himself so far as there are means to
judge, For ourselves we confess to a
suspension of opinion; for at this mo-
ment disclosures of the promises of
Austria are published, and it is by no
means clear that MOltke and Bismarck
did not force the issue upon the En-
peror. We must wait for time to tell
the truth.
And thus ends "this strange, event
ful tale" of "the MAI of Sedan" Moth
ing succeeds like success or fails like
failure. Of both did Napoleon sound
the gamut; and at this hour of mid
night, while writing this rapid survey,
our mind wanders to his coffin at Chi
selhurst; the wife and the child, alone
in their stricken greatness with him
who gave them his name and fame now
as the clod of the valley before them,
and in their great agony of grief fol
the husband and father, the throne lost
and a boy its claimant. What is it all

Am Extraordinary Proceeding.
A BRIDEGROOM IS FRIGHTENED AT THE
ALTAR AND DECLINES TO BECOME A
BENEDICT.

Not many days ago a fashionable up
town rectOry was visited bp a charming
young lady who, with O face sutfused
with bushes, informed the reverend di-
vine that she contemplated e~nteringintO
the holy bonds Of matrimOny, and that
as her fGncee was somewhat retiring in
disposition, and especially sensitive to
any reference to their mutual affection,
she had called to arrange the prelinlina-
ries of their marriage. The minister,
it is scarcely necessary tOsay, a some
what taken aback, but the confused fair
one presented a license made out i'll due
form, and at nj prOceededtO discus
sion Of the all important step.
The day and hour for the ceremony
was fixed, and promptly at the appointed
time the young couple arrived at the
Clergyman's residence. RumOrs of the
union of course spread, and at the mo-
ment agreed upon probably a dozen or
two of the curious had assembled in the
tabernacle. The candidates for nuptial
hOnOrS remained in a sitting room of the
rectory, which, by the by, is in the i'm
mediate vicinity of the church, until the
final preparations were made. The min
lister dOnned his surplice, and repairing
to the church announced himself ready.
Several minutes elapsed, butthe we'd
ingparty didnot appear. The audience
became impatient, and at length ever
the clergyman felt constrained torepeat
his admonitiOn. What was the surprise
of all when the returningmessenger an
nOunced that the bridegroom positively
declined to enter the church. The min
lister visited himpersOnally, and rebuked
him for his apparent lack of decision,
but e~XpOstulatiOn was useless.
The unhappy youth had no objections
to the silken bond, and were the fasten-
ings adjusted in the rectory it might be
done instanter, butte appearin achurch:
and before that crowd of people, was
impossible.
The minister was equally firm, and
stated positively that the ceremony must
take place in the church or not at all
Aftermanytears on the part of the bride
and earnest protestatiOnsfrOm her timid
lover, the sOrrOWing pair departed, and
if rumor is to be credited, they still re,
main in a state Of single blessedness.

H LEGISLATURE.

The sth inst. being a legal holiday, no
business was done in either House.
On the 9th inst, no conclusions were
reached in either House, and the time
of the Senate was principally taken up
with the impeachment trial.
On the 10th inst, six Republican Sem
ators, s.. M. Todd, Fl. L. Swords, L. B.
jerks, Thos. H. holland, Robert Wor-
rel and O. F. Hunsaker, left the Senate
at Mechanics Institute and took their
seats in the Senate of the Peoples Leg
~islature at Odd Felows's Hall-bOth
Legislatures now had a quorum. In
the House, two bills passed i: an act to al
low the city Of New Orleans to con-
struct locks near the mouth Of the New
Orleans canal and Bayou ST. John; and
n providing for the payment of ser
vices rendered by F. j. Heron and J.
w. Fairfax as Secretary of State and
Assistant Secretary of State.
In the Senate, on the 18th inst, a res
olution was passed expelling Senators
Hunsaker, holland and Todd, they
having gone over to the other Legisla-
ture and stated that they had no inten-
ton of again resuming their seats in
this mi A bill was passed fixing the
terms of the Eleventh District Court.
In the House a resolution was adopted
directing the the Committee on elections
to report as 500 as possible the names
of all persons elected as members of
the House, and who are meeting and
acting with the body at Odd Fellows
Hall, and also to report a resolution
providing for declaring their seats va
cant, and calling for an election to fill
those vacancies. Both Houses appoint
ed committees to act jointly in the in
s~tallation of Kellogg and Antoine on
Monday the 18th inst.
On Monday, 18th inst, both Houses
met in joint session and installed Kel-
legg and Antione. The installation of
the Governor took place in the House.
Senator Harris, President of the Senate,
introduced the Governor elect, when he
delivered an address reviewing the pol
itics of the State, the prosperity of New
Orleans, internal improvements, COM
merce with Mexico, the levees, finance,
tax collection, executive patronage, rela-
ton of capital andlabor, and the late cleo
ton. We received the papers contain
ing the address too late to nuhIish il
this week. After he concluded, Chief
Justice Ludeling administered the oath
of Office. Acting Governor Pinchback
then delivered a farewell address tC
both Houses, and formally surrendered
the Office of Governor to Mr.. Kellogg
The Senators then returned to the Sen,
ate Chamber and installed Lieut.. Gov
Antoine.
