PLATTSVILLE.
wELLER-GREGORY.

Some things are getting to be of rare occurrence in Plattsville. Of such was the delightful affair which called togeth- CT pleasant company at the residence of Misses Gregory, Tuesday evening, 26th, where the bond hymeneal was formed which brings George Weller and Miss Minnie Gregory into the nearest and most blessed relation of life ;which takes away from Miss Minnie her name and, from Plattsville, one of it's highly es- teemed young ladies and gives to our neighbor, Trumbull,a a lady which it may we'll appreciate. At 6 15,in the brilliant ly illuminated parlor, surrounded by rel atives of the bride and groom, from Bridgeport, Black Rock, Trumbull, Fairfield and Easton, the ceremony was solemnized, Rev T. k. Gilbert officiating. The bride did, indeed, look charming, dressed in dove cOlored cashmere and ot- toman silk, with a lovely bouquet of white rosebuds, carnation pinks and smilax; and the groom, dressed in black cutaway diagonal suit, bore look of su- preme satisfaction. A bountiful collat- ion was served about o'clock, which was partaken of in such manner as man. ifested abundant testimony to quantity, quality and the most delightful sur roundings. After the guests had depart ed, which was not until many had spok- en their convictions, pronouncing it a most pleasant occasion throughout, Mir and Mrs Weller started for their home in Trumbull, whither the best wishes of a host of friends attend them. The follow ing beautiful and useful presents were bestowed:
 Set of napkins, Frank Seeley.

The Sermon

The text, my hearers, is found in the words of the poet;
 Strange we never prize the music Till the sweet voiced bird is flown"
 There is in many minds an unrest at the present life and desire to go out in to other life and work. How often does home which has many charms seem a prison to the weary matron! How many times does the father complain of the children's noise! Yes, how does patient, quiet grandma, with her hair silvered for Heaven, seem to be a burden of care But what would it be, should the home and it's sacred memories and associations be taken from the wife? How the sum- light would fade out of the face of the father were there no boisterous feet run ming to meet him. How we should miss grandma with her loving care of the children, her wisdom and words of guid- ance in times of sickness. It is strange that mankind cannot learn to prize their blessings while they have them. It is sad, too, that we learn the value of our friends, Oftentimes, only when we stand by their silent forms and see their emotionless faces beneath the coffin lid. Death comes, then, not only as the bear CT of grief, but also as the messenger who warns us of future loneliness and chides us for not appreciating past blessings. There was a thought in the old Epicurean doctrine which our Christian century may emnhasiza with nrofit.
 "Live while you live"
 That is, take the highest enjoyment in the present. Appreciate highly every friend, every kind deed, every blessing which God sends as sunshine into your life. Remember in your own life that you are ''to pass this way but once." Sc see all the beauty of the path and do all the good you can while passing along If you do live we'll in the present, and en, joy the music of life, having, all the time, your life anchored in the love ot God, you will save yourself many vain regrets and find much more music on the way of life. For
 l The world is full of music
 | To the ever open ears;
 | The song of birds, the rush of rills, | The-winds in tree tops and in hills The music of the spheres.
