Prom the New York Courier & Enquirer. DEATH OF CHIEF JtSTICE MARSHALL. By the sea-ward.sweep of the rivers wave. In the hearts of the free enshrined, He went to sleep with the mighty and brave; And left not a rival behind. In the mild warm light or the summer' sky. As the sun to the view went down; He fell as a warrior doomed to die, From the land of his young renown. Aa a cliff he stood in a stormy clime, Mid the strife of the tempest bound; With temples bath'd in a light sublime, That euiird on the elements round. On the tranquil bow of his bending frame, TimA mnv'ii with a slow-pad hand; But he sharpen'd his scythe when the dim glance came, And number'd his years by his sand From the mournful shades that around him spread. Vn wnr.note sounded hisdoom; But where they have gather'd him home with the dead, Sweet Liberty points to his tomb. As the white shroud fell o'er his limbs in sleep, And his funeral dirge was rung. The voice of his courtry's grief was deep. And his death-pall widely flung. In the far green land where he sunk to repose, As the breeze on the tranquil main, The bright'ning beams of hi9 fame arose, With the depth of his country's pin. They bore him home to his land of fame, To the soil of his classic clime, Where his star looks forth with a quenchless flame, Through the darkning clouds of time. From the Trenton Emporium. ONE CASE FROM A HUNDRED. At thirty .Harry IiluOel first seriously thought of matrimony. Not that single blessedness had 'turned bitter in his mouth,' but that he fancied he could always love a friend and enjoy a jdeasent companion, and by one glance at the evening of his days, he perceived it would be a solitary scene, unless he could enlist some one to standintcrestedly near him through it. He disliked solitude more than mornins: walks to market, or tea tales of cookery, and so resolved to get mm a wiie. Matrimony is one of the most important steps we take in life,1 savs a fashionable writer.' '1 am sure, cried a pretty fashionable little miss 7 . - iii-i -.ii to be married just as one would like,in these days, is as difficult andjrare as'is it important, heigho!' 'Now thtn, I am resolved,' said Harry, 'it is the easiest matler in the world to accomplish; and Ml settle Mrs. BlufTel in six weeks, at farthest. System," says he, 'system is the soul of business;1 and he drew his pocket book to pencil forth, to make a minute of arrangements. The following entry was soon written down, and the explanatory monologue spoken. J uly 23 warm, very warm Resolved to get a wife; shall 1 give teasons! Perhaps briefly well,rcsolved to get a wife 'as a matter of convenience.' Let me see. There is Anna A and Julia B and Catharine C acd about twenty, twenty four and twenty sixT Now possibly there may be some previous engagement or such matter, to prevent some of these from falling into my views or arms, but out of three I am sure to get one; 111 wrile them down as I intend to proceed, in rotation, giving the youngest preference. I'll offer first to Anna A second to Julia B , third and last toCatharineC .' After a week's courtship, Miss Anna A number one, declined the tendered heart and hand of her friend Harry BlulTel. A minute to that effect was made under her .iamc, with Harry's reason. 'Did'nt know which side her bread was Buttered.1 On the succeeding Monday evening, a like tender was made to number two, aged twentv four. Julia had 6ecn enough of the world and human nature, to know that alter a 'certain age' lew come to woo; and calculating all her chanees,thought the present offer a crisis.' At last she told Harrv with a blush, 'that she had been sur prised at his declaration, and felt almost over powered by her feelings; it was a subject of the deepest moment, and she was sure her kind friend would not object to her taking a week to consider it. ftot at all not at all. Ham' took out his book, as soon as he ar rived at home, added to No. 2, 'accepted, the girl knows what's what.' Then drawing his hand twice across Io. 3, he exclaimed, Hhe account is closed, errors excepted. Within six weeks the wedding day was fix ed. 'iNow my dear, said Harry to his Julia. on the evening of the day, 'to morrow we will be practically man and wife, let us be theoretically so to day. I want to talk of household affairs.' Julia answered that her father would prove their furniture. Nay, but h e won't provide that which 1 want.' 'O. that he will,' replied the smiling girl, he said wc should have every thing we could desire." Well, my dear Julia, I desire to do just as I please after marriage, without cross or trouble, let or hindrance will he furnish me that! Whatever pleases you will please me, Harry, as you snaii De satisned 1 trust' Harry gave her hand a gentle press, and said, 'spoken like the good and sensible woman that you are.' AH this,' said the bride with a smile, 'is becoming theoretically maniedisitf The are united." The furniture was pur

chased and arranged ; they went to housekeep

ing. Julia proved a tidy, noble house wne, and kept every thing in the greatest order and cleanliness. All this was necessary to her husband's happiness, for he loved to see thines present an invitingaspect. But Harry loved his ease also, & thought it possible a woman might be too nice. Here Julia differed with him. I wish my dear you would not come in at that door in wet weather; your feet are to spoil the carpet.' How then shall I get in, love?' inqired the affectionate husband. Why, you can go to the other door, so up the kitchen stairs, thro' tlie chambers, uovvn into the sitting room. There would be little comfort in that round Julia.' To we there would be n.uch,' said the wife. 'I would rather pay for twenty carpets than parade through the whole house to save one. I would rather save one, than throw away money for twentv,' said theeconomical Julia. My house is my castle,' said Harry sternly, and in it do as I please. My house is my empire, and in it 111 have my way,1 rejoined the amiable Julia with sarcastic resolution. 'You're a deceitful jade,' exclaimed the indignant Harry,; 'but two months since you knsw my desire t do as I pleased in nrvy own house did you tnarv to make me unhapnv? 'We were then theoretically mrrried, my gentle Harry prac i 'ally the theory will not work. I married as much of my own ac count as yours. Has that unnatural? 1 married you for a convenience, exclaimed the enraged spouse, and find vou the most in convenient article in ihe house. But it is too late now' he muttered, as he withdrew; 'the hussy will lead me a most wretched life, unless I submit. A thousand little evils are more tolerable than a woman's tongue.' In wet weather, BlulTel now enters the siltinsr room via up the alley, through the alley, through kitchen, up stairs, through the chambers, and down another flight of stairs. By taking this circuit he spares the parlor carpet and his lady spares him. KecoIIect both Mr. and JUrs JJIutlel mar ried for convenience. Without love they soon ceased to respect each other. That fore taste of bliss which the united, devoted heart gathers from the smile of its inseparable com panion those pleasant dreams in the arms of purity and faithfulness which steals away life's hours- the sweet thrill of untold j-y, felt a very new proof that we are not instrumental but necessary to the happincssof our nearest friend all were beond their reach. They had perverted the holy instruction of Eden the only veslige of Paradise remaining to man. Blasted hope realized miserydescended upon them. Julia became a tyranical scold, Harry a submissive, spiritless slave and the spirit of domestic happinesa stranger to them both. From the New York Transcript. THG DUTCHMAN AND HIS THOUSAND DOLLAR BILL. Away back in the slate of New York Jives a Dutch farmer, well to do in the world who always keeps about him a thousand dollar bill. With this bill in his pocket and a shabby coat on his back, he prides himself in playing tricks with strangers; particularly such country merchants as have recently commenced business in the neighborhood, and are not acquainted with his pecuniary circumstances. As an instance of this kind, he went lately to a new merchant, with his clothes all in rags his toes slicking out through his shoes, his hub without a crow n, and his beard a fortnight old and ordered a few dollars1 worth of goods. The merchant stared at him; but as there could be no great hazzard in lying out the ar ticles for him, none of which were to be cut, he executed the command. When the goods were ready, the merchant stared still more to hear his scurvcy looking customer ask him to charge them. "Charge them!"' exclaimed the man of merchandise 'ha, ha, ha! we're not in the habit of charging our goods to everybody. We keep a sharp look-out for breakers." "Won't you charge 'em, den?' 'Not to you, I thank you. You must have a better coat on your back to expect credit from us!" "Den if you won't charge 'em," said the Dutchman, with great moderation, "I must dry and bay for 'em down, if so be supposin I can muster money enough." Then taking a thousand dollar bill from his pocket he cxten ded it to the merchant, with a sly leer on his face and said "V ill you change dat? ' 'That what! a thousand dollar bill! Is it possible that that a man of your appearance ' 'What, Mister, be's you scar't, ha! Did vou nefer seen a thousand dollar bill afore?' A man of your appearance!1 continued the merchant, in astonishment, 'with a thousand dollar bill! I could have sworn 'None of your tam'dt shwearin here, if you pleas Mister but give me mine change, dat 1 may be off to mine farm again.' 'Off to your farm! A thousand dollar bill! Who are you if I may be so bold V Who be' I! Wy, dont' you know your own neighbors, man ! My name is Fritz Van Vogler a poor man, mit no more as one thousand acres of landt, and disshmall bill in mine pocket, dat was so if you'll change it, and let me be gone I'll dank you.' 'Change it? Lord sir! where should I get money, of a morning to change a thousand dollar bill? 'Den what shall I do, mishler? You won't drust me, nor you won't change mine thousand dollar bill.' Trust you ? Mr. Van Vogler that I will, to the amount of a thousand dollars, if vou

wish. You didn't suppose I was afraid toj trust you, did you? said the merchant, growing very complaisant. 'Haw, haw, haw!' roared the Dutchman, as loud as he could laugh 'you begins fo haul in your horns a little, does you? Shtrung wat wonders a small thousand dollar bill wil work in a man's goot opinion! So, you'll drust me now will you?' 'Certainly, certainly, sir,' 'No, I'll be dam'dt if you shall if so be suppoia I can find silfer enough in mineo."ket to bay you.' As he. said this the Dutch man hauled out an old stocking full of dollars paid for the goods, and giving another hearty

haw, haw, haw, at the astonishment and sud den change of opinion of the merchant, de parted. From the Code of Manners. RULE i FOR YOUNU LADIES. At Futeen Affect vivacity and line your bonnet with pink. In the company of tinman you would like for voui husband, hold your breath long enough to b'ush; when In speaks to you, incline your eyes downwards in giving an answer. Be cautious at tlrs age to wear gowns made high in the neck, that your charms may be conceived the greater. At Sixteen Seem to have a high spirit, with the most unbounded submission, to tinopinion of the favored one. You may now look when in conversation m the gentleman s face, but be cautious that the eyebrows are kept well arched . Affect a great fondues for little babies, and get the credit of being a good nurse. At Seventeen Read the news, literature and fashion, and from your opinions of the fol lies of the day upon what vou hear from oth ers, and not upon w hat you know and observe vourselt. Keep the works of Byron, Scott. Bui wer, James, and oilier popular authors, ly ing on your table, to induce a be lief, that you have them all at our tongue s end, and that you keep pace with the literati ofthe age. It is pleasent to hear ready discussion about the beauties and virtues to be found in such char acters as Flora Melvor, Rowena, Rebecca. Julia Mannering, Mary Dacre, &r. &c. Heed "Cookery made easy," and Heloiseand Abedlard.in secret. At Eighteen Look for a husdand for your self, and practice making baby linen for a friend. Condemn play going women, and talk of the happiness of retirement and domestic life. Simper "miminy piminy" to put your hps in pretty shape, and kissvolumplously before gentleman, to set them longing. Wear low frocks ; but don'l show olTtoo much. Talk of modesty, discretion and industry, in others, to prove that you think ol them sometimes yourself. At .Nineteen Co to routes and parties. but aviod general flirting. Dress fashionably, but with great decency. Wear no flow ers in the hair, but let the curls be displayed widely. Laush when others look grave, and when particularly engaged in conversation, study to ippear meditative and .absent. It will go far to fix an air of romance about you, and cause much talk and speculation. Such deceptions arc harmless and admissible to the tenderer sex. At Twenty Consider yourself in danger of getting a husband, and now suit your con duct to your circumstances. Talk ofthe rarity of suitable matches, and your determination to become circumspect. Distinguished Eulogists. Daniel Webster, Judge Story, Horace Binney, and Benjamine alkins L.eign,have been respectively selected by their fellow citizens to deliver and eulogy on the late Chief Justice Marshall--and they all have concentcd to perform the duty assigned (hem.
