 Melancholy Tfdings.-That noble race of Indians, (the Mandans) which short time since numbered some three thousand souTsv mas become extinct, by inc ravages of the small pox; A gentleman belonging to the Hudson's Bay Company, has arrived in this city, who passed through the Mandan village. and there found that only small remnant of the tribe, some twelve CT fourteen, remained to tell their melancholy fate. It is farther stated that the distemper is now raging to a frlghttui extent among the Black Feet, and that 1t will probably extend to other tribes. FataI Accidean.-Yesterday, as the locomo- tive ot the four o'clock train of the New-Jer- sey Railroad, was running out from the en- zine house at the Bergen depot, man got on behind the tender, and on their backingup to the cars he either fell or jumped off, and the locomotive and tender passed over him, by which he was instantly killed. From paper found in his pocket, his name is SUD- posed to be Dorsey, shoemaker, and it is supposed he has wife and daughter living in Orange street. He had on brown dress coat, black satin under vest, and Valencia vest, drab plaid pantaloons, calico shirt, brown silk stock, black silk hat and bootees, about 3o years of age.-Cour.

 AgracuhuraI Remarks in the Vicinity of tLe Cay of Neac- York, for Decem6er.-The month has been one of a most extraordinary char acter-probably within the last thirty years there has been nothing to compare with it, Ihc ground IS scarcely frozen-indeed in many places exposed to the sun, the earth might be turned up with the plough. The cattle ln every direction are feeding III the fields, and pick up quite as much as in an or- dinary month of November. The grass un- der the fences and in favorable spots looks quite green. Although the springs are very low, yet the rivuiets are running, and almost as free from ice as in the month of April The roads may be said to be Macadamizad -nothing can be finer or smoother. The farmer is now enabled to send his hay, hogs, vegetables, &c. &c. into the New-Yorl 1 market with less inconvenience than con- mon. Nearly every day in the month has been clear and pleasant, reminding one of Spring rather than Winter-N. !. Express

 Marriage Outright.-Up in ono of the upper counties in this State, (N. Caro!ina,) young fellow named Ben Sykes had courted fair one for some years, but either was not ready or willing to put the question: she was full willing, perhaps too willing, but he never came to the scratch. At last she got mad. and swore she would marry Bill Patterson, if he ever courtcd her again. Bill, hearing of this, went and once moro put in his claim: but he was scurvy fellow in some things, and neither Nam nor Dad was willing to it. So he secretly goes to R, gets a license. and that night they made off for a Greina Squire. In their road to happiness, however, who should they meet but Ben Sykes! He had got an inkiing of what was going on, and, when he met them, he understood how the tease iay." "Sally," "says he. "I have fooled with you-that's a fact, and am sorry for it. But ityou still prefer me to Bill Patterson, just say so, and will give him a thrashing, take his license, and make old Moody marry us to- night. The old love was too strong for the new. Ben gave Bill q thrashing. took-his Gal and (what he hated most) his license, which cost him 75 cents, and was of with his plunder to Moody's. The old Squire did no. well understand how one man could be mar ried in virtue of a license granted 10 another. Ben said he did not himself understand law quibbies, but this he knew, that unless he did il he Qhe Squire,) would sketch it" too.- This hint was enough for Moody, who, with out more to do, pronounced them man and wife.

 P'irote Library.-There is one private l:- brary in this country, exclusively American, which we would give q splendid Illinois farm to possess. It consists, as we are told, ot up-- wards of seventy large quarto volumes, and all by the same author. That author came into public life before he was of lawful age, and has been in public life, with few inter- missions, ever since. He has travelled in many countries, and speaks many languagOs. He has held high stations abroad, and the most exalted at home. He has sformed ac- ouaintance with the most i!lustrious scholars and statesmen of Europe, forthe last halt cen. turv--and with all the affairS and voon ofh;s
