marriages in China.
Rev. Justua ‘Doolittle's work on the
"Social Life Of the Chinese," gives the
following account of the Chinese court
ships and marriages:
Bow. MARRIAGES ARE BROUGHT ABOUT.
To refrain from saying and doing any
thing 'which will tend to prevent 'or
break off a contemplated marriage be
tween families is considered to be a good
thing, or 'a - meritorious course.," The
two families quite often do not have any
direct and intimate knowledge of each
others'-'condition and character. By the
employment of go-betweens they en
deavor to learn as much abOut each
other as possible before the conclusion
of the match. In doing this,. the go
between, if a stranger to them, is obliged
to make inquiries of the neighbors of
the parties. The neighbors, as soon as
they understand that a , betrothal is,
ontemplated, never tell the truth, the
whole truth, and nothing but the truth;
unless they happen to be intimate
riends and relations of the go-between,
or one of the parties _.themselves—acting
on.the'principle of not doing or saying
anything which might be the means of
_preventing the contemplated betrothal.
For example, if the girl is ugly-looking
or of bad character, she represented as
beautiful or exceedingly virtuous. Even
though something seems to be against
the lass, still she has many Other recom
mendations, which more than counter
balance, etc. If the boy is of bad habits,
or stupid, the neighbors report the:very
reverse. It has become a kind of pro
-verb that neighbors cannot be trusted
inwhat they say in regard to a contem
plated betrothal. They seldom, or
never tell the truth if it would be apt to
lead the go-betweens to look elsewhere
for a companion for the girl or boy of
their employers.
A WEDDING RECEPTION IN CHINA.
Neighbors, uninvited friends, or even
perfect strangers to the parties, if they
please, are allowed to come in and see
the bride during the evening of the day
of her marriage. This is a very trying
ordeal for her, as she may not refuse to
be seen by them, nor absent herself from
the gaze of the public. She is obliged to
stand while a company of spectators
observes her appearance and criticises
her deportment. They indulge often
times in great liberty of remark about
her, which she must hear with com
posure. She must conduct herself with
decorum, neither laughing, nor- becom
ing angry, nor engaging in conversation
with any but her assistants, who attend
her constantly, and aid her in walking
and standing, presenting a placid and
unmoved countenance, notwithstanding
the witty jokes or the coarse imperti
nence of the spectators. What at other
times would be likely to be regarded as
insulting and highly indecent, must be
passed over as though she heard it not.
Should she allow herself to laugh, or
should she forget herself enough to
manifest anger, it would be a source of
annoyance and regret. Her husband
generally absents himself from the public
room during the evening. It not un
frequently occurs that some of his inti
mate friends or neighbors stay very late,
refusing to depart unless he pledges
them a considerable sum of money with
which to pay the expense of a feast on
the following day.
The large candles which were trans
ferred to the bride's room from the re
ception room at the close of the ceremony
of "worshiping heaven and earth,"
are permitted to burn all day and into
the evening if they will. As it is
eminently desirable that candles should
burn all the night long in the bridal
chamber, these are usually during the
evening exchanged for another pair,
which it is calculated will last until the
following morning. These are two feet
long, more or less, and of a bright red
color. Usually on one is made, in a
'lively yellow color, a picture of adragon,
by' he use of gold leaf, or of a liquid
preparation called "gold oil;" and on
the other the picture of a phoenix, re
presenting respectively the groom and
his bride. Sometimes suspicious char
acters or phrases are written on the
candles; these, lighted on the evening
of the wedding, and arranged on the
table in the bride's room, are desired to
burn during the whole night, and as
much longer as they will last. It would
be considered very unlucky should they
be extinguished by accident. Should
one or both of them go out during the
night, such an event would foretell the
untimely death of one or both of the
parties. The material of the candles
should not melt and trickle down the
sides. This is regarded as a bad omen,
the trickling down of the material being
thought to'resemble the flowing of tears
-down the cheeks, and betokens, on
wedding occasions, that there will be
much sorrow in the family of the newly
married couple or that they will not live
happily together. If the candles should
burn out about the same time, it is sup
posed that the couple will die about the
same period in the future; and should
one burn much longer than the other ) it
is feared that one will long survive
the other.
A Human Mole—Remarkable Escape
frem Jail.
A horse-stealer named Hiram Carpen
ter recently escaped from the Orleans
•eounty jail, at Albion, New York, but
was retaken. He has given the follow
ing account of his escape under ground.
"I should never have thought about
trying to get out, but I heard that my
- woman was sick, and I got it into my
head that shewas going to die. I wanted
to see her; and I asked them to take me
to her house. I was willing to go there in'
handcuffs and shackles, and a child
might have taken me, for I wouldn't
have offered to get away. But they
kept putting me off; and I made up my
mind I would get out and see her or die
in trying. So I went at it.
"I raised up the pump-box and found
there was a hole in the flagging large
•enough to pass through. I laid down on
my face on the floor and backed into the
hole feet first. I found the well plas
-tered near the top, so hanging on with
my hands I let myself down as fat as I
•could, and dropped. I had no idea of
the depth of the well, or where I should
bring up; I only knew that the well was
-dry.. I dropped straight with my face
to the west.' I found bottom at about
twenty feet, landing in mud and water
two feet deep. After recovering from the
shock of the fall, I took off my boots,
tied them .around my neck with my
handkerchief,and clambered up to with
in about ten or twelve feet of the top.
The only 'tool I had was a piece of iron
about six inches long and a half or three
quarters of an inch square. With this
I went to work, and after. some labor
dislodged a stone from the wall; In . a
very short time I was at work in the
dirt. I supposed the foundations of the
jail went down about eight feet, and II
caleulated to begin down low enough to
come up slanting under them. I : had
nothing .to eat or drink; and had nearly
died for lack of air [the only air that
..could reach ;him being the little, that
passed dovin through' the crevice of the
pump box.] I worked steadily all the
time I was in there, and hard work it
Was too. worked lying on myfaee,
with the iron in my hand above me,
scraping the dirt until the weight onmy
head was all that I could bear, when I
backed down and pushed it behind me
into the stone filling around the wall.
When I got near the surface I found it
hard digging. The ground had been
tilled in, it was full of stones, and frozen
hard. The hole at the surface was so
small that I took off 'my clothing to get
through it. '
•':I finally get out into the air about 10
o'clock Wednesday night, having tun
neled about twelve feet, • and worked at
it thirty-two hours of the hardest work I
ever did. I was So weak and exhausted
when I got out thatl had to lie still for
some time. At last I got strength
enough to climb up the wall and drop
into the park. I was then so weak and
dizzy that I could not walk, so I crept
across the park on my hands and knees.
On reaching the street I managed to
walk, but you would have thought I
was drunk if you had seen me; I stag
gered so that the sidewalk wasn't wide
enough for me."

The inquest in the case of Mrs, Gilroy,
who died from exposure and want of proper
treatment on board the ship Neptune, was
contmued yesterday. The drift of the testi
mony was to the effect that those in charge
of the ship had done for her all that they
could do under the circumstances. The
case is still under investigation, and the ex
amination of witnesses will be resumed this
morning at 11 o'clock.
An inquest was yesterday held at the New
York Hospital over the remains of Patrick
Dunlap, whose death, asalleged was caused
by stabs inflicted on Friday last, at
No. 150 Washington street, by Edward
Johnson. On the conclusion of the evi
dence and the rendition of the jury's verdict
to the above effect, a warrant was issued
for the arrest of Johnson, who is yet at
large.

named Carson, who worked itsuccessfallY_ for a num
ber
of years. He died in the town of Charlotte, in
1846, worth over half a million dollars
Two shafts have been sunk on this property, ,one o
them 80 feet, the other 60 feet, on different veins,
averaging from two to three feet in thickness, which
veins atilt continue on down Increasing in width and
richness. These shafts are in gpod order, and.) , e can
be readily taken out at any tintel Other veins havebeen
discovered on this property, and tested and proved to
be very rich in gold. The ores of this mine are known
as the brown ore, and very rich, yielding readily $lO
per bushel. This is believed to be one of the best and
most certain mines in the State, on account of the
abundance and quality of the ore, and ease In which
It is obtained ens reduced. This' property has been
worked by Major Z. A. Grier from 1840 to the breaking
out of the war. This Company have purchased this
property, and intend Is erect machinery and put the
mines in Immediate operation.: The many advantages
of this mine over the mines of Colorado and Nevada
can hardly be estimated. It is more readily reached,
And has abundance of Orel, with cheap labor. It can
be worked all the year, and not. as in the case of Colo
redo and Nevada, be compelled to lie idle for three or
tour months ha consequence of the severity of the
winter.

This mine having been worked for a long time
proved to be a rich paying one. , We do not, therefore
have to incur the rink tnere is in an undeveloped pro•
perry. but can count on -large and Immediate returns
on the investments. Raving an ore that readily yields
fie per bushel, some estimate can be made of the
value of this property. With the present imperfect
system of mining In this locality, and absence of pro
per machinery, ten tons of this ore can be taken out
daily from every shaft opened. Estimating, say is
bushels to the ton, the daily yield will be 31,500 from
one shaft, allowing (MO per day for expenses. The net
product will be Ogg per day; counting 300 working
days to the year, the yearly proceeds will be $360,000,
which yield can be largely increased by extending the
works. This is considered a very low estimate of the
capacity of this mine by experienced miners of that
locality. The Assayer of the United States Unit at
Charlotte, in speaking of this property, says it has few
equals In productiveness in that country, and with
proper management and machinery the above pro
duct can be doubled.
