A FOrgctful Bridegroom.

An old story has it that the young lady
bc.rothed to Isaac Newton left him a life
long bachelor because, one day, the alb
sent minded philosopher took her little
finger to punch down the ashes in his
pipe. The careless Western man here
mentioned earned pretty nearly the same
fate.
An absent minded gentleman in St.
Paul, Mimi, recently applied to the
county clerk for marriage license.
"Wbat's the brides name2' asked the
official. The bridegroom paused, coughed,
sneezed, blew his nose, scratched
his head, and finally stammered,-
II can't recall it, but III 60 and ask
her,"
Having obtained the desired informa-
ton, he returned and paid the fees for
the license. A few days afterwards be
took his bride to a minister's house, and
proclaimed his anxiety to be married on
the spot. The minister said he would
marry them il they had procured H.
cense. The bridegroom rummsged in his
pockets, and found it not. He had for
gotten to bring it with him.
~ must have the warrant" said the
solemnly.
The bride handed he. prospective lord
the keys of bis trunk, and he set out for
his house to fetch the document. The
marriage ceremony Was finally performed,
but the lady was III It east.
"What comfort can have, she unused,
Iii he can't remember anytlling!"- She
forsook him that very afternoon, and has
tened hone to her mother.

The COlOnel's Blunder.

A correspondent of tho Cincinnati En-
Quirer tells this humorous story IN illus
tration of the obtuscness of men:
Last evening attended little dinner
party given in honor of very lovely
young lady here on visit from Baltimore.
There we're only six couples invited, and
all arrived within the limits Of fashion
able punctuality, save the gallant Colo
mel -. Finally our hostess gave him
up, and the signal was given to adjourn
to the dining-roo,n.
We had barely seated ourselves when
the missing ex-warrior arrived, and, re-
ceiving an informal welcome, was intro
duced to few who were strangers, and
to the Baltimore belle, whose place of
residence he did not catch.
Colonel -, who is considerable of
q wit, was called upon for some Of his
war "reminiscences. 1t was 10 vain our
gentle hostess shook her brown head at
him; the colonel did not notice it, and
launched at once into an interesting Skin
mish he had had with party Of "rebs."
He had hardly spoken the latter word
when his host, unable to restrain himself,
gave him q gentle but insinuating kick
under the table; but the orator, as If of
flint, went on, and even when the hint
was repeated, steadily pursued bis re-
cital. ..s.l
Finally he put his foot in it by refer.
ence to the Marylanders, whom he char.
acterized a. "skulkers," when up rose the
beautiful brunette, with flashing orbs and
making him . sweeping courtesy, she
said
AT least, Colonel -, they have
too much chivalry to insult lady At the
table of friend! !" and left the room.
"What have I saidi' cried the man Of
blood. n insult ladyl Nsveri" Then
said the hostess, reproachfully, Colonel,
tried in vain to stop you, bot il seemed
- though you avoided my eye. Didnt
