AIarrIage Interrupte.I.


One day last week, the Rev. Phillip Toll
liver was waited on and informed that his
services were needed to unite
Two souls with but single thought, &C.,
in the bonds of holy wedlock. According
to promise, the Reverend gentleman was
al the place designated at the proper time.
In q short while the couple, dressed appro
priately, took their places on the floor, and
the Reverend proceeded with the ceremony
uninterrupted, until he put question sim
liar to the following: q If there be any
persons present who know Of any cause to
prevent these two beings made one, they are
requested to speak now. or forever, hereaf-
ter, hold their peace" No sooner had this
question been asked, than an individual
who had up to this time been remarkably
quiet, arose and, with the fore-hnger Of his
right hand elevated, and brought on level
with his nose, and about twelve inches from
it, cried out, "Gilmore" After the rev.
ereI gentleman had recovered from the
shock brought on by this unexpected inter-
ruptioD, he inquired of the individual who
cried iGilmore," if he knew any lust cause
TO prevent the couple from being married
whereupon the following brief dialogue
took place:
Gil-That young lady promised me, 10
longer ago than yesterday, to become my
bosom companion.
Rev.-Wen. my dear sir, that is not
legal objection; it is evident that the Ia
dy's mind has undergone 3 change, and
that she now prefers snother-nOthing il
legal in that.
GiL-She positively promised to marry
me, and want to hold her to it.
Rev.-You cannot do it; the objection
which you ofor TO her marrying Is not le-
gal aud it cannot be respected.
GiL-Well, old fellow go on with your
rat killing.
The Reverend gentleman proceeded
with the "rat killing" without further in
terruption, and soon made the couple bone
of one bone and. flesh of one hesh.-Cin-
eiqnGti C0tOred Citizen.

FROM GuUIsVTLLE.

LOUISVILLE, Nov. 25.
Some Of Jesse's guerrillas were at Shell
byville last night robbing stores, etc.
jesse was at Eminence the same time
plundering the people. A Federal force
was sent out from Frankfort to-day to look
after him.
General Burbridge, with his command,
has arrived at Cumberland Gap.
An accidental fire at the State Peniten-
tiary, at Frankfort last night, destroyed
the chsir msnufsctory, blacksmith and
cooper shops. Loss $4,000.
Rumors prevail here, which if verified
would be contrabsnd, that Hoods army
was marching on Pulaski, on Wednesday,
with about 80, 900 men, composed of 5000
cavalry and ten batteries of Artillery in
cluding reinforcements from Forrest and
Dick Taylor.
Hood will either fight at Columbia, or
leaving Columbia to the left, will march
into East Tennersee and Join Breckin-
ridge. 1t is possible that battle may be
fought at Columbia to-day.
A rebel Colonel was killed in a skirnish
yesterday.
A detachment of our pickets were driven
within three miles of Columbia where the
rebels were Iepulsed by our infantry.
On Wednesday cur forces Withdrew
from Pulaski and will soOon be concen-
trated at Columbia. There is no danger
of Paducah for the present

HOODS MOVEMFNTs.

LOUISVILLE, Nov. rs.
The Journal reiterates that Hoods army
occupies Waynesboro from which point be
threatens both Nashville and PAdueah.
That portion Of our army confronting
Hood is concentrated at Pulaski.
Psducsh is being placed in state Of
defense.
Thanksgiving, in accordance with the
Presidents proclamation, was very gen
orally observed. The stores were all
closed and the churches well attended.
The chief event Of the afternoon was the
opening of the new street railway. under
the auspices Of New York Company
with General J. T. Boyle as Jresident,
The running Of few horse cars attracted
crowds Of citizens. General Boyle treated
the populaee with conveyance grstus along
the route, and the cars were overwhelm-
ingly crowded.
