This is the first time since we have

we feel at loss to give expression
to our surprise; and but for the fact
that these distinguished gentlemen
are both tirst-class practical printers
we should perhaps have been em-
barrassed; as it was, they made us
feel perfectly easy by making them
selves quite at home. We are glad
they have come To our county, and
trust, though their stay was short,

Advice 10 an Espcctant
Bride,

The following was recently adj
dressed to lady about to become a
bride, by a gentleman acquaintance,
in acknowledgement of the receipt
of her wedding cards. 1t gains a
melancholy interest from the fact
that the young wife died soon after
her marriage:
81 am holding some pasteboard in
| my hand, Addiel--thrce stately
ipluckings from the bush of ceremony
| am gazing upon card and a name
"A name with whick your life be-
gan, a name With which your throb-
bing heart was lost. There is moth
ing strange about that card. The
maiden sign still looks up from it,
calm. and customary, as it lies in
many a formal basket. ] am gazing,
too, upon a card where the nearer
parent tells the world she will be
Sat Home," one day, and that is
nothing new. But there is another
card, whose mingling there puts a
tongue of fire into this speechless
pasteboard, enamel!ing fate on com
monplace 1t tells us that feeling is
maturing into destiny, and that these
cards are but the pale heralds of a
coming crisis; when a hand that has
pressed friends hands and plucked
flowers shall close down ON him to
whom she shall be friend and flower
forever after. | have sent you a few
flowers to adorn the dying moments
of your single life. They are the
gentlest types of delicate and dur
able friendship. They spring up by
our side when others have deserted
| it, and they will be found watchdog
over our graves when those who
should cherish have forgotten us. 1t
seems meet to me that past so calm
and pure as yours should expire with
kindred sweetness about it; that
flowers and music, kind friends
and earnest words, should consecrate
the hour when sentiment is passing
Into sacrament. The three great
stages of our being are the birth, the
bridal, and the burial. To the first
we bring only weakness-for the last
we have nothing but dust. But here,
at the alter, where hfe ioins life, the
pair come throbbing up to the holy
man, whispering the deep promise
that arms each witt, the others heart.

Distraction Of SfcnSHer'> Sash,
Deer and Blind Factory and

Last Saturday fire broke out in
the Immense sash and blind factory Of
Mr.. S. Spcnglcr in Nicksburg, perhaps
the largest and most complete estab-
lshment Of the kind in the South,
which, together with large quantity
Of lumber and finished work, was
totally DESTROYED. 1t was valued at
S50, 900 aud Only Insured for $4,000
The flames were communicated to sew
eral adjacent residences, which were
also DESTROYED, one of which also be-
!onscG to Mr.. Spengler, while several
Others were more or less damaged.
The conbUstiblc nature of the ma
,crial in the factory, and the fact that
the fire broke out in q portion Of tie
building where no hands happened to
be at work at the time, rendered i,
absolutely impossible for the frcmer
to save the building OF coniine tn,
fire to its. although they worked hero
ically aud faithfully.
The loss to Mr. Spcnglcr is very
heavy, while the want of materia
furnished by his factory will be fell
by builders in a large portion Of Miss

that this want will only be temporary
