A correspondent cf the Century in givingsome reminiscences of the old country seatcalled " The Cottage," in Hanover county,Virginia, gives an account of General Washington's suit to and rejection by Mary Cary :

Her father was Wilson Cary, Esq., of " Ce--leys," in the county cf Elizabeth City, de-

scended from the noble family of Hunsdon,in England. His relative. Col. Archibald Cary, of " Ampthill," in Chesterfield, was at hisdeath the iieir apparent to the earldom. Theworthy old gen leman seems, from all "we

know of him, to have been as proud as theCoucys or the Somersets; and to havethought his family the noblest in the land.He lived in ereat state, with chariot andhorses, plate and velvet and embroidery aworthy of the old school, fully satisfied 'withthe "order of things," and enjoying serenelythe good gifts of Providence. His beautifuldaughter was a great heiress, and had manysuitors the accident which befell one of themhas made her remembered in many books.He was a young man of very high character,a relative of Geo. Wra. Fairfax, Eq., wholived in Belvoir, on the Potomac: and herehe met with Miss Cary, who came to visitMrs. Fairfax, her eldest sister. The youngman at once proceeded to fall in love, whichhe did with an ardor characteristic of his na-

ture. When Miss Cary went back home to" Celeys," on James River, he followed herlike a courageous gallant, and laid open siegeto the fair fortress. In the good old times,however, something more was necessary thanthe consent of the young lady ; and so theyouth duly asked a private interview withthe awful old lord of the manor, who listenedto him silently throughout. When the loverhad finished, Mr. Cary rose, made him a lowbow, and said that if this were oung Mr.Washington s errand at "Celeys, his visithad better terminate ; his " daughter had beenaccustomed to ride in her own chariot." Andwith this allusion to the poor condition of theyounger son, the interview terminated."Toung Washington bowed and turned away,and in due time married Martha DandridgeCustis, who " resembled iliss Lary, saysmy authority, " as much as one twin sisterever did another.

But the old tradition does not end hereMany years fled away Marv Cary was Mrs,

Ambler and her discarded suitor was theman who had just received the sword of Corn- -walks, at lorktown: whom the whole civilized world hailed as greatest among the great

" the foremorst man, not only ot Amenca,but of " all the world, lie passed throughthe old metropolis, Williamsburg, at the headof his victorious troops, and the people werecrazy with joy and ador-itio- almost. Thevast multitude nearly prevented his horsefrom proceeding the calm statue on horse-back passed on serenely. All at once he perceived at a window, or in the crowd, his oldbve, Mary Cary. He raised his sword andsaluted her proioundly. the lamted.

But it does not seem tuat the lovely womanwas to blame. She had not been able to return the affection of the youth that wn3 allShe married him who won her heart, EdwardAmbler. He wss rot unworthy of tlu noble lady in rank or in character. He was desounded through Ins mother from the greatHuguenot house of La Roche Jaqueline, inVendee, and inherited the honest instincts ofhis race. At twelve he had been sent for hieducation to England ; he graduated at Cambridge, and then mane the grand tour of Lurope, returning to Virginia when he wastwenty oue. He was married to Miss Carysoon aitervvard; became Collector cf lork.and was so much repected that when Lorduottetourt earns to lrginia a Governor, hbrought a letter of introduction to the Collector. He di?d at thirty-fiv- e: and the Revolutionary War breaking out soon afterwardhi? beautiful widow moved away from thescene cf her cnef, and took refuge in th"'Cottage," far up in Hanover.

TEEIVE.

Only think, madam, what an influence youare ackuw,edged to possess, l our uusoandfortune and destiny are in your hand. Hmust ask your ieave before he can tlirive. IIcan't be prosperous and ?ucce?sful in aceuUlulating wealth, unless vou will so far cooperate with him as to take care of what heaccumulates. If you are reckless lnyourexpenuitures. you may rest assured that vouwill one day bring embarrassment if not ruinupon him. You can baukrupt him by your" pin money. jor is this the bruit of youinfluence. A man ha3 a will this must notbe thwarted ; he has a temper this must notbe ruffled, otherwise he will have no encouragement to work, and yon know a man canwork unless he is encouraged to it. He musbe cheered on by love. He must have a reward of smiles, kisses and caresses in pro:pect, or he can't make an exertion. If a mangoes from a scene of strife and bickering tohis omee, he is dispirited and void of energy,How can a lawyer, lor instance, conductprosecution against a man lor assault uponhis termagant wile, with any degree of zealwhen he thinks of the Xantippe of his ownbosom r liow can he speak against a poorfellow suing for a divorce on the ground of" uncongeuiahty of temper, when he knowithat he would rejoice at a release from I113

own connubial yoke ? How can he prosecute a man for deserting his wife, when hefeels that very moment like running awayfrom his own ? How can a merchant workwith any degree of energy when all he makesis to be squandered by a woman who doesnot love him ? You need not speak of whata true woman would do under such circumstances. I know very well. I know themore she is trampled upon, the stronger andbraver she prows ; that the more worthiesher husband becomes, the brighter and purershine the jewels oi her character xn contraslhave seen the wife, when the husband hadbrought poverty and disgrace upon his household, instead of dying the cowardly death ofme suicide, or sinsmg beneath her burden intodespair, I have seen her rising up strong andorave ana true, wrestling with a giant s energy and strength aga nst her disgrace, andthrusting it, vanquished and dying from herhearthstone. But there is another sense inwhich your husband must ask your leave tothrive. As a general thing, what a man isafter marriage depends in a great degree uponhis wife. He rises or sinks to her level. (Ibeg pardon ot the lords lor the insinuationcontained in the last sentence, that a manmay. by some cause, manner, means or in-

strument, be inferior to his wife, but I wascpeaking of them as moral not as intellectualbeings.) With regard to social rank, I knowthat a man is but little affected by marriageHis position is the same, while a woman's iselevated or lowered to her husband's; butmorally, the process is reversed. A worthless wife will make her husband worthless.A pure, good wife exerts the same kindthought not the same degree of influence inelevating her husband just as a person descends a hill more rapidly than he ascends it

So, my dear madam, you perceive how thething acts. I Lope you appreciate the responsibility of your position. Your husbandmust ask your leave be'ore he can thrive. Uhe tails in business, usn t On the estimationof the world) for want of prudence and application on his part but on account of yourextravagance ; if he gambles, it is to repairlosses induced by the same thing ; n he drinksmore than is good for hi3 head and stomach,it js because his domestic jars and broils havedriven him to the wine cup as a burial placefor his woes as a Lethean stream in whichto drown hi3 sorrows. If he deserts you andhis children, it is because you are a most out-rageous shrew; if he i3 a forger or defaulteryour extravagance is again his excuse, and ifhe shoots a man down in the street, it is be-cause his conscience has become seared byhis associations with a bad woman. If hefails in life, at least one-ha- lf the blame is laidat your door; if he succeed if he wins wealthand laurels, you have the honor of courseyou have of being hi3.

The Superior, Capt. David, took her trip fromCincinnati, and left here yesterday at noon inher place, and we suppose she will continue onthe trip. Capt. David is a very clever boatmanand Charley Topping, tho clerk, is one of thebest on the river.

Tbe Strader bad drifted across the channel, butwas finally sparred round, ennabling tho FredTron, which bad been detained above her, to workthrough on her way to St. Louis.

The TecuiHoeh wa3 hard at work all day yesterday rubbing her way through the canal, eucounter ing ranch trouble just this side of the new lockat the head. She was stuck fast in the mud theretor several hours.

The Diana, from New Orleans telegraphedfrom Memphis Thursday night, that she wouldreach this port buuday nuon.

The Diana returns to New Orleans Mondayevening.

IST'The Tempest, Capt. Parr, destined for..tasuviue, auer getting tnraugn tne caaai aoout1 o clocK yesterday, was torced by the strong current over to the bar, near the foot ot Sand Islandwhere aho was very much listed, and in the hurryol the moment to lighten her, some SO or 40 barrels of whisky on the lower guard were thrownoverooaru. ine current was washing her downon the bar, and it was thought she might turnover, but she was soon righted, the freight thhad been thrown overboard was recovered, anshe proceeded on to her destination without further delay. 1 he boat s crew, and the people alonshore, caught the whisky, and for a small consideration about 2 per barrel it was delivereagain to the boat.

At duk last evening the Tempest was at NewAloany all night, oa her way to ashvule.

Swindling o.v a Boat. We learn that severalpassengers oa the Fred Tron, on her way fromCincinnati, two or three nights since, were swindied out oi ? jijo and a watch, by some sharp leilows wno luitiated them into the gme of mont.Oae of the suiferers, a German, returned to Cincinnattto prosecute the rogues.

J3F"f ishing this spring has been very success-ful at many tavorite bauuts, but the best that wehave yet "heard of was on Kentucky river, atLoikport, and points above. A party of ama-teurs from Cincinnati, with hook and line, aresaid to have taken over one thousand game fish.Didn't the fellows catch 'em in a net?

The Martha Pctnasi Raised. The MarthaPutnam, which was sunk a few days since by but-ting tbe bank, just below the canal, was raisedlast night. Capt. Jewett, thoughunwell, usedevery exertion to save and raise her, and treatcredit is due him for saving the cargo. Pumpswere set to work, and tbe greater portion of thecargo removed jesterday, and her guards wereabove water last evening.

We are informed by parties who vere present,that Capt. Jewett was untiring in his etforts togave and take care of the cargo, and to his exer-tions must, ia a great measure, be attributed thesuccess of tbe undertaking. Tbe underwritersof St. Louis and Cincinnati, as well as the agentsin this city, owe him the fullest thanks, if not amore substantial token of their appreciation. Onthe hull of the boat there was not a single dollarof insurance.

J2T" A St. Paul paper of a late date has the fol-

lowing:'Toe Mississippi is more than a foot higher

than ia the flood ot 18.G, and within two feel ofthe great flood of 1851. The water has raisedeleven feet since the breaking np of the ice, andis anil rising. All the islands and bottoms areentirely submerged, and loose dead trees and driftwood are carried along in grand confusion. Muchdamage is being done all along the river. Tbelower part of Winona is under water. The ioadto La Crescent is impassable, and tbe railroadgrading to Root river is badly washed. Ourwhams are submerged; th plank road to NorthLa Crosse is two feet under water. Passengersfrom tbe railroad are taken off at North La Crosse.The railroad track is still secure."
