Edition. IntellIgencer.
The most noticeable event Of the season
was the marriage Of one Of our most &C.
complished young ladies, viz: Miss Matte
Trussell; the groom, John Armstrong,
hailing from Belmont county, o.
This has been the chief topic Of CONVEX
sation for some time among the people Of
Dallas, as Matte Is great iayorite with
all. September, the 4th, at an early hour
guests began to arrive, and at 5 o'clock r.
NJ. every thing being in readiness, the com.
pany were summoned to repair to the
beautiful grounds which surround the res
idence OF Mr. Trussell, where the cere-
mony was TO take place; and there amid
the perfume Of flowers the twain were
made one, Rev. ]. P. Thatcher performing
the marriage ceremony. MAY the future
OF their married life be as howery as the
beginning.)
Alter the usual congratulations OF rela-
ttVes and friends, all repaired to the
spacious dining rooms, where sump.
tuous supper awaited them. A descrip-
ton by your correspondent Of the good
things would be inadequate. Suffice TO
say upon this subject that substantials
and delicacies to please the appetite OF
the most fastidious were lavishly sup.
Piled. After supper some repaired to the
croquet grounds, some chose TO walk
among the beautiful trees and flowers,
while many assembled in the parlor. Ali
appeared to be happy; trouble and sad
ness seemed to have been forgotten amid
the wit and humor Of the gay company.
Ths following ladies contributed to the
enjoyment of the occasion by discoursing
excellent music: Mrs. Lizzie Wood, Mrs.
Celia :Roney, Miss Ella King, Of Clays-
vile, Pa; Miss Jennie Ely, OF West Alex
