devoid Of excitement and special interest, the specu-
lation was perhaps interesting To the nsidcr who

market. After steady to firm opening the active
shares became weak. as Lake Shore Western Union
Telegraph, and Mississippi and Ohio dropped down
81 TO over per cent. Later there recovery.

ing grade was again attempted, but it
did not mako much Roadway. The Gran.

till near the close when it dropped nearly point.
Union Pacific was frmcr, and Erie steady and neg
lected Rock Island was also firm. but the light
fancies. like Wabash. Hannibal and ST. Joseph, and

From the Charleston, West Virginia, Tri.
Weekly Courier, Sth nstantl
A large and brilliant company of
ladies and gentlemen assembled
Thursday evening at the residence
OF Mr.. and Mrs. e. S. Arnold, in
this city, to witness the marriage
of their beautiful and accomplished
daughter, Miss Kate v. Arnold,
and Captain Frank w. Abney, Of
Louisiana.
After the performance of an I'M.
pressive ceremony, by Rev. j. G..
Barr, of this city, the happy pair
received the congratulations OF the
company, the doors Of the supper
room were thrown open and the
guests invited to partake of su-
peru collection. The table was
sumptnously supplied with substan-
tials, Injuries and delicacies appro-
pirate to the occasion and with its
tasteful designs in confectionery
and its floral decorations presented a
magnificent appearance. The feast
OF good things was partaken OF,
with every evidence OF high enjoy.
ment. The strains of sweet music
then arose upon the air, and the
sparlors Of the h0spitable mansion
were filed with the lnerriment Of
happy dancers, who continued the
festivities to late hour.
The presents with which the
friends and relatives of the bride
attested their good wishes, attract
ed universal attention. Rare and
elegant taste was manifest in their
selection, and as far AS rich and
beautiful testimonials can speak,
they were eloquent Of affection, and
heartfelt interest in the future OF
the young couple.
Misses Lizzie Rand aud Mamie
Ruby, and Messrs. Noyes Burlew
and j. G Arnold assisted at the
ceremony; Captain and Mrs. Abney
left on the noon train yesterday for
the bridal tour to Richmond, Wash
ington, Baltimore and New York.
We unite with the citizens OF
Charleston and all the friends OF
the newly welded pair, in wishing
them long life and uninterrupted
happiness.

acquainted with Messrs. Chaffe and
Hamilton, and know them to
be correct, energetic and reliable
business men; and learn from per

character for integrity and business
qualifications than he, among his
fellow-citizens of Mississippi, where
he has spent the greater portion OF
