French Courtship and Marriage. Did you ever see si French wedding ? Here J you are on the St. Sulpice. Houses built for the j great and rich, now deteriorated, degraded into j sordid lodging houses, are on all other sides ; out in the centre is the heautitul edifice of ist. Sulpice, with its two open towers. It is gloomy enough within—silent and solemn. But now all is bright. If the light of the day comes but dimlv tbrouuh the windows, hundreds of wax ■ candles illumine the aisles. On the stone floor a rich carpet has been laid, rows of velvet and gold surround the altar, and the altar itself the maases of white camellas, roses, jessamines, and white lilacs almost exclude the sight of the sacred images. The aisles are filled with new straw chairs ; the sacristans are in their best ; the beggars in their worst —for that is their wed ding garment. All stand in waiting round the door. On the steps is the Suisse , looking to the uninitiated uncommonly like the drum major of a regiment, all good lace, with cocked hat and feathers, and a sword by his side—in hand a long pole with a silver knob. His legs are models and he knows it. Now the carriages arrive. The Suisse stamps his stick upon the stones, and down gets the bride, led by her moth ers—fathers are rather in the hack ground on these occasions. The organs peal, and the whole procession, headed by the Suisse, march” es up to the altar. Then theaislos fill with eve ry sort of magnificence of dress—one, two, three hundred, or even a thousand people. Eve ry body whose name was ever known to either bride or bridegroom came of course to the wed ding or at least to church. While the question, “Wilt thou take this man?” is addressed to the bride, she takes forever her leave of maternal control, by turning with a profound courtesy to her mother to ask her per mission to answer. Mamma responds by an other inclination, and then her daughter says the “yes’’ which gives her her freedom ever more. The yougest sister or cousin of either bride or bridegroom thenj handed by the youngest gen tleman of the party, preceded by our friend of the fine legs and his sounding silver polo goes through the crowd with downcast eyes, and a fine velvet bag in her hand, soliciting contribu tions. “Poll les pauvres, a’il vous plait.” They then adjourn to the vestry ; and then, for the first time the bridegroom calls his wife by her Christain name—though the mid bride does not drop tee “Monsieur” till some days after she has become a wife. Then there is a feasting at home, dressing, dancing, and a little orying ; then the bride installed in her home by her moth er, leaves forever the parental roof. Now, in all probability the two principal ac tor haee never spoken twenty sentences to each other since they were first introduced. This is the way they cour t in France. One lady says to another, “My daughter is eighteen. She has much.’’ Every girl has a dowry if it be hut 500 francs. “You have known her from a child. You see so many men—cannot you think of one to suit her.” Os course the lady can ; for men are as ea > ger to marry in France as girls are to get hus- j bands ; it is an increase of fortune and a patent of respectability in all stations, in all professions. I The young man rs spoken to, and of course the young lady is named to him. A party is given and they meet ; or sometimes the girl is taken to the opera, and the lover examines her through j his glass. If satisfied with the survey, he is al- j lowed to pay her a visit. Then the girl, suppo sed to be in entire ignorance of the proceedings up to this point, is asked how she would like so j and so fora husband. Now, it is but just to say, if the girl does not j approve, the negotiations go no further ; but as she has never spoken to this suitor, and knows she will not speak to any future suitor, if the man is tolerably good looking and his tailor has done his duty, why she being assured by her j parents that the money is all right,general!}’ says yes. Then the mama of the bridegroom comes one evening when the house has been sot in or- j der and everybody dressed in his best, and after the first salutations, she rises and in a solemn I voice asks the hand of Madlle, Estelle , for Monsieur Achilla . Then the mamma on the opposite of the house rises and accepts the offer ; Madlle weeps and throws herself into her future mamma’s arms; whilst the sou in law em braces the mother of the intended. The papas shake hands, the betrothed lovers, released from parental arms, mutually bow to each other, and the servants bring in tea. Then the lawyers set to work to draw up con tracts ; the mama orders new dresses, &c., for her daughter, and puts new caps and dresses on herself. The bridegroom comes every evening with a grand bouquet, which he offers to Mad emoiselle, flirts an hour or two with the moth er, bows to the daughter and goes off*. The bride elect has only to embroider quietly by her mother’s side, smile, blush, and simper. Then the negotiating lady comes in grand state, preceded by an enormous trunk. Mam ma and the bride receive her—never of course, i heeding the trunk. Then the lady makes a speech opens the trunk, and presents the bride with the corbeilie namely, the wedding dress, veil, and wreath, two or three Cashmere shawls, ditto vel-1 vet dresses, a set of furs, a set of lace flounces, a set of diamonds, a watch, a fan, a prayer book and a purse of gold. These come from the bridegroom. In return the lady gets a bracelet from the bride, and many thanks for the presents and the husband. The mother scolds the inten- , ! ded for the reckless magnificence displayed, j when he comes at night. The bride says, “Ah monsieur! blushes and throws herself into her mother’s arms. Then the mamma gives her pre sents to the bridegroom—six cambric shirts and j six white cravats, the whole trimmed with Va lenciennes, chosen with an eye to the future pocket handkerchiefs of the bride; for, after the wedding day, what man will be bedecked j with lace ? At last comes the signing of the contract. The j bride takes onestep into the world shereceives her I visiters, and speaks—nay, converses with all ex cept the intended ; that would be improper. She gives a token of affection to her unmarried rel atives, bought from the purse in the corbeilie The wonders of the corbeilie are displayed in one room, whilst the trousseau of the bride (given by the mother) is exhibited in the other. Em broidery, linen oambrie, laces, <kc., are here, lavished on the pergonal underclothing of the bride, made up in dozens and dozens of each ar ticle ; piles on piles of table cloths, sheets, towels &c., all marked and tied withjpink and blue ribband. This is the way they manage marriages in France. QLxmts mtir Stxtimd. COLUMBUS, GEORGIA. FRIDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 4. 1853. The Whig Press vs Second Congressional Dis trict—Whig estimates of the results of the late election—charges of bribery &c. “Contrary to our expectations II.V. Johnson is Gover nor elect of the State of Georrgia, by two or three hun dred votes. We did onr utmost to prevent it, but the people have decided, and we must submit. At all events the reunited have not much of which to boast, and the race was a noble one, and will not be forgotten soon. We look upon the late election as an utter rebuke to the ad ministration of Franklin Pierce. Going into power as he did, with twenty thousand majority, the Union party have reduced it to two hundred , and that majority they gained by bribery in the second Congressional District one hundred thousand dollars , having been spent in that district to secure the election of Colquitt. These are facts that have not yet been denied.” We clip the above choice specimen of Whig fab rication from the Washington Gazette , an insignificant Whig Conservative sheet, the rural organ of Mr. Bob Toombs. We should not notice the bare faced falsity of the article, were it not that it but re-echoes the senseless and malignant assertions that have been made by other sheets of the same ilk, but claiming a more respec table position. The assertions that Pierce’s Administration has net been sustained and strengthened by the late election, and that bribery and fraud had been the means of se curing Democratic ascendency in the Second District, have been proved untruo in the one, and denied in the other, so conclusively that none but those who in the late contest waged the most ungenerous, dishonorable warfare, would fail to acknowledge. There are those whose assertions hare been so vile ; whose habits have been so demoralizing, and whose character has been so corrupt,that neither truth, nor a ease of duty can have any effect upon a stolidity which has become ingrained and which gives a coloring to their every thought and act. Incapable of a noble impulse them selves, they deny its existance in others. Accustomed to resort to fraud aud deception, they become enraged when an honorable antagonism defeats their diabolical designs. Trained to delnagoguism, and schooled in slander, they dare to strike their envenomed fangs when imbecility has overtaken them, and made them but things of scorn. Never in the history of political warfare in this State has there been a contest, char acterized by a more malignant, demon like, onslaught than the recent one on the part of the Whig press and Whig orators. Judge Johnson has been a very Cataiine and the Democratic party conspirators all. With the cries of disunion, filibustering, public robbery , red republicanism, treason, affiliation with freesoilers they have made the State to ring from mountain to sea board. With the senseless and despicable combination of odds and ends from all shades and shadows of every politi cal stripe they hatched up a pie-bold, ring streaked, striped and speckled advertising hand bill, of a “platform” such as was never before concocted to gull an intelligent and patriotic people. Defeated in a warfare thus waged on their part well may they writhe and With livid rage their shameless faces blacken. As soon as the result was ascertained, the Second Dis trict became the mark for their poisoned shafts. At first the “inactivity” of the Whigs of the South western counties was bewailed in lugubrious accents — but the tone soon changed to corruption and foul piny against the Democrats. Bribery and fraud have become words as common in the Whig vocabulary os treason end disunion had been during the canvass. Whig reckoners estimated at first twenty-five thousand dollars as the bribe fund 5 a little later and it reaches fifty thousand, and now il is set down at a cool hundred thousand. Continue your investigations gentlemen, and perhaps you may eventually discover a secret mine where biennially the mint drops are shoveled forth without stint. We think a more plausible reason ean bo assigned however, for their vindictive imputations. Having by an act of the last legislative session carved out the Sec ond District to secure their own ends, they have been thwarted and defeated in one of their intended strong holds, and under the lead of their chosen Chief. To militate as much as possible against the victory achieved in this district, which gave the State to the Democrats, scriblers have been busy at work with their cock and bull stories, and a system of detrac tion indulged in which will eventually recoil upon the authors with more than seven fold power. And the result has been an “utter rebuke to the admin istration of Franklin Pierce.” Figures and facts it is said, never lie, but they can be made to lie—we will let them speak for themselves. In 1851, Pierce received 34,792 votes ; in ’53, Johnson reoeived 44,343. With such a gain so palpably set forth, that any one “though a fool could not err,” Whig editors have the hardihood to controvert. We will now let such knights of the quill as the editor of the Washington Gazette , sink to their natural level. It is seldom we reach down so far to drag up such fish from their filthy beds, but having held them up to the sunlight| a sufficient time to disp’ty their putrescent qualities, we shall now let them drop to flounder with their kind in congenial mud. Accommodations at Milledgeville. —The Federal Union says: In respect to accommodations, Milledgeville, we un hesitatingly say, is better prepared than ever to accom modate visitors and the members of the Legislature.— Besides our spacious Hotels, which are seldom crowded, except during the first few days of the session, there will be open, eight or ten private boarding houses, which, alone, could accommodate two hundred persons. Vistitors need not be deterred from coming to this oity, from a fear of bad accommodation. Our crowd will be large, but our Hotel proprietors have a way of pnttting away large numbers, conveniently, which is not the case iu other cities, as we have frequently noticed. The late fire has uot in the least affected the arrange ments for accommodating the visitors to the city. On the contrary, it has extended the facilities for entertain ment, by the opening of larger houses for reception. California Congressmen. —The Hon. M. S. Latham member elect from California, arrived in the Northern Light, from California. Senator Gwin, lady and fami ly, Senator Weller, and Hon. J. A. McDougal, were to leave California on the etearner leaving on the sth instant. Stop the Clamor ! We hear daily complaints about the obstruction of streets and side walks with carriages, wagons, refuse of | shops, foundaries, &0., <fcc. until the matter ought no longer to be overlooked. For the benefit of all concern ed, we respectfully call the City bather s attention to the following sections of the ei f y ordinances : Sect. 13—No person shall place in any street or upon any side walk casks, boxes, iron or other obstructions. ******** No person shall, without permission from the Coun cil, deposit any building material or earth in an\ of the streets or on any of the side walks of this city. No person shall keep in the street or on any side ; walk in said city any firewood or any species of wheel carriage for a longer time than twelve hours. l^uEKY —A friend at our elbow wishes to know what rent the City Treasurer receives from Livery Stables, Carriage Warehouses, fcc., for street room? No person shall deposit in any street or on any side walk any shavings *r brick bats, or other refuse of ‘ building material, or permit those there to remain for a longer period than twelve hours. The following paragraph supplies the desideratum in j theory — Any person violating any of the provisions of this j gection shall be cited by the Marshal to appear before j the Mayor or Mayor and Council, to answer such charge or charges 5 and upon conviction thereof shall be fined not exceeding twenty ollars for each vio lation and for each day such violation may continue to exist. [Whata bill some would have to foot if the ac counts were balanced !] For fear lest the ordnances may have become rusty j in the memory of some, we call attention of those whose duty it is to enforce them to the Forty-Ninth Section which points out the manner in which the fines shall be collected. We have done our duty, Messrs. Mayor, Council men, Marshal, Deputy Marshal, and hope you will look to the ordinances. Remember “he that is faithful over a few things shall be made ruler over many’’—the converse need not be expressed. Some of you under stand us. A word to the wise, &c. HT’ We have been shown some sierescopic pictures from Woodbridges Daguerrean Gallery —anew feature in the art and which for finish and effect surpasses any thing we have ever seen. Mr. Woodbridge, as will be seen by reference to his advertisement, has recently rc* turned with all the latest improvements in his elegant art to which he lends a master hand. 1 O’* The Democrats of Stewart county have nomina ted the following ticket for county officers: For Sheriff—D. C. Thornton. “ Clerk Sap. Conrt —E. F. Kirksey. “ “ Inferior Court —D.W. Surles. “ Tax Receiver—James Armstrong. {yC/” The New Haven Register thinks the reason why the thanksgiving proclamation of the Governor of Massachusetts was so short, is to be found in the fact that there are so many and various religious creeds in j Massachusetts, that it is difficult to write a Proclama tion that would be satisfactory to all ! Hon. John A. Dix and the Administration .—This gentleman in a reply dated the 34th ult., to a request to address a meeting at Rochester, N. Y., urges that Gen. Pierces administration to be generously sustained approves its policy as far as developed, particularly in the Kosta case, and highly commends, from personal knowledge, the Treaury Department as worthy of praise. 0“ Commodore Perry’s squadron arrived at Japan on the th 3th July, and left again on the 17th. The were well and kindly received by the inhab itants, but the opening of offioial negotiations had been postponed ntil spring when the matter will be duly entered upon between the two author ities. Governor of Vermont,. —Robison, the Democrat ic candidate, has been elected Governor of Ver mont. United States Senator. —The Hon. Mr. Bell has been re-elected to the United States Senate from Ten nessee. O’ The Hon. Henry R. Jackson, our Charge to Austria, according to late acconnts made his official visits to the Court on the Bth October. Dr. Hines. —ln our evening edition we stated that this notorious character had made a second advent into onr city. Although we were tolera bly sure of his idenity, as well as great manv who had previously seen the Doctor, yet as he had not acknowledged himself to be the renown* ed swindler and forger, there was a slight doubt on the minds of many ; but now every shadow of doubt has been dispelled, for on being closely questioned by the Cheif of Police, Mr. O’Leary, I and recorder Winter, he became himself again, j —discarded his aliases, and stood forth a self confessed Doctor Hines—one of the most no- : torious characters of the age. The Recorder I questioned him as to the reasons which induced him to return to the city, from which, a few j years since, he had been so ignominously ex pelled. He replied that he had come out here on a speculation, and that he expected to make sixty or seventy thousand dollars out of the Government. It is very strange that coming out here with such noble intentions, he should have so soon surrendered up his higher aspira tions, and stooped to the commission of s© petty an act as the one he now stands accused of— that is, swindling a small boy out of the insig nificant sum of four dollars. We congratulate our citizens upon the fortunate circumstance, which led to his arrest and recognition, however, for he might have made some of them bleed pret ty freely.— N. O. Delta. Senator Douglass among the Calmuck Tar* tars —The Paris correspondent of the Cincin nati Gazette , says : Mr. Douglass has just returned from an exten sive tour, which embraced Italy, Greece, Syria, Turkey, Russia, Prussia, Belgium and France! He leaves here Thursday, and after travelling through Scotland and Ireland, will take steamer I at Liverpool, on the 19th of this month, for the j United States. He looks well, has enjoved his ! trip and is “chock full,’’ of good stories'', start- j ling ad\entures, and intervention arguments, with which to astonish the natives in °the next sitting of Congress. He has had a long con ference with Reschild Pasha at Constantinople, with Count Nesselrode, at St. Petersburg and* with many other great men ; and ha has oome to the conclusion that Louis Napoleon is the great est in Europe, that France is the best gorverneti country, and her people the most enlightened’ Mr. Dounglass travelled over the principal parts of Russia in a long carriage, which travelled night and day at the rate of eight and ten miles ai° hour. It contained a sleeping room and kitchen, so that he seldom left it. He penetra ted to the confines of Tartary, where a grand annual fair was going on, at which there were 800,000 persons, Siberians, Russians, Aus trians, Calmuck Tartars, Circassian, Georgians, Turks and Persians.’’ [From the Augusta Constitutionalist.] List of Premiums. We have already published a list of the diffe rent articles to which premiums were awarded or honorable mention made. The following are the remarks of the Secretary at the close of his report: The above list embraces the premiums award ed at the annual Fair of the Southern Central Agricultural Society, which closed on Friday last in this city. The incidents of such a busy week certainly suggest many and varied reflec tions to those who observed them, and which, no doubt, might be of profit to those who are hereafter to participate, either as managers or exhibitors in our Fairs. Unfortunately, how ever, for him whose duty it lias been made to sum up the matter —the everlasting, “Just one word with you, Mr. Lewis,” and “step this way | a moment,” have left him without the ability or inclination to indulge in reflections of his own. To the remarks and opinions of others we may here briefly allude: It is said on all sides tnat the number of exhibitors and visitors and articles exhibited is below that of previous Fairs. This is conceded. But it is true, at the same time, that with the exception of field crops, horticulture and floriculture, the exhibition has produced more that is rare and valuable than has ever any one exhibition. That the number of articles is reduced, has probably been the re sult of the new feature of the last premium list, j which offers no premium for a “second best” article. Two leading questions have been brought before the country by this exhibition, which, of themselves, when satisfactorily settled, will well repay the trouble and expense of holding it. One of these questions is, “What is the variety of Cotton which will produce the best I staple in the Upland of Georgia—with the inode ! of cultivation and management before ginning ?” I The gentlemen who were successful competi tors for the premiums of the Warehousemen and Society will be called upon for their views in writing upon this subject, and these views, when submitted, as they will be, to the public, will fairly place this question before the Planters. The next question that has been incidentally but properly raised by this exhibition, is “whose Ciin gins the besl cotton in the best way to pre : serve the staple.” This is a question as impor | taut to the Planters to the Gin maker, and which, in my humble judgment, it is important to set tle as soon as practicable. The successful j competitors for the cotton premiums, will also ’ be called upon to state the qualities of the gin i and the name of its maker, as a beginning to j wards the settlement. Ido not knew what the | lacts elicited by the late contest between the | gins would indicate. The gin of Mr. Latimer, who took the first premium, was by Oglesby— the gin of Mrs. Perrin, of Columbia, who took the third pitcher, was by Wynn. Dr. Whit- I ten’s gin, who took the 20 bale cup of the So ; eiety, was either by Oglesby or Henderson, |of Covington. The 10 bales of Mr. T. J. j Smith which took the Society’s cup, were five by Parkhurst, and five by Oglesby’s saw gin.— | So that perhaps nothing conclusive has yet been reached on this point. I suggest that the manufacturers of gins have their machines on the ground at the next Fair, and that they be tested by ginning cotton of the same quality and a comparison of the staples &c., when ginned. The Society has closed its Eighth Annual Meeting with a larger amount of silver plate on hand and a larger cash balance, than ever before —and what is better, with having produced a stronger conviction in the public mind, of the power of sucli a Society when well organized and conducted to do good. The inefficiency of the organization, as it now stands has engaged the attention of the Executive Committee, and they have appointed a special Committee to pre pare an address to the people in December next, upon the importance and plan of perfecting it. The great desideratum is a permanent fund and a permanent membership. Both could be obtain- i ed by admitting life members at twenty-five dol lars each, by which a large fund may be had, the interest only of which shall be used for So ciety purposes. D. W. Lewis, Secretary. j Augusta, Ga., Oct. 24, 1858. Jhetnale Delicacy. —Above every feature which ! adorns the female character, delicacy stands I foremost within the province of good taste.— ’ ot that delicacy which is perpetually in quest ot something to be ashamed of, which makes merit of a blush, and simpers at the false con struction its own ingenuity has put upon an in ! nocont remark ; this spurious kind of delicacy is 1 as for removed from good taste as from good ! feeling and good sense; but the high-minded deli j cacy which maintains its pure and undeviating war alike amongst women as in the society ot men, which shrinks from no necessary duty, and can speak, when required, with seriousness and kindness of things at which it would he ashamed to smile or to blush—that delicacy which knows how to confer a benefit without wounding the feelings of another, and which understands also how and when to receive one -that delicacv which can give alms without display, and advice without assumption, and which pains not the most humble or most susceptible being in crea tion. Influence of Health upon Opinions. —Verv mortifying is the reluctant experience that some unfriendly excess or imbecility neutralizes the promise ot genius. We see young who owe us a new world, so readily and lavishly they promise, but they never acquit the debt; they die young and dodge the account; or if they live, they lost themselves in the crowd.— R. W. Emerson. A Valuable Invention. —The most valuable invention which we have seen for a long tim e is one lately patented by Mr. Thomas Stubble field, of Columbus, Georgia, and the manufac ture of which is now extensively carried on by our esteemed fellow townsman, Mr A. Fulton. It is an alarm water guage, for the prevention of the explosion of steam boilers. Whenever the water passes below a certain point, the whistle blows, reminding the engineer of his neglect of duty, and at the same time inform ing all on board of it. We have one on the boiler of our steam press, with which we have experimented, and find it to answer our highest expectations. With it, it appears to us impos sible that an explosion can ever take place, un less an engineer chooses to commit wilful mur der. Mr Fulton is at present unable to supply the demand lor them, but will place afi applications on his registry, and fill orders as soon as possi ble. We commend it to the attention of om steamboat friends, many of whom have already availed themselves of its advantages.—Ex change. Commercial. New York, Nov. 1.
