Too Bad.-A certain couple were
to be married on last Thursday in this
county. One of our town ministers was
engaged to perform the ceremony, and
on Thursday he hitched u certain horse
to a sleigh and started for the locality
where the marriage was to take place.
All went well, till it became necessary
to turn North. Here the right line
was pulled, but the beast stopped dead
still. Moral suasion was reso" ted to
but all to no avail. The beast was re-
soiute and determined to die on the
spot rather than face such horrible and
fatal weather. The minister being
convinced that the beast was in
exorable in it's determination not to
advance North, abandoned the inten-
ded visit. The animal was returned to
its stable, and the minister repaired to
his home, and we doubt not the stub
bornness of the horse saved the lives
of both parties. Whether said we'd
ding has yet taken place or not, we
have not been advised, but we assure
the reader that Mr.. Widman sells ready
made clothing very cheap. Don't for

AN OLD TRICK.-Last night drover from

dred dollars by an old confidence game. He
arrived a few days SINCE and sold his cattle
de was to leave for home this morning. Last
evening he was induced to take a walk with a
TREND. whose acquaintance he had made in
west Philadelphia. They arrived at the Con-
tlnental about o'clock last evening, and Iafter
Mr.; Wilson had admired its beautiful proportions
and tested the qualities of the liquor dispensed
tnere, he was invited to inspect the Girard
House. just as they were about to ascend the
steps OF this celebrated establishment 8 man
met them-"Have you got that money?n YES"
said the man In company with Wilson, at the
same time producing what purported to be a
i've hundred dollar bill. Change could not be
readily made. Wilson then handed his friend
two hundred dollars, and the receiver departed.
The other two entered the Glrard House, and
Wilson was left in the reception room while the
sharper went back to the cashier to get the
$500 note changed. Wilson waited until
O'clock nearly one hour and half, by which
time he began to realize the astounding fact
that ne had been ''done" out of two hundred
dollars.

A Chicago correspondent writes
There is evidently great matrimonial
Generalization in this city at this time.
Application for divorce are of daily,
almost hourly occurrence. Some of
the grounds for divorce are novel, if
not amusing. .g.. ~. rv.f n,
One OF our Leading city clSrgymsn,
in his pulpit this morning, in com
menting upon this alarming matrimO.
NAL Generalization, related a case that
came under his own observation.
During the past week a lady, hither-
to regarded as highly respectable,
came to him and wished to consult
him, as her pastor, in relation to get
ting a divorce from her husband.
The clergyman, greatly astonishOd,
asked her for what she sought q
divorce. She replied that her husband,
when she married him, was quite
wealthy, but had lately become so re-
dueed IN circumstances as to be unable
to support her the luxuriss to which
she had been actustoned, and this was
the whole ground for seeking a di-
voice. The Clergyman dismissed her
with a sharp admonition.
Another lady, a fow days since, went
to a lawyer, and sought his advice as
the quickest way Of getting divorce
from her husband. When asked for a
cause, she replied that her husband
was SO cross that she could not toll.
crate him. She acknowledged that he
never showed any signs of violence
toward her, and that he supplied her
with every necessity.
Another quite well known lady
some time since, sought, by letter, tbs
protection of a well known banker, be.
causs her husband was unable t.
crafty her fashionable tastes.
But the ~Strangest case transpireC
last week, The wife OF a well known
late captain sought a divorce upon tn,
ground Of u%ncongepiality. An invss
