WEDDING EXTRAORDINARY.-Such wag-
on load of youth and beauty as arrived in
town last Wednesday, is rarely to be met
with nowadays. From appearances we con-
cluded that marriage was to take place and
were not disappointed, for, during the day,
the bride and bridegroom, attended by quite
little procession of their country friends,
could be seen vending their way in the di.
rection of the county auditors Office. Arriv-
ing there, application was made for license,
which was at once granted-and the parties
having already procured the services of
minister-were made one on the spot. OF
course it was no high toned affair, 1.-the air
was not laden with oriental perfume, neither
was the room resplendent with the lights
from alabaster lamps" and although the
usual bridal veil, wreath Of orange blossoms,
white kids, etc, were conspicuous by their
absence, and evidence that the {" trousseau
had not been ordered from Worth, of Paris,
still everyone, though not fashionably attir-
ed, was dressed in good style. After the
ceremony, the happy couple, with their,
friends, walked up Main street to where the
wagon was standing and got in. The groom's
face, which up to this time had remained
perfectly placid, suddenly changed-he had
forgottensomething. Jumping from the wagon
he fastened to the nearest fruit store, and in
few minutes returned laboring under the
weight of a very large watermelon. After
getting in the wagon, be at once began to
dissect the aforesaid fruit Here was the
richest treat of all, he was culling out the
most luscious portions and feeding them to
her with a pen-knife. "Soft eyes looked
love to eyes which spake again" when sud-
denly he was brought to realize that he was
still in this world, by fellow on the front
seat of the wagon calling out, Say. Tom,
throw a chunk of that thar melon over here"
We drop the curtain.

Nor BUYISG,-One Of our largest opera
tors informs US that shippers have ceased to
buy wheat. He says the uncertainty about
getting the wheat out of the country has
driven capitalists out of the market. Millers
are buying wheat in small quantities for
milling purposes paying 7Oa72 cents This
ID decline upon the price paid by millers
last week. Only choice lots command these
figures.

The WHEAT MARKET. Our San Fran
ci,oOe1changes quote wheat at s. 3OgS2 81
per GENITAL. In this market wheat Is dull
,,e al 20 cents bushel. The reason Of this
is the lack OF shipping facilities. The San
Francisco rate for wheat is 81 80 per bushel,
and it will thus be seen that our producers
pay at the rate Of 20 cents bushcl to get
'heir wheat 10 market. That il to say, the
farmer se:s 20 cents, and the shippers, com
ni'sl"n men, etc, get the other 20 cents
