cY' The editor of the Butler County
(Ohio) Democrat lately attended wedding
in that county, where the ceremony was per-
formed by young Justice Of the Peace
The editor thus reports:
The Squire was "a regular Democrat, and
a very young man, besides being extremely
bashful. As luck would have it, this was
the first wedding at which he had ever been
called upon to oficiate, and it may be sup
posed that he was somewhat embarrassed.
managed, however, with trembling voice,
to call upon the parties to stand nm and Join
hands, but, horrible to relate, he had forgot
ten the ceremony, and neglected to take with
him his book After a pause of few mo-
ments, the Squire broke the silence with the
following question:
SIN the name of the common wealth OF the
State of Ohio, I-''''Know all men by these
-" "Do you solemnly swear to take
this woman to be your wife, to love, honor
and obey her, to support the Constitution of
the State Of Ohio, and to vote the Democrat

voice cannot here be hushed in the silence

CO From the ToM3blatt, published at
the German settlement of Hermann, Mis-
souri,, we learn that this years vintage, in
the early part of the season, has been an
average one. The quantity of wine produced
will reach twenty-five thousand gallons,
which is highly satisfactory in view of the
fact that last years yield was enormous,
and that the vines seldom yield two conse-
cutive heavy crops. The yield per acre of
the difcrcn, vineyards is variable, three
and four hundred gallons per acre being
secured in some, while others afforded only
fifty gallons per acre. In general, however,
the vintners are we'll pleased with the re-
suit, and have no cause to complsin Of hard
times.
