DEAR MoTHER.-Ada and Horace left
this morning on their bridal tour, and af-
ter the excitement of the wedding lhe
the house looks desolate enough, 1 as
sure you. One can scarcely realize that
these drawing rooms, with their fadded
flowers and falling evergreens, were the
scene only last night of so much gai-
ETY. and life. IreaIly think that half Of
O. was crowded into the house, or
rather in the house and piazzas for for
tuuately the evening was delightful, and
the greater part of the younger portion of
the company preferred the brilliant
moonlight and fresh air to the solar lights
and warm rooms.
Ada streneously objected to all this pa
rade at first, but her friend Maggie Ha-
zeton and Ella nearly broke their hearts
at the idea OF private wedding. when
they were to look so charming, and Mrs.
Lester said, that as Ada was going away
to live, she thought it would be the east
est and most gratifying way to most OF
her acquaintance in-C--- to bid them
farewell in this manner.
Ada at last yielded, for she was toe
thoroughly happy to think that anything
of the kind eau make much difference q
her.
1 suppose that l could not convince
yourself and Louise. who are even yet in
all the excitement Of Newport beax aud
bellies. of the very delightful season which
ne spent here. Ella pats on q long faee

for her mothers eye only. and certainly
the most manifest first breath of souls
utterance that we have seen in common
language. 1t was sent to us some years
ago by one of her friends, under seal of
privacy. which we presume is removed
by her death. She wrote II while at
Maulmain. the missionary station In In
dia, at which she had been left by her
dying husband, DR.. Judson, when he enl-
barked on nearly hopeless voyage for
health. At the date of this poem, he had
been four months dead, although it was
ten days before the sad news was COM
municated to her:

Judge erier and t e Wheeling Bridge.

S0NSS 1919 &c wheeling
The following clause is contained in the Memo
rial of the Wheeling and Belmont Bridge Conn
pany, 10 Congress, asking an investigation of GER
tain churges preferred against JUDGE GAIA, one
of the Judges of the Supreme Court. We invite
the attention OF our exchanges to this clause:
Towards the close of the proceedings upon that
motion, the honorable judge approached certain
officers of your memoralists With a significant
manner, and a remark that the controversy could
PROBABLY be settled by an argument which had been
found efectual at Harrisburg, and especially in
procuring renewal of the charter of The United
States Bank. For what purpose an alusion 10
bribery was thrown out, those to whom it was adj
dressed did not understand. nor did they desire TO
pursue the hint. But the culpable levity or more
helnous fault which il implied was often recalled
10 mind by subsequent events.
"W helher the same hint was ever tried upou
our adVerSarles CT, if tried. with what success,
your memorlaliSts could not know.
On the presentation 10 Congress, on Thursday
last, ofthe Memorial from which the above extract
is taken. the following proceedings were had, as
reported IN the New York Herald.
CHARGES AGAINST JUDGE GRIER.
Mr.. KIDwELL. Idem.) of Va. asked leave to
present a memorial { the Wheeling and Belmont
Bridge Company, asking for an investigation OF
the charges against Judge Grer. of the United

Mi. HowH, (free soiD of Pa, said if he follow
ed the promptingS OF his own feelings and iudg
ment he should object to the memorial; but he
felt satisfied the distinguished jurist had made
correct decision relative 10 the bridge over the
OHIO, and he would not object.
The memorial was then SO referred.

TRIAL OF THE STRENGTH OF BRIDGEs.-A large
number of gentlemen, The New York Times says,
assembled on Tuesday afternoon at the Crystal
Palace, 10 witness exhibition of the strength of
two models Of bridges, which have been for some
timeidispIayed at that place. The models were
perfect IN their construction, being. in every par
ticular except as TO size, like practical bridge
They were the Arch Truss Bridge, invented by
Henry Lanergan, of Boston, and the Uncle Sam,
invented by Hammond Howe of Cincinnati They
were models of bridges OF four hundred and fifty
feet s: an. The models were sixteen feet span,
and the sides about foot high. Both were con-
stincted of white pine, and presented yer, at
uactive appearance. The Uncle Sam model
weighed 81 pounds, and the Arch Truss 81 pounds.
The inventor of the former had announced that
Lis model would sustain twice The weight of the
latter; or be broken in the attempt. The weight
on the Arch Truss from time to time increased
until three thousand and four pounds and half
were put upon it. The weight on the Uncle Sam
was then increased to six thousand and sixteen
pounds. For few moments the bridge sustained
this immense personal---very. hundred times IFS
own weight--but soon after tile timbess broke
Subsequently about FIVE hundred pounds weight
more was added to the pressure on the Arch Truss
bridge but without breaking it. Its strength was
not tested further.
