WALDORF, Eehruary z6th. 1854
Hr EYitor:-Some two or three weeks ago,
there appeared in the TSDEPENDEsT an item
touching the progress which Mddletown dis
trict was then making in some essential par
tcuars: for instance, the fAttering prospec-
tive success of bachelor B. in some extensive
Thrdshing enterprises an the happ +, matri-
monial anticipatons of a certain hopeful
Judge +. With regard to the eager, searn
ing bachelor, We cannot positively speak, aud
only express the hope that his efforts may
ripen into full and luscious frultion. Com
corning the equally ambitious Judge, however,
we are panied to learn from the most authen-
tic sources, that his JOYOUS expectations are
doomed TO disappointment that no Charming
vista of connubial bliss will open to his rap
.tarous gaze in that halcyon bridal trip to
Florida and that lie must view, if ut ALL this
gorgeous land of flowers companiouless and
alone. We would extend HIM our 81 mpathy
and confidence v erc we not persuaded that
words in such case, are but n mockery of
woe. We can advise, however, where We
cannot comfort or console therefore we sug-
gest to him 10 bear in mind hereafter the phi

his fair companion, we can, IN candor say
that this life would be nearer akin to happi-
ness if heaven would send more visions like
her as as God best gift to man" Pretty
attractive, and winsome she made gentle and
deep impressions upon all who sought her
charming presence, and left behind, at her de-
parture, hearts void of pleasure, but filled to
tue brim with regrets, and longing desires for
a revival Of the enjoy ments which her smiles
occasion and enlivencd.

cree for the sale of certain real estate adjoin-

heirs at law, al of whom are infants under
the age Of twenty-one years, and all of whom,
AS well as the SAID Ann S. Wingste, are non
residents res iding in the city of Washington
in the Distri ct OF Columbia.
The bill further alleges that il will be for the
interest and advan tage of all the parties 10
these proceedings, and especially the aforesaid
infants, to sell the said real estate and invest
the said infants share Of the proceeds in some
productive fund for their benefit.
1t is thereupon ordered By the Court this

Canter, during which Hart was severely, il
not fatally stabbed BY Canter, in the should

and continuing to beat him while down,
whereupon Canter in self defense drew his
pocket knife and stabbed him in several places.
DR.. Williams was called to dress Harris
wounds, and pronounced them Serious if not

THE SAD OF HEART.

There are some hearts which, though exemp
From what the world esteems as woe,
Oft heave with many a bitter pang,
Which ouly they who feel it know.
No sigh of woe, or mark of care
The world upon the brow may trace,
Bat that is the most painful griet
That hides beneath a smiling face.
How many weep DER follies past,
That to the world were never known,
How many hearts in secret sigh
o. or cherished hopes forever flown.
For oft, when others think us glad
We only smile to hide tear.
Aud when the heart is all unstrung,
We laugh to drown a discord there.
