A German Village Wedding.

The village church, where the we'd
hing took place, is on the top of little
craggv hill. The church is very old,
built of gray stone, with square tower
and an odd-shaped belfry. The stony
path led through the graveyard to the
church door, The chime of bells rang
out with decorous joy. Let all
things be done decently and in order, "
they seemed to ring; mot too fast; we
are staid people and take time for ali
things" The interior of the church
was cold and severe looking, the walls
whitewashed, but the galleries painted
pink and blue. The long, narrow win
dows seemed set in stone arches, sc
thick was the wall. The pulpit above
the altar was as high up as the galleries,
so that the minister breaches far above
the heads of his flock. On one side OF
the altar hung portrait OF Luther on
the other of Melancthon.
The wedding took place at midday.
First came troop of little girls, each
carrying in her hand tiny punches OF
flowers. The little things, with their
braided hair (no hats) and dresses
almost touching the floor, looked as
quaint and demure as the little women
in the old-fashioned picture books. Next
came the bride and one bridesmaid, then
three bridesmaids walking together,
lastly the groom and groomsmen. The
bride and bridesmaids entered a pew to
the left, the groom and party one to the
right. All knelt in prayer. Then the
bride went by herself to the altar, laid
on one side white silk handkerchief,
a sprig OF rosemary and lemon! /! /
wondered to myself if the lemon was
emblematic of the sournesS of married
lfe She then returned to the pew. |
noticed that there was on the other side
of the altar another white silk handker-
chief, sprig of rosemary and new
Bible. The choir sang quite long hymn.
The minister went up in the pulpit and
preached a sermon of about twenty
minutes The choir sang another hymn.
A little boy placed long, low stool be-
fore the altar The minister descended,
and the bride joined the groom at the
altar, the bridesmaids and groomsmen
remaining in the pews,
At the close of the ceremony the min
ister presented the groom with the new
Bible. The choir sang still another
hymn. Then the bride returned to her
pew and the groom to his and said their
prayers, after which the groom and
groomsmen left the church and were
not joined by the bride until they were
quite out in the churchyard. 1t seems
the silk handkerchief, lemon and rose
mary on one side of the altar were fol
the minister On the other the gift was
for the organist - Cor. Baltimore San.

TOulon, the Plague.Stricken City.

Toulon, at present the chief town of
an ACCOMPLISHMENT of the Var, is stu
ated on the northern shore of bay
which runs for some distance in a north
westerly direction into the French main
land. To the north, high chain of
hills runs half round the bay; at the
south, the entrance to the harbor is pro-
tected by lofty promontories from east
erly or westerly winds. 1t is guarded
from the south wind by peninsula
running across the entrance, to the
north of which are the great roads.
Close to the town are two large basins,
formed by magnificent quays and moles,
called the old and new port, the eastern
one for vessels of war and merchant
men, the other kept exclusively for the
navy, having been greatly enlarged in
1856. The depth of the outer roads is
sixty feet, that of the inner roads aud
the basins thirty feet. SO that fully
equipped vessel of the line can float at
ease in them. Since 1884 the plan of
enlarging the town and harbor has been
frequently discussed, but it was not
really undertaken till 1886, being at
that time highly unnecessary, for the
flourishing town of Marseilles was at
tracing all the trade, and Toulon grad
ually sinking as a commercial port.
The enlargement Of the town, however.
was not set about till 1856, and that
through the extension of the war har-
Dor, which was disproportionate 20
Louis Napoleon's rapidly created fleet
While the war harbor formerly could
only hold thirty ships of the line, it is
now spacious enough for $50 ironclad
frigates. Toulon has endured repeated
siegcs, which nearly all resulted Vnfor-
tunately for the town. In 500 i: was
captured by the Goths; in 7S9 torn from
the Saracens by Charles Martel, but
thrice besieged and desolated by them
in 1170, 1896 and 1911. In 1894 it was
occupied by the troops of Charles ",
under the Constable de Bourbon. In
the Spanish War of Succession it glori-
ously withstood the siege of Prince Eu-
gene, who. after twenty-four days of
heavy fighting, with 10000 men, was
compelled to retreat. The last tragic
event of this nature was the siege and
recapture of the city in 1898 by the Re-
publicans, for the convention behaved
with even unusual ferocity. When
Toulon surrendered to the English it
had %, 900 inhabitants; a short time aft
er the departure of the latter it was re-
duced to 1000; now its population has
reached 70,510 But Toulon has also
suffered equally by pestjlences, which
ragged with unparalleled fury. Since the
commencement of the fifteenth century
the town has been visited no less than
nine times by the plague, the worst be-
ing in 1721, the last time it made its
appearance. Boston Transcript.

aggravating circumstances, was COM
mitted by Justice Of the Peace, and a
barrister who was formerly solicitor,
by contriving the marriage of ward,
with fortune of thirty thousand pounds,
to schoolmaster in Islington. He was
for this serious offense not only sent to
prison for five weeks, but was struck
out of the commission as Justice of the
Peace, and prohibited from practicing
at the bar. In the leading case Of Eyre

for marrying an infant, who was peer,
to Lady Susannah Noel; which, though
not to his disparagement, was done
without the consent of the court or his
guardian. In another case, that of
Baseley VS.. Baseley. it appears that
Mrs. Baseley-formerly Miss Anne
Wade-was on the death of her father
in 1906, heiress to real and personal
property of large amount. She was
made ward of Chancery at an early
age; in her seventeenth year she was
taken away by Mr.. Baseley, a young
gentleman of no property. and who had
no previous acquaintance with her or
her family; but he obtained possession
of her by the aid of her governess and
servants, and in gross contempt of court.
He and the young lady went to Scot
land, and were married at Gretna
Green in 1915. and were shortly after
wards again married in the Episcopal
Church of Edinburgh. After residing
for some time in Scotland, petitions
were presented to the Lord Chancellor
on their behalf. but his lordship would
not listen to any application until the
ward was brought within the jursdic-
ton of his court. Shortly afterwards,
Mr.. Baseley presented himself in court,
when Lord Eldon committed him 10
jail, where he was kept until Mrs. Base
ley attained her age of twenty-one.--
