The Mystery of a Lost Trunk.

An amusing story is told at the ex-
pense of that accomplished gentleman
and jurist, Hon. Connally f. Trigg,
which is too good to be lost. Just before
departing on the bridal trip from the
house at which he an his charming lady
were made one, he caused the cover TO
be removed from one of Mrs. t. trunks.
This necessary travelling appsrtenance
was, with the formidable array of bag
gage usual in such cases, checked to the
Louisville Hotel, but his newly-found
happiness very naturally caused him to
forget the trihing change which be had
ordered, involving as it did, but mere
piece of canvas. Yet TO this trifiing cir
cumstance was attributable four days
of such intense anxiety AID annoyance
as only a bridegroom brought to
sudden halt on his wedding tsur can
be supposed to experience. No sooner
were the loving pair shown to their lux
urious apartments in the Louisville Ho-
tel, than q want suggested itself to the
bride, which could be supplied only from
the identical trunk referred to. The
Judge fastened with commendabe
alacrity to obey the mandate. To his
utter dismay, no such article of luggage
as that described by Mrs. T. was to be
found in the office. He could rot have
been mistaken, as she had distinctly
mentioned white cover, on which was
the name she formerly bore. The oblig-
ing clerk searched and rummaged with
zeal and thoroughness never before heard
Of, but all in vain. The telegraph was
brought into requisition as q last
resort, under the impression that
George, of the ST. Cloud, had for once,
at least, been found mapping, but the
reply received from here was invariably
that the trunk had been checked and se-
tuslly forwarded to Louisville. The
railroad men also succeeded 10 clearing
their skirts of blame. Last Saturday
came the denouement Mrs. T. hap
pened to describe the lock peculiar to
the lost piece of baggage There, tow.
ering in all the majesty Of a genuine
Saratoga receptacle for feminine mystic
ries, before his very eyes, and the most
prominent object 10 the baggage-room,
was Mrs. It's lost trunk. Instantly the
discarded cover flashed upon his mind,
the luggage was almost as quickly trsas.
ferred TO their apartments, and the next
train carried the happy pair whirling
toward New York.-Nash. Banner.

Baptist Fair ana E.stlxal.

Mr.. EDITOR: The contract for erecting the
spire on the new Baptist Chur las been
given to Captain Num-, who commenced OPP
erat.o as yesterday. The spire, when com
pleted, wi BE about fifteen feet taller }than
the spire which adorns DR.. Browns new
Church.
In the erection Of their very beautiful edi-
fee the Baptist Society have had very many
discouragments to work against, but the in
domitable energy of the people, guided by
their Pastor, have almost arrived at the con-
summation Of their proudest hopes. For
some time the usual services have been held
in the lecture room Of the nsw edi6ce, but
they will i'll few weeks be transferred to the
spacious AID grand audience room, which il
now rapidly receiving the g finishing
touches Of the carpenters and painters.
When this work is all completed the ladies
will then step in and carpet the Church and
make such other improvements IS only the
ladies can suggest and DO. For this work
money is needed, and in short time our
paople will have an opportunity to render .
little aid as the 4les are now busily en-.
gagged making preparations for a Fair and
Festival, which will come of in week o,
two. The writer hereof pens these lines
without solicitation and without any connec.
ton with the Society in question, being
prompted to do so from admiration of the
energy which has given to our city one o.
the most elegant Church buildings, in exte
rior and interior, to be found in Southern
lows. A little more aid is needed. and it il
hoped our citizens en- mdsse will respone
whenever the ladies announce their Festiva
open for the patronage Of the public. Thi'
Fair and Festival will certainly deserve, ane
We believe will receive as great attendanc,
and hberality, in the way Of pecuniary aid
Is has bsen given to any Church Fair and Fes
tlvtl yet held in our city. Let all declare thei
intention to 60, speak favorably Of the oh
lject in which the time, attention and taste o
tho ladies is enlisted, and when the tim,
comes let everybody be present. A littl,
from each one-just a hhle-will toeethe,
make the sum total necessary to accomplish
the worthy object in question.
