Fancy work with Autumn Leaves.

lFIOln ln' iOun'Iy ntnltlhuH'l
The bright tints of autumn leaves
are very lovely for ornamenting our
par0rs, boudoirs, and dining-tables.
Brackets and pioture-frames can also
be adorned with them, aud they add
greatly to the beauty of ones surround
ings. Collect large quantity, COM
bining every hue, from crimson scar
let, from scarlet to yellow, and from
yellow to green. The red beech and
the beautiful variegated sumach are
very desirable, rs also are oak and
ferns, but the maple exceeds them all
in the great variety of tints, and the
various sizes of the leaves. Smooth
every leaf on the wrong side with n
moderately warm iron, holding it upon
the leaf only minute. Then take n
camel's hair pencil, and little olive
oil, and carefully brush over every
part Of the leaf. Place them on II flat
surface to dry, and let them remain
until the next day.
For wireing these leaves into gar
lands, etc., or for preparing them for
bouquets, take the fine grass-covered
reel wire, such as is always used in
manufacturing wax flowers, and attach
it around the stem, first laying it so
that it will extend the entire length of
the leaf to support it. Afterwards
wind around each stem to conceal the
wire, either narrow strips of green It's
sue-paper, or brown Berlin worsted,
and join the leaves together In sprays
of course the individual leaves on each
spray must be of the same species
Prepare large number of these sprays
mounted ON wires, and then arrange
them in vases, about picture frames,
over mirrors, and rs ornaments to lace
curtains, and your apartments will pre-
sent u festive appearance, although
the dreary winter weather has brown
ed the face of nature. Oak leaves
acorns, aud brightly colored beans,
gummed upon cardboard frame, will
make handsome corner brackets. or
wall pockets and vases to your beauti-
full leaves. The acorns and beans ought
first to be cut in half, when used for
this purpose.

A Marriage L,ceuee Discussion,

In Columbus, Ohio, some months
ago, Christopher Smith took out Ii
cense to marry young woman, max
ing an affidavit that the woman was
OF legal age. The license was granted
by the clerk of the probate court. Soon
afterward the girls father had Smith
arrested for perjury, as the girl, at the
time, was but sixteen years old. Smith
was indicted by the grand jury, and
the case came on for trial in the COM
mon pleas court to-day. Smiths at
torney claimed there vase 10 case, rs
the probate judges clerk was not le-
gally authorized to issue licenses in the
absence of the probate judge. This
opinion was sustained by Judge Bing-
ham, who held that the probate judge,
under the constitution and laws, was
authorized to issue marriage licenses,
butInot authorized to collegiate this pow
er to his clerk, and directed the jury to
bring in verdict of not guilty, which
was consented to by the prosecuting
attorney, and the prisoner discharged.
This, Of course, does not invalidate the
marriage under this license.
