Married.,

On yesterday afternoon, at 2:3O P. H., by
Rev. Lindsey Cottrell, about two miles
from the city, on the southside of the river,
at the residence of the parson, Mr.. William
Huenerkopf to Miss Emma Allison, all of
this city.
This wedding partook something of a
romantic nature. 1t seems that the fond
parent of the lovely bride felt loath to part
with his darling daughter, and could not
think of giving his consent, but
''Two souls with but a single thought.
Two hearts that beat as one'
could not be kept apart by the stern edict
of an over fond father, and an elopement
was planned and successfully carried out.
The second chapter in the romance is that
the bridegroom is a shoemaker and the
bride daughter of a shoemaker, two or
three shoemakers assisted in the elOpe-
ment while another shoem aker took the
party across the river, where they soon ar
rived at the residence of Rev. Lindsey Cot
trell, who by-the-by is also shoemaker,
and united the two loving hearts, howev
er, without wax end In the evening, a
party of the bride and bridegroom's shoe
maker friends assembled at the residence
of Mr.. Grimaldi, another shoemaker, who
played mine host admirably and refresh
ments were served in abundance. The oc-
casion was very pleasant one.

Blowing Great Gums"

This not being naval station it was not
possible for "Old Probabilities" to blow
''great guns" in 'these parts' yesterday,
though on terrible 'breeze,n as every
body knows. Things Were scattered
around promiscuously but the extreme
humidity of the mOsphere-induced by
the surcharging of the "wet bulbn in
charge of the signal officer at the Univer-
sity, or some other equally lucid reason
prevented the appearance of many ladies
on the streets or more than one accident
might have occurred. AS it is, one is re-
ported as having been blown across the
street into young mans arms, but as our
news gatherer was not present this is not
vouched for. But the wind did blow hard,
though not quite equal to the storm de-
scribed by the Yankee skipper at sea, where
the gale was so terrific that the sailors had
each to hold the others hair on.
A raft of lumber belonging TO Renshaw
& Hacker, broke loose some distance above
the Pork House with the latter gentleman
on it, who was rescued from his perilous
position by Jeems Flenniken at some risk,
with the loss of his hat.

FROM LOCKWOOD.

Weather and WOrk-'Narrow Gauge
Sudden Deaih-Tcmperance- Breaker.
The beautiful spring weather has set
everything going again. The most Won
derful activity pervades every department
of business, and constant additions are be-
ing made to the already large population
of the place.
The marrow gauge" from lockwood to
the river is nearly completed, and the cars
are running over the larger portion of the
road. My first impressions of narrow
gauge roads was unfavorable; but since
witnessing the actual working of this one,
my opinion has changed. fA
Wehad quite a sudden death in town on
Saturday evening. An old colored man
fell backward from wagon on which he
was riding, breaking his neck.
Temperance matters are in flourishing
condition here. The Council of the Uni
ted friends of Temperance recently organ
lied here, numbers fifty-three, and will
receive large accessions in the future.
A proposition has been made to Rev. DR..
Breaker to locate here, which it is thought
he will accept. The proposition is backed
with certain and substantial advantages,
which are not to be disregarded. M.
