A Ro, NTIC WEDDING /

A Ro. IA MTG WEDDING Morris
a. Statha IN and Emma Elrod were
united in the holy bonds of matri-
mony on T ue>'day evening, July 2Sth,
by Judge E. c. Southworth. The
romance pa rt of the above event con-
sists of the manner and place at
which the knot was tied. The brides
father and Lnother and the bride
groom were G n route from Bishop
Creek, Inyo county, CAL, travelling
in a covered wagon - regular emil
grant oiftfit,--bo und for Eureka. ON
arrival attthis place, it appears that
the Young 'coupic's attachment for
each other reached fever heat, and
the best remedy was resorted to,
namely: Joining together as one
flesh; which ceremo ny was perform
ed in stately manner by the Rev.
f. C. Southwerth. The marital rites
took place on the fiat west OF town,
in front of the wagon in which the
party was travelling, all hands fac
ing a full NOON just emerging from
obscurity over the high mountain
east of town. In addition to the
usual solemn VOWS required of per-
sons similarly situated, the bride
groem gave utterance to the follow
ing beautiful lines, in manner cred
liable to himself:
Lady, by yonder blessed moon swear,
That tips with silver all these sagebrush tops.
To which the bride responded:
80, swear not by the moon, the inconstsnt
moon,
That monthly changes in her circled orb,
Lest that thy love prove likewise variable"
Immediately following reciting the
above lines, and after the Judges
questions were answered in the
affirmative, the happy couple EN-
braced each other with will, seal
ing the legal proceedings with long
and loud kiss. Judge Southworth
became somewhat abashed, not be-
cause he had been guilty of commit
ting a wrong, but because he had
been cheated out Of the first kiss
from the bride. The marriage was
altogether an impromptu affair,
without the usual pomp and style
incident to like happy moments,
nevertheless the two hearts beat III
unison, with mountains of joy paint
ed and mapped out foy their future
happiness. The party started out
the following morning in their hum
BILE conveyance to their destination,
with no external indication that any
thing unsual had transpired the
night before. May kind Provi-
dence smile on the romantic couple
through ife'srough sands.-Belnlont

THE ARIZONA DELEGArE.-- Nc
people of Arizona are searching for
the proper man to represent them as
delegate in Congress, to succeed Mo
Cormick. A Democratic Terrlt"riai
Convention placed John A. Rush IN
nomination, but he declines to make
the race, alleging that "the assqr'
, ance of success is not OF such a
, character as to warrant him in max
ing the personal sacrifice necessary
to be made" John Smith and II
s. Stevens are more sanguine. They
severally announce in the Mtne'
their intention of running as inde
pendent candidates for the position.

[FoR THE TINES.
MY MOTHER.
Who taught my little feet to stray.
Along the soft and grassy way;
Who taught my infant lips to pray?
My kind and loving mother.
Who when sickness fell my lot,
SO closley watched my little cot:
For days and nights she slumbered nots
My kind and loving mother.
Who ere at night sought my rest,
So closely held me to her breast.
And gave to me her kind caress?
My kind and loving mother.
Who when the radiant God of Day,
Had chased the mists of night away.
Would make me kneel and with me pray?
Ny kind and loving mother.
Who ere went to school each day,
Would hear me all my lessons say,
And instruct me In her gentle way?
My kind and loving mother.
Dear mother although far away,
think of thee each nipht ard day,
And fervently to God pray,
God bless my loving mother.

Secretary Ntas,ton's Death.

What Jerry Black has darkly
limited is now boldly stated in some
of the papers, that Secretary STAN
ton fastened his death, during the
last days of his responding illness,
by a partially successful attempt to
cut his own throat. 1t was one Of
his customs, runs the now extraor-
binary revelation, to be shaved at
home, and the duty was performed
by colored barber who came regu-
larly for the purpose. In Mr.. Stan
toms private apartment stood an
Impoverished shaving chair, and to
this the trusty valet would go at the
appointed time to perform his duty.
Mr.. Stanton had been apparently
failing gradually in health for a
week, and had become so despond-
ent as to almost excite fears of an
alteration of the mind. On the
evening of December %, the color
ed valet called to shave Stanton.
They were left alone in the private
apartment, and Stanton took his
seat in the chair. The barber had
partially finished his task, and lay
ing down The razor on little table
beside Stanton, stepped across the
room for some water. A movement
startled him, and he turned just in
time to see the glistening steel flash
by the barred throat, leaving streak
in its wake. Rushing to the side of
Stanton, the barber caught the raz-
or before another stroke could be
made. He called for help, and in a
few moments there were at the bed
side the Surgeon General, few
trusty attaches of the Government,
and one or two members of the
family. The work had been done,
however, and the life current reach
ed. At 3 O'Clock next morning
Stanton was dead. How well the
secret of his death has been kept
those who read this may know.
Poor DULUTH,-Duluth just now
is dead financially and in a business
way. Hotels have closed; no new
houses are building; many old ones
are for rent; and the windows OF
numerous shops and stores are COW
cred with dust and cobwebs. The
elevators and warehouses are almost
empty; the steamers come in and
60 out with freights that hardly pay
running expenses; no one has any
money; no one does any business !;
but all live on credit and hope for
brighter day. The resent collapse
Of the Northern Pacific Railroad
has demoralized Duluth the price
of wheat is SO low that the eleva-
tors stand idle, and everything and
everybody at the head OF Lake SUI
pe,ior looks seedy and forlorn.
Only the old lake, with its dark,
broad surface, reaching miles and
miles away to the horizon, grand to
the eye beyond all lakes in the
world, is truly prosperous, for it
looks the same to-day that it did
years ago, and as it will continue to
look for thusands more.

THU CABINET.

It is frequently rl'innred that the
President is about to make a change
IN the Cabinet. The officer oftenest
selected for decapitation is Hamilton
Fish. Secretary of State. These ru-
mors are the unf;.iling result of
Washington newsmongers in dull
times. They have cried "wolf" SO
many times that the public will take
Ibnt little stock in any such rumor
|nntil it has been confirmed by actual
change.
The duties of the Cabinet are two
i fold. First, to supervise and direct
the routine work Of the several de-
nartnents of the Executive; second.
/ to consult with and advise the Presi-
dent on all important matters of
State Cabinets have been generally
selected with reference to the latter
function. Men of large experience
I in public affairs and prominent iden-
,ifcation with the principles and pol
icles of the party in power have
usually been assigned to Cabinet pc.
sitions. without reference to special
adaptation to the duties of any par
| licuar portfolio, President Lincoln
! followed the usual custom when he
selected the leader Of the Republican
party for the first position within his
Gift. Governor Seward as Secretary
Of State, S. p. Chase as Secretary Of
the Treasury Department and Ed
ward Bates as Attorney General,
were eminently good selections in
every point Of view, but they were
made on political grounds. WITH
very few exceptions, the post of hon
or in Che Cabinet has been assigned
to recognized party leader, begin
ming with Thomas jefferson and ia.
Guiding Daniel Webster, James Mad
ison. Games Monroe, John Quincy
Adams, Henry Clay, Martin Van
Buren,, John G. Calhoun, James
Buchanan, William L. Marcy and
Lewis Cass. An entire list OF all the
Cabinet officers would include nearly
one hundred names eminent in
American politics prior 10 their selec
tien for Cabinet positions.
Franklin Pierce alone, Of all the
Presidents, eighteen in number, made
on Cabinet changes. His admins.
tration began and closed with the fol
lowing constitutional advisers: w.
l.. Marcy, James Guthrie, Jefferson
Davis, James G. Dobbin, Robert Nc.
Clelland, James Campbell aud Caleb
Cushing The States represented
were: New York, Kentucky, Miss
issippi, North Carolina, Michigan
Pennsylvania and Massachusetts,.
President Grant has departed wide
y from the custom Of his predeces
sors, in that he has not regarded
previous political prominence. Mr.
Fish had indeed been Governor Of
New York and United States Sena
tor, but never man Of mark, and he
had SO long been in obscurity tina,
the public had almost forgotten him
With the exception Of Mr.. Boutwell,
and General Rawlins, his Cabine,
officers are indebted to their Cabinet
positions for national reputation. We
have not mentioned Mr.. Washburne
because he was Secretary of State
only as temporary arrangement
1t must be admitted that, judged
from experience up to date, the
Grant innovation has worked well
Mr.. Fish has managed our foreign
affairs successfully in two or three
very trying emergencies. Messrs
