cry of disapprobation was raised, and Abodie
was accused of complicity with tho Versaillisls,
and threatened tho guillotine. At half-past
five the cables were again stretched, and the
column swayed, and then swept magnificently
down, bursting into fragments as it struck tbo
earth. Tho crowd shouted “ Vive la Commune'
- ike tazd3 played Marsullase, the gamins
hollered, and the asses brayed. The statue of
the great Emperor separated first from the col

Washington, D. C-» May 17, 7:40 p. m.)
Tho barometer has fallen somewhat on the
Pacific coast, wilh high westerly winds, it has
risen from the upper Lakes eastward to the At-
Caiqjjerland
temperature has risen during the day in the
South Atlantic States, and fallen on the Lakes
ana in the Eastern States. The threatening and
rainy'weather has moved eastward, and pre
vailed dnriDg the night from Ohio to New Jer
sey and northward, but is now almost entirely
cleared away. Partially cloudy and clear weath
er has prevailed north and west of Indiana.
Probabilities: It is probable that local rains
will pass over the Middle Gnif coast, and that a
storm of moderato dimensions will pass over
Georgia and Qonth Carolina. A more extended
rain is threatening the Ohio valley and Illinois.
Cloudy weather, with brisk northeasterly winds,
will probably be experienced from Lake Erie
northward. Fresh northwesterly winds are
probable for the Middle and Eastern States.

Jail Dellveby.—About noon yesterday, six
desperate villains, Laving tired of baits and
bars, successfully adopted means by which they
made good their escape from durance vile. The
six prisoners, all of them negroes, wore: sent
here from Monroe county for safe-keeping, and
were confined in the same cell together After
having given them dinner, Captain Nance, the
jailor, in company with a negro man employed
at the jail, proceeded to the call in which were
the prisoners, for the purpose of carrying some
soup to one of the number who was sick. The
servant, as wo3 the custom, entered the cell,
while Captain Nahoe remained at tho door, pis
tol in hand, awaiting his return. More time
having been occupied by the servant than usual,
the jailor approached nearer the cell door in or
der to ascertain the cause of the delay, when ho
was at once rushed on by Stephen Smith, the
most desperate and daring one of tho gang, who
wrenched the pistol from his grasp, and over
powering him, made good his escape in compa
ny with tho other prisoners. The alarm was at
once given, when the police force and a largo
posse of citizens turned out to assist in the cap
ture of the retreating scoundrels. Lnm Smith,
the invalid prisoner, waB captured by officer
Thomas Battle in the vicinity of tho gas-houso,
but the remaining five succeeded in reachingtho
swamp, and have thus far eluded capture. Four
of these prisoners were regarded as exceedingly
dangerous and desperate characters, and were,
as a consequence, shackled and chained to the
floor of the cell. In order to effect their escape:
it was necessary to break their shackles, and
this could not be accomplished without some
kind ot tools famished from outside sources.
Circumstances point unerringly to tho negro
employed at the jail, and it would be well for the
authorities to examine carefully into the matter
and, if possible, ferret out and punish the con
federate of these villains.

A Quaker Wedding.—It took place on Thurs
day morning at the regular weekly meeting.
My friend, who invited me to accompany him,
and myself entered the meeting-house at 10
o’clock, and found it nearly filled. Shortly
after, five young ladies, dressed in white with
sweeping trains, jaunty, gipsy hats, each with
an escort in full evening dress, entered and
took the reserved seats. Then came the parents
of the contracting parties. Lastly the bride and
and groom j the bride, a sweet looking girl, wore
a white silk dress, bonnet and veil.
After their entrance, the congregation “set
tled into a quiet,” which lasted about twenty
minutes. Then the pair arose, joined hands,
and the young man said: “In the presence of
the Lord and this assembly, I take thee to
be my wife, promising with Divine assistance,
to be a loving and faithful husband until it shall
please tho Lord by death to separate us.” The
young woman ia like meaner promised to bo a
“ loving and faithful wife,” etc.
Shortly after an elderly lady “appeared in
supplication.” Her prayer was very beautiful,
and to mo it seemed more appropriate than the
sermon which followed it from a young man, on
the uncertainty of life and approaching judg
ment. The sermon ended, a table with the mar
riage certificate npon it was' placed before tho
newly married, which they both signed—the la
dy then taking her husband’s name. This cer
tificate was then read by the clerk of the meet
ing, and those present requested to sign it. The
bridal party then passed out and the meeting
adjourned.
I forgot to say, that these same young people
had appeared at a meeting held a mouth beforo,
hnd declared those intentions of marriage. The
matter had been placed in the hands of two com
mittees “to ascertain if both parties were clear
of other engagements.” They reported favora
bly, and the marriage could go on. This is
called “passing meeting.” We sro not so partic
ular in the west as to “other engagements.” If
we were, think you divorces would bo fewer in
number?
Sixteen brave young women of Monroe,
Mtoh., recently put a coat of tar and feathers
on a respectable married lady, simply because
a man who worked the farm boarded in her
honse during the absence of her husband.
A fond mother in Kingston, N. Y., keeps an
old-fashioned rocking-chair sitting in a corner
as an ornament, because in it she rooked ten
babies, all of whom grew up to be men, and are
now living and married.
Fbee-love ideas bavo been advocated of late
in a stylo so disgusting to tho moral sense of
the community at largo that many State Legis
latures are taking steps to make the divorce
laws more stringent than ever.
The Grown Princess of Prussia will next
month publish her book on female labor.

T HE undereigned, having resumed the manufacture of the above Gin, propose to make it what it wan
before the war—The favorite of the South. Our wosk stands upon ite merits, end we think this a
sufficient guarantee. We have secured tho services of some of the best mechanical talent in the North
ern shops, in addition to eome of tho best workmen from tho shop of the late Samuel Griswold. Mr. Ciaa.
Gardner, who eervod eight years’ apprenticeship under E. Carver & Co., at East JDridgewalcr, Mass.,
and who was employed as Superintendent or tho Double Wells Shcp, frem the commencement of the
.manufacture of tho Mooro Cotton Gin, until its suspension, ft again at his post, and will give each Gin
Tiis personal inspection before it leaves tho chop. C
In calling tho attention of planters to our Cotton Gins, wo desire that they thon’d notice thej improve
ments that we offer, winch are substantially as follows:
A PORTABLE ROLL BOX,
For obtaining any inclination of tho Gin Rib or Grate, is used; the object of which ia to improve in tbo
quantity ginned, or lessen the quantity and improve the quality of lint. Also, to gin damp or wet cotton
to alter (ho picking or separating tho lint from the seed—either to take more lint off, or less lint from
the seed, as circumstances require. Wo use both fho common Roil Box and & Swinging Front. The
latter is arranged to lot out all tho seeds and hulls in a moment, and is very easily managed.
THE GIN BRUSH
Wo make, cannot be excelled by any hair brash used. The biistles are all drawn in by a cord, and the
timber is all selected from tho best lumber, well seasoned; and every Crush is made perfectly fire and
rat proof. - ■
CJYIL.IIVI>EK. -A1XD BRUSH S30ZSZEJS
Are both oscillating and plain. Can famish either, as may be ordered. Wo line them with the test
babbit metal.
G-IINT SAWS.
We make all the Saws that we nso from tho best English Cast Steel, and of odv size that mav bo no-
sired. We employ, to superintend and manufacture our Saws, one of tho test saw-matera in the South;
aud our machinery for the manufacture of Gin Saws cannot ba excelled.
COTTON SEED CRUSHING 3IILL.
We are tho only successful mannf*cturers of this important and useful invention—tho Cotton Gin,
with tho Cotton Seed Crushing Mill attached. It will hardly be necessary here to allude to the immeneo
saving and economical use of crashed cotton seed, as a manure. We received a gold medal as a premi
um, from tho Fair of the Cotton Planters’ Convention, held in Macon, Ga., 1860, for tho best Cotton
Seed Crushers attached to tho Gin Stand, to crash tho seed as fast as it escapes from the Belt We re
fer to some of tho many certificates that we have on tho eubject..
TRIAL OF THE GINS.
We keep constantly on hand seed cotton, and every Gin is tried before it leaves the shop—old or new
onos.
REPAIRING OF OLD GINS. #
Wo have a completo assortment of the very beet Cotton Gin Machinery ia the country, and nuke re
pairing cf Old Gina a specialty. Planters will do well to send in their old Gins, and Lave them made a*
good as new, at a much less cost than a new Gin can be bought for. Bend on yonr orders and old Gins
early.
We aro also authorized by Messrs. Findlay's Sons to receive orders fer Findlay & Craig’s Screw Obtton
Press, and Craig’s Patent Portable Horse Power, and Castings generally.
For particulars, send for Circnlar and Price List. v
