LORD AND LADY SALISBURY.
The Courtsllfp and Marriage OF the
Present Premier of England.

The Courtsllip and Marriage OF the
Present Premier OF England.
One gray morning in the mid-spring
ut twcnty-eight years ago there was
wedding in the little chapel at Aid Hill,
Bcrks. All London knew the bride.
For three seasons the belle of Wcstmin
stcr. for three years the bcauteous won
der OF society, Georgiana Anderson was,
the brightest and faircst of the ladies of
the court. But she was coqucttc, and
had drawn many lovers by the silkcn
charm so we'll discovered by witchcry
and blue eyes and sunny hair. Many a
wooer had woocd in vain, for the daugh-
ter of Sir +. Hall Anderson was an heir.
css as we'll MS a beauty, and estate of
land is the finest setting that estate Of
beauty can demand. or some of the
most selfish Of the admirers it could
have been said That they were brilliant
men and worthy Of the most coveted
honors Of royalty, and not once or twice
the lady might have married we'll had
she not had an adviser who knew man
as man deserves to be known. Miss
Opic. the celebrated queen Of society
of ten or fifteen years before, was Gcor-
ginna Alderson's aunt and chaperonc,
and Miss Opie knew better than most
other women Of the time how to distin-
guish. between heart and pretensc She
had kept the moths from her niece,
but while she was seeking an ideally
eligible man. her charge had given her
hand to Robert Cecil.
Miss Opic was dismayed. Cecil was
not man after her liking. Though the
son Of an Earl he was younger son and
anything but popular with his family.
There had been quarrel and fratcr-
nal scandal and, to the horror Of the
family at Hatfield House, he had had to
earn his own living. Beginning rs
journalist, he had shown marked ability
till he was regular contributor to the
Quarterly. For three years he had
been in Parliament for Stamford, where
he continued to sit for fifteen years to
come, but where he made no consc-
quential mark. 1t was no wonder that
Miss Opie was displcascd with the
match. With but few rcdeeming
qualities socially, the young man was Mt
best book worm and so serious and
quiet that he was esteemed dull. But
the niece had felt the brain Of the &C.
ellis and, though nine out Of ten thought
as did the aunt, the nine and the aunt
came to witness the ceremony.
1t was a matter-of-fact wedding, as
English countryside weddings arc apt
to be. There was the gay company
filling the chapel, and the white ribbon
that kept the common herd of acquaint-
ancc from the chosen many Of the rami-
ly. There was at 10 the soft low notes
Of the wedding march from Lohengrin,
the quartettc Of ablc-bodicd ushers
passing up the central aisle and parting
the silken barrier. There were two lit
tie girls strewing the aisle with white
flowers from their aprons, and four
bridesmaids behind them. There was
the bride on her fathers arm with thc
Queens bouquet in her hand There
was the groom meeting them at the
chancel rail. There was the ceremony
and the blessing and the congratulations.

lie took Byron back with him and
left to himself was soon so absorbed in
its pages as to render him oblivious to
surrounding objects. At length, look
ing up from his book and glancing
around, he discovered no familiar object
whatever; everything appeared entire
ly different from anything he had ever
seen, for he had nevei been "a Cosey
before. All around htn were cedars
and as far us the eye Gould penetrate
were nothing but cedars. An owl fit
ted by him and presently he heard the
coo Of dove. Alas he was lost in CO.
scy.
Here he wandered at raudom, not
knowing whittier. Looking up he saw
the sun, now in the west instead Of the
cast and as he wandered on other
glimpscs showed it TO be moving up
ward instead Of downward, and back to-
ward the east instead Of the west. He
wandered OH thus, and still he wander
cd on till time for it to bc far in the after
noon but instead the the sun had gone
back to the same place where it had
been when he set out that morning with
his little sister.-Hc looked down at
himself and thought he was growing
smallcr.-Alas had the world begun to
move backward
At length happily he disccrncd an
opening and following up eagerly he
presently found himself at fence, over
which was big road. In field near
by were some negroes hoeing Gotten.
Seeing them he quickly asked who was
their master. Squire Hunter, answered
they. Squire Hunter repeated h..
You certainly must be mistaken. No,
said they, there's the El5crton road and
this is just above Bethlehem church.
Great Lord, muscd he, this is seven
miles from my home, and how in the
world did get over the creek without
knowing it.
| He now got over the fence and start
cd in the direction he thought down the
road toward the academy. After he had
gone short distance he met wagon,
which he hailed, and asked the driver
where he was going. "To Watkins
Landin," answered he. There was n
h:. Watkins living near the boy, and he
rad never heard Of any other; SO. he
nnnarurally asked, "Mr Daniel Watkins
landing No: Judge Blackwcll's," re-
piled the driver. ''But You are going
toward Eberton, amt you," inquired
the boy. "No," replied the driver,
'.you arc gcing toward Elberton ,:
''Alas unused the boy, IS that spell of
enchantment still on me, and shall 60
on this way NIL my life, seeing things
just opposite from other people He
turned back. however, at the direction
CT the driver. and in due time came no
in sight Of The academy. Everything
seemed to turn around to him and come
right. The sun appeared in its natural
position in the west, and the boy could
now see that he was going from Elber-
ton instead Of toward it. The teacher
had just turned ont school and the ru-
pills surprised to see our adventurcr
come up from that direction focked
around him and drew out recountal Of
his wonderful adventure. Here we will
leave him till another time.-Elbef ton

TROUBLE AMONG THE CADETS.
What 1t Was and How 1t Has Been Rem.
edjed.

AS stated in the Ne,vs and Courier
yesterday, the executive committee Of
the board Of visitors Of the South Car
olina Military Academy, consisting Of
Gen. johnson Hagood, Gen. A. NJ. Man
igault and Gen. C.I I. Walker, has been
in session for several days during the
present week to consider, among other
matters, certain questions Of discipline
that have recently arisen in the Acade-
my. The Columbia Register of yester-
day published the following in regard
to this matter:
"From trustworthy sources we regret
to learn Of very serious condition Of
things existing at the Military Academy
i'll Charleston. 1t seems that Cadet
Schirmer, Of Charleston, was recently
promoted to be an officer Of the Cadet
corps on account OF meritorious charac-
ter, and as soon as the order was pro-
mulgated number Of the Cadets, em-
bracing the large majority, openly re-
fused to obey and respect the newiy-ap-
pointed officer. Cadet Schirmer, it is
said, is one Of the most promising of the
corps, and has always had fine record
as soldier and gentleman, command
ing the respect of tho officers of tho
Academy during his entire connection
with the institution. About year or
more ago it became his duty to report
two or more Of his fellows for serious
breach Of discipline, for which they
were subsequently,, dismissed. His part
in the affair, it is supposed, made him
obnoxious to the large body Of his fel-
low Cadets, who, with the exception of
some twenty or twenty-five, have rigo-
rOusly taboocd him. Notwithstanding
this, he has been so dilligent and pro-
ticient as to have won the appointment,
the announcement of which was made
the occasion for the rebellion against
the authorities OF the Academy re-
ported"
When Cadet Schirmer was made SER
geant Of the corps of Cadets, thirteen Of
the twenty-cight officers of the corps
sent in their designations to the super
intendcnt Of the Academy The super.
intendent refused to accept their rcsig-
nations. The officers then informed the
superintendent that they would contin-
uc to serve until the matter could be
laid before tho hoard Of visitors. The
board met and after full investigation
compromised the matter in this way:
The Cadet officers have Withdrawn their
letters Of resignation, and at heinstance
Of the executive committee of the board
Of visitors will prefer charges against
Cadet Schirmer, who will be tried in the
regular way at tho meeting of the board
of visitors in July.
There has been considerable feeling
among the Cadets in regard to this mat
ter. 1t was stated on Thursday that
the entire corps of Cadets. with ono cx-
ception, had pledged themselves to sus-
tain tho Cadet officers. The proper
course has been takcn in the matter,
however, and it is expected that the
trouble will be settled in manner that
will be satisfactory to all concerned.

shown that he was receiving a less sal
