and advancing to Clinton, exclaimed—'behold !'
Removing the veil to which were fastened
several light brown earls, she disclosed to the
horror-stricken Clinton, a round. flat visage, a
white, woolly head, and pink eyes that glowed
like fire. The thick lip, and flattened nose
were unmistakeable marks , that the mysterious
stranger was au albino! Clinton waited not fora
second glance, but seising Ilia hat in desperation
rushed from the house.
From that night there was a very perceptible
change. He no longer scrawled sixth-race rhymes,
nor gazed at the moon on a cool night at the risk
of a cold in his head; bat resolutely tamed up
his dickey, sad considered a fine, rosy girl, who
ate solfieient ehieken wings to sustain life, a sen
sible and even interesting object In proems of
time Clinton proposed to his charming cousin,
and was accepted. After they bad bcemmarried
nearly a year, Sedgewick one day perceived the
identical ring that bad become the prey of the
ci-devant Miss Castlereagh glistening on his wife's
finger. 'Where did you get that? be hastily
exclaimed With a merry laugh, Annie then
told him he had been the dupe of a very ingeni
ous plot. She had noticed with regret a morbid
romance gaining possession of him, and had laid
a plain to cure him. She therefore enlisted
another of his cousins in the scheme. There
was at that time an albino in the city on exhibi
tion, and by promising her a considerable reward,
she had been to play the following part.
At the hour of the day when Sedgewick took
his accustomed lunch, the girl had gone into
H—s, and by the singularity already described,
attracted his attention. He had suddenly lost
night of her, and the second time be saw her, as
be supposed, his eonain Julia had met him in the
music store in a similar dress, sad disguises's her
vo i ce , earned on the conversation in the street.
The plotters bai previously secured the appro
bation and onpeurrenee of Mr. Clinton, Sr , and
the appointed place of meeting was at the house
of one of his tenants, where the girls bad pre
pared an apartment for him and played the part
of hostess, until the point where it became ne
cessary to unveil. She then left the room, and
the substitute entered; the sight of bcr face bad
produced the expected effect of causing Clinton
to take a hasty departure The two girls and
their uncle rode home, and Annie had just seated
herself in the drawing room, when Sedgewick
came.
Nov do not be angry,' said his wife as she
laughingly ooneluded; 'remmeber you confess you
have been happier since you gave up those
romantic ideas you once entertained; and for all
this yon have to thank Julia and myself.'
Clinton could but respond to the - aentiment,
and all °barrio was dissipated in a hearty laugh
at his former folly.

A party of young lathes and gentlemen, says
the Albany Knickerbocker, went out riding one
evening last week, sod stopped at a tavern a
short distance from the city, where they had
supper After which, they amused themselves
by aegis, up a marriage A squire, who was
at the place at the time, we/tailed on and married
a couple. Everything appeared to goof as merry
as the occasion required The bride appeared to
be delighted with her new title, and the groom
was, evidently, never better pleased with himself
in the world The party returned to the city
towards morning, and it was, with greet reluc
tance the groom parted with his fair bride She
Consoled the poor fellow, by telling him it would
astonish bet. folks, to have them wake up in the
morning and find him in the house, and that he
hd* better wait till the next evening. With
great reluctance he submitted.
The next evening, however, found him at her
dwelling, but the bride, iastea d of being there to
receive her lord and meter, had taken shelter in
her bedroom, and forbade his entrance. She, it
appears, had taken a sober second thought and
came to the eottelasion that she would rather en
joy single-blessedness for a while longer. The
poor groom, dejected and broken-hearted of sours*,
had to retire from the field. Sundry messages
have passed between the parties sines then, but
how it is to terminate we are unable to say.—
That they are fairly and legitimately married is
plain, from all we eau kern. The affair has
caused considerable excitement in certain circles
in town. The lady is yonag. beautiful and set
oompliebed. The geadessalris quite good look
ing, and we have no donbt-wsuld make a good
husband. The only remedy she has is to apply
to the Legislature, but we hope she will think
better and acknowledge the gentleman, who
pledged himself to be her protector through life,
to be her liege lord: That's the way to do it.

BOSTON , August 9, 1856
Gentlemen—Up= my return last' evening,
from is abort absence from the city, I found your
letter of the 30th ult., inviting me to take part
in the firomsedings of the whigs of Maine, assets-
Med is mass meeting.
I appresiste most highly the honor and kind
ness of this invitation, and should had true
pleasure i■ oeceptiog it. The whigs of Maine
compose at all times so important a division of
the greet national party, which under that name,
with or without official power, as a respcnsible
administration or as only an 'organised opinion,
has done El much for our country—our whole
country---sad your responsibilities at this mo
ment are so vast and peculiar, that I acknowl
edge an anxiety to see —not wait to hear—with
what noble bearing you meet the demands of the
time. If the tried legions, to whom it is com•
milted to guard the frontier of the Union, falter
now, who, anywhere, can be trusted ?
My engagements, however, and the necessity
or expediency of abstaining from all speech re
quiring much effort, will prevent my being with
you. And yet, invited to share in your cows
eels and grateful for such distinction, I cannot
wholly destine to declare my own opinions on
one of the duties of be whigs in what you well
describe as "the present crisis in the political
'affairs of the eountry. l) - I cannot now, and need
not, panne to deliberate or defend them What
I think, and what I have decided to do, permit
me in the briefest and - plainest expression to
tell you.
The first duty, then, of whips, not mere y as
patriots and citizens—loving, with a large - and
equal love, our whole native land—but as whigs,
and because we are whips, is to unite with some
organization of our countrymen to defeat and
dissolve the new geographical party, calling
itself republican. This is our first duty It
would exactly express my opinion to say, that at
this moment it is our only duty Certainly, at
least, it comprehendscr suspends all others ; and
ill' my judsiment the question for each and every
one of us as, not whether this candidate or that
candidate would be our first choice ; not whether
there is some good talk in the best platform ;

those who fear that a geographical party does
