Miss - had been published, and
we're to be married on Thursday even
ing. Great preparation had been made.
Some friends Of the intended bride had
come from Boston, and more were ex-
pected every moment from Newbury-
port, to attend the wedding. The brides
clothes, the cake, the wine, SC. SC. had
all been previously conveyed to the
house of the bridegroom. The Honora-
BILE bridegroom got himself in readiness,
proceeded with his chaise to the resi-
dence Of his cara sposa, almost-sent his
horse and chaise back to bring his sister
went into the house, where the gay
company was fast being assembled
took off his boots and put on his pumps:
when all Of a sudden, he proposed that
the marriage should be postponed! The
man was stoical--no plausible reason
could he give, for the life of him, for his
motion of postponement; but as for being
married that night he would not! The
spirits of the bride were reused! The
mother too felt the indignity! She eau
toned the Honorable gentleman to be-
ware how he thus trifed with the feel
ings Of her daughter and the honor of
her family! She told him it might not be
well for him after her son should have
arrived from Newburyport. But the
stoical bridegroom took care to avoid
that, by deliberately exchanging his
pumps for his boots, resuming his hat,
cloak, &c. and departing for his own res
idence, singly and alone! On his way,
he met his sister, going 70 the wedding,
whom he told to turn about for there
would be none. Home they went, shut
up the house, with the BRIDES clothes,
cake, wine, and other marriage para
phernalia, in the same, and left the COM
pany, at the BRIDES residence, to enter
tain themselves in the best manner they
might. What followed may be better
imagined than described, with the assis-
tance Of two items, viz: the Honorable
bridegroom has scarcely been out since;
and two chaises, which brought compa-
ny from Boston to the wedding, owing to
the disappointment Of the evening, got
smashed to pieces.
We have the facts, above stated, d.
rect from Andover. We purposely avoid
mentioning names; but the story is in the
mouths Of all in that town.
1t is said that the engagement be-
tween the parties in this singular. affair
is Of several years standing.

the United States, to whom they
have long been individually known as
established Letter Founders, that they
have now formed co-partnership in said
business, and hope from their united skill
and extensive experience, to be able to
give satisfaction to all who may favor
them with orders.

Of the tedious and unhealthy process of
casting type by hand, desideratum by
the European and American Founders,
was by American ingenuity, and heavy
expenditure of time and money on the
part Of our senior partner, first success
fully accomplished. Extensive use Of
the machine cast letter, has fully tested
and established its superiority in every
particular, over that cast by the old pro-
cess.

hereafter be carried on by the parties be-
fore named, under the firm of WHITE
