COCRTSHir AND MATRIMONY.
The difference between Courtship and Mat
rimony was never moie forcibly explained than
in t .o following :
“ Waat d.d you get married for if you did
rot like it ?”
“ Wav, I was deluded into it—fairly delu
de 1, 1 had to do of evenings, so I
vent a courting. Now courtin is fun enough,
1 nav’ut got n word, to say agin courtin. It’s
ebout as goo Ia way of killing an evening as
I know of. Wash your face, put on a clean
dickey, and go and talk as sweet as sugar or
molasses candy, for an hour or two to sav no
t ling of a few kisses behind the door, as your
sweet-heart goes to the step with you.”
* V/.ien I was a single man. the world wag.
go I along weil enough. It was just like an
o nnibus: 1 was a passenger, paid my levy,
and had’nt nothing more to do with it, but sit
down and not care a button, for any thing.
fcJ’podug the omnibus upsot —well I walks od,
and leaves the man to pick up the pieces. Bat
t ;cn I inuit take a wife and be hanged to me.
It’s all well for a while; but afterwards its
plaguy l.ke owning an upiet omnibus.”
‘•Nan?” queried Montezuma —“ what’s all
that about omnibuses ?”
“ Want did I get by it I” continued Gnma
l’el regardless of the interruption. “How
much fun I”—why, a jawing old woman and
three squallers. Mighty difference from cour
ting that is. What’s the fun of buying things
to eat, and things to wear for them and wasting
good spreeing money on such nonsense for
other people ? And then, as for doing what
you like there is no such tiling. You can*
clear out, when people’s owing so much mon
ey you can’t stay convenient. No. the nab
bers must have von. Yon can’t go oa a spree;
for when you come home, missus kicks up the
dust. You can’t teach her better manners —
for constables are as thick as blackberries. In
short you can do nothing. Instead of “Yes,
mv duck,” and “No mv dear,” —As you
please, honey, and “When you like lovely
like it wis in courting times, it’s darning and
mending, and no*hing ever darned or mended.
If it was’nt that I’m partikelarly sober, I’d be
r d.nel to drink—it’s excuse enough. It’s
heart-breaking, and it’s nil owing that I’ve
5 ich a pain in my gizzard of mornings. I’m
so nf.-arable I must stop an 1 sit on the steps.”
“ Wants the matter nmv ?”
‘•l’m getting agrawated. My wife’s a sa
x' -n’ critter—aswurl of sharpness—lie cuts
t ic throat of mv felicity, stabs mv happiness
stops up mv comforts, and snins up all iny

boys—she gives nil the w'ttles to the children,
to make them sory and jump about i ke a lamo
lighter—l can’t stand it—mv troubles are
overpowering when I come to add ’em up.”
“ Oh, nonsense I behave nice—do’nt make
n no, re in the street—be a man.”
* Hoy i can I be a man, when I belong to
somebody else? !Mv hours ai’nt my own—
I belong to four persons besides myself-—the
old woman, and them three children. I’m a
p.artnersh’p and so monv ha.s got

HEATH OP TALLEYRAND.
Prince Talleyrand breathed la's last on the
evening of the 17th May. lie had beeii out
in his carriage on the previous Sunday ; but a
slight sore produced an anthrax, or gangrene,
end he wis thus carried oil* in his 84th venr.
He had for some time written and addressed
to tie Pope a retraction of his conduct at t ie
famous ceremony of the Federation, where lie
forgot his episcopal ordination, and conde
.s -ended to bless that democratic, and some
v rut heathen ceremony. He receive* 1 abso
lution, extreme unction, and died in the peace
of the Catholic* church; although the arch
bishop of Paris, to whom the Prince had scut
n copy of hil letter to the Pope, kept aloof
from his bedside.
Iv ng Louis Philippe, however, visited the
death bed of tho veteran statesman, whose re
spect for etiquette and courtly ideas, was man
ifest even in his dying moments. lie insisted
on presenting to the King all who happened to
be with him, and hud not undergone that cere
mony, and he acknowledged the King’s v's : t
not as the act of warm and private friendship,
but as “a great honor done to his house.”
Madame A-'e'aide, sister of the King, also
visited the Prince. Messrs. Thiers and Mole
also attended his last moments.
Morning Chronicle.
In an article on tin's subject, the Courier
Francais says,—He quitted life with a calm
ness that could not have l>een exceeded bv the !
purest conscience. I:i death he preserved all
the sto cism (impassibilite) of his life. lie
went oik oi the world like a true courtier, bv
using fluttering words to his King, and like a
true diplomatist, by negociating with the Pope,
vv,th whom, as a consecrated bishop, a mar.
rie l priest, and excommunicated Catholic he
hud many accounts to settle.”
INDEPENDENCE.
Dialogue of a Lowell Girl with the Over
seer ot a Factory :
“Well, Mr. Buck, I am informed that you
wish to cut down my wages?”
“ \ es, such is the determination,”
“ Do }ou suppose I would go to work again
in that room, at lower prices than I have re
ceived 1 es ire ?”
h} it is no more than fair and reasona
ble co isi ering the hard times.”
“Well all 1 have to say, is, that before I’ll
do it, I will sec you in Tophet, pumping thun

It is needless to say that she was invited to
resume work at the old prices.
Lying. —There was a famous problem a
mong the Stoics, which ran to this purpoie:
*• W.icn a m in says 1 lie, does he lie, or does Ire
not? If lie lies, "he speaks the truth; if he
speaks the truth he lies.” Many were the
books written upon this wonderful problem.

NVSSLEY MANUAL LABOR SCHOOL. .
The Committee who-were apj»ointcd to pre
pare an address to the public, jn reference to
this institution beg leave to offer the following
statement of facts, which they hope will afford
convincing evidence to the public that this
seminar}’ of learning will soon le in successful
operation.
This institution is located in Houston coun
ty, Georgia, near Fort Valley, in a healthy sec
ton of country, the growth of which is pine,
interspersed with oak and hickory; the soil is
of the most fertile kind. Five hundred acres
of lan 1 have been purchased upon which the
trustees design to commenco operations. A
portion of thi> land has been run off into lots,
fourteen of which have been sold. Four lions
es for the institution are nearly completed, of
convenient size, situated upon an area of six
acres, and surrounded by a street one hundred
and twenty feet wide. Preparations are stiff
making t > put up the requisite number of build,
mgs, sufficient to accommodate a iarjc num.
her of pupils and to.carry the school into spee
dy and successful operation.
Tne establishment of this institution was con
ceived less than twelve months ago, and a per
manent endowment of twenty-five thousand
dollars, given by Mr. J mes A. Everett, and
fifteen thousand raised by subscription fiom
the citizens of the country—making Forty
Thousand Dollars.
Arrangements are now making to raise by
subscription fif’een tho isand dollars, in addi
t on to what has lieen already subscribed, and
which wdl, no doubt, be promptly responded
to.
This will cnab’e the trustees to found an in
stitution upon such a loan's as will give to the
poor an opportunity, at little e - pense, to ob
tain a liberal education. At a 1 ,te meeting of
the Board, a superintendant and teacher were
elected of whose qualifications it is not neces
sary at this time to speak. Toe school will go
Into operation on tire first Monday in January
next. The number of pupils to be received
will 1«? limited at present, to sixtv ; tbirtv-two
of whom will board at The Steward’s Hail, and
twenty-eight in private families.
T ie discipline of the school will be of such
a character as will tend to promote not only
science, but morality and religion. T e rate
of 1 oard is fixed at e’ght do'lars per month—
tui on at twenty-five dollars per annum. No
pupil will be received under twelve years of
age. Each pupil will be required to labor a
certain portion of each day, for which lie will
be paid.
At the clo c of the term or venr, whatever
may be due the j u ail for labor will be de lucted
from the charges made against him for board
and tuition.
The Committee, in conclusion, deem it al
most unnecessary to say anything in reference
to the advantages to Ixi derived from schools
established upon the principles of connecting
manual labor with mental culture. The age,
upon this subject, is not involved in darkness.
The experiment has been made with success,
not only in Europe and the northern part of
our own country, but in the South. In the
State of Georgia, too, manual labor schools do
flourish, and promise to be a blessing to the
community. The Committee confidently be
lieve that the friends of industry, science, mo
rality ami religion will give to the Wesley Man
ual Labor School that support which its loca
tion and promise of usefulness may deserve.

THE ANNEXATION OF TEXAS.
This question was brought up in the Texi
an Congress about the 10th uit mo—and on
tne motion to withdraw the proposition for at .
nexation to the United States, it was lo.t by
one vote. We should not have regretted it,
had the decision been otherwise; as we hold it
entirely improbable that such a circumstance
can ever take place. The que tioti would
then have been settled, and much time been
saved to the couutry, now occupied by Con
gress in listening to the interminable string of
petitions from the male and female women and
children, of the North and West on that sub
ject. Other ends equally important would un
doubtedly have been attained by such a deci
sion. It is a melancholy and alarming fact,
that since tiie feminine portion of tho e sec
tions of our country have become engrossed
in its political concerns, that their children are
becoming but indifferently versed in the clmtc
c!ii-m; their cheese is bad'y made, the art of
in iking dumplings, and apple-sauce, is almost
lost; and their heels are often seen peeping
through an undarned stocking, on Sunday
morning. That such a resolution should have
been wrought in the land of the Pilgrim Fa
triers was hardly to have been expected in an
age, xvhich has been conceded by almost eve
ry one, as that of enterprise, and reform. But
facts tell that melancholy tale—the cobltr has
deserted his last, and the women their domes
ticMuties, to talk of Texas, Slavery, and the
Cherokee?. These are a sad moth on the
husbands interests, and the children’s welfare.
A sad bore was the little Frenchman over
whom Aunt Charity watched out her existence,
and so are certain political concerns to the
crowd wlio arc following in the footsteps of
that departed worthy—minding every body’s
business but their own. Georgia Messenger.

t triLD ROT OF THE WOODS.
Tlic following account of a boy found wild
I in tiie State of Indiana, is from tiie Canton
(lii.) Herald :
We have seen in several papers an account
of a Iroy apparently 13 or 14 years old, who
was found in the woods in the vicinity of the
Chath.'linot Diaries, in the State of Indiana.
It is said the boy is now in the f.mily of a
Co'. Clark Clarkson, of Bush Hill, a place not
far from the spot where he was found. He
is handsomely formed, Ins fine limbs, very
elastic in his movements, stout with clear, full
and intelligent black eyes. Me has been sev
eral months in tiie Colonel’s family, during
which tine helms uttered r.o articulate sound,
expressed no wish by any sign, though he ev
idently pays considerable attention to tilings
around him. lie sometimes gives a
screech, wid th by its being always at a meas
ured elsvat'on, and after which he seems to
listen with care, affords ground for the conclu
sion that tiie poor fellow ha; been accustomed
to receive some sort of answer from a source
to us unknown. He chooses the naked earth
for his bed, and utterly rejects all covering
save a drier skin which he wraps round his
holy. His food he takes in a raw state—
principally beef, poultry, potatoes and nuts.
It is astonishing with what voraciousness he
consumes small birds. He will strip off its
feat ersrnl entrails, and devour it with a rel
ish amounting to an ccstacy. He has thus
far evinced a melanchollv temperament, clioo
sing to be much alone, and makes for the
woods whenever an opportunity is presented,
but when found attempts no escape, but pas
sively returns. He manifests no attachment
for any human being save for a servant girl of
the fun ly, By her request he has occasion
ally eat a little corn bread, and Sat down for a
moment on a chair. Wlicat broad he pe
remptorily refuses. He hits made compar
atively no advancement towards civilization.
ANECDOTE OF LORD BYRON.
“ I was,” says Sir W. Knighton,. “ Lord
Byron’s medical attendant for some time pre
viously to his marriage. One morning, oa
making him ray accustomed visit. 1 found the
table at which he was writing covered with
printer’s proof-sheets, scraps of manuscript
verse ?, fee. On my being announced, lie nei
ther raised his head nor the pencil from the pa
per lie was rapidly scribbling, but said. “ Be
so kmd a ? to take a book and be silentfor two
in antes.” A longer time bad scarcely elap
sed when he threw down the pencil with an
air of satisfaction exclaiming, ‘ I have done
it at last.” He apo’og zed for claiming a po
et’s indulgence, saving that the last four lines
of that stanza had given hhn more trouble than
tne whole poem besides, adding, “ The right
wo ds came into my head just as your carri
age drove up.” His lordship then rose, and
with a smile said abruptly, “ Knighton, what
do you think lam going t>du ? lam gohtg
to marry !” I replied, “I am son yto hear
it, my lord.” “ The devil you aic! Anti why
should I not ?” “Because Ido not think ton
are constituted to he happy in a married life.”
He looked grave, and af era pause, said, “ I
believe you are right, but the ladies think oth
erwise (alluding to his sister, Mrs. L.) How
ever, tiie die is cast; for I have presented my
self in due form to tiie lady’s papa. I had an
amicable reception. The only personal quer.
tion put to me was when I was mounting my
horse. Sir Ralph called after me, “ Pray, mv
lord, how do you pronounce your name—B r
ron or Byron ?*’ 1 replied, “B-Y, spells by
all the world over.”

A ni 1 those drops of parting sorrow—

Burst from the bosom's deep recess ;

And shall we part, oh ! ves we must,
For Death the silver chord will sever;

With heavenly spirit gone before ;

AWFUL CATASTROPHE.

Tuc stcumbo it North America Ls just in,
by the p issengers of which we learn tue par
t cukes of a most heart reading calamity—
THE DESTRUCTION OF THE NEW AND ELEGANT
stsam-soat WASHINGTON, by fire, off
Silver Creek, i *>oJt 3 o’clock this morning,
with tiie estimated loss of FIFTY LIVES!
The Washington passed the North Ameri.
can while the latter lay at Erie, in tiie early
part of the night, an I wits not again seen by
those oo board the North America until when
within about three miles of this city, a bright
glare of light was discovered by tiie helmsman,
in tue direction of Silver Creek, and tiie North
America was instantly put about for tire sceno
of npprehendedsdisastcr.
On nearing tiie spot, about 6 o’clock the
burning hull of the large and noble bo it was
found drifting over tiie waters, three or four
miles from snore with not a living human be
ing on bo trd. Tne lake was literally covered
with hats, bonnets, trunks, baggage, aud
blackened fragments of the wreck.
The intense anxiety of tne witnesses of this
fivK f il scene, for the late of the passengers on
tne unfortunate Washington, was partially re-
I eved by tiie discovery of several small boats
near t ie shore, in wnich the survivors of the
disaster had been rescued from destruction.
Tho alarm had been given at Silver Creek,
ns soon as the (1 lines were perceived from t.io
shore, and all t;.e boats that could be found
were sent to the rescue of the sufferers.
F iere were only three skiffs, beside the yawl
of the Washington, which could be thus us
ed.
The North America took on board about
43 of tho re saved, many of whom, including
all tiie ladies, remained o i shore. There
were six dead bodies picked up on tire spot—•
those of four children and two women. One
man died of injuries soon afer reaching the
score, and one child wts dead in its mother’s
arm s when she was taken out of the water.
Afer picking up all the floating baggage
which could Ire .seen, the bull—-which vras still

Creek, employed in this melancholly business,
G or 7 hours, and every thing was done by

services are entitled to all praise.
Tne ill-fated Washington was built at Ashta

previous to her destruction. The fire caught
