MARRIAGE IN NORWAY.

In Norway. we are teld, the marriage
ceremony usually takes place in winter.
when travelling is comparatively easy. and
the peasants are unoccspied. A week be-
fore the important day, messengers are
sent round. to invite the proprietors and
servants in all the neighbo,ing farms.
The room where the marriage is to take
place is festooned with green boughs
huge pieces of beef and large bottles of
corn-brandy, have been prepared by the
careful housewife, in royal abundance and
all the neighbors, for miles around, have
contributed to supply any deficiency in
the articles of china and plate. Soon the
gallop of horses is heard. and the pretty.
light sledges come jingling into the court
yard. The guests are received with a true
northern welcome" They are made to
sit down by the blazing fire. and piled with
beer and corn brandy, to counteract the
benumbing effects of a winters journey.
The jingling bells are again heard without.
heralding the approach of fresh party
and thus the guests continue to arrive for
hours, until two or three hundred people
are assembled.
After a substantial breakfast has been
discussed, the betrothed pair are brought
forward by their relations and seated in
state in the midst of the great room, on
two chairs covered with silk cloak. The
priest blesses them. and, when the pray
ers are finished, proceeds to table on
which servant has placed a large plate.
Addressing the company generally. he re-
comlnends the young couple to their no
tice. Every one knows what the pith Of
this harangue will be !; and purses are fur
lively drawn forth.
The relations come forward first, and de-
post upon the plate certain bright crown
pieces. specially reserved for the occasion.
Then come the rich neighbors, some of
whom give as much as sixteen or eighteen
shillings each. The servants brings up the
rear, each with his or her little contribu-
ton to the stock and then the Company
seat themselves at table. The guests re-
main for two or three days. They sit
down to table in successive parties, and
sleep in the great stables and out houses,
wrapped in their furs. But when the
guests have departed. and the newly mar
/. led couple come to count the contents of
the plate, they find that their hospitality
has not left them losers.

LAW OF NEWSPAPERS.

;. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take
their newspapers from the post office to

Without informing the publishers, and the
newspapers are sent to the former direction,
they are held responsible.
!. The Courts have decided that refusing

removing and leaving them uncalled for

:. The United States Courts have also
repeatedly decided that a Postmaster who
r-g,ects to perform his duty of giving

A MULE BEwITCHED.

A popular idea seems to be that the long
cared tribe have been deprived eff the power
of speech since the days of Balaam, but we
had this morning eccular and auricular
proof of the fallacy of this belief. AS we
were coming down Bread street, we noticed
little this side Of the Planters Hotel, q
crowd collected around the wagon of a
countryman, and we stepped up to learn,
if possible, the cause Of the excitement.
The wagon was drawn by two mules
one of them rather bad looking specimen.
who seemed to hail from a region where
corn and oats were rarities-the other de-
cidedly better locking and giving unmistaka a.
BILE evidence, we thought of having been
better fed. The wagon was loaded with
that delightful esculent so popular in the
South-sweet potatoes. Prominent in the
crowd, we noticed little black eyed. gray
haired man, who was busily engaged when
we came up. in negotiating a trade for one
of the mules-and strange to say for the
poorest looking one.
Now, my friend" said the little man,
Il want this mule-I have frst-rate
match for him and want to make out the
pair. How old is he 7"
Five years last spring" replied the
eountryman.
"Golly! what lie ~ cried the mule.
pricking up his ears.
Country started-tbe crowd looked
frightened-and one or two colored gen
tIemen incontinently fed, as if the devil
were of the party.
"Who-who was that" asked the dealer
in potatoes at length. having somewhat re-
covered his voice and senses.
why mer promptly responded the mule.
What are you lying about! You know
you have had me fifteen years"
There. my friend" said the little man.
your mule c"ntradict< you-and he ought to
know his own age"
"I'll be derned if know what to make
of you or the mule" exclaimed the eoun-
tryman, "knew he's only FIVE years old. for
raised him myself"
There you lie again." said the mule.
Take that" exclaimed the infuriated
owner. forgetting his fear for a moment.
and striking the animal over the mouth.
Don't do that again" said the mule.
''or I'll kick you
The countryman's eyes almost popped
out of his head. and there il no telling what
would have been the result. had not some
one arrived. who recognized the little man
as Signor Biltz. the well known Magician
and Vrniril"qui<t-which explained the
mystery and relieved the countryman.
