A MEXICAN WEDDING.
One of the correspondents of tho Picayune
give* tho following interesting description of a wed
ding which he attended lately in Camargo. We
publish it that the grown-up and rising generation
of marriageable young onee insy sec the difference
of initnhera and custom* there and here. The
ladies, particularly, who feel an interest in matters
pertaining to a certain ceremony, will bo amused at
the manner of Uimling the parties neck and neck
with an actual silken cord. Tho letter, however,
will speak for Iteelf.
Camargo, Aug. 11, 1846.
A Mexican wedding is to come off in the
church to-morrow night nt 1 o’clock, and I
am going to form ono of the party. This
getting married, at “the solemn hour of mid
night,” i* » new idea to tne, and 1 would not
mis* the acene fot any consideration. Will
they invite one to kiss the bride, 1 wonder ?
And il invited, ought a fellow to profit by
the privilege? But wo will ace tho bride
helote we decide these momentous t)ues-
tions.
j Capt. Miles, oil being informed of the wish
j »f the puny to hold tho wedding to-night,
! extended to them every facility for going
j through with the ceremony unmolested.—
Had he received information a little earlier,
he would have furnished them with music,
so that a regular hall would have taken place.
Aug. It!.—1 attended (ho wedding last
night, and shall never icgrct it, though it is
lather hard lo be roused out of a sound
sliitubci at l o’clock at night. At half-past
one we entered the chinch, where the padre
and his assistants were already robed for the
ceremony. These assistants consisted of an
elderly Mexican and four boys, the latter
being three fourths Indian. The altar was
lighted in'! with long wax candles set in mas
sive silver candle sticks, and candles were
also burning in the vicinity of the large wax
figures in other parts of the building. The
Inidegroom soon made his appearance with
the bride, uitended by h bridesmaid and
gfooinxiitaii. The bridesmaid, a beautiful
little woman, was dressed in black—a prettier
figure I never looked at. The bride, a tall,
awkward, plain-looking woman of twenty-
j three, was dressed in dark figutedstuff. The
; bridegroom, a short, stumpy fellow, about
i 30 years old, with an ugly visage, hud on
j white pan s and a blue lound.thoul. lie
looked confused, and took veiy little notice
: ol the bride ; in fact, lie acted like a man
who fell that he was getting himself into a
disagreeable situation. The first part of the
ceremony was similar in that observed in
May fi. 1846.

being alive—one iunniog from bit lellow
sowed up in the skin, and he living to catch

PURCHASING A LIVE LOBSTER.
BY TUB YOUNG'UN.
[From the " Spirit of tbe “ Times.")
A raw looking henutv—standing some six
feet nnd more, in hit boots*-fresh from (he
inferior, arrived hi town [Philadelphia] a day
or two since, with e view to examine the
lions" in the City of Friends.
He had walked leisurely round Girard Col
lege—his “ wondering gaze" had been grati
fied with a peep nt the Brunch Mint, where
n common looking chap “ mnde money" a
darned sight faster than he ever could,—he
had seen the old Uoited Slates Bank, but, for
the life of him, couldn’t find the place where
it had busted!—lie had enunteied through
Fairmouut, where some 'cute feller was
squirting water round, most beautiful—he
had marehed around the outskirts of the
Penitentiary, but they weren't sharp enough
to get him in, there—oh, no!—he had,(rot
ted through the Mnsem, which he didn't
consider any very “ great shakes"—and, just
before leaviog in the eight o'clock train, foi
home, he strollod down to the Market-house,
to ascertain, if possible, where all the vege
tables nnd things went lo.
Having examined the premises for some
time, lie suddenly halted before a wagon
which stood near by, the floor of which was
covered with about a score of live lobstets,
wriggling und tumbling over each other- lie
was unfortunately afflicted with a habit of
stammering. After watching tho '* sight" for
several minutes, lie slided up to tho owner, at
Inst, with—
Wo-wo wot’* thorn, Mister ?*•
Lobsters, Sir."
Lo lo lobsliss /"
Yes, Sir. Werry fine."
W-wul—I've heern tc-tell 'o lobsliss."
IJcxcellrnt heatin', Sir—is lobsters.—
Hev'tirn, Sir ?"
YV-wu-wul, I rcck'n—y y-yes. Wo-
wot's tlm damage ?"
Three levies Sir."
How d—d—how do you eai lo-lob-ob-
stiss?”
Villi yer teeth, pooty gin'ral, Sir."
1 Y'ye-yes. But coo-coo-*ook 'em, I
mean.”
Oh, Bile 'em, Sir—hile'en. Thnnk'ee :
jest the change"—added tbe wagoner; nnd,
depositing the *' tin" in his " shot bag," lie
placed the •* lobsliss in the hands of its law
ful owner.
Tho stranger bade the seller good day,
placrd his prize under Iris arm, tail down-
ards—and started for the Rail Road Depot
hi Market Slteet.
Tho lobster was "fresh caught" (it so
chanced,) and proved very unruly— xquitm-
ing and writhing about; our countryman was
constantly adjusting Ilia burthen, utitilhehnd
finally tnauagdd to raise its claws on a line
witlt the side of his own head.
Suddenly one of the ciitter’s flippers ex
tended and closed again with a smart smack ;
grasping in its clutch, the greater portion of
the poor fellow's right ear!
An indescribable twist pervaded the coun*
try man’s phiz—his teeth became set in an
instant—and lowering his head, ho started
into a rapid walk—with—
"•“•'oil rot him ! Oil—ili-tinder!—Le*le-
go ! B b bin-blast yur pictur ?—don't—ougli!
Mur-m-murder— murder! /"
A bevy of youngsters had discovered the
pour devil's ptedication, as he rushed along
the walk, and lie soon quickened his pace
into a sharp trot, making good headway to
wards the Depot, the lobster dangling from
the side of ins head like a huge old fashion
ed ear drop! As the crowd gathered on
Iris track, liu increased his speed to a "dead
run"—still bawling, at the lop of Ills lungs—
"Oil Lord!—la-la lake him off! M-m-
mur dar /—Cu cu cuss him! Take him
dow-d-'own!"
"Go if. Boots!" shouted the crowd.
" Pit pu-'ull the c c-cuasied varmint oft !
Ta-'ako him back !—I d-d don’t wit 'ant no
lo In-'olisfiss"—and stopping suddenly, be
foie a benevolent looking Quaker gentleman
upon tbe walk, lie begged him to take tho in
fcrnal viper away !
Thn countryman's ear resembled a purple
ripe plum, when ihe kind-lteatted gentleman
seized the claw and relieved him of his load.
As thn circulation of blood resumed, (he un
happy victim bestowed on his benefactor a
kind of a smile (unable to articulate a syl
lable) such a smile as ono might suppose
would result from screwing an inch argur
through the spine of a turn's back.
Our unfortunate friend was grateful, but
lie couldn't speak. It was now the turn of
ilie Quaker gentleman lo smile—because he
couldn't help it—the object before him ap
pears so perfectly ludicrous. But his was a
bland smile of sympathy, such an one as only
a Quaker can bestow.
But our benevolent triend in the broad
brim, was careless—he was ! In his effort to
aid the unlucky countiyman, lie had secured
the Ibbster by the claw, and lie still held him,
dangling at his side.
" Hurt thee much, friend ?"
" ■ -Blast him!—ooh!"
" The shouldn't swear, friend," quietly re
sponded the Quaker—but as ho concluded
(his sentence of advice, a most unearthly
scowl shot across direst grimaces ! The lob
ster closing his claw had clutched the Qua
ker's fingers till the blood startsd under the
nails!
** — rgh—Oh, dear me—Ow .'—the scamp,
take him awray. Sir!"—shrieked the Quaker,
nearly fainting with pain.
" Da dw d——d ef I do"—
“ Take him Sir"—
"N-nno yer don’t! Yer gcr-gu-gut
him ch eapcr'n I did—c-cost me three ah-
■li-shtllins; but it's n-» no matter about
that."
" He's a vicious creciur."
" S-s-so I thought—m-m-mister."
"There!" added the Quaker, ut last;—
and disengaging the monster from his hand,
lie dashed it to the ground.
A news-boy secured the lobster, to which
no sort of objection was made by the injured
patties.
A crowd had collected around the scene,
and the countryman at last bethought him of
the Cars. The clock commenced striking
eight—tho Quaker disappeared—and our
friend dashed into the Depot, at the sound of
the " Inst bell"—swearing as plainly as hit
excitement would permit, that he had " had
e nu nu 'ou&K of li ve lo^obstiss.'*•

lr. U. carriaa inlo lha houae, ia taken earn

usually made from that which i, partly worn,
and ihe work done by ihe induatrioua wife

many wo know, she never wanes her lime at-

are of no profit. Tbia ia the aeorat of neigh

Young men who ure looking for compan
ions, should be particular io their choice if
they wish to succeed through life. Some
persons arr carried away with a fine roice, a
pretty ball room dancer, a laxy flirt, without
inquiring inlo hei domestic qualiliea. Tl.is
is lilt reason why io many young men suc
ceed no betler. and become bankrupt. The.r

A giil must be employed in lha kitchen at

Remember this, and when yon look out

Sonars or Education.—Gold io more
frequently found in grains iban in lumps, and
it is not less valuable on lhat account. So
wiih knowledge. Fragments when uoiled,
make lip the intellectual storehouse. John
Arinins said, in an epistle lo hit wife—‘ The
education of our cliildrea is never out of my
tnind. Train iheni lo virtue. Habituate
them to industry, activity, and spirit. Make
them consider every vies shameful and un
manly. Fire them with ainbitiun lo be use

any thing useful. Make them disdain to bo
destitute of any useful or ornamental knowl

tion : ' In every age even among the heathen,
tltc necessity lias been felt of having good
school masters, in order to make any thing
respectable of a nation. But surely we ara
lint lo sit still and wait until they grow up of
