JeMmeont Wedding.
The following pleasing picture is from the
early .days of Jefferson, Is the New York
soda," (Jefferson'a fret love) had been
married many years, and ber old admirer
was approachaug thirty, when he met with a
young lady of twenty-two, who produced a
strong impression upon him. She was a lit-
Vs above the medians height, slender but
elegantly formed. A fair complexion, with a
delicate tint of the rose, large hazel eyes, fall
of life and feeling, and luxuriant hair ads
rich soft suborn, termed a eombination of at
traction which were eminently calculated to
move the heart of a bachelor. Ia addition to
all this, the lady was admirably graceful ; she
rode, danced, and moved with elegant ease,
and sang and played on the harpiseliord very
tweedy. And stall to these accomplishments
the possession of excellent good sense, very
considerable cultivation, a warm, loving
heart, and last, thong), not the least, notable
talents for house-keeping, and it will not be
difficult to understand how the youthful Mr.
Jefferson came to visit very frequently at the
lady's residence, in the county of Charles
City. It was called "The Forest," and the
name of the lady was Mrs. Martha Skelton.—
She was a daughter of Juhn %vies!, an emi
nent lawyer, and had married in her seven
teenth year, Mr. Bathurst Skelton, who dy
ing in lifilt, left his young wife a widow at
nineteen. As the three years of mourning
begun to expire the beautiful young lady
found herself be4eged at "The Forest" by
numerous visitors. Of these three were favor
ites with the fair Mrs. Skelton, of whom Mr.
Thomas Jefferson was one. The tradition
runs that the pretensions of the rivals were
decided, either by the musical accomplish
ments of the young counsellor, or by the
fears of his opponents. The tale is different
ly related. One yerison is, that the two un
fortnnste gentlemen encountered each other
on Mrs. Skelton's door step, but hearing Mr.
Jefferson's violin and voice accompanying the
lady in s pathetic song, gave up the contest
thenceforth and retired without entering,
convinced that the affair was beyond their
control.
The other story is, that all three met at the
door, and agreed that they would take their
turns. Mr. Jefferson entered first, and the
:ones of the lady in singing with her com
panion deprived the listeners of all hope.—
HoweTer this may be. it is certain that the
beautiful widow consented to become Mrs.
Jefferson, and on the first dny of January,
177.1, there wits a greet festival at "The For
est." Friends and kindred assembled from
far and near—there was frolicking and dunn
ing after the abundant old fashion—and we
Ind from the bridegroom's note book that the
servants and fiddlers received fees from kin
especial pocket. It snowed without. bat
withia all was mirth and enjoment, in file
fight and warmth of the run log trek roar
nog in boner of the occasion. Sam after the
perks mane of the ceremony, the bridegroom
and his bride set out !or "Mowneello," where
Mr. Jefferson had ecionseaced loniding in
1'39, just before the destruction by In of kis
patrimonial house of "%anal." ?be Sour

triaged with laughter, merriment and mug.
The vigil was a mirthful incident rather thous
a trial of their equanimity. They were plena
—and they had just been married. When
hands are clasped, and hearts beat close to
gether, there is very little gloom in darkness,
sad whaler nights are not cold. This little
moral sentiment will not, I hope, be criticised
as too romantic for the "dignity of history."
It doubtless explains how a young lady and
curytlemaa, both used to every comfort and
, found the gloomy little pavilion in
the midst of three feet of snow, neither dark
nes cold, on that January night lung ago.
A Young WU* Dies Broken Hearted.
In the obituary department of the "Jour
nal," published at Palmer, Mass., we And the
fon/meg announcement:
NDied.—Mary, aged 20, wife of De Witt
Clinton Packard ' of Providence, It. I."
In the editoria l column there is s sad and
touching story, relating to the announcement
which we annex below. It is a lesson from
the tomb, to the young and thoughtless, and
told so eloquently, that it cannot fail to make
an impression for good on readers of every
age. It says:
"Ia another column we record the death of
a young lade who died of a broken heart,,—
We do not like to trespass upon the sacred
ness of domestic grief, to unfold the details of
her sad story ; but when the privacy of afflic
tion becomes public feeling, it Is not improper
(or the Press to place the events on record.—
It Is net neoestaary to repeat names or relate
minute partieulirs. It is enough that we
Argw the outlines of a picture for the reader
=
at with appropriate colors. Many
ago, in the neighboring town of
IfielsAertowa t a young man sought and receiv
ed the promise of the band of a young lady,
when home was in the lap of luxury, whose
mufti and personal attractions made all
=lt around her. Like too many eonfid
e abet sex, she trusted man s unhal
lowed promise, and yielded all to him. From
that boar he eastrenged himself from her, and
morel to a distant State. When it became
evident that he had exposed himself to the
=lty of the law, at the request of her
be returned to her to fulfill the vows
be had long before made. They were mar
ried la one of those hasty, unceremonious
ways, which occupy but Hula time or attedo
ties. Lute in the evening they returned to
her lather's house, where he left her in the
street, promising to return in a short time.—
Bet that promise was never fulfiled. She
wrote to him. and received encouragement
that he would soon *midi a home for her,
bet delay followed delay, till her letters and
entreaties were unheeded and unanswered.—
At length a pledge of woman'i m iove for her
husband came into the world Tropen new
fountains of affection to the young wife.—
Stil/ the husband and father came not.
'The mother recovered from tioninentent ;
but after repeated letters to her husband
found no answer, the idea that she wakie
sorted by him forced itself upon her,
gave way to despondency and despair. The
child, partaking of its mother's grief, awn
died. There was nothing that she could lire
for now, and though sneering front no dis
ease, she sank noon a dying bed, Than the
swift wing of lightning bore to the distant
husband the intelligence that she was dying.
Ile still hesitated, but at length set out to
meet his expiring wife. Conscious that her
hours v ere few, she only wished to live long
enough to see her husband; he was still all to
her. Her last words to her friends were:
' Tell him that I still love hinr—that I died
fur him.' When evening shadowed the earth
the husband came. As he approached the
bedside ofhis injured wife, he was recognised,
end the words • Ile's come.' burst from her
lips. Already had the wing of the death an
gel cast its shadow over that dwelling, and
she was entering the dimness of the dark
valley. Next morning, in that room, lay the
corpse of a beautiful young wife, on which
the husband had looked fur the last time, and
departed.
" Last Sabbath afternoon, the funeral of
the young wife took place under her father's
roof. Ifor neighbors and friends, to the num
ber of five hundred, were present; but the
husband who had left her to die fur him was
not there. A deeply affecting address was
made by her former pastor, and just as the
sun was sinking behind the western bills,
four young ladies of her acquaintance, clad
in garments of white, bore her to a grave in
the garden, where the green turf was laid
gently over her. Such is the story of one
who died broken hearted. The grave is a
quiet place for the injured wife. but where in
all the world can there be peace for hint who
would thus bring sorrow and death upon her?
The story has its moral, but we will leave the
reader to apply it ; it is full of warning, and
we leave the young to hoed it."

TWO DOLL ARS' A-T SA It
Money Wanted I
Some base age we noticed en address issu
ed by the Mick Republican National Com
mittee, earnestly milling for money to be used
in the printing and distribution of election
eering documents. The call must have been
a successful one, as a short time since we re
ceived two tracts, under the fresh of Jottx
Corot's, a Republican member of Congress
from Western Pennsylvania—the one entitled
"Leads for Me Landkes," and the other
" How we are Governed." Both-are "catch
TOWS, " as their titles clearly indicate. With
such stair, under the fraudulent frank of Re
publican members of Congress—unless the
recent decision of the Postmaster General
refusing to send documents without they have
on them the genuine frank of the member—
the mails will no doubt be lumbered from
now until the Presidential election. of 18130,
and if the Puet Office Department don't pay
expenses the Democracy wiU get all the
blame.
The franking privilege hasiong been enough
abused by members of Congress themselves,
and Republican members should not employ
every Turn, Dick and 'lorry to do the same
thing. 1U the documents not properly
franked were tabooed by the Postmaster Gen
eral, and every gold man of every party will
give him credit for his decision. It is proper
that the Opposition should have the same
facilities through the mails as the Democrats,
for the transmission of their heavy election
eering literature, but neither party should be
allowed to abuse the privilege as the Republi
cans, with John Cuvude and others at their
head, have been doing.
But to return from this digression.--
The Republican leaders are beginning to
dun the " friends of freedom " fur money.—
•' Money," " money," say they, " make* the
mare go." here is the form of the demand
made by the Itepublicaa Natioaal Com
mittee:
"To give practical effect to these sugges
tions an adequate amount of money will be
required, for the legal an! faithful o:pencil
tare which the undersigned will hold them
selves nisporuii We."
" Money," for what? To promote tho
cause of freedom by keeping free States out
of the Union, as was attempted in the cases of
Oregon and Minnesota ? " Money " to ena
ble them to "resist the laws or the land,"
and defeat the election ofjudges " who recog
nize the laws," as Mr. Giddings and Judge
Spaulding of Ohio reminunend? "Money "
to subsidise the prose, and buy rotes 1 What
is the necessity fur "money ?" llaa the
Kansas fund become exhausted? What has
become of the hundreds of thousands of dol
lars itched from tbq hands of honest but un
suspeeting industry by the freedom shriekers
of 'si and '56? is the same cheat to be re
peated in '6O? We apprehend the Republican
masses will demand that these demagogues
reader se account of their stewardship before
they trust them with further means.
This Republiesta circular is an advertise
ment that a horde of idlers, psalm singers,
sharpers and cheats are soon to be commis
sioned by the Republican National Commit
tee 'to ransack the land upon an errand of
money begging. We citation oar Republican
friends " to beware of these wolves in sheep's
elothing."—lame. bad.
Practice vs. Preaching.
The Montrose Democrat gives the name of a
Black Republican Justice orate Peace of that
County who has been guilty of whipping a
negro women • nearly to death. This Justice
is an inveterate negro-worshipper, and is la
ways overflowing with indignation at the
Slave•holders for thair cruelty to the Weeks.
This exyyste of his ladling propensity toward
defenseless black servants, is not very consis
tent with his political profession. He preach
es kindness and practices cruelty. This is
characteristic of many more of the same party.
We could name a prominent Black Republican
in this County who has been guilty of whip.

A -Raid Axt , Old Maga.
. The Meek republieins have it last taken
open ground against the thgitlenelare law,
sad. es a party, degnanal 41tha its repeal or
its nallikation. This ground was taken in
the Ohio ?Asti essrentien last week, where
smug tidier Wags, ‘ 4 theylessand the repeal
Of the fugitive slave ea of 1850,: as It is sub
versive of Beth the rights of the States. and
the liberties of the peoplo, sod as eoatrary to
the plainest duties of hamsnita andjustice,
and abhorrent to die moral sense of the civili
sed world." The black-republican party is
composed largely of those who formerly acted
with the Whig party, and we must acknow
ledge to a curiosity to know bow this new
lest of faith will be received by such. W ill
they acquiesce in it, or will they rebel? As
whip they acquiesced in this very law ; it
was endorsed in their platforms, and support
ed by their orators and Ali air press. Are these
very men now to stultify themselves and :weir
action of former years by giving even a tacit
acqui often.). in this concession to the rampant
abolitionism of the party with which they era
now acting? It is well knows that the &Doi
itionists of the Western Reserve demanded this
action from the State eouvention, and it dare
not be refused. It was these very abolition
' lets who in 18-14 defeated Itenry Clay, the
great leader of the whigs, and now the whigs
of to-day arc tusked to give over almost the
lost resonant of their conservatism to please
them. Will it be done?
NO. 52.
The whole black-republican party of Ohio,
whip and all, we now made to demand the
repeal of this law. Let us see what was tb,2
action of the whig party in former days. In
their national platform to 1531.' was the follow
ing resolution :
"That the series of acts of the Thirty-first
Congress—Tilt ACT KNOWN Ati Vat
. 71;4111%7:
SLAVIC LAW DicLunro----are received and ac
quiesced in by the whig party of the United
States as a settlement, to pruiciple anti sub
'twice, of the dangerous and exciting ques
tions which they embrace; and, so far as they
are concerned, we will asaiatstin thorn, and
insixt upom their enforcement, until titut , and
experience shall demonstrate pp necessity of
further legislati on to guard against the *van . ' on
of the laws on the one hand, and the abuse of
their powers on the other, not impairing their
present efficiency; and wo deprecate all turtlior
agitation of the questions thus settled as dan
gerous to our peace, and will discountenance
all efforts to continue or renew such agitation,
whenever, wherever or however the attempt mu y
be matte; and will maintain title system as
essential to the nationality of the witig party
and the integrity of the Union."
The law was passed under a whig Adminis
tration, signed by s whig President, and ad
vocated, in Congress and out, by Henry Clay
and Daniel Webster—both good wing authot
ity in their day. It was voted fur by as many
whip as Democrats, among the former of
whom were such man ns John M. Berrien,
John Bell, George E. Badger, White P. Man
gum, John A. Pearce, Humphrey Marshall,
Edward Stanley, the late Black-Republican
candidate for governor in Caliturnta, and uy
Wm. 11. .Bissell, now governor of
Daniel Webster touched the very pit!i of the
thing is a speech which lie made in the Sen
ate in the summer of 1860, when the bill was
under discussion " The principle of the
restitution of runaway slaves," said he, " in
not objectionable, unless Me Conatiltaion ii
ottjeetionable. If Lilo Constitution is right in
that respect the princoplu is right, and the
law providing for currying it into effect is
right." And again at Bullish> the next year
he used the following language:
" 1 was in Congress when the law was pro
posed. I was fora proper law. 1 Lad indeed
proposed a different law. I was of opinion
that a summary trial by jury might be had,
which would satisfy the prejudices of the
people ; but I left the Senate, and went to
another station, before the law was passed.—
The law of 1830 was passed. Now I under
take as a lawyer, and on my professional
character to say to you, and to all, that, the
law of 1850 is decidedly tuoradavorable lathe
fugitive than lien. Washington's law of 1703;
and I tell you why : In the first place, the
present law planet the power in mach higher
hands—of i od cpendent judges of the supreme,
circuit courts and district courts, and own
miasioners who we appointed to office for
their law learning. Et ery fugitive is brought
before a tribunal of high character, of emi
nent ability, of respecttable station.
" Do you find among all those persons who
oppose this fugitive slave law any admission
whatever that any law ought to be passed to
carry into effect die solemn stipulations oftho
Constitution 1 Tell me any such case! Toll
me if any resolution was passed by the con
vention at Syracuse favoring the carrying out
of the Constitution? Not one! The fain IN,
gentlemen, they oppose the whole—not a
man of them admits that there oaght to be
any law on the subject. They deny altogeth
er that the provisions of the Constitution
ought to be carried into effect. • Well, what
do they say f Look at the proceedingeof the
anti-slavery conventions in Ohio, ilausashu
setts, and at Syracuse, in the &ate of New
York. What do they say t That, am belp
them God, no colored man shall be seat hack
to his master in Virginia. Don't they say
that? And for the fulfilment of that, they
pledge their lives, fortunes, and their snored
honor. [laughter.] Their sacred boner I—
( Laughter.] They pledged their sacred hon
or to violate the laws of their colsaUy ; they
pledged their sacred honor to resist thaw ex
ecution ; they pledged their sacred bettor to
meanie treason *guinea the laws of their
soantey ! God bless them and help them who
pledged their sacred honor in such a cause !"
Such was the action and such were 'Mb
seutimases of the whig party seven. eight and
Moe years ago. This action and these senti
meats were universally received by all the
whip of those days. Since that time the
whip party has been dissolved, and most
of these who acted with it bare suited them
selves with the Black-ftepoblieita party here
at the North, which is miller the itifiammaf
