THE UNWILLING BR1DRaRooM.--A
young man. had engaged himself to his
playmate in early youth, but as his mind
developed he perceived that he was
mismaled, and wished to bs released
from his engagement. The young lady
would not consent, and insisted upon be-
ing married. The young man appear
ed to yield, bat when asked, as usual,
"WiIl you take this woman to be your
wlfe?" he answered, "No." AT this un.
expected answer the marriage party,
broke up in confusion. The relatives 81
the rejected bride resented the insult
offered to their family, and threatened
prosecution. At last the young lady
proposed that they should 60 again 10
church and that the bridegroom should
make the usual answer, promising that
when it came to her turn she would
say no, that the refusal might appear
to come from her. Tie bridegroom
consented; but to his great surprise the
bride answered yes, the marriage cere-
mony was concluded in form. and he
found himself, against his will, a mars
ried man. -
As they came out. Of the church he
was heard to exclaim. "Ah! this. re-
venge was too bitter and | did noI deS
serve SO heavy punishment"
