MAILMAN-ANA. "THE CAMPBELLS ARE COMIN' I" Scarcely out of Scott's novels can a scene be found more dramatic, touching and pic turesque, than that of the relief of Luck now, described by a lady, the wife of an officer at Lucknow, in a letter published in the London Times. To give its due effect, it should be re membered that Gen. Havelock was not an hour too soon in bis relief, as the advance of the' enemy's batteries and mines had settled thfe fate of the garrison; and it should be known that in the continual up roar of the cannonade, and the obstructions of military works and buildings, the belea guered and devoted garrison did not hear or see anything of the advancing relief until the battle had been fought outside, and the relieving force was marching up to the gates. "On every side death stared us in the face; no human skill could avert it any longer. We saw the moment approach when we must hid farewell to earth, yet without feeling that unutterable horror which must have been experienced by the unhappy victims of Cawnpore. We were j resolved rather to die than to yield, and ■ were fully persuaded that in 24 hours all would be over. The engineers had said so, and all knew the worst. We women strove to encourage each other, and to perform the light duties which had been assigned us, such as conveying orders to the batteries and supplying the men with provisions, especially cups of coffee, which we prepar ed day and night. I had gone out to try to make myself useful, in company with Jessie Brown, the wife of a corporal in my 1 husband's regiment. Poor Jessie had been in a state of restless excitement all through the siege, and had fallen away visibly within the last few days. A constant fever con sumed her, and her mind wandered occa sionally, especially that day when the R < - : olleetions of home seemed powerfully pres ent to her. ; At last, overcome with fatigue, she lay j down on the ground, wrapped in her plaid. I sat beside her, promising to awake her when, as sin; -aid, " her father should re turn from the ploughing." She fell at ' length into a profound slumber, motionless, and apparently breathless, her head resting in my lap. 1- niys enliven the scene, no wild boast to howl. 1 stand there alone, the only representative of God's living world—the only being that has life or can move. Every sound that I hear, every motion that I see, is made by myself. I hear nothing but the pulsation of my own heart, my own footsteps, or now and then, possibly, in the distance, the deep rumbling of n falling snow-bank. The sensation of utter loneliness and isolation creeps over me. My heart beats; lam up pressed as with discordant sounds. Silence has ceas ed ro be negative , it ha> become sterniy positive; I hear, sec, and feel it. Its presence is unendurable. I spring to mv feet; I plant them heavily in the snow to drown its presence, and i rush back to the vessel, glad to find refuge in its dull, dull life of horrid inactivity." THE ROYAL MARRIAGE AT LON DON. The English papers are filled with ac counts of the marriage of the Princess Royal with Prince Frederick William of Prussia, which took place in the Chapel Royal of St. James's Palace on Monday morning, January 25th. London w.ts filled with royal guests, chiefly from the German courts. Among them were the King of :he Belgians, the Duke and Duchess of Brabant, the Prince and Princess of Prus sia (parents of the bridegroom,) the Duke and Duchess of Saxe-Ooburg, the Count of Flanders, and many others. The ceremony of marriage was performed by the Arch bishop of Canterbury, assisted by the Bish ops of London, Oxford and Chester, the Dean of Windsor and the Sub-Dean of the Chapel Royal. There were three proces sions, the Queen's, the Bridegroom's, and the Brides. The latter w tfs supported by her father. The ceremonies were of the most imposing character. Before the ser vice, a choral, written for the occasion, was sung by the boys of St. Paul and West minster Abbey choirs. At the conclusion, Handel's Hallelujah Chorus was sung; as the procession of' the Bride and Bridegroom left the Chapel, Mendelssohn's Wedding March was played. There were illumina tions and various festivities in London and throughout tne Kingdom. The Bride and Bridegroom wore to leave in a day or two for Berlin, where a grand reception was prepared for them. The fullest particulars are given of the appearance of the royal couple. After the ceremony, the bride, who bad been very composed, gave way, and threw herself in her mother's arms, in a burst of emotion. JgigfQuite a mistake lately occurred in a love affair at Duanesburg, N. Y T . A couple of young persons agreed to elope together, but by mistake the gentleman put his lad der up to the window, of the room next to the one in which his sweetheart slept, and which proved to be that in which her mam ma, a handsome widow, reposed. She turn ed the mistake to her own advantage, got into his arms, returned his affectionate em braces, was borne by him to the carriage, and by preserving becoming silence until daylight, kept him blind to his error, and by the potent power of her blandishments, actually ehanned him into matrimony with herself. The Schenectady Reflector gives these facts on the authority of a responsi ble correspondent. J&Many arc led by their vices; many of us follow them without any leading at all. Letter from Governor Wise To the Philadelphia Meeting. Governor Wise says that a careful review ol' the President's Message constrains him to differ with the President of his choice. He protests against the mode in which the Lecompton Constitution was pretended to be submitted as anti-republican and oppres- j sive, and as offensive to the self-respect and moral sense of a free people. After expressing the opinion that the Kan- i sas-Nebraska act was an "enabling act" of ! itself, ho admits that the conduct of the To- ! pekaites was violent and unlawful, and that ! their opponents acted under lawful authority ! up to tlte submission of the constitution to the people. But that has nothing to do with the issue. Is the constitution the act and deed of the people, and is the schedule republican f The wrong of the Topekaites will not justify the wrong of the Lecompton Convention, nor I euro the defects of the Lecompton schedule. { which, though providing for its ratification or rejection, was submitted for approval alone, without allowing a vote upon its rejection. After a review of the Lecompton Con vention's election jugglery. Governor Wise j proceeds to give a Southerner's view of the i question : The Democratic party had just come out of a severe and doubtful conflict with the Know Nothing secret society, the most odious J feature of which was a " test-oath." Now j behold an honest, peaceful, law abiding citi j zen approaching the polls in Kansas under this schedule; I imagine myself an ultra- Southern slaveholder put to an ordeal of a challenge uuder this clause of the schedule; I am anxisus, very anxious, to record my vote for my right to hold the chief part of the little | property I own ; I am told that I have the j right by the grant of the high Lecompton j Convention, to vote for or against property in j slaves; I approach the polls to exercise the right; lam challenged; the Bible is held out j to me to swear first to "support the C'onstitu j tion of the United States;" I ask why impose ! an me that oath? I urge that tlte obligation ! is binding on ine without the oath—that I ! love and obey the Constitution of the United States, and that is made the supreme law of the land, binding of itself—but, being willing to support that instrument, and anxious to vote for my property, I nssent to swear to support it. But iam told I must, in the sec ond place, swear also to support the Lecomp ton " Constitution if adopted, under the pen alties of perjury under the territorial laws." I redden into wrath under the insult of such an oath tendered to a freeman at the polls— to support a constitution, if adopted, before its adoption ! 1 denounce the obstacle to my freedom of election. It is in vain; I must take it cr leave my property unprotecttd 1 suppose —the supposition is almost intolerable I take tbe oath : f am then, and then only, granted the privilege of voting. I vote for ; slavery, but against the constitution. lam i then told that my vote cannot he counted, yet 1 I am sworn to suppert, if adopted, what I | have voted against 1 Stung by insult, and j then disfranchised, I go away maddened to violence by injustice, inequality, and insult ; added to injury! Is that my act and deed? ! Is that republican? If Caligula was a tyrant for posting laws too high to bo read by the Roman people, what does this deserve to be called, which puts the whole and a part to gether. so that a minority for the whole may prevail over a majority for or against the part? \ Is it not the very hocus pocus and legerde main of keeping the promise to the ear of the ; people and breaking it to their hopes? I tell you that no proud free people will stand insult and outrage like this, and such despotism is enough to drive peaceful and good citizens to violence for a redress of grievances. But the question is not whether the Lecompton Con stitution has been opposed unlawfully, but is it the act and deed of the sovereign people, whose it purports to ba—and is it republican in its submission by the schedule of the Le compton Constitution? And mark, tots, that this test oath is applied when the constitution is to be sent to Congress from a Territory for approval. After taking this oath, the casuist may determine whether he could, if the con stitution be adopted, oppose it before Con gress, though he voted against it at the polls. lie contends that there was obviously a sinister and anti-republican purpose in thus giving an unfair election as to part of the constitution, with no election as to the whole. He denies the assertion of the President that no people could have proceeded with more regularity in the formation of a con stitution than the people of Kansas have done. The people were not allowed a fair election at all. A lair election could not be held under tac schedule as appears from its face. lie contradicts tbe President's idea that the admission of Kansas would speedily end the agitation in Congress, and localize it in Kansas, lie declares that it never can be local again. It is all essential that the settlement shall be just, right and equal, and, if not so, it is sure to be mischievous to that party sustaining power without right, and doing wrong that good may come. The letter concludes with the following warning appeal to the friends of the Pres ident : " W have proudly, heretofore, contended only f®r equality and justice; but if this be wantonly done, without winning a stake— the power of a Blave State thereby—it will be worse than vain. It will be snatching power per fas aut nefas, to be lost "speedily" with the loss f something of far more worth than political votes— aur moral prestige. If we are not willing to do justico, we can't ask for justice ; if we can't agree to equality, wo must New Series—Vol, 111, No. 14 g expect to be denied it. It is our bull goring the anti slavery ox. Suppose we had a ma jority of slaveholders in that territory ; sup pose a minority of abolitionists Jiad gotten the census and registry into their hands and had kept fifteen t-ut of thirty-four counties out f the Convention ; suppose they had formed a constitution with a clause prohibit ing slavery, and had scnt.it to Congress with out submitting it to a majority of the legal voters; or suppose they had submitted all parts of the constitution to-the popular vote, excepting the one clause prohibiting slavery, knowing it would be voted down if submitted to the majority of the people; suppose such a " boot on the other l"g" hud been submitted to Congress, and we hud then heard the ab soluteness of a Convention contended for by black republicans, demanding of Congress to sustain the doctrine of " legitimacy." I tell you that every Southern man would have been in arms and would be roused to the shedding of blood, rather than submit to Congress fastening upon a majority of pro slavery people an arbitrary rescript of a mere convention, unauthorized to proclaim its con stitution without an express grant. This is the same principle, accompanied by trickery and fraud. "We are willing to do unto oth ers as we would have them do unto us." The Southern people ask for no injustice, no ine quality. "We are told that' prompt admission' ot Kansas as a State will end the agitation in Congress and localize it in Kansas. What is the Kansas question ? Is it local to Kansas? No. It never can bo local again.- It has pervaded all places and all classes in our country. Let Congress endorse this schedule of legerdemain, let the South insist 011 it, let the Northern Democracy be required to con sent to the injustice, and the precedent be comes of universal application and citation against us for ail time. Not only will the example plead, but wiii be a plea in continu ous cases of similar import and danger, ris ing successively as long as our vast territories to the Pacific shall be filling up. It comes up again and again every year, from territo ries extending from Masilla Valley to Daco tah. Flatter not ourselves, then, that any mode of adjustment will do because it is the ' speediest'* for Kansas. It is all essential that the settlement shall be just and right and equal. Jf not, it is sure to be mischievous to that party which has snatched power withou. right, and done wrong that good may conn of it. To do justice is always the beat policy. If all would ' demand what is right and sub mit to nothing that is wrong,' injustice ar.c oppression could never be perpetratod or tol erated. The ulterior effects of adopting the Lecompton constitution, with its schedule an nexed, will be worse than referring back the question to the territorial decision. It will arraign this administration, and the democ racy and the South, for demanding more than is right, and for forcing resistance to wrong. It will Lc jagging the lion of a majority whilst the hand of a minority is in its mouth. It will return the chalice to our own lips when the Kansas question again and again arises in North Texas, New Mexico, in Mesitla Val ley, and in all our boundless domain of un settled and fast settling territory. It will drive front us tljousands.of honest democrats in the North, who can willingly stand by us for justice and equality, but who must leave us when we demand more and refuse justice and equaiitv to others. It will raise the Black Republican flag over the Capitol in the next struggle for power, and that, then, will raise the last dread issue of union or disuni on I Are not some aiming to drive us to such extremities as will raise that issue past beinc laid? " For my part, gentlemen, I address you as the friend of Mr. Buchanan and his adminis tration. They have my best wishes and warmest friendship, and I would save both from danger and defeat. * * * * * "Very truly yours, IIEXRV A. WISE. To John W. Forney, David Websters, Daniel Dougherty, K. t.

Gannuiig's Menagerie is wintering two miles west of Paulding, Paulding county. Am ong the other animals was a hyena, said to be the largest in the United States. The animal was very ferocious, and had twice bitten his keeper. Early Wednesday morn ing the hyena escaped. Search was in stantly made, and later in the morning he was discovered in the grave yard, having dug U2> and partly devoured two or three dead bodies. Several of the citizens rush ed in to take it, when it turned on its as sailants, striking down a German day la borer named Jacob Poffenberg, and crush ed the head of the unfortunate man in its jaws, killing him instantly. The brute then made its escape, after tearing the flesh from the right arm and chest of a lad, who is not expected to recover. The animal succeeded in making good its escape. The citizens are much excited. Parties -are scouring the woods, and the Menagerie men have been notified by some of the cit izens to remove*their establishment at once. Cleveland Jlerald. A Warning Apparition. —Mrs. Dodge, wile of a captain killed at Agra, while ly ing upon a sofa in her residence at Dept ford, was startled to see, as she supposed, her husband standing before her. She rose to meet him, but he was not there. She even run to the garden after him. When she told her friends what she had seen, they laughed and pronounced it a fantasy. Subsequently it was ascertained that Gap tain Dodge was killed on the very night of the apparition. lady hung herself a short time since, in Holmes county, Mass., on account of her husband having been caught play ing cards with a negro.
