An Economical wedding.

|
The New York correspondent of the
Rochester Union says:
"New York has long been celebrated
for her magnificent entertainments, and
especially for her weddings and wedding
breakfasts. On such occasions the guests,
unwilling to be outdone by the host in
liberality, sometimes vie with each other
in presenting the bride elect with costly
gifts of every description. One, two or
three rooms, as the case may be, are set
apart at every fashionable wedding
where the presents are displayed and
commented upon by the invited guests.
1t has been frequently suggested by the
more prudent members of society that
these offerings be entirely suppressed,
and that none but the immediate rela-
tions should commemorate the day in
this wise; but the idea has met with no
favor, till of late, when one of our fash
ionable Murray Hill princes took a
most determined step towards REFORM
As it is the only case of the kind on rec
ord, a description of the wedding may
not be uninteresting.
"Several hundred invitations were
given and at the appointed hour the par
lors were crowded nearly to suffocation.
The bride was attired in white marcelline
silk of most scant proportions; her veil
consisted of one breadth of tulle caught
in her comb at the back of her hair; no
flowers were worn except very minute
bunch in front of her dress. The
groom was attired with like simplicity,
thereby attracting considerable atten-
ton. No refreshments were offered to
the wearied guests, who gladly bade
adieu, and retured to their homes.
There was false hope raised in
the minds of few, on seeing a
large bride-cake in one corner, that
a glass of wine and piece of cake might
be served but the illusion was dispelled
on questioning the waiter Zone only be-
ing in attendance) who informed them
he had instructions not to cut it! The
presents were spread upon small table,
and created no little astonishment. One
five dollar gold piece was laid upon a
card bearing the inscription, 'From your
affectionate Grandfather A coin of
half this value was presented by the .af-
fectionate Grandmother while devoted
brothers and sisters testified their affec-
tioh by the presentation of gold dollar
each.
CAS- might be expected, the guests de-
parted early. One lady was unfortunate
enough to have ordered her carriage to
call for her at midnight. She saw all
depart, and then seated herself to await
patiently its coming. After while a
savory smell of oysters, coffee, &C., came
floating on the air; with some confusion
of manner the members of the family
one by one disappeared, and, after some
delay, the host hesitatingly invited her
to partake of some refreshment. She
declined, and the family retired to dis
cuss the supper, leaving her to await her
carriage alone in the parlor."

A FerocfOus NIOnster-HO1v King
TheOdorus Nassacred Hiis Pri.-

A FerocfoIis MOnster-Hovy King
TheOdOrus Massacred HIS Pri.-
Oners.
The New York Herald's correspondent
in Abyssinia describes the late King
Theodorus' massacre of his prisoners:
He had them drawn up in two lines,
numbering two hundred and seventy-five
men, five women and twenty eight boys.
One of them, Ras Ingerta, Gala, Chief,
defied the King to single combat, declar-
ing himself able, chained as he was, to
cope with the King. The latter savagely
declined and cried, "Spearthe Gala dog,
lngerta, spear him | say" and Ras
Ouarary Euric, ever ready to obey Theo-
dorus, leveled a spear and flung it at his
breast. "Thou hast done WE'LL" said the
King, as he saw the weapon had gone
deep into his bosom; but Ras Ingerta
plucked it out of the wound and flung it
contemptuously at Theodorus' feet.
"Another one, "shouts Theodorus; ''spear
him again." and six chiefs immediately
sank their weapons into his body.
The wounded chief stood up bravely,
and drew them all out one after another,
the blood squirting from his wounds in
crimson streams, when he fell down and
died.
Impatient at the slow progress of the
execution, the King shot ten dead with
his own hand. and throwing his revel-
yer away, he drew his sword and leaped
toward the trembling prisoners. Eyeing
them moment, he seemed to choose one
for whom he entertained perfect hatred
tor he said to one, "Ah, your hour has
come. 1 am going to drink your blood"
and raising his sword, he cut his head off
at one blow, and then drew it again
across his abdomen.
Theodorus' face and clothes were GOV.
cred with blood, and, like tiger who
had tasted blood, this seemed to increase
his fury. He foamed at the lips and his
eyes became bloodshot. After stabbing
and cutting about fifty with his own hand
he rested, and ordered that his chiefs
should try their hands. Many of them
had personal hatreds against the cap
tives, and they proceeded with an as
tonishing alacrity with the awful task
of massacre. Whenever he witnessed
dexterous blows he applauded, but when
he saw cuts given that but manned the
poor wretches, the King would spring up
and demonstrate what an easy matter it
was to send the head clean off the shoul-
ders, by choosing a strong, sturdy pris-
oner and decapitating him with his own
hand. T
a young and beautiful woman of
high rank, perceiving that her time
was was coming rapidly, ran up to where
Iheodorus leaned upon his drip
ping sword, and, throwing herself
at his feet, entreated in piteous tones

The English pawnbrokers complain,
it is said, that their interests suffer se-
verely from the frequent changes in fe-
male fashion, and that when articles of
clothing pledged with them are not re-
deemed at the end of twelve months, the
changes of fashion greatly deteriorate
the value of such articles. The Asso-
citation of Pawnbrokers therefore pre-
pared bill to be introduced into Par
ilament in the next session authorizing
the sale of all articles of clothing not re-
deemed at the end of six months instead
oftwelve. 1t appears that large guam
titles of clothing are pledged by persons
without any intention ofredeeming them,
solely on account of the frequent
changes of fashion.

Mark Twain ON the Accordion,

Mark was, as many other young men
are at some period of their lives, anxious
to learn music. He tried first one in
strument, then another, till finally he set
tied down to the ACCORDION. On that
soulstirring article of music he learnt to
play that melodious and popular air,
"Auld Lang Syne." For about week
he continued to torture his unwilling
hearers, when, being of an ingenious
turn of mind, he endeavored to imp owe
upon the original melody by adding some
variations of his own. But who has
ever seen real genius succeed yeti
just as Mark had finished his only tune,
and wound up with an admirable -four
ish, the landlady rushed into his room.
Said she:
"Do you know any other tune but
that, Mr.. Twain ?" [ told her, meekly,
that did not. "Well, then," said she,
"stick to it just as it is don't put any
variations to it; because it is rough
enough on the boarders the way it is
now"
The upshot was, that its "roughness"
was soon made manifest, for half the
boarders left, and the other half would
have left had. not the landlady discharg-
ed Mark. Then, like the wandering
Jew, Mr.. Twain went from house to
house. None would undertake to keep
him after one nights music; so, at last,
in sheer desperation, he went to board at
an Italian lady's-Mrs. Murphy by name.
He says:
'The first time I struck up the vari-
ations, haggard, care-worn, cadaverous
old man walked into my room and stood
beaming upon me smile of ineffable
happiness. Then he placed his hand
upon my head. and looking devoutly
a!oft, he said with feeling JUNCTION, God
bless you, young man God bless you
for youshaVe done that for me which is
beyond all praise. For years [ have suf-
fered from an incurable disease, and
knowing my doom was sealed, and that
[ must die, | have strIven with all my
power to resign myself to my fate, but
in vain-the love of life was too strong
within me. But heaven bless you, my
benefactor for since 1 heard you play
that tune, and those variations, do not
want to live any longer-I am entirely |
am willing to die-in fact, 1 |
am anxious to die And then the old |
man fell upon my neck and wept flood
of happy tears. l was surprised at these
things, but could not help giving the
old gentleman parting blast, in the way
of some peculiarly lacerating variations,
as he went out of the door. Theyl
doubled him up like jack knife. and
