The room was crowded by the beauty and fashion of the town, and none looked more dignified or happy than the judge himself, who was dressed within an incli of his life. The company roared. Joe and Nancy weakened. The sheriff was taken with a leaving. The Judge let himself out loose in a glass of applrjack. It was the greatest wedding ever witnessed. A College Joke.

The young gentlemen desired to know how “Joe” would stand it, and the young ladies were anxious to see how "Nance" would suffer the anxious shock. Others again, who had closely observed the turn of affair during the evening, fixed their attention upon the judge to see how he would come out of the scrape. At lenght the trying moment was announ ced, the judge arose very cautiously from the |fact, he was a shallow-brained, lily-handed ! fop, and, as may be supposed, a great favor- |ite with a certain class of ladies who mistake |impertinence for wit, and fine clothes and af- |fected manners for refinement and solid ac- complisnments. jBut to our tale. Tom, was one day walk- ;ing down street arm in arm with his friend, John Smith, who had a spice ofthe wag about him Seeing the President a few paces before them, Tom hastily inquired. Smith, what is ‘good-morning, sir’ ’in Lat- in ?” chair, which he had occupied in one corner "Ego sum stultus," was the reply, without of the room, and, casting his eye over the a moment’s hesitation. company, he singled out the sheriff of the county, who was present as an invited guest.| The judge had imbibed just enough to make him forget the nature of his- business. He was full of his “judicial talk," and required| nothing but the presence of the sheriff to start him. Looking sternly at the officer, lie i shouted : "Mr. Sheriff, open the court and call or der.” A general titterfollowed tins command, in the midst of which he sheriff took the “ court”| gently by the arm,ind led him to his seat in the corner, at the time informing the august per sonage of tlie mistike. Everything now bid fair for tlie pleasant| and sudden termination of the affair, until another annoyance which was nothing less than the absence of the bridegroom was ob- served. It turned out that he had just step ped across the street to join his friends in a parting drink, but before his return some cold-blooded wag had whispered in the car of onr fogy the cause of “ delay in the pro- ceediags.” Tustantly the chair in the cor- Meeting tlie President, Tom, after the most approved style of donkeyism, at the sams time making a profound salaam, greeted him with, "Ego sum stultus 91 “I’m aware of it,” responded the Presi- dent making a slight bow. This proving rather unsatisfactory, Tom posted off to the room of his friend Byles, whom lie saluted with— “Deacon, what is the translalation of this sentence—‘Ego sum stultus 91 “ I am a fool 91 responded the unsophisti cated “Deacon.” This told tlie wole story. As novel wri ters say, Tom’, a phelinx may be more easily imagined than described.

We chew tobacco, the Hindoo takes to lime. The children of this country delight in candy, those of Africa in rock salt. A Frenchman « goes his length” on fried frogs, while an Exquimaux Indian thinks tallow the climax of dainties. The last conundrum is, “ what is tlie differ ence betwen a mule and a postage stamp?" You lick one with a stick and stick the other with a lick. A thrifty wife wonders why men can’t do .something useful—mightn’t they as well amuse themselves smoking hams as cigars? Guess they might.

COTTON BURNED.—We learn from a pas- senger that a quantity of cotton, some one hundred and fifteen or one hundred and twen ty bales, took fire on the Central railroad, yesterday, and were entirely consumed. The accident occurred at a point between twelve and fifteen miles from the city, and was caused, it is supposed, by a spark from the engine. The twelve o’clock up passenger train was obliged to return to the 'city in consequence of the road being impassable at the place of the fire. Our informant says that Mr. Adams, the superintendent of the road, having received information of the acci- dent, was promptly on the spot with hands to repair the damage, which would be comple ted in time for the passage of the evening trains.—Savannah News Nov. 11, Ix A BAD Fix.—An Oregon widow thus writes her experiences during her sojourn on the Pacific coast :—"I have indeed been most unfortunate ; both of my arms are slight ly palsied, each of my legs has been broken, and my health is generally bad: I have had four husbands in my time, but they all up and died poor things, and I had four yoke of oxen, and the cussed Indians stole and cat them.

Southern Literary Messenger ONE OF THE CITEA PEST PUBLICA TINOS IN THE COUNTRY. TWO VOLUMES A YEAR, Each containing at least 480 pages, in neat style, with fine Cover, and Advertising Sheet. The Two Volumes furnished for Only Three Dollars a year! For the year 1858. Twenty-Sixth and Twenty-Seventh Volumes. In issuing the Prospectus of the Twenty-Sixth and Twenty-Seventh Volumes of the SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER, commencing with the January No., the Proprietors beg to assure the public that no exertions will be remitted on their part to maintain the high character of the work, and to challenge the patronage of all who value sterling literary merit. For Twenty-Three Years, the Messenger has endeavored to reflect faithfully the Southern mind, while disdaining all narrow and sectional views, and lias been alone among the monthly periodicals of America, in defence of the Peculiar Institutions of the South- erm Country. To this office it will still be devoted, and will be prompt to repel assaults up on the South, whether they come under the spe- cious garb of fiction, or in the direct form of anti- slavery pamphlets. At this critical juncture, while our enemies are employing literature as their most potent weapon of attack, the Southern peo- pie will surely notwithhold their encouragement from a work whose aim it shall be to strike blows in their defence. The MESSENGER will, as heretofore, present its readers with Reviews, Historical and Biograph- ical Sketches, Novels, Tales, Travels, Essays, Po- ems. Critiques, and Papers on the Army, Navy, and other National Subjects. With a view to ensure a large circulation of the Messenger, the Proprietors have reduced the price of Subscription, which is now only Three Dollars per Annum, in advance, or Four Dollars paid before the first of July in any year. CLUBS—Remitting us Fifteen Dollars letter, will be entitled to Six Copies. The Editorial and Critical department if in of not one the Messenger will continue under tlie charge of JOHN R. THOMPSON, ESQ. And will embrace copious notices on current lit erature and reviews of all new American or For eign works of general interest and value. Tlie Editor’s opinions will be always fearlessly and honestly avowed. The Business Department is conducted by the undersigned, to whom all communications of a business nature must be addressed.

PETERSON’S MAGAZINE, THE BEST AND CHEAPEST IN THE WORLD FOR LADIES. This popular Monthly, in consequence of its su perior merit, has already attained a circulation four times greater than that of any other two dol lar Magazine. But the publisher, determined to increase his subscription lists still further, Offers additional inducements for 1859, so as to make it the interest of every lady in the United States to subscribe. Tlie Magazine will be enlarged and improved in every way. It will contain nearly 1000 pages; from 25 to 30 Steel Plates; and about. 800 Wood Engravings—and all this for only Two Dollars a Year. This is more than any Magazine ever gave—hence “ Peterson" is emphatically THE MAGAZINE FOR THE TIMES! The Original household receipts of “ Peterson” are quite famous. For 1859, the author of these receipts lias prepared an Original Cook Book, con taining receipts for every kind of dish, with direc tions for setting the table, &c., &c. Every one of these receipts lias been tested. A portion of this— the best and most economical Cook Book ever prepared—will be given monthly; and the whole finished within the year, illustrated with numerous Engravings. This alone will be worth the price of " Peterson" for 1859. A piece of New and Fash- ionable Music will be given in every Number.— Also, Hints for the Toilet, Etiquette, and other matters interesting to ladies. Try it one year. Terms, always in Advance.
