A Country Wedding.

The preacher was prevented from taking part
in the ceremony, and NEWLY made Justice of
the Peace, who Glanced to be present, was call
ed upon to officiate in his place. The good
mans knees began to tremble, for he had never
tied the knot, and did not know where to be-
gin. He had no Georgia Justice, or any other
book from which to read the marriage. The
company was arranged in a semi-circle, each one
bearing a tallow candle. He thought over every
thing that he had ever learned, but all in vain;
he could recollect nothing that suited the occa-
sion. A suppressed litter all over the room ad-
monished him that it was time to proceed with
something, and in agony Of desperation he be-
gun:
"know all men by these presents that l."
here he paused and looked up to the ceiling,
while a voice in Il corner of the room was heard
to say
'IIe is drawing a deed for Il tract of land;'
and they all laughed.
an the name of God, amen!" he began again,
only to hear another voice in Il loud whisper
say
"IIe ismakmg his will. Thought he couldn't
live long. he looks so powerfully bad.
"Oh, yes. oh, yes.r' continued the squire.
A voice replied, sob, no. oh no! don't let's"
Some person out of doors sung out
Some into court" and the laughter was
general! 6
The bride was near flinting; the squire was
not far from it. Being an indefatigable man,
however, he began again:
"To all and singular, the sher-"
"Let's run, he's going to levy on us" said two
or three.
Here a CLEAN of light flashed across the face
of the Squire. He ordered the bride and groom
to hold up their hands and in a solemn
voice said.
"You and each of you, do s%olemnly swear, in
the presence of the present company, that you
will perform towards each other all and singular,
the functions of husband and wife, as the ease
may be, to the best of your knowledge and abil-
ity, so help you God"
GOOD as wheat" exclaimed the father of
the bride.-Stanto,d Advocate.

SINGULAR PREMoNITIoN.-In an interesting
article in the Christian Examiner for the present
month, Mr.. Ticknor mentions a singular fact
il connection with the death of the elder and
younger Buckminster, father and son. The
latter, after a sudden attack, died in Boston on
the 18th Of June, 1912, at noon. His father,
who was journeying for his health, died in YER
mont next morning, without any knowledge of
his sons condition, but saying with almost his
last breatll-"My son Joseph is ead;;"-adding,
when assured he must have dreamed, 81 have
not slept nor dreamed-he is dead" The effect
was electric, and adds Mr.. IT, however acct
dental the coincidence might be, and however
men might be persuaded that it was SO, all ac-
knowledged its strangeness, and few failed to
be conscious of its influence.

Here the veteran paused and resumed his
pipe.
But tell US about the cross, and what became

Voices.
The captain still lives and is now a retired
General. But the best of it was, that as soon
as he recovered, he placed me under arrest for
fifteen DAYS, rs 4 punishment for my breach of
discipline. The circumstances reached Napo-
Icons ears; and after laughing heartily, he not
only released me, but promoted me to be a SER

A STEAM IDoL.-In the History of Won
derful Inventions recently published, we find
the following curious account of an ancient idol,
which, acted upon by the agency of steam, de-
ceived and astonished it's credulous v%otaries.
This is one of the earliest instances on record
in which the expansive properties of steam were
applied to any purpose: ut is also recorded, that,
upon the banks Of the Weser, the ancient Tue
tonic gods sometimes marked their displeasure
by a sort of thunder-bolt, which was immedi-
ately succeeded by a cloud that filled the tenn
pie. An image of the god Buserick, which was
found in some excavations, clearly explains the
manner in which this prodigy was accomplished
by the priests. The head of the metal god was
hollow, and contained within it a pot of water;
the mouth, and another hole, above the forehead,
were stopped by wooden plugs; a small stove,
adroitly placed in a cavity of the head under the
pot, contained charcoal, which being lighted,
gradually heated the liquor contained in the
head. The vapor produced from the water hav-
ing acquired sufficient pressure, forced out the
wooden plug with a loud report, and they were
Immediately followed by two jets of steam,
which formed a dense cloud roundthe god, and
concealed him from his astonished worshippers."

THE SURRENDER OF G~oRGEY.-The Philadel-
phia Pennsylvania, of the 10th, has the follow
ing:
"a very intelligent friend, now in Paris,
writes that the fact is susceptible Of proof, that
Gorgey, the young Hungarian General, was
purchased by Russian gold. Two millions Of
dollars were previously offered to Dembinski,
another of the Hungarian Generals, but he in
dignantly refused the bride, and exposed the
plot. 1t is believed that Gorgey was more
easily approached, for he secretly afterwards
yielded his fine army into the hands of the foe
of his country. We give the sad story as we
have received it; by no means vouching for its
accuracy, though it comes from an unquestion-
able source"

claim mpon your support which is held by that
patriot soldier and man, Col. Richard A. Stew

rung forth upon the morning wind, and the

armor upon him, and walked forth to battle for
his country and her rights leaving behind him
the endearments of domestic life, and the COM

the seat of war, more anxious to serve his
country upon the battlefield than in her peace
