THE CREAWOF THE IVEW 1100XLIC
Miss Mittord's Letters.
' From the new Life of Mary Russell Mitford,
related in a' selection from her correspondence
with her friends, edited by Rev.. A. G. L'Es
binge, and just published by Bentley, Lon
don, , Ink be seleeted a great number of
pleastuat examples of the art epistolary, as un
derstood in .the beginning of the century.
Without further preface-we give a few sam
ples. This is of the aate of 1814:'
"A few days ago I had a' visit from two la
dies, the wife and sister of an officer of rank
in Lord Wellington's army. Our visitors
seated, and all compliments at an end, we
asked.of course afterthe Colonel; upon which
the lady wife produced a newly-received letter
mid read -- some entertaining - inilitary details.
'hut now,' said she, suddenly stopping, 'here
is a passage we cannot understand.' It ran as ,
follews : Sit is reported at headquarters that,
should the - Allies reach Paris, Soule will play
the part of General Monk.' Noiv what can.
that mean; Mrs. Mitford 'Oh !' interrupted
ber sister, 'lt means of course to run away.
Jiut who is General ..ilirizi;t 7 On telling this
story to my friend, Mr. Monk, by way of anti
dote to family-pride, he told me that a lady to
- whom be once paid his addresses asked him
if General Monk was not his father! 'Luck
ily,'-continued Mr. M., glancing at his own
sweet little wife, 'luckily, .1 had not quite
popped the'question."
In the same year, Mks Mitford writes:—
"Yesterday f went, as you know, to the
play with papa, and on ottr road thither had a
very great pleasure in meeting Lord Welling
ton,just arrived in London, and driving to his
own house in an open carriage and six.
We had an excellent sight of him, so excellent
that I should knoW hint again anywhere;
and it was - quite refreShing, after all thoSe
parading foreigners, emperors,
and so:forth,
forth, to .see an honest English hero, with a
famous Milford nose, looking quite happy,
without any affectation of bowing and seem
ing affable: . He is -a very fine-cduntenanced
man, tanned and weather-beaten, with good
dark eyes, and something of a look of the very
clever actor of the name of Smith, whom they
had at Beading two or three years ago. Very
few of the populace knew him ; but the in
telligence spread like wildfire, and Piccadilly
looked like a hive of bees in swarming -time.",
A day or two after :
"The frenzy was universal; but the ladies
were as, mad as maniacs at the full of the
moon,-the gentlemen only in the first quar
ter. -They . were ladies, alas ! ladies • who
barred up Piccadilly in carriages aml on ftiot—
ladies who hired seats at Escudier's for a
guinea an hour—rladies who ,rammed bank
notes into. the Emperor's hand to get them
consecrated by his touch—and ladies who, to
obtain a kiss of the same 'magnanimous hand,
threw themselveS tante iplorie with nosegays
at his feet. What could they have done more
if it had been the Emperor Napoleon 2"
"Sixty years since" this is how it went at
coupling times :
"Very grand wedding! Plenty of barouches
and bridesmaids, cake and favors, kissing awl
crying! The bride, indeed, had amused her
self with the lea-mentioned recreation for a
whole week, and having, moreover, accumu
lated on her person so much finery in the
shape of lace flounces, spencers, bonnets, veils,
and scarfs that she looked as if by mistake
she had put on two wedding-dresses instead of
one, was by many degrees the greatest fright I
ever saw in my life. Indeed, between crying
and blushing, brides and bridesmaids too do
generally look strange figures ; I, am sure we
did—though, to confess the truth, I really could
not cry, much as I wished to keep all my neigh
bors in countenance, and was forced to hold
my handkerchief to my eyes and sigh in vain
for ce don de dames que Dieu ne ?Yea pas
' I don't really think if were married
myself I should have the !pace to shed a tear.
For the rest all went off extremely well, except
two small accidents, one of which discomposed
me very much. One of my•fellow-bridesmaids
put on her, skirt wrong-side outwards, and
though half a dozen abigails offered to
transplant the lace and bows from one side to
the other, and though I all but Went down on
my knees to beg her not to turn it, turn it she
would, and turn it she did—the obstinate !
The other mischance was our entirely forgetting
to draw any cake through the ring, so that our
fate still rests in abeyance. The bride and
bar second sister set off to Brighton, and
and the youngest remained to do the.
honors of the wedding-dimmer. Of course
we all got tipsy—those who were used to it
comfortably enough, and those who were not,
rather awkwardly—some were • top-heavy and
wanted tying up like overblown 'carnations,
some reeled, some staggered—and one tell, and
catching at 'a harp for a prop, came down With
his supporter,.and a salver of collee which he
knocked out of the servant's hands ; such a
-crash, vocal and instrumental, I never heard ih
my life."
As a pendant to the above, take the following
in A. D. 1818,—" the Doctor" is Valpy :
" Mr. IL is actually married to your
fair, neighbor Miss Phoebe Did I ever
tell you the curious story of their courtship ?
,And will you be very discreet ; if I tell it you
now ? I shall run the risk in both cases. You
must know that 2'lr. It— had song at school
with the good Doctor, and Miss Phoebe; who is
eminently of the sort of young 'woman that is
called .sensible—in contradistinction, perhaps,
to .lever—=was, like other young women, a
'great letter-writer; so she wrote sense and
kindiatli4s. to her brothers, and she wrote
flatterl • ~to the Doctor—and the ,• Doctor
hegan,:to think her a very extraordinary
Fersoni , .'and he told her so—and she
thought , hirn, a very great Man, and she
told MO tipi• 'So at last, the Doctor fairly fell

English verse. Is not this a fine stroke of
professional gallantry.! And he sent up the
melodious produce to the fair inspirer, by his
eldest and favorite son, the identical Biehard
who is now her husband. He did not content
'himself with sending' up coplei of verses, but

a very strong and sincere atta,chinent=4an at:-
taehment which has .weathered many storms,'
and haS at last, perhaps, precipitated them into
a marriage of rdlection rather than of prudence.
I most sincerely wish them happy."
And here is, matter quite as amusing, writ
ten A. D. 1821, from "Three Mile Cross,"
near Strathfieldsaye :
" The Duke of Wellington's sons are at home
for the. Eton holidays, and they come every day
to a little alehouse next door, to take lessons in
French of •„a Jew,' who is lodging there pur
posely to teach then). . 'The poor little lads,
ma'aM,' said my neighbor, the landlord, 'are
kept very strict; they never look up but their'
tutor corrects them ; and, there they sit in my
parlor from eleven o'clock till half-past four and
never have a glass of anything.' Without sym
pathizing very deeply in the last gievance enu
merated by my friend of the tap-room,l am quite
indignant at the poor little boys being cheated
of their holidays. Learning French, "poor
souls, when they ought to be :playing cricket,
or stealing birds' nests, or doing mischief, or
doing nothing! Ileatiug Napoleon was a joke
to this wickedness.. The only thing which even
looks like the holidays is their mode of convey,
ance, which is generally five in a gig; rain or
shine. ~ Once they • came 'on horSeback, and
then they had a hiimp-backed boy on a donkey
galloping after them by way of footman to
carry their books."
Finally; the work abdunds in capital sketches.
of 'character. They are so many that selection
becomes embarrassing. Among the best are
Campbell's and Taff° . urd's. That of the Ser
jeant (to the lixst night of whose lon' the
whole of the Serjeants went) is especially good.
There is something charming in what Lord
Duberly would call his "promiscuous" way of
spelling. He would spell the Same-word three
different ways in the same letter. "Here''
would appear as " heere " and " he:are." ''

Sumner...A queer Case at New Castle—.
Equable Delaware Laws--• Trade Items,
(Correspondence of the Philadelphia ETen'ng Bulletin.]
WiLMINGTON, Dec. I:—Hon. Charles Sum
ner delivered his lecture on Caste on Monday
evening to a very large and highly appreciative
audience, which greeted him with enthusiastic
applause. It was the first time he had ever
addressed a Wilmington audience, and I hear
that he expressed himself as loth surprised and
delighted with his reception. It would be use
less for me to say anything about the lecture,
as I see that he delivers it in Philadelphia this
evening. Cordova, the humorous lecturer, so
well known to your citizens; appears for the
first time before a Wilmington audience to
morrow evening. '
• In the Court at New Castle, yesterday, a
case was tried in which considerable interest
. has been felt. Some monthsago a man nwried
James Dougherty made the acquaintance of
Catharine Rogers, a woman employed as a
house servant at Darby, Pa. She had been.
industrious and frugal, and had saved from her
- earnings several hundred dollars. Dougherty'
paid her devoted attention, won her affections,,
and finally married her. 'As soon as he Could,
get p.ssessidn 0 her hard-earned savings, he
deserted her and came. to_..New.Castle, in this
state, -Where, on the :2;ld of August last, he
was married by Rev. Martin-Fallon; a Catholic
priest, to a girl named Margaret • oug,herty.
The newly-married couple went to Boston, the
deserted wife's earnings defraying the ex-
Tense of the bridal tour • As soon as
his first w rte heard •of this second
marriage she committed; suicide by taking
poison. anil died in terrible agony. A few
weeks ago, Dougherty was arrested in Chester,
and thence sent to New Castle for trial. The
evidence was very conclusive, and the jury
gave a verdict of " guilty" without leaving the
box. He was sentenced to pay a fine of $2,000
and be imprisoned one year, this being the
heaviest sentence the Court could legally impose.
Had this man, instead of breaking two women's
hearts, driving one of them to suicide and
robbing her of the fruit of years of toil, robbed
some man's hen-roost, our just and equitable
code of laws would have sent him to the pillory
mid the whipping-post; then imprisoned him,
and fimallyhave turned him loose with a eon=
vict's jacket on his back, to warn all the world
against him as a thief.
• I referred in my last to the dullness'of busi
ness, but ' a little examination convinces me
that this dullness is mainly confined to trade,
while manufacturing seems quite brlsk. Car
building is apparently very brisk, and it' an
immense business here. lion ship-building,
which is probably our most important industry,
though rather sleepy, is by no means dead, and
I learn that the Harlan & Hollingsworth Com
pany will shortly lay the keel of a larger ship
than they have ever yet built: Machinists,
too, and all other workers in iron, seem to be
quite busy. Wilmington is rapidly becoming
a great "iron city;" and now, just above her
northern border, on the Delaware river, are
being erected immense iron works, which;
it is said, will be the largest 'in America. I
shall tell you more about them when they are
further advanced.
The new Wilmington and llealing
it is expected, will give an impetus to all kinds
of iron manufacture here, as it t will give us di
rect connection with your Pennsylvania coal
mines. Work on it. is proceeding quite rapidly,
and it is exixtetcd that it will be open from .
here to Coatesville by. the 15th of the present
month. A week ago the approaching gangs of
track-layers were but live or six miles apart.
Similar gangs ale working towards, each other
between Coatesville and Birdsboro' but it .ia
not supposed they will meet this winter.
Trains will probably run between here and
Coatesville by Christmas.
There are but few items of local interest at
present to report. This morning a scaffold
gave' way in the new iron building being,
erected by Capone Sc Bro - ., for, a • hardware
store, and six plasterers were precipitated some
twenty-live feet through a hatchway to the
liist goer. All were more or .less injured and
one of them, James L. Speakman, So seriously
that his life is iu dauger. The acCideut WAS
the result of carelessly using a rotten WO of
timber Widtll somebody tbought de."!
It did do a peat deal more than. was - expected
of it. • I)2ax.

Albumen In Argument.
The Messaycr de - l'oulouse :gives an
account of another hostile meeting in France,
the combatants being women, whose mode of
fighting suggests an improvement in duelling.
Annon B. and Jeanneton L. had a difference
respecting a sum of seventy-five centimes
which had been lent by the former to the
latter. Happening to meet on market-day,
strung eXpressiona were used on both sides—
one calling the other a "cheat," and the other
'retorting by the term "miser." Annon, intent
on paying herself, seized the handle of a basket
of eggs which Jeanneton carried ; a struggle
ensued, the eggb began to fly furiously andtlist,
and both combatants were freely bespattered
about the face and neck with yolk and shell.
An elegantly dressed young gentleman in
the crowd made himself somewhat pro
minent by inappropriate mirth ; thiS diverted
the anger of Amon and Jeanneton from each
other, and their concentrated wrath fell upon
the head of him who mocked them. About
two-thirds of the contents of Jeanneton's ham
per had been consumed in .the encounter; the
remaining eggs were expended, by the justly
indignant women on the well-dressed offender,
to the complete destruction of his irreproach
able garMents and his utter confusion.
There can be little doubt that the egg might"
with advantage be substituted for the sword in
French duels. In nine cases out of ten, the
damage done, and the annoyance .inflicted; by
the egg would exceed that which is produced,
by the employinent of Abe deadlier weapon.

Ayer's
Hair Vigor,
For the Renovation of the Hair.
The Great Desideratum of the Age.
A dressing which
is at once agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving the
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color
and the gloss and
freshness of
.youth.
Thin hair is thick
ened, falling hair checked, and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore the
hair where the follicles are destroyed,
or the glands atrophied and decayed.
But such as remain can be saved for
usefulness by this application. Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the' hair
froth turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous and
injurious to the hair, the Vigor caa ,
only benefit but not harm it. If wanteit
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it dem!
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts
longer on the hair, giving it a rich
glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
