Sea brook on Edisto Island, and ,writma glowi4 account :Of observations:- Ile says • • 'The flower garden was laid out in most beautiful style. It abounded in serpentine walks, graded in the: very beet manner. The boxwood tree, the prickly ash, the cedar, and other va Southern rieties peculiar to the clime, were cat and trimed in all shapes and forms. Olives, figs, oranges, and lemons were growing in profusion.-- Roses - of the most costly description, camel las, jopoieicas, single, double, red variegated, and white, all in bloom. All varieties of flowers were scat tared' over the garden with a bounti I'M hand, while here and there beau tiful arbors were placed, with the sweet honey-auekle clinging 'to the svood-wbrit. fish.pond, containing goldfish was placed in the centre of the garden. A. fine house, with pine-. apples, geraniums, cactus, and other , plants, too delicate for this season of the year, was placed at the east enfi, the whole in Most'perfect order.— Everything that refined taste could suggest or enlightened science devise was produced to beautify thin most beautiful residence. On passing out of the flower .gai den into the superb walks and drives through the lawns and groves around the mansion, we were struck with the perfect order and beauty in which the plae.e had been laid. out. There was every variety of tree ; the live oak flourished in all his glory; the fig, the palmetto, the pine and the spruce. Here too, as in former gar dens, was found the prickly ash and the cedar, cut and trimmed in 'every conceivable shape; some in parallelo grams, some in square, some in vase, some in goblets upright, some in gob lets inverted, some circular, &c. At the western end' of the grove there was-a, large fish-pond, 'with a beautiful island, with a garden at tached, and arbor. Rock trout, and pickerel were sporting merrily, and only, waiting their master's pleasure to be caught. Then there was the terrapin pond, full of those delicious animals. The drives and walks were graded with pieces of broken oyster shells. A.very Jarge number of outhouses, suitable for every departnient of the plantation and for the mansion;front ed on the .Edisto river. They were built in a very careful manner. :From twelve to fifteen negro huts were sit. uated about two hundred yards from the mansion. A.ll.the buildings were whitewashed and kept neat and clean. Mr. Seabrook treated his slaves very kindly; they were well fed and well clothed and not overtasked. in the groves there were two bil liard honses, a bird,'a pigeon, a rabbit and a young: chicken houses, each constructed in the most approved manner, and,at ,great expense. Ar hors were placed-.in every part. Ter rapine, fish, oysters,. clams, early vegetable, were at hand. Everything that could satisfy appetite, oven of thia most luxurious, was to be had but with little trouble. Numerous servants were around, ready to obey the slightest whim of their master. A large vegetable garden was attach ed 'to the mansion: It was under the special care of a "servant, who (levet: ed his entire attention to it. When the master left he took a way all the young and able-bodied slaves and left the plantation in charge of foueold slaves. They took such good care in his absence, that they did not even take a vegetable out of the garden. A plenty - of corn and chickenS Were left behind for the. slties. The mansion — itself was a very fine building, with -all the appii- , ances of the Most modern house in the North. A fine ,- library, costing from three to five thousand dollars had been removed to at outbuilding, the floors of which were torn up and the books thrown underneath on the dirt Col Noble has,taken possession of the, plantation, and. intends having the..books sent - to Hilton Head- He alieadY,bas set a large party of ne groes-to W -- ,ork cleaning the house. When- Mr. 'Seabrook left, he carried away most of his valuables, but what was left the negrois from. the neigh boring plantations destrOyed in the most wanton manner. A SAD STORY Elopement of a Dozen .ZlTantueket Wives. Saturday evening last our , usu. ally quiet community got somewhat excited to hear that at least a dozen of our good citizens, who for years had enjoyed the Wee of matrimony found' themselves depleited by those w4P,afid isromy 4 o 'tiitSeetain theM eicicifesB,,ol4 arnd' lad ed them obedient and affectionate wives. Many a forlorn husband sat choking and silent at the supper table. Some had,,,to swalloW their grief and un dress the little ones who were sob bing at the absence of their, natural guardian. Lots of backs, unused 'to bending, had to. be bowed over the washtub and .the bathing-tube, to prepare Young America for Saturday night bed. Some furned,some grum bled, and some sat and silently dang led their watch-keys and chain, and some went stalking about by moon light to find if possible their abscon, ded half, and lend her :by the ear home to duty and dish-washing-- But it WAS all no_go. Saturday night rolled away, and SundaY and Mon day, and, Wises Were still wifeless, and husbands still,moody and aston ished. • After a while it leaked out that the ladies were Lows, "toot" by 'theni selved, and making good„ tv threat thezbad, often!' pronounced.,'W,tbeir -.better bah/as-to riyove to theta , that women conliLk - eep; a secret, and had skill enough alide and haVe a good time - -wherer . their wonderful Wise acres -of husbands -could not find them. They succeeded. Although every nook and corner of the town was-searched wherever h dozen pret ty you ng wives could hide theniselus, yet it availed nothing. They hid themselves, -and fed themselves, and enjoyed themselves,' while their anx ious husbands were passing and re passing, often within a few feet of them, and none the wiseria regard to their vicinity. We are informed that they made the candy, and worked it and ate in "peace; and whether any portion of the "sweetness long drawn out" was reserved to appease, the wrath and disappointment of their tired andturbulent htiebands., 'we are not posted. The sequel, howelier, is yet to: come; These gay _ and good-humored la dies are to hasie a turkey slipper as a penalty from their - obtuse husbands who when poking around with Jan. terns-and poorly trained terriers to look out or smell out the hiding place of a lot of women whocould keep a secret. They have got thern now safely at hoine, and - have promised the dear creatures if they will not serve them- so again they will no more "go to the lodge" when it is not lodge nor go down town to "meet a man" whose name they cannot tell, nor have "writing to do," when they shouldkhe with their wives and little ones —Nantucket Enquirer.

SCOTTISH HUMOR The following amusing anecdote is from ;an article in .Blackwood's Mag azine, on "Scottish Chara,c ter." "A minister of Crail had been long annoyed by the drowsy propensities in church of a farmer, one of his parishioners, "one David Cowan in Tronstrie;" and, remonstrating on the subject had his patience con ciliated by two cart-lOada of coal which the offender engaged_ to drive to the manse door. Nevertheless, "a few Sundays afterwards; Ur. Cowan, soon after the commencement of the sermon, fell 'into a sound sleep as formerly ; and not only so but made so much noise as to distirb the sister near him and the Minister. Air. Glass bore with it for a while; but at last being able to stand it no longer, de sired the people hi fli'es north loft— Auglice gallery—to "waken David Cowan."

A married man, the father.of a 'family, and a rich widow, fell despeiatelf in love and as they could not be married, decided that the next best thing Was to commit suicide. •Then they had another bright idea. They would make a sort of "eternal marriage" out of it and die "on the bridal bed of death."— So madame dressed herself in a superb marriage robe, and monsieur had his hair curled to perfection and wore enamelled boot's and broadcloth clothes. They sign ed a document stating, "we will at least be married ieeternity, since we cannot be on earth," and then closed the room, lighten bratier'of charcoal, joined hands over it, inhaled the fumes and soon be came insensible. The lady soon died, but ; the gentlemen fell on the burning char , coal, which caused his clothes to catch fire.

KT" The San Francisco correspondent of the New York Times relates a queer story of Mr: Eddy, theator, and Miss Joey Gougenheini, the stetress. They de sired to:give certain parties in California the slip, and in order to avert suspicion Miss Joey embarked on board a Dutch ship bound to Melbourne, and Mr. Eddy, with the bagglige and funds of both, secret. ed himself on hoard the clipper ship Carrier Dove, bound for Cork, the captain of which was to put Eddy aboard the Dutch ship outside the bar. Both ships sailed with.the, ebb tide, but on getting outside they stood on different tacks, and were separated sortie miles. The captain of the Carrier Dove, old sailor like, thought more of a mile gained to windward than all the actors and actresses he ever saw, and instead of putting Mr. Eddy on board the Dutch Ship Squared away with a cracking breeze. The actor, it is thmight, must have felt unhappy, but "to Cork and a market" he went, willy-nilly. On board the Dutch ship a similar scene was enacted. When Miss Joey saw the state of affairs, and the truth flashed upon her that her wardrobe, her money and her manager were heading for Cork and she for Australia, she raved and storm ed and tore her beautitul hair, screamed and cried and offered Imheard of sums to be put on board the Carrier Dove, but the captain smoked his short Dutch pipe very complacently, and when the pilot left the deck Miss Joey had gone off in a tragic faint in the cook's arms, upsetting his tea pot and playing the deuce with the cap tain's breakfast, and was soon probably a hundred miles on her voyage, minus mon. ey, minus wardrobe, and minus agent. A MAN PROSECUTED FOR FEEDING HIS VtSTTORS ON. ROAST CaT.—The .Pittsburg Dispatch says :—A hearing will take place before Alderman Scott, on next Tuesday, of a singular charge preferred by J. E. Henrichs, keeper of a beer hall on Federal street, against Conrad Eberhart, .a brewer, at the foot of Troy Hill. It appears that some dispute has arisen between Eberhart and Kauffirian, a rival breWer, growing out of the competition in business; but a• bout ten days ago an invitation was ten dered by Eberhart to Kauffman, Hen- ricks, and several others, to partake of a supper.. The invitation was accepted, the parties supposing that Eberhart Intend ed to drop the feud, and quite a number assembled at the. banquet. Among other. rare viands on the table was one repre sented as a roast rabbit, which Eberhart was particUlarly urgent that his guests should paetake ofliberally, and his wishes in this resrect are said to have been fully complied with. The affair of the supper was regarded is an offering of an olive branch on the part of Eberhart, and hence all parties were particularly desirous of making the most of the occasion. Con ceive their indignation and disgust when they learned, in the course cf foUr or five days, that what they had eaten of in full faith as rabbit, was in reality. a roasted cat ! Information was at once made be fore Alderman Scott, the charge bping laid under an act of 1834, which inflicfaa pen alty of five dollars. It is said that the in-- dticreet admissions of the accused will en able the prosecution to furnish evideneeto sustain the charge, and there will be no lack of energy in the prosecution.
