A CONNECTICUT WEDD1NG.-A correspondent,
writing from Guilford, Conn.,, describes recent
wedding in that vicinity, which for Arcadian
simplicity, resembles the old times of the Pill
grim Fathers. He says: "Young John Hub
bard was married last week to lady of Stony
Creek. He brought his bride from the home of
her fathers in his own farm wagon, arriving at
the sufficiently romantic hour of o'clock in
the morning. The bride prepared her lords
breakfast the next morning by five o'clock, in
the apartments built on the homestead - with
house north of St. Augustine - for the accom-
mediation of the young folks. The weather
being fine for hay, John was soon down near
Sachem's Head, about four miles away, getting
his heaps ready for carting. After the break
fast-dishes were put away and the housework
was done, our lady, with some friends, followed
the groom to the hay fields, where they had a
nice picnic party. Toward evening the new
Mrs. John Hubbard was driven homo in tri-
umph on the top of the load of sweet fresh
hay"

E0oo8 oxE.-Ihe Madison Courier tells this
of revenue officer who was sent into the illicit
whiskey distilling district in Kentucky. He
knew illicit distilling was going on, but he
could get no basis to work from. Coming to an
Irishman who was tolerably drunk, the officer
tapped him on the shoulder, and said, "My
man, do you want to make ten dollar?" ais it
ten dollars?" said Pat, "sure and I do."-
"Then" said the officer, "show me "a private
STILL" "Pll do the same; follow me, yer Honor"
The officer followed across lots and fields to the
camp of a company of soldiers that had been
sent there to aid the revenue officers. The SOL
diers were in line-dress parade. "Do you see
that redheaded mani" "Yes" replied the Off
Ger. "He is" said Pat, "my brother: He's
corporal after while, but he is "a private still"
"Ten dollars gone and no illicitwhiskey found

to his hotel.

.. GhAxr AT Lone BnAxoH.--The
sls.,g - eSrfes.enn ert of tho Tribune
writes: Here his manner Of living is noted
only for its lack of extravaganza and ostenta-
ton His life is as quiet and unprctending
as that of the most modest cottager. His cot
tage is by no means the grand affair that was
too often described during the heat Of politi-
cal contest. 1t sets back from the road some
distance, and is of asubdued order OF architect
ure, a sort of mixture of English villa and Swiss
chalet Its colors are dingy, and its general ap-
pearance by no means as attractive and costly
as is generally supposed. Nevertheless, while
it would be taken for the residence of quiet
gentleman of position and taste, it does nota
pear to be unbecoming the President whose life
here is so quiet and unobtrusive. Nobody
would know, from his manner of living and his
personal intercourse with the citizens of the
Branch, that General Grant occupies higher
station in the world than his neighbors. What
ever may be said against Gen. Grant and his
administration of the Government, it cannot
be said that his manner of living at Long
Branch is unbecoming or ostentatious. The
family of the Presidenthave placed themselves
upon the same social level as other cultivated
and respectable families There is no exclu-
sion whatever. The carriage of Mrs. Grant is
frequently seen before the cottages OF other res
idents, and there is no indication of differ
ence in worldly station. When it is remember
ed that the rigid social etiquette of Washing
ton precludes the families of the President and
Vice President from returning calls, it will be
seen that the position which the Presidents
family have seen fit to take here is one that
cannot but be approved as the most sensible
and judicious that could be followed.

so FORTH And so ON.

This morning dull, and betokened day
Unsuited to curing and carting of hay;
So Stephen bethought him to take trip down,
And bring this thing and that and the other from town
He harnessed his horse, and proceeded to 60 forth,
With pail Of pale butter, eggs, berries, &c.
Now it happened that Stephen &c. came down
On the day that the show was to enter the town;
And into the village he CHANGED to come forth,
AS the caravan came into town from the north;
"a wondrous collection they purpose to show forth)
Elks Elephants, Monkeys, Bears, Tigers, &c.
And Stephen arrived opportuney ween,
For never had Stephen an elephant seen;
So he with old sorrel fetched up at the fence,
To see without paying the twenty five cents
And came the creatures uncouthly and SLOW forth
With tusks, and with trunks, blankets, ribbons &c.
But scared at the sight, the SCENT the sound,
Old sorrel turned quickly and shortly around;
And in turning so quickly and shortly about,
The wagon turned over, and Stephen turned out
And into the gutter the berries did flow forth,
Together with Stephen, eggs, butter, &c.
Quoth Stephen aloud, as he on his legs,
A fig for the berries, &C., and eggs;
But henceforth never can say it, of course,
That Pve not seen the elephant, the horse,'
And back to the homestead old sorrel did go on,
Leaving wagon, and Stephen, &c. and so on.

BEAUTY OF OLD PEoPLE.-Men and women
make their own beauty, or their own ugliness.
Lord Lytton speaks of a man who So3 ugier
than he had any business to be-" and, if he
could but read il, every human being carries
his life in his face, and is good looking, or the
reverse, as that life has been good or evil. On
our features the fine chisels of thought and
emotion are eternally at work. Beauty is not
the monopoly of blooming young men and of
white and pink maids. There is slow grow
ing beauty, which only come to perfection in
old age. Grace belongs to no period of life, and
goodness improves the longer it exists.

TERRoRs OF PHARMAoY.-The Boston Globe
meditates in this vein: We see it stated that
there are fourteen thousand drug stores in the
United States, and that the number of persons
employed in the various branches Of the drug
business is estimated at one hundred and thr-
ty five thousand. Goodness, gracious! What
dreadful thoughts does this piece of statistics
give rise to. Imagine the fearful quantity of
pills, castor oil, rhubarb epson salts and mag
nesia the country daily indulges in. What a
perplexng array of corks, walls, seillitz pow
der boxes, ugly white bottles, with glass stop
pers and gold labels, pale clerks, sponges and
cologne bottles, dart before the minds eye in
connection with fourteen thousand drug stores.
What would be the effect of exhibiting, all at
once, those mysterious bottles containing red
or green liquids that are seen in the windows
of these establishments What a perfect Hi
maylaya of pills there would be, if all those
stores contain were to be emptied on some vast
plain and piled up. What vast cemetery
could be filled by the bodies of those who have
been druged to death by the blunders of one
hundred and thirty thousand people, said to be
concerned in the trade The party who is so
fond of calculating useless statistics ought to
be set to work on this subject at once, as it Of
fers him a splendid field for the exercise of his
ingenuity. Suppose he were to begin by cal
culating what the effect of concentrating the
strength of all the ammonia in these fourteen
thousand drug stores would be upon that
thoughtless mortal who should venture to re-
move the stopper and put his nose to the mouth
of the bottle.

A BUSINESS CHAP.-Tbere is an air of business
in the following which one cannot fail to admire.
1t is from a Detroit merchant whose wife died
the other day "Dear sir : take my pen in
hand to let you know that am well, but my
dear wife, insured for five thousand dollars in
your company, is no more. She died to-day.
Her policy is No. -. l can truly say that she
was fond wife and good mother. I have the
doctors certificate, so that there will be no trou
Dbie about the policy. She was sick only a short
time but suffered much Do you give a check
in advance, or must wait sixty days for the
money"

MS~A Peoria citizen claims TO have stone
that Gen. Washington threw at a wood-pecker
on his fathers cherry tree. Perhaps he has; but
as relic of the Father of his Country, it sinks
into insignifcance in comparison to the one own
ed by NOrristown man. The latter has the
'le" George Couldn't tell' about the cherry
tree. He can tell it often. .-Norristown Herald

@-A Baptist paper in Ohio was sent for nine
years to subscriber who never paid cent for
it. The other day the newspaper was returned
to the patient and long-suffering publisher with
the affecting pencil note on its margin "Gone
TO better world" The editor is a very pious
man, but it is reported that his faith is terribly
shaken in regard to the accuracy of the informa-
ton.

DEED OF JOHN ADAMs.-Among the good
deeds of President John Adams was the deed
Of seventy nine acres of land to found an acad
emy in his native town of Quincy. This was
followed by a gift of eighty acres more upon
certain conditions. The language of the docu-
ment is interesting:
"Provided that when the objects mentioned
in the former deed, are obtained, a stone school
house shall be erected over the cellar which
was under the house anciently built by the Rev.
Mr.. John Hancock, the father of John Han
cock, that great, generous, disnterested, boun-
tiful benefactor Of his country, once President
of Congress, and afterwards Governor of this
State, to whose great exertions and unlimited
sacrifices this nation is so deeply indebted for
her independence and present prosperity, who
was born in this house; and which house was
afterwards purchased and inhabited by the rev.

pastor of this congregation; which house was

the regal head bowed itself upon his expansive
shirt bosom, to-hide her maidenly bushes, per-

Trembling Willis terror stricken eyes followed
the ceremony, his pallid lips parting to emit a
heartfelt groan at every response, and his heart
sank several degrees below zero as he felt how
fully his fears were realized and how vain
'twould be to struggle longer against his dread
fate.
At length the first couple were made one. and,
after the usual congratulations, the gay party
crowded around the newly betrothed lovers. All
questions were answered by Marier, and then the
twain were standing up before the minister ere
Will recovered from his bewiderment. In the
responses he managed tolerably, owing to the

THE GENTLEMEN or VIENNA.

The gentlemen among the weather. class Of
Vienna are remarkably fine looking, being gen.
orally tall, well-formed and graceful in their
movements They also dress with excellent
taste and elegance, and are wholly different in
appearance from the American idea of German
characteristics. Not one of your fair readers
would be able to decide from their appearance
whether they were Germans or Boston Yankees,
except that they have more ruddy compilations,
and are generally more robust in their physi-
cal development. The officers of the army of
whom there are thousands in Vienna, are sell
dom less than six feet in height, and are, as a
body the finest formed men that can be found
in any part of the globe. They dress in tight
fitting uniforms, and, as we once before remark
ed, move along the streets with the air of men
who know themselves to be objects of admira-
tion At the Reidhof to night about thirty of
them were taking their suppers, and every one
of them would be classed in New York or Bal
timore as handsome men, of more than ordina-
ry good physical development, fine form and fea
ture, and all the other requisites of perfect
manhood. The men in the lower stratas of life
are, however, neither handsome, we'll formed,
nor graceful in their motions. A considerable
portion of them are, on the contrary, short and
ungainly in appearance, with the exception of
those who come from Hungary, from which
country comes the brains, muscles, and sinews
of Austria, as well as most of the food consum-
ed by the people of Vienna.
