Mrs. Hunter was carrying two
bundles aboard the day boat tor AL
bany, in New York, when Mr.. Sny.
der kindly relieved her OF half the
burden. On deck they sat down to-
gether, and as they sailed up the
Hudson they rapidly grew well &C
quainted, though previously total
strangers. He was widower, aged
81, and an Ulster county farmer
she was a widow, aged 80, and a
seamstress in New York. He
asked her to marry him. She
was surprised, but not offended.
She asked for time to think the mat
ter oyer. Certainly-he would give
her until the boat reached Newburg.
Then she must go ashore with him
and get married, or stay on board
and remain single. Just as the
plank was about to be hauled in at
Newburgh, she said EYES," and the
couple went off with the two bum
dies. A justice performed the cere-
mony. and Mr.. and Mrs. Snyder
travelled on by rail.

The Strausses and Their Music.
[0Gathv in the Cincinnati Enquirer.l

In Vienna L went to hear Edward
Strauss, one of the three noted
Jewish brothers who have composed
dance music, lead his orchestra at
the Volks Garten, near by the palace.
This is a flat, enclosed piece of
ground, shaded with horse chestnut
and other trees, with pretty walks
aud hedges, and with two music
stands opposite each other, one of
which has attached TO it sort OF
restaurant hotel for balls and sup
pers. At this latter music stand
Strauss led his fiddlers to his own
tunes and those of his brothers, j ohm
and Joseph, about half the music
played was of the Strauss tamily's
composition. Edward is fine
looking man, with a dramatic adj
dress, rich Jewish eyes and black
hair his clothes are carefully made.
He leads his orchestra i'll a dance
fashion, moving his feet and knees
as if he could scarcely keep from
Waiting while he hands the baton.
The music of the Strsusses is volup
tuous, confidential, insinuating, CO.
quoting and pretty, but tolerably
shallow, and made altogether for
the feet and fingers. The audience,
as a matter of politeness, always
applauds the Strauss compositions.
A military band IN the other stand
alternated with this string music,
and seemed to me like bands every
where, to have great deal of brass
Gathering and din of drums. There
we're some geutle, graceful people
in the audience, which, toward 8
O'Clock, numbered nearly one thou
sand but the cyprians, in considers
BILE number, paraded up and down
the walks in pairs and threes aud
singly, and lurked around the envi-
rons, tasting their beer and waiting
to be addressed. l think L paid
sixty cents to go into this concert,
which was listened to outside by
several thousand free-list patrons,
who could hear the music just as
we'll as were we within.

SPEAKING. of the troubles in the
tenth congressional district, the
Henderson Times says:
Judge Hancock's misfortune is
that he swerves not a hair breadth
from the principles of his party and
from his own convictions for policy
or for personal gain, and hence an
tagonizes time-servers and bourbons
in his own and in the entire rank
and file of the opposition parties.
However, it is believed the acknow-
lodged ability and conservative
character of Judge Hancock, and bis
consistent course upon the currency
question, will obtain for him the
support of a great number of Ger
man voters, who have usually sup
ported the Republican party. 1t is
also not expected that the extremists
of the Democratic party opposed to
Judge Hancock nor the personal

The drainage of Lake Okeecho-
bee, Florida, is going on success
fully. The dredge boat was enter
ing Sake Heckpochee and encoun-
tered a tremendous waterflow on
the 10Th ult. This lake is within
three miles of Okeechobee lake, is
about three miles long and naviga-
BILE. 1t is said that the drainage
from this point will reclaim a very
large body of the finest sugar lands
at once, and the inhabitants of that
region are rejoicing over the
achievement.

Charlotte North Carolina) OF

Charlotte North Carolina) o.
seyver: Beyond a doubt the best
strike yet made at any of the gold
mines in this vicinity, was made last
Thursday at the Capps Hill mine
five miles from the city. The vein
discovered at the bottom of the low.
est level measures seven feet in width
and is mostly soft brown ore, of an
exceedingly rich quality. No assay
is needed to show that the ore is oil
the richest sort. The vein is said to
be the most remarkable ever devel.
oped in this region of the gold belt
Capt. John Wilkes, the owner of this
mine, is clever man and an enter
prising citizen, and we congratulate
him on his good stroke, at the same
time wishing that he might make
millions out of it.

Daily Review OF the Market.
DAILY STATESMAN OFFICE,
D

AUSTIN, sept. 70, 1857. ]
CoTToN.-Our quotations are down to-
day M@Lc, Notwithstanding which the
market has been fairly active. Discuss
ing the question of the decline being tenn
porary or otherwise, it Is well to note the
remarks of the New Orleans 7Imes-DemO-
crGt of Sunday:
"Spots were firm here, with sales of
1000 bales, but this firm feeling was at
tributable more to the sn,allness OF stocks
than anything else, as Liverpool was dull
all around. Futures showed little varIa-
ton here, but declined fourteen points on
September at New York. The movement
in this market was moderate, while at
New York it was liberal"
The Liverpool advices to New York
caused considerable furry In futures,
and a sharp decline, only partially recover
ed, took place. Short crop reports or
limited supply in sight, need not, in our
opinion, have any weight In looking for
fancy prices on the staple this season.
BACON is in demand everywhere, and
all the markets seem to be quite bare.
In all our city market reports we aim to
give prices based on actual transactions,
preferring to give the actual prices at
which the goods quoted were sold on the
day of the quotations than to state price
above or below the matket, in the belief
that 1t will attract business to the city.
The prices of the various commodities are
given by the wholesale dealers In the
city, and there is most remarkable
agreement In the prices of leading houses
In the same line.

governor FOSTER seems to be solid in
regard to the new liquor law in Ohio.
He says: "If the issue be made, and this

the right direction, and predict that
even democratic Legislature will not
