Marriage of Fanny Kemble's Daughter
From the london Oneen.

The marriage of the Hon. and Rev.
James Wentworth Leigh, son of the
first Lord Leigh, and brother of the
present Baron, with Miss Frances But
Ter, daughter of the late Pierce Butler,
ESQ.,, of Buffers Island, Georgia, United
States, America, was recently'celebrated
at St. Thomas Church, Portman square.
The brides dress was white silk, almost
covered by Brussels lace, founces and
the Brussels lace veil. She was given
away by Admiral Turner, of the United
States navy. There were seven brides
maids-the Hon. Agnes Leigh (niece of
the bridegroom), Miss Caroline Adder
ley, Miss Wadsworth, Miss Pringle, Miss
Low, Miss Leveson Cover. and Miss
Henrietta Cramm. They wore white
tarlatan dresses, made en- pompddour, with
plated flounces of the same, covering
the front breadth and reaching to the
waist. Long trains fell at the back and
were caught down with lunches of rose
buds. They had wreaths of roses and
tulle wells, and the bridegroom present
ed each with crystal locket bearing
the monogram of the bridegroom in
colored enamels, crossed by a scroll, on
which was Frances" the Christian
name of the bride. The service was
performed by the Ven. Lord Saye and
Sele, Archdeacon of Hereford, brother
in-law of the bridegroom, Lord Berners'
recent death causing the Rev. III. P.
Cholmondeley (another brother-in-law)
to be unavoidably absent Mr.. Arthur
Sullivan presided at the organ, and
Mendelssohn's Wedding March"
pealed through the church as the
company departed-wedding favors
having been distributed while the sig
natures were being made in the vestry.
The bridegroom is the vicar of Stone
leigh, where great preparations are be-
ing made to receive the newly welded
pair on their return. The parishioner's
wedding gift was massive silver ink
stand. The Hon. Mr.. and Mrs. James
Wentworth Leigh left town early in the
day for Titsey Park, Surrey, the seat of
Mr.. Levison Cover.

The perils of the London Streets.

The London Daily Nea0s says: The
battle of the streets RACES on from year
to year with scarcely varying fortune.
In the conflict between unarmed foot
passengers and the doubly-armed drivers,
the weaker combatants are ridden down
without mercy. Counting up the losses
in killed and wounded last year in the
streets which lie outside the city, we ar
rive at the terrible aggregate of 2,043.
This is an average of about thirty
people every week, or six persons day
for the six busy days of the week and
three for each Sunday. Of these 2,043
victims, 124 were killed, and 1919
wounded. AS to the engines of warfare
by which their destruction is accom-
plished, the return published by the
Chief Commissioner of Police gives some
statistics which carry out the impression
which Londoners derive from observa-
ton. The cabs do good deal of dam
age, but they are not the worst offend
ers. They killed ii people and wounded
429 during last year. The omnibuses
killed II and hurt IS; while carriages
and broughams killed but two and in
jured 243. Heavy carts, wagons, and
vans killed 63 and wounded 462. But
the worst offenders of all the light carts
driven by tradesmen's boys and shop
men. These carts ran over 636 people
during the year, of whom 27 were
killed. Nearly one-third of the So
called accidents in the streets are, there
fore, due to these carts.
These terrible figures do not include
the most densely crowded parts of Lon
don. The city has its own catalogue of
accidents, which do something to swell
the aggregate, though the city is per-
haps the safest part of London. 1t is
surely time that something was done to
stop this fearful havoc. IF two thou
sand people fell every year in riot and
insurrection, the whole world be horri-
fied but more than two thousand fall
in the chronic strife of overbearing
drivers with weak, or feeble, or careless
walkers, and we take it as thing of
course. Suppose the Russian plan were
introduced, and cartwhich injured
foot passenger was forfeited, would the
figures of street accidents long tell so
terrible story?

can hear voices calling upon you to be-
ware. Heed them, Matte, before it be
forever too late. They do not chide al
ways, and you may open memory's book
in after years and read page here, and
call the hours very, very happy.
Many years have come and gone, and
merrily the bells ring out on the frosty,
air the advent of 1870. Children of
happy homes shout gleefully from open
doors as they receive mysterious bun
dies from "papa." The little orphan
hurries shiveringly by with tears in her
eyes, as she remembers that she is to
have no "New Years gift" The snow
falls in driving cloud, and men, with
hair "bleached before its time" hurry
toward their happy homes. Peace, joy,
and love seem written on every face
no, here is one passing with anything
but a happy look. With bent form and
bowed head he hurries along as fearful
of being recognized. He has no "gifts"
for loved ones, nor looks as though he
thought of them. He passes into back
street and enters small mean-looking
house. A woman rises to meet him,
handing him chair, as he staggers to
the fire.

great deal to suffer, and I would do any
thing, if only could, to throw off this
miserable life, but it is too late-too
late !"-American Odd FelloO.

Action OF WATER CLAss.-In a late

ACTION OF WATER CLAss.-In late
paper by Fluckiger, upon certain re-
actions of water-glass, some important
technical applications are suggested as
the result of the chemical relationship
dwelt upon. Thus, many of the prac-
tical applications of this substance de-
pends especially upon the separation OF
silicic acid, and are more efficient in
proportion to the amount and complete
ness of this separation. If, therefore,
surfaces which are to be silicifed are
coated alternately with water-glass and
solution of common salt, they will
ultimately be found to possess a harder
and more uniform exterior. By first
satrlrating stone or wood with asolution
of sal-ammoniac, or common salt, and,
adding the water-glass before the former
application is completely dry, the result
will be found to be very satisfactory.

Down in Maryland they have col
ored man whom they style the African
Fire King Recently he gave an exhi-
bitten of his "powers" to a select COM
pany. After applying red hot shovel
to the bottom of one of his feet, without
making any impression on him, also
licking the shovel, still red hot, with his
tongue, without even drying the saliva
in his mouth, and taking a red hot an
thracite coal from stove without
scorching his hand or fingers in which
he held it, he asked if there were unbe-
levers present. One individual stating
that he remained unconvinced, the Fire
King, as the story goes, put shovel IN
the stove and partially filled it with shot,
and when the shot got pretty not ne
stirred them with his naked fingers iii
the lead had melted. He then took the
shovel in his right hand and poured the
hot melted lead in his left hand, and
then poured the burning solution into
his mouth, kept it there till il cooled,
and spit it out in lump. After this
latter performance the "unbeliever" ex-
pressed himself entirely satisfied. The
Fire King said 'that was only $40 per-
formance; if they would make him up
$50 he would show them something
worth seeing"

A Chinese Translation.

The Chinese are gradually making
progress, and will in time, no doubt,
overcome the complicated difficulties of
the English language. Choy Awah is a
promising pupil in Sunday school at
Washington, and has lately exercised
his talents by making a translation of
the well known parable, to be found in
the twenty-fourth chapter of Matthew.
The story is Englished after the follow
ing fashion: "The kingdom like ten
girls; never marry; they bring some
lanterns; come out till some new mar
ried man come that way. Have got five

HONEY BEES were recently transmitted
by mail from distant point to Lancas-
ter county, Pa, in an ingenious manner.
Four holes, about an inch IL circum-
frence each, were bored with an augur,
in block of wood six inches long, four
inches wide and one inch and quarter
thick. In each of these holes a queen
bee and six males, the foundation of a
colony or hive, were confined by wire
screen placed over the aperture.

A CINCINNATI dentist, who had be-
come nervous by frequent burglaries in
his vicinity, was somewhat startled
recently by having a man come daily
at the same hour each evening and SIT
on his door step. He finally suggested
that if it would be all the same to him,
he would be pleased to have him divide
his attentions and sit on some neigh
boris doorstep for while. "But it
wouldn't be the same," shouted the
visitor in return, "nor anything like it.
