The hall was brilliantly lighted, and
decorated with festoons and garlands.
Suspended from the chandeliers and
on the walls were singing birds In
cages, and part Of the time they were
coramingling their sweet notes with
those OF the orchestra, the wholesome
conspirlng to render an effect as beau
tiful and charming as fairy land. The
happy groom was made to feel that
his worth and many good traits were
duly appreciated by the host Of friends
In his midst.
The bride was given a hospitable re-
seption to this her new home. She Is
tall and stately In stature; Is possessed
OF refined and cultivated general APP
pearance, and will no doubt add
greatly to the large circle Of her newly
made friends. She appeared to feel
perfectly at home, 30 cordial was the
brilliant reception on the part Of those
present. She wore q lovely mauve
colored silk dress, with pompandour
train and ornaments OF diamonds.
Shortly after one o'clock, the gay
assemblage repaired to the Delmonico
restaurant, where an elegant supper
was partaken of. Here flashing wit
and sparkling wine, together with a
table grooming under a load Of temp.
ting edibles, was feast fit for the
gods, and was part of the occasion
as previously arranged In the pro.
gramme. Returning to the hall, ION

motto, and until the dawn Of day, due
homage was paid to Terpsichore.

stage We shall find that they are attached to
the timber by means Of q tube not unlike
the windpipe Of o chicken, this tube being
filed with o liquid, whilst from the shell
protrudes o series OF twenty-four hairy claws
or tentaoles. Each joint Of the latter Is

Foreign Mobiles and American Girls.

i am sorry to hear, writes Olive Lo-
gan to the Cincinnati Enquirer, that
Miss Polk, of Tennessee, is going TO
marry a French General much her Sc
Nor. These marriages between MAY
and December are never happy ones,
even between compatriots, but when
the high contracting parties are of diff
ferent nationalities they are invariably
unsuccessful. Jealousy and diverse
notions of property always bring
about trouble. An American girl NAV
do thing which, from her point of
view, is entirely harmless, but which
may have some frightful meaning to a
foreigner. A schoolmate of mine took
all the money her father had left her,
and which he extracted painfully from
many generations Of swine, and used
it to buy herself prize animal of the
same sort-who was grandee of Spain
-grandee Castilian hogee. My friend
was young and pretty, and as good
girl as ever lived. Her manners, how
ever, had, if any thing, rather more
than the traditional repose of the We're
dc Veres-in fact, | may say she was
decidedly free and easy. In company.
or alone, her favorite habit was not to
sit on one foot-the usual lounge of
school girls-but to cross one genu.
fiexed member over t'other, aud swing
her number one slipper. Now, old
Holofernes couldn't endure this: he
demonstrated with her a number of
times; even italicised his remarks by
tweaking her nose and pulling her
cars. She strove earnestly to break
herself of The habit, but occasionally
would relapse into it. One night at a
ball she did so. When he brought her
home he nearly murdered her, and
then, for the first time, she discovered
from the broken English explanations
that among the Spanish this simple in
fraction of dignity on the part of a
lady had meaning worthy of the i'm |
agination of an Iago. She never smiled |
again. These remarks about marriages
have led from the subject of them,
namely, Miss Polk. She is a girl of
surprising beauty, of fortune, and has
lived long in Italy. She is the heroine
of Joaquin Miller's OSCILLATIONS, call
ed ''One Fair Woman" and also his
model of lady fair in drama which
he wrote some years ago and sent over
to America from Europe for produc-
ton. The MS. was lost on the way,
and, as he had no duplicate, the fishes
hold the copyright, and are now giving
amateur performances of it at the
Court of Neptune.

Colonization Of Intsmpsranoa.

The Rev. E. e. Hale advocates plan
for the colonization of poor men who
wish to break from liquor habits, but
have not made themselves liable to
confinement in the reformatory insti-
tutions. Men of means sometimes
move to temperance towns and remain
there till the moral strength is restor-
ed, and Mr.. Hale's plan is to secure
this retreat for poor men by system
of labor contracts for two or three
years, similar to an enlistment in the
army or navy. Some island, like Pen
ikese or Cuttyhunk in Buzzard's Bay,
could be secured, and cheap dwellings
built, with small allotments of land to
each, and with large farms, shoe shops
or other industries. The class of men
for whom it is intended, Mr.. Hale
thinks, would jump at the offer to be
hired with their families for two or
three years. 1t is just what they and
their wives pray for, and with COM
Portable houses and gardens, steady
work, food without rum, and society
without temptations, the men would,
before their contracts expired, be now
men in body and ambition, and per-
haps be able to buy their little homes
and remain in them.
