that had occurred within the past
three years, and these, with "outrages
manufactured to order, together with the
statements of the altered condition
made bv delegations of negroes and de-
GRADED whites. summed up their stock In
Trade They had their effect; but the
nromnt correction of the stories by army
OFFICERS in the State, and the protest of a
few respectable men there who affiliate
with the Radicals against Congressional
interference, upset the programme so ut
terly that now reaction has taken place,
and it is scarcely possible for the conspi-
rators to consummate their designs during
this session of Congress. CoDgressmen
from Tennessee excepting Hawkins) had
in view chiefly their own reelection, with
out which their return is impossible, but
also shared with Butler the idea of raising
the devil generally. AS it is, not one Of
them will be reelected from that State,
Maynard, however, will get some fat OF
/ fee. He is a valuable member of thu
Radical parry, holding himself ready a
all times to do the bidding of his party

LOST AND FOUND,

4 Stranger Visits the City, Gets Be
VViIdered and Loses Himself and
Money.
A Kentucky merchant who arrived in the
city few days since by the steamer Burks-
vile, for the purpose of buying goods, I'M
fortunately for himself bought too much OF
something else, became bewildered, lost or
deposited his watch and money with some
body he could not remember, and was in a
bad fix generally. His friends at home,
becoming uneasy in consequence of his
protracted stay, sent personal description
to the chief of police here, with the request
that he be found and returned home. The
description was placed in the hands
of officers Mansfield and Haslam, who,
after short search, found the unfortunate
man, and succeeded also in regaining most
of his money and gold watch worth $50.
The larger portion OF his money, $500, had
been deposited with a gentleman in the
city, who had not been able to find the
owner again until the matter was placed in
the hands Of the police. The lost man and
his regained treasure were yesterday sent
home in careful and trusty charge.
