~ Types sometimes make queer blum
dcrs, and especially when arranged or dis
arranged by careless compositors; but
often the manuscript is at fault, and some
times the reader is not quite as wise as he
thinks. for hat he calls blnnder may be
no blundcr at all Last week some omis-
sions, or 5unders were made in the marr-
age notices, in that the eomposi:or left the
clergyman name cut that married certain
parties, but this does not prevent thu happy
pair from enjoying all the Happiness that
belongs to mortals, nor from receiving Il
full measure Of congratulations, so no
harm can come from this careless omission.
In another instance, of departure from the
common form of notices, the copy of the
officiating clergyman was followed to the
letter. The editor did not see the proof !
