George Copway the educated Indian thus des the manner of courtship and marriage r among the Cbippewas; He said thire was, no courtship done by the young people; that was done by the perents, yearis beforehand,,and it often came rather against grain . with the young people. When the day ; came, the _ ceremony was preformed by the chief, consisting ' a lecture to tbe young couple, and a feast, after which they were considered as man and wife. But among the ,tribes - of' the West there were many - - very curious ceremonies connected with courtship and marriage. One way of getting:a wife Was as folloiva:----When a young Indian fell in love with . any of the daughters of the village, be Would go and - sit down within a few yards oilier, kee,ring strict silence all the while; in a few moments, he would get up and go , away; this he repeated six • orSeven times,, nearer to her every time.

The habit Of Reading._ Young men. should always cultivate a habit of reading, for it may be tothern, that only the means of information' but the perennial source of many of_ the. finest and highest enjoyments:of life. They who. make good bookartheir constant-companion will never want good and faithful friends in - - their „prosperous days, or their seasons of riveise.— .There can be no blank in the lives of those per sons, who, froth active love, hold daily fellowship with the wisest and„ best of the race. Vile think we could hardly , be iimpted to exchange eur habit of reading for any other friend it may be our for tune to find,on earth. 4.nd we are sure that any young man who will make this habit his friend, - will ever esteem, it among the wisest steps of his life, and so we counsel the young, from our own experience among all their gettings of this world to get the habit, the love of reading—Old always to have at hand a good book with which to fill up every leisure hour. In this way they may , come at-last to know that the gems,of file,are found in its wasteplaces. - Whereier woman plights her troth under the sky of heaven, at the domestic hearpi,"or in consecrated aisles, the ground is holy, the spirit: of the boar is sacramental. That it is thus felt even by the most trivial, may be observed`at every wedding cererno; • ny... 'Though the mirth may be at first fast and furious before or after the irrevocable formula is spoken', yet at that-point of time, there is a sha dow upon the most laughing lip—a moisture on the firmest eye.' Wedlock, indussolvable, except . .by an act of , God--a sacrament whose solerrinity - reaches to eternity, will always hold Its rank, in •- life as well as in literature, as the most impressive .... fact of human expetience. He is a slight observer who sneers at its prominence in dramatic .writing, 'whether of the stage or the closet, the play or the novel' ::'lt- must always be so. if government, with all its usurpations and ag gressions ;' has a ap propriated history; let the let ' s ambitious. pottiorl oiour literature be.sacred to the affections-=to the family, based on conjugal and parental loveas'that institution is; and less the state which hitherto, in ' The world's annals,has been little . than the said ex . ponent or human ambition. • The snest entertainments ot ail ages are reading, conversation and thought.. If our existence after - middle life is, not enriched by these, it becomes s < meagre and dull indeed—and these will„i!rove sources of pleasure" jusi in proportion to previous intellectual cultuie. How is that mind to have subject matter of pleasurable thought during its _ solitary bouts, which has no knOwledge of the treasures of literature and science, which bas Made -• no extensive acquaintance With the distant and the the pastl And what, is conversation between • those who inow nothing?

AN OLDJIACk.SON DEMOCRAT'. Prersetraort, 14th March, 1842. To Mr. Robert Magill, Pitt toicathip. Dear SirT-Thee undersigned committee having understood that during the last War with Great Brit_ ain you were a citizen of Lancaster county in this State and well acquainted with the Hon.. James Bu chanan, we take the liberty of asking you to state for , the satisfaction of that gedtlemates numerous friends in this part of Pennsylvania, whether Mr. Buchanan's course in regard to the War, merited and received the approbation of the supporters of that important measure of Mr. Madison ' a adminis tration. , The slanders ,which some of our political oppo ponentit have so freely lavished upon our patriotic and eloquent Senator have been so various, and so pertinaciously reiterated that his democratic friends, in order to meet them, de determined to appeal to the testimony of , these who have known tom from his youth to the present day. There is noose in this community on whole statements the public would more implicitly rely than on yours, and we therefore iespectfully request from you an answer to the fore going enquiry. Your friends and fellow citizens, EDWARD D. GAZZAM, ,THOS. HAMILTON, THOMAS PHILLIPS, - JOHN McDF.VITT, JAS. CRAWFORD, CUARLES BARNETT, JOHN IRWIN, ofGraot st. Pitt Township, MTh March, 1892. GENTLEMEN :-113 replying to your letter of yes terday a brief etatement of facts within my knowl edge, will, I presume suffice. The brilliant career of Mr. Buchanan as a state'- man, and the faithful and ardent manner in which, od,,many important occasions he he has advocated the hono r and true interestsof the country, have sat isfied abut those who are blinded by political poi~ ndice that he is a true patriot. But his devotion to his country in the humble sta tion of a private soldier Is not so generally known. As you have naked me, however, whether his course during the late war merited the approbation of the Democratic Administration of that day, I will brier ty state' yhat that course was so far as I had any knowledge of it; and .you ;an judge for yourselves whether it merited approbation or not. When the news readied Leneaster that the British forces had eaptnred Washington and burnt the Capitol, great 414r14 and apprehension prevailed, and it was at that ;gloomy perio d of the war that James Buchanan, then a young man, Molten Q. Rodgers, Edw. 'Cole man,and other gallant spirits of Lancaster issued a circular calling on those in Lancaster who were wil ling to volunteer in their country's service to arm and equip themselves forthwith, and organize a troop 'to join the American forces. In two or three days a troop was.formed under the command. of Cant. Shippen, rifterwards President 'Judge ot the,Crawford county courts, bat the nacos- Shy . for.refilforcing the army was considered so ur gent that, the troop left Lancaster before the mem bers generally could equip themselves. • In Baltimore, however, to which they were immo. diaiely marched, they procured a uniform dress and other military equipments, at their own expense and joined 'the, troops under the ;command •of Major I, was a member of the Lancaster trooP: Re wan Mr; Buchanan;' who volunteered and serredsas a Private..

By letteis frOm our :Belfast, Dubtin, Limerick, and Cork correspondents, dated yesterday, we find that the. great," topic of diatuision atnong,all clan. ass : of the Irish people is the "rate in aid" proposal ot.Lord.Jobn Russell. From every part of Ulster tinll Waster, and even in districts of 14Iunstei, too, have recoonatrances, loud.and indignant, been sent forth against the proposition. Meetings are being held dally,in the northern counties to.petition Par. liament against the scheme. - The language used thereat is not only bold, - burvery daring—a less violent tone in repeal speeches hss subjected cer tain castors to a long imprisonment Under the habeas corpus suspension act. The proposal of Sir Robert Peel for the remedy of Irish grievances has taken the landed interest by storm, but it is nor o popular as many at first .suspected it should be. Efforts to aid the Popein his misfortune, are now general throughout the country, and although the masses are said to be starving, his holiness is like ly to receive alarge sum from the "Isle of Saints." Mr Blltke, the notorious Juror in the case of Mr. Duffy, has addressed a 'sound letter to Lord Brougham, on the subject of his lordship's re marks in the House of Lords relative to his (Burke'si) i conduct as a juror. The latter is placed in a most unevdiable position, and must, long ere this, rise the furious onslaught he made on Shel bourne Burke. Mr. Govan Duffy refuses to have.any public sub scription made for his defence against the prose. cations of the law officers of the crown. FRANCE. Paws, Friday, March 9th 180.

From Panama and Chagrea: The New York Herald has the following from the Pacific , The steamship Oregon. one of the steamers be. long to the' Pacific Nail Steamship Company," arrived here at 9 o'clock last evening. Her ern rival gladdened the hearts of all those who have tickets for her. Her running time from New York to Panama was only fitty-fpfe days and eight hour,. —a very extraordinary passage. She halt seven passengers but will fill up here very fast ; as I presume there are at least twelve hundred persons between Chagres and Panama, destined for Cali- Conde. Of this number,only about three hundred have tickets for the steamer Oregon. A letter from Chagres, Feb. 29. says: There are about 150 mules between Gorgona and Panama ; the natives assist in carrying the baggage over. One vessel at this port has been deserted by her crew, and the captain cannot obtain any hands.—, There are five brigs now in here. The mail steamer Clyde is still at anchor off the harbor. She has taken, it is supposed, on' board this day, about two millions of gold. A. letter dated Valparaiso, Febritary 6, and wee brought to Panama by the Oregon. The extract is as follows : " Two vessels arrived here yesterday from Cali fornia, one with $lOO,OOO in gold ; the other, al though supposed to have . a large quantity on board, keeps the matter a secret. An American sloop of war is shortly expected, with $400,000 on board ; and all the speculators who left. here six months I ago, have realized on their cargoes at immense I profits. An American propeller- arrived yester day." A letter in the Baltimore Patriot, from Panama There are several good hotels and restarauts, and good board can be bad at from $l to $2 per day. There are now in all nearly one thousand passengers on the Isthmus, the great bulk of whom are still at Chegres and Gorgona, awaiting means of transit to San Francisco. It is expected that the Oregon will take off nearly 300, leaving 700 waning for chance vessels.' Runts and Revolution. The powerful despotism of Russia hits at last moved against the revolutions of Europe ; and we may -now loolefor the overthrow of one or the other cif the antagonist systems. The Hungarians are displaying unwonted vigor and endurance in their contest with Austrian Germany, and the hopes 'of many begin to revive that they may be able to withstand the forces of the combined monarchists. Russia may decide`the quarrel by , pouring in her fierce legions imleeti indeed the revolted States of Italy, the disaffected Poles, and other insurrection ists, should.onite suddenly and vigorously. France remains ominously quiet; and the suspicion of the peculiar reations between Louis Napoleon and the Russian Czar begins to be strength.ened.

The inhabitants, (nearly L ail black) are clein in their dress, unassuming in manners, innocent; and inoffensive. , We made the passage from Baltimore to Chagres, in 13 days or from Cape Henry where we cleared in 11 days. When we arrived at Chagres the steamer One of N. Y., was there, which towed our vessel in to the harbor ; we remained in thebarbors, sleeping at night on the deck of our schooner, The Captain of the Oris engaged to take all the passengers with a great deal of provisions to Gor es roe $lO, each plovisions included, but - after all charged forty dollars extra for the provisions. The distance from Chagres to Gorgona by the riv er is about 75 miles, of that the steamboat carried us 25 of the 50. We were taken in canoes pulled up by the native, to Gorgona, making the trip in about 30 hours, at this, (the dry season,) The wa. ter of the river is clear and good to drink as it comes from the mountains. The current of the river is very strong, and the bed of it crooked. The scenery is changing and beautiful: It is not such a task to get up this river as I bad tupposed, although there are some difficulties in getting along.- , As the native will do as they please and those Which can. not speak Spanish cannot make them understand, and very often they do pot wish to understand. When we arrived at Gorgona it was late in the evening we pitched our teats and had a good night's rest. In the morning a committee was dispatehed to this place te see if a ship could be got to take us to San Francispe. Oar committee were very fortu nate, as a British barque John Ration wit up, and the agent had about one-half of the berths in the cabin steerage', sold—those remaining were bought entire for oar 'company at two dollars.; ethic', one dEllar. Steerage, there were more than needed, which were sold at SO per cent advance, which will reduce the fare of our company 16 or 20 dollars. Some of the company remained at Corgoira for upwards of a week, as they could live cheaper there on the; provisions than in this place. We stayed in Gorgona four nights and three days.
