An unfortunate mistake in the Matrimonial
line occurred in this cay b fsw evenings since,
and We refer to it now more for The purposc'
of pqxng te unvary Oh epakd, ted pssseu1

sent nom home oves night. A NV York
clergyman who was visiting him remained in
young man, accompanied by girl who hung
tendssly upon -his cossslssse, spplied ct thS
house, and ssnodestly stated that BE and HI
fair partner wosld be very much grained il
be yoked fer life, and he wanted to sea M.
- The visiting Clergyman informed him
thar Mr.. - was absent. - a. But said ne,
can perform the ceremony Just % well. y
The yopng man looked at the young wonan,
and she looked at him; then be smiled and
abe sniled then they both looked at the
minister, and there was brief silence, which
va broken by the young man, whs said,
wen, yon IL do, sir; come along, Mafis y
and the parties entered the psrleF 70 proved
TO bssinesa. The knot wss duly tied, aad :
certificate made out, and the newly>wedded
pair Left to enjoy their honeymoon.
The next day the absent clergyman re-
turned, and his friend had passed over tho
fee he had received, being quite elated over
the privilege he had enjoyed Of doing serYjpe
in his absence. Imsgine his surprise when b
was told that the whole ceremony was iiiegda,
and that the young man aud woman whom
be he'd joined together were made the vie
Tins OF a sad mistake. In proof of this, Que
Of the public acts passed By tie Cannscsieut
Legislature, May session, 1885, was read, .
portion of which is as follows:
81 Il, l,aao.aI
cording to the forms and usages of the de-
nomination to which he belongs, and located
in any society in this State spep "a engage
nent e continue 81 minister Of such society
for atsrp Of time not less than six mopthS,
and having charge thereof, may join persons
in marriage, and marriages attempted to be
celebrated by any other person shall be roid ~
Here was dilemma. The New York
clergyman had acted from the best of motives
and had done only what the laws of his own
State would have permitted him to de, ye;
there was the Law, md be had received fee
and issued q certificate for uniting
1.-TWO souls with but single thought,
gsa Two hearts that beat as one"
who were not, after all, married, as most
people like to be, to make a sure thing fit.
All that could be done, under the circum
stances, was 10 ascertain the whereabouts Of
the honeymoon excursionists and suggest to
them that it would not do them any harm to
come around and be made man and wife oyss
again, snd steps have been taken to let them
know Just how matters stand. When the let
ter announcing the mistake reaches them, We
shoudn't be surprised in the least II the young
man and the young women gazed upon each
other in very queer sort of manner. How
ever, accidents will happen, and they will un-
doubtedly, make the best Of this one,-Har-
ford Post.

John G. whittier on hts own Literary
Life.
The following letter from John g. Whittier
appears 10 the last issue of the Nation


am very well aware that merely personal
explanations are not likely 10 be as interest
ing to the public as to the parties concerned,
but am induced to notice what is either .
miseoneeption on thy part, or, as 10 most
probable, failure on my own to make my
self clearly understood. In the review of
"The Tent on the Beach," in thy paper of
last week, confess | was not a little surs
prised 70 find myself represented as regret
ting my life>long and active participation IN
the conflict which has ended in the emapci-
patton OF the slave, and that had not devo-
ted myself to purely hterarypursuits- Inthe
half playful lines upon which the statement
is founded, if did not feel at liberty TO boast
Of my anti slavery labors and magnify my
editorial profession, certainly did not mean
TO anderrase them, ee to express the shadow
Of a regret that they had occupied SO
large share Of my time and thought.
The simple fact is that cannot be suffcient-
" thankful to Divine Providence that % ear.
ly called my attention to the great interests
Of humanity, saving me from the poor am
billions and miserable jeslousies Of sel6 sh
pursuit Of literary reputation. Up to com
| paratively recent period my literary writings
have been episodical, something apart from
\ the real object and aim Of my life, and Wat
ever of favor they have found with the pub-
lie has come to me with grateful surprise
rather than as an expected reward. As
have never staked ali upon the chances OF
authorship, have been spared the pain OF
/ disappointment and the tepptatiou to envy
those who, as men Of letters, deservedly oc-
cupy higher place in the popular estimation
than have ever aspired 10. Truly thy friend.

Allegheny Live stock Market.

TUESDAY, Sept. II, 1867.
CATTLE.-Witha an unusually Large
supply of Cattle this week, not less than
lI00 to 1900 head, and no Improvement
in the demand, the market, us matter
of course was Il hard one,
ana upon an average, prices
ruled lower. The dry weather
seems to be forcing large number OF
cattle TO market now, which, otherwise,
would have been held back two, or per
haps, three months. As a general thing,
however, the bnlk of the cattle offering
are of an inferior character, the policy
of stock growers and farmers generally
being to get rid of their poor stock, and
hold their best cattle back until later i'll
the season, when il is expected that
there will be stronger markets and
better prices. This, however, is all sur
mise, as the indications now are that
cattle will he even cheaper in the win
ter than now, rs there is no scarcity, and
beef, like u good many other articles,
will have to come to something near
where it was before the war. The fol-
lowing sales were reported.
