A Wedding Secret well Kept.

( On one of the excursions which left Staun-
ton in October, 1876 for the Centennial
were two passengers, one young lady OF
Rockbridge, whose bright face as we'll as
| her bright mind had made her as popular
in Stanton society as at home, and anoth-
er was young GENTLEMAN Of Stanton,
temporarily residing in Rockbridge, who
contemplated shortly removing 10 the far
West. They were devoted lovers, and as
the sequel will show, the gentleman
took such precaution against the lady
changing her mind during his expected alb
sence as was insurmountable. Stopping in
Bal imvre few hours tie lady AID gen.
tleman, after the latter had procured a
license, repaired to the residence of Rev.
Mr.. Murkland,. the famous Presbyterian
minister. 1.-THE lady being a Presbyterian
and we're united in wedlock. They then
returned to their respective homes and
there the secret was confded to two OF
the groom's family and relative in Rich
mond, the lady making a cOnfidant of one
of her family and devoted married lady
friend. The groom went west to make his
fortune and will, in few days, return to
claim his wife. who has all along retained
her maiden name. Though the marriage
took place nearly three years ago and sew
zen persons knew it, not word has
has leaked out about it until within the
last week, a fact that entirely disposes of the
assertion that "a woman can't keep &c.
cret," and also fact that makes each
gossip in Staunton tear his or her hair that
they didn't find it out in that length Of
time.

In teaching it is necessary to have knowl-

Washington, Jan. 6.-Delrgate Can
non, Of Utah, and other leading Nor
nous here are much exercised about
the opinion delivered in the supreme
court by Chief Justice Waite, asserting
the constitutionality of the act OF con-
gress, approved July 1, 1862, which de-
clares that every person having a hus.
band or wife living, who marries an
other, whether married or single, in a
territory or other place over which the
United States has exclusive jurisdic-
tion, is guilty of bigamy, and shall be
punished by fine of not more than
$500, AMI by imprisonment for term
of not more than five years.
A case to test the constitutionality Of
this act was brought before the supreme
court of the United States by an ap-
peal from the supreme court of the
territory of Utah.
Mr.. Biddle, of Philadelphia, who ap-
peared with two lawyers from Utah.
held that the act was aimed at a relig-
ious institution, and was consequently
u violation of the first amendment to
tue constitution, which declares that
congress shall make no law prohibit
ing the free exercise Of religion" but
the supreme court decided that the
plea OF religious convictions is not u
valid defense, and chat the polygamous
marriages in the Mormon church are
not protected by constitutional pro-
visions. This is death blow to poly
gamy, as there is 10 further appeal,
and persons convicted of bigamy in
Utah must suffer fine or Imprisonment
or both.
The chief justice desires to revise the
opinion before it is published. 1t is
understood to receive the endorsement
Of the full bench, although Judge Field
dissented as far as related to the ad-
instability Of certain evidence.

Washington, Jan. s.-The appoint
ment Of Ex-Confederate Gen. Long
street as postmaster of Gainesville, Ga,
is very offensive to Senators Hill and
Gordon, and the Georgia representa-

Longstreet was driven out Of New
Orleans on account of his republican
ism. and took refuge on plantation he
owned In Gainesville, some two years
ago.
