Iust FOR Fun.

"a party of young ladies and gentlemen"
SAYS the Albany Knickerbocker, "went out
to ride one evening last week, and stopped
at a tavern short distance from the city
where they had supper. After which they
amused themselves by getting up,a marri-
age. A squire, who was at the place at
the time, was called on and married a coup
lie. Everything. appeared to 90 off as mer-
nv as the occasion required. The bride ap-
peared delighted with new. title and the
groom was, evidently, never better pleased
with himself in the world. The party re-
turned to the city towards morning; and it
was with great reluctance that the groom
parted.with his fair bride. She.consoled the
poor fellow, by telling him it would astonish
her folks to have them wake up in the
morning and find him in the house, and
that he had better wait till thenext evening.
With great reluctance he submitted
The next evening found him at her dwelling,
but the bride, instead Of being there to re-
ceive her lord and master, had taken shelter
in her. room, and forbade his entrance. She,
it appears, had taken asober second thought
and come to the conclusion that she would
rather enjoy single blessedness for while
longer. The poor groom, detected and bro
ken-hearted, of course, had to retire from
the field. Sundry messages have passed
between the parties since then, but how it
is to terminate We are unable to say. That
they arc fairly and legitimatoly married is
plain, from all wo can learn, The affair has
caused considerable excitement in certain
circles in town. The lady is young, heauti-
/ fuI and accomplished The gentleman is
quite good looking, and we have no doubt
would make good husband The only rom
edy she has is to apply to the legislatur' hut
We hope she will think better and aeknowl-
edge the gentleman, who pledges himfclfto
be her protector through life, to be her liege
lord. That's the way to do it"
