Orderly Set Of People,"

The Beverly, N. j., Banner Of sat'lr'
day says:
e 1t was a novel sight 10 our residents
to see the large steamer Republic lying
at our wharf on Thursday, the boat
having brought over 1000 excursion
lists to Beverly Park, the occasion being
tho annual picnic of the Union NJ. f.
Sunday school of Wilmington, Del.
The boat left there about O'Clock IN
the morning and arrived here about II.
A large number walked about town
and expressed themselves pleased with
tho CITY and surroundings. Judging
from the expressions of the visitors,
the sight of the cove and river bank en-
raptured them. The party left tor
home about 4.3O o'clock, and q more
orderly set of people could not be wish.

The giving Of the marriage fee IL one
of the most awkward things In the
marriage ceremony. 1t has been known
to be performed by the bridegroom, who
puts into the minister's hands pair OF
white kid gloves, with half eagle in
each finger; or, since the golden era,
the greenbacks will be enclosed in q
nice envelope; or, as Is most common,
the important tribute will be stealthily
left in the minister's possession at part.
ing, under pretense Of shaking hands.
The reverent and honest way to do
this thing is, perhaps, to conform TO the
rules in the English Prayer Book as
"The man shall give ring, laying
the same upon the book, with the &C.
|customed duty to the priest and clerk: "
But in such weddings a. occur in the
private house of the clergyman, the
ways of doing this thing are various.
One fellow took me into . corner, say
ing he "had something of great import
ance to communicate. y" The substance
of the communication was, " that he
happened to be out Of money al the
time, land he begged me to " trust
him.
How much was the damage?'
another asked.
"You have done me great favor,
so here is quits, said another.
An honest sailor had the grace to in
quire beforehand:
What's the fee for marrying me to
this girl?"
Answer:
Zone dollar, according to law, and q
Quater of a dollar for clerks fee for re.
cording The marriage"
"Shiver my timbers" said Jack;
have not got but twenty-five cents; but
heave ahead, and marry meas far at
that gOes"
Another sailor asked the like ques
tion, and interrupted the clergyman AZ
soon as he got t. the recording, SAY
ing:
" Do the splicing, but hang the record
and take the dollar"
! might tell of other incidents II
weddings, pathetic and amusing.
The fellow who sneaked into marriage
without paying "the accustomed duty
was curious bpoClmou' DOING ~
terrupted according to the form in tn
Prayer Book, /" wilt thou have thi
women to|be thy welded wife, to live to-
gether after Gods ordinance, in tn
holy estate OF matrimony?" ETC., HI
broke in:
ITO be sure; that's fact"
But heing admonished to say, III will,
at the end of the series Of questions, h
concluded with an emphatic:
"That's 30; l will"
And, in the betrothal that followed,
being directed to say,"I, Ehenezer, TAX
thee, Hester, to benny welded wife, t

And for thee we deeply mourn,
But while our hearts with grief are river
thou art sa 10 with God In Heaven.
The cause of Christ thou did'st sustain,
Amid the tr ais OF care and pain.

For which thou wilt receive crown.
Thy labor Is done, securely laid

Unheeded DER thy silent dust,

Then from our dusty beds we'll rise,

Dear friends, let US weep no more,
For there yet happier shore,
Where those long parted shall meet agar
Beyond the reach Of grief and pain.
Then let us Wipe our weeping eyes,
And strive TO meet him 10 the skieo.
Then, made unto salvation wise,

CONCERNING
PRICES
AT OAK HALL.

The June prices have been
the subject Of long and care.
full preparation with us, and
they are made now as bar
gains pure and simple, with
no reference whatever to
prices that are past. The
|old cry Of" mark down" has
under recent usage, lost much
OF its power,and we therefore
|igpore it, but demand your
attention to the qualities OF
our clothing, to the tact that
| it is all new, and the remain
ing tact that it Is put at prices
which cannot be matched IN
this or any other city. B"ck
of these assertions we put our
longtime business relations
with the Philadelphia com.
munity as eviden;e that we
may be trusted implicitly.

GREEN CORN FOR PIGS.

In the summer and early fall feeding
of pigs, we have found sweet corn one
Of the best and most convenient KINDS
Of fodder. Pork is made to best advan'
tage by putting the pigs,as soon as they
are weaned from the sow and have
learned to eat milk and meal, into the
pen, and keeping them there under full
feed until they are ready for slaughter
in November or December. With q
good breed Of swine there is no difncul-
~ in making pigs weigh from 25o e
900 pounds, at eight months old. WITH
plenty Of indian meal and SKINNED
milk they will grow rapidly until The
corn Is large enough for cutting. About
the tirst of August this should be given
as an additional ration. The pigs Will
eat the green stalks and leaves with the
greatest relish after the ears have beer
plucked. 1t is an elegant appetizer,
helps the digestion Of more solid food
and promotes the thrift of the animals
Field corn may not be quite SO nutri'
tious, but no better use con be made o.
that after the ears are in milk, than K
cut and feed 1t to fattening swine. Il
costs much less to mskepork insummel
than In cold winter weather.

A PITIFUL PROCESSION.

A Company OF INSANE Veterans from the
Northeast Arrive In this City Kester-
day.
An unusual procession was witnessed on
the streets of this city yesterday afternoon.
1t consisted Of long line of insane soldiers,
thirty -four in number. They were flanked
on either side by lines ofguards. AS tho sad
Gordon passed along the poor follows, most
of whom were Veterans, chartered inces-
sanity and made queer motions with
their hands. They were taken to the
government insane asylum in two Of Knoxs
large express wagons. A REPUBLICAN re-
porter met DR.. Wilmer Of tho asylum while
later and asked him about the insane SOL
diers. He said they came from the north
east, where they had been accumulating for
six months. A squad of twenty-five more
from the west also arrived yesterday.
