am ne wedding was at st. AIMS |
Catholic church on Va. Hill, the hour
being 6 a, m. Father Sylvan was the of
hcating Priest. The bride was taste
fully attired In rich brown silk and vel
vet, and her appearance was elegant
Quite number Of friends were assem-
bled, and the rich and beautiful service
of the Catholic Church made the occasion
one Of decided interest. The happy pair
accompanied by number Of friends
drove to the handsome residence Of Mr.. |
Harmeling, on Scott street, where nm ell
egant breakfast awaited them. Mr., llar- |
melting is one Of orr most enterprising |
and popular tow nsmen, and Ills new dwell
ling Is elegantly furnished and clabor-
atcly supplied with all the comforts and |
convcnicnces Of the period. In business
he is prosperous, and being now happily
welded to the lady Of his choice, he en-
tcrs on new life that ought to render
him as happy rs men are allowed to be
on these mundane shores. IL affords me
decided pleasure to subtract his name
from the long and stubborn phalanX,
which an unsympathising world coldly
dubs with the title of bachelorhood.--
This sidewalk man, for his absence from
the wedding, enters the apostolic plea,
which If not sufficient, Is at least honest.
The hour was early, and he oversight
himself. But It would be at least inn
proper IN him to neglect the acknowledge
ment of one Of the handsomcst Collatons
which has at any time brought pleasant
testimony that, "that though absent he
was not forgotten, SO, friend Charley
here's to the good health and happy life
Of yourself and Mrs. II, You have done
this lone sidewalk man many kindly acts
which II would be lnelcgant to forget
Let the winds blow aud the world wag.
May It be well with you for many u
year.
You are very much mistaken IL you
think the iron boom has collapsed
The Galllher land, 60 acres, midway

transpltcd there was a bed Of remarks
bly, fine magnetic iron ore on It, aud
few days ago they sold II for $500, ten
times The cost. The purchaser, am
told, was Capt. Frank lmbodcn, Of Salt
vile. Gen. lmbodcn Ia yet at Raleigh,
and will be ut Bristol about the 9Th. |
understand matters touching our n. G,
are looking roscatc In the old North
state. Heretofore Danvillc, Petersburg
and Richmond have about monopoll1cd
intercourse between these two states.
Tuckahocs and 1nrheels have had Tie
state kisslnc TO Themselves. Ina short
time the n. q. will bring n. G. TO the
doors Of q. w, va, and y. Tenn. The !
rich mineral region of w. NJ G. viii |
