Telegraph Dispatch.
We received a long telegraph dispatch last night, |
, t w orth the paper it was written on.
During Tuesday night, Ist inst., Mr. Joshua
Hboom fell from the upper deck of the steamer
Fashion, and was found dead on the lower deck
~n Wednesday morning. The Coroner’s verdict
aas rendered accordingly. He was, we believe, a
native of Barnwell District, S. C., but for many
iears resided in this city, and was a painter by I
trade:. He had his frailties, and they caused his
(ii-ath. la:t the remembrance of them be buried
with his remains.
It lacked Patriotism.
The thorough failure of the Know Nothing par
! tv, says the Richmond Enquirer, to establish what
< ,uld in anv sense he called a national party, and
impossibility of the Black Republican party ear
ning their infamous sectional schemes, give a
[ c | ( ,ar indication that the people will, in the next
■ lection, turn to the safe guidance of the Demo
atic party. The patriotic and devoted union of
f ,e Democracy of Congress must exert a powerful
” moral influence on the mind, and ensure success.
A prominent journal, formerly Whig, and now the
leading Know Nothing organ in New Hampshire—
the Concord Statesman —makes the confession, sor
rowfully, and with reluctance quite affecting, when
we remember that it is abandoning the glorious
hope of “ Americans ruling America.” It says:
As the subject is now presented throughout the
country, no very strong hopes can be reasonably
entertained of defeating the candidate of the next
Democratic National Convention —even if General
Fierce be the nominee. This is an assertion, the
utterance of which is by no means pleasant; but
every intelligent politician, looking carefully over t
the country, and noting the various movements
afoot which have reference to 1856, can now reach
no other conclusion.
The Savannah Journal, of Ist inst., says: “ We
krn that the Augusta Bridge has been carried
attar.” We are pleased to tell our cotemporary
that his informant was mistaken.
Mr. Thomas Johnson has withdrawn from the
Know Nothings in Baldwin county, and Messrs. J.

Expensive Luxuries. —It is a great comfort to !

ihe British take exceeding satisfaction in maintain
ing in voluptuous laziness all the members thereof. |
But we should think that Bull would get tired of
the expense. Not to speak of the millions which
arc paid to the Queen, the following annuities do J
sound to Yankee ears very burtheusome. There j
were paid in the last fiscal year: To Her Royal i
Highness the Duchess of Goucester, sso,ooo ; the 1
Trustees of His ltoval Highness ls?opold George, .

In the House, on Thursday, quite an exciting dis
cussion sprung up, in consequence of a bribe offer
ed to Mr. Millward, a supporter of Fuller, by
John J. Pearce, a Banks man.
Mr. Millward, said:—Mr. Clerk, as an American,
; a,l “ preserve the honor and dignity of an Ameri
! can f 'ingress, J wish to make an exposure of an at
; tempted disgraceful arrangement for the purpose
;of securing a Speaker of this House. A few m’o
i * nents ago, a gentleman called on mo and offered if
l would vote for Mr, Banks as a candidate for the
Speaker s chair, that I would be made the chairman
j ot the Committee on Engraving and Lithographing
| a,l( * ‘ ,a ke this method to rebuke the insult, as it
1 certainly was upon mv honor and integrity IGreat
f.Tou’ 1 ""' and loud cries of “Give the name!”
I Mho was the man?”] iiis name is John J.
I * earce, of Pennsylvania, and I wish the gentleman
! to distinctly understand that the district which I
l* a v*the honor to represent, cannot be bought or
■ •j**”*' uke sheep in the shambles. I will ask my col
! league some questions. Did vou not come to mv
| seat u moment ago and take me back of the screen »
I Did you not ask me whether I had any inclina-
I tion to change mvvote? Did vou not ask me to
I vote for Mr. Banks V I asked you the reason why
j I should change my vote I You stated, “Because
j you will make a good thing of it.” [Laughter.]
; ‘‘in what way, sir?” “Why, you will be made the
Chairman of jhe Lithographing and Engraving
Committee.” Said I, “There is uo such commit
tee.’ Immediately 1 came to mv seat, and bor
rowed the Manual from Mr. Wright, [laughter,j
and, upon reference to it, I found no such commit
tee reported; whereupon 1 asked the question of
Mr. Humphrey Marshall, who was passing by at the
time, who informed me in the affirmative; this
being the case, I was convinced of the sincerity of
the proposition. I then went out and heard what
! Mr. Pearce had to sav further. I said, “How do
you know I can he made chairman of that commit
tee? He replied, that he had had a conversation
with Mr. Banks, and that he had assured him that
am promise he made to me would be carried out.
Air. Pearce—The gentleman did not understand
me—he misunderstood me.
Mr. Millward—No, 1 have not. There is no mis
understanding. The language was too plain.
Will vou answer my question, Mr. Pearce? |Cries
of “Order!” “Answer!” and great excitement in
all parts of (he Hull.] I ask Mr. Pearce whether
he had or had not the conversation with Mr. Banks
that he told me had, relative to this matter?
Mr. Pearce—l would like you to state what the
conversation was. We disagree as to what it was.
Mr. Millward—Vou told me that Mr. Banks had
assured you that if 1 would vote for him he would
give me the position you promised me.
Mr. Pearce—No, sir. 1 did not.
Mr. Millward—Well, l sav vou did, sir. [Shouts
of “ Order!”]
Quite a desultory debate ensued, in which tnanv
Northern gentlemen were involved in greater or
less degrees of bribery,—Mr. Banks, and Mr. Ful
ler, both declared that they had neither made or
authorized any pledges, although the parties sup
porting these gentlemen were the only ones impli
cated. There was also spicey discoursing about
foul play in “pairing off.” We regret that we have
not room to publish the entire discussion.
Fashionable Life in New York.
A Fifth Avenue Bridal. —The New York corres
pondent of the Boston JSee furnishes a long and
brilliant description of a fashionable wedding on
“ Fifth Avenue,” which took place last week. We
make the following extract:
“ The ceremony took place at 12% o’clock, and
the reception was from Ito 4 o’clock, p. m. Let
us attempt a description. The residence is one. of
the most elegant iu Fifth Avenue an avenue, I
am bound to say, that contains more wealth, more
pretension, more folly, more heartless show and
lormalitv, than any other in New Y'ork, or even in
the United States. At 12 o'clock about sixty in
timate friends ot the parties had assembled in the
drawing rooms. A door connecting an ante-room
| with the principal drawing * room was then
[ opened, and the bridal train made the entree in the
! following order: Two lovely little nephews of the
! bride, each about three years old, dressedj in ex
quisite taste, led the column. They seenu-d a beau
tiful representation of Cupid’s messenger. Imme
diately following were the bride and her brother,
the nearest male relative, then the groom and the
bride's mother, immediate relatives of the bride,
three bridesmaids and grooms men. Having
reached the further end of the draw ing-room, the
procession opened to right and left, and the bride
and groom took their places in the centre.”
The writer continues:
“The rooms were brilliantly lighted with gas,
the chandeliers being trimmed with wreaths of
evergreen and cumaiias. Upon the front steps
leading to the hall, Brown, the sexton of Grace
church, without whom nobody can be fashionably
entertained, married, or buried, in his sweet, sil
very voice, the arrival of the guests. And such a
.jam ! As far as the eye could extend, in either di
rection, tiie avenue was lined with magnificent car
riages conveying to the scene of joyous festivity
the elite of Sew York society.
“Among the distinguished guests f observed
I Commodore Perry and lady ; ex-Presidenl John
1 Tvler and lady. Airs. Gardner and Mrs. Beckman;
■ Alts. Colonel Thorne; Mr. and Mrs. Pvne; Hon.
| Mr. Slidell, l uiied States Senator from Louisiana,
; and lady, who is a cousin of the bride; Connno
| dore Hudson and family; Mrs. General Winfield
J Scott; Mrs. Charles O’Cnonor; Rev. Peter Sparks
i and lady, of New Jersey, parents of the groom;
; Mrs. and Miss Van Horn; Miss Russell; the Java;
! (l am speaking now after the manner of New Yo’rk
j ers, and take it for granted that everybody knows
whom I mean;) the Livingstons; the Stuvvesants;
the Dr Po sters; the Stevenses; in shori, all the
i ‘recognised fashionables’ of New York. Among
i the younger portion of the guests there were very
many pretty girls, and the display of elegant toi-
J letter was truly superb, far exceeding any similar
display this season.
“ The bride wore the most magnificent dress that
1 have ever beheld. It consisted of a white satin,
1 flounced with rows of very rare and expensive lace
j—a fabric more beautiful and costly than even
[ point lace; this was looped with orange blossoms
and jessamin. The veil was of the same descrip
tion of lace, very long and full. The dress, al
though so rich mid beautiful, was exquisitely neat
and in good taste. She wore no ornaments but a
plain set of diamond ear-drops and orange blos
soms. Her bouquet was composed of bridal flow
ers resting in a socket of massive gold. The hand
kerchief carried by the bride was the one which
received the premium at the Crystal Palace Fair,
and cost $250. It was a splendid article. Those
: whose opinions are quoted here, sav it was the
finest bridal dress ever seen in New Y ork, and cost
j nearly #5,000!”

i come his wife. To obtain a license from the clerk
, i of the court Miles swore that his intended was
l ' three-quarters black ; but upon application to the
Squire, lie thought Sarah was too white to allow

IJIHE undersigned having permanently located

they flatter themselves that the system of instruc
tion which they are now prepared’ to give Students (
pursuing a regular classical course, cannot be sur
passed by any similar Institution in the State. To
parents, therefore, designing to give their sons a
Collegiate education, their services are especially
tendered, since a thorough acquaintance with the
preparatory studies is indispensable to the Stu
dent’s progress throughout his whole course. Their
Academy Pupils will be prepared to enter the high
er classes of College, or if preferred, thoroughly
instructed in a more practical and business course.
The accessibility, health and quietness of their
location—its freedom from scenes and causes of
dissipation—induce them to hope for 11 continuance
ni' that liberal patronage, which for many years
they have not failed to secure.
A strict regard will be paid to moral training, 1
and the general deportment of each pupil carefully'
observed.

are separate—also, their Boarding Houses, while
the government, discipline, course of studies, Ac., 1

Arnha liniment, for herns,
Ac.— A supply of this very desirable article,
(which should be kept i every family ready for
use, may be obtained at the City Drug Store, where
it is for sale at only 50 cents per bottle. Having
been burnt severely myself with Burning Fluid, 1
tried every remedy proposed by mv friends, but
found, front experience, they were no go. On using
the Arnica Liniment, as per directions, it afforded
immediate relief. 1 therefore can speak from ex
perience. This invaluable oleaginous Linament
acts like magic, in removing the most acute pain,
by Burns, and seldom requires more than two or
three applications to relieve and cure those of a
severe character, either trom Burning Fluid, Cam
phine, Powder or Eire. This article is prepared
only by myselt, and having tried its efficiency, be
lieve it is the best remedy that can be used, when
ever the ease requires. For sale by
