gave his consent to the marriage. The
combined ages Of the twain 10 only q
few years more Than The lawful matrimo-
nial age in the grand old Common
wealth. The bride is not volup'uous
looking girl, and, in fact, resembled
child that had. not passed the spanking
age, and the groom was not much ber
superior in; this respect. The bride Was
modestly and neatly attired, and resem-
bled little girl that VAS dressing for
her first attendance at children's party
Tie twain were evidently quite fond Of
each other. There Was none OF that
STYLE OF love there is generally display

pronounced them husband and wife they
faced each other for 9 moment. and sud.
denly the childish groom bashfully en-
braced his diminutIve bride. 1t was q
rather strange sight. and looked more
like childfen's mock marriage than
solemn reality. The couple are not
wealthy, and their parents are only IN
ordinary financial circumstances. sqa,e

Impressions During a Battle.

A recent writer thus speaks OF his &
perience and feelings in a battle: ut is

assume an affirmative without affording
time for rebuff First. was dispelled the
lifelong illusion that battles were the or
derly moves Of a game of chess Cam.
paigns may be likened, as I have heard
them, to the manipalations OF that
game; bat battles are made up OF o sc.

tracted, according TO the ingenuity OF
the commander, and the expertness of
his officers and men. The results OF q
faro hank can he calculated with as much
accuracy as The results Of battle field

in all games Of course, inclining to those
who are most cool, and therefore the
most likely to perceive advantages -

changed cannon balls. bullets. bayonet
thrusts, and saber strokes, and literally
there is 'nobodv hurt the loss in killed
and wounded on our side being about

A Republican Farmer on the Tariff
Letter from Illinois Farmer in Chicago Tri.
bune.
II .s possible that the farmers OF llli.
nois are little rusty on the tariff ques-
tion, for We fail 10 see where We derive
any henef' from "high protection" as
advocated by the Eastern msnufactur-
ers. Here is what puzzles us: I wish
to buV suit Of clothes. A merchant
from England offers me suit for Si5
and agrees to take In exchange wheat
at 81 q bushel A merchant from Mas.
sachusetts calls and ssks me $50 for the
same suit, ana will allow me hut 81 per
bushel for nv wheat should be thick
headed enough to trade with the man
from England, and use the other fifteen
bushels to purchase other neeessaries
with. We understand that the supply
and demand Of the world fix the prices
Of our agricultural products; that the
farmers OF Illinois must compete with
the farmers of Russia and India in the
markets Of Europe; and, after being
forced to compete with the farm labor.
ers of those countries, wecannot UNDER
stand why special tax Of fifty to 100
per cent. should be lsld on as farmers
to assist the manufacturers Of this
country in competing with the manufsc-
turers OF England. The theory OF
excepting our money at home" msy be
all right as theory, but, alter having
balanced nv accounts on the FIRST of Jan
nary. and finding that. ter having set
tied all of my manufacture and store
bills, I have hardly enongh left 10 carry
my family through tho winter, 10 is OF
no consolation TO read IN New York
paper that the woolen manufacturers OF
the East are paving dividends OF from
thirty TO forty per cent, and that the
iron masters doubled their capital out OF
their protected profits; and that the
protected lumber harons of Michigan
are growing enormously rich, while their
workmen continue poor.
