A MARmAaE IN PAR1s.--A London
correspondent. writing upon modern mar
riages in Paris, says: II went to ,he
church to assist at the marriage of dis
tant relation. The tiuptial ceremony
was delayed, as too often the case, BY
n funeral service. The friends of the
bride and bridegroom soon crowded the
church, and bravely advanced towards
the altar; the awkward coffin did not stop
them for secon3; they placed themselves
around it; their dresses and coats grazed
the pail; the gentlemen shook hands oyer
the corpse; the ladies exchanged sweet
smiles and charming greetings with the
hand. those petite bonjoar which only
Partisan ladies know how to distribute so
coqucttishly, and all this took place across
two lines of funeral tapers. These mum
dane politenesses in church, that implous
indifference for the dead, was d horrible
and revoltia 6 sight, and yet not one
looked astonishcd, except myself.
