BlaIne's Domestic Relations.

A letter is published from Mr.. Blaine
which furnishes the following explana-
ton Of the charge made against him by
an Indiana paper;
AT Georgetown, Kentucky. in the
apring OF 1845, when I was but 10 years
Of age, first met tho lady who for more
than thirty -four years has been my wife.
our acquaintance resulted ut the end Of
six months in an engagement, which,
without prospect OF speedy marriage,
We naturally sought to keep to ourselves.
Two years later, in the spring Of 1850,
when was maturing plans to leave my
profession in Kentucky, and establish
myself elsewhere, was suddenly sum
moned to Pennsylvania by the death OF
my father. 1t being very doubtful il I
could return to Kentucky, was threat
cned with an indefinite separation from
her who possessed my entire devotion.
NY one wish WINS to secure her to myself
by an indissoluble tic against every pos
sible contingency in life.
Accordingly, on tho 30th day Of
June, 1850, just prior to my departure
from Kentucky, we were in the presence
Of chosen and trusted friend, united
by what knew was in my native State
OF Pennsylvania, a perfectly legal form
Of marriage. On reaching home found
that my family, and especially my moth

piled with her wish that should re-
sumo. Mt least for time, my occupation
IN Kentucky, whittier l returned in the
Inter part OF August
During the ensuing winter, induced
by misgivings which were increased by
legal consultations, I became alarmed
lest doubt might be thrown upon the
validity OF our marriage by reason of
non compliance with the law of the
State where it had occurred, for l had
learned That the laws of Kentucky made
license certificate by the clerk OF the
county court an indispensable requisite
OF legal marriage, After such delibera-
ton, and with an ANXIOUS desire TO guard
In the most effectual manner against any
embarrassment resulting from our posi-
ton for which alone was responsible
we decided that the simplest and at

riage service performed. This was done
in the city OF Pittsburg in the month OF
March, 1851, but was not otherwise made
public for obvious reasons. 1t was So
lemuized only to secure an undisputa-
bile validity, the first marriage being by
my wife and myself always held sacred.
AT the nge Of "a, l do not defend the
wisdom or prudence of the secret mar
riage suggested by the ardor and mex

A WILD. RICH COUNTRY.

st. Abercrombie reports some interest.
ing facts in regard to the country ON the
Yukon river in Alaska. A wonderful
stream it is for the volume Of water it
discharges, and how much more of its
length remains to be measured, besides
the ZOO miles already explored, cannot
well be calculated. 1t has been found
rich in p~lacers. and the st. states that
miners can clean up $50 a day each along
its banks. The disadvantage is that the
season for gold-working is short. Yet
with the prospect held out. the glitter Of
new and extensive gold fields, it is not
unlikely that exploring parties will be
long in sailing north to test the find.
There are thousands of restless men and
millions of eager capital keen for every
thing new in speculation.

The San Francisco Bulletin says: The
newspaper discussion over the State of
Nevada question was started by the New
York Herald, because it did not appear
to be exactly right, to the minds Of the
conductors of that journal, that so small
a community should have the same power
in the Senate Of the United States as
that of the great State Of New York. OF
course, all the other States have Just as
much right to make the same complaint.
The grievance, if any exists, is the same
all around, the only difference being that
Of degree. If the caliber of the Senators
chosen were a legitimate part of the in-
quiry, the case would perhaps be re-
versed. and Nevada might assume with
propriety the role Of an injured SOW.

she has in her short career contributed

The Three Brothers

When quite young man, | taught a
school in district called Town Hill in
Eden. IL was one of the largest schools on
Mt. Desert Island. In that school were
three brothers. Better boys than those three
brothers, | never met with anywhere. In
school, they were studious and obedient; F.;
and their conduct out of school, was all that
could be desired. They had no bad habits,
and no complaints were brought against them
during the term of school. They grew up
TO be men; and ii am not mistaken, they
all became school teachers, and made good
reputation for themselves in the school
room. Two, if not all three Of them, have
been members of the State Legislature, and
one Of them member of the Senate. They
we're loyal during the war, and have acted
with the Republican party ever since. They
have been strictly temperate. honest and in
dus,rious, and have had fair prosperity in
business They have held various Offices in
the town aud have been able TO give good
account of their stewardship. How true it
is, that good boys generally make good
men. Education enlarges a Young mans
influence, but may not improve its quality.
