The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1881-02-16

aoie other ornaments were appropriately
placed and the whole formed perfect
little paradise upon earth, 30 far as beauty
Is concerned. The walls of the dining
room were also covered with pictures and
flowers and wreathes, but the chlet attrac.
ton here, aside from the piano
upon which stood collection
of magnificent presents, was the table,
| which stood in the centre and was spread
in most gorgeous manner. There were
California grapes, bananas, oranges, rasins,
cakes, jellies, melanges, wines, preserves
and flowers, all in appropriate vessels, or so
arranged as to be a very pleasing and GER
talnly tempting sight. In the centre Of
the table great pyramid arose nearly to
the ceiling, constructed OF variety of
fancy eatables, etc. In one corner stood
the piano and next oft table, both of
which were almost hidden from view by
the presents placed closely together aud
forming an array of glittering and fancy
carved gold, silver and glassware, such as
lsseldom seen upon occasions OF this kind
and to describe which, we feel Ourself to
be utterly incompetent, but must ask the
reader to be content with the mere list as
given in conclusion. From nine
o'clock till twelve, the invited
guests came and went in throngs, all
discussing the great event, eating and
drinking from the sumptuously spread
table and heaping congratulations upon
the young man and wife, and then all went
home and the festivities were ended.
The brides dress was composed of
cream white satin; style, princess cn.train,
with diagonal puffings of satin and elbow
sleeves the trimmings were of elegant I'm.
ported Honition lace and white bug,c
fringe, and the ornaments consisted Of
solitaire diamond ear rings and pearl neck
lace. A veil Of white illusion, with the
usual orange blossoms and other flowers,
completed the outfit; the groom wore the
usual black suit and white kid gloves.
The bridesmaids were also dressed in |
white and the groomsmen in black. The |
ushers, who, by the way were Messrs. Phil. |
Barclay, Harry Hughes, Eugene Ellis and |
Ed Mccullough, were also dressed in
black, with white gloves and wore
beautiful little nosegay on the left lapple
