important arts, and every person de-

The St. Paul Daily Times was is
sued on Monday. It is a four page
sheet, with five columns to the page,
all but three Of which are filed with
reading matter, and nearly all the read

Col. D. A. Robertson, who is an excel
lent writer and worthy gentleman, but
who was, unfortunately, dipped in dem
ocratic waters, heels and all, and can
not help looking at everything from the
standpoint of that party. We are glad
to welcome the Colonel in the editorial
field, and hope he will make matters a
little more lively.
In the hurry of making up the forms
of the ADVANCE of last week we omit
ted unintentiona!ly the notice Of the
marriage of A. II. Roseboom, Esq. to
Miss Mary Ballou, only daughter of the
late Hosea Ballou, of Providence, r. L.,
which occurred at Christ church on the
evening of the 9th ult,mo; the cere.
mony being performed by the Rector,
Rev. George Watson. It is not, per-
haps, too late even yet to say that the
ceremony took place in the presence Of
a number of friends of the happy
couple, all of whom wished them joy in
their united voyage on the river Of life.
Joining with these, we beg leave to add
our congratulations and express the
hope that their welded life may be as
happy as mortals can expect.
