FINEMENT.
rittakart I t toyat •,earresporkdent of
the Baltimpre Anierioan , has paid a
visit to the plantation. of a gr. 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,

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." David, awakening suddenly,
and forgetting where he was, asked
",if.,he didn't drive two
cartioads of_; coal to the .manse last
week; to let him sress P. 'grue,"
repliedAhe minieter t :, , , but. I slid'not
kgreitti !if tog MORE
no_ A law case, 'recently tried in Pa
ris, has brought to light a bit of very
Frenchy romance. 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. Thaneighbosvirrelt the odor of the
burning menu, broke into the "room
and-saved:as bot not, till .he was se
-verely. burned: pn ;ItOuiering he waa
tried for the murder of madame, and on
the trial these facts were elicited.
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.
