s.rin Wedding, at Rochester.

New Years in addition to its usual
festivities, gave to many of the people
of this place the pleasure Of attending a
| tin wedding.
January list. 1862, Mr. J. p Stock
well and Miss En- Gleason We're mar
rcd by the Rev. ]. a. Sherburn. JanU-
airy 1st, 1912, their tin, wedding was
celebrated at their residence in Rocbos-
ter.
The occasion brought together their
relatives and friends to the number Of
fourscore: and one seldom sees more
social and happy company.
After the usual congratulations the
attention of the guests was at once at
tractcd by q natural and laudable Curios-
ity to the large collection of tin ware
which had been received by the happy
couple as tin wedding presents. There
were all kinds Of articles of tin in great
prOfusion, too numerous to mention;
but the presents were not all tin there
was quite a sprinlling Of glass ware. A
splendid sewing machine and seventeen
dollars in greenbacks.
Ea"ly in the evening it was whispered
around that there was to be a real we'd
ding Precisely at eight O'Clock, Mr.
KaFeS p. Gleason and Miss Lille Cole
Doth of Boston, Mass were ushered
into the parlor where Rev. J. a. Sher-
burn performed the marriage ceremony.
mony A. soon rs quiet was restored,
after introducing Mr.. and Mrs. Gleason
to the company, the Rev. MI Shcrbun
imprcssivcly and feclingly delivered the
following poem:
Just ten years this very dag.
stood before me, side by side,
This pair; youthful, fair and gay
Manly room, and blushing bride.
Firmly clasping hands, true
Promised each to be for life.
Doing W ell and meaning to
Duties, husband of and wife.
Happy New Years, ten have dowIr
Since that one so truly DleSt
When two hands were Joined in one
AND TWO names We're one confessed
Busy time has been, the while
Change on change has quickly come
Growing life with fortunes smile
tlOUdlng it in SOmbcr gloom.
But, tonight, we came with JOY.
And our happy greetings give,
Change does not these bonds DESTROY.
Neither may it while You live.
Not forgetful of Gods word.
Fruitful be, and people earth:
"Olive plants around the board
Gather, filling home with mrth
On that happy wedding day,
Crowd nor witnesses were seen.
On this anniversary,
Come they, gliding it with tin.
Modest and without pretense
Every day life like it is,
Yet is mixed with common SENSE.
Meeting life'S necessities. f
This enjoy and live to see
Crystal, silver, golden too.
Clearer far, and richer be,
Festive days to each ofyou.
Happy New Year all we say
Emphasizing it with tin.
Happy here, and when away.
Happy may we meet again.
Earthly bonds viii sundered be
And all earthly ties be riven
Sweet the thought which come TO me
OF reunions pure in heaven
Each in garments washed and white.
In the blood of Calvary's Lamb,
Pure with beauty as the light,
Bearing signet and new name.

YOUNG AND RISING GENERA

IN THE

The vegetative powers of life are strong,
but in a few years how often the palhd hue,
the lack-lustre eyes and emaciated form,
and the impossibility ofapplication to men
tai effort, show their baneful influence. 1t
soon becomes evident to the observer that
some depressing influence is checking the
development of the body. Consumption is
talked of, and perhaps the youth is remov-
ed from school and sent into the country
This is one of the worst movements. Re-
moved from ordinary diversions OF the
ever-changing scenes of the city, the pow
ers of the body, too much enfeebled to
give zest to healthful and rural exercise,
thoughts are turned inwardly upon them
selves.
If the patient be a female the approach
of the meases is looked forswith anxiety,
as the first symptom in which nature Is TO
show her saving power in difusing the
circulation and visiting the cheek with the
bloom of health. Alasl increase of appetite
has grown by what it fed on. The energies
of the system are Frustrated, and the whole
economy is deranged. The beautiful and
wonderful period in which body and mind
undergo so fascinating a change from child
to woman, is looked for in vain. The
parents heart bleeds in anxiety, and
fancies the grave but waiting for its victim.

SUICIDE. -Frank P. Proud, who for
merly resided in Burlington, committed
suicide at North Pownal, the other day,
by hanging. 1t is thought that domestic
troubles, and the idea that people were
clown on him." had deranged him.
Proud will be remembered as a one
armed soldier, who was tried and fined
for the writing of certain anonymous
letters and placards, threatening the de-
struction of the lumber yards, in the fall
of 1870. He was considered by many
more weak than criminal in that matter.

AN APPEAL TO REASON.


Health would be much more carefully
guarded than it is at present, and the av-
erage of human life heightened by many
years, if common sense and the light of ex-
perience were accepted by the universal
public as their medical monitor and guide.
The true philosophy of health is simple. 1t
consists in RETAINING from indulgences
and imprudences which impair the vital
forces, and in supplying any deficiency in
vital power and constitutional vigor that
may exist, by invigorating and Alternative
treatment To reinforce and regulate a
feeble system, and to prevent a more Wig
orous physique from yielding to unhealthy
and debilitating influences, Hostetter's
| stomach Bitters is unquestionably the
most potent of all vegetable purifiers AS
a stimulant, it is the purest ever admins
tered in medical practice; as a tonic and
stomachic, the most infallible; as an anti
bilious agent, the safest and surest, and as
an aperient and regulating medicine, mild
and painless, yet irresistible. 1t is a pro-
lection against disease of every kind, and
all seasons, and is particularly efficacious
as q means of fOrearming the system
against the ailments generated by a raw,
damp, ungenial atmosphere. Hence its
great value as winter tonic and inYigOr-
ant. No one predisposed to indigestion.
biliousness, constipation, rheumatism or
nervous headache, should ever be without
this Vital Elixir. As a certain class of coun-
try dealers are very anxious to dose their
customers with ''lOcal bitters," of worth
less or perniciOuS character, which they
represent to be equal or superior to the
great national tonic. the public is hereby
forewarned against their tricks of trade

An Expensive Railway.

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad ex-
poets to open in June direct line from
Washington to Point of Rocks, reducing
the time to Pittsburgh and Cincinnati
two or three hours, and avoiding all
changes and transfers. This piece of
road, though only AZ miles long, was
estimated to cost 100000; and one
single mile upon it, near the mouth OF
the Monocacy river, has already cost
nearly 100000. The country between
arlington and Harper's Ferry con-
sists of a series of bold, almost noun
famous hills, which are crossed trans
yersely by streams emptying, INTO the
Potomac and this road is TO leap every
stream on a high and costly bridge, ana
then plunge Immediately into ne heavy e0g
rock. tunnel. In one place, lOO,oOV
cubic yards of rock and earth had to be
moved. Some of the cuts are 90 feet
deep. and many of the ennbankments
go feet high. The cuts are only l8 feet
wide at the bottom, and only ten men
can work in each end Of the cut,-in
some cases progressing 10 more than 20
feet in one month.
