ABrilljant wedding.

| POINTER, OF lh4S place. on 1ueSQal
evening last. The high socia
standing Of the parties, the elegan
and refined connections Of tlTl
bride, together with her own grea
claims upon all admirers Of tru'
womanly loneliness, invested the
occasion with unusual interest anc
created that pleasant huttering O
authorization among the ton which
constitutes such pleasant divertise
ment in the annals Of fashionable
life. It was well known that othel
towns than Pulaski would contrib
ute their quota Of beauty and chiv-
! airy to add lustre to this interesting
epoch in the lives of a gallant gen
tleman and a lovely woman, and an
ticipation in consequence stood on
tip-toe, eagerly awaiting the first
glimpse Of the hymenial torch
On Tuesday the bridegroom arriv-
ed with those Of his friends and at
teniants who were chosen from 9TH
er places, and at the same time sew
eral Of the bridesmaids, whose
charms Of person and Of mind en-
title them to universal admiration,
reached the city. The marriage
ceremony was announced at P. N.
at the Methodist Church, and as
may be supposed, a large crowd
gathered there before that hour to
witness it. The bridal party did
not arrive at the church until 9
O'Clock, when they formed in pro-
cession and advanced up the aisle
to the altar, their entrance being
accompanied by q beautiful we'd
ding march from the church organ,
performed by an accomplished lady
musician Of this place. After the
proper positions had been assumed,
very impressive and eloquent cere-
mony was performed by Rev. FELIX
R. Hill, of Murfreesboro, who, in
the name of his divine Master, sane
toned and perfected a union that
love had already hallowed. After
the ceremony at the church the bri-
dial party were conveyed to the ele-
giant residence of the brides mother
where a large and brilliant assem-
blage Of guests were gathered to Of
fer their congratulations. Howev-
er fluent in language or graphic
in description might be our pen, it
would prove a feeble instrument in
painting the loneliness Of the scene
that greeted the eye of those who
this matrimonial carnival.
The elegant parlars and halls of the
were crowded to over
flowing with beautiful women,
whose queenly forms and dazzling
eyes formed the inspiration Of a
picture that passes athwart the
lives of US all but seldom, and then
like ravishing dream,
Born to fade
And yield its beauty with the morn"
