Spirited Bride.
Spirited Bride. A couple were going to
be married, and had proceeded as far as the
church door; the gentleman then stopped his
intented bride,
and thus unexpectedly addressed her; My
dear Eliza, during our courtship I have told you the whole; when we are
married, I shall insist upon three things. What are they? asked the
lady. In the first place, said the bridegroom, I shall sleep alone, I
shall eat alone, and find fault when thereis no occasion, can you submit
to these conditions?
O yes sir, very easily, was the reply, for if you sleep alone, I shall
not, if you eat alone, I shall eat first; and as to your finding fault without
occasion, that I think may be prevented, for I will take care you shall never
want an occasion. The conditions being thus adjusted, they proceeded to
the altar, and the ceremony was performed.

Baltimore Gazettte
We have met with a singular article in a late number of the Journal de Smyrne,
received at the office of the Baltimore Gazettte. It states that a most interesting
discovery has recently been made in Moldavia which consists in extinguishing every
kind of fire or conflagration by throwing chopped straw upon it. The agricultural
Society of Brunn, on the 27th January last, made several experiments to test the
truth of the discovery, which were attended with complete success. It was found
that on pouring into a fire grease, pitch, or spirits of wine, already burning in
jars, and afterwards throwing chopped straw upon the whole, the fire was almost
immediately extinguished. The Society also caused a large fire to be made with
straw, billets of wood, paper and when the whole was well kindled, the fire was
extinguished in a moment by the same means as before. It is somewhat remarkable
that the chopped straw used in these experiments, so far from being consumed
by the fire, was found, on the contrary, almost untouched, and could be used a
second time for the same purpose. A bar of iron heated red hot, and thrust into
a basket filled with chopped straw, not only failed to set the straw on fire, but
became sensibly cool. A last trial consisted in putting into a heap of chopped
straw, some inches in depth, a bag of wheat, upon which was spread a quantity
of gun-powder covered with sheets of paper, and then covering the heap with
bundles of straw, which were set on fire in different placesafter the straw was
entirely consumed and the ashes swept away, the chopped straw underneath was
found untouched, and the bag with the powder and paper, was withdrawn from
the heap without having been in the slightest degree affected by the fire.
It is to be remarked that it is necessary to throw the chopped straw with some
force upon the flames, and to stir it afterwards, if possible.
Complimentary.
A Yankee and an English capitan, each in a schooner, tried their speed
in Gibraltar bay, when our countryman beat John Bull all hollow. They
met on shore the next day, and the Englishman swore he had never
been outsailed before: Just like me, said Jonathan, for my Jemina
never beat nothing afore.
Just a j oke
Jim, youve been drinking? What, me?
No I havent, Ive been looking on while another feller
was drinking and it was too much for me.

The Northern Pacific Excursion.
About 200 prominent men have accepted invitations to attend the cer-
emonies in honor of the completion of the Northern Pacific railroad.
The connecting rail between the two completed sections of the road will
be laid on September 8th, at a point about 50 miles west of Helena,
Mont, in the valley of the Little Blackfoot river. Excursion trains con-
taining the invited guests will leave New York and Philadelphia on the
29th instant, via the New York Central, Erie, and Pennsylvania roads.
General Grant, Secretary Lincoln, and Hon. William M. Evarts will be
of the party. Mr. Evarts is to deliver the oration upon the occasion of
the driving of the last spike. It is expected that the governors of all the
states and territories traversed by the Northern Pacific will be present
at the ceremonies; also, several members of Congress and two or three
members of the English Parliament. The St. Paul and Minneapolis
people will give a banquet to the party on the evening go September
3, at lake Minnetoka. After the exercises on the 8th, the excursionists
will proceed to Portland, Oregon, arriving there on the 11th. They will
spend about ten days in visiting Puget sound, Victoria, B.C., and the
Williamette valley in Oregon. Those who return to New York will reach
there about September 30.
Fo r e i gn Ne ws
We learn on Extra Albany Eve. Journal that the Cambria arrived
at New York on Sunday last, bringing one week later news from
Europe.
We see but very little of importance. The French Elections have
passed quietly, although the usual cry of bribery and corruption is
raised by the minority.
The news from other portions of the continent is exciting, and it is
difficult to give an opinion of the result.
The Irish are getting pledges for Repeal, talking and swaggering over
their intentions, but taking every precaution to keep out of the way of
danger, while old John is watching their movements, club in hand.
Spain and Portugal are trembling on the eve of a revolution.
There has been another battle in Denmark. Hamburg, Baden and
other cities are in a general muss; and to sum up, we think there
is more rowdyism than patriotism in the whole movement. @

A Jol l y Red Nose.
A Jolly Red Nose We never thought there was much jollity about a
red nose, and having reflected a great deal on this subject, could never
discover any sufficient reason for the origin of this well known term,
a jolly red nose. We never knew that it clevated the standing of any
one in society, that it was more useful in any way than other noses, or,
that those possessing it were unusually agreable to themselves or others.
The virtue of a nose is very great. Every one has read of the distinctive
characteristics of the Roman nose, the Grecian nose, the Aquiline nose,
the Pug nose, and all the most celebrated varieties of noses; but no one
has ever heard of any especial fitness for office in a red nose. They are
especially disagreable to flies, which buzz about, but never touch them.
Even when asleep, they keep the musquitoes at bay, and this is perhaps
one of their greatest advantages.

The Duke de Rei chst adt .
It is said in one of the late English papers that a short time before
his death, the young Napoleon wrote for himself the following epitaph,
which is stamped with a more touching melancholy than could be
conveyed in an inscription of ten times its length:
Here lies the Son of the Great Napoleon:
He was born King of Rome,
And died a Colonel in the Austrian service.

English Judges
In the Pen and Ink Sketches of the Boston Atlas is the following account
of Judges of England.
The Judges are a solemn looking series of individualsbound in scarlet and
ermine. In Denmans face there is as much real dignity and majesty as in
that of any ancient statue which i ever saw. Willams physiognomy is
indicative only of a certain whipper snapper sort of smartness. Maules
looks as if it were difficult for him to repress a smile. Parkes is massive
and solemn. Rolfes full of benevolent acuteness; but Coleridges is actually
beautiful. Some months since in an article in Blackwoods Magazine
Warren, author of the Diary of a late Physician described itI do not
exactly remember his words, and i have not the work before me to refer
to, but it was to the effect that Coleridges features bore a most perfect
resemblance of the Savior which we see in some of the paintings by the
old masters. I have looked on Coleridges countenance often and see fresh
beauty in it at every glance. Asa Judge he ranks high, but no higher than
his deservings. With a heart brimming over with human kindness, he
possesses all the firmness requisite for his high position.Once I heard him
pass sentence of death upon a poor wretchthe Judges large full eye swam
with tears and his face was deadly pale. I question if the criminal felt more
agony than his earthly Judge. He is nephew of the poet and philosopher
L.T. Coleridge, whose genius seems to have been to a great extent
hereditary.
The following remarkable incident is taken from a
letter writte by a distinguished officer who commanded
at Saltillo,
to a friend in this city: While the battle was going
on, there came over us a gentle shower, and the most
beautiful rainbow appeared(on our side) that i ever
saw.
I then thought that the Lord was for us, and cared
not who was against us. In about an hour afterward, there came up a thick black
cloud, which extended itself across the valley, immediately over the two armies, entirely
concealing them from my view, from which i could hear peal after peal of heavy
thunder, and see the sharp lightning descend; at the same time
I could hear the roar of the cannon of both armies, then engaged in deadly conflict;
as though Heavens artillery was contending against that of feeble man.
During the recent trip of Northener steamer to this
city from Charleston, the watch on deck were alarmed
at about day breach one morning, with the cry, a
man overboard! and a boat was instantly lowered and
maned for the purpose, if possible, of rescuing the
sufferer. After pulling back in the wake of the steamer
some three quarters of a mile, the customer was found
manfully pulling foot and hand for New York, but
exceedingly tired of his efforts to keep with the vessel.
He was hauled over the side, and the steamer,having
laid too during the interim, he was soon placed in his
state room, rather exhausted but not mercurially
drowned.
It seemed that, in a fit of night walking, he had, arisen from his bed,
and, in his pantaloons and slippers, gone forward as far as the windlass,
when, steping upon the railing, he made the plunge with the words, I
am going! The splash and exclamation were heard by the watch on deck,
and the alarm given, which resulted in his rescue.
We learn that he is a gentleman doing business in the lower part of the
city. He knew nothing of the circumstance until he found himself in the
Atlantic off Cape Hatteras.
Dangerous Somnambulism.
