Welded at Last,

A gentleman from Waxahachie, now visit

excitement was created in the social circle of
bis town last Wednesday, by the marriage of
Mr.. Nicholas Sims, wealthy farmer of Ellis
County, aged seventy, to Mrs. Dunlap, an es-
teemed lady of Waxahachie, Of some sixty
summers. In the State Of Tennessee they had
In the days of childhSod, lived together; In
youth had loved with all the fervor of the
hearts irst passion, and when grown, rumor
nays, plghted their faith; but the pledge was
broken and the lovers separated. The lover
married another, whose death he mOurned
several years ago. The lady twice bowed at
the bridal altar and twics has wcpt over the
grave of departed husband After forty
years they met in this distant State, aud
though his form has lost its yOuthlsl pride and
vigOr, and her once rosy check and spark ling
eye have somewhat faded, the love Of former
days is aroused from its long slumber, and at
the residence of DIR. Sweat, the brides sOn.m.
law, IN the presence Of few old friends the
broken pledge is fulfilled. Such remarkable
renewal Of an early attachment Is seldom
found, and challenges even fiction for an equal.
Time we learn, has dealt kindly with the
couple, and they look as though they may yet
enjoy many happy days ofwedded life.-Dalds

Brain qtlunulaut.

The best possible thing for man to do when
he feels too weak to carry anything through
is to 70 to bed and sleep "a long a. he can.
This Is the only recuperation Of brain power,
the only actual recuperation Of brain force
because during sleep the brain Is In = state Of
rest, In condition to receive and appropriate
particles Of nutriment from the blood, which
takes the place Of those which have been con-
sumed by previous labor; also the very act
Of thinking burns up solid PARTICLES, as every
turn Of the wheel or screw Of the steamer Is
the result Of consumption by FIRE Of the fuel
in the furnace. The supply OF consumed brain
substance can only be had from the nutritive
particles in blood which were obtained from
the food eaten previously, and the brain Is so
constituted that It can best receive and appro-
pirate to itself those nutritive particles dur
ing the state of rest, ofquiet, and stiffness Of
sleep. Mere stimulants supply nothing In
themselves; they goad the brain, and force IL
TO greater consumption of Its substance, un-
til il Is so exhausted that there Is not power
enough left to receive supply.
