A Chinese Wedding.

From the San Francico Bulletin. Oct. 2s.l
A marriage in high life" took place
the other day in Chinatown, to which the
upper-ten of that locality were invited
Al Tau, the groom, is an old resident Of
San Francisco, but Sol Keou is a recent
importation. All Tau has had two wives,
who treated him badly-one deserted him
and the other squsndered his money,
His last bride he purchased for $500, of
her venerable aother, who intends to
return TO her native land and live in ease
and comfort all the rest of her days on
the proceeds of her fortunate traffic.
Warned by the infelicities of his former
marriages, Alb Tau resolved this time to
be bound by o double knot, and accor-
dinghy the services of Justice of the
Peace we're called into requisition. After
being united according to the American
law, the happy pair proceeded to the
Joss House on Dupont street, and there,
before the idols, the Chinese marriage
was celebrated. After burning a num-
her of sacred sticks before the shrine, the
groom offered the bride meat, fruit and
vegetables, TO signify that she was de-
uendent on him for support and that be
hound himself to maintain her. The
guardian beasts who stand in efigy BY
lhe shrine were then appessed by pres
eut, of meat, aud this concluded the GER
emony. A wedding breakfast, consist
ing of Chiaess dishes and several csses
of champagne, followed, and the bride
presented the guests with small packages
Of tea, done up in many colored papers
Masic and firecraekers concluded the fes-
tivities.

stolen Thunder-An Excitement in
Church Circles.

From the Philadelphia telegraph
Some few weeks ago it was announced
that one of our most popular divines, who,
with his youth and eminent oratoricsl
powers, had made himself national
fame in the evangelical circles of the
Episcopal church, and whose loss to our
city has been the cause of much mourn
ing among our fashionable people. was
about, like the Msgi of old, to 60 East.
The pulpit of Holy Trinity has, since
the departure of the former rector, been
supplied by what are known in cler-
icsl circles as wanderers, and by
the irreverent as wandering min
strels, bringing recollections of Jim
Bags" and his execrable clarionet
to the frsquenter of the playhouse. A
Sunday or two ago young gentleman
made his appearance in the pulpit and
delivered sermon that astounded the
congregation. Visions OF the glory of
young Brooks and reputation equal to
that of Pere Hyacinthe hoated before
the minds of the devout. The organist
played the congregation out, and the
comments on the bonnets and the dresses
of the gay throng were sleuced amid the
loud plaudits of the young divine, whose
sermon combined doctrine and disci'
pline in so mastery manner. The same
gentleman preached at Epiphany in the
forenoon, and there again stoundsd
the congregation of that church with his
eloquence. He took his departure amid
the warmest thanks of those who had felt
their religious zeal increased under his
spiritual sermons; but little dissp-
pointmont was to follow. A lady who
had occasionally visited Holy Trinity
during Rev. Mr.. Brooks ministry on
account of his uncle, the illustrious Wen
dell Phillips, and who was true Bosto-
man, familiar with all the sayings OF the
illustrious Dr. Claiming, sent note the
next day to the warden of Holy Trinity,
stating that it would not be necessary to
print the sermon of the Sunday morning
previous, as it could be found in the se-
iected sermons of the Rev. DR.. Claiming,
the shining light of the Unitarians. The
page and volume we're given, and there 1t
was found. A similar expose was made
at the Epiphany, and the congregations
were no wiser, as the occurrence was
kept quietly concealed by the few ac-
ausinted with the facts. The only ex-
PLANTATION is that the young gentleman
who did the plagiarism did not expect to
stumble over Boston female theologian
while wearing his borrowed plumes.

yalyer.
Al Vn.lr lUnrld

From the New York World.l
Au attractive young lady, giving her
name as Mary Emma Fort, and her resi-
denee 63 Sixth Avenue, went before JUS
tice Dodge, at Jefferson Market, yester-
day, and told distressing tale concern
ing her experience with desperate
suitor on the night previous. The lady
said she had once been married, but was
divorced from her husband last summer.
On Monday evening, Henry Conway, q
welI-to-do engraver, and aged twenty
nine years, called on Miss Fort, and du-
ring the evening, as the lady alleged, he
made an offer to her of his heart and
hand. The proposal to marry was
treated with scorn by the young lady,
who Immediately informed her suitor
that his visits might cease. Growing
desperate at being so cruelty rejected,
young Conway drew a revolver, and,
springing toward the lady, said he would
shoot her before be would see her mar
ried to another man. The weapon
was held to the lady's breast for
moment to give her an opportu-
nifty TO say she would accept and
save herself from destruction, and, as no
answer came, the pistol was fired; but
quick presence of mind enabled the lady
to thrust the weapon upwards, so that
the ball passed over her shoulder into the
wall. The reckless lover became alarmed
at his own rash act, and Immediately
rushed into the street. A physician who
happened to be in the house heard the re-
port and the lady's screams, and jumped

Of the fugitive, and he was brought to a

up at the station. He asserted, when
arraigned before the police justice, that
the shooting was accidental. He was
held to bail, however, to answer for felo-
Nous assault with intent to kill.

The Sen Lions.

California Correspondence Hartford Times.]
On Saturday last we visited the Cliff
House, situated beyond the bay on the
Pacific Ocean. The great attraction
there is the sea lions which inhsbit q
cluster of rocks 500 feet from the shore.
The hotel is built on rock foundatit n,
which is washed by the waves of the
ocean, and broad verandah is attached,
from which we get a good view OF the
lions. More than q hundred of them
we're lying upon the rocks on Saturday,
and schools of them we're playing about
in the water. When they come out OF
the water, with their fn-ike feet upon
the rocks Zone of which rocks is eighty
feet in hight, and they 60 to the very top
OF it), they lie in the sun till they are
thoroughly dry; then they set up loud
barking like mastiffs, and finally waddle
down and plunge head first into the
water
Tbey resemble seals, though their
heads are heavier, aud they are bodily
much larger, They weigh from 1000 to
1000 pounds, and one old fellow, the
king of the colony, who has lost one eye,
weighs, it is said, at least $500 pounds.
We saw him on the top of high rock,
and drew him up close with glasses. He
was q monstrous piece Of blubber, aud
roared like bulldog. He swims over
to another colony of the sea lions, thirty
miles distant, and spends two or three
weeks among them about twice year.
Eis name is"Geu. Butler" These ami
mails are protected by the State laws, and
are not allowed to hs killed. We could
distiootly see few seals among them, and
q few young sea lions. The old ones
fight feariully sometimes, and tear esch
others flesh in shocking manner. They
have four tusks, each as large as those OF
E Asistic lion.
