| HEAPIIY-MoRRIs0N--On Wedncs,
day evening, September Goth, 1880, AT
st. Peters lCatholic) Church, by Kew,
Father Plcherit, Mr.. John Hoanhev
and Miss Mary T.. Morrison, all Of this,
city. ' w '''''
me photographic dispatches of Thursday
announced the marriage in London of Mr..
Wm. NJ. Pelton, of Louisiana, to Miss
Florence Tilton, daughter OF the celebrated
theodore Tilton, of New York. The ccre-
Imony was celebrated at the Church of st.
fahcras, with due solcmnity, and the
Iappy PAIR SET out thence upon their we'd
ding tour.
The bridegroom on this occasion bclonps
10 noted Louisiana family. His father
MI MI. Jho. NJ. PcltOn, of Dulac plantation,
IeffcD0ne parish, was one of the wealth.
est and most enterprsing citizens of
Louisiana. Several years ago, having ac-
acquired large fortune in planting sugar,
he removed with his family to Europe and
settled finally in Germany, in the famous
city or Stuttgardt, where the family re-
siued uhtll lOur years ago, when the death
OF Mr. ana Mrs. Pelton broke up the family
circle. The eldest daughter of the house
married Mr.. Thomas j. Shaffer, of st. Mary
parish, before the removal of the family to
Europe. The second daughter. Miss
Agnes, married in Stuttgardt Russian
gentleman, Mr.. Eek, most accomplished
and elegant gentleman, in easy if
not ilourishing circumstances. They are
now settled in Germany. The eldest son,
John Il. Pelton, married a daughter of
Joseph Dunbar, Esq, of this city, his
fathers former partner and now of the
" house of Creevy & Dunbar.
FOR two or three years he remained in
business with Mr.. Dunbar, but last year
the firm expired by limitation, and Mr..
relton Is now partner in the house of
howard, Flower Co. win Pelton was
the last unsettled member of the family.
For three or four years he has been living
students life in Paris, Stuttgarlt, Bonn
and other places, unable to fix his favor
upon any given spot or special occupation,
until the brlSlt eyes and winning ways of
Florence ,TitoN anchored his hayward
fancy, and, we Must, has secured his life
ong happiness. We. have not heard where
he young couple intend to make their
home, but, wherever it may be, they have
our best wishes for their happiness and
welfare.
