A Rich scene.

The Falcon Patriot gives an account of
scene which took place in that village not loog
since, which is the richest thing we have
heard for long time. The substance of the
matter is about as follows:
One Sabbath, clegyman in the village was
called upon by man who wished him to go
forthwith to hotel, then and there to bind
him In the silken cords of matrimUny. The
minister having previously engaged to preach
funeral sermon at that hour, delegated vi
sitting brother 10 accompany him, who on ar
irving at the designated house, made the twain
one flesh. The bridegroom's JOY knew no bonds
and in the fullsess of his heart he banded the
Clergyman q ten dollar note, upon receiving
which he proceeded to the Church. Soon the
services commemorative prayer was made,
and the first hymn was being read, when the
newly. married man was seen hurrying down
the aisle, toward the pulpit. His excited man
ner and frightened looks, rivited the attention
of the congregation. He assembled the steps to
the desk, and whispering TO the minister said,
'You're the man that married couple this
noon, amt yon2 tell you what, there's a
mistake about the matterl" al am not the in
dividual who married the couple" said the
minister; "a friend ofiiciated." ayes you ddt'
persisted the fellow, "and tell yen there is
misieke.h
The clergyman assured him he labored I'M
der false Impression, the gentleman who
married the man was present aud could speak
for himself. "Where Is hei show him to me"
said the stranger. The minister descended
from the pulpit, and followed by the man, ap
preached the pew in which sat the gentleman
who tied the Gordan knot. The fellow knew
him, and pushing aside his conductor, said
while the peFspiration covered bis face
mister, there's mistake made IN that mat
ter" "Wbat is IL, prayln said the divine,
supposing he had married the wrong parties.
"Why,n said the fellow, Il gave you $40 bill
and meant to have given yen 81 bill, can
make the thing right now, You give me the
$40 bill and here's yonr change" "We will
step into the vestibnle," said the preacher
mo, don't take that tronble-here's your
money" said the new made husband. The
eyes Of the asselnblsge were upon them, aud
the position Of the two clergymen can bet
ter Unsigned than described. The man that
made the mistake and the minister who tied
the knot, went out together-the services were
resumed, and we presume the groom went
home satisfied with the FIRST lesson in the dra-
ma Of connubial felicity. We drop the cur
tain.

Not SO sure of she Result after AN

Not SO sure OF the Result after All.
The Union and Amerscan is not SO sure
after alI-albeit majority of over seven
thousand is registered on its side-that
Tennessee has been fixed as firmly as
Mississippi in the democratic family" In
its issue of Sunday morning it breaches
short sermon to the brethren on Conven-
tons. 1t is evidently afraid that the party
may be endorsed next summer, and hence
the necessity of cautioning the ambitious
not to indulge in undue aspirations for leg
islative or congressional honors. The b'hoys
must stand aside, and let the Intriguing
managers fix up things, select their men,
and then the voter may come up and carry
out their viii. Here is part of the Union
and Arieriodn's article. Will not our Amer
lean readers ponder it well and prepare
to resist the efforts of the opposition to
crush out" Americanism forever
CoXvENTIoNs.-We have not yet heard
of the announcement of a single candidate
for Congress or the Legislature We may
therefore say few words on the subject
OF political conventions, without being sus-
pected of personalities towards any member
of our party We would be glad to see
the rule adopted of bringing out candidates
for representatives, both congressional and
legislative, by conventions of the people
We know that there are prejudices against
conventions with some members of our par
ty, yet as general rule they are of mate
rial service We can call to mind several
occasions when the Legislature has been
lost to the democratic party because Of fail
ures to hold conventions and rule off ambi-
tious aspiFants. Mr.. John Bell owes his
seat in the Senate TO contests among DEM
ocrats for places in the legislature. The
next legislature will be democratic, if our
strongest men are candidates, and only one
of them candidate for each place What
we want to see is, a convention in every
senatorial and representative district in the
State, which shall bring out the best man
for each place. In close districts, this is
necessary to secure the election of demo.
cratic members. In strong districts, it is
necessary, to prevent the weakening of our
State ticket by the swapping of votes"

SINGULAR AND UsEFUL FACT CONNECTED WITH
THE FIGURES 25 AND 76.-It may not be generally
known that any sum can be multiplied by 20 by
simply adding two cyphers to the multiplicand, or
the sum to be multiplied, and then dividing by
Take for example IS, and multiply by 25; two CT.
pliers being added make $780, which sum being
divided 4, gives the quotient or answer, LOO
The reason why the amount is thus obtained, is as
follows: two cyphers being added to IS have ex-
actly the same effect on that if it were null
piled by 100. and that sum multiplied, being divi'
ded by 4, gives the fourth part, the amount due
to IS. Any sum may also be multiplied by 70 by
the same rule, in the following manner To the
sum to be multiplied, say 6s, add two cyphers,
which makes $500; divide LOO, or fourth part,
being substracted from the aforesaid $780, / ayes
the remaining threesfourths or amount due to 70.
