THE FOURTH RINGING OF THE MAR
RIAGE BELLS.

Ii marriages are really made in heaven,
then an old couple down in Edinboro, Pa,
have been giving the celestial hosts good
deal of trouble to keep the elysian knot we'll
tied. Mr.. PRENTICE Ross and his wife have
been divorced from each other three times
and they have just married again. When
first married they were ardent young lovers.
and as they joined hands in genuine true
lover style they honestly swore each to the
other that there was no power in death to
tear their names apart. But in this instance
life was stronger than death, for in less than
twelve months they discovered a lack of con-
geniality and were divorced. Two years had
not elapsed until PRENTICE felt assured that
all earthly happiness was lost to him forever
unless be could win back the love OF BETSEY,
and putting on his Sunday clothes went to
see her. The interview resulted in fresh
pledge of love and the two were again united,
and so happy were they and so full their
cup of bliss they asked no brighter
heaven. For nearly three years this
time they managed to hold together,
but in the two years of PRENTICE's widow
hood he had learned economy, and so per-
fectly that his wife accused him of parsimony.
The purchase of a spool of thread by BETsEY,
for which she paid the extravagant sum of =
cents, brought on another crisis in the matri-
monial career and asunder went the bonds a
second time. Five years rolled by and fate
brought the paths of the tickle lovers together
again.
s'They came together
Like some rivers abundant tide,
winch art or accident hath forc'd aside,
The we'll springs of affection gushing DER,
Back to their natural channels flow once more"
And so the marriage ceremony was per-
formed again. The course of true love,
however, was again interrupted by Mrs. Ross
running up an extravagant grocery bill. At
his age the last corruption Of degenerate
man-avarice-had become disease with
PRENTICE, and he loved no music but a
dollars chink. So he insisted upon keeping
his wife down to starvation point. The
weakness of the old miser was well known in
the town and the boys took him out one cold
night and rolled him over in the snow until
he Was nearly frozen to death. BETSEY Ross
could stand the miser's stinginess, but she

welded to man who would submit to such
indignity and the third time yi,,calo was de-
creed. And now at the advanced age of
20 years these foolish old people for the
fourth time take up the burthen of life to-
gether. As they are pretty well down the
hill it is'to be hoped that they will keep
hands locked until they sleep together at the
foot. If they do not they will at least find it
economy to contract for marriage licenses at
wholesale rates.

TOPEKA, Kan. May 18.-Reports received
here from thirty five counties in Western Iowa;
forty eight counties in Eastern Nebraska; fifty
six counties in Western Missouri and sixty light
counties in Kansas, which is solid territory four
hundred miles north and SOUTH and three hun
dred miles east and west. and which embraces
a larger portion of the wheat belt of the West,
show that the wheat prospect in the counties
of Iowa and Missouri is 66 per cent less than
the crop of last year; in Nebraska GO per cent.
and in Kansas So per cent. less. The delay
in planting corn is twelve days in Iowa and Ne
braska, and twenty one days in Kansas and Mis-
souri,. About one-third of the corn crop of Kan
sas has been planted and half of it will have to
be replanted A noticeable fact is that corn is
selling in this city for from forty to forty three
cents, while at several points in this State it
sells for upward of soc. The farmers of this
State look forward to an Indifferent corn crop,
and, as a consequence. are holding old corn. 1t
is safe to say that no more old corn will be sent
from this State this year. VIM Sims, secretary
of the State Board of Agriculture, reports that
the present year at this time, presents the worst
wheat prospect known in years, not only in this
S tate, but as far as his correspondence reaches.

Wright refused to turn over the books and funds.
The council decided CASTOR eligible, and ordered
Wright to turn over the Office and appurtenances.
Five different days We're designated by Wright
for the transfer, but he always failed to material
