C.V. DARE, on February 13th, and;is said to have been one of the most brilliant affairs of the kind that ever took Mime in that vil lage. The house was , nstefully decorated with flowers .and evcrgrechs, and the bride was the recipient of many handsome and costly presents. Miss FANNIE E. F. LQNG, and Miss lilisstE C.

The 17th of February is the fifth anniversary of their organization. and they aro going to have a - ' wooden wedding " and festival to cel ebrate the event on the 17th and 18th; Perhaps with the exception that there is mil such paper as the Alert published in this place, and no such company as the "Alert Rose Company;" the aboveitent, which we clip from the Elmira Adrerliter of the 15th, may be correct. The Adger- User is not generally given to "mixing things," but when ft does, it makes a first•class job of it. All first-class papers are the same in this respect, Our read ers are no doubt aware of the fact. COMPANY K—0.1.--We clip the follow ing from the last week's Williamsport Banner: -, When the companies of tlie ( Twelfth Regiment were on their way the inau guration of .

The Banner was informed that the mem bers of the , Towanda Company were the guilty parties, and commented upon the case. = ,- Major BUITOWS, of this City, informs us that the Towasida boys were not the guil ty:parties, and that the real offenders be longed to a company located in the , soft coal region's of Tioga County, and, :that the guilty men were at once discharged when the company returned home Mfter the inauguration." .. f WANTS TUE COUNTY. DIVIDitu.-7WO clip the following froth the lirorthera Tier Gazette of February 6th The question of an additional law judge is agitating the minds of legal and other people, impelled by the fact that there is such an accumulation of legal business es to demand some relief te the courts. Among the names suggested for addition al law judge, there is none 'that seems to suit the nceessitiess of the case, as well as that, of W. IL. Carnochan, Esq. Careftd, well.versed in the intricacies of the law, clear-headed and capable, he - has the con fidence both of the people and the mem bers of the bar, and would fill the place with dignity and ,ability. But while the subject is up, would it not be better to have a just division of the 'county, and some provision by- which the records could be of some avail to. the people of Western Bradford. This would make an equiMble adjustment of the accumulation of work in the .courts, relieve them of their pressure. and givens an additional law judge_itt the best form. • . < - i Nalr atlO:Pann,,_ •",1 11 !;14 11 4* .:": of the Ikea-Barre Daily' Bee,otd of as 27044, wes issued their prospect= for s new : morning daily paper, yrbkh will reach Towanda and all stations along the "Pennsylvania and New York Railroad, so as to be delivered to subscrib ere between 6 and 7 o'clock A sr.

CIIANGE OP AGENTB.—JAMEEI :lilacymt t..txr„ Esq., who for the past 12 years ha's been the General Sales Agent of the Bitu minous Coal Association of Northern Pennsylvania, tendered his resignatidli on the 11th inst., and another one of our townsmen, J.

Ile will make a courteous and obliging officer, and the Association is to " be congratulated on 1? happy choice. The headquarters of the Agency will re main, as now, at Syracuse, N. Y. INTOXICATION NO DEFENCE IN A CRI3f- INAL CASE.--On the trial of JAMES DUET, in Columbia_ County, last week, Judge. ELWELL, in his charge to the jury, said : "It is my duty to tell you that the de fendant being intoxicated does not alter the nature of the offence. If a man ehooSe'/ to get drunk it is his own volun tary act. It is very different from mad ness or insanity not caused by the act of the person. That - voluntary species of madness which it is in a party's .power to abstain from he must answer for. How ever with regard to the intention, drunk-' , enness may perhaps be ddverted to ac ` cording to the nature of the instrument used. If a man uses a stick you would not infer a malicious intent so strongly against him if drunk when he made an intemperate use of it, as you would if he had used a different kind of weapon ; but when a dangerous instrument is used, which if used must produce grevious bod ily harm, drunkenness can have uo effect on the consideration of the malicious in tent of the party. Here the defendant used a revolver. ' The question for the jury is did he shoot at lieu:int. with _in tent to kill him."
