MARRIAGE BELLS.
Nuptiais of Mr.. J. T.. FOSlc TO Miss
Leila AddingtOn.

A happy event, long expected, was to-
day witnessed bv a few Of the elite OF
Hartford, in the marriage of ]. E. Fogle
to Miss Leila Arlington, both Of this
place, by Rev. W. w. Cook, of the NJ. E.
church.
This was not only happy, but most
brilliant affair; and all of the surround
ings seemed to lend helping hand to
make this an event long to be remem-
bered by the people of Hartford.
Fais-handed Spring had unbosomed
every grace, and the feataered wsrblers
sent forth their sweet notes from the
tiowery-crowded boughs that surround
the residence Of the brides father, where
the ceremonies were performed, as if in
congratulstion of tire happy pair, and in
celebration a. the event
"The bud. expand, the leaves are green,
On every stem the flower Is seen
Now comes the humid breath and rosy smile,
And with their sweets the willing sense beguile
All was brightness, and life, and gay
ETY.; the atmosphere seemed of al indis-
cribable pureuess and transparency; and
while the birds sent forth their wonton
madrigals, the gentle zephyrs, laden with
the perfume OF a thousand roses, kissed
the vermilion lips Of the lovely bride.
It was safIron-robed morn, and the joyial
sun was breaking glorious from the cast,
playing from the summit of the hills and
sprinkiiug che flowers and foliage with a
thousand dewy gems. The morn with
its many beauties; the springtime of
flowers and sunshine, forcibly, but agree
ably reminded us that this happy pair,
in the rosy morn and springtime of life,
while the tendrils and flowers Of youth
are watered with the dews Of the early
morn of their lives, are entering lifes
pathway, plcdging and promising in the
sight of man and the presence of God, to
love, cherish and protect each other un>
til they shall be borne to the lasd where
spring never ends, where dark clouds
never come, and where there are no
marriages or giving in Of marriages.
The bride is a blonde with laughing
ewes, regular beauties, and modest. I'M
assuming and lady-like in her bearing.
She is highly cultivated, and noted for
her christian virtues and sweetness OF
disposition.
Her bridal robe was exquisite.in every
particular, and. as she noiseiessly glided
into the room, leaning on the arm of her
betrothed, wondered in profound amaze
ment for moment, if such innocence,
purity and loveiness could belong to this
cold, unfeeling world; or if it could be
possible that the dark cloud Of misery
and despair should ever loom up in her
now bright future Indeed Mr.. Fogle
has won a jewel Of great value. She was
attended by Miss Carrie Gibson, a charm
ing brunette, who was tastefully dressed,
and who will also prove priceless jewel
to the fortunate one who shall lead her
to the hymenial altar The bride was
also attended by Miss Lide Barnes, anoth-
err brunette. arrayed in neat dress, and
looking very beautiful.
The groom is a promising young law,
yer of this bar, and nephew of Hon. w.
Y. Sweeney, of Greensboro, Ky. His at
tire was reat and appropriate for the oc,
casion. He was attended by 7. j..
Smith, who, it is thought, has recently
imbibed matrimonial ideas. and has be-
come convinced that it is not meet that
man should remain alone always, He
was also attended by Clarence Hard>
wick, a modest young man, and the girls
think he has ideas not unlike those OF
Mr. Smith. The bride and groom depart
at once for Louisville, thence TO Casey
county, this State, where they will re-
main fortnight, visiting the friends and
relatives of Mr.. Fogle. after which they
will return to Hartford and take up
their residence here.
We assure the bridal party (Mr and
Mrs. FOgle) that they take with them
on their tour the good wishes and con-
gratulations Of all who know them.
May their future, which is now so full
of hope, sunshine and happiness, be fully
realized by them. May their lives be
long and happy. and when their last sun
is sinking, may they feel that the world
has gained much by their having lived
in it. HoKATIo.
