IN HASTE.

a wedding as abrupt, il not as fantastic,
as Mr.. Wemmick's took place not long ago
at Marlboro on the Hudson. During the af-
ternoon a %well-known resident of the village
called on the Rev. MIR. Osbon and invited
to dinner at six o'clock. "Bring a mar
rage certificate with you," said the host;
1--WE may have a wedding there tonight"
The doctor is q discreet man, and did as he
told. At his friends house he met a
large company, and after dinner was annouc-
ed took his seat at the well-appointed table.
The host undertook to carve the turkey, but
made such bungling work of his duties that
one of the geusts was constrained to remark
to him: 'You should get married, then
your wife would teach you the proper way
to do these things" The host did not deny
the soft impeachment, but told what manner
of woman he should like for a wife ending
by saying: "Now, before we proceed fur
ther. 'spose we take a vote as to who | shall
marry" The company entered into the can
vass with great hilarity, and after the vote
was taken it was declared that the host was
in duty bound to marry his house-keeper, a
young and well educated lady who had pre-
sized over the establishment for more than
a year. The youny lady had stepped into
the kitchen to give some final directions to
the cook, and when she returned she was in
formed of the views o. the company. She
was completely taken aback, but after the
ladies had coaxed her to give her consent,
she placed herself in the hands of her friends.
'%'IIalloo! let's get married now!" exclaim-
ed the host, with the imperturbable Wem-
mick's self-possession. The dinner was sus-
pended-indeed it had scarcely begun; the
bride took off her white apron; the BRIDE
groom dropped his napkin; the two were
made one the marriage certificate was
signed; and the company kissed the bride
and then sat down to dinner with a first rate
appetite. The next day a spinster in the
ne%ighborhood, hearing what had happened,
raised her hands toward Heaven and ex-
claimed in u spirit of true devoutness (:
Show sudden; there's no tellen' whose
turn I'll come next"

Gods radiant sunshine
To mourning hearts is given,
And we shall know no sorrow,
For there's no night in heaven.

And we shall know no sorrow,
For there's no night in heaven.
"A good example is the best sermon.
We are not SO sensible of the greatest
health as Of the least sickness.
Many a colts skin is fashioned to the

"A man winds up his clock to make it
run, and his business to makt 1t stop.
Hold on to your good character. for it is

A mans charity to those differing from
him upon great and difficult questions will be
in the ratio OF his own knowledge of them.
The more knowledge, the more charity.
Youth, like everything else, ihust be
cherished, not squandered and it we waste
it in trivo4ous designations, age will come be-
fore years. The faster we travel the sooner
will we get to our journeys end. Enjoy
youth in every reasonable way whilst we
have it, but always remember that every
time you oyerdraw OF it you are contracting
a debt that must be repaid, with heavy in

as you can, neglecting nothing which Will
assist You in doing so, bit scorning every
thing which is false or deccitful.

SAD BUT TRUE.

The other morning IN East Salem pater-
arose to make the fire. Making q
fire Is not a hilarious amusement when the
thermometer is several degrees below the
freezing point, and no kindling prepared,
the wood out doors, and the stove full of
ashes. At least so he thought as he slid
into his slippers, and out into the cold.
They were slippers, indeed. With an arm
fill OF wood he slipped against the stoves.
The pipe slipped down; he slipped out sew
eral burning words as his wife was slipping
out of bed to come to his relief. With
trembling limbs he placed a chair upon the
table and like the goddess upon the dome of
the court house, he ~surmounted all. He
tried to put the pipe in the hole in the wall
the stove. Both were showing, but despite
that they were getting along admirably
when his favorite dog espied the cat. A
bark and a scamper-that was all just then.
They rushed over her bare feet, while she
sighed very audibly and sank on the floor
ton, trying to receive the pipe, forgot his
balance and went to meet his wife upon the
floor, amid the. emusic of yells, sobs, shrieks,
~caterwauling, etc. "What a falling off was
there" While going to the hotel tor their
breakfast, and dumping the SCOT from his
ear, he vowed there would be a cat funeral
soon, and she, while trying to remove the
darkening hue from her once auburn ring
let's, wondered which poison would settle
that dogs hash soonest. ''This is true its
