GINS MARRIAGE.-The Memphis
avalanche of recent date contain
ell the following wedding notice,
which will be interesting reading to
Cincinnatians:
There was quiet and unostenta.
tious wedding ceremony in one of the
parlors OF the Peabody Hotel yester-
day afternoon, the contracting par
ties being Mr.. G.. n. Robinson, one
of the soas of John Robinson, and
Miss Emma Lake. DR.. White, of
Calvary Church ofiiciated, the cere-
mony VAS witnessed by the mother of
the bride and few immediate friends
of the happy couple.
There was no ostentation about
the ceremony, for after il Mrs. Robins
son returned to the show, and with
that grace and spirit with which she
introduces her splendid management
of the horse, appeared in the
ring as if nothing unusual had hap
pened. This wedding brought to-
gether the fortunes Of two who arc
worthy of the best happiness, and We
know that the geniaity OF the groom
and his many excellent qualities, will
vie with the efforts Of the charming
bride TO make their course through
life such rs 10 secure the brightest
joys that come to the home where
love reigns supreme.
"Gil's friends, who are Il host, have
honored the occasion in extending, by
letter and through messengers, their
sincere congratulation. They will
give him bumper when he returns
to winter quarters.

The testimony OF Mr.. Cheever, II,
the case OF Henry Clews * Co., is
certainly most unpleasant reading.
1t reveals the most shameful proceed
ings. For many years the house
OF Barings, one of the few most emf
ncnt banking houses in the world,
had been the financial agent of the
United States in Europe. But four
or five years ago, without any pre-
tense that the business conhded to the
Barings had been negligcntly or ex
travagantly or unsatisfactory per
formed, they were dismissed rs the
foreign agents of the government.
and the house Mr.. Henry Clews sub
stituted. Two years ago that house
failed di>astrously. and now upon
some suit brought by creditors the
secret history of its selection is laId
bare. There WAS II ring composed
of the house and certain lobbyists rs
procure the appointment, AMI an
agreement of Il division OF the profits
that might arise. There is n strong
implication that the lobby used Illicit
influences, and the name of Louis
Dent. a brother in-law of the PrcSi-
dent, is mentioned ~ one Of those
who was 10 receive money, and pre-
sumabIy for bis influence with the
President. There is not the slght-
est evidence, however, that he had
such influence or attempted 10 CXer-
else it, or that the President was
aware Of the conspiracy. HrPer's

DOWN TO SLEEP"

November woods are bare and still,
November days are clear and bright;
Each noon burns up the mornings chill,
The Mornings snow is gone by night;
Each day my steD grows slow, grows light,
As through the woods ! reverent creep,
Watching all things lie ''dovn TO sleep
Ineverknew before what beds
Fragrant 10 smell, and soft 10 touch
The forest sits. and shapes, and spreads;
never knew before how much
OF human sound there Is IN such
Low tones, as through the forest sweep
When all Wild things lie down TO sleep.
Each day find new coverllds
Tucked in, and more sweet eyes shut tight;
Sometimes the vieWless mother bds
Her ferns lie down, full in my sight:
hear their chorus Of good night
And half smile, and half weep,
Listening, while they lie down 10 sleep"
November woods are hare and still;
November days are bright and good;
LIES noon burns up life's morning chill;
LIES night rests teet which long have stood;
Some warm soft bed in field nr wood,
The mother viii not fail 10 keep,
When We can lay US down TO sleep"

HUNTINGTON THURSDAY, DECEMBER 1875

, Fannie awoke the next morning
with dull aching at her heart. She
knew nothing of what had transpir-
ed, but a nameless fear seized her as
she heard the ringing of the door
bell. What suspence. She opened
the door. A boy handed her note.
"FANNIE.-I am dying. Come.
Roy.
She did not faint nor scream; but
with hot, fearless eyes, and tremb-
ling steps, she obeyed the summons.
She knew something had happened
knew tnat Roy was dying, and had
sent for her. His mother met her ut
the door, and told her all. When
she entered the room, physician
who was standing near the bed. rais-
ed his finger in token OF silence
She could hardly suppress a scream,
as she saw Roy's face-Oh! SO ghast-
ly, lying on the pillow. A form
knelt on the opposite side of the bed.
and as she went near, it raised, and
showed the pale, fearful face of
Stella Lee. Roy had sent for her
at daybreak to show her what enc
glass had done. They told her he
was dying. and she dare not refuse.
When she saw Fannie, groan escap-
eJ her lips. and she again hid her
face. The groan aroused Roy, who,
until now, had been living in Il stupor,
and he murmured, Has she come"

"Fannie's tears fell fast as she
knelt by his bedside, but she couli
only murmur, Roy, oh Roy
"Am | forgiven?" and Stella Lees
voice broke the silence.

That was the end. Roy Hall was
dead. ] cannot tell you how Fan
ME suffered, nor how long she battled
with her feelings before she could en-
dure the sight of Stella; but when
she came and on bende knees beg
ged her forgiveness, she could not
withhold it. She joined the League,
and no saloon was too vile for her to
enter, and plead with tears for those
who were going the downward road.
From the merry, thoughtless girl,
she became a grave, sober women.-
But | could ieIl you, if time would

and an Oxford for $l0.4lO. 1t takes
some courage for breeder of short
horn. to declare such prices. and the
current prices for short horns, to be
not only ridiculous in themselves,
resting upon no substantial basis OF
intrinsic value, but furthermore, that
the inevitable tendency Of such excl
ted imitation is to lead to point
when the only result is Il disastrous
collapse.

| season. che had heard OF Fannle
refusing TO attend several parties, be
cause they were to have wine, anC
she had told Stella, that if she refSs
ed to come to her party, they would
cease to be friends.
Roy Hall and Fannie had grown
up children together and he had
Lowell her ever since first beneath the
chesnut trees in infancy they played.
Roy's father had been one of the
most talented men in the State of
West Va, and at one time had been
Representative to Congress. But
his love for stlong drink proved his
ruin. Let me tell you here how he
died. He had been to 4 political
meeting few miles from home, and
after it was over, started home across
the hills with Two of his neighbors,
all intoxicated. 1t was very cold
night, and before they had gone far,
the snow began to fall. They came
to a stream by which Mr.. Hall knelt
down to drink, his comrades going
on. He failed to reach home that
night, and the next morning, Roy,
in company with those who started
with him, went in search of hln.-
They found him just Us he had knelt;
his face in the water, Dead. This
happened a year before our story
opens. The sin of the father had
been inherited by the son but the
way that the father died, caused Roy
to shun for awhile the places he had
before frequented; yet in few
months it was all forgotten, and
Roy was again found in the dram
shop. He and Fannie had been en-
gagged several months, but it had not
as yet, become generally known
When she joined the League, he was
the first one she tried to save. At
first he laughed at her, but when she
recalled his fathers Death, and told
him. with tears in her eyes, that she
could never be nothing more to him
than a friend, unless he gave up strong
drink, he yielded. Only one week
had elapsed since he had signed the
pledge, and this was his first tenrpta-
ton. Would he overcome it or? and
Il groan burst from Fannle's lips, as
she thought of the alternative. She
knew that if the cup again passed
his lips, his love for it beingso strong,
that all her work would be in vain.
When evening came, Roy called for
Fannie. She begged him not to 90
to the party. 81 have promised Lou
to come, Fannie" said he. This is
her first party and l must 60. |
promise you not to drink. Adieu."
