FASHIONABLE WEDDING.-The BGltimsorean OF
last week says: "At ST. Timothy's Protestant
Episcopal church, Gainesville, Baltimore coun
ty, on Tuesday last, large company assem-
bled, to witness the nuptials of David Fowler,
ESQ.,, we'll known member of the Baltimore
Bar, and Miss Mary Brinkley, daughter of Jos.
B. Brinkley, Esq, of Baltimore county. At the
appointed hour, the bridal party entered amid
the renderingof Mendelssohn's Wedding March
upon the finely toned organ, and advancing to
the chancel, were met by the Rev. 7. W. Pun
nett, the rector Of st. Timothy's, who perform
ed the ceremony. The scene in the church,
contrasted pleasantly with the gloomy wealth
er without. The beautiful bride, in most be-
coming costume; the happy groom with his at
tendants the rector in flowing surplice; the
rich decoration of floral offerings in the chan
eel, while the subdued light played in soft col
ors over the assembly sitting as silent auditors
to the solemn ceremonial of the Episcopal SER
vice. The happy couple had neither brides
maids nor groomsmen, and after the interest
ing ceremony, were driven to the Union Depot
Charles street, where they embarked on the 2:25
train for New York"
TMr. Fowler was a candidate for the Legisla-
ture at the late election on the Democratic tick

path once more, as good as new. He had been
to see Scion Single, well-knOw farmer in

buggy in such small pieces on the pike that it
was necessary for him to ride home on his cane

number of lives cats seem to possess, and their
letin in the excellent portrait published by it
of the black cat of the Sun office, which jump

had happened. Occasion was taken at the time
TO express the disbelief that cats could be kill
ed in that way. The Bulletin mans various
experiences, under ground and on the frozen

DEAD INFANT FoUND.-On Tuesday morning
last officer VIM: M. Risteau, of this place, re-
ceived information that the dead body Of a
white infant had been discovered in sink in
the rear of house on the York road, a short
distance above Willow avenue. The officer
lodged information with Justice G. Lewis Cross,
Of Waverley, who, upon making an investiga-
ten found the body as aforesaid. A jury of
inquest was summoned, and several witnesses
were examined. DR.. Taylor testified to max
ing post norton examination OF the body,
and gave it as his opinion that the child had
lived, and came to its death violently by hav-
ing its neck twisted. Anne Howard testified
that she discovered the body Of the infant ;
that she informed a woman, living on the prem
Uses, of the fact, who told her to throw ashes
over the body, (Which she did, and to say
nothing about it, The jury was out from IL
o'clock M to o'clock p. m, and found YER
dict that the child had come to its death by
the hands of some person or persons to the jury
unknown. 1t is probable the matter will be
further investigated by the Grand Jury.

The Vanity of Human Wishes.

There is no more striking evidence of the vanity of human ambition than in the proposal to sell the house of MT. Jay Cooke in Pennsylvania and the transfer to railroad company of the palace of the late MT. LeGrand Lockwood, of Connecticut. Ten years ago MT. Cooke and MT. Lockwood were among the richest, most enterprising and most cele- brated merchants of this country.
 Wealth rolled upon them in the fullness of a spring tide. With wealth came the ambition to found family and home --an ambition which, whatever we may think of our democratic and liberal in stitutions, seems to be aninstinct of hu- man nature. Mir. Cooke built his house at Ogontz, which, from reports, cost him more than million dollars. The auc- tioneer the other day could only obtain bid of three hundred and fifty thou sand dollars. Although the sale was under decree of bankruptcy it was post poned. MT. Lockwood's palace at Nor walk cost one million two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and was recently offered for sale at one hundred and ten thousand dollars. This, the reporter in- forms us, is probably the finest private dwelling in America, constructed of solid blocks of granite, finished inside with rosewood and mahogany and cedar of Lebanon. MT. Lockwood is dead, and a railroad corporation possesses his do- main. MT. Cooke is 8 bankrupt, and the auctioneers are vainly asking the world to buy for a song what cost him for tune. How true it is, as the wisest of men once said: "Allis vanity and vexa- tion of spirit" -3

A Sermon on Riches.

It is strange how money, or the lack of it, can dull the best feelings of the heart, do away with the devotion of awife, break up friendships, and even destroy a parents love. The son of wealthy citizen had been unfortunate in busi- ness, and had gone to New Orleans to retrieve his fortune. His father had re- fused him aid, and the poor fellow had struggled on as manfully as he could,
 but evidently did not possess the money making faculty. Finally he came back to New York, but the father would not receive him. He went to an old servant of the family. and lived with him, until sickness overlook him and he died. Then the old servant went to the purse proud father and begged him to give the young man decent burial from his own home. The father refused, and to the old servant was left the task and expense Eof burying his masters son.
 Not long since the wealthy father of an other unfortunate young man allowed his son to be buried from the poor house. It hardly seems possible that Christian men, mixing in society and re- garded as good citizens, can in their private life be so dead to the common instincts of humanity; yet, doubtless, there are many instances like these in the great metropolis, and the adoration of wealth is daily making puerile syco- phants and gradgriends of what should be enoble and upright men. There is a whole sermon for the rich in the remark that s'shrouds are never made with nockets." - .t... \ ~-,..-;,,.... 4.+

Amusing the Baby.

When the baby is just ableto open it's little unused eyes it is first induced to gaze upon the lamp. The infant, with weak, pinkish, half-open eyes, is sui ferer beyond any power to tell of or get relief from its own woes, and yet the torment of making it gaze at " ze putty yed wight " is supposed to be exquisitely amusing. After the bother with the sun and lamp, the baby is jumped at, screamed at, and otherwise startled, un- til it's nerves are disturbed beyond or dinary quieting. It is subject of mar vel to most people that so many children die in infancy, but to an observing and refiecting mind the wonder is that any children grow to maturity. When you and I feel miserable we want to be left in quiet. Repose is the sweetest remedy for our nervous or other ills; but baby is trotted, bounced, toted, ketchy- ketchied." chucked under its chin, poked in it's cheeks, or somebody's thumb is thrust into it's toothless mouth irrespective of ablution, and then lt baby isn't happy it is reputed very 1rr1- table.

 mode of amusing baby. Of course the child laughs, and the idiots who torment it forget that it is the same expression with which they reply to similar pro cess from the hand of some mischleyous but torturing friend; and yet we all know that this laugh from man IS an hysterical outcry of nervous irritab1ilty. When the laugh ceases weariness brings weeping, or perhaps restless and rnre- freshing sleep, followed by depression, and probably by indigestion and collc, > Nothing should ever be done to startle child-even too frequent playing pf bopeep, if violent, has been known to bring on St. Vitus dance with delicate organizations. All surprises are dan gerous to the nervous system, just as all sudden atmospheric or dietetic changes are very unhealthy, and sometimes fatal. If music is selected to please the young child's ears, it should be gentle and soothing. -

Connubial InfideIity in Africa.

In a recent publication upon the Gold Coast, in reference to married life in Africa, the author says: The punishment of connubial infdelity in western Africa varies with the district of the country in which the, crime occurs, but it is generally severely visited. A common ordeal by which to test the in nocence or guilt of the accused is to compel her to immerse her hand in a vessel of boiling oil, when, if she utters no cry of pain, the accusation is decided to be groundless, but if unable to con- trol her feelings, she receives a beating in addition; while amongst other tribes the co respondent is simply fined in gold dust, according to his rank and station, and the damages are handed to the injured husband. A singular decision was ar- rived at some months ago in'the divorce court of the kingdom of Dahomey. The plaintiff, 8 man in struggling circum- stances, discovered that two neighboring captains of companies. had undermined the virtue of his only wife. His cause was laid at once before the sovereign, who gave it an attentive hearing, and then inquired what redress or compensa. tion was expected at his hands. The complainant hesitated to reply, merely repeating with 'nauseous iteration, :" $ He had no other wife but her-he had no other wife but her," until, growing impatient, the king directed him to state immediately what sentence he wished to be pronounced On the correspondents.
 Thus commanded, the injured party answered that, as he was the proprietor of only single wife, and each one of the defendants were possessed of sev- eral, there was no other method of making them adequately comprehend the extent to which his feelings as a husband had been outraged than by as- signing all their wives to him, and giv- ing, them the respondent in return !! The king replied he considered the re- quest just and reasonable, and imme- diately gave the necessary order; and as one of the captains was blessed with three wives, and the other was supplied with four, the plaintiff came into pos session of seven wives to console him for the loss of one. .....
