A H for POSTERS. j 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 Thomas Johnson has withdrawn from the Know Nothings in Baldwin county, and Messrs.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. t' Couch, Z Holloman, J. Reid, and M. E. Frown, from the Macon Council. South Carolina Gamh Law. — Georgia sports* j men who occasionally amuse themselves by excur sions with guns or fishing tackle into our sister i Smie. would do well to fumilarize themselves, be- | tore violating it, with the following law, enacted : at the last session of the South Carolina Legisla- ! tare: Ser. 1. That from and after the passing of this uci it shall not be lawful for any non-resident of this Slate to use a gun, set a trap, or decoy, or to employ any other device for killing or taking deer, turkies, ducks, or any other game, nor set a trap or net to draw or use the same or any other contri vance for hiking or killing fish within the territo rial limits of this State.

Expensive Luxuries. —It is a great comfort to ! she British people to possess a Royal family, and j 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, . King of the Belgians, $“5o,ooo; Her Royal High- j ness the Duchess of Kent, *lso,onn; Her Koval j Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, $30,000; liis Koval Highness Prince Albert, $150,000 : Her Roy- ! a!

The Archbishops and bishops of England arc belu> ed bv Bull next to the blood regal. But that they are awfully expensive, the following list of annual salaries, returned to Parliament, will show.: T - the Archbishop of Canterbury, $165,000; Arch bishon of York, * \ Bispom of Durham, #65, o ' - Bishop of London, fso.ouO; Bishop of Win chester. #7o,nno ; Bishop of Ely, $50,000 nine oth or» on an average, s2s,nnO • the rest on an average, *ls/100.

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!” [ The steamship Texas arrived at New Orleans on the 26th inst., with advices from Vera Cruz to the 22d, and city of Mexico to the Isth inst.

Too White to be Married. —A negro named Miles Julies, living at Rock Island, Illinois, lias, for a longtime been courting a white girl in that city, named Sarah Davis. His wooing was successful, ; so far as obtaining the consent of the lady to be 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 , him to perform the marriage ceremony without r violating the laws of the Suite. Miles is hunting up testimony to prove that the girl is three-qttar | ters black. A( cii>k.\t to Uriah Paulk, Esq. —The numer ! mis friends of this gentleman will learn, with re gret, that he met with a very serious and fatal ac j extent on Saturday morning last. As we learn, o- was cm his way towards Macon, from his resi nonce near Union Springs, Ala., travelling in the i regular passenger train, and when in the neigh borhood of Reynolds, on the South-Western Kail- 1 road, discovering a train approaching from the j ,-ast, and knowing that a collision was inevitable, l 1 J»««ped out <>t the hind part of the car. The col- ! ision took place, driving the car back over him,: by winch bot.i of bis legs and one of his thighs ‘ i were bml.y fractured, serious hurts received j about his chest, and a deep cut inflicted on his i 1 forehead.

From 1 several years’ experience in teaching, and a con- ' staut attention to the duties of their profession, 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.
