A SINGULAR SCENE AT A WEDDING
The Gateseead Observer records the
following singular and afecting-aye,
terrible scene at wedding:
At a recent marriage in Thorne, York
shire, a girl joined the procession to
church, marching in front, her person
indicating that she must shortly become
a mother. She muttered maledictions
on the match, and when the knot was
tied, she rejoined the "happy couple, -
and read the 109th Psalm, containing
the words, "Let his days be few, and
let another take his Office. Let his
children, be fatherless, and his wife a
widow Let his children be continually
vagabonds, and beg. Let them seek
their bread, also, out of their desolate
places. Let the extortioner catch all
that he hath, and let the stranger spoil
his labor. Let there be none to extend
mercy unto him; neither let there be
any to favor his fatherless children
Let his posterity be cut of, and in the
generation following, their name be
blotted out" And so she went on with
the psalmist, invoking curses on her be-
trayer and his offspring, and when she
had done, she three times crossed his
path, and then departed with her shame.

POWERFUL AND PUNGENT.-A very
venerable lady who resides in a suburban
cottage kept a few hens for her own
amusement. In feeding them one day,
she wet her feet, and a severe bilious at
tack resulted. She sent for box of
anti-bilious powders, and she was about
taking dose, when the idea suggested
itsel If to her that nature was natures
best restorer, and she threw them into
the garden. In few days she found
herself fully recovered, and with a sharp
appetite, and looking at her chickens,
she resolved to have one boiled for din
ner, and her neighbours son soon brought
in one with a dislocated neck. After
thirty minutes she took it from the pot,
only to find it as a stone, and she re-
placed it, and gave it another trial, with
no better success; and the third time she
tried it. until after two hours and half
she gave it up as a tough subject. The
trouble was this-the chickens had par
taken of the anti-bilious powders, and
there was no ''bill'' left in them.
Nature cures thousands, despite of
medicines and doctors. She cannot con-
quer all, hence some die.

SPIRITUAL MANIFESTATION ION THE
ST TAGE.-Bensley had to play Henry.
w.. in Richard III. After that mon
arch's death in the early part of the
play, he had to appear for moment or
two as his own ghost, in the fifth act
The spirits were at that time exhibited
en- 5uste, through trap. Now our Hen
ry was invited out to supper, and being
anxious to get there early, and knowing
that little more than his shoulders need
be seen by the public, he retained his
black velvet coat and bugles, but dis
carding the lower part of his stage cos
tune, he drew on jaunty pair of new
tight nankeen pants, to be as far dressed
for his supper company as he could.
When he stood in the trap he caution
ed the man who turned the crank not to
raise him as high as usual, and of course
he promised to obey; but wicked low
comedian was at hand, whose love of
mischief predominated over his friend
ship, and he suddenly applied himself
with such good will to the rounee, that
he ran King Henry up right to level
with the stage, and moreover, he gave
his majesty such a jerk that he was
forced to save himself from falling
The sight of the old Laneastrian mon
arch in costume of two such different
periods above-all nan
keen and novelty below, was destruc-
tive of all decorum before the stage and
upon it. The audience emphatically
"split their sides;" and as for the tyrant
in his tent, he sat bolt upright, and burst
into such roar that the real Richard
could not have looked more frantically
hysterical had the deceased Henry ac
tually so visited him in the nankeen
spirit.-Dordn.
