week from Gov Hamilton, his entire wheat
crop of last year. II was delivered at the B. l.
O. Depot in lots of 1900 to 1000 bushels. The

Democratic party of State. But, all wisdom

Yesterday morning there were gathered at
the residence of Mrs. Sarah Bowling, on Ohio
street, about seventy persons including the
near relatives and friends of Miss Jennie Dow
ling and Mr.. Robert Digges, who were married
at eleven O. clock by the Rev. Mr.. Durham, OF
ST. Stephen church.
A more delightful wedding, by reason Of all
the surrounding circumstances has rarely, if
ever, taken place in the city. Those present
included the younger friends who rejoiced on
the happy occasion in the life Of the couple
who were to be made man and wife, and the
older relatives and friends, who gave their
hearty good will to the beautiful bride and the
young gentleman who gladly promised to
love and protect her through life. The parors
Of the residence presented a joyous scene, made
delicious by the odor of many handsome hural
displays and cheerful with the pleasant con-
versation of mutual acquaintance. AT few
minutes after eleven the Rev. Mr.. Dunham took
a position in the main parlor, were he was
Joined by the wedding couple and members Of
The immediate families. The bride wore silk
null, with Marechal Neil roses. The groom
was a,tired in the conventional dress suit.
Miss Dowling's beauty, which is of that type
that mingles the perfection of physical attrac-
tiveness with mirror of charming character,
never pleased her admirers 50 much as II did
Yesterday. She was the ideal bride and when
her clear voice was heard responding to the
sacred promises, all present appreciated the
prize that had fallen to the lot of the bride

CALCULATIONS and we'll wishes OF those present
and then wedding breakfast.
Mr. and Mrs. Digges left on the $50 train
for Poughkeepsie, N. Y, to visit the brides
sister, Mrs. Burt, who accompanied them,
whence they will go to Mr.. Digges' former
home in Maryland, returning here in about
two weeks.
We clip the aboye from the Terre Haute
Express of the sth inst. Mr.. r. Dudley Digges,
the happy groom in the ceremony is native
of our county and perhaps as widely and
favorably known as any young man ~ho has
been raised amongst US. He left here little
over three years ago to seek his fortune in the
far West After short stay in Texas, he
removed to Terre Haute Indiana, and that
place he adopted as his home and there he has
prospered. He and his happy bride arrived
here on last Friday morning and have since
been sojournin. with his brother, DR.. John I.
Digges. He has received the congratulations
of his numerous friends in this neighborhood
from whom he has met with a warm reception.
Dudley is a genial, whole souled and warm
hearted fellow, and although he has forsworn
bis native home and set up his gods on a new
heath he will never be forgotten here, and
will always meet with warm and welcome
reception from the friends of his boyhood days
whenever be sees 6t to visit US Mr.. aud Mrs
Digges expect to leave the county to-day on
the return trip to Terre Haute, which place
will be their future home.
