THE VERDANT GRooMsMAN.-On no
occasion (says the Springfield Republican,
do people seem more prone to commit
blunders than at a wedding. The follow
ing actually occurred in a neighboring
town:
In the midst of crowd of witnesses,
the clergyman had just completed that
interesting ceremony which binds in the
silver bonds of wedlock two willing hearts,
and stretched forth his hands to implore
the blessing of heaven on the union. At
this point, the groomsman seeing the open
hands reached out, supposed it was q Sig
nal for him to surrender the wedding fee,
which was burning in his pocket. Ac-
cordingly just as the clergyman closed
his eyes in prayer, he felt the pressure of
two sweaty dollars upon his open
palms.
The good man hesitatcd a moment, ap
palled at the righteousness of his situation,
but coolly deposited the money in his
pocket and proceeded with his devotions.
THE JEsUITs.-The General Of the Je-
suits has addressed circular, dated Rome,
Jan. 10, to the provincials of the order,
in which he instructs them how to act with
respect to the different forms Of political
government. The company of the Je-
suits being, he says, solely a religious Or
der, and devoted exclusively to the saliva
ton of mems souls, the members of it ev-
cry where to act as faithful subjects of the
Government under which they live, and
in no case to interfere in political matters.
In that matter only can they, the circular
declares, conform to the principles on
which the order is founded 1t is some
what extraordinary that if these be true
jesuit principles, the members of the or
der should require to be taught them at
this time of day.
