A MATRIMONIAL DISAPPOINTMENY..—A curious
termination of en intended marriage took place at Helifex
on Sunday last. Oa that day. Henry Orem., of Mount
Tabor, and Mary Mitchell, of Gibbetttetrest. in that town,
bed wronged to be married at the parish church. The
wedding party met before the ceremony at the Spotted Cow
Inn, in Gibbet-street, and proceeded thence towards the
church. When they had arrived at an Inn named the Flag
of Bede, the bride found holt with her intended husband
for en having hit/shoed clean! They, however, still panned
the journey, but so shocked was she on going along the aide
of the church In company with the dirty boobs, that she
renewed the complaints, and, setting at defiance all mecu-
m:ranee, left the church and refused to be married. Dinner
had been provided for sixteen, and tea for twenty. After
the mune of the wedding party, the proportion of renames
to be borne by each poly farmed a further topic of dispute.
The diespieleted bridegroom refused to pay anything unless
be had the ring, which oast him 10r., retuned, and then
declined to contribute more than one.half. The final jig's
will probably have to be decided la a court of law.—Lards

firmer. The [decline of 1-16 to i per taut which
was quoted after the close of the Stock Exchange

are also quiet, bat very firm, with a tendency to
improvement. Some of the principal British rail-
way stocks, as well as Grand Trunk of Canada,
have advanced.

A further considerable quantity of gold has been
relied from the wreck of the Royal Charter, making
an aggregate of about 200,0001. up to the present
date. Toe whole of the gold on freight has now
been recovered, except about 72,00(1. The bulk of

found firmly driven into an iron plate by the action
of the sea.

Telegrams from St. Petersburg announce the
failure of Mr. Frederick Hill, with liabilities esti-

The directors of the Great Ship Company have
circulated what they call an" approximate statement
of the liabilities and assets of the company," and
remark, somewhat apologetically, and not very gram-
matically, that this, " had the meeting been held on
the 13th inst., was all that could have been laid
before the shareholders." The statement shows that
' the cash balance is reduced to 1,1001., and that this,
together with 7,2421.—" arrears of calls considered
good" (in respect of which the shareholders would
he glad to know who are the persona in arrear)—
formed, until a day or two ago, the only re-
sources available for meeting liabilities to
the amount of 43,000/. The official circular
now intimates, however, that, " It will be satisfac-
tory to the shareholders to know that one of the
objects for which the meeting of the 15th inst. has
been postponed has been satisfactorily obtained,
arrangements having been entered into to meet all
the engagements of the company." This paragraph
refers to the mortgage of the ship, a transaction
which the shareholder,' regard with any feeling but
one of " satisfaction," the more especially as it has
been arranged without their being permitted to say
a word in the matter.
