On Wednesday afternoon, the 4th inst., a marriage was celebrated with great pump and splendor at Gunnorsbury Dark, near Chiswick, the country seat of Baron Lion el de Rothschild. The contracting parties were the representatives of tho two great— or rather, the greatest—firms of the Roths child family—tin? bride being Miss Leonora, the eldest flaugh:er of Baron Lionel, and the bridegroom Baron Alphonse, tho eldest son of Baron James Rothschild, ol Paris. 1 In* wedding repast was laid out in two large rooms, one ot which was especially built to the dining room for the occasion.— Both wert* decorated with exquisite taste and splendor. The walls were covered with largo mirrors, with mnamentnl trellis work between, up which were twined long gar lands ot flowers, lilies, wreaths of orango emblematic, Flora suit- Tho doctor readily assented, and while he argStior policemen she still guarded her ‘“t.lAt length the doctor with lour police- **** *V iv-d, when our heroine transferred ‘-*ctt*i»dy of both persons and property to • ofl «;r» of the law.

'1’he outer saloons were lighted from the root which w as entirely composed of glass, over the panes of which were stained tinting ol white and pink silk in the form of a Maltese cross. The subdued reseat hue thus shed in to the chamber beneath produced a most beautiful effect. Tables were ranged along th” w hole length ol both opart men ts, and, but that in this ag<‘ ol’progress table turn, instead of groaning, we should have expected them to ienmustrate al the weight of silver which was piled upon them. Great centre-pieces, epeignes, candelabres, race-cups, and mas sive tankards, flower vases and tho chef a iVauvre ot Sevres, Dresden, and Worcester strewed the board in rich profusion. The wedding cuke, a very marvel of sugar arch itecture, was iu thu centre at the top, upon a salver, which tbrsi/.e and weight might have done duly ns u shield tor Archillcs, while behind the seats ot honor rose up n buffet of gold plate—a back ground quite in keeping with the gorgeousness of the whole scene.

A Hard Case Poor people have a hard time in this little world ol ours. Even in matters of religion, there is a vast difference between Lazarus and Dives, us the following anecdote, sent us by a ttioud, will illustrate: Old Billy G had attended a great re vival, nnd, in common with many others, he was “converted" and baptized. Not many weeks afterwards, one of his neighbors met him reeling home from court ground with a considerable brick in his hut. “Hello, uncle Billy," said tho friend, “I thought you had joined the church,” “.So I did,” answered uncle Billy, making a desperate effort to .stand still, “so I did Joemes, and would a bin a good Baptis it they hadn't treated mo so everlasting mean the wuter.

He was sur rounded in a sort of lair beneath a dense cluster of undergrowth like the habitation ol a wild beast, and tilled with the bones nnd skins of cats, which seemed to have consti tuted his principal article of food. For this strange diet he had a peculiar penchant, and .eschewed almost every other. He hunted cats with an avidity, prompted by an extreme voracity, and it was in the pursuit and slaughter ot these animals that he was first discovered. Frequent attempts were made to capture him, but his agility and speed was such that ho appeared to run upon the tops of the bushes, and fences offered no impediment to his headlong course. At length a great number surrounded and secured him. Ho attempted battle, but was overcome. When brought to tho Court House, he presented tho strangest appt: From tbt‘ N\ O. Cr«*coiit. April 2d. Southern Development—Oil from Itoslu. On Hflvrrnl occasions wo have taken plcnsuro in directing tin* attention of the Southern public to an onormous soarcc of wealth—continually reproduct ive and therefore inexhauptible—that they possess in their pine forest, through the manufacture of oil from rosin, according to the process set forth in tho patents granted to Mr. Louis S. Bobbins—to tho fact that tho demand foe oils is continually in creasing. while the supply was decreasintf in nn op posite ratio—and to the nil-hut certainty that to tho pine States of the South must the oirth hero- after look for n great proportion of its supply of an indispensable article. And it has beau some con siderable satisfaction to us to know that our remark* have not been barren of results. Popular atten tion has been pretty thoroughly awakened ; and we are persuaded the great enterprise will not he allowed to languish longer for the want of prompt and liiHUiii support. YVw people, ns we havo observed in previous ar ticles, are aware ot the magnitude ot the consump tion of oil. We, certainly, were not until w« had investigated the subject. Let us glance, by way of illustration, at tho amount consumed by railroads, its cost, and the large sating the new invention promises. Il is estimated that for cvey 100 miles of ance conceivable. His height was about tivc ami a half feet: his hair was long, reddish brown and matted ; his eyes large, grey anil restless ; his linger nails as long as the claws : railroad 20.000 gallons of oil . .. lttMU1 , of a tiger; bis deportment crouching—halt There are, say, 21,000 miles of railroad in the timid, hull threatening—and his garments United Stall'*—consuming, according to the above consisted ot a thousand tatters of cloths, figures, 4,200,000 gallons peryear, which, ni $1 per barks, eat-skins, Ac., bound together by eat! gallon, the lowest price at which any oil lit to use, ** ‘ ‘‘ ‘ except rosin oil, can bo purchased, would roach the largo sum of $4,200,000. This is an immense annual outlay, nnd e tild il he lessened over one- half, n great public good would he superinduced. We are inclined to think rosin oil will hardly rise above the maximum price of filly cents per gallon. For lubricating purposes, then, here is a saving of $2,100,000 auuuuUy to railroads alone, by the in vention and inWodtteMon of rosin oil, where their 'otiHumptinn confined exelnively guts. Hu was from the State ot New York and had been in the woods thirty-six years. While ho was being examined, and was per mitted to stand unbound, he made a sudden spring over the heads ot those who surround ed him, and darted away with the speed of the reindeer. The crowd pursued him, but in vain. Over the hills he fairly flew, be fore tootmen and horsemen, until he. was Inst to them. Nothing has since boon card of him. He is certainly rally a wild man. aed forty, nnd yc 1 Irom the strange being, end is His age cun hardly he has lived ol than, that he has nearly forgotten his language nnd has the most vague recollection ol things. Ho re membered New York but did not know where he was, nor tho term of government under which ho lived. Dr. Knodc was ex amining him when he escaped, anil it is to be regretod that the Doctor could not liavo had the opportunity ot ascertaining the char acter of his mania.

It is quite likely double that quantity will he manufactured and sold thin year. And were tho amount doubly quadruple there would ho no glut in the market ; thu demand so far outstrip* the supply. As the rosin oil mixes readily with all kinds of animal oil, as well iis I ml oil, there ran ho no ques tion a largo amount i* consumed under other minion. We mention this incidentally to give some of the extent the manufacture lias attained. That it will, in a very brief period, work is way into gen eral use, through its adoption to all sorts of machin ery, its intrinsic merit combined, with its cheap ness, and the actual necessity of n substitute for fish oils, seems inevitable. We have examined samples from tho Louisiana Factory, and certainly never saw a morn clear and beautiful oil. It is heavier than sperm, a* well as much finer.
