CHURCH WEDDINGS. Marriages besides be-

sacred. Two persons are made ono Tor o lille.
time. and assume the many responsibilities of
tho uniou. The important pledges made at
me altar are to endure while lite lasts. and
should never DO lightly made, They should
he given under the most sacred and impressive
auspices. It seems, therefore, eminently ap-
propriate that the ceremonies should be per-
formed in church, aud, it practicable IN that
church wherein the parties have been aecus-
toned to worship and commune with God
Lately, however, objections to church weddings
have been urged. 1t is said that the churches;
instead OF being occupied by the relations and
invited friends of the parties, as desired and
expected, are often crowded as soon as the
doors are opened by throng OF mere curlosl-
ty.seekers,E who thrust themselves before
and crowd out the invited company. cheating
Babel in voices, and an election riot In con-
fusion, Thus the whole occasion is marred,
the friends disappointed and crushed, and the
hallowed house as iirreverently treated as q
bear garden. This disgraceful practice should
cease. 1t is notifying enough to know so
many people are 50 thoughtless or i'll bred as
to 90 and crowd out the invited guests at all
but, if they will 60, at least let them have res
pect enough for God, in whose temple they
are, to observe the peace and decorum which
should always reign when services are being
performed in His presence. Now, that the
hot season prevails, it is especially improper
to say nothing of the danger to delicate ladies,
to so over crowd and crush on such occasions
1t is remarked that in consequence OF these
things the Eastern custom of requiring the
card at the church door, will be adopted at
many weddings soon to take place. Under the
circumstances, it is wise.
The approach Of the census taker has prompt
ed some journals to bring out Saxe's funny
sketch. which reads
Got any children? the Marshal said
To the lady over the Rhine;
The lady shook her Saxon curls,
And civilly answered, Nein.
Husband, of course? the Marshal said

Shameful Proceedings at the Funeral of
George Peabody.
A Pnctn11 aOrraSnnOdaDt of tba Thipo oO


Journal says:
T happened to be one of the unfortunate
newspaper men pressed into the service to
assist in burying he late George Peabody,
and while at Portland my moral conscious
ness was shocked at some things witnessed
in that city. 1t was some time before I
could realize that it was funeral occasion,
and that George Peabody was the most
thoroughly buried man on this continent.
At the Falmouth Hotel, where everybody
of any consequence stopped, the three
days doings reminded one of preparations
for the arrival Of some great potentate, in
stead of funeral doings. Persons from as
far as Baltimore were present to assist in
the obsequies. ANY man who had his eyes
open might have guessed that Prince Ar
thur, or some such scion, were in town,
Judging from the weaknesses that were aired
by the British and American officers, and
their friends, about the hotel, and especial
lY in the upper rooms.
There was no Mine law in Portlandame
that tIme as the EN- apty bottles that ats
fling down the broad stairway in battalion
to the cellar below testified, and while the
officers of the war vessels of both nations
fraternized over the sparkling wine or the
dormant whisky, the memory of the dead
philanthrOpist was forgotten IN the self
praise of q Mutual Admiration Society.
Nor did this scandalous conduct end here.
Legislative and municipal committees
reveled in orgies that would have done
honor to a gathering of bar-room politi-
clans, and had it not been for the black
border around the tickets, "good for a
ride on the funeral traIn," it would hardly
have been known that the occasion was
one of mourning and even on the train
with the body of George Peabody resting
on a bier, surrounded by squad of United
States troops, the black bottle or the pocket
pistol went the rounds among those spirit
ually inclined; and there were not few OF

have fancied, sometimes, the Bethei-bent beam
That trembled TO earth in the p2triarch's dream
Was ladder of Song in the wilderness rest,
From the pillow Of stone to the blue Of the Blest,
And the angels descending to dwell with US here,
''0ld Hundred and 'Corinth,'' and ''China, and
"Mear.
All the hearts are not dead, not under the sod,
That those breaths can blow open to Heaven and
All, ssiiver Street leads by bright, golden road;
0, it is not the hymns that in harmony flowed;
But those sweet humored psalms in the oid-fash-
To the girls girls that that sang atohe girls that sang air
stLet as sing in his praise the minister said,
ALI the psalm-books at once futtered open at
summed their dotted wings in the words that he
read.
While tie leader Ieaped into the tune just ahead,
And politely picked ont the key note with fork,
And the vicious old vol went growing along
At the heels of the girls in the rear OF the song
Ineed not a wing-bid no genii to come,
With wonderful web from Arabian loom,
When the world was in rhythm, and life was It's
Where the streams Of the years flowed up noiseless
That across it there foated the song of a sparrow;
For a sprig of green carroway carries me there,
To the old village church and the old village choir
when clear Of the floor my feet slowly swung,
And timed the sweet praise Of the song as they
Till the gI0ry aslant from the fternoon sun
Seemed the rafters OF godih Gods temple begun
You may smile at the nasals Of old Deacon Brown
Who followed by scent till he ran the tune down;
And the dear sister Green, with more goodnes
than grace,
Rose and fell on the tunes she stood In her place.
And where Coronation exultngly flows,
Tried to reach tie high notes on the tips Of her
toes
To the land of the leal they went with their song
Where the choir and the chorus together belong
O. be lifted, ye Gatesl Letme hear them again
Blessed song, blessed Sabbath. forever, amen!
