18th Of November, 1878, in the 67th year of his
age. To say that Colonel Clay brook was good

attributes he enjoyed season Of supremacy
over all the bar in the Northern Neck, and that
alone is fame enough for any unaspiring man I;

unmalicious, genial, and hospitable. He has
left friends behind him, with no kindred blood

weddIng Eve IN germany.

There is, perhaps, no land where one has
better opportunity to observe old customs
than in Germany. We wonder sometimes
how she has contrived to whirl through
the giddy maze Of time with her sister
lands and yet get no more shaken up than
she has. One of these old customs is the
observance of the evening before wedding.
1t ID called "Polterabend.n The verb " to
poiteru means to make q great noise, and the
evening rightly takes its name from the word.
It is q proverb here that "the more pot
sherds the more luck.u Therefore the
friends of the bride collect all the old
earthenware which is hors du combat for
household warfare, and bring it and
dash it against the house where the
bride lives. Old cracked plates, saucers,
earthen pots, handleless cups, and nose
less pitchers close their crippled earthly
career by the frantic plunge at the foot
of the altar Of Hymen. 1t takes but q
short time for the news Of the sspolterabendp
to reach the ears of the street boys,
and then the work goes on merrily, for
when could boy nature ever resist so glori-
GUS an opportunity to smash something !?
One living in the house, or even in the
vicinity, feels as If Joshua with his armed
band were comprising the premises for the
seventh time, and as If the walls might fall
at any moment, or as if that mythical
'bearn had at last really got into the
"china Shops" SO continuous is the crash.
The family are obliged to have these tokens
Of good luck removed as soon as it is light
on the following morning, or be fined,
as they obstruct the sidewalk It
often requires horse and cart to
do it. While this strange ceremony, is
taking place outside the house, the friends
Of the lady have gathered within, No
invitations are given, but the house is
thrown open, and all the acquaintances are
expected to come. Each guest brings
some gift, and the presents are placed on .
table as they accumulate for the admiration
of the assembled company. 1t is GUS
tomary to have some short dramatic piece
or pieces acted. These are usually pre-
pared for the occasion, and weave in many
q sly hit at the habits or tastes of the devo
ted pair, or hints at the peculiar incidents
Of the courtship.
