diamonds that flashed from the ears of the
ladies, and the decorations on the wall
made ii scene not to be forgotten in
night.
At half past twelve o'clock the ladies
were ushered into the supper room, and
everything that could tempt the appetite
OF an epicure was furnished in bountiful
quantities. The festivities were kept up
until the we sma hours of morn ere the as

Another Threat.

We copy he following from the Feicana
R"pubi,can Of las. Saturday
1t was asserted publicly i'll our presence
last sunday, by Captain James Aver.
deputy United States marshal, and all at
tache Of United State, Marshal pacAurd'F
"iirc tbat contributions 10 the amount Of
$-00.0G9 had been raised to maintain
George W. Carter, Speaker Of the House Of
Representatives. ana t!Iat money was tile
instrument by which the Cu>tunhou>e
clique expected to centred the Stale Lcgi5-
Iatmc. To repeal all the laws OF TIE State
obnoxious to the clique, and - secure the
election of that clique in the next cam
paign, money would ie freely used; and if
The people were ~ ie-clcc' the present
executive that martial law would be de-
clared i'll the State, and a provisional GOV
ernor appointed.
These threats are Of such an cNtraor-
binary character that we feel it to be our
duty to lay them before the people.

Its margin is not marked off by rugged
mountain, nor its shore indented with huge
cliffs of stupendous rocks, which overhang
the crystal waters as they gush forth from the
bosom of the earth; but on the north is an
extended meadow; on the east little grove
of tempest beaten oaks which cast its ragged
shadow upon the gitteriug surface of the
