our city, and no doubt in short time

where else. On last Sunday the Cum
berland Presbyterian minister announ-
ced to his congregation that Capt. Steele
and Miss Sarah Russell would be united
in the holy bonds of matrimony in that
church on Tuesday morning, at 81
o'clock. This custom of thus publishing
the banns is. a social innovation in this
country also, and we approve it. Before
the appointed hour the church was pref
ty well filled with beautiful ladies and
some good looking men, who waited impa-
tiently the arrival of the bride and bride
groom They came at last, however,
heralded by delightful strains of music
from the organ by Mrs. P. They
had no attendants, and the ceremony
was short, which was performed by Rev
Mr. Caruthers, who also said a few beau
tiful things of the sacred rite ofmarriage
After the ceremony, the minister gave
the bride beautiful boquet, and the
bridegroom large fragrant magnolia
which were rendered by Miss NJ. ID. In
the vestibule the happy pair received the
congratulations of their friends, and
then went 10 the deyot and started North
on bridal trip.
