The happy lady is a young widow of twenty-seven, (years, not husbands.) lovely and rich, and her name is Princess Bar ashin. It will be remembered that the happy bridegroom is a mulatto, the father of the elder Dumas having been a negro. The Question of Search.—lt is believed at Washington, probably from intimations thrown out by the British Minister that the British Government will insist upon the “ right of vis itation,” as absolutely essential to the suppres sion of the slave trade. Never tel) a secret to a married man who I ores his wife, for he will tell her, she will tell her aunt Hennah, and aunt Hannah will im part it as a profound secret to every one of her female acquaintances. The Oat Chop.— So far as wo have learned the oat crop in Decatur has been destroyed by rust. The failure of this crop is certainly a calamity of no small importance to stock rais ers ami feeders in this section, and will mate rially affect the corn'market. — Eainbridg. .lr gua. The British steamer Styx, of which so much has been heard of late, is rate 1 a steam paddle wheel sloop on the royal navy list, and is 1400 tons burden, 280 horse power, and carries six heavy cannons. She draws about fourteen feet of water. A cowhiding affair recently took place in Nashville, and it is supposed by some that the lady who used the cowhide, recently spent a lews days in Atlanta teaching painting. A man sent to her Hotel an insulting anonymous letter, she immediately sought him out ami ac costed him, asking whether he had done so or not. He acknowledged that he had, whereup on she let in upon him in terrible style. The whole affair is a subject of comment in the Nashville papers. It is suited that Louis Napoleon, with wise forethought, has been preparing for possible future contingencies by making investments in England and the United States. Sue would Makhy.—We learn from the Philadelphia Press that two young persons in that city desired to marry, but the girl’s moth er wouldn'Fconseut, and she being of age, the gentleman sued out a writ of habeas corpus, and the mother was compelled to bring the (laughter into court. The judge asked the girl whether she wanted to marry Smith ? Said she, ’yes.’ and he married them. “ Whiskeretfs” is the name given to “ beau catchers” worn by girls this spring, for the lack of whiskers, mustachoes, or goatees. They are made by drawing down little tufts of hair from the temples and forming them into scollops.— Exchange. If any of the pretty young girls would like to have a fine mustache upon their upper lip, they shall be indulged just as soon ns ours has time to grow.— Prentice. The apothecaries of some of our neigh boring cities are advertising a new perfumery, called “Kiss-me-quick.” Only imagine a pret ty girl walking up to the counter, and briefly saying to the clerk —“Kiss-me-quick.” i-S?” If you observe a gentleman with his arm round the waist of a young lady, it is mor ally certain that they are not married. —[Ex- change. And it is morally certain that his arm is there with her full approbation and consent, and that it is perfectly delightful to her. Dogmatism is puppyism come to its full growth. NARROW ESCAPE FROM PREMATURE BURIAL A singular circumstance took place in Bland ford, Va., on Tuesday. The facts are given by an informant of the South Side Democrat, as follows: A negro woman, named Martha Sanders, has been ill some time past, and on Monday morn ■ng.her family and friends assembled around her knd took, as they thought, their final farewell. She appeared to expire about 10 o’clock the same day, and the ceremonies of preparing her for her grave were duly performed, and every preparation was made. At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon some minutes before she was to be carried to her last resting place, much to the astonishment of those present, she reared her bead, and finally sat erect in her coffin. A gen eral stampede took place among the darkies who came to attend the obsequies and so stupitied with fright were those that remained that some time elapsed before assistance was rendered her A physician was sent for, and stimulants ad ministered, which considerably revived her.and accounts she was improving, but it is not thought she can survive longer than a few days at farthest. Miscellany. lijb Roney Moon.—Why is the first month after mhrriage called the “honey moon?” Doubtless on account of the sweet lunacy which controls the heads of the parties during that brief and delightful period. What a pity that they should ever get quite rational again ! that sentiment should give place to sense, love yield to logic and fiction to fact, till the “happy pair” are reduced from the Eden of romance to the Sahara of reality—from Heav en to earth—and perhaps a peg lower! Strange as it may seem, there have been couples who have quarreled in the first month of matrimo ny, and have got back to their astonished pa rents before the good mother had fairly done weeping (and rejoicing too) at her daughter's departure. Their “honey moon” soured at the full of her horn, mid became a moon of vinegar instead. A bad omen that! There was mqch sense and propriety in the text. How to Examine Wells.—The following simple mode of examining a well to ascertain whether it contains any offensive substance, has been recommended as efficient: “Place a common mirror over the well in such aposition as to catch and thifiw the rays of the sun to the bottom of the well, which will be immedi ately illuminated in such a manner that the smallest pebbles, &c., at the bottom, can be distinctly discerned as if in the baud. The sun is in the best situation to be reflected in the morning or afternoon of the day.” Free Negroes.—Ninety-nine in a hundred make a precarious living by contentedly per forming the most menial offices, or live in idle ness or wretchedness. We can hardly fail to attribute this to characteristics of their own. We see the blacks daily driven from avocations once deemed almost exclusively their own.— It is long since they have flourished in any of the trades, if they ever pursued them with success. Within a few years they have ceased to be hackney coachmen and draymen, and they are almost displaced as stevedores. They are rapidly losing their places as barbers and servants. Ten families employ white servants where one did twenty years ago. Whatever explanation may be given of these facts, the facts themselves cannot be denied; and what is to be done with our colored population, un less they can be induced to return as colonists to the native land of their race, or seek some other tropical region, baffles the wisest of us to say.— Philadelphia North American. The Pat of Army Officers.—The New York Herald gives the following sums as the amount received per year by the several offi cers named: Gen. Scott, $18,292; Gen. Wool, $9,854; Gen. Persifer F. Smith, $8,189; Adjt. Gen. Cooper, §5,093; Maj. McDowell, §4,020; Col. Totten. §4,1148; Gen. Harney, §5,031 ; Col. May. §3,519; and says the general average re ceipts are. Colonels. §4.800; Lieut. Colonels, §4,000; Majors. §3,000; Captains, §3,500: Lieutenants, §2.000. Seasonable Advice. —A weather prophet, writing to an agricultural paper, says: “When you wish to know what the weather is to be, go ont and select the smallest cloud you see; keep your eye upon it, and if it decreases and disappears, it shows a state of the air which will be sure to be followed by line weatljgr; but, if it increa-es in size, take your great coat with yon. if yon are going from home, for fall ing weather will be not farofl'. The reason is this: when the air is becoming charged with electricity, you will see every cloud attracting all lesser ones towards it, until it gathers into a shower; and, on the contrary, when the flu id is passing off or diffusing itself, then a large cloud will be seen breaking to pieces and dis solving. Male and Female.—The sun is called mas culine from its supporting and sustaining the moon, and finding her the wherewithal to shine always as she does of a night and from his being obliged to keep such a family of stars. The moon is feminine because she is constant ly changing. The Church is feminine because she is married to the State: and time is mas culine because he is trifled with by the ladies. —Punch. X Speech from Billy Bowlegs.-—Bowlegs has been making another speech at New Or leans—Here is the document: “I stand up here big chief, brave warrior. I kill heap your people before, I can do him again easy; give Billy seven good men to fol low on the war track, and he lick all the Uni ted States and scalp big father at Washington ! Whoop!” To Destroy Flies.—Toone pint of milk add a quarter of a pound of raw sugar and two ounces of ground pepper. Simmer them to gether for eight or ten minutes, and place it about in shallow’ dishes. The flies attack it greedily, and in a few moments are suffocated. By this method, kitchens, etc., may be kept clear of flies all the summer without the dan ger attending poison. Small Bonnets and Neuralgia.—The new Spring bonnets, says n lounger on Broadway, continue to be worn of the oyster-shell pattern, small and rounded at the cheeks. Eminent medical men attribute the great increase among women of neuralgia, tic-doloreux, loss of sight, and great suffering in the ear to this fashion of excessively small bonnets, which dress the neck instead of tjie head.— -V. Paper. Those who have any kind of facilities for forming an idea of the wealth of Wm. B. Astor, estimate that it amounts to $40,000,000 or §50,000,000. It is mostly in real estate. He lives plainly, but still is not niggardly.— He has five children, three sons and two daugh ters. The two daughters ma*ried rich, as also did the eldest son. J-gs” We see it stated that the mayor of N. York has given orders to stop all letters going through the Post Office of that city, to the ad dress of Dr. James, the man whose “sands of life are nearly run out”—a man, we may say, whose sands of life are likely to be drawn out by means of a halter. He Declines it. —The following episode in debate at the Methodist General Conference, on the 25th, on a motion to raise the salary of Bishop Payne—who was in the chair at the time—is quite a laconic and refreshing exhibi tion of unselfish devotion to duty. G. W. D. Harris—l move to raise Bishop Payne’s salary to §I.BOO. The Chair—l decline it. G. W. D. Harris—l beg the Bishop to be still. The Chair—l have declined salaries before. Let me alone, sir. G.

[from the savannah news.] THE PRESIDENT S UTAH PROCLAMATION President Buchanan lias forwarded a procla mation to Utah, in w hich he sets forth the un justifiable rebellion of the citizens of that ter ritory against the government of the United States, declaring it treason, which, if persisted in, will bring them to condign punishment, ruin and shame. The land they live on he declares to be the property of the United States—paid fer out of their treasury. The proprietary title is in the general government and not in the Mormons. Utah is bounded on every side by States and Territories, whose people are true to the Union. It is absurd to believe that they will or can permit to be erected in their very midst a gov ernment, not only independent of the authori ty which they all acknowledge, but hostile to them and their interests. The President concludes: This rebellion is not merely a violation of your legal duty; it is without just cause, with out reason, without excuse. Yon never made ‘ a complaint that was not listened to with pa- I tiencc. You never exhibited a real grievance | that was not redressed as promptly as it could I be. The laws and regulations enacted for your ' government by Congress, have been equal and I just, and their enforcement was manifestly necessary for your welfare and happiness.— You have never asked their repeal. They are ' similar in every material respect to the laws : which have been passed for the other Territo- I ries of the Union, and which everywhere else (with one partial exception) have been cheer fully obeyed. No people ever lived who were freer from unnecessary legal restraints than ! you. Human wisdom never devised a politi- i cal system which bestowed more blessings or i imposed lighter burdens than the government of the United States in its operations upon the | Territories. But, being anxious to save the effusion of I blood, and to avoid the indiscriminate punish- I ment of a whole people for crimes of which it ■ is not probable that all are equally guilty, I of- j fer now a full and free pardon to all who will j submit themselves to the authority of the Fed eral Government. If you refuse to accept it, let the consequences fall upon your own heads. But I conjure you to pause deliberately and re flect well before you reject this tender of peace and good will. Now, therefore, I, James Buchanan, Presi dent of the United States, have thought proper to issue this my proclamation, enjoining upon I all public officers in the Territory of Utah, to be diligent and faithful to the full extent of i their power, in the execution of the laws; | commanding all citizens of the United States I in said Territory to aid and assist the officers ' in the performance of their duties; ottering to , the inhabitants of Utah, who shall submit to ’ the laws, a free pardon for the seditions and | treasons heretofore by them committed; warn- j ing those who shall persist, after nutjoe of this ■ proclamation, in the present rebellion against the United States, that th-y must expect no further lenity, but to look to be rigorously dealt with according to their deserts; and de claring that the Military force now in Utah, and hereafter to be sent there, will not be with drawn until the inhabitants of that territory shall manifest a proper sense of the duty | w hich they owe to this government.

He took but a single glass of wine, and that in compli ance with the reqnest of a young lady with whom he conversed. 1 saw him next, when he supposed he wws unseen, taking a glass to satisfy the slight de sire formed by his social indulgence. lie thought there was no danger. I saw him again with those of his own age meeting at night, to spend a short time in con vivial pleasure. He said it was only innocent a- : tnusement. 1 saw him next, late in the evening, in the street, unable to reach home. I assisted him i thither. He looked ashamed when we next j met. I saw him next reeling in the street. A confused stare was on his countenance, and I words of blasphemy were on his tongue. Shame was gone! I saw him yet once more. He was pale, I cold, motionless, and was carried by his' friends to his last resting place. In the small procession that followed every head was cast down, aud seemed to shake with uncommon anguish. His father's gray hairs were going to the I grave in sorrow. His mother wept to think hat she had ever given birth to such a child. THE MONTH OF BIRTH. January.—The man born in this month will be of a very cold temperament—selfish, and but little given to social enjoyment. The wo-. man will be of [a jealous disposition—will mar ' ry twice, and love enuff better than her hus bands. February.—The man will be greatly addict ed to pleasure and dissipation, and will conse quently be short lived. The woman will be a wild cat in petticoats. March —The man will be very passionate— of a blood-thirsty disposition, and will likely die in a duel. The woman will be of a very affect ionate disposition ; she will know “what's what” and desire further information on the subject. April.—The man will be of a fickle charac ter—of no stability, and although honest in intentions, no reliance can lie placed upon him. The woman.will be as variable as the winds; she will carry a variety of colors, and run up any flag that suits the best. May.—The man born in May wdl be a consti tutional loafer—a first-rate fellow, but good for nothing except drinking gin and smoking ci gars. The woman he marries w ill be badly “ taken in ;” she will deserve a better fate, as she may be justly numbered among those la dies who are like “bits of heaven chipped off from near the throne of God.” June.—The man born in this month will be i of small stature, and passionately fond of chil dren. The lady will be a giddy personage, fond of coffee: she will marry young. July.—The man will be fat and suffer death for the w icked woman be loves. The female of this mor,th w ill bo possibly handsome, with a sharp nose bnt fine bust; she will boos a ' rather sullen temper. August.—The man will be courageous and ambitious; he will have two wives. The la- ' dy will be amiable and twice married, but her . second husband wil cause lier to regret her first. September—He who is liosp in this month will be strong, wise and prudent, but will be j too easy with his wife, who will give great un- , easiness. The lady will be round faced and fair haired, witty, discreet, amiable and loved i by her friends. October.—The man of this month will have a handsome face and florid complexion; he I will be wicked in his youth and always incon- ; sistent. He will promise one thing and do another, and always remain poor. The lady will be pretty, a little talkative; she will have two husbands, who will die of grief as she will best know why. November.—The man born in this month | will have a fine face, and be a gay deceiver.— j The lady will be large, liberal and full of nov- I elty. December.—The man born in this month will be a good sort of a person, though pas sionate. He will devote himself to the army and be beloved by his wife. The lady will be amiable and handsome, with a good voice and well proportioned body; she will be twice married, remaining poor, but continue hon est. NEW SPRING CLOTHING! E.
