Rough Beginning ofthe Honeymoon

On last Friday morning an athletic
young farmer, in the town of Waynes-
burg, took a fair girl, "all bathed in
bushes" from her parents, and started
for the first town across the Pennsyl-
vania line, to be married, where the
ceremony could be performed without a
license. The happy pair were accom-
panied by a sister of the girl, a tall,
gaunt, sharp-featured female of some
thirty seven summers. The pair cross
ed the line, we're married, and returned
to Wellsville, to pass the night. Peo-
pie at the hotel where the wedding
party stopped, observed that they con
Quoted themselves in a rather singular
manner. The husband would take his
sister-in-law, the tall female aforesaid,
into one corner of the parlor and talk
earnestly to her, ge~sticulating the
while. Then the tall female would
"put her foot down" and talk to him in
an angry and excited manner. Then
the husband would take his fair young
bride into a corner, but he could no
sooner commence talking to her than
the gaunt sister would rush in between
them and angrily join in the converse,
ton. The people at the hotel ascertain
ed what this meant, about nine o'clock
that evening. There was an uproar in
the room which had been assigned to
the newly married couple. Female
shrieks and masculine "swears" startled
the people at the hotel, and they rushed
to the spot. The gaunt female was
pressing and kicking against the door
of the room, and the newly-married man,
mostly u~ndressed, was barring her out
with all his might. Occasionally she
would kibk the door far enough open to
disclose the stalwart husband, in his
Gentleman Greek Slave apparel.
1t appeared that the tall female in
sisted upon occupying the same room
with the newly-wedded pair ; that hel
sister was ~favorably disposed to the ar
rangement, and that the husband hat
agreed to it before the wedding took
place, and was now Indignantly repudi
ating the contract.
"Won't you go away, now, susan
peaceful 7" said the newly married man
softening his voice. -.
"No," said she, 81 won't-so there ?

married sister within the room.
"Now-now, Maria" said the young
man to his wife, in a piteous tone, "don1

with the Republicans or is disposed To

THE old artist Autumn,

An evening arrangement had been
made to entertain the great crowd of
fair ladies and brave men," who came
from far and near. Speaking com
menced at an early hour ana continued
till about two o'clock, when dinner was
announced, and one of the largest and
most respectable gatherings ever seen
at Jackson or in the vicinity, repaired
to the long heavily laden tables of the
cOuntry's best for the inner man.
Everything good and substantial, with
everything nice and delicate, was there.
1t may not be amiss to state some of
the good things served up on the oc-
casion : Nine beeves, thirty-scven hogs,
twenty-five sheep and a cart load of
bread constituted the "substantials,"
with extras" in equal proportion.
Think you not Mr.. Editor, but these
tables were respectable? Had you
enjoyed a practical illustration" of
their Responsibility, you'd admit i'll adj
vance they were.
After dinner the throng again assem-,
bled around the stand to hear a good
speech from Mr.. Van Eaton of Missis.

hidden "bchind the west" the multitude
repaired to their homes satisfied they
had spent a b~arbecue-day happily and
well.
Among the speakers of the forenoon
was DR.. Bard, | had not the pleasure of
hearing the Doctor, but from remarks
and comments upon his speech by men
of all parties, it would seem he threw
'hot shot" into the camp of the enemy
with a precision and effect completely
annihilating.
The Breckenridge and Lane Club OF
Jackson may well be proud of the sue.
cess of their barbecue. In point OF
number and responsibility of its attend.
cnts-particularly the large number of
ladies-and its management through
ont, it is seldom surpassed if equalled,
and will not fail in its effect at the bal.

His Majesty, who has short legs, and

sits in his open wagon on a very high
seat-so high that his legs are almost
perpendicular to his body, and he thus
stands rather than sits. Then, to add
further to the illusion, the seat of the
gentleman at his side is always eight
or ten inches lower than his own. The
two Wallets behing are also lower, and
thus the deception is complete"

AN UNE1AMPLED TRAG EDY.-Thc Gates IN.
c. correspondent Of the Petersburg Express
gives the fol lowing account of one Of the most
brutal and desperate tragedies ever put on re-
cord:
A man named Jackson accused lis neiulbor
Davis of having stolen some of his hogs. and on
last Friday evening, in walking around his
FARM, he discovered three of Davis children on
his land, whcrcupon he carried onc of them
home with him. The two other children re-
turned home and told their parents what had
happened. lnfuriated they armed themselves
with guns, axes and knives, and soon present
ed themselves at Jacksons house, where gen
clal fight ensued, in which both men, women
and children participated They shot until
their ammunition gave ont, and then closed in
with axes, knives and gun-barrcls. During the
shooting, son OF Jacksons, mere boy, was
killed by Gt is thought) son of Davis, also a
lad. Seven of the purity were dangcrouly
of the women having received
Il broken arm, and, it is said, fifty Juek shot,!
From all accounts, they fought as long as they
could, and quit with mutual consent. The
surviving parties have been arrested, and placed
in the county Jail to await trial.
