Commadore Yanderbllt. Ills Weddlrg. Loniioa (Canada) Free Press, A.. S3. The arrival at London of Commodore Vandcrbilt, the celebrated Now York railway magnate, and party, on Friday morning, was the occasion of nuita a flutter of conjecture among3t the quid nunrs and gossips of the t oresfc City, every movement naturally attracted observation, and excited the most wide and extravagant surmises. Every conceivable purpose, from that of buying up the Great Western, body and breeches, to taking a dip in the modern pool of Bethesd.i, the sulphur baths here, was disnusied with rjainful gravity. What did he come hsre for, and what did he want? Had it any thine to do with Sir Francis Ilincks -UouSt ful! Was it in any way. connected with the orp&t corn nuestion, or the inspection of the London volunteers? JNot probuble; and, maeea, every otn- ' er conjecture seemea as iauit, especially that of a local contemporary, in regard to his pursuit of the watercure. The Commodore preserved the most vexatious reticence, his name did not appear on the hotel register,, and he kept in religious seclusion in his rooms, as if under strict medical iniunction to avoid pernicious drafts and the still more afflicting affects of vulgar curiosity. Uut our little world went to sleep, fatigued by the heat of the weather, and lortfetfai that so great a per-onage as an $30,OUO,000 capitalist, with nis stocks ana steam crs, railroads and river places, had even paid us a visit, and still more oblivious ol its purpose. Early on Saturday morning, how ever the great question was answered And the answer was that the Com modore had merely taken a temporary refuse ,u the respectability and quietude of the most flourishing city of the Dominion, to consummate a mirriage with a young, beautiful and estimable lady, andlthus escape all the glare and heat, the fuss and feathers, the lace, vanity and oppressive stare of the New York fashioaablo world. And so it came about that, at siven o'clock on Saturday morning, in a n.m.ta i-novI nf ftp f h o fPnrii msinli ITid I V a IU Ul 1 .--v -m. u w . .&wii.. Commodore Vanderbilt was married to Miss Crawford, daughter of tho lata Mr, E. Crawford, cotton broker, cfMobua Ala., the Lev. W. .JJraggs, AVesleyan minister, 01 this city, , oih ciating at the ceremony. The gallant bridegroom, whose summers are seventy-six, was dressed in plain black, wearing in run shirt uia mond studs of inteiisa brilliancy and great value. He is a noble looking gentleman, erect in hgure, attractive in movement, intelligent in expression, and almost courtly in bearing. As may do supposed from the fact of his years, his hair and whiskers are white, but ho is' so well preserved, even amid all the cares and responsibilities of his position, that he looks to be not mora than Gl or C2 years old. His brido is comparatively young, being only 30 years of age. She is of msdium hight and symmetrical figure, wearing always a singularly happy ex pression of face, which is one of gentle beauty. She was dress-jd in a simple traveling costume, and wore a blue veil on her bonnet, which was not lowered. Tho Commodore and his bride are second cousins. Among the witnesses to the cermony were the mother of the bride, Mrs. CnwforJ, Jr., her brother, and his wile; Gen. Braxton Bragg and Judge Bragg; Mr. J. Tillinghurst, manager of the New York Central, of Bulfa'o, and Mr. Agustus Schell, the well known lawyer of New Yrook. After the ceremony had been concluded, the happy couple received the congratulations of the American families and others staying at the hotel, which the Commodouc acknoledged mcst cordially, he looking proud, she radicnt, and both happy. The adicux over, and the morning express east being ready to start, the party repaired to the U. W. 11. Station and entered the Commodore's special car.bound directly to New York city. As the train moved off a scries of twenty-one deafeding signals were gived in honor of their departure. "IheErle" Aoroab.; The New York correspondent of the London Railway News thus discourses of the Erie in a recent letter upon " Railway Affairs in America :" " To return to the Erie, as of most interest to English- readers. If the expenditure on tho road has been enormous, there is at least something to show lor it, even without stirring out of New York. The magnificent boats which have almost monopolized the trade between New York and Boston serve as valuable feeders to the Erie system; and a an instance of the managment of Messrs. Fik and Gould, I may mention that a traffic ha? been created by this route which was never before dreamt of. The forepart of the boats, 1 find, are fitted with stalls, and between forty and fifty horses are daily brought from a point on the Atlantic and Great Western Ilailway a breeding station of which I have forgotten the name and shipped here for the New England States. The new Erie offices, now nearly completed, will be one of the eights of New York. These offices form part of the Grand Opera House, the purchase of which for $800,000 of Erie funds has been eo much commented upon. I went over them the other day, but I despair of giving your readers auy proper idea of their splcn dor. Almost from roof to basement the fittiigs are of polished walnut, picked out with gold, and the ceillings anc' .walls are painted in superb designs. Everything, to the very hinges and handles of the doors, shows exquisite taste, and the arrangement of the d'flerent departments is convenient and luxurious in tha extreme. A fircprcofcoairartment with safj-i extends the whole height of the building. In the basement is n large printing ofiic j; and telegraph wires are laid to every department and warehouse of the line. Nor are creature comforts unprovided for; there is a well fitted kitcheo, with Jilts to the different floors. A communication is made with an adjoining house, which can bo used as a residence; and a corridor leads into the Opera House. Altogether, since virtue is it- own reward, the Etie directors may -hope, with these pleasant accessories, to be pretty comfortable in their new quarters. The expenditure ou the whole, however may not be unwarrantable, as by leasing the theatre the Company may have their office rent free. The Twenty-third' Street tramway, just sanctioned by the Legislature, runs past the building, leading to the new Ferry of the Erie Company a greit public convcni3neo, by the way and at its other end on the East liivor a landing stage will be made for the tarnsfer of Erie passengers to the Boston boats. Such conveniences as those which are being afforded by the Erie throughout their system are ad ding considerably to their passenger frame; and uader the new laojities

Mark Twain's Editorial Salutatory. "Mark Twain" has become one of the proprietors cf the Buffalo Express, and publishes his "salutatory" in the issue of that paper of Saturday last We quote : .

I only Wish to assure parfirs hvin? a friendlv interest in the ... .0 . :-- , , T i prosperity OI the journal, that 1 ami not going to hurt tho paper aeliberate - 1 ii f 5 l- t ly ana lnieniiouaiiyatany time. sia not gom;; 10 mirouuce any siaruiDg reforms, or m any way attempt to make trouble. 1 am simply gome to do my plain, unpretendrngduty, when I can not get out of it; 1 shall work duljgently and honestly and faithfully at all times and upon all occasions. when privation and want shall com pel ma to do it; in writing 1 shall always confine myself strictly to the truth, except when it is attended with inconvenience; 1 shall witheringly re buke all forms of crime and rniscon duct, except when committed by the party inhabiting my own vest; I shall not maue use ot flang or vulgarity up on any occasion or under any circum stances and never use profanity ex ceptin discussing house rent and taxes. Indeed, upon second thought, I will not even use it men, ior it is un christian, inelegant and degrading though to speak truly 1 do not see how house rent and taxes are going to bo discussed worth a cent without it I shall not often meddle with politics, because we have a political editor who is already cxcelnt and only :.... : i rf t i v.aij iu uiuui i.c. not write any poetry. Unless I Conceive a SDitc acainst the Subscriber. bucli is my platform. I do not see :Z. i.jr t .1 i . any earthly use in it: but custom is law. and custom must be obeyed, no mat ter how much violence it may do to one's feeline3. And this custom which I am slavishly, following now, is surely one of the least necessary that ever came into vogue, lu private life a man docs not go and trumpet his crime belore he commits it. but your new editor is such an important per s Quaere that he leels called npon to write a "salutatory" at once, and he puts into it all that ho knows, and all that he don't know, and some things he thinks he knows but isn t certain of. And he parades his list of won ders which he is ffoinje to perform: of relorms which he is eoine to intro duce, and public evils which he is going to exterminate; ana public blessiDgs which he is going to create: ana public nuisances which he is goine to abate. He spreads this all ou1; with oppressive solemnity over a column and a halt oi large print, and teels that the country is saved. His satisfaction over it is something enor mous, lie then settles down to his miracle and inllicts profound plati tudes and impenetrable Wisdom upon a helpless public as Ions; as they can stand it. and then they send him off Consul to fome savaire island m the Pacific in tho vacue hope that the cannibals will like him well enough to cat him. And with an inhumanity which is but a fitting climax to his career of persecution, instead of pack ing his truuk at once, he lingers to inflict upon his benefactors a ' valodictory." If there is anything more uncalled for than a "salutatory," it is n . t n alii one ot t hoiio teariui, blubbering, long winded "valedirjtories" wherein a man who has been annoying the public for ten years can not take eavc of them without sitting down to cry a columu and u half. iStill, it is the custom to write valedictories. and custom should bo respected. In my secret heart I admire my prede ceisar for declining to print a valedic tory, though in public 1 say and shall continue to say sternly, it is custom. and he ought to have printed one. People never read them any more than they do the "salutatories," but nevertheless he ought to have honored the old fossil he ought to have printed a valedictory. I said as much to him. and he replied: I have resigned my place I have departed this life I am journalistically dead, at present, ain't I?" "Yes." "Well, wouldcn't you consider it disgraceful in a corpse to sit up and comment on the funeral: 1 record it here, and preserve it from oblivion, as the briefest and best valedictory that has yet come un der my notice. Mark Twain. 1 .o. 1 am ffteatiDl lor the kindly way in which the press of the land have taken notice of my irruption into regular journalistic life, telegraphically or editorially, and am happy in this place to express the feeling.

The passengers loudly cheered the heroic action. On recovt ring consciousness the gentleman who had so nearly lost his life expressed the deepest gratitude. The young lady persistently refused to give h er name, when some New York merchants mentioned their desire of presenting her with a testimonial.
